Conference Considers
$4,000 Fund 10 Tell
D. {. Of Suffrage Need

A plan to raise a $25, 900 fund to
educate the public on the need of
suffrage here through advertising,
circularization and general publicity
today is under consideration by a
special committee of the Central
Suffrage Conference.
The plan was recommended last
night by Secretary Jesse B. Manbeck
at a meeting of the conferences
trustees in the board room of the
District Building.
1t takes into consideration the
prospect of attempting to achieve
suffrage while "the idea is hot"
The trustees voted to refer the plan
to the special committee for study.
Wilbur S. Finch, president of the
conference, was appointed chairman
of the special committee studying
the plan.
Kirkland Encouraged.
The conference was told by James
r. Kirkland, counsel for the Sem
ate District Committee, that the
outlook for home rule is more
hopeful" now than it was during
the Goth Congress.
Il feel more encouraged than
ever" he said. This is the first
time I have ever heard a President
of the United States openly, and on
many occasions, say he favors home
rule for the District"
Also encouraging is the fact that
home rule has come to the fore
front on Capitol Hill at an early
date Mr.. Kirkland added. He ex-
planned he has been engaged in
research which will bring Senator
Kefauver, chairman of the Home
Rule Subcommittee of the Senate
District Committee up to date on
home rule in view of the forthcom
ing effort.
Less Detailed Bill.
INF, Kirkland said that this time
theAhill will be more general and
not tbogged down in detail"
He pointed out that the Senate
subcommittee has three very
strong" persons who constitute "a
close-knit group" friendly to suf-
frage. These, he declared, were
Senators Kefauver, Nicely, Democrat,
of West Virginia, and Margaret
Chase Smith, Republican, of Maine.
Benjamin Sigal. a trustee and
member of the District Democratic
Central Committee, said the Auch-
incloss home rule bill is being used
as a pattern for a bill the Demo-
cratic committee is drafting.

Answer: I believe you would be
taking a chance of damaging the
mirror, especially If you have a
steam radiator. If the silvering
and backing are Of poor quality
so that steam could make its way
inside, the mirror would probably
develop black spots or other de-
fects. Try to find better place
for the mirror.

First Aid to Houses
By Rooer e. Whitmon

Question:: Our new home has
six rooms, cement floors, radiant
heat with a gas fuel, ard all
rooms are on one floor. All the
rooms except the living and dining
rooms are covered with asphalt
tiling. The two latter rooms are
covered with a rug cushion and
heavy broadloom carpeting.
The basement is under these
two rooms only. Our problem is
that the radiant heat heats the
basement, but does not keep the
two rooms warm. Is there a
preparation that can be use on
the basement ceiling which will
cause the heat to rise into the
rooms. instead of being DETECTED
into the basement?
In winter time the basement is
almost unbearably warm. while
the two rooms are too cool. Per-
haps the padding and carpetins
cause the heat to 60 into the
basement rather than allow it tc
come into the two rooms.
Answer: You are right in be-
lieving that the padding and
carpeting prevent the heat from
rising into the rooms. They ACT
as an insulation, so that the
heat has nowhere to 60 except
downward into the basement. II
may be possible to have your
heating contractor rearrange the
system so that some OF the heat
will come through a Dashboard
radiator into the living and din
ing rooms.
Or, you may be able to gel
some additional heat by remov-
ing the padding from under the
carpeting. Insulation placed un.
der the floor will help retarc
the flow of heat into the base.
