zoning Board TO Consider
18th Street Application

A petition to open lower Sixteenth
street between Scott Circle and H

buildings will be heard at 10 am.
Wednesday by the zoning Commis-

The case was scheduled for spe-

cause of expected opposition to the
plan which would change the zoning
from residential to commercial.
AS yet, however, only minimum

|McCarran Seeks
New District
Water Agency
Senator Would Stop
Free Service for
Federal Buildings

Creation OF an independent agen-
cy to assume control Of the Districts
water system and to end free water
service to Federal buildings will be
proposed in a bill to be introduced
tomorrow by Senator McCarran,
Democrat. of Nevada.
A revival of the bill he offered q
year ago, the McCarran measure
would set up a Metropolitan Water
Administration having representa-.
tives of the Federal and District
Governments and the public.
A different plan concerning the
financing of the water system has
been prepared by the District Com
miSsioners and is awaited on Capt.
tol Hill. The Commissioners last
year objected to the McCarran bill
although they indorsed many of its
objectives.
Nearby Virginia Supplied.
The two plans agree on the ending
of free water service for the United
States, now estimated to be costing
the District taxpayers more than
$500, 900 annually.
Senator McCarran said he hoped
study would be started soon by the
District Committee of both his meas
ure and the plan to be submitted by
the Commissioners. He said one rea-
son he was urging creation of
joint administrative board for the
system was that the District Is sup.
plying water under contract to near
by Virginia. Proposals now are being
made for extension of this service as
far as Falls Church. Va. ....
At present the District Engineers
Office of the War Department has
control over the supply end of the
water system. The District Water
Department, operating under the
Commissioners. has charge of the
distribution, billing and collection
services.
Built First by U. S.
One argument in support Of the
free water for Federal buildings has
been that the United States, many
years ago, built the Districts first
water system and subsequently con.
tributed toward its expansion.
On the other hand, the Commits
sioners in report to the Senate
committee last year, contended that
District residents had not only con-
tributed to the original cost but in
later years "have borne the entire
burden of the operation, repair and
maintenance of the supply and dis
tribution systems"
| They agreed with finding made
by Senator McCarran that the Fed
eral Government was receiving the
equivalent Of about 85 per cent re-
turn on its original investment.
"It is surely unsound," they said in
their 1916 report" to argue that an
!, agency, because it contributed to the
cost of public utility, should be al
lowed to utilize the product of that
utility forever, without payment, and
without limit on the amount"
\ The 1948 District budget, now be-
fore the House, proposes that both
the District and Federal Govern
ments be charged for water services,
as one of the means of balancing the
budget. Legislation will be needed,
however, to authorize the change,
officials said.

Beauty Roundup

Now for people who are allergic
to many of the cosmetics on the
market.
The percentage is quite high, you
know, and for this reason we've in
vestigated the matter and discov-
cred quite bit of information we
hope will prove helpful. Besides a
whole line OF cosmetics, both scent
ed and unscented, that people suf-
fering from allergies may use-a
new product is now being introduced
to the public.
For the first time in the history
of cosmetics there is a new liquid
nail polish that has been formulated
to eliminate nail polish sensitivity
or allergy. This hypo-allergenic
polish Is soon to be put on the mar
ket after six years Of research.
Ninety EIGHT per cent of the wom-
en- who have used it reported that
they could use the polish without
any untoward reaction.
This new hypo-alIergenic polish

irritation or allergic reactions-has
worked during these many years in
cooperation with leading dermatol-
ogists, allergists and doctors. Such
great research has been done in this
field that it is not unusual for a
doctor today upon inspecting
cracked lips, skin irritations that
never seem to go away to ask,
What cosmetics do you use?"
They often suggest this line of
cosmetics that includes cold cream,
skin lotion, face powder, wave set,
briiliantine, deodorant, lipstick,
rouge, shampoo, tale and their new
est product, nail polish. Even if you
have no allergies, these same mild,
pure cosmetics may be used with
great satisfaction.
These cosmetics for sensitive skins
do not cost any more than other
fine cometics. If you would like in
formation concerning them and ad-
vice on your own individual skin
problems write me care of this

L
ried six months to a spoiled brat
who is in need of disciplining. Sun
day at a party she slapped my face.
Immediately spanked her soundly
in her friends presence, and as her
friends approved of what I was
doing instead of stopping me, my
wife became very angry and ran
home to her mother.
Being disgusted with her, ]
thought of leaving her. However
last night she came back and asked
to make up, giving me permission
to spank her if she ever slapped me
again, or acted like a spoiled child
Naturally I made up. But what do
you suggest if she continues to act
like a spoiled brat?
BEW1LDERED HUSBAND.
Answer: If a girl is brought up to
be a spoiled brat, 7 doubt If the
ratishness can ever be gotten out
of her system, no matter how vigor-
ously her husband uses his good
right hand You see, the trouble
with the selfish is that they never
know that they are selfish. They
think that, somehow, they are en-
titled to the best of everything and
that everyone should give way to
them.
And it is the same way with peo-
pie who have never been taught to
control their tempers. They think
that when they throw tantrums and
curse and abuse other people that
they fully atone for it by saying
I'm sorry" and that everybody
should forgive them and forget how
mean and hateful they have been
and love them just the same.
So if you are going to undertake
to reform a brat, you have hard
Job ahead of you, and doubt If it is
worth the trouble. I often think
that when a man gets an undisci-
plined wife, who has never been

Sometimes, as is the case with many
who report sensitivity and cannot
account for 1.-THE nail polish used

unblemished but parts of the face

causing sensitivity - this company
has also made a special formula nail

WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowman


Many women are uncomfortable
because Of backache. especially dur
ing pregnancy and often afterwards.
Whenever a woman has a persistant
backache she should consult her
physician. However, this Is often
caused by poor posture and Is ex-
aggerated during pregnancy.
At no time is good carriage more
Important! The unusual weight in
front which the muscles must bear
tend to tilt the pelvis forward.
Sometimes even after the baby
arrives, the forward tilt will con-
tinue thus causing backache. This,
plus the danger of a fall, make
low heels the only sensible foot
wear for the pregnant woman. High
heels exaggerate the forward tilt
and throw the body off balance.
Even when pregnancy Is not pres
ent, a heavy pendulous abdomen
may have the same effect. Your
physician should advise you con-
cerning exercise during pregnancy
and will tell you how soon you can
begin exercising after the delivery
of your child. There are many mo-
tions which are helpful in recon-
ditioning abdominal muscles and
improving carriage.
The following exercise is correc-
tive to sway-back and constipation:
Lie on your back with your legs
straight and your arms resting on
the floor at your sides. Bend your
left knee up close to your stomach.
Grasp the knee with your hands and
pull hard. Return left leg and arm
to the floor. The next time, bend
your right knee close to your tummy.
grasp with both hands and pull.
Return right leg and arms to floor.
Continue, alternating left and right.

how to combat this maddening fun"
gus growth. 1t used to be that oeins

was wait for a sunny day or build
a fire and hope for the best. now
however, all that's needed is q bot
tie of the fungicide for household
use, to kill the mildew instantly
and keep it from coming back. This
is a colorless liquid, highly concen-
trated, but safe to use, diluted with
water, on fabrics or surfaces that
would not be injured by plain soap
and water. However, full directions
are printed on leaflet attached to
the bottle and it's wise wife who
follows them. This product may be
sprayed, wiped or mopped on. You
can apply it on shoes and leather
goods also, full strength this time.
There is one hitch-it won't take
out the spots which may have al
ready formed, but it will kill the
fungus growth causing the trouble.

BIRTHDAY PARTY.

from M. P. S., Ldndover.)
For Mrs. E. C. A., Falls Church.
I wanted to answer your request, as
I did give a party some years ago
for my year-old son, which included
guests from months to nearly 3
years of age, and their mothers.
MY suggestions are these: No games,
of course, but provide enough floor
space for crawlers and toddlers to
get around. Remove special bric-a-
brac and valued pieces out Of reach
of little fingers. Be sure to have
something new and interesting to
tiny tots that will hold attention,
but not make too many small pieces
underfoot. The birthday gifts can
be part of the interest, but mostly
should be put aside for your own
little one to enjoy at his leisure.
An original idea of my own was to
have a pretty balloon for each little
guest. They should be blown up
not too tightly before the party
and each tied securely to the head
of round wooden clothespin new
for sucking purposes). This short,
stubby handle is just right for a
baby fist, much easier to hold than
the long thin sticks, and especially
not dangerous to eyes. For refresh
ments, a simple cake and icing may
be tinted pink, can be two-tiered
with IL tiny candles around the
base layer denoting months and a
large candle g inches long, on top.
1t need not be ornately decorated,
but might have tiny toy baby on
top in place of the candle. Vanilla
ice cream is best for that age, but
for the mothers, another flavor, too.
Pink to carry out the color scheme.
Arrow root crackers and vanilla
waters may be passed for the little
ones. Candy favors aren't suitable.
After every one has arrived it is nice
to take pictures of all the youngsters
collectively. A regular photographer

The time is finally here when you
can cook bacon crisp and fat as you
really like it. 1t may be cooked on
both sides at one time in such a way
that no draining is necessary. The
revolutionary new bacon griddle is
designed scientifically to accomplish
this miracle of the kitchen and at
the same time vastly improve the
flavor. The grease drips down the
slanting sides of the griddle and re-
mains in trough at the bottom. No
turning or drying is necessary and
the strips Of delicious breakfast food
remain fiat; even shrinkage Is held
to a minimum. The griddle is made
of heavy die-cast aluminium and
should last lifetime with reason
able care. Other meats, such as
ham, and cube steaks can also be
cooked on it. Well worth looking
into.
Here's the very newest thing! In
fact the shipment just arrived with.
in the past few days. An all metal
ironing board that is equipped with
adjustable legs. The feature GER
tainly would be excellent for those
tall girls. 1t can be raised to normal
height and then extended up to at
least twelve more inches. The IRON
ing board itself is Of regular size and
it is finished in white enamel, with
black enamel legs. It folds easily
and Is fiat for simple storing. Being
constructed of sturdy metal, this
necessary piece of household equip
ment should last indefinitely with
perhaps a touch-up job on the
enamel finish II 1t should happen
to crack with the years.
To 60 with the above how about
investing in an ironing board cover
set. This consists Of durable pad
which fits the standard size board
and then an all asbestos cover that
boasts an elastic band instead of
draw strings for tight fitting pur-
poses. With the metal ironing board
and an all asbestos cover practically
all fire hazards should be elimi-
mated.
There is a food mill on the mar
ket that is modern, efficient ap-
pliance acclaimed by chefs and
cooks for speedy, economical fruit
and vegetable pressing, ricing and
sieving. 1t is sturdily constructed
Of quality materials. 1t fastens con-
veniently to any utility table or
cabinet extension, clamps firmly in
place so that it won't slip or slide.
This gadget accomplishes the most
tedious and time consuming chores
of food preparation such as sep
arating the skins, seeds and waste
from a buShel of tomatoes in record
breaking time. 1t also separates
skins, seeds and core cells from a
peck of boiled apples in nothing
fiat. The whole contraption consists
of steel spring pressure regulator
Cor stanO, large bowl and spiral
pressure blade. 1t may be used as a
ricer; with jelly bag attached, it
separates pulp and juice in one
operation; when detached, the bowl
becomes a colander. 1t folds fiat
against the stand SO takes up very
little space. Quite a nice article for
the modern housewife to add to her
kitchen equipment.

THANK YOU" NOTE.
MINT SHERBERT.

(From Mrs. J. D., CheDy Chase.)
For Mrs. L. G. B., Alexandria.
May I thank the several people who
were kind enough to answer my
letter? I have read and reread my
replies and do appreciate the time
and interest shown. Our dog seems
in general improved, though she
has many ups and downs" She is
still taking several pills given by
the veterinarian, who has told me
that there is no pain if the condi-
ton is improving. I have been try
ing light massage, since one of my
replies mentioned it, and the dog
seems to appreciate it, as it helps
to relax the twitching muscles. Also
I've learned through the Clearing
House and others that chorea us
ually improves after the dog has
a litter of puppies. We hope to
try this when our dog has regained
her health more completely.
Our dog has had vitamins regu-
larly, lots of sun and clean bedding
and food dishes. The consensus is
that these are some of the most
important factors in health and
good morale. Good luck with your
dog. It is heartening to find that
so many people find that dog is
worth caring for through an afflic-
ton like this. I enjoy and under
stand this dog more than I have
any other and it is gratifying to
see an improvement due to our own
efforts!
I'd like to offer Mrs. Rombauer's
mint sherbert recipe, which seems
to me to be both easy and unusual.
Soak teaspoons gelatin in "a
cup cold water. Boil for 10 minutes,
"a cups water and q cup sugar
Strip the leaves off II sprigs of mint
and chop. Dissolve gelatin in hot
sirup and pour over the chopped
mint leaves. Steep for one hour
Crate l teaspoon of lemon rind and
add to it q cup lemon juice. Add
these ingredients to the sirup and
strain. Chill until it begins to
solidify, then whip until fluffy.
Whip separately 2 egg whites and
"a teaspoon salt and fold them into
the fruit mixture and place in re-
frigerator. At half hour intervals
stir it from the back to front of
tray.
Mrs. Rombauer directs that 1t be
beaten before serving, but this was
not necessary with mine. 1t is
wonderful on a hot day.
