BY HAROLD PETERS United Press Staff COrreSp0ndent)

Budapest, Hungary, April II. - (UP)-A state of emergency was de- clared throughout Hungary today as Hungarian troops marched into the Bacza region of Jugoslavia between the Danube and Tisza rivers.
 "Under orders of the regent, Ad- miral Nicholas Horthy, the Hun garian armies today crossed the Tri- anon treaty frontier between the Danube and the Tisza as well as the opposite triangle of the Baranya area of the Danube"
 The Baranya area is 0 small body of land which lies to the west of the Danube on the frontier.
 The old Austro- Hungarian empire had lost the Bacza area, about $500 square miles, and the smaller Bara- nya triangle to the new kingdom of Serbs. Croats and Slovenes as the result of the last war.
 Admiral Horthy announced in formal proclamation that he had ordered the occupation of the area in question.
 The march into Jugoslavia came not quite four months after the sig nature December 12 of a treaty of constant peace and perpetual friend ship between Hungary and Jugo- slavia.

time you attempt to build one of
those CHEEKY fires we hear so much
about.
Circulation of heat from this new
unit is secured by the addition OF
an outer casing around the steel
fireplace form. Openings are pro-
vided at the top and bottom of this
casing, and cold air from the floor
comes in at the bottom, passes over
the hot inner shell and is let out
at the top. Decorative grilles in
either the sides or front of the man
tel cover up these inlets and out
let's AS an added means of ex-
tracing the greatest possible heat
the inner shell is now being equipped
with fins or blades, solidly welded
to the steel body, which adds about
81 per cent to the surfaces giving
of heat.
One Of these new fireplace units
in a small house or cottage can be
made to heat the entire residence.
All you have TO do is add sheet
metal ducts TO the outlets, and heat
will be delivered to rooms beyond
the fireplace. For a particularly
efficient installation you also can
add small electric circulating fans in
the ducts leading to the various
rooms, and you will be able to heat
a large space quickly and pleas
antly.

arate hot and cold valves with a
single handle. 1t is also fixed so
that when you start to adjust the
water temperature the stream is
running into the tub, then when
the proper feeling is secured you
twist a small "diverter" handle and
the same temperature water comes
out of the shower head.
The single handle makes a very
neat looking installation, and the
"diverter" handle is built right into
the spout. Thus you have complete
control of the water situation at all
times. The riser pipe is empty when
the shower is not being used, and

Fireplace That Heats,

New Devices on Market
Will Add to Pleasure
Of Homeowners
By LAURENCE CROLIUS.

Many q man cherishes the idea
of reposing in front of a fireplace
with pipe in his mouth, his dog
at his feet and his wife beside him.
Unfortunately the average fireplace
is not always to be depended on
for adequate heating, and the man
with his pipe is very apt to have
his face scorched while his back is
frozen. Believe 1t or not, fully "a
per cent of the heat produced by
burning logs or coal in the aver
age fireplace goes up the chimney,
and all you get out of 1t is the
radiant glow. Very picturesque but
not very practical these expensive
days.
Why not convert your fireplace.
if you already have one, or build
an up-to-date heating unit into
your new house. which will not
only give you the pleasurable glow
Of the old-fashioned hearth but
will also heat the rest of the room?
A clever new fireplace device is
now available which extracts heat
that would otherwise go up the
chimney and circulates it around
the room like a regular hot-air
heating system. This new unit
may be fitted into your present
mantel. and all that you see is two
sets OF decorative grilles, through
which the air circulates.
Smoke Is Eliminated.
Made of heavy steel with q pre-
fabricated flrebox and casing, the
new unit eliminates the expense of
setting lot of friedrich, except for
the hearth, and the dome damper is
built right into the circulating fire.
place. Any masonry work which is
done around the unit is greatly SIM
plifled because the boxlike construs-
ton makes a form in itself. Thus
the mystery of shaping a fireplace
so that it will actually work when
1t is completed is removed, and you
can rest assured that your house
won't be filled with smoke every
