POSTWAR PLANS

A recent survey by Fortune Mag
azine on postwar buying plans re-
veals that what the American peo-
pie want above all else are a new
car and a home of their own.
Amidst all the hurly-burly of
war, there apparently burns within
our national breast the steadfast
if somewhat conflicting desire to
go places and to stay put.

SERVlCEMEN..S VOTE
(Santa Monica Outlook

tSanId Monica OullOOh)
The secretaries Of the War and Navy
departments are to be commended Tor
urging upon state governments voting
provision to enable servicemen outside
the United States to vote at least 40 days
before an election. Undoubtedly such
provision is desirable and necessary.
Without it there would be unavoidable
delay in determining election results,
with serious consequences to public busl-
ness and national morale.
Secretaries Stimson and Knox made
these specific requests: Q) That appllca-
tions for a ballot be prepared and dis
tributed officially by the War and Navy
departments, then referred to state e &c
ton officials; (2) that state election Of
ficials accept applications for absentee
ballots or wartime registration any time
before election; (3) that voting material
be designed for air carriage, not exceed
ing 8 of an ounce per voter; (4) that
serviceman's vote be acknowledged by a
commissioned officer or non-com not
lower than a sergeants or the equivalent
Navy rating.
All Of these recommendations are ex-
cellent. Undoubtedly they will be ac-
cepted by the state legislatures and will
enable the servicemen's vote to be handled
with efficiency and dispatch.

Metro -dlodwyn- Mayer has filmed the best-seller novel of the same name by Anna Seghers with fidelity and power and 1t emerges aS one of the seasons most success ful pictures.
 '"The Seventh Gross" is the story of seven prisoners, in protective custody" who escape from Q Ger man concentration camp one rnorn- ing in le30. At that time, long be- fore actual war started, there al- ready were those who realized the scope and meaning of Nazi brutality.
 Only one to make good his escape is George HeiSler, played by Tracy while the others, one by one, are captured and dragged back to prison. Heisier, through tortuoui days and nights, and aided by good and loyal friends, finally makes good his bid for freedom from oppression But he will be back again. the story assures us, again to fight Naz tyranny.

did enough to ruin the influence of the kitchen on family life.
 But if they succeed in taking away the kitchen entirely - home certainly will become nothing but e private hotel-as alarmistS are always predicting 1t is in the pros cess of becoming.
 LEAVE KITCHEN ALONE
 The kitchen Is of first importance in family life. Many Q grown-ups most persistent memories of home are such things as the aroma of frying doughnuts coming from the kitchen, or the beauty of apple pies sitting on the kitchen table to cool, or the after party snacks eaten at the kitchen table.
 And many @ man and woman remembers Q mother most fondly, not in her Sunday best, but in Q kitchen apron - humming aS she went from stove to ice box.
 What kind of memories are you going to have if the mothers of the future haven't any kitchens In which to be queens7 Tn the interest of. family life we wish the designers would leave the kitchen alone--un. less they can do something to make 1t as important aS it once was.

nothing less than Mary Beard Q blessing for the hard-worked home nurse because 1t is more easily changed and cared for.
 The modern studio studio bed with which many homes are now equipped would make a very good substitute for e hospital bed If 1t were elevated on blocks to make 1t Q convenient height. The bed should be raised about six inches, If you can't get wood for bed blocks, you can i'll four large cans almost full of small rocks and sand and place them under the legs of the bed. The higher bed eliminates stepping and reduces the strain on the home nurses back.
 PAD PROTECTS MATTRESS
 Because 1t is very difficult to change Q mattress with e patient on it, protect 1t from becoming wet or soiled by using a thick mattress pad. If there Is likely to be vomlt- ing, hemorrhage, or drainage from wet dressings, or where the use of a bedspan is required you will also need Q rubber sheet or some good substitute for 1t.
 The sanitary sheeting used for baby's beds may be easier to find than rubber sheeting. It will be large enough ct least to cover the part most likely to be soiled. Kitchen oilcloth is often used as a subSti- ute for rubber sheeting, but is no more plentiful at the present time. A piece of an old raincoat of water reSisterlt canvas could be used in c pinch, and when all else fails, you can always utilize newspapers to make pads for protection.

m ade through. Ann StevicE out the war, with various limitations on quantity, type, or materials. Therefore, when manufacturers turn over from military to civilian work, or from limited production to full-time, they'll be expected to meet going prices.
 That means furniture should cost you no more than present furniture, which has been given Q general five per cent increase. Clothing and household textile wares will get only the price rlces already handed out.
 That's the general rule that once of Price Administration policy makers hope will hold these prices to thrifty levels. Some doubters point out, however, that it's likely to cost you more for new furniture and household textile items, because manufacturers will turn first to making their higher priced lines, rather than going in for bargains in the early stages when there won't be enough new goods to go around.
