Question: Six months ago we
bought a new house. The cement
cellar floor is rough and crumbling.
Whenever I sweep the cement, I get
a full bucket of very fine dust and
cement. There seems to be no end
to the dust that comes off. Some
one told us to neutralize the cellar
floor with sulphate, but didn't say
now to use it. Please let me know
what can be done.
Answer: a. IT you simply wish to
harden the cement and not intend
to paint the floor at a later time,
you can use an inexpensive material
called waterglass. Use the liquid
variety (sold at farm supply stores,
or, at mail order houses, one part
to four parts of water.
Spread this literally all over the
fdor with q broom and let it dry
for a day or two, wiping up any
puddies. Then make a second appli-
cation. The zinc sulphate hardener
is solution of three pounds to the
gallon of water. This is mopped on
the floor until the cement is we'll
soaked and allowed to dry naturally,
which may take some days.
The cement will darken slightly.
There are also commercial ce-
ment hardners, which will permit
the painting of the floor at some
later time. (Only rubber base floor
paints should be used-not ordinary
oil paint.) The hardeners will not

Seven Shades in Roof.
The roof is of seven carefully
chosen shades of random thickness
Vermont slate shingles, ranging
from IL to72A inches thick. Owing
to selection of this type of roof by
the owner, structural parts of the
house had to be designed to carry
about four times the weight of the
average roof.
So-called "crab orchard" stone for
the terrace and garden walls was
quarried in Tennessee.
Insulated glass was used for the
large living room picture window.
An indication of the size of the

The debt borne by American

Figures on the mortgage balance
Tor the Washington area were not
available, but the Washington Real
Estate Board reported that mort
cages recorded here in 1916 set an
all-time record of $213,685,947
This compared to previous rec
ord total in 1928 of s156, gil ,999.
The total home mortgage debt for
the Nation is more than 20 per cent
above the amount at the end of l945
and Is per cent greater than the
previous peak recorded in 1880.
The outstanding mortgage debt in.
creased during last. year by $4,60O,-
000, 900, or more than nine times the
amount of the increase the year be-
fore.
In the background of these ris-
ing figures, of course, is the con-
tinued pressure for scarce homes.
resulting often in forced purchase,
together with the revival Of large
scale building after wartime restric-
tions," the report said.
Inflated prices for old and newly
built houses, plus GI loans at full
value of properties as permitted by
law, are also causes of rapid ex-
pansion both in current lending
totals and the outstanding balance
of debt" the report continued.

Taft Bill All Wet

Walter T. Robinson, director Of
the loan guarantee division OF the
Des Moines Office of the Veterans
Administration, this week said the
Taft-Ellender- Wagner general hous-
ing bill was "all wet, according to
most thinking"
He spoke at a mortgage clinic
of the Mortgage Bankers Associa-
ton at Kansas City, Mo.
At the same time Mr.. Robinson
said "the construction industry is
pricing itself out of the market"
'It is time to stop, look and
listen, for there is more imitation
than we generally realize" he said.

ceptionahy poor mixture.
Linoleum Wall Covering Loosened
Question: The linoleum wal.
covering in our rented home is
pulling away from the wall and the
plaster loosening, due probably to
an upstairs leak. We cannot afford
to put in tile, and wonder If the
present covering can be recemented
in any way.
Answer: The plaster should first
be stripped off and the damaged
part replastered; unless, of course,
the plaster has dried out and seems
to be all right. The linoleum cover
ing can be stuck back in place with
linoleum cement. If you are not
familiar with this type of work, you
had better, have an experienced
workman do the job for you. OF
course the leak upstairs should be
attended to before the other repairs
are made.
Uneven Basement Floor.
Question: My cement basement
floor was not well laid. There are
high and low spots in it, and it is
pretty rough all over. AS I am
planning to install asphalt tile on
the floor sometime soon, I don't
want to go to a greatsdeal Of expense
and trouble tearing out the present
floor. Can you advise?
Answer: The floor could be ground
down smooth with terrazzo floor
grinding machine, which would give

You can strike out in new direc.
tions when designing a house ane

The new home shown above is
155-feet long, all on one floor anc
functional in design. Yet its mod

fully with the simple Colonial style
that it retains a traditional ap-
pearance.
The house is located at 3215 East
West highway, Chevy Chase, Md.
on a tWo-acre lot. 1t is one of the
most unusual homes recently built
in this area
What They Wanted.
The owners are Mr.. and Mrs
Joseph Wells. When discussing the
design with the architects, Mr.. and
Mrs. Wells said they wanted:
l. A spacious house, with servants
quarters.
2. All living area on one floor.
8. A design which would not ap-
pear extreme.
4. Utilization Of a steeply slopine
lot they owned which had a COM
paratively narrow strip of Level
ground at the summit, from which
there was fine view, overlooking
Rock Creek Park.
The floor plan and photograph
indicate how the conditions were
met by architects Corning & Moore
and George D. Conner.
First, the architects arranged to
widen the area of level ground by
providing for a walled garden at
the rear and walled terrace in
front sr -
Two Main Divisions.
The floor plan provided for two
main divisions in the home-the
sleeping area and the work area.
In the east wing are three bed
rooms, with dressing room and
bath attached to the master bed
room. and second bath serving
the other two bedrooms.
The living room, which has q
large picture window facing south
connects the two wings. The west
wing includes library, dining room
kitchen, hall, and powder ROOM
plus servants room with attach
ed bath, and two-car garage.
Thus the house has 10 rooms and
31z baths, besides considerable hall
space, closets and double garage
Under the main part of the house
is a basement containing the furn-

other family bedrooms are II by
1914 feet. The dining room is 1879
by 13 feet.
) Basic Aim of Plan.
OF the design, E. Burton Corning,
one Of the architects, said:
1.-THE basic aim Of the plan was
to utilize the simplicity and func-
tionalism of the modern trend in
design without making too drastic
a departure from tradition
MANY people today are eager to
obtain the advantages provided by
modern trends but just cannot see
their way clear altogether to sepa-
rate themselves from the beauty
of the past.
"Fol that reason, there is wild
ening field for houses in a style
which may be described as one of
easy transition between the past
and the future"

Ceiling Device
Sounds Fire Alarm
Automatically
Ry HiIson Munsey
By HiIson Munsey

A few moments of warning that
a fire has started in the house may
save some ones life.
A warning signal can be bought
that is simple, unobtrusive and in
expensive. This signal is mechani-
cal device and does not depend on
batteries or the house current for
its operation.
The underlying theory Of the
alarm is the same as the sprinkler
system. Heat rises and in case of
fire an appliance that is near the
ceiling will work before the fire
beneath has reached proportions
that make rescue of a person or
the extinguishing of the blaze i'm
possible.
This alarm is just that. It will
not put out a fire, but Is design
ed to give warning. The alarm is
hung up near the ceiling on nail.
There is no other work in connec-
ton with the installation. The
alarm works on a gravity system.
It is a circular metal box about Az
