But the most startling changes in
bedclOthes may come from a newly
invented type of rubber wIticfi does
exactly what rubber isn't supposed
TO do. For great many years one
of the most common uses of rubber
has been 10 insulate wires which
carry electricity but this Dr. Jekyll.
Mr.. Hyde variety is as good a con-
ductor of heat or electrical current
as copper.
On a cold night, with the steam
turned off and the windows open, il
might be very coZy under a rubber
blanket which has been plugged into
light outlet and oOZes warmth like
a rubber tree ooZcS lateX.
Some of the more advanced plan
ners are already talking about using
this sort of rubber for walls, floors
and even ceilings, so that radiators
can be relegated to the limbo OF the
pot-stove and rooms can be heated
evenly from every direction.
Noise would be at a minimum in
a rubberized home of the future

Designers are working on pre-
fabricated houses that Will be- built
without nail or screw, that will
have all their parts - steel wood,
stone, glass bonded together with
rubber cement.
Inside, the floors. the walls and
even the wallpaper may be made of
rubber or covered with it, Furniture
can be upholstered with a rubberized
fabric and stuffed with a foam.like
form OF rubber made by whipping
up nitrogen bubbles in latex This
substance resists acids, water, oil,
termites and vermin, and is lighter
than sponge.
The beds probably will have their
share OF rubber, too That cushiony
bubble.rubber is nice stuff to sleep
on, whether it's mattress or a pill
low, and folks who have tried il out
say this is the first time they knew
that a rubber tree and an elder had
anything in common.

Already America is making more

Street vibrations and traffic noises
would be cut to nothing If rubber
composition blocks were used as paw
ing. London used this method several
years ago at a corner where the vi
brations were destroying nearby
buildings, and in Malaga satisfactory
results have been achieved with eX-
perimeptal- rubber roads,
That step probably won't be nee
eSSary, however, since automobile
tires are due for such terrific inn
provements. By 1855, it is predicted,
tires will be guaranteed, like another
well.known product mot for years,
not for life, but forever" You won't
be buying new tires for your car;
you'll be buying a new car for your
tires. Long before that tires that
have a life expectancy of 100000
miles may be commonplace.
They'll be puncture-proof, too, not
only because they're armor-plated (by
using steel threads instead of cotton
or rayon in the fabric) but because
they'll be lined with a sort of rubber
dough that plugs up all leaks as in
the case of wartime self-sealing gaSo-
line tanks.
All motor vehicles may float
along on "torsion rubber springs"
similar TO those on landing barges

rubber sandwiched between a steel

that the rubber manufacturers aren't
talking about making. Rubber dishes,
cups and tumblers, for example -
maybe not so attractive to look at
but awfully easy 10 wash and just
too bouncy for words when you drop
them And rubber accessories for
women, handbags so simple to keep
clean), shoes and even jewelry.
OF course, everything can be car
ried to extremes. They're even dis.
cussing the manufacture of rubber
beds for COWS that get mastitis from
sleeping on concrete floors. That's
really stretching things little far.

Fiscal Affairs Group
May Act on Question
OF TeIevision lowers

Chairman Murphy of the Fiscal
Affairs Subcommittee of the House
District Committee indicated today
his group would act soon on issues
developed at extended hearings yes
terday over the location and height
rof television towers to be erected in
the District.
Possibly indicating the attitude
gained by subcommitteemen from
hours of general and technical de-
bate over two pending televisior
station applications, he said the
first question was whether the Dis
trict Committee should take any
action, or had jurisdiction.
Maj. Gen. U. S.'Grant, Sd, chair
man of the Park and Planning Com
mission. and John Nolen, jr., the
agencys director of planning, both
strongly opposed any legislative
move to open the parks to televisior
tower use, as urged by some civic
witnesses.
1T would be an extremely dan
gerous precedent" said Gen. Grant
If this were done, he added, it is
likely one of. the best locations
would be Fort Reno Recreation
Center, not far from the location
selected by the Bamberger Broad
casting Service, Inc, at Fortieth
and Brandywine streets NV, fol
its projected tower and station. To
put the station in the recreation
area, he said, would place it nea1
a larger number of homes and de-
lprive the area of some of its park
land.
A proposal that the committee
cali for general city-wide refer
endum on location Of television
towers in residential areas or the
parks was offered by A. j. Driscoll
a member of the Connecticut Ave-
nue. Citizens Association. He ap-
peared to oppose the plan of the
National Broadcasting Co. to erect
it's tower near Wardman Park Hotel
D. B. Guynn of the Friendship
Heights Citizens Association urged
that towers be permitted in Meridi-
an Hill Park or in the park area
at Sixteenth and Kennedy streets
as alternatives to sites in residential
zones.
Raymond Guy, NBC technical
adviser, and j. r. Poppele, Bam-
berger engineer, contended because
of the nature of television, good
reception could not be obtained II,
lcongested city areas If sending
stations were placed in more distant
suburban areas.

Veteran Who Hopes to Wed
Pole Can't Get Passport Here
Still Intends to Go
To Germany to Find
Her, Ex-Sergeont Says

Frank J. Kraker, who holds a
Silver Star. arrived in Washington
from Cleveland today bent on find
ing a way to return to Germany
and marry his Polish sweetheart
He ran into trouble Immediately.
The former sergeant with Gen
Patton's Sd Army went to see Rep
resentative Feighan, Democrat, OF
Ohio, who was doubtful that he
would have any success. Mr.. Feighan
spoke to a colonel at the War De-
partment and was told that Mr.
Kraker should have asked for his
passport in Cleveland.
"In Cleveland they told me I
would have to come to Washington
to get a passport" the ex-sergeant
said. Here they tell me to go back
to Cleveland. But I am going to
get to Germany no matter how
much trouble it takes"
Mr.. Kraker, %, met Cecylia Lam
ska, Polish girl who spent four
years as German slave working in
a radio factory, near Buchenwald
concentration camp.
II was riding a motorcycle" he
recalled. Il had Polish boy with
me. The darned thing broke down
and I was trying to fit it. This Po-
lish boy got to talking to a girl. I
didn't pay any attention. Then I
looked up
1t was love at first sight. The
20-year-old girl was wearing boys
pants. She had no makeup and he
was struck by her simplicity and
her smile.

Man Accused Of Theft
After Wild Taxi Ride

A taxicab was wrecked and Albert
Baxter Talbot of Petersburg, Va.
was charged with grand larceny
after wild ride on Route so from
Alexandria to Lincolnia today, Alex

Policemen Andrew Hall and Rob-
ert Jones were in a filling station

Dana Crick, 1405 Rhode Island ave-
nue. NV, cab driver, came in to pay

Mr.. Hall saw the taxi pull out oi

The Why Of 1t
All Agency Budgets
Have Been Revised

fQuestions and anSwers sup
piled by the Community War
Fund.
@. Were budgets of Community
War Fund agencies reviewed after
the surrender of Japan?
A. Yes. Both local and National
War Fund budgets were reviewed
and revised after Japan's surrender
4 @. What was the result of these
budget studies?
A. The National War Fund Budget
Committee had previously reduced
requests totaling $141 900 600 to a
campaign goal of $115, 1000, 600, to be
used in IL months starting October
j, 1945. After Japan surrendered
the National War Fund reviewed its
budget SO as to make the IL months
total do for Is months, to December
81, 1916, thus in effect reducing the
budget by 20 per cent.
The Community War Fund main
tanned its goal of 4,970, 900 because
that goal was set with the probable
end of the war in mind, and the
Budget Committees of the member
ComMunity Chests and of the Com
muity War Fund had already pared
down agency requests by 81 ,230 900
TO the very minimum.

II CoIored Firemen Sue
Brotherhood, RAILWAYS

Eleven colored railroad firemen
have filed suit in District Court
against rs railroads and terminal
companies, the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotive Firemen and Engineers
and the National Railway Media
ton Board in an effort to set aside
an agreement which is said to ex-
clude colored firemen from serving
on Diesel engines.
The agreement, set up in 1941
excludes from service on diesel en-
gines so-called nonpromotable men
or those who cannot be promoted
to engineers, it was explained. The
Mediation Board was named a de-
fendant for having approved the
agreement between the Southeast
ern Carriers Conference Committee
and the brotherhood.
The 'firemen are represented by
Attorneys Henry Epstein of New
York, and Wilbur La Roe, ir., and
