Of community better housing cam
paigns. Manufacturers are developing
sales programs to educate dealers and
contractors In the advantages to be
gained from their own participation
in the housing movement.
A recent tabulation by the Federal
Housing Administration revealed that
of % cities surveyed, 1852 per cent of
the modernization needs Of the av-
erage home was exterior painting and
an additional 1876 per cent was for
interior decorating, which includes
many paint projects. This is in
terpreted by the industry as being a
consequence of its own efforts to
clean house" first.
A QUESTIONABLE sent by the Federal
Housing Administration to members
of the National Paint, Varnish and
Lacquer Association produced a def
nitely favorable reaction in 476 re-
plies.
These replies were classified for In
depreciation as follows: Glass A,

housing program and doing a good
sales job," 299 or 628 per cent. Glass
B, those cooperating with the better
housing program. but doing little in

factory for Small Buildings.
Slower Type Preferable.

II owners of small apartment houses,
hotels and Office buildings knew how
many prospective tenants turn away
when they find no elevator. there
probably would be fewer "walk-up"
buildings. Many elevatorless depart
ment stores. hospitals. schools and
colleges also could install lifts to ad-
vantage.
A satisfactory type of elevator for
small buildings is the self-service kind,
which, instead of serving one call at
a time, as most elevators Of this sort
do, stops at each floor at which
button has been pressed for the direc-
ton in which 1t is travelling. This
elevator banishes the main objection
to self f-service-namely, slow service.
Two such elevators may be inter-
connected for prompt service during
the rush hours.
The type of elevator most suitable
for a particular building depends on
the number Of people and the weight
and area of freight to be carried in a
given time When that is known, the
necessary size and speed can be COM
puted with ease. High-speed elevators
mean high initial cost and expensive
operation and maintenance Although
advisable for many large buildings.
they are impractical for small build
ings OF q few stories. The slower
geared type is satisfactory and oper-
ates on either direct or alternating
current. A wide entrance and large
loading areas at each floor are i'm
portant in preventing congestion de-
lays.

Plants Being Modernized in
Cooperation With

On the theory that people who live
In glass houses shouldn't throw
stones" the Nations paint industry is
conducting q campaign for the reno
vation and improvement Of the plants
and properties engaged in the produc-
ton Of paints. varnishes and laquers
and is educating its distributors to
carry this message to property owners.
The effect of this support to the
better housing program, as reported
to the Federal Housing Administra-
ton, is two-fold:
/. Out Of 476 paint manufacturers
contacted. more than So per cent are
cooperation with the Federal Hous-
ing Administration by making repairs
to their own plants and equipment and
encouraging their employees to make
repairs to their homes.
Many Join Drive.
2. Approximately IS per cent Of the
manufacturers contacted are develop
ing intensive campaigns designed to
thoroughly. educate their sales organ
izations in the advantages to be gained
from cooperation with the better
housing program SO that they may
help paint dealers. distributors and
contractors to increase their sales
through participation in the housing
movement.
This activity is in direct accord with
Administrator Moffett's suggestion to
industries that they do their share of
modernization and repair Just as the
home owner and small business prop
erty owner is being asked to do under
the better housing program.
The industry's support falls into
four phases: Manufacturers are max
ing repairs to their own plants and
equipment. Employees are being en-
couraged to make repairs to their own

tors are cooperating enthusiastically

NEW YORK, March 9.-New
metropolitan business Offices are now
striking note of individuality as well
as of impressiveness in their decora-
ton. Leading decorators are en-
ployed to work out backgrounds which
will either suggest the up-to-dateness
of the occupant or convey an i'm
preston of maturity and reliability.
The former characteristic is generally
expressed by a smart modern style,
and the latter in period effect, often
with antique furnishings.
An example of the modern trend
in Office decoration is the sanctum
of a woman consultant to manufac-
turers on the women's viewpoint as
it affects his products. In her con-
ference room, which, like many other
New York business suites, Is neces-
sarily small, she had the walls painted
silvery gray, with the trim in light
gray, in order to convey the impress
sion of greater space. The floor is a
deep brown linoleum in tile pat
tern, and the Dashboard is painted
to match the floor Yellow draperies
hang at the windows. All this forms
an effective background for walnut
furniture, including a curved library
desk with a graceful armchair.
A lawyers Office high up in sky
scraper overlooking the bay COM
bines an up-to-date modernism with
reminder of the past. Modern-day
decoration, expressed in white walls
and special lighting fixtures, blends
gracefully with mahogany desks and
chairs of the Federal period. the time

great early American statesmen so

FILA. URGES HOT WATER
TANK SAFETY DEVICES
Suggestions Offered on Elimina-
tion Of Damage and Possible
Injury From Systems.

Suggestions as to the elimination
Of dangers Of damage and possible
human injury from hot-water sys-
TENS is included in material supplied
to the Federal Housing Administra-
ton.
According to expert authority, do
mestic hot water systems, whether
in the form Of auxiliary heaters COLI
nected to boilers or as separate unit
heaters, should be protected with
pressure and temperature relief
valves.
Overheating of domestic hot water
generates steam which, without safety
devices. sometimes causes heaters to
burst causing damage and, on occa-
sions. injuries. Provision Of a safety
device prevents possible damage to
the water meter.
Systems already equipped in such
manner should be checked at least
once a year by master plumber.

r. N. TROTZKY
AGAIN JAILED

DR.. r. N. Trotzky, former local
physician, is again in trouble. This
time he is in Jail at Mexico City,
charged with entering Mexico IL
legally.
"E1 Dia," a Mexican paper, re-
ceived here this week, gives Trot-
zky lengthy writeup, and contains
a couple of pictures, one of 'em
showing the doctor wearing the uni
form of a Russian officer.
The paper denies that Trotzky is
a nephew of the Leon Trotzky, Rus
sian statesman. It says he was born
in Russia in 1894 and quotes T'rot-
zky as declaring he fled from there
in 1920 because of prosecution by
the Soviet government.
The paper declares Trotzky is a
grand inpoSter" and that to gain
sympathy he pretended he was shot
in the arm by two gangsters while
living in Nogales.
