Rags and Resin
Substitute for
| Steel Sheets

Rags and resin have been COM
bined into q war emergency building
material substitute for corrugated
steel sheets. Called corrugated
asphalt siding, a new product re-
Gently placed on the market by the
Celotex. Corp, it is being used for
both Government and private con-
struction.
The new product is designed for
wartime application on industrial,
commercial and farm buildings. 1t
can replace corrugated steel sheets
used for covering outside walls Of
temporary structures of all kinds, in
cluding factory buildings, ware
houses, storage and machine sheds,
dairy barns and drying sheds.
Corrugated asphalt siding consists
Of two sheets Of heavy felt saturated
with recently developed resino-
bituminous compound. The sheets
are bound together with a high
melting point asphalt adhesive and
corrugated under high pressure.
The finished sheets are hard,
rigid, light in weight and moisture
proof. They retain their stiffness
and corrugations In summer weather
because Of the high melting point,
wear-resistant resins used In the
saturating process.

Mortgage Bankers Favor
Tax |nteqration Board

Asserting that the more than 1861
600 Government units with taxing
power in this country could easily
be reduced about 80 per cent. or to
around 10000, If public opinion
would demand 1t. Charles A. Null
lenix, president Of the Mortgage
Bankers Association OF America,
announced recently the organization
will support legislation to establish
a commission on tax integration to
study local, State and Federal tax
systems and seek to eliminate all
possible overlapping.
The association membership voted
to support the measure at the an
nual meeting in Chicago. The
greatest benefit now and in the post
war period would be in cutting in
efficiency in State and local systems,
he said, creation of Federal tax
body to make complete study of
the maze of taxing bodies is the
first step looking to any lasting tax
reform in this country, he added.
"All States, I believe, should adopt
the sensible overall property tax
limitation so real property will cease
to be the always dependable source
for levying higher taxes" Mr.. Null
lenix said. Assessment procedure
must be modernized so taxable value
will at least have some relation to
productivity. Any fair study will
reveal that real property is carrying
a heavier tax burden than other
forms Of wealth, and the danger is
very real that an even greater
burden may be placed on it.

CouIking Urged
To Help Reduce
Use of Fuel

Caulking compounds, which are
made In various forms and colors,
commonly white, gray or black, can
be an important factor in saving
fuel this coming winter, If applied
promptly to all cracks and chinks
around windows, doors, sills and
foundations, and to cracks in walls,
regardless Of whether they be of
wood, brick, stucco or masonry.
Caulking compound Is packaged
IN various ways by the different
manufacturers. 1t comes in cans in
special containers intended for use
in certain types of caulking guns,
and in cbes.
For large jobs on long straight
cracks, caulking gun can be loaded
with compound, which is then
expelled into the cracks by pulling a
trigger. Or, it may be pressed into
a crack with putty knife and then
smoothed down. The purpose is
to seal the exterior Of the crack
rather than to attempt to fill the
crack completely.
Generally, caulking compound is
so prepared that it forms a hard
film on the surface of the crack,
which may be readily painted, when
dry, while beneath the film the
compound remains relatively soft
and expands and contracts in ac-
cordance with changing tempera-
lures.

NAL shock. They are further
strengthened by a special method of
clampng them into the sink top.
The five models being made have
a center bowl with counter tops ON
either side of maple or linoleum.
The doors are built so they will not
bind or warp. Drawers are dove
tailed. The exterior of the cabinets
Is a white synthetic enamel, which
wears exceptionally well. Hard
pressed fiberboard, which is mois-
ure-resistant, forms bottom and
backs.
The largest cabinet. which is so
inches long. has six drawers and
large cupboard space. Two drawers
are divided for cutlery; one is metal
lined for breads and pastry. In
cluded in this model are q wire pan
rack, metal soap tray and sliding
wire shelf to make stored things
more accessible. Other cabinets are
81 and AZ inches long. They range
in price from $74.60 to $l26.70. These
prices, however. do not include
faucets and strainers.

Slip Covers Give Color
To Dining Rooms

Bright color may be introduced
into the dining room by chair slip
covers. Not the usual busters"
which are used in the summer-but
colorful seats and backs which are
important in themselves.
Quilted chintz is most attractive
for this purpose. Selected in 4 shade
which matches a color in the dra-
peries or corresponds to the rug
tone 1t accents the color scheme
all around the room.
Slip-seat chairs may have tho
screws removed and the chints put
on right over the leather seats.
Others may have sleek slip covers
fitted down over the frame and tied
at each leg. Square topped backs
may be fitted snugly and laced up
to keep them smooth. Fan or shield
shapes may have fitted pads mads
and tied in place.

Sink Cabinet Combination.

You do not need to put off kitchen
remodeling because metal kitchen
cabinets are not being manufac-

offers good-looking sink-and-cabi-

which provides the style, convenience
and space necessary to a good re-

In making the sink cabinet COM

been given to elimination of materi-

Make Over Your Guest Room
For Newcomers in War Work

Making room in crowded Wash
ington for out Of towners who have
come to work here boils down to
good old-fashioned hospitality.
All over America guest rooms,
spare rooms and attics are being put
to new and useful purpose. Over
night they have become transformed
from idle waste space to living
quarters which spell "home" to thou
sands of defense workers.
Did you think that making spare
room really rentable would cost 80
much in the way of new furniture
that your prospective income would
melt away before present outlay?
Hundreds OF women are finding that
with q little ingenuity they could
achieve very attractive effects at
very little cost. The trick is to dig
out of storage all the forgotten mis-
cellaneous pieces which you have
considered beyond use for years.
Good Bed Essential.
The first requisite for the room is
q good, comfortable bed. After that
other necessities are relatively easy.
Some place in your house there is
undoubtedly an old chest. Covered
with one Of the new quick-drying
paints or with sample roll OF wall
paper you have solved the need for
drawer space very nicely. Complete
absence Of a closet can be overcome
too. Simply install good, stout rod
across one corner of the room, hang
from it one of these smart draperies
decorators use-and there you are!
How about the fabric for the dra-
perry? That's where your treasure
hunt comes in. There are probably
a good many yards Of unused ma
terial lying about your house right
now. How about those couch covers
you discarded when you did over
juniors room?
What about those draperies from
the living room in your last house,
the ones you could never quite find
place for when you moved. And
while you are at it keep an eye
peeled for larger pieces. Haven't
you an old arm chair somewhere,
comfortable, but 50 soiled along the
arms and head rest that 1t seems

One such safety cloth consists of
tough cotton fabric woven in mesh

transparent plastic. The impreg-

The cloth can be tackled to the

This Is a room that any young
girl would be proud Of and, because
of its small size. is within her ability

Find Tuna Substitutes

The resourcefulness Of the paint
industry has made possible contin-
ued manufacture of quick drying
paints and varnishes. despite the

source of which is China. Improved

given to linseed and soybean oil as
the result of scientific reasearch in

AS THE RATIONING LISTS GROW

|0N DECEMBER 1, gasoline rationng, designed
v to save tires may go into effect The rationin2
plan is not too rigid 1t is elastic and will be ad-
iusted by local gas administrators to fit the mini
|mum needs Of the applicant for a ratoning card
Meat, coffee, and shoes also seem to be slated
to Join sugar tires and gas as scarce commodities
which will be doled out as war time economy
measure.
Comparatively speaking, rationing will not
work undue hardships on us. TO substitute for
beef, pork and bacon there will be large variety
of meats, fowl and fish available, and as a result
our dieting may actually improve from these wal
time food restrictions. Similarity, coffee ratoning
may break the harmful addiction to excessive
drinking Of coffee which is now preveant in
America.
These compulsory restrictions should improve
our character as well as our st0machS, because it
will build up our will to resist indulgence in over
eatng and over-drinking too - since alcoholic
beverages also are on the index of the rationers
Perhaps it takes war time rationing to impress
upon us how easy and lush the average living
standards in the United States have been. In spite
of all the restrictions imposed on us by time
necessities we still are the best dressed the best
nourished and best entertained people on earth
When we do without that second cup of coffee
that eXtra-thick steak, or stay at home because
our gasoline supply is limited let's thank God that
I've are Americans and are being given an oppor-
tunity to prove eve can take it for q cause worth
while.

LABOR POSITION APPROVED
PROPOSALS FOR a manpower draft we

PROPOSALS FOR nanpoWer draft were given
q heavy blow by the report Of the Manage
ment-Labor Policy Committee to the War Man
power Commission chairman. The report backs
the position of organized labor for continuance
Of the voluntary system Of recruiting labor and
against a program of compulsion
Confidence of the committee in voluntary and
democratic methods is shown in the following
quotation from its report
"The committee has confidence that the vol
untaly and cooperative efforts Of the people
under strong leadership on the part Of Govern
ment, management and labor, will provide the
answer to this all-important war manpoWer prob
lem"
The committee reveals, however, that it is
ready to revise its recommendations in the hight
of events to come, saying:
Experiences IN the months which lie ahead
may reveal that the executive branch Of the Gov
crnment requires supplementary authority from
the Congress in order to carry forward the man
power program in an effective manner. The com
mttee therefore will continue the study requested
by the chairman and in the light of accommodating
experiences, will be prepared to make appropriate
recommendations from time to time
1t is significant that the management ano
labor members of the committee all united in sup
port of a voluntary program and in approval OF
