CHOICE REORsEL It Says Here
NEW YORK CITY
By BOB HOPE

Well. I finally got around to getting a glimpse 0f one of New Y0ks most novel novelties.
 It's an Ice skating rink in the heart Of the city. at Rockefeller Center.
 Its a big frozen pond with res- taurants on ell sides so the on- lookers can have lunch and watch the skaters at the same time.
 It's a very impressive slight. |.
 In fact, it reminds me of my living room floor on a January dayl
 And the local New Workers are quibe proud of the project but I don't understand why. =.
 After al, whats ice anyway. just California fog with starch in itg
 But foe skating is really a very interesting sport. ..
 It's one Of those things where you start at the bottom and stay there!
 I had lunch in one of the grilis and watched the skaters I saw some beautiful figure eights. Of course. I prefer them a little olderl
 The Weather's been a little warm here, SO they had some trouble freezing the pond.
 But they finally worked out & way they put Jimmy byEnes on one side of it and Henry Wal lace on the other and let the Icy stares take 1t from therei [ IT
 And Jane Russell came out to do a little skating but they had to ask her to leave. ..
 The Ice kept melting faster than they could freeze hs " Copyright, iess, King Features

| danger from the menace Of COM
munism," which was something of
an obsession with many Nazis.
At the outset this argument of
self defense falls because it COM
pletely ignores this damning COM
bination of facts clearly established
in the record: First, the enormous
and rapid German preparations for
war; second, the repeatedly avowed
intentions of the German leaders
to attack, which I have previously
cited and third, the fact that a
series of wars occurred in which
German forces struck the first
blows, without warning, across the
borders of other nations.
One of the chief reasons the
defendants say there was no con-
spiracy is the argument that con-
spiracy was impossible with a die
tator. The argument runs that
they all had to obey Hitler's orders,
which had the force of law in the
German state, and hence obedience
cannot be made the basis of a
criminal charge. In this way it is
explained that while there have
been wholesale killings, there have
been no murderers.
What these men have overlooked
Is that Adolf Hitler's acts are thei1
acts 1t was these men among mil
lions of others. and it was these
men leading millions of others, who
built up Adolf Hitler and vested ir
his psychopathic personality moi
only innumerable lesser decisions
but the supreme issue of war Oh
peace, They intoxicated him with
power and adulation. They fed his
hates and aroused his fears. They
put a loaded gun in his eager
hands. 1t was left to Hitler to pull
the trigger, and when he did they
all at that time approved.
Left Life a Deceiver.
Hitler ordered every one else t
fight to the last and then retreatec
into death by his own hand. Blu
he left life as he lived it, deceiver
he left the official report that hi
had died in battle This was the
man whom these defendants ex-
allied to a Fuehrer. 1t was they
who conspired to get him absolute
authority over all of Germany
And in the end he and the system
they created for him brought the
ruin of them all. "''
i 1t is against such a background
that these defendants now ask thi
tribunal to say that they are no
guilty of planning, executing, ol
conspiring to commit this long lis
of crimes and wrongs. They stanc
before the record of this trial a.

Wooden SIots Adjust
For Complete Privacy;
Wax Works Wonders
By HiIson Munsey

The porch, windows and doors
can be screened with jalousies to
keep out the glare of the sun and
the rain. Jalousies are adjustable
louvres consisting of series of
wooden Stats pivoted at both ends
and so connected that they can be
moved in unison. They are ad-
Unstable within ITO degrees by means
of a rack-and-pinion arrangement
on the interior. One of these ad-
justing handles will operate as many
as % Stats placed on 4-inch centers
The Stats are u of an inch wider
than that.
When the Stats are closed these
jalousies afford complete privacy
Each unit has maximum width of
feet. The stock door sizes have an
opening height of 661a inches with
an overall height of 6 feet 8 inches
or feet whichever is needed. The
width varies from 80 to 36 inches
and there are % Stats to a door. If
special sizes are needed they can
be bought on order.
The Stats on the doors are on s.
inch centers and the width is 81
inches. The jalousies are made of
clear heart, vertical grain red cedar
and receive a sprayed priming coat
of synthetic paint or they can be
obtained with finishing coat of
off white enamel. The exposed
hardware is nickel-plated and in
terlocking metal angles at each end
Iof the Stats provide the necessary
weather stripping.

Painting Kitchen Chairs.

Question: painted two kitchen
chairs few days apart and found
each of them to be of different
shades of green. The enamel was
out of the same can. Why didn't
get the same shade on the two
chairs? How can I keep dust from
getting on the fresh paint?
Answer-On opening a can of
paint the liquid part will be found
at the top with heavy mass of
paste in the bottom of the can. The
two must be very thoroughly mixed.
To do this pour off most of the
liquid and mix what remains into
the paste. Pour the liquid back
into the can, little at time. mix
ing thoroughly, and continue until
the liquid and the paste are mixed
to smooth consistency. Finish BY
pouring the mixture several times
from one can to the other. Incom-
plete mixing will make difference
In the shade of the color. This
may have been the cause of your
trouble; another cause may have
been In adding too much thinner
to the first coat. To avoid dust do
the job In a room or garage that
has been recently cleaned, and do
not do anything to stir up dust. For
best results use an enamel under
coater for the undercoats.
Homemade Library Paste.
Question: correspondent who
has to use large quantities of library
paste has asked If there is some
method for making 1t at home in
order to save money.
Answer-The following formula
can be used: 10 ounces of potato
dextrine, As fluid ounces of water, 1
fluid ounce glycerine. Mix a little
dextrine with water to smooth out
the Jumps, then add the rest of the
water and heat the mixture until
the dextrine is completely dissolved.
Then stir in the glycerine. Add one
ounce of formaldehyde and one
quarter dram of carbolic acid crys-
tails as preservatives. Perfume with
oil OF wintergreen. After four days
the mixture will set to a firm paste.

By Robert J. Lewis

District building operations valued

s4,960,250, the years record month
ly total, according to the August
report received by Brig. Gen. Cor

Commissioner, from the Municipal
Building Inspections Department.
The report is based on District
building permits issued to private
builders for new construction and
repairs.
In addition to private building,
District Government work during
the month amounted to $4,000.
OF the total dollar volume of
private work, 81 ,970,50 was for new
construction, and $937,125 was for
repairs.
The report showed permits were
granted for 1856 dwelling units, of
which So were one-family units,
and the remaining "a units were
apartments in six buildings.

Home Buyers Seek
Larger Ground Area,
New Surveys Show
By w. Wodsworth Wood

A series OF carefully planned sur.
veys made by several of the Lead
ing magazines has been completed,
Nearly $4,000 representative fami-
lies, living in all parts of the coun-
try, have expressed their ideas Of
good housing In detail. The results
have upset many Of the conclusions
reached after survey made a few
years ago.
The first requirement as expressed
by these people is for much larger
areas of ground around their house.
AS a matter of fact twice or three
times the area of their present
home is desired. The preference in
style Is for the Cape Cod, the
ranch or the contemporary type Of
architecture.
The popular design is the one or
the one-and-a-half story house.
Two story dwellings are not in
favor. Practically every one of the
families contacted insisted on OUT
door dining, recreation and chill.
dren's play areas on the grounds.
The price range for the houses
runs from 7 to 10 thousand dol
lars, with nearly 10 per cent ready
to pay from 9 to 10 thousand.
About Is per cent of the families
responding to the inquiry expressed
a willingness to go over $4,000 If
necessary to secure the conveniences
they specified.
The size of the house most favored
Is six rooms exclusive of the bath
room. There is great diversity Of
opinion covering the use to which
the six rooms would be put. Most
people want three bedrooms, some
two, and very few only one bed
room.
The trend Is away from ths
separate dining room although q
former survey indicated a prefer
ence for them. Fifty-five per cent
| of the families with a separate
dining room use it for purposes
other than dining. and have evi-
IDENTIFY come to the conclusion that
1t is foolish to devote so much space
to three one-hour sessions out Of
the 24-hour day.
The trend is toward larger living
rooms with dining area. Contrary
to expectations, most of the families
want basement. There is great
interest in ir-conditioning
The preference in furniture Is
decidedly toward the modern, and
the interest in built-in furniture Is
very great. Nearly IS per cent of
the families want built-in bookcases
and wardrobes instead of portable
closets; and nearly 40 per cent want
built-in chests of drawers and dress
ing tables
