In spite of labor difficulties ane
shortages of many materials, there

Some Of these are in powder, OF
paste form, to save shipping space
and need only to be mixed with
water and applied. Following direc-
tions for mixing and application
assures success, as these paints are
famously easy to apply. Their use
for large wall spaces or over wall

may then be used for woodwork.

the results are worth the effort. In
the meantime, old dark floors may be
freshened with small amount Of

wiped on with q cloth to restore
worn areas. When dry, the surface
may be waxed and the result Is a

be scrubbed with steel wool and

able 1t viii take about gallon per

the fluid takes up all dirt, soil
and old wax. Pick UP the residue on

may be waxed and polished.

citation reported, disclosed that these
estimates probably are running
three times too high.
Estimates Below Needs.
Significantly, the real estate board
estimates for new postwar housing
likely te. be constructed do not equal
the present shortage Of dwelling
space. The survey indicated that
the present shortage of dwellings Is
running at the rate Of eight single
family houses per 1000 Of popula-
ton and three apartment units per
1000, a total shortage of II units
per 1000 Of population. Despite
this shortage, the most severe on re-
cord, the boards do not anticipate
that enough new houses will be built
to take up completely the theoretical
need.
Commenting on the results of the
survey, Herbert u. Nelson, executive
vice president Of the association,
said:
Careful checking by local real
estate yards indicates that the talk
about a huge Rebuilding boom
after the war may be an illusion.
So far, most estimates have been in
boxcar figures-upwards Of 1,000, 900
units. Our study casts doubt on
such optimistic forecasts.
Due for Disappointment.
"It is apparent that II the Nation
is depending largely upon home
building as means Of substantial
economic recovery after the war, 1t
is due for disappointment. It seems
clear that home building will have
to be coupled with other construc-
ton, II we are to count on recovery
through construction programs.
This means that we should go be-
yond merely building housing and
redevelor our cities on broad scale.
"Only through a real urban rede-
velopment and rebuilding program
embracing all types of building can
we hope to stimulate real recovery.
The plain truth is that we cannot
count on home building alone to
produce what many expect"

decayed near-in portions Of our
cities, and their Transformation into

ern neighborhoods is now under |

Speaking on housing after the war,
Douglas Whitlock. president OF the
producers council said, "if our post
war economy is such as to provide
practically full employment, as has
been widely predicted, there will be
no need to build public housing
merely for the sake Of keeping idle
men at work. Furthermore, with a
high level Of employment, there will
be comparatively fewer families
unable to pay adequate rentals for
dwellings meeting minimum stand
ards"

the National Association OF Real
Estate Boards
A national survey of expert real
estate opinion indicates that the
huge estimates Of housing to be
built III the postwar period may be
Largely wishful thinking, the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards said today.
The association, in its AID semi
annual survey of the real estate
market, asked local real estate
boards to make a close check Of the
number OF houses likely to be built
in their communities after the war.
Replies from 376 cities in all parts
OF the country indicated that the
number which actually may be built
win average around 100000 annu-
ally for the first 10 postwar years.
This is in sharp contrast to other
current estimates of potential house
construction being circulated. Most
of these estimates average more
than 1000, 900 units year. Careful

New Union Busting Racket Exposed
 By Labor Board

Self-styled labor relations organi- zationS, protesting to give manage ments "expert" information on la- bor problems-at fancy prices have bloSSomed out in record num- bers during the past few years.
 Some are merely "rackets," but others are disguised "union-bust- ing" outfits, judging from finding made this week by a National La- bor Relations Board trial examiner, Charles E. Parsons.
 Parsons was assigned by the board to investigate charges filed by the United Construction Work CTS, a division of the United Mine Workers, that the National Lime and Stone Company, Carey. Ohio, aided by the Labor Relations In- stitute" of New York, had sought to break the unions hold on the plant. On It's face, the institute claims to serve 1000 employers with in- formation on wage stabilization contract negotiations, merit rating systems, labor surveys and the like
 However. the trial examiner found that in this case agents o1

Evil Forces Still at Work
 The report strongly deplores the fact that forces are still at work att tempting to arouse antagonism against unions. It condemns the press and radio for being too often either "hypercritical" or hostile" toward labor, and cites the La Fol- lette Civil Liberties Committee re- ports as showing that powerful employers are still scheming to smash labor's rights.
 There are strong and determined groups who would like to see the rights of labor, which have been won with such difficulty, either denied or reduced to an empty phrase" the report warned.
 Labor organizations are described as a cornerstone of freedom and security for the worker.
 Tt is natural" the report said. I"that the individual worker should turn to unionism, with its promise of job improvement and security, a voice in the establishment of oth- CT rights for him in his life'S work.
 Investment in Personality
 The strongest justification of the labor union to the man who works is spiritual one; namely, the Satis- faction which it gives to his deep sense of wanting to belong. As a member of union the modern

rise for any significant number is to help the standard of living for all. For democracy to extend It. self into industry is to strengthen the fabric of democracy within the nations life as a whole"
 Leaders Declared Sincere
 Some occasional abuses within the ranks of organized labor were cited, but the church emphatically opposed anti-labor legislation as a means of dealing with such in- stances. Instead, it proposed CO., operation with the leaders of la- Dor to bring about improvements.
 The church made 1t clear 1t was convinced that "the great major ity of the members and leaders of organized labor are sincere, con- scientious, and increasingly con- cerned with the welfare of the whole community"
 The report wound up with a plea for an economic order along the lines sought by labor-namely, full employment; high living standards; a socially adequate wage as the first charge against the earnings ot any business enterprise; abolition of the fear of want" through strengthened social security; equal ity for all, regardless of race and creed, and international collabora- tion for raising of economic stand ards.

worker gains a new investment of personality. He helps to formulate policies and decisions that affect the conditions of life under which he works.
 "The union affords a construc- tive outlet for his resentment against injustice and his demand for fair play.
 Labor unions have been instru- mental in achieving higher stand ard of living and in improving working conditions. They have helped to obtain safety and health measures; to achieve greater pro- lection against child labor; to re- lieve the disabled, sick, unem- ployed; to gain a more equitable share of what they produce"
 Bettered Life of Millions
 The church conceded that labor has suffered at times from faults common to human beings as a whole, but it insisted that "partici- patton in labor unions has bettered the life of millions of industrial workers, both materially and spirit ually."
 Raising substandard wages means more milk for children the report stressed. "The cuShioning of the hardships of unemployment or illness has far-reaching repercuS- sionS upon the home and family.
 "In these facts the church re- joices, but it's rejoicing is also In the fact that what has been good for members of unions has been good also for the industrial work CT outside of the union and for those outside industry itself.
 For the standard of living to

the Institute, hired by the company, sought to prevail on the workers to reject the Mine Workers and set up a dummy independent" union instead.
 As a result, the examiner re- commended to the full board that 1t find both the company and the in- stitute guilty of violating the Wagner Act, and order them to stop interfering with the right of the workers to organize as they see fit.
