panes. The window which operates
easily and safely may boast Of a
trim as narrow as l inch, with the
new sash balance devices.
It takes less space In which to hide
balancing gadgets these days. We
have found one system Of balancing
which eliminates weights, cord, pull
leys, pockets and boxes entirely, max
ing it possible to construct q window
with narrow trim and mullions-at q
substantial saving. The new system
is true counterbalance consisting of
q flexible tube of wire with hanger
at the top and slotted fitting at the
bottom. A spiral rod slides through
the slots and at the other end Of the
spiral is a sash holder, which is
screwed to the lower rail OF the sash.
Turning the bottom sash holder
creates lifting power in the flexible
tube and this in equalized by the
spiral rod, resulting in perfectly
balanced sash at every point.
A window weighing up to 40 pounds
can use plain balance, but for win
dows weighing over this and up to 10
pounds the flexible tube Is covered
with rigid metal casing. They are
both easily installed, and Just as
strong as the conventional weight
and-pulley balance. Indeed, engi-
neering tests showed that sash op-

company says $4,000 cycles is equiva-

once a day for 1877 years, so that's
that.
So II you are designing new house
you needn't leave as much space to go
around your windows as you thought.

OBSERVATIONS
Continued from Page ~

the Congress, disappointing in many
respects, as regards the Presidents
program, goes something like this:
The original court bill of the Ad-
ministration failed to pass and sub
stitute measure which cOrrectS many
evils that have long existed became
law. The action of the Senate on
the bill is not considered a defeat
by Administration leaders and many
lawyers, among them conservatives,
who point out that in submitting the
proposed legislation the President lib
eralized the court to an extent which
brought about decisions conforming
the New Deal policies, notably in
the Guffey Coal, Wagner Labor and
Social Security Acts. His liberal
nominee, Senator Black, was con-
firmed as an Associate Justice of the
high court which gives the liberals
definite minority of four instead of
three and majority if Chief Justice
Hughes and Justice Roberts continue
the liberal trend displayed in their
votes on recent occasions when the
court reversed itself on new deal
legislation.

The Administration failed to get
hoped for legislation that would have
insured workers a minimum of 40
cents an hour for 40 hour week.
1t figures to $500 year, assuming a
man gets SO weeks of work and the
writer for one has felt all along that
that is certainly not too much to
provide for the worker, particularly
a family man. The bill passed the
Senate but failed to reach the floor
of the House after favorable commit
tee action, because the Rules Com
mittee couldn't get majority to vote
out rule.
This and bills to provide crop con-
troll, reorganization of government
departments anti-lynching and the
little IVA will all await action at the
next regular session in January or
at a special session if one is called.
The farm tenant bill, making it
possible for tenants to acquire land,
passed as did the Wagner Housing
bill. A compromise sugar quota bill
passed but may be vetoed. A relief
appropriation bill for $1,500,00O, 900
passed. In the foreign relations field
the Neutrality Act was extended and
the Senate ratified eight Pan-Amer-
lean treaties.
