New Era Seen
in Building
Modern Trend
10 Depicted

A trend is developing toward
new era In building in Amer
lea, which for lack of q better
or less all-inclusive term, Is
called modern"
The distinguishing character
istics Of this style, according to
Practical Builder, are Z return
ing emphasis upon the horizon
tai in line and mass design, and
lack Of the old-time heavy cor
nfces and high-pitched roofs.
The modern house il planned
from the inside out, In the be-
lief that the best arrangement
is to adapt the exterior to the
planned interior design.
Most modern houses stress the
"open" plan-that IS a minimum
OF partitions with certain areas
sometimes separated by folding
doors or removable partitions,
so that various rooms can be
combined when the occasion re-
quires.
The traditional house has al
ready proven as a durable, COM
comfortable plan. Even in 50 con-
ventional a house as q Cape Cod
design, the influence of the mod
ern is being left in larger win
dow areas and a more open in
terror.
Again. as with so many other
decisions regarding the home,
locality will play an important
role as a decisive factor.

building boom. according to Paul
S. Van Auken, convention chair
man.
The "packaged Kitchen" one
of the exposition highlights, con-
sists of a prefabricated line Of
IL steel units, including sinks
and cabinets. The kitchen can be
purchased as unit or piece by
piece, and is fitted into place
rather than built in.
A new line of refrigerators
combining all the improvements
kept under wraps by the war
will be unveiled. 1t is this mach
inc from which single ice cubes
can be taken. Among its fea-
tures is storage space for is
pounds Of meat.
Another exhibit will be the
Laundromat-a machine which
washes, rinses and partially drys
clothes in single unit. Equip
ped with electric controls, all
it demands Of the housewife Is
that she place the soiled clothes
inside, add soap, set the dials
and forget about it. The mach
inc fills itself with water, wash
es the clothes, and at the end
of the operation cleans itself
off.
A companion piece. identical
in shape and size, is the electric
dryer which eliminates the un-
slightly backyard clothes line
and the washday weight lifting
routine.
A kitchen improvement is the
Waste-Away garbage disposer
1t replaces the old style kitchen
drain pipe with an electrically
driven shaft to which is attach
e d shred ding device. T h e
shredder reduces food wastes to
a fine pulp that is washed down
the drain. A self-cleaning device
prevents odors. The machine is
adaptable to any sewer system.
The "packaged m ort g ag e"
will absorb the cost of all these
marvels that make life easier.
Instead of wrestling with doz-
en- installment accounts c h
month and paying high carry
ing charges, the cost of home
equipment is added to the mort
gage loan and payments are
spread over the life of the mort
gage.

Music Fund Created
for Younger Talent
Non-Profit Group

SAN FRANCISCO W.H-Louis
P. Gainsborough, president Of
the Legin Corporation, interna-
tional trading organization here,
announced the establishment OF
the Gainsborough Music Foun-
dation to find and assist talent
ed young men and women in
their musical education and to
give them the opportunity of ap-
pearing with some of the great
orchestras of the world.
The foundation, a non-profit
organization incorporated under
the laws of California, has been
endowned with a substantial
sum of money by Mr.. Gainsbor-
ough. He intends to contribute a
portion of the profits of his
worldwide import and export
business to the new enterprise.
The Gainsborough Music c
Foundation will have no restric.
tions as to race, creed or color.
To emphasize this fact, repre-
Sentatives of all of the religious
and labor groups and leaders in
the field of education and busl-
ness will be named to the ex-
ecutive committee.
The activities of the Founda-
ton will be worldwide in scope
and will give concerts in San
Francisco, New York. Holly
wood, Lon lon, Buenos Aires,
Rio de Janeiro and other cities.
Another objective of the Foun-
dation will be to encourage the
establishment of a youth SYM
phony orchestra in California,
which, however, would either
have to be supported by the
state or by private subscription,
with the Gainsborough Founda-
ton as one of its contributors.

Construction
Seen Topping
7 Billion Mark

The supply OF building mate
rials and equipment next year
should be sufficient to permit
the volume of new construction
to exceed seven billion dollars
provided production is not un-
duly delayed by wage and pric-
ing problems, according 10
James W. Follin, managing di-
rector of the Producers Council.
Despite reconversion prob
lens, manufacturers Of most
building products needed for the
construction Of new homes, fac
tories, hospitals, schools ana
other structures report that
production already has reached
the 1910 rate or will reach it
within six months or less" Fol-
lin said.
Barring unexpected develop
ments, most Of the current
shortages in materials and equip
ment will be overcome by or
before April 1, 1916, when
building is expected to get un-
der way on a large scale.
"INASMUCH as relatively lit
tie new construction may be
started during the next five
months, supplies of building pro-
ducts will gradually increase
during that period. In fact, by
the first Of the year the produc-
ton of many items will be great
er than the amount currently
being used at that time.
"The products which prob
ably will not be in production
at the 1940 rate within six
months are stock millwork, ma
jor electrical appliances, enam-
eledware plumbing fixtures, and
boilers and radiators.
"Inasmuch as plumbing fix
lures, heating equipment and
household appliances such as
ranges and refrigerators need
not be installed until new dwell
ings are near completion, the
fact that these items will require
a somewhat longer time than
other products to reach the 1910
production rate should not seri-
ously delay residential construc-
tion."

herself, her covered wagon
three horses and four goats on
q steamer bound for Seward,
ending a five-year right to con-
quer the thousands of miles that
separated her from her goal.
Driving the wagon carrying
two goats, Mrs. Mathers set out
for Canada and Alaska from her
Wyoming home on Thanksgiv
ing Day, 1910. She was turned
back at Sumas, Wash, by border
officials, who made the overland
journey.
She lived for q time in central
Washington and later worked
at Conrad, Mont, until she could
afford to hire a truck to bring
her and her animals-increased
by two goats and a colt-and
gear to Seattle. In the meantime
she tried In vain to get permis-
sion to travel the Alcan highway
and even wrote to Canadian
Prime Minister Mackenzie King.
We'll get off a Seward" said
Mrs. Mathers. "Then I'll hitch up
my team and find me q home.
Whatever I find up there will be
soft to what I've seen."

here to free America to escape from lot worse
than the Negroes, and in few short years be-
come so arrogant, so deluded with the myth Of
whiteness that they join in kicking the Negro
American in the teeth Just because he is not
white. The bitter housing fights in Buffalo and
Detroit, to name only two places, came about
chiefly because Poles did not want Negroes to
have decent housing. The people who few
short years ago had lived in mud huts sharing
their miserable quarters with livestock, now tell
Negroes, who have fought and died for this
country, where they may and may not live.
The same holds true for the Slovaks, the Hun
garans, and the other Southern Europeans. II
holds good, also, for the Mexicans. II does no
good to pretend, in the interest of false racial
amity, that Negroes are not bitter against these
