SUMNER CURTAINS.
BLACK SPOT ON FLOOR?

from Mrs. A. II. H., Arlinoton.)
Here's an idea for summer cur
eaihs: Put one bed sheet on either
end Of your curtain rod. Pull them
over from behind the rod to gather
30 that you have or 6 inch
RUNE at the top. Use wide colored
ribbon for tieback and tie in large,
perky bow. Sort of hard to explain
but very effective and 10 easy.
Does any one know how to remove
black spots made from setting q wet
bag on = hardwood floor?

Sasscer Favors Use
OF ST. John by Navy
By The Associated Press,

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Aug. 16.-Rep-
resentative Sasscer, Democrat, of
Maryland, decrying attempts to es-
tablish a Naval Academy on the
West Coast, is advocating expansion
of the Annapolis institution on the
st. Johns College property as the
only site in this vicinity"
The Representative from the fifth
district gave his views in letters TO
persons, among them Mrs. Morden
Rlgg, chairman of the Committe of
the Hundred Women. who have
written him in opposition to the ac-
QUESTION of st. Johns campus for
academy expansion.
If an attempt is made to establish
two academies, Mr.. Sasscer wrote he
had almost moral certainty" that
the Annapolis school would become
only a specialist or postgraduate
school"
Expressing "strong personal senti-
ment for St. Johns" he stated his
belief that I'VE are at the cross
roads of decision and advocated
that steps be taken to clear the exist
ing situation which he described as
taking the st. Johns College or los
ing the Naval Academy" which he
termed tremendous asset and ad-
vertisement not only to Anne Arun-
del County but also to our State
Mr.. Sasscer wrote that the posi-
bilities of alternative available land
had been fully explored and said
the belief held by the House Naval
Affairs Committee, of which he is
member, was that there was no al
tentative.

0PA Modifies Basis
For Rationinq Tires

Revising program that had
limited issuance of tire ration cer-
tificates to holders of B or C gaso-
line cards, the OPA announced that
hereafter certificates will be granted
on this basis:
l. In Tie case of passenger cars
used for occupational purposes, tires
will continue to be distributed in
accordance with the Importance of
the applicants work.
2. Motorists who use their cars
for pleasure driving will be eligible

cides that denial of an application
would cause undue hardship. The
total of certificates issued to non-
occupational drivers will be held to
5 per cent of each boards monthly
passenger tire quota.
OPA said this limitation is neces-
sary to assure that a sufficient num-
ber of tires are available for essen
tial needs.

airfax Permits Use
OF Clay Sewer Pipes

An amendment to the Fairfax
County Sanitary district ordinance
permitting the use of vitrified clay
pipe instead of cast iron pipe was
adopted yesterday by the Board of
Supervisors.
The amendment will permit
homeowners to substitute the clay
pipe on sewer lines connecting from
dwellings to lateral lines, or the
trunk line sewer system In adopt
ing the change, the board stated
that it is only intended to be eff
fective until cast iron pipe is avail
able again. Builders in the county
had requested the amendment, con-
tending that housing projects were
being delayed because they were
unable to obtain cast iron pipe.
The board granted the applica-
tion of Audrey B. Lee to rezone
from rural residence to rural busi-
ness a tract of land south of the
Lee highway near Centerville. The
application had the approval of the
County Planning Commission.
At the request of Miss Winona

tendent, the board appropriated $500
to the Welfare Department for in
creased assistance to dependent
children.

try killed by dogs was allowed The

New 0PA Rule Seen
As Failing 10 Help
Some Restaurants

Some measure of relief for ration
starved Washington restaurants was
seen today in the Office of Price Ad-
ministration action allowing extra
ration points to places that can show
at least 10 per cent increase in
number of customers served.
OPA ruled that supplemental al
lotments of points would be forth
coming during any two-month ra-
ton period if resterateurs show a
heavier volume of business. Pre-
viously, restaurant had to show at
least 20 per cent increase in oper-
ationS.
This was the first action taken by
the OPA since recent hearings held
by the Senate Small Business Com
mittee disclosed that hundreds of
eating places in many sections were
planning to close for lack of points
A spokesman for the Washington
Restaurant Association said, mean
while, that the OPA action still
would not bail out" many eating
places.
Numerous small operators here
have used all their points since July
/, when all restaurants took 20
per cent cut in ration allotments,
the official said.
He claimed that June 6 an
nouncement by the OPA of the July
l cut assured small operators they
would not feel the reduction. Ac-
cordingly, he said, these men carried
on as in the past, but now find they
have been affected by the change
and are completely out of red points.
I'VE urge that relief be given op-
orators who were unaware of the
drastic 20 per cent cut in allow
ance," he declared.
