Funds Sought
In TB Work

special plea to all state and To-
cal T. B. association for contribution
toward a fund of one million dol
lars needed to expand the medical
research program of the National
tuberculosis Association will be
considered by the Budget Commit
tee of the Tuberculosis Lea
que of King County for inclusion
in its budget for the coming fiscal
year, April l, 1948-March 81, 1949.
Grants for research have not
been an important part of the pro-
gram of the local association.
Christmas Seal Sale funds, which
are the sole source of income for
the tuberculosis league have been
spent mainly for health education,
caSe-finding and rehabilitation"
Miss Ruth Walker, treasurer of the
League explained.
Five percent of all Christmas
Seal funds raised in the commune
ty support the services of the MIA.
Research has always been one Of
the features of the National pro-
gram. However, with increasing
costs and more fields opening up
for research, plea for an addi-
tional grant from state and local
associations has been made by DR..
Esmond R. Long, Director of the
Division, she said.
The medical research work of
the National falls into three gener-
al classifications: clinical and cpl
genealogical, such as studies of tu-
berculosis in children. minimal les
ions among nurses, ETC.; basic Ia
boratory, such as Investigations on
the chemistry of the tubercle bacil-
lus, etc: and laboratory work of a
service type, such as providing
standard strains of the germ, tu-
bercle bacillus, for use in qualified
Investigations.
In addition grants have beer
made for streptomycin research
which is being conducted in close
cooperation with the United States
Public Health Service. the Veterans
Administration. Army and Navy
and the National Research Coun.
Gil and University hospitals Miss

INCREASED SCHOOL
ALLOWANCES

Now that President Truman has
made things official by affixing his
signature TO the bill increasing sub
sistencc allowances for veterans at
tending school, student veterans will
find the going a little easier. The
long waited bill increases living al
lowances for single veterans from
SOS TO SIS per month; for veterans
with one dependent, from $50 to
sos per month, and for veterans
with two or more dependents, from
$50 to $3.50 per month.
At a casual glance, these increases
don't sound so great in amount, and
few veterans will be able to get
along, even under the new scale,
without some source of additional
income to help balance the budget
But to a married vet with one child,
for example who has been getting
by on 500 per month from the gov
eminent we can see how the extra
$50 is going to look like money
from heaven.
We have no doubt that all the
student veterans will be able to
put their additional allowances to
good use one way or another. In
cidentally the new law goes into
effect on April 1, 1913.

Trade Board Will Aid
New Congressman
To Find Homes Here

New members Of the Senate and
House will have available to them
the help of the Washington Board
Of Trade in q search for places to
live In Washington.
That was disclosed today by q
Board of Trade spokesman, who
said that, while plans are not
yet complete, substantially the
same procedure will be followed
this year as that in 1916. Plans
are In charge of the Congressional
relations committee headed by
Howard w. Kacy.
In 1916, the official explained,
geographic congratulations were
sent TO new members of Congress
chosen by the voters.
Th;: message was followed by
letters, in which the Board of Trade
extended a welcome to the COM
munity and offered use OF board
facilities to help locate places to
live for new members and their
families and stats.
In that year, 126 new members
were elected, the official said, and
all received the offer. About 80
were in communication with the
board, and of those about 40 OBJ
tanned homes through the boards
service in cooperation with men,
bers of the Washington Real Estate
Board.
'It is. of course, difficult prob
lem to fnd a home for member
of Congress, as well as for anyone
else" the board spokesman pointed
out.
But it has been cur feeling that
the community has. a special res
possibility to welcome new men,
bers and make it easier for them
to become adjusted here"
After arrival of the new mem
bers, a dinner and other events
were arranged for them under
Board of Trade sponsorship. Pres
ent plans call for similar events
for new members elected next
week.

New Control Unit

Heut Automatically
By D. M. Dsrxin

In order satisfactorily to combat
the coolest weather usually en-
countered in = given locality, radia-
tors and other heating media must
be large enough to provide sufficient
heat 80 that an indoor tempera-
ture Of 10 degrees or more may be
maintained.
Only a part Of that heating ca
pacity is required during average
cold weather and a very small frac-
ton of it is necessary on mild
days. Ordinary room thermome-
tiers keep the heating plant turning
off and on at intervals.
While on, the heating plant
operates at full capacity regardless
Of weather conditions. This re-
suits in unnecessary fuel waste and
increased heating costs.
A new, electronic, automatic
temperature control for homes and
small buildings, which anticipates
heating requirements OF the mouse
and changes of size of the heating
system in accordance with outdoor
temperatures, has just been placed
on the market
This new, electronic temperature
control system is more efficient in

Expert Answers
Queries From
HousehoIders
By Roger G. Whitman

Question: We are building our
own home and would like infor-
nation on insulating the floors
We haven't any basement and
would like to keep the floors as
warm as possible. I have some
blanket-type insulation left from
the walls and would like to use it
if possible. Or would there be
something else to use? If we use
the blanket insulation, should the
vapor side be put facing toward the
floors or the ground?
Answer: If you have not yet
started to build, I advise you to
reconsider the idea of a good base
ment with a waterproof concrete
floor The additional cost would
be we'll worthwhile. If this can
not be managed, give the under
side of the first f1oorboards two
coats of liquid asphalt paint, cover
ing all surfaces, including the ends
OF the joists. Then put up your
