Congress Outlaws Portal Suits

WASHINGTON, (P) - On the strength of decisive House and Senate victories for legislation killing portal pay suits, Republi- cans spoke confidently today of overriding a veto by Pg1Sidan. Truman if necessary.
 The Senate vote for a measure to outlaw virtually all pending and future portal claims was GA to 24.
 It now goes to the House, which passed a similar bill three weeks ago, 435 to 56.
 Next week a HOues-Senate con ference committee will iron out the differences. Ratification is a foregOne conclusion. Then the bill will go to the White House.
 With a two-thirds vote needed to override a veto, COP Congress sional leaders could point to the fact that they mustered the requir- ed Strength-and mOre-in both the House and the Senate.

'WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowman

Here are few of the questions
which the pupils In my classes ask
over and over again. You, too, might
wish to make the same queries, were
we to talk together. :
I. Is 1t possible for me to remain
the same weight and yet lose IN
inches?
A. Yes. definitely. If you will do
exercises regularly. If you have too
many pounds you must diet also.
2. What should my measure
ments be?
A. This depends on build as well
as weight. However. be guided
somewhat by these general rules:
Your waist should be 10 inches
smaller than your hips and there
should not be more than inches
difference between the bust and hip
measurements. For perfection they
should be the same.
3. When I reach the correct
weight and measurements, how can,
I stay that way? Will have to con.
tinue exercise and diet?
<As 42A oloCA W hGSp yOuT lOVeIV u,
figure as the years pass, I suggest
that you do incorporate a few ex-
ercises into your daily routine. As
to diet, eat what seems to be a nor
NAL amount of a well-rounded diet
and watch the scales to see what
happens. If you begin to gain, cut
your calorie intake by 300 calories.
If the gain continues, cut it 500
calories. If, on the other hand,
you lose weight, increase your
daily food consumption 300 to 500
calories. In other words, experiment
little to find your essential intake.
4. How soon will I begin to notice
difference in my figure?
A. In about two weeks time,
maybe sooner!
If you wish to have my weight
and height chart, send a stamped,
self-addressed envelope with your
request for leaf1et No. 40, weight

Music for Millions
By Betty Miles

The public library provides the
answer for the music lover without
a song. Through its music library
in the main library at Ninth and
K streets NV, the only one of its
kind In the city, it attempts to fill
the gap for the person whose purse
prohibits the purchase of a record
player and personal music library
It's also the answer to those who
want to have more than noddine
acquaintance with an album they
wish to purchase. 1t provides the
chance to broaden ones musical
horizons; the great masses, chamber
music, folk music offer new avenues
of listening. 49,.
Part Of the library Is devoted tc
orchestrations, and includes most
pf the basic symphonies of the fore
most composers. According to Miss
Grace Manship, music librarian
this section Is most popular. "' -
Interesting Is the fact that the
supply Of chamber music is being

trios and quartets, most notably the
"Archduke Trio (Trio No. D." by
Beethoven. Also on hand are

work by Brahms and Debussy
Haydn quartets and Shubert quar-
tets and quintets.

the operas.
Bach's "St. Matthew Passion" is
among the choral collection. There
Is also an album of Bach organ
music played by Albert Schweitzer
noted interpreter Of Bach.
There is a collection of children's
records, built primarily. in response
to a cry from teachers and parents
for music above the musical equiva-
lent of the comic book. 1.-THE Happy
Farmer" Coronation March" and
others are included in one of the
albums. French folk songs fol

Recently. I burned my baby's rub
Der nipples while 'steriliztng them,
and had the whole house strongly
scented with the pungent burning
rubber. Not being able to air the
house thoroughly because Of the ex-
treme cold, I added q half cup cider
vinegar to a small saucepan (halt
filled with water) along with tea
spoonful of picking spices and
boiled them well for at least ten
minutes. The clean spiced odor
cleared the air entirely of the burn
ing rubber.
I thought maybe this idea would
