while in other state, failure to
mention certain relatives may in
validate the will.
It is essential that the persons
drawing your will know the size
of your estate, where it is situ-
ated, and accurate description of
the property and in whose name
it stands, whether it is encumbered
by mortgage or otherwise, and
whether investimates and bank ac-
counts are in single or joint names.
Remember, joint property is not
a reason for making no will, but
for making two wills.
How about your life insurance?
If payable to your estate, it will
be taxable. If payable to named
beneficiary, as your wife or your
children, in many state it will not
be taxable; and does not pass by
the terms OF your will. Alternate
beneficiaries should be named in
the event the one first named dies
before you do. If you carry a SUBJ
stantial amount of life insurance,
it might be better to leave this in
trust, rather thai have it paid to
hose inexperienced investing
money.
As to the will itself: Cd Pro.
vide for the payment of debts and
the expensives of administration.
ca Provide for the distribution of
personal and household effects
mentioning specific articles. ,3)
provide for gifts to your church,
favorite charity, friends as well as
to members of your family. Where
such gifts form a substantial part
of the estate it may be better to
give each a percentage of the es-
tate rather than a fixed sumo,
otherwise the main beneficiaries,
who are usually the family, may
get little or nothing. (4) Consider
forming a trust to assure wise man.

you go so that the principal shall
be considered and dependable in
come be provided. The varying
needs of the future can be met
by allowing the trustee to supple
ment income with payments from
principal, whenever advisable. Such
trust makes it possible for one
tax, one executors fee, and one
probate cost to carry your estate
across three generations.
In case you have made will
and want to change it, it is prob
ably safer to make codicil rather
than a new will. Your lawyer will
tell you why. When making such
a codicil, here are few things you
may have forgotten when making
your will. Put these into the CO.

SUNER RECEIVES
u. S. AMBASSADOR
Spanish Foreign Minister
Talks With Carlton
Hayes In Madrid

MADRID, Aug. 30-R)-Foreign
Minister Serrano Sunre yesterday
received United States Ambassa'
dor Carlton J. H. Hayes at the
foreign ministry and later talked
with the ambassadors from Ger
many and Portugal.
The subjects discussed by the
foreign minister and Hayes were
not disclosed. President Roosevelt
proposed Friday for the Americas
to help Spain repair civil war dam
age to her cultural treasures and
stimulate postwar tourist travel
to the Iberian Peninsula.
The presidents suggestions have
not yet been published in Spain, but
they are expected to be well re-
ceived.
(The President told his White
House press conference Friday that
he had talked of the plan with Mel
son Rockefeller. coordinator of In
ter-American affairs.
{The program would be voluntary
and funds would come from contri-
buttons and foundations, Mr..
Roosevelt said, adding that the pro-
gram was predicated on the as
sumption of Spain's neutrality

BARLEY ACREAGE
INCREASES in Nc
Crop Is Being Used For
Winter Grain And VIM
ter, Fall Grazing

Barley, gaining popularity in
North Carolina by leaps and
bounds, reflected a 600 per cent
increase in the past five years,
according to DR.. G. K. Middleton,
agronomist of the Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station at N. c. State
college.
Catching on rapidly as winter
grain crop, barley likewise is be-
ing used quite successfully on
some farms, for fall and winter
grazing. The acreage seeded in
North Carolina has increased from
1000 to $4,000 in the past half
decade. A still further increase
is expected this fall.
Barley, like other grain crops,
does best on fertile, well-drained
soils; on such soils it produces
splendid yields, DR.. Middleton
said. However, on poorly drained
soils it is not as sure crop as
wheat or oats, particularly oats.
In addition to the more fertile
lands, barley is now bieng recon-
mended as substitute for corn
on upland Piedmont soils where
erosion is serious problem.
Under such conditions, the agro-
nomist pointed out, it often be-
comes necessary to take the land
out of cultivation, even though the
feed it has been producing is need
ed. BY shifting to a small grain
lespedeza rotation, the grain sup
ply can be maintained, or even
increased as the fertility of the
soil improves.
If fertilized in the fall at the
same rate as would be used Tor
corn, and top-dressed in February
or early March, barley yields
should be equal or even above
those that would be expected from
corn on the same land.
tdIlctxCS Z VI NA@AA
Rather extensive yield trials
have been conducted in North
Carolina during the past ten
years, using wide range OF bar
ley types and varieties. On
basis of the results obtained, DR..
Middleton said the following
recommendations are made for
the different sections of the state:
Piedmont: Sunrise, Davidson,
Randolph, Iredell.
Mountains: Sunrise, Davidson,
Iredell, Tennessee 6.
Coastal Plain: Sunrise, Iredell,
Davidson, Randolph.
Grazing
When grown for grain, barley
should be seeded in the Piedmont
around the first of October and
about October Is to 20 in the Coas-
tai Plain.
However, if land is available and
can be prepared early, the crop
may be seeded four to six weeks
earlier and provide excellent fall
grazing. This would mean imme-
diate seeding in the Piedmont and
the early part of September in
the Coastal Plain.
Following this practice for the
past three years at the Piedmont
Branch Experiment Station atI
Statesville, barley has provided
an average of 81 COW days of graz
ing per acre, as well as a yield of
"a bushels of grain to the acre in
the spring.
About two-thirds of the grazing
was secured in October, Novem-
ber, and December and the re-
mainder in the winter when the
soil was dry enough to permit.
Grazing after spring growth
starts will probably cut the grain
yield, DR.. Middleton warned. If it
is known that supplemental spring
pasturage will be required, he ad-
vised, it would be better to pro-
vide an extra acreage for this,
rather than grazing too late on
fields that are expected to produce
a crop of grain. /.

Building Contracts Show
Contra Season Gain

Building contracts showed sharp
contra seasonal expansion from
May to June and reached the high
est volume on record. according to
the Alexander Hamilton Institute.
The increase from May to June
this year amounted to TAI per cent
as compared with an average de-
crease of 80 per cent during the last
10 years. On the basis of figures
compiled by the F. w. Dodge Corp.
building contracts In June were 100
per cent larger than in June last
wear, when the total was SO, 3,995 900
square feet.
The increase in building contracts
in June over year ago was confined
entirely to the non-residential field
Non-residential contracts were 1904
per cent larger than in the same
month last year. Residential con-
tracts, on the other hand, showed
q decrease of 27 per cent.
Total contracts during The frs.
six months amounted to 595. .104 900
square feet as compared with 423,-
30S, 900 square feet in the same peri
cd last year, an increase of 40.6
per cent. The present rate of build
ing indicates that the annual vol
ume this year will exceed the pre-
vious high record OF 959 ,320, 900
square feet in 1928.

Declaring that guns and tanks
need metal" Horace Walker, execu-
tive secretary of the District of Co.
lumbia Salvage Committee, War
Production Board, today called on
all owners and managers of apart
ment and office buildings in the
District for help in the Salvage for
Victory" campaign.
Stressing the need for Critical
materials" he asked that every
apartment and office building in the
city be virtually secured for any
materials which may be of value in
the war effort. He emphasized
metals, but also asked for co-opera-
ton in finding rubber and rags.
Text of His Appeal.
Mr.. Walker directed letter to all
owners and managers, pointing out:
"It is suggested that you make a
definite and complete survey Of your
property and report by letter to
this committee as follows: ,-
Il. Ascertain just what materials
can be salvaged:; their approximate
weight and the type of material.
%. Accumulate them at one To-
cation.
"3. Advise this office whether you
wish to give this material or whether
you wish to sell it. A charity cel-
lecting agency or q dealer will be
dispatched as early as is physically
possible.
If you have any material which
Is necessary to dismantle, also in
clude this information in your
letter.
Prices for materials which are
collected, processed, graded and
shipped by dealers will, OF necessity
be considerably reduced from the
actual value of the material at the
consuming mills.
Your patriotism and your con-
science dictate your immediate ac-
| ton now.

By MARGARET NOVEL;.

Salvage is 4 household byword
these days. Every housekeeper
thinks twice before she throws any
thing away. Many OF us are re-
minded of our childhood days, when
grandmother deplored the waste Of
the modern generation.
Brought up in an age when a
thrifty wife was more of an ad-
vantage than beautiful one, she
never could get over the wasteful-
ness of the generation which
earned good" money and turned
it back into circulation again as
quickly as possible. The rugs she
braided from old stockings and
underwear are still in daily use.
The quilts she made from tiny
pieces OF calico from all the chill
dren's dresses are still displayed
with pride by her grandchildren.
A great rug industry has been
founded on this idea, and now when
materials are scarce and priorities
limit all schedules, this concern
still is able to operate because the
wool used in the factory is salvaged.
Rugs are not plentiful, and sizes
and colors are reduced to a mini

20-Year Period
Saw Half Of DC.
Dwellings Built
More Than One-Fifth
Were Erected in
1880 to 40 Decade

Nearly half of all the dwelling
units" inNuding both homes and
apartments in the District were
built during the 20-year period be-
tween 1920 and 1910. according to
q 1910 report by the Bureau of the
Census made public today. More
than ne-fifth of the units were
built in the decade between 1880
and 1910.
About one-seventh 049 per cent?
of the dwelling units in the District
in April, 1940 were built in the s.
wear period 1885 to 1910, while 6.5
per cent were built in 1880 to 1884
and 26.6 per cent in the decade 1920
to 1929
One-fourth of the families in the
District, the report showed, live in
one-family attached structures.
Brick was the principal exterior ma
terial of nearly four-fifths OF the
residential structures. Almost two
thirds of all dwelling units con-
tained from three to six rooms.
Part of Second Series.
The report was part of the Sec
ond Series Housing Bulletin for the
District, based on the 1910 census,
and made public by j. c. Capt, di-
rector of the census. Further re-
suits Of the survey including data
on monthly rent, housing facilities
and equipment, and other material
are to be released in the future, 1t
was explained.
Single-family detached structures
accounted for 15.9 per cent OF the
dwelling units in the District; one
family attached structures con-
tanned 258 per cent of all dwelling
units; 2 to family structures, 23.1
per cent: 5-family or larger struc-
lures. 31.9 per cent, and l to 4 fam
lily structures with business, 80 per
cent.
Nearly four-fifths (78.9 per cent?
Of the residential structures had an
