Patsy and Duke
Seeking Homes
With Room

Patsy" a 5-month-old female
pup, is seeking a new home be-
cause her present owner, Mrs. E.
L. Thompson. 24O8 Nichols Ave.
S. E.. expects to leave town.
Patsy is a pretty black and white
dog, part spitz and part collie.
She is playful, housebroken,
healthy and would make a good
pet for child.
Another pet named Duke-part
fox terrier and spitz, is offered to
someone living in a house. This
9-month-old female dog is offered
by Mrs. Charles Downey, ia Will
low Ave, Takoma Park, Md. Chalf
block outside the District Line)
Duke looks almost like a thorough
bred fox terrier, is all white with
a patch of light tan over one eye.
She is housebroken, a good watch
dog and very playful; in fact. too
playful for an apartment. That
is why Mrs. Downey must get rid
of her.

STEEL OUTLOOK
SEEN DARK

NEW YORK, June 24.-While
steel production is maintained at
II per cent of capacity and the
current situation is highly salts
factory, the long-term outlook is
Tar from encouraging, according
10 Iron Age.
The labor situation probably
heads the list of disturbing fac
;ors, the summary said. The
Lewis Committee for Industrial
Organization, backed by ample
funds, has begun its aggressive
1nionization drive. One major
steel plant has been closed by a
strike for full month. Iron Age
adds:
"SeriOuS consideration is un-
queStiOnabIy being given to wage
advances. While such action
may be postponed until higher
prices actually become effective,
increasing unrest in emplOye
ranks may force premature ac-
tiOn. 1t is now generally ad-
mitted that the higher prices
announced recently anticipated
wage increases, but the narrow
profit margins enjoyed by ma
jOr steel producers would have
been turned into losses had the
procedure been reversed.
Even more serious is the
growing hostility of the Federal
Government. The Federal Trade
Commissions report on alleged
cOlluSive bidding by steel sheet
piling makers and its haSty
acceptance by the AdminiStra-
ton for obvious political pur-
poses indicate quite clearly that
the steel industry has already
been singled out as the whip
ping boy Of the political cam
paign. Proposed settlement of
the FTC'S case against the tin
plate makers with a consent de-
cree will only add fuel to the
fire.

voiced yesterday by Commissioner

Urging the membership COM

Nations Capital. The fiscal
needs of the District should be

WHEAT PRICES

CHICAGO. June "a. Q.N.SO.
Wheat prices reacted to moder-
ately below the previous closing
level today after advancing about
a cent a buShel.
The feeble response of the
Winnipeg market to relative firm
ness abroad and the forecast for
unsettled weather in dry sections
Of the Northwest caused the re-
action here. September dropped
to 95A from 81.

Premier Mussolini effected far
reaching measure in preparation
of Italy for the European war he
believes inevitable when all FaS.
Scist youths between the ages OF
|i6 and 19 were ordered to enroll
for pre-military training.
This decree, issued by the ma

here, was interpreted as another
warning to the powers that the
italian dictator intends to go
ahead with the development OF
sEthiopia in the face of any oppo'
sition.
This order, calling hundreds
pf thousands Of the nations youth
to the colorS, was regarded as but
one step in II Duce'S broad de
Tense program now taking shape

Pietro Badoglio.

A decided back to the land"
movement the past five years was
reported today by the Census Bu-
reau.
More than $4,000 persons
were added to the farm population
between 1880 and 1885. Last year
the farm population was 31,800,'
GOT, the largest ever recorded.
Farm population gains were
noted around industrial centers,
mining sections, and in areas often
designated as Subsistence farm
ing". Particularly large increases
in farm population took place in
the southern Appalachian section,
eastern Ohio, western PennSyl-
vania, the Birmingham industrial
area, New England, northern Min
nesota, Wisconsin, and in the
Puget Sound and Willamette val
leys. The Census Bureau said:
"This increase in farm resi-
dents reflects, in q major degree,

Of more than 1000, 900 persons

capacity which will be demanded.
This, in turn, depends on a variety of
factors which differ sharply in each
individual case, such as climate, ex-
posure, radiant heat of the sun, door
and window space, building materials,
insulation, amount of heat generated
within the space Of lights, appliances
or human beings, and several similar
considerations, all to be weighed and
balanced by the air-conditioning en-
gineer in determining the specific job
to be done and the proper apparatus
to do 1t.
Careful consideration of all these
factors will enable the builder to keep
in hand the capacity of cooling equip
ment needed, effecting a worth while
saving in original equipment cost and
as well sustained economy of opera
ton.

Planning of Windows.

AS a case in point. the Pittsburgh
Glass Institute points out the fact
that proper planning of windows and
other glass areas is an important factor
in the overall application of air con-
ditioning.
Among the several recently developed
glass products is solex, heat-absorb-
ing glass of blue-green color, designed
to meet the demand for glass which
would reduce both heat intensity and
glare resulting from the direct radia-
tion of the sun. Used for glazing
southern and western exposures of
buildings, solex transmits maximum
of sunlight and a minimum Of solar
heat. Tests have indicated that rooms
glazed with Solex will run from 10 to 20
degrees cooler during the hottest por-
ton of the Summer day and from two
to four degrees at other times of day
than the same rooms glazed with ordi-
nary plate glass.

AIR CONDITIONING
GAINING IN FAVOR
Increased Use in Homes and
Factors in Installation
Are Discussed.

Taking its seasonal place in the
spotlight among topics of interest to
real estate, architectural and building
circles, air conditioning looms larger
than ever this year, since it Is being
widely applied to the home for the
first time.
Air conditioning first proved its
worth in industrial and commercial
applications and finally invaded the
field of new-home construction as an
important factor last year. During the
past IL months manufacturers have
been busily developing new air con-
ditioning equipment specially adapted
to the small and moderately priced
home. The current market finds many
residential builders stressing air con-
ditioning as the most compelling sales
feature Of their houses.
Much of the once-prevalent mystery
about air conditioning has been dissi-
pated, and there is now a much clearer
general understanding about not only
the equipment but also about the many
factors relating to it.

Against Loss.

Up to June thrift and home
lending associations to the number of
1901 have been insured as to safety
of investors accounts through the
Federal Savings & Loan Insurance
Corp, which began operating late in
1884. More than 100000 share
holders and depositors in these insti-
tutions are now protected against
possible loss up to $4,000 each.
Indicating the size and resources of
these insured institutions, which are
located in A States, the District of
Columbia and Hawaii it Is reported
that their combined assets total over
$3.50 100000. They include l,079 Fed
orally chartered savings and loan as
sociationS, some newly organized and
Others converted from State charter
in the past three years. and 222 as
sociations operating under supervision
of their respective States.
In addition, applications for insur-
ance from 18 other institutions have
been approved by the insurance cor
poration.
The additional safeguard to these
savings, which come in part from
wage earners and other people of
small means. is attracting an in
creased volume of investment funds
to these institutions, enabling them
TO increase their rate of lending for
the construction, purchase. repair and
reflnancing of homes. Letters received
by the Federal Home Loan Bank
Board from many insured institutions
testify to the benefits they have re-
ceived from this insurance protection,
