PAINT CEMENTS

Paint forms a protective ar

gredients, according to Lee
Hart, Washington research chem
ist. Hart says:
paint is composed Of q pig.
ment mixed i'm oil. A pigment
is the powdered form Of some
highly insOlub1, material, such
as the cOlOred compounds Of
lead, iron and the like. Rouge,
for example, is a finely pow.
dered form Of iron oxide. Just
as rouge would not stick to
the cheeks If it were not for
the natural oil in the skin, a
powdered pigment will not ad-

unless it is combined with oil"
Linseed oil is generally used
for this purpose Hart explained
because it has the peculiar prop
erty of being able to absorb oxy
gen from the atmosphere, SO
that the oil itself is changed
into a tough, leathery material,
Thus changed by a ms atura
chemical process, the oil acts
as q cement, holding the metal

declared in a recent address be.

Committee on Housing. He said:
'In England we have stum-

dOx. Our population, like
yours is sIackening UP, and
we have been in the habit
Of dividing the increasing popu-
IatiOn into families and seeing
how it compares with housing.
1--WE have found we were
building houses at two or three
times the apparent increase,
and yet did not supply the
demand. This looked silly,
Then we found that in Eng
land and Wales for the two
census periods (1911-1921) of
20 years the population in
creased IL per cent, but our
families increased 28.S per
cent. That means the popula-
ton is dividing itself into more
families per thousand. In the
main, it means that 50 more
dwellings are required for every
thousand Of people.
much the same thing is 70
ing on here in America. The
population here increased l6
per cent, and the families in
creased 23 per cent. There's a
handsome present for the real
estate men,"
The British governments hous-
ing committee, according to Sir
Raymond, has found that all of
England and Wales could COM
fortably be housed in the greater
London regional area, and not
have to provide more than 10
houses to the acre.

 Spurred on the revelation today that a policeman had been held up and robbed of his gun early Sunday morning, allegedly by members of the gang now under arrest, police were exerting effort to get all known criminals in to headquarters for questioning.
 No Admissions Made
 No admissions, as far as could be learned, have yet been made by any of the quintet of youths pre- sented in city court today, but po- lice appeared confident that they had extremely strong evidence against the lads in question. Mean while, Police Supt. Joseph H.

 Turning to negotiations between small arms manufactures and MIRA, Ney brought out that the industry had not yet accepted a code of fair practice.
 c. K. Davis, president of the Remington Arms company testified, however that his firm was comply ing with section "A of the recovery act and was according to employees a great deal more benefits than they would receive under a code"
 Maj. K. K. V. Casey, Du Pont military sales director. asked the senators whether they considered Kaiser Wilhelm an absolute mon- arch?"
 "Yes,' said Sen. James P. Pope, D., Ida.
 Well" Casey replied, "the Kali ser was quilted as saying that Pres ident Wilson had more power than he had in the war;
 'It doesn't matter much what the Kaiser said,' Pope replied
 Nye asked Du Pont if he be- lieved conscription would set back the production of munitions in war time by six months.
 There would be terrible confu- sion," Du Pont said, because of inexperienced men taking charge of technical plants. We had exam pies of that in the last war;"
 Nye sought to show that the Du Pont company frequently offered to sell powder abroad at lower rates than it quoted to the U. s. government. The assertion was dis puted by Casey and others.
 The chairman read a letter from Casey to William M. Ttylor, the firms Paris agent, on June 30, 1892, quoting prices below our usual export schedule"
 The letter said;
 "Since our sales to the United States total approximately 100000 pounds of rifle powder annually we cannot take the chance of this reduced figure being divulged Therefore, you must arrange some plan in submitting your proposal so that you will be absolutely sat- isfied that the prices quoted will be regarded with the utmost sec recy."

V
 New York, Dec. 2O!-- CUP - The stock market today adjusted itself to declining utility list. While the latter sank to new low ground since 1882, leading indus trial and railroad issues were steady to firm. mercantile issues resumed their rise; and chemicals were strong.
 Trading, however, was light be- cause of the approaching holiday. Indications are the stock exchange will remain open on the Mondays before Christmas and New Years Day, although many commodity markets have, voted to close early on those days.
 Utility selling started at the opening and continued through the session. Consolidated Gas war the most active issue on the board. It made a new low for the present shares at 19 5-8 off 1 IA and then met meager support from short covering. At the low it was off 27 3-4 points from the years high Uf 47 3-S, and off 163 5-S points from the stocks record high of 183 1-4 made in 1929.
 Not only were the New York City utilities. adversely affected by the threat of a competing municipal plant to supply city power needs. but the entire list dropped on threats of the government to bring down rates. And further selling came into the communication shares, notably American Tele- phone & Telegraph which also may come in for rate reductions. New
