Realtors Make Plans
To Attend Session

Members of the Washington Real
Estate Board today are making
plans to attend the war conference
OF the National Association of Real
Estate Boards the week of Novem-
Der Is in the Statler Hotel, Cleve-
land, Ohio.
In effect, the session is follow-up
of the conference last fall in ST.
Louis. Local realtors and national
officials OF the association have ex-
pressed a general feeling that much
can be accomplished in this meeting
on not only war housing but post
war plans. Members expect to have
ranking Government officials as
guest speakers to outline prospects
Tor the real estate business-both in
sales and new building.
Claud Livingston, president of the
local group, said today he expected
at least as many Washington dele
gates to attend the Cleveland con-
ference as went to st. Louis. Charles

Building Permits
| Issued Here

Among the many building per-
mits issued this week were As for the
Defense Homes Corp. to erect the
! developmnt known as Naylor Gar
dens in the area around Thirtieth
street and Naylor road Sc. The de-
velopment was completed some time
ago and has been occupied.
Robert H. Davis, District building
inspector, today explained the situa-
ton by saving that previously par
tial permits" had been issued to ex-
pedite the work. The regular per-
mits issued this week. according to
Mr.. Davis, were "for the District
records"
He said that this was merely done
to straighten out the final records
of the office. The partial permits
did not show the part and parcel To-
cations of the dwellings since the
location was large piece of unde-
veloped land without streets and
other definite locations" he added
The same thing was done to speed
work on the Mclean Gardens hous-
ing project on Wisconsin avenue,
Mr.. Davis pointed out. Partial per-
mits were awarded for each section
of unit as work progressed from
groundbreaking through the various
construction stages.
The Charles H. Tompkins Co, 90T
Sixteenth street NV, was builder
of Naylor Gardens and Kenneth
Franzheim, 728 Seventeenth street
NV, was architect of the brick and
wood multi-unit apartments. Esti-
mated cost was about $1,000 900, ii

He had been sent to train these
pilots and map the airlanes they
were to fly. No Transportation sys-
tenn involving boats was possible be-
cause the rubber, which is 30 Der
cent of the total mass of all syn-
thethic rubber, was needed at once
Mr.. Knight was forced because
OF bad weather to parallel the upper
coast OF South American in an at
tempt to get over the mountains into
the river region. Mountains on the
east coast are frequently $4,000 feet
high, he said. He headed due west
and landed at Lima after a trip
that almost exhausted his fuel.

Mr.. Knight later recruited parties
of Spanish and Portuguese work
men who were flown into the wild
rubber areas. Flights as frequent
as three times a week thereafter
were necessary to keep these men
supplied with food.

Ice operates, Mr.. Knight said, is the

Since a whole new crop of home
builders Is now being created
through the accumulation of War
bonds, many of them can eradicate
postbuilding headaches by advance
planning. AS opposed to normal
times, there is now plenty of time
to work out on paper this cost elm
mating process.
Standard comment am, mem
bers of family who hav> uilt a
home is that you have to - three
house jobs in order to get one that
exactly fits your needs. For most
OF us this Is an expensive expert
ment, which can be alleviated bv
the simple expedient of building the
first two in miniature.
Build model of your house with
cardboard cutouts of your present
or prospective furniture. This is
more fun than making model boats
or alrplanes as it has a definite per-
sonal value and interest.
Here are the things you will need:
A quarter-inch scale plan, model
of the house, the cardboard furni-
ture cutouts, a plot plan for the
development of your lot if you have
one, a detailed answer to the pro-
posed specifications of the house
and study of color schemes. This
latter is often left until the house
is up, and being hurriedly con-
cluded. sometimes has most unfor-
tunate results.
What are your pet peeves in your
house? Here are a few common
annoyances most often mentioned
by householders: In the kitchen-a
sink that Is too low or too high,
space in general not planned for
greatest efficiency or convenience,
not enough cupboards placed for
easy access to both kitchen and din
ing room, not enough drawer space,
no closet for brooms and cleaning
equipment and improper ventilation.
Any one of these points might be
easily corrected in the original plans,
but most of them are expensive and
difficult to install after permanent
kitchen equipment is in place.
Other annoyances throughout the
house are not enough closets. those
that are too small, too dark or with

Accessible in Brazil by
Plane, Pilot Reports

Jack Knight, veteran pilot with
nearly 10000 hours in the air, Just
back from mapping $4,000 miles of
airline in the Brazilian basin for
the Rubber Development Corp. of
the Reconstruction Finance Corp,
said today that Brazil can supply
all the civilian peacetime rubber
needs of America from wild rubber
tracts accessible to fleets of cargo
carrying planes.
Planes can't do it forever,
though" he said. Some use must
be made of the IL to Is mile an
hour current of the Amazon itself
in small boats with a high free
board. Shutting these craft back
and forth between the upper and
lower Amazon regions will insure
constant supply of rubber. In
spite OF the obstacles of unfriendly
natives and scarce landing fields,
it can be done"
Now a senior air inspector for
the Civil Aeronautics Authority,
Mr.. Knight said that between 200
and 300 tons of raw rubber are
flown every month to Miami from
Belem at the mouth of the Amazon
via Kingston, Jamaica.
rs Per Cent to Other Countries.
But an additional 10 per cent
goes to Peru, and another Is per
cent is handed over to the Brazilian
government" Mr.. knight said,
although all research and develop
ment of air-borne rubber transport
system was pioneered by Ameri-
cans"
Planning necessary to locate river
settlements for the early processing
OF the rubber and locating airfields
where it might be picked up in
PLY patrol planes were carried on
under great difficulty. Tribes of
headhunters still infest the remote
reaches of the upper Amazon. and
available South American airfields
are so small-2,600 and 2,700 feet
long-that they are definitely

ments are often damp, with ceiling
that is too low for any development,
such as playroom, recreation room
or workshop. Often they are dark
with insufficient headroom and no
handrail on the stairs.
The attic often has no floor, not
enough light, no storage closet. The
bathroom may have insufficient cleo
trio outlets, no linen closet, no closet
for storage of soap cleaning powders
and such, which are in daily use.
Perhaps there are not enough towel
racks or permanent equipment.
Electrical outlets all through the
house take considerable study. This
Is another item that is expensive
and annoying to install after the
house is completed Even if pro-
longed angling for wires is possible
the electric contractors time and
materials are expensive, and it is
very likely that he will not be able to
reach conduits without going
through walls or floors, which means

These are only few of the manv
small items which make our homes
comfortable and live up to the
dreams we all have of home of our
own, or the opposite.
Bear in mind, too, that spring is
usually the best building time of the
year. Your house should be of
simple design. Good building ma
terials cost less in the long run and
house which is planned to make
future additions possible is wise
planning. These precautions when
building time comes. plus a mini
ature model house for guidance, will
enable you to approach house build
ing without the usual oualms and
hasty last-minute decisions which
so often presage regrets almost as
soon as the house is completed.
Because it is not mechanical 1t Is
quite possible the home building in
dustry will be among the first to
return to civilian pursuits at the
close OF the war. With your plans
complete. many of the pitfalls al
ready noted and corrected, you may
have your home much more quicker
than supposed.

Lieut.. Col. Evans Fordyce Carlson, the
United States Marine Corps outstanding
expert on guerilla warfare is home on
leave for the first time in two years.
Colonel Carlson, a tall lean, Connecticut
Yankee, is the leader of Carlsons Raid
ers. a small and select band of Marines
trained as a crack striking force for spec
ial operations Carlson's Raiders dis
tinguished themselves in the action which
snatched Maxim Island from the Japan
ese and later at Guadalcanal. They won
one of the Marine Corps two unit
citations for their achievements. Sixteen
enlisted men of the relatively small or
gainization have won commissions on the
battlefield.
Colonel Carlson. who for two years was
ali observer with the Chinese armies
fighting the japanese before the United
States got into the struggle, knows the
Japs. and he has trained his men accord
ingly. The japanese soldier in the ranks,
he says, lacks initiative and resourceful-
ness despite his habit of fighting to death
rather than surrender.
Initiative and resourcefulneSs are what
Colonel Carlson has developed to an i'm
pressive degree among the men in his
unit He builds teamwork by taking all
his men into his confidence and he believ-
es in equality between officers and men in
all things except command. Rank never
meant a thing to me" he said. He has
the respect of all the men who have
