generally agreed among themselves
independently perhaps, but neverthe-
less unanimously-that the final word
in body design will be the car that
describes an almost perfect arc from
front to rear-and a not very deep arc
at that
The engineers. however, are agreed
equally that the design of car that
will cut under the wind" as well as
through 1t, would not be considered a
thing of beauty measured by present
day opinions of what constitutes
beauty.
Beauty Only Relative.

is the high-speed highway between
large centers of population which will
make possible the use of the maximum
speed now being built into the auto
mobile engine. The capacity of the
current automobile engine Is from three
to five times the maximum allowed by
law, but the engineers explain, beyond
a certain speed the factor of wind
resistance becomes an important one to
the riding and driving comfort of the
vehicle.
Thus, say the devotees Of ultra
stream-lining, 1t is upon both driving
comfort and the concept Of beauty that
the dream car will have to depend
for its naturalization.

the mysteries of automatic transmits
sions to grasp the idea that these are
regulated to effect shifts at certain car
speeds. There's a broad hint in this
for the woman who never can seem to
make up her mind just when to drop
back to second gear or move ahead to
high. An experienced driver can tell
when the motor will perform best in a
particular gear combination. but the
simplest rule is to watch the speed
ometer and never continue climbing q
hill. in high if the speed of the car
drops below Is. Go on up IN high if
you can attain speed of 25 in second.
The point is to avoid waiting for the
motor to labor before shifting down" "

Actually most players got to four
hearts and went down two. 1t is really
hard-luck hand that you cannot, after
the club fneSSe wins, escape with the
loss Of only two diamond tricks and
one heart trick. In rubber game one

Immediately took their discard of a

clubs to drive out the ace and sec the
stage for forcing declarer.
Mr.. Lenz discarded a spade and led

OF Vests trumps. led small spade to
his own king and led a small diamond.
The king fell to the ace, East led q
club. South trumped, led q spade to

with his queen and led club. Declarer
trumped, won the next two tricks with
the trump ace and the jack Of diamonds
and conceded the last trick.
Three-odd was made by this beaIti-
ful, careful, logical sequence of plays:
Two spade tricks, the queen and ace Of
trumps on trump leads, two trumps by

BANK ACT
HELPS HOME
BUILDING
New Credit System Affords
New Building Chance for
Small Family

A starting point for the eco.
nomic planning called for in the
newly published report of the
Presidents research committee
on social trend is found in the
Federal Home Loan Bank Sys-
TEN. This is the opinion of 1.
Friedlander, Houston, Tex, vice
president of the United States
Building and Loan League. In
the new credit system, says the
building and loan official, lies
the opportunity to start economic
planning at the foundation Of
the social system, the family,
particularly the family in the
home.
A fundamental contribution Of
the Home Loan Bank System to
reformed. and planned economy
for the homecoming and future
home-o owning group is the distinct
blow which the institution deals
to the idea of financing long
time purchases with short time
credit, one of the confusions of
present-day practice, he says.
System Permanent
The fact that the system is a
permanent institution will give it
influence which could not be
exerted by an emergency struc-
ture, Friedlander says, adding:
"FOr the first time the home
owning family and the entire
phase Of our business life
which lies in the pr -duction
and utilization of homes find
themselves the center of at
tentiOn of a national body with
powers to dig into the facts
and make them effective for
the entire nation. Through
the Home Lean Banks we can
start economic planning by
the family and for the family,
at least as far as its funda-
mental need Of shelter is con-
Cerned.
Mistakes of Past
"The normal family wants to
own a home. 1t is essential
that they acquire it according
to economically sound ideas.
If they do not, the rest of
their financial program is
bound to be out of balance.
That is exactly what is wrong
today in thousands of cases.

WARDMAN HOME
FEATURESFOUR
PORCHES
New Brick Group Completed
on Sheridan Street Are .
Placed on Display

Carved out Of the top of a hill
on Sheridan st. N. w. between
Sixteenth Street and Georgia
Avenue, Harry Wardman has COM
pleted for the D. c. Developing
Company seven new six-room resi-
denceS which are outstanding for
the size Of the rooms. What in
times past was called the hall
bedroom" in former homes has
been so designed that it is no
longer the sewing room" of the
house, but a real bedroom that
will accommodate 9x12 rug.
These houses are 20 feet wide
and Al feet deep which is en-
larging materially the dimensions
of this general plan which Mr..
Wardman has popularized during
his 80 years Of Washington resi-
Dental development.
Inside Antennaes
Individuality has been built
into these homes from roof to
cellar. Under the roof are per-
manently constructed concealed
radio antennae brought down to
the living room through the walls
with ground and antennae outlets
available through mirror plates.
All electric light switch plates are
mirrors which never tarnish. In
the cellar is finished recreation
room with log burning fireplace
which is a real adjunct in any
home. The garage is built-in, ac-
cessible from paved alley.
Four porches makes it possible
to enjoy the fresh air from
either the front or rear upper
or lower floors of these houses.
The deck porch opening from
the master bed room Is equipped
with a specially designed storm
door which also serves as a
screen door in the summer with
out changing the entire door.
All windows are equipped with
full length screens making ven
tilation from top or bottom Of
the window possible
Attractive fireplace
Fully trimmed arches in the
living room together with q Spe-
cially designed fireplace for real
log burning adds a touch of re-
finement most often found in
much more expensive homes. The
SpaciouSnesS Of the dining room
permits the use of unusually
massive furniture without over
crowding. The kitchen is equip
ped with cabinets specially de-
signed and built for these par
ticular houses. Electric refrigera-
ton is furnished by an excep-
tionally large eight-foot box.
There is a breakfast alcove in
the kitchen of generous proper
tions.
Expense has not been spared
in the planning and equipping
Of the bath rooms, both Of
which have full tub and shower
baths. Five of the closet doors
in the house are equipped with
full length bevel mirrors. The
closets are exceptionally large
which has been synonymous
with Wardman construction.
The homes are open daily and
Sunday from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m.
