How the WELL Dressed"
Furniture Should Appear

This season-and every season
furniture should be kept fresh
and cleaning! The home-maker
owes it to her furniture-and the
appearance of her home. Before
it leaves the shop of the furniture
dealer, before it is sold-good fur
niture is kept polished! The dealer
continually gives it a polish serv-
ice", to maintain it's rich appear
ance-keep the wood "alive!" He,
who is an authority, regularly
uses a good oil polish (the best
is non-greasy, because it has a
fine, lght-oil base). He knows
the importance of this-for selling
furniture is his business-and on
his shop floor, every piece of fine
wood must be kept at its lustrous
best! He knows, too, how vital it
is to the finish, the very pores of
the wood, to frequently apply a
quality oil polish on the various
suites and fine pieces! The effect
of its frequent use on furniture is
two-fold: It prevents drying-out
and cracking-and it brings to the
furniture a deep, lasting high-tone
that suffuses the wood, brings
out all the natural beauty of the
grain. All woodwork and furni-
ture will remain "welldressed." "

SUMMARIZES THE WORLDS WEEK
@ Western Newspaper Union.

next fiscal year, from July l, 1888,
to Feb. l, 1889. A billion and hall
had been talked about as necessary.
In addition the President suggest
ed about $50 millions should be APP
propriated for the Department of
Agriculture's farm security pro
gram and so millions for the Ma
tional Youth administration.
Not a word was said about the
proposed expenditure of a billion
and a half for noninterest bearing
loans to states and cities for con-
struction programs. Nor was there
any discussion of the proposal to
issue more than billion dollars in
gold certificates against the steri-
lized gold fund.
While this conference was going
on, there were developments indi-
eating that the Democratic-Republi-
can coalition that defeated the re-
organization and other administra-
ton bills might get into action
against the new spending program.
In this Senator Byrd of Virginia,
Democrat, and Representative Smell
of New York, minority leader in
the house, took the lead.

foreign minister. His choice for this
key post means experimentation of
French foreign policy with that of
Great Britain, the opening of nego-
tiations with Mussolini and complete
abandonment of the Spanish repub-
lie in it's war with Francois insur-
gents.
The political fate of Daladier's
government depends on his success
or failure in breaking up the pre-
vailing strikes in France. 1t APP
peared probable he would not ask
parliament just yet for dictatorial
financial powers, the demand that
caused the downfall of Blum, but
will be satisfied with holding on
quietly until after the Easter vaca-
ton, waiting for the return of So
cial peace.

Shelving of the measure by send
ing it back to the committee, ac-
complished by a vote of 204 to 1856,
was generally regarded as severe
blow to the prestige of the Presi-
dent, for the administration leaders
had declared in the debate that the
issue was solely one of confidence
in Mr.. Roosevelt. His letter to Ray
burn was taken to mean that a
observation-disclosures fight in
November should be avoided and
that he would not inject himself into
the congressional elections. Sena-
tor Byrnes, after calling at the
White House, admitted there would
be no effort to revive the reorgani-
cation bill in the senate.
It was said in Washington that
Speaker Bankhead, Sam Rayburn
and other prominent Democrats,
constituting the defeat of the reor-
ganization bill as vote of "no con-
fidence" in the administration, were
ready to abandon for the present
much Of the New Deal program for
social and economic legislation, in
Guiding the revised bill for regula-
ton of wages and hours of labor.
They decided, it was reported, to
concentrate on passage of the tax
revision and appropriation bills and
the voting of funds for unemploy-
ment relief and revival of business
activity. 1t is their hope that con-
gress can adjourn by May Is.

TOM GIRDLER, head of Republic
i Steel, said in Cleveland that the
national labor relations board was
wrong when it accused Republic
of violating the Wagner act before
and during last summers little
steel' strike, and indicated the COM

decisions through the courts.
The board decided that Republic
had violated the Wagner act on
eight counts and, among other
things, ordered the corporation to re-
instate 5000 strikers with back pay
from April 8; to break up employee
representative plans at five Ohio
plants, and to stop practices which
would lead employees to think they
were not free to join the c. I. o. or
other unions.
The board also placed on Republic
the responsibility for the death Of
