During the week, windows and
woodwork In that room are washed,
bookcases or drawers tidied, light
bulbs busted, picture frames busted
OF, and picture glasses washed. The
method. of concentrating on one
room week land just once-over-

keeps my house fairly clean. I make
the rounds once every six weeks, but
feel that this method would work
as well when have q large house,

For Mrs. L. q. DIG, OF Washing
ton, who wants to know II there Is
a book on curtain making for the

Complete Book Of Sewing" by Con-
stance Talbot, printed by Book Pre-
sentations, N. Y. This has three
very complete chapters of curtains
and draperies to help her with the
mechanics Of such sewing. If she
does much sewing, she will find the
rest of the book invaluable. For
novel ideas, may suggest that she
go through magazines and news
papers, particularly the women's
magazines and the better home
magazines, and clip pictures that
appeal to her. Advertisements are
a wonderful source Of good ideas,
and she viii also get much help on
types Of window coverings for diff
ferent types of rooms. Good luck to
her.
The RCH often forwards answers

"1'm staying" he repeated.

Absolutely"
She slipped an arm through the strap of
her drawstring bag "A sufficient amount of
boredom may make you change your mind"
Then, as if it were an afterthought, she
went over and picked up the dog. With a
broad, obvious expression she put it in her
handbag and started for the door, Suddenly
she stopped, turned, looked at him. She
took the dog out of her bag and put it back
on the table Then she left without word.
AFTER few minutes he started to feel
silly. Having pursued a whim, he had
caught up with it, and now he didn't know
what to do with it, He might as we'll check

simple just to walk out with it. But the
look she'd given him while returning it to

He stood there moment, then walked down
to the lake. He skipped several stones over
the water, still trying to figure out what he
was doing there.
A fish breaking the surface suddenly re-
minded him it was near dinner time, and in
little while he went back and explored the
refrigerator There was a half of chicken,
but he passed it up for two peaches and a
glass of milk. Turning on the radio, he
stretched out on the couch again.
He didn't know how long he'd been
asleep, but was aware that the phone was
rudely jarring him into a state of semi
consciousness.
A slow, deep voice asked for Miss Oliver.
Not in," Jeff said. ANY message?"

''Wrenched his shoulder?' she echoed.

unpatiently and paced back and forth. Sud-

 Reconsideration Notice
 There was no dissatisfaction ex- pressed with the main purpose of the bill--to increase the per diem allowance from $7 to $10. How ever, after a l2-3 vote had passed the bill, it was called back from the, House on Senator Leo Rogge's notice that he intended to move for reconsideration.

TW0FEATURE5AT
 CAPITOL THEATRE
 DURING WEEKEND

There are two features at the Capitol this weekend beginning to- night One feature is a murder mystery, the other a western,
 "The Glass Alibi,' starring Paul Kelly, Douglas Fowley and Anne Gynne, tells of man who will stop at nothing for money. A sharp, devil-may- reporter, al ready secretly involved with 8 gangster's mol" sees an oppor- tunity to inherit fortune by marrying a millionairess with only six months to live. When the heiresS, after their marriage, fails to die as the doctor predicted, Joe becomes desperate, his girl friend becomes impatient for the prom ised haul" and the trouble be- gins.
 Arizona Terrors' is the other feature, starring Don Red Barry.
 When an unscruplous promot- CT calling himself Don Pedro de Berendo" assumes control of an entire territory, claiming it under false papers as land grant from the crown. Barry steps in, with his pal, "Hardtack," played by Al St. John, and makes it a regular practice to rob Don Pedros tax collectors and return the money to these from whom it has been unlawfully taken.

concealable weapons would be bar red. A person such as Cochran referred to still could have rifle in his home. Butrovich express ed preference for shotgun. The bill, Butrovich said, is intended to control "a lot of screwballs' who go around packing firearms. There would be very few cases where it would work hardship. President Andrew Nerland interjected that there is already a law prohibiting carrying concealed weapons.
 Though H. B. AZ passed, Coch- ran was joined on the mo" side by Senators Nerland. Peratrovich. Dawes and Green.
 Of the 14 measures acted upon during the afternoon, two were killed off by the Senate. They were:
 Scott Speaks
 H. B. 98, to add another hour to the time polls are open, extending voting hours to o'clock in the evening. On this bill Senator Tal- bot Scott made one of his rare remarks in opposition. Senator Charles Jones facetiously objected that he wouldn't be able to get a glass of beer to go with his dinner
 Senator Engebreth upheld the time extension as needed in his home city, Anchorage, where long line-ups wait on the polls at the closing hour. Senator E. B. Col lins advised that Anchorage open additional polling places and Scott rejoined that there would still be long lines with the polls kept open until g p. m. Some people just have to wait until the end, he said. Senator Frank Peratrovich wanted the bill, because, in com munities with which he is famil- jar many persons-fishermen, pile drivermen, etc, have to work late.
 H. B. 61, to seat defeated can didates in case vacancies occur in the Legislature too late to hold a special election, was indefinitely postponed after Senator Cochran stated that it would be illegal under the Organic Act
 Kind Words For 109
 H. B. 109, one of the several measures that passed the Senate unanimously, received pat on the back from Finance Committee member Butrovich. He declared it would greatly aid in the task of budgeting the Territory's expenses. The measure, authored by Reps. Maurice Johnson and Robert Hopes, calls for administrative departments to submit complete reports on funds obtained from

other salmon. In both the ori- ginal and substitute bills, the add ed taxes would be effective during the years ls47 and l948.
 The adoption of the Committee Substitute was followed by caustic corridor comments concerning the cancellation of the frozen fish tax, in particular. Numerous amendments are likely when the measure comes to the floor.
 Spring boarded to a flying start by the brush over the fish tax measure, the Senators fitted through the big half of a 24- measure calendar before getting hung up, just before 5 o'clock, on Rep. Maurice Johnson's bill to grant cities greater powers to en- force garbage disposal, zoning and planning. A 9-6 vote chopped down Brownell's motion to table the measure-H. B. 27-just before adjournment was taken until 10 o'clock this morning. filling Sena- tor N. R. Walker was absent throughout the afternoon meeting
 Senator Don Carl>5 Brownell also stirred up activity when he moved to untable H. B. 7-the Almquist measure to increase old age pensions. But, he was unsuc- cesstul there also; the bill stay ing on the table by a 6-9 vote.
 This second attempt to lift the pension bill brought comments: from Senator Cochran. that it would be deluding the old folks to let them think they would be paid up to $75 month; and from Senator John Butrovich. Jr,, that passage would be followed by the Welfare Directors bringing in an- other deficiency bill next session.
 Though Cochran said he did not recommend either for or against H. B. 42-to prevent persons con- victed of felonies from having concealab,e firearms-he did point fault in the measure. There are many now good citizens, he said who have been once guilty of fel- onies and paid the penalty. It would not be just to deprive them of the means of protecting their households.

FISH TAX BILL
 MUCH REVISED BY COMMITTEE
New Try 10 Lift Pension Bill from Senate
 Table Fails

One of those revenue raising measures that have been more or less held in reserve came out Of the Senate Finance Committee yes- terday afternoon in substitute bill form.
 By very close vote, the Com mittee Substitute for Senator Gum hard Engebreth's s. B. 71 secur- ed adoption. An 8-6 vote pushed aside the original bill, over re- quests to delay action until the substitute could be carefully per- used, and the vote was followed by rumblings of discontent.
 Senator o. D. Cochran declared he could not choose between the original and the substitute un- til he had a chance more fully to inform himself. He did not vote on the motion to adopt the committee report.
 Several features of the original bill were entirely erased by the Finance group-including new lev ies on salted, mild cured and froz- en fish. The new case tax on canned salmon, which is the heart of the bill, was considerably modi- fled from the figures Senator Engebreth had proposed. AS he introduced the bill, tax of 48 cents per case would have been imposed on canned red and king salmon in addition to all pres ent levies. The added tax on other varieties of canned salmon would have been 24 cents per case.
 Levies Chopped
 The Finance Committee chopped those levies to 12 cents on reds and kings and cents per case on

RELAXED:
Loan Terms

Groggy and hanging on the ropes,
dollar-starved Great Britain was
given a reprieve from economic
doom when the U. S. agreed to sus-
pend the controversial 'free con-
vertibiity" clause Of its 3.75 billion
dollar loan to England.
That particular clause, a major
drain on the English dollar supply,
required that Britain surrender dol
lars on demand to any country
which held English pounds. In 9TH
err words, foreign countries having a
supply Of pounds could turn them in
to Great Britain and get dollars in
exchange.
AS the action was taken, Britain
announced that it would withdraw
between $50 and 200 million dollars
more Of the $50 million dollars re-
naming of the original loan. Cam
collation. of the ''free convertibility"
clause, British leaders hope, win
enable them to stretch their swiftly
dwindling credit.
Actually, few persons outside Of
the monetary technicans handling
the matter, understood the details
of the transaction. It was, in the
words Of Robert A. Lovett, acting
secretary Of state, "a terribly COM
pucated matter"

DEFINITION:
Long Felt Want

Rep. Forest A. Harness (Rep.,
Ind.) suddenly became aware of a
long felt want for an accurate and
distinctive definition of a couple of
much-used words propaganda"
and Information"
His concern stemmed from the
fact that he is chairman Of house
expenditures subcommittee current
ly investigating government publ
city and propaganda; hence, he felt
impelled to explain to Secretary Of
State Marshall that he has no inten-
ton Of interfering with spreading
proper information, only with ''un-
lawful and improper" influencing Of
legislation for propaganda.
Thus, the need for definitions,
which Harness phrased this way:
"INFORMATION: The act or
process of communicating
knowledge; to enlighten.
PROPAGANDA: A plan for
the propagation Of doctrine
or a system Of principles"
Just how, if at all, the subtler
types Of propaganda can be sharp
~ and Immediately distinguished
from information, and vice versa,
Harness did not say. The definitions
were his grandchildren, and the &C.
curate application Of them appeared
likely to become his headache.

MORE WAR:
Tense in Java

They haven't had enough In Indo-
nesia.
Although the UN-inspfred truce
was still holding, the indicator was
still set at war as Indonesian lead
ers prepared to abandon Jogjakarta,
Java, and make ready for renewed
full-scale hostilities with the Dutch.
The Netherlands governor gener-
al, DR.. Hubertus J. Van Nook, as
sailed the Indonesians in a bitter
indictment which charged them with
a two-year record of murder, ar
son and torture" He said Indo-
nesian authorities over the rich Su-
matra and Madeira regions, now
occupied by Dutch troops, would
not be recognized.
Meantime, top Indonesian military
leaders made no bones of the fact
that they believed that the Dutch
soon would launch an offensive
aimed at capturing Java's interior
capital city Of Jogjakarta.

Fuel Shortage Seen World Wide This Winter

It looks like this will be a long,
cold winter.
An unprecedented demand has
been tagged by the Anthracite In
stitute an the chief cause for what
will probably develop into a world
wide shortage Of all types Of fuel
this year.
The institute pointed out that no
reclaimed coke will be available as
during the war years, domestic coke
win be In short supply, less wood
Is available for fuel and 1t Is prob
able that the demand for soft coal
will exceed the supply.
With one-third Of the 1947-48 coal
year completed. the institute said,
the anthracite industry was already
81 per cent behind In production on
certain sizes ~ compared with last
year. An increase In daily peodue.

Truman, Acts

President Harry Truman, In a re-
newed effort to alleviate the tragic
plight" of Europe's displaced per-
sons, ordered a three-way shift in
the top command of the u. S. i'm
migration and naturalization serv-
ice.
In addition, it was disclosed that
administration officials in Washing
ton have resumed their review Of
the problem Of displaced persons.
Most important personnel shift in
volved the transfer Of Ugo Carusi
from his post as commissioner Of
immigration to q position in the
state department where he will sur
vey all critical problems relating
to displaced persons, particularly
their resettlement.
This is expected to result In add
ed stress being placed on a directive
Mr.. Truman issued in December,
1945, calling for coordinated action
by federal officials to admit as
many displaced persons az possible
within quota limitations.
Watson B. Miller, federal security
administrator, succeeds Carusi as
commissioner Of immigration, and
Oscar Ross Ewing, New York law
yer, replaces Miller.
President Truman's action was
taken in the face of congress re-
fusal to act on his proposal to relax
