The container has triple "

up. The flakes keep on extracting
moisture as long as there is any in

Foolproof Screwdriver.
Now that we all are becoming
handy minded, with the current
vogue for manual self-sufficiency, it
rather behooves householders, men
and women alike, TO learn how to
do various odd jobs about the house.
No tool is more familiar or useful
than a screwdriver. For the mex
pert handyman there is a new screw
and screWdriver on the market that
is practically foolproof.
The screw has a recess in its head
instead of the usual slot, and the
screwdriver is made to fit into the
recess tightly. This increased hold
ing power of the screwdriver is a
boon to the odd-job doer.
Two dozen ScreWdrivers come
packaged in kit with % dozen fiat
head steel screws in the most COM
mon household lengths, diameters
from No. 5 to No. 16 The screw
drivers are No. IA and No. ga.
The kit sells for $3.50.
Drying a Damp Basement.
Here is new solution for the
damp basement problem which may
be prevalent at this season and very
likely exists during the summer,
when the hot air is laden with hu-
midity. Why not dry the air by
means of moisture absorbing ma
terial which has been used by indus
trial plants for years?
The material we have in mind is
that same calcium chloride which
is used on walks and steps in win
ter to melt the ice. 1t comes now
with simple, inexpensive container
into which the flakes are placed.
Allowed to stand atop an enameled
basin, the chemical pulls moisture
from the air and deposits the solu-
ton in the basin. Your only job is
emptying the basin. You can even
use the solution afterward for sprin-

Airfields Blasted

German communiques have been
murmuring softly of concentrated
bombings of British airfields. a
move which could be the first sign
of invasion. They started in on
those fields about two weeks ago
and Wednesday claimed the de-
struction of II.
But this too has aspects Of
taking. British airfelds are scat
tered all over England in every
pasture. They have an efficient
engineering corps with the sole
duty of repairing runway damage.
Gravel and cement are piled hand
lily at every large field. and as
soon as the attack is over, the
engineering branch starts repair
work which seems TO make the
fields disable within "a hours after
their destruction"
When the real prelude assault
on English fields begins, it will not
be like those which have occurred
so far. The movement will neces-
sarily be on such a grand scale
that every one will know it and
recognize il for what it is.

Meant to Battle

Hitler's feints and thrusts all
around the rim of continental Eu-
rope have baffled the British and
our people as much as the news
reader-and are so intended.
The Franco meeting with Mus
solini was a Hitler devised stunt
TO rouse British fears for Gibraltar.
The air occupation of Bulgaria
was another to threaten the I'M
protected right flank of the Greeks.
On their face they seemed fakes,
but no one could be sure. The
Bulgarian mountain passes will
not be free of snow for 30 days,
but in Norway Hitler moved troops

considered impossible land left

Only thing sure is that Germany
will have to make a thrust in the
Spring somewhere. Her predica-
mont requires il.

ask their main buyers. the steel

Demands on Italy

The British sounded as II
someone had spat in their eye by
suggesting the they might accept
an armistice with Mussolini.
Italy, disempowered in war. is
far more valuable TO the British
cause than Italy at peace. Their
people here have let our officials
understand peace with the neither
dictator is impossible, and why.
Only terms they will consider
from Rome would require COM
plete surrender of all Italian air
and naval units as well as the
army in Albania. These would
constitute the minimum require
ments. The maximum would be
British occupation of all Italian
airfelds and military points OF
vantage.
! AS Britain could not require
less and Hitler would not let Mus
solini give so much, peace in the
Mediterranean seems as far away
TODAY as il ever was.

scrap, to take no more or less
than about $50 a ton. The in

this requirement.
But last week in Mr.. Hender-

the regional price differentials in

agreement among themselves to

l-- To - Hollywood
BY PAUL HARRISON

NEA Service Stan Correspondent
 Hollywood, = The fact that this is e wear-what-you- -please town makes all the more striking the foppishness Of Adolplle, the Mag nificent Menjou. It must be ad- mitted the his fantastic wardrobe is a great asset though Q doubtful compliment to his acting career You'll get an idea of how much clothes mean to him personally when you learn that he has just built a house for them in Beverly Hills.
 Menjou and his wife, Veree Teas- dale, live there too. The place has the atmosphere of Q Bond Street tailor shop or @ Park Avenue haber- dashery. They are getting along fine, but under the other circumstances I think 1t would be funny If an ac- tress sued for divorce and named Q top hat as correspondent.
 Backed in the days when 1t was considered important for movie peo- pie to maintain an imposing front, Menjou augmented his personal ele- gance by buying a 22-room man. sion in the Oak Park region of Hollywood. Even with the wardrobe which wasn't so extensive then, he and Miss Teasdale rattled around in the place, so they closed off about two-thirds of the establishment and lived in one end of 1t. Menjou tried to sell 1t and finally did.

 haven't seen the new house, but he told about 1t between wardrobe changes-i8 of them--on the set of Father Takes Q Wife" Of the downstairs hall is q room entirely devoted to the Menjou shoes, boots leggings, gaiters and spats. There are several hundred items, all per- fectly kept and 6 few brand new.
 Across the hall from the shoe department Is 6 roomful of sports wear and equipment Everything from pith helmets to scarlet riding coats, ski suits to bathing trunks.
 Farther along the hall is Q mir- rored lounging room where the actors formal attire Is kept. Here are morning suits, top hats, tall coats, several shades of Tuxedos scarves, gloves, canes, mess Jackets and all the rest.
 Tn an upstair room are his busi- ness and lounge suits-about 100 And in an adjacent alcove is Q com pletely equipped haberdashery -- shirts ties, socks, soft hats, handker- chiefs, underwear, suspenders, jewell ".
 There are few other rooms, of course, in which the Menjous live.
