Rubber Cement Paint

One of the newer developments in
the paint line is rubber base cement
paint. Makers of this type of paint
especially recommend it for paint
ing basement and garage floors and
state that it is highly resistant, not
only to dampness, but also to
grease, alcohol and some acids.
New concrete should be allowed to
dry thoroughly-as much as two or
three months-before painting it
with this type of paint. If the floor
has been previously painted, the old
paint should be removed with a pre-
pared paint remover, and then thor
oughly rinsed so that no trace Of
the paint remover remains. Then,
when the floor is thoroughly dry.
two coats Of the rubber base CO.
ment paint should be applied, TAX
ing care that the first coat is thor
oughly dry before the second coat
Is put on.

Sugarcane Gives Tn Wax

recovering the valuable hard way
that forms a thin coating on grow
ing sugarcane has been made pos
sible by findings of department OF
agriculture scientists. In general.
sugarcane wax resembles carnauba
wax, the basic ingredient Of high
grade wax polishes, which for years
has been an important import item
and vas in special demand during
the war. In 1910, imports of less
than II million pounds were val
ued at nearly eight million dollars.
Carnauba wax is painstakingly re-
moved from the fresh young leaves
of a Brazilian palm by drying the
leaves and then beating them to-
gether. Existence of the wax on the
s%ugarcane has been known for many
years, but a ton of cane bears only
two or three pounds of wax, max
ing recovery of the wax too expen-
sive until the new formula was de-
veloped.

of Grains

Corn, wheat and oats are the
three great grain crops. Before
World War II, corn production av-
eraged about 2h billion bushels;
wheat, about 300 million; and oats,
about l billion. A bushel Of wheat,
however, weighs nearly twice as
much as a bushel of oats, so wheat
ranks ahead of oats in total weight
produced.

munity, where the number OF
centers located in it's metropolitan
area, with the shifting patterns
of the various neighborhoods that
they serve, indispensably requires
coordination of these institutions
alone in that area. Within each
of the institutions further CO.
ordination of activities is required
and perhaps above all of them
the community may some day
have plan which will involve re-
relationship as it should with other
agencies and institutions of a
different character.
No matter what demand may be
made for general overall cOmmun-
ity planning and coordination, GER
tain simple principles of human
conduct and public administration
should be preserved. "A good il
lustratiOn of this is found in the
Jewish Center. There is an over
abundance of evidence that the
Jewish Center that retains the
principle of democratic member
ship participation and reserves the
highest degree of autonomy con-
sistent with the cOmmunity's well
fare with it's own board and own
professional staff circumstances
permitting produces the best pro-
gram and best result. This pro-
ceeds from the very sound prin-
cipIe of administration which de-
mandS a decentralization of auth
Ority consistent with the respon-
sibility that is placed for the
achievement of given aim. We
need total community plan, but
such a plan need not be autocratic,
nor do violence to the essential

Blueprint For American
Jewish Culture
Continued from page y

There are instances where a
Jewish Center can and should be-
come not only the functional ex-
preston of the cultural and recre-
ational program of the community
but the coordinating and planning
instrument as well. There are in
stances where perhaps the feder-
alton can meet this same require
ment and there are still others
where a community council can do
the coordinating and overall plan
ming job. But whichever it is, is
dependent in a large measure on
the history of Jewish organiza-
tional life of that community, the
personalities of the individuals
involved, the variety and number
of efforts involved and the pro-
gram that is agreed upon. We
have interesting examples of lay
ers of coordination that become
desperately needed in larger COM
munities. One large Jewish COM
