Perk Up That Old Furniture

By JAMES r. PATTERSON
Supervisor of Interior Design at Pratt Institute

THIS ORIENTAL business of
saving face is a pretty good idea.
On the whole. we Americans are
given TO taking things as they
come-good or bad-and are not
likely TO do anything just for
appearance. The Oriental will.

TO lose caste, even in his own
eyes.
1t may seem foolish to US. but
there is an element of good
sense in his philosophy. espe-
cially for those OF us who are
stuck with some furniture of
dubious merit.
Too often we accept owner

inevitable sometimes it is a

we should attempt 10 save face

Of the Surest and most SatiSfac-

Experiment First

At home you can make slip
covers for almost anything pro-
vided some experimenting is
done with a pattern first. II is
always good practice TO plan the
job completely before you cut
into material. and, in the case
of something fairly costly, il is
worth little added expense TO
make a temporary cover of mus
lin to iron out any mistakes
before you ruin good material.
Take an old sofa and chair
so typical of the suite combins-

what can be done. not just for
a season but for the year
round.
In their original state these
pieces may be upholstered with

furthermore. they may be the

Particularly hard hit have been those factories whose products are made of metals on the prioritieS lists and at the same time are manufac- tured for civilian needs. Employers In these fields acknowledge that their stock on hand of vital metals is extremely limited, and that In the event of sudden cessation of the flow of materials, they would be obliged to shut down, in some in- stances almost immediately, and in others within from 30 to 90 days.
 o. P. M. head Leon Henderson re- gently predicted that unemployment might mount into the millions this winter due to this condition, and other opinion had prophecied that the slack thus created would be absorbed by the larger plants favor ed with orders and prior claims on materials.
 The efforts of the state employ ment services are apparently aimed to prevent @ situation such as this from becoming difficult, and im- posing hardship on employees that can be avoided by timely precaution. Those, wishing to register at 123 Bank street tonight are asked to bring social security cards,

 flee staff, to apply for registration during the daytime hours. This will enable the personnel of the Bank street branch to devote It's efforts to the group desired during the evening.
 Those regarding their present em- ployment in non-defense work as insecure are asked to register again, even if they have already done so, ill order that the office may record any new technical skills required by employees since earlier registration.
 Last Saturday, Major Leonard J. Maloney, director of the state eH1l- ployment service, announced that l8 field offices of the Connecticut sys- tenn would remain open tonight from 2 to 9 o'clock in order to regis. ter f1on-defense workers. Tn mak- ing the announcement, Major Ma loney urged all such employees to register for their own protection, because of the possibility of lay-offs due to metal prioritles.
 The. service head stated: T cannot emphasize too strongly that, even though worker is now employed, he should register at the State Em- ployment Service if he is not work ing on defense orders. Tn my opin- ion there are bound to be layoffs in ncn-defense industries in the very near future, and If registration for employment is deferred until that time, 1t is bound to result in difiicul- ties, and conceivably some hard- ships."
 The pinch of materials priorities has been already felt in many local Industries. Onlcials in small plants" not favored by government orders for defense commodities, have freely admitted that the prospect for even SO imminent 6 time as the coming winter is not optimistic. Tn spite of efforts on the part of federal agen- cies to divert orders in the direction of these plants, no improvement has been noted in recent weeks.

U. 5. Acquires Legal Title To Site Here

Legal title to the 2S-acre tract of land at Warner street and Long Hill road has ben transferred to the federal government, for $2l,. S2O according to papers filed to- day at the office of the town clerk.
 As in the case of the site on Hamilton avenue two weeks ago, the government went through the customary form of instituting con. demnatiOn proceedings against the property in question in the Uni- ted States district court in New Haven. The tract in question formerly belonged to George A. Elizabeth ,. and Kenneth B. War ner of WoIcott road.
 According to the final judg- nent, filed with the town clerk today, the government on April 23 deposited $21,S2O with the reg istry of the United States district court at New Haven. On Septem- Der 10 an agreement was reached between Dennis P. O'ConnOr, as. slstant to the United States attor- ney for this district, and the War. ners, and the latter waived all their rights to the property.
 Judge Carroll c. Hincks of the district court authorized the pay nIent of SSO6.44 to the city, in pay- ment of taxes due October 1, l04l, and the payment of $1,0O0 t6 Gus DeCicco, fin accordance with an assignment from the Warmers. The remainder of the deposit, $20, 0,513.66 is given to the Warmers.
 The court approved the stipula- tlons agreed to between the two parties on August 29th, and with the handing down Of this final judgment, the federal government secures free title Co the property, with no outstanding claims or Hens.

ARMY SERVICE

1t may be tough for the soldier boys
to serve in the army for another year
or so-if they happen to look at it that
way. It does no doubt interfere with a
lot of plans these enlisted men had for
themselves before Uncle Sam took them
in hand, or with plans they have formed
since. Humanely speaking, 1t is prob
ably unfair in many cases. But not
unlawful" as some are trying to make
out. Not "in violation of contract as
some careless volunteer spokesmen for
the army have been saying.
For there was no contract. The men
in training were drafted by the soVer-
eign power of the United States govern
ment. as authorized by the congress and
executed by the President. There was an
expectation of only one years service at
this time, but no pledge. They had no
choice. They have no choice now as to
going home or remaining on duty at the
end of the twelve months
The Selective Service act itself warned
of a possible extension of training time.
If there is any doubt about the authority
Of the government to continue them in
service, all that is required is another
act of congress, which looks now that
it will be granted. And the men select
the same condition.
Just how much extension of training
congress will require of the embryo SOL
diers, has not been determined. Some
congressman are asking for a six months
extension, some for eighteen months,
some for the duration of the crisis. If
the enlistment time is to be extended
at all it should be for the duration of
the crisis, that will settle the matter as
far as congress is concerned. And do
away with lot of loose language by
loud-speaking senators and others.
Ominous news from the Pacific area
as we'll as across the Atlantic makes us
wonder if after all this country must
take shooting hand in the big scrap.
1t takes longer than q year to train an
efficient army out of a group of raw re-
cruits If we must shoot, let's have our
army trained as efficiently as possible in
the meantime. Let no time limit stand in
the way. The present group of selectees
can stand much more training.

It has been CALLING to have to
sit back and watch Germany in
sinuate itself into American coun-
tries by means which the United
States dislikes to adopt and for
which it has small talent.
But there is good hope today
that the Germans have badly over
played their hand. The very arrog-
ance and effrontery which served
them SO we'll up to point is now
beginning to trip them up.
Bolivia stood for a lot. But when
letters were found from their own
military attache in Berlin to the
German ambassador at La Paz de-
failing plans for a military coup,
the Bolivians called halt, and
called it in words of one syllable
Next piece of Nazi effrontery was
a circular letter to all Latin Amer
lean governments demanding that
they protest against the action of
the United States in stopping Ship
ment of American goods to Nazi
agents in Latin countries. Such
cool crust has seldom been seen in
diplomatic circles-at least not
since Berlin was promising Mexico
most of the American southwest in
return for support in the World
War.
But the MeXicans, who are a
proud people, know how to answer
a request that Berlin dictate its
foreign policy. With the smooth and
delightful language which has dis
tinguished Mexican diplomatic cor
respondence in late years, Mexico
replied to the Germans that she
