Home Construction
Costs Up s. Pct.
In December
Labor Price Rises 7.8,
Building Materials
Advance 4.4

A 512 per cent increase in con-
struction costs for a standard house
in December. 1910, as compared with
December, 1899. was reported today
by economists of the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board. December costs
were IT per cent above November.
Increases in labor costs were near
ly double that Of building materials
in the jump from December, 1889.
Labor costs went up 78 per cent
while building materials were "A
per cent higher, making a net in
crease of SIS per cent, according to
the boards division of research and
statistics.
Using the average month of 1896
as a base of 100, the boards econ
omists gave December, 1910, an in
dex rating Of 112.5 as compared
with 110.6 in November and 1866
in December, 1899 The percentage
increases were figured on the rise
in the index numbers.
1t also was noted in the monthly
report that the index of rents in
the United States as figured by the
National Industrial Conference
Board went up IL per cent between
December, 1899, and December last
year, but was practically stationary
between November and December.
Despite the increase in construc-
ton costs, home and apartment
building in American cities in 1910
was well ahead of 1899. In cities of
10000 population and over there was
Evening star., 1941-02-08

a total OF 3l6,628 family dwelling
units built or projected in 1910, as
compared with 284 290 in 1899 In
1910 the units built cost $1,122 ,635. =
900 while those in 1899 were built
at cost of $1.025 ,979 200.
OF the 316,628 units in 1910, 1872
429 were one-family dwellings,
1904 were two-family dwellings. 780
were joint home and business struc-
lures and LOT 1926 were in structures
containing at least three or more
such units. The figures on the num-
Der of units built in cities of 10000
population or over were estimated
by the boards economists on the
basis of building permits reported to
the United States Department Of

pared compound that you can get
from a plumber. Directions for use
are on the label of the can. There
is no effective way to clean the in
side walls of hot-water supply
tank, aside from draining it. Every
two or three weeks you should open
the draincock at the bottom of the
tank to let out disclored water.
Radiator Air Valves.
@. What are the best kind of air
valves to use for steam radiators?
A. Get the kind that has adjust
able air outlets. BY varying the
sizes of the outlets all radiators can
be made to heat envenly. Do not
buy cheap air valves, for they will
not last; get good ones.
Poplar Roots.
@. Several years ago, in order to
get quick shade, I planted poplar
trees around a house, standing in a
bare open space. I now learn that
the roots are running the we'll, which
formerly was the best we'll in the
neighboorhood. The water has now
turned brown and tastes bad. If I
cut the trees this winter, will the
roots die?
A. I doubt if the roots are re-
sponsible for the condition of the
well. If they are, cleaning the well
should put it again in condition.
To kill the roots. saw the trees off
near the ground, bore as many deep
holes as possible in the stumps and
pack them with saltpeter. This will
have a rotting effect that the roots
cannot survive.
Casein Paint.
Q. One of my rooms has rough
plaster walls, finished with casein
paint. I am told that this does
Evening star., 1941-02-08

paste so that the paper will not be
harmed by the dampness?
A. Instead of ordinary wallpaper
you should use a kind that is
waterproof One variety is finished
with varnish, and after the paper
is hung and there has been time
for drying, a coat of spar varnish
should be brushed on. Use COM
mercial wallpaper paste of q good
brand.

First Aid
For the

@. How can I refnish an old cedar
chest that has been vanished? !
should like to wax it.
A. VarniSh can be taken off with
liquid varnish remover, to be had at
a paint store. Follow the directions
on the label, and end by wiping with
turpentine. After drying. go over
the chest with fine sandpaper and
then put on three or more thin coats
Of paste floor wax, rubbing each one
we'll after a half hour for drying.
Cracked Concrete Walk.
@. How can I mend a crack In a
concrete sidewalk?
A. On a dry day, clean the crack
of all loose particles and sift dry
portland cement into it. packing it
down firmly. Then brush all loose
cement from the surface of the walk.
Dribble water on the walk along
each side of the crack, 2 inches
away and push it over to the crack
with brush or piece of cardboard,
so that it sinks in and vets the new
cement. Continue to do this until
lllt GSlllcl1l 10 IllOl OuSll4y SO1ahSN.
Do not pour water on the crack, for
that would wash the cement out.
Keep the patch damp for three or
four DAYS Do not attempt to repair
concrete in freezing weather.
Graining Wood.
Q. am doing over the Dashboard
in my kitchen and would like to
Of
work. How should I go about it?
A. Graining is done with a tool
something like a comb The job is
not difficult, but is easier to illus
trate than to describe. Ask for in
structions at any large paint store.
Leaking Wall.
@. The lower part of my house
wall is tile, and the upper cement
blocks. After 18 years water has
now started to Seep in during a hard
rain. Water comes in where the
wall meets the cellar floor, and in
some higher places, although there
are no visible cracks. How can I
remedy this condition?
A. Leakage is probably through
the mortar joints of the tile. An
other possibility is that there has
been a change in outdoor conditions
by which water is now finding its
way under the cellar floor. This
should be investigated. Leaks in the
mortar joints call for excavation out
side the wall, raking out the old
mortar and packing the joints with
new.
Crust on Bricks.
@. Our home is built of pressed
brick. A white crust has been COM
ing out of the bricks, making spots
below the window sills and on the
chimney, and this spoils the ap-
pearanCe Of the whole house. Can
it be remedied?
A. That crust is due to minerals
that may be in the bricks, but are
much more likely to be in the mortar.
They are dissolved by rain and come
to the surface, where they remain
when the bricks have dried The
crust washes off in the next rain,
but more of the minerals come to
the surface, and this action con-
tinues until all of the soluble min
erals are gone. In time the trouble
will end. 1t can be stopped by
Waterproof1ng the brickwork, so that
rain cannot penetrate.
Boiler Cleaner.
Q. What chemical can I use to
clean the inside of my hot-water
supply tank and steam bOiler2

not wash well, for the dirt soaks In
when the paint is wet. I have In
mind putting on oil paint. Would
first coat of aluminium paint be
advisable? Would paint be likely
to peel or chip? Has paint any
insulating value?
A. Good casein paint is an ex-
cellent first coat for oil paint
Aluminium paint should not be nee
essary. No kind of paint is thick
enough to have any insulating
value. One advantage of casein
paint is that it is washable.

Red Cross, OCD
Look to Volunteers
For Civil Defense

Washington, D. C.-To the ques-
ton. What can l do for America >"
the Red Cross is providing an answer
for hundreds of thousands of men and
women who want to do their part on
the civilian defense front.
For women. tho Red Cross is pro-
viding an sO-hour training course to
recruit corps of 100000 Nurses
Aides. 1t is the Red Cross newest
project. undertaken at the request OF
the U. S. Office of Civilian Defense to
ing facilities.
With thousands Of nurses being
taken into military service with our
armed forces, civilian nursing has suf-
fered direct blow, the Red Cross
points out. Moreover, the defense pro.
gram has created additional health
problems which has heightened the
need for civilian nursing.
Red Cross Nurses Aides will serve
rs assistants to registered nurses, per-
forming scores of important duties
which will enable nurses TO care for
more cases. The Red Cross stresses
that Nurses Aides will not take the
place of the registered nurse. but will
serve in an auxiliary capacity.
On the more dramatic side OF civilian
defense. the Red Cross is gearing its
far-flung disaster fighting machine to
handle mass feeding, housing and
clothing of exacuees under wartime
conditions. In cooperation with the
Office Of Civilian Defense. chapters
are Strengthening disaster relief COM

ter much on the same scale as relief
operations following natural catastro-
phe. Organization along these lines
include preparedness measures for
fires. explosions and epidemics which
may be expected to result from accel-
Grated industrial activity incident to

defense has not been neglected by the
Red Cross. Last year nearly 100000
were trained in emergency treatment
OF the injured. This year the figure
is expected to go much higher with
special emphasis being placed on the
formation of detachments which would
serve as units in factories, Office build
ings. schools and other places where
persons are concentrated.
Red Cross courses in Home Nursing
and in Nutrition also are being eX-
banded as feature OF the civilian
defense program, it was pointed out.
Mounting health hazards and the short.
age of civilian nurses may at any time
oblieate the housewife-or even the
man of the house-to assist in caring
for the sick Likewise. the Red Cross
is placing greater emphasis on Nutrt
ton courses designed to teach house
holders the art OF purchasing and pre-
pairing well-balanced meals within the
range Of the family pocketbook.
