he was cornered by Park Policeman w.

Two-Story Suites
Feature New Idea
Apartment House
Designing for Consumer
Principle Works in
Milwaukee.

The fundamental idea Of designing
for the consumer, which has been ap-
piled in practically every large scale
industrial success, will be applied to
housing in the next residential building
era, housing authorities agree. That
this principle works as well in housing,
both from the viewpoint Of tenants and
building owners, as it has in the case
of other industries has been Substan-
TALLY proved in Milwaukee where an
apartment house incorporating new,
revolutionary and patented ideas of de-
sign and construction has a record OF
90 per cent occupancy since its COM
pletion in 1881 in the face of 60 per
cent occupancy in apartments generally.
This particular building has several
novel features. While there are one
story garden apartments on the first
floor, on all floors above, the suites are
two stories in height, with living rooms
dining rooms and kitchens on the lower
floors, and with stairways in each suite
communicating with bed rooms and
bath rooms on the floors above. The
two-story suites are arranged in tiers
throughout the height of the building
The apartments contain all the con-
veniences and features of desirability
found in modern two-story houses.
There are no public corridors on the
bed room floors, the corridor space be-
ing converted into additional room
space.
While apartments of the duplex or
two-story type are not unknown in high
rental buildings, their use in popular
price apartments is a new development,
made possible only by the elimination
of corridors on alternate floors. Apart
ment buildings Incorporating these fea-
lures are now under consideration in a
number of other cities.

DECLINE SHOWN
|NFORECLOSURES
Federal Home Bank Survey
Covers First Part of
Year in Realty.

Real estate foreclosures in the United
States have declined appreclably since
the beginning of this year, according to
a survey by the Division of Research
and Statistics of the Federal Home Loan
Bank Board.
Reports from 660 representative COM
munities in the 48 States, comprising
449 per cent of the total population,
show a total of IS, ,431 foreclosures dur
ing the month of April, 1888. This is
a drop of 162 compared with the figures
for March of this year, 1888, and of
11e1 compared with the January total
of 1852 foreclosures. These figures
include farms and commercial proper
ties as well as hemes.
This decline in foreclosures in the
first four months of this year is con-
trary to the trend for the same period
in previous years, the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board report shows. In
1892 there were 2,295 more foreclosures
in April than in January and even in
the pre-depression days of 1926, fore
closures increased in April by 627 over
the January figure.
The surprising results of this survey
show the headway that is being made
to relieve distress in the mortgage field.
Federal home loan banks whose ac-
tive lending operations began about the
middle of January, 1893 already have
authorized loans amounting to s43,9 ,944,-
1888 to member institutions for home
financing purposes. William F. Steven
son, chairman of the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board, says that home f.
nancing institutions have undoubtedly
been influenced to refrain from FORE
closures through anticipation of the
increased availability of funds by the
extension of the Home Loan Bank Sys-
tenn, as its membership increases and
loans mount. Encouragement inspired
by the legislative measures for home
relief now pending has also contributed
largely toward more optimistic feel
ing on home mortgage problems.

NOISE FROM DRAINPIPE
CAUSED BY VIBRATION
Rearrangement of Installation to
Avoid Contact Usually
Necessary.

It is no longer necessary for the pas
sage of water from the bath room down
the drainpipe in the wall to be heard
all over the house.
This noise is the result of the vibra-
tions caused by the rush OF water being
transmitted to the various wooden parts
of the wall touched by the dralnplpe.
For this reason a simple packing OF in
sulation around the pipe would do no
good.
The only cure for this nuisance is to
rearrange the installation of the pipe
SO it carries down through the wall en-
tirely clear of any contacts. At the
same time insulation can be put around
the pipe, packed carefully so as not TO
form a sound-transmitter to the wooden
parts of the wall.
This problem is one of the points TO
be checked by owners who are making
alterations on their homes. II you are
adding a bath room, by all means IN
sist the drainpipes be placed so as to
avoid this Objectionable noise.

ARCHITECT COUNCIL
WILL EXPAND WORK
Will Fight DETACHMENT Of Build
ings by Ill-Considered Placing
of Signs.

The Architects Advisory Council
composed of a voluntary serving COM
mittee of Washington architects. will
expand its activities during the coming
year to include speciai efforts to pre-
vent the DETACHMENT of dell-designed
commercial buildings by unrelated and
in-considered placement of signs.
This announcement was made this
week by Capt. Hugh P. Dram, director
of inspection for the District, as the
council entered upon its eleventh con-
secutive year of service to Washington.
The prime purpose of the council, it
was explained, Is to improve the char
acter of construction in the Capital by
giving free examination of building ex-
teriors and offering suggestions for
their Improvement
The work is made possible by the
freely given service of representative
architects of the city. Each week a
jury of three architects examines cur
rent plans filed for building permits
and Classics them as approved"
average" or "disapproved" In each
case suggestions are made for improve
ments. and opportunity is given for re-
classification.
Once a month the chairmen Of the
committees meet. review the approved
plans and select those worthy Of spe-
cial commended" award.

Capital Expenditures for
Unemployed.

Investment of few billion dollars
for construction would take up only a
fractional part of the loss in national
income the country is suffering as a
result of continuation of the depres-
sion. in the opinion of William Green.
president of the American Federatlon
of Labor
writing in the current issue of the
ENGINEERING NeWs-Record, Mr.. Green
points out that the 100000 men
and women barred from normal living
will not remain patient indefinitely"
They want work, he says, and there is
no substitute
Back of every worker on the spot
of construction would be a line of work
ers getting out the materials and trans
porting them for use," he asserts.
"Workers for these jobs would be pulled
off the relief lists and their wages
would be spent largely for consumer
goods.
"The construction industry stands
well at the bottom in business activity.
Orders for construction would start the
wheels of our heavy industries and
would start a general even swing up
ward.
"The essential justification for using
national wealth to promote business re-
covery is that 1t Is the most immediate
and practical way of giving the un-
employed an opportunity to become
elf-supporting and thus increase pur-
chasing power. The effect would be
felt along the whole economic struc-
ture; engineers, chemists, laborers, brick
masons, newspaper reporters, tailors,
dentists, etc., all will benefit when
workers are at work on the construc-
ton undertakings, supplying materials
for the job, transporting, making the
things for which the laborers will spend
their wages.
I'VE should not delay action longer"
Mr.. Green emphasizes, but should
initiate a plan of new capital expendi-
lures to put the unemployed to work
in order to restore purchasing power
and to put values back into our invest

SYNTHETIC HOME
MADE OF CHEMICAL
VinyI Resin Offers Solution
to Small House Develop
ment, Says Journal.

The synthetic home, goal of the post
war generation of American chemists,
has been achieved with the aid OF a
man-made chemical known and ne
elected for a century, it is reported in
Industrial and Engineering Chemistry,
journal of the American Chemical So
ciety
From the chemical. vinyl resin, was
constructed virtually every part of the
home, three-room apartment in New
York City, according to DR.. j. G. David
son and H. B. Mcclure of the develop
ment laboratory of the Carbide & Car
bon Chemicals Corporation, joint au-
thors of the report.
Part of the research IN the vinyl
resins was conducted at the Mellon In
stitute, Pittsburgh. Earlier studies
we're carried out Jointly with the Pierce
Foundation. set up in 1917 by the late
John B. Pierce, president of the Amer
ican Radiator Co., for heating and ven-
tilation research.
The resins, according to the report,
are applicable to the construction of
small homes and offer a solution, with
further development, to this phase of
the building industry's problems. Vinyl
resin castings, weighing approximately
$50 pounds each, have been made re-
peatedly and in the course of year
not one cracked, warped, or otherwise
deteriorated. They are the largest ever
developed from the usual plastic mate
rials.
While the apartment was built
soley as a means of demonstrating the
possibility of using this resin for ar
chitectural construction, with no in
tention at the moment to the economic
problems involved" says the report, "it
is of interest that the more the project
is studied the more feasible it becomes
from this standpoint
"The materials from which this resin
is derived are considered inexhaustible
and the larger the scale on which oper.
ations are conducted, the cheaper viii
both the resin and the finished product
become.
'On the basis of performance anG
probable cost. it is reasonable to ex-
pect wide use of factory fabricated
vinyl resin in architectural shapes"

MODERNlZED FURNITURE
Alteration of Victorian Beds
Suggested.

Out-of-date bed room pieces of fur
niture lend themselves particularly well
to modernization. Midvictorian beds
may have the high head board cut
down to the height of the foot board;
or the head board may be removed en-
tirely, and the foot board used as the
head.
A bed of this type can almost inva-
riably have the legs cut down with
good results in appearance. Iron ano
brass beds with little knobs may also
be improved by removing the knobs
and filling the holes with putty before
repaipting.

thought the 1881 assembly broke
all records for the number of at
taches employed and who saw
hundreds of others turned down,
haven't seen anything yet, in the
opinion of Frank Webb, clerk of
the house.
If the number of written appli-
cations means anything then the
1888 assembly, scheduled to open
here April 4, will far outdistance
the session of two years ago,
Webb said. The general unem-
ployment situation and the APP
parent ease with which applicants
obtained jobs two years ago were
given by Webb as additional rea-
sons for his view.

WHOLE CARLOAD
OF SOAP Sent
TO CITY STORES
LEVER BROTHERS. COMPANY
ALSO ARRANGES INTER-
ESTINC DISPLAY FOR EX-
HIBITS BY MERCHANTS


received by the merchants of Key
West and will go on their shelves
in time for today's buying, it was
announced today.
The shipment, one of the larg-
est ever received here, came from
the Lever Brothers company's
plant and includes the nationally
advertised Lux, Lifebuoy health
soap, Rinse and Lux toilet soap.
In connection with the city
wide sale of the products today,
interesting window displays have
been installed in all leading gro
ceries, by H. B. Gillentine, repre-
sentative of dealers service de-
partment. of the Lever Brothers
company and H. Gillentine, Sr.,
Key West representatives of the
worlds largest soap makers. The
display is one of the many ways,
it is said, in which the soap MAX
ers cooperate with local mer-
chants.
Shows Buying Trend
The carload shipment here, it
is said, is a good indication of the
trend in modern merchandising.
The retail grocers of the city
pooled their buying resources to
make possible the purchase of a
solid carload of soap. The carload
shipment cut the cost of handling
and this saving, it is said, is to be
passed on to the buyers through
reduction in the prices of these
soaps. The names of the mer-
chants taking part in the carload
sales event are listed in the adj
vertising on this page.
Each Has Purpose
Each of the four products
serves a separate and distinct pur-
pose. Lux is especially made to
preserve the fresh vibrancy of
delicately colored silks, rayons
and woolens. Fabrics washed in
Lux stay charmingly new-looking
twice as long. Silk stockings re-
tain their elasticity and that
means longer life and better fit.
And Lux in the dishpan gives
beauty care to hands, keeps them
white and soft, at less than a cent
day, it is claimed.
Rinse, housewives everywhere
are said to declare, gives whittier
washes easily and quickly. In the
tub, this granulated laundry soap
soaks cottons and linens whittier
and brighter then they could pos
sibly be scrubbed. The makers of
40 leading washing machines re-
commend Rinse, and $4,000 wash
er statesmen use it to demonstrate
their machines.
Lifebuoy health soap, with its
abundant, penetrating, purifying
lather, is designed to stop body
odor by cleansing the pores of
odor-causing waste. Washing
hands often with Lifebuoy re-
moves germs--helps prevent the
spread of colds and other contact
diseases.
Fragrant, white Lux toilet
soap is the favorite of nine out of
10 beautiful screen stars. These
lovely women of the films always
look young and beautiful. They
never lose their youthful charm
never seem to grow a day older.
Complexion care is their secret
and for years the great majority
of them have depended on Lux
toilet soap for the fascinating,
youthful complexion" the repre-
sentatives declared.
