FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.. November al
An island Of solid, frozen ammonia
floating on a hydrocarbon sea is the
new explanation of the famous red
spot on the giant planet Jupiter given
by astronomers.
The red spot, 10000 miles long,
1000 wide, when first seen in 1878. Is
today rounder than then, but just as
vast. There has been no doubt that
1t was some sort Of an island, for
in the So years 1t has moved
floated-some 10000 miles east and
west, and several thousand north and
south.
The evidence for the reality of this
grotesque sort of world on Jupiter is
supplied by the known intense cold
there and the spectroscope, which in
forms astrophysicists Of the nature OF
the substances that reflect sunlight
from Jupiter.
This evidence is set forth by DR.

to simulate the depth of Jupiter
atmosphere and the immense pull OF
gravity upon it, In the Michigan tube
the gas was compressed to As times

DECISION DELAYED
ON WHEAT PACT
Extension Of Agreement Is
Seen Despite Snag Over
Export Quotas.
BY the Associated Press.

BUDAPEST, Hungary, November
21.-A decision on the proposal for a
two-year extension of the interna-
tional wheat treaty was postponed to-
day when Argentina and Canada de-
clined to take action upon the matter
until the question of export quotas
and acreage reduction shall be settled.
The United States, Hungary and
Australia were the only wheat-ex-
porting nations ready today to give an
immediate favorable decision on the
extension of the wheat pact.
Even had Canada and Argentina
been ready to take action, a decision
would have been prevented because
the delegates of Russia, Rumania,
Czchoslovakia, YugoSlavia and Spain
were absent.
There is no opposition to the ex-
tension" said a spokesman, 1T is only
that the procedure now is changed.
Acceptances are inevitable and the
pact can be extended even If export
quotas are abandoned"
Questions of export quotas and acre.
age reduction for the two years will
be taken up later this week. The
mere extension of the pact. how
ever, means that importing nations
adhering to it continue to be bound
by their pledge to reduce tariffs or
wheat if and when the average price
of London uarcels is maintained fol
16 weeks at 63 gold cents bushel
The average foI this month is ex.
pected to be about 43 gold cents.

slip cover of chintz. or it can be
made ultra-smart by putting on
modern slip cover of satin or wool
damask or any self-colored material
which looks well, with a short but
thick fringe set into the seams in
stead of piping. Moreover, you can
modify its lines by placing the seams
either forward or back to adjust the
effect Of narrowness or width.
Family portraits, which go nowhere
because of those gigantic gold frames
of yesterday, can be made to fit per-
fectly in small-ceilinged rooms by
framing them in narrow molding.
A pet method of my own-which
few people take advantage offs the
cutting down of diversified furniture.
Thousands of pieces have been sold at
auction because of the shrunken size
OF modern rooms compared with those
of former days. And yet at least half
of these objects. sold for song, could
have been cut down in one way or an
other. For example, the whole front
of huge wardrobe with lovely Louis
XIV paneling, bought for SO at auction
because of its size, became an en-
chanting door frame with double
doors now used in the smallest of
halls.
OF course, like every other opera
ton, this one upon furniture must
be done with some judgment Plain
ly, too, any piece that has definite
claim to having been made by a
master craftsman should be given to
some other member of the family, or
sold to a collector: but furniture that
has no established history would Git
seems to me) better be regarded SEN
sibly. Meaning that if by cutting
away part of the thickness of side
board. cabinet or chest. it can
keep its effect of charm and at the
same time fit flatter against the wall
of small room where otherwise it
usurps most of the floor space; and
If in the same way refectory table,
which Is as long as the dining room
it Is intended for, can be made ex-
actly the right length by cutting off
one end Of the top or a section out
of the middle. 1t certainly does seem
senseless to sell such treasures at auc-
tion for a small fraction of their
worth because the big rooms of other
days are not likely to be met again
by most of us. Furthermore, l make
this cutting-down suggestion because
I have had so many satisfying re-
suits both for myself and for my
neignbors. Cutting down the legs of
our large sofas and chairs will make
them seem much smaller.

= INCE the background against

vitally important branches of
- my entire subject, nothing dis
tresses me more often than my
inability to answer letters concerned
with the unending details that to-
gether produce a house of charm.
And yet it is not humanity possible
to answer such letters except by saw
ing them and then from time to time
printing an answer to as many as can
be fitted together into one article.
Today, then, my most typical letter
asks: What shall I do about things
that have been in my family for
years? A friend tells me they are not
in fashion and that I should give them
away and put cheaper but smaller and
smarter things in their place"
To this I would say: Be very care
full about what wou discard, since it is
your personal possessions. inherited or
gradually collected, that make up the
background that is truly yours. OF
course, if the old things are neither
useful nor pleasing to you, then you
may do right in getting rid Of them.
The best method I know is to study
the object in question carefully, and
ask yourself: Do you like it at all?
(That your friend dislikes 1t Is of no
Importance whatever) Would you
miss it should you part with it? Would
something else better serve its pur-
pose? If ugly, can it be made beau
tiful?
This last question is one that few
people think to ask. And yet almost
any ugly sofa or armchair that you
want to keep, because it belonged to
your family or because it is restful to
sit in, can be made attractive in a
