Contract for Gettino
Funds for Housing
Also Is Approved

The District Redevelopment
Land Agency yesterday adopted
q set of bylaws and approved a
contract for obtaining funds from
the Housing and Home Finance
Agency to plan for slum clearance
here.
Members of the agency met at
the District Building with the
newly appointed executive direc-
tor, John r. Searles, jr., for the
first time.
The housing agency has ap-
proved a preliminary advance Of
S170,185 to get the slum clearance
and redevelopment program under
way. When the funds are obtained,
some money will be turned over
to the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission for PLAN
ming projects.
Agency members pointed out
that after the planning commission
has certified a site to the land
agency. the Commissioners must
hold public hearing before a re-
development project is finally
approved.
The three areas to be studied
oy the planning commission are:
Southwest. bounded by Virginia
avenue, Seventh street, James
Creek parkway and P street;
Southeast, bounded by Penn
sylvania avenue, South Capitol
street. Eleventh and N streets,
and Northwest, bounded by New
York avenue, Fifth street, North
Capitol street and Constitution
avenue.
These are merely broad general
areas, Mr.. Searles pointed out,
from which project sites may be
selected.
In addition to the preliminary
advance from the housing agency,
Congress has appropriated $4,000
for the agency this fiscal year.
Until now the agency, set UP in
1946, has had no funds.

Mirrors Can Lend Charm Balance to Room Decorations
by GIodys MIIIer
Secretary. New York Chapter,
American institute Of Decorators


American Institute Of Decorators
A decorating plan resembles
very much the resolutions you
make at the New Year. If your
intentions are good, yet you never
do anything about them. nothing
happens. And following through
on one resolution isn't enough.
1t must be repeated many times
to become effective.
Millions of words are written
every year. honestly trying to help
the reading public to achieve bet
ter homes. But for some reason,
when a family moves, or redec-
crates. they fail to make an over
all plan. Or II they do, they often
change it-whenever the painter.
q friend. a delivery boy, the milk
man, or any one seeing only part
Of the completed whole says II

suggestion.
Good as All of Its Parts.
Remember q successfully deco
rated room is only as good as all
of its parts. II you do one thing
in one area, 1t is necessary to do
something to another to compen-
safe or balance.
This premise was never truer
than in the, use of mirrors. Mir
rors properly used add much to
the decorative effect, but improp-
erly used. they are lost as is q
picture window facing a street.
A mirror properly used should
be hung so that 1t reflects either
an interesting section of the room,
an attractive scene at all times,
or a vista that adds immeasurably
to the illusion that the room and
the home are larger. II the mir
ror has the added duty of serving
as a grooming aid, the light should
be correctly placed SO that you
are not in a shadow. and so that
the light source is not reflected
badly into the room.
Can BE Disturbing.
If the mirror is placed in q
living room or dining room, it
should be placed so that people
sitting in front of it are not dis
turbed by seeing themselves in it
whenever they look up. This factor
can be disturbing.
In this dining room, the mirror
is centered on the wall behind
the buffet. where it reflects the
entrance to the dining room, the
attractive lowered doors at the
opening and the unusual wall dec
orations of the floral spray on
either side Of the door, which are
repeated on either side of the
mirror to frame it. In the far dis
tance, you can also see the en-
trance into the living room. At
one angle. the mirror also reflects
the garden view from the window
This mirror makes the room
seem larger. The buffet is placed
In front Of the mirror. preventing
those seated at the table from
looking into it at an awkard angle.

through according to plan. This

That is the way a top-ranking
American diplomat describes the

ports Of the growing strength Of

psychological shot-in-the-arm to
the Communists. Within a year,
they could also easily overpower
these islands"
According to the diplomat, both
American and Filipino officials are
aware that the Huks are in direct
contact by radio with the Chinese
Reds. 1t is generally assumed by
officials that they are directed by
the Russians in China.
Huks Grow to 10000.
The Huks now have boosted
their armed strength to 10000
guerrillas against a government
troop and constabulary force of
10000. Their leader is Louis
Taruc, an avowed, Marxist-trained
Communist.
Since 1916, the Huks have
spread from four provinces in the
interior of LuEon to 18 provinces
and to several islands adjacent to
Luzon. Their raids on villages
have been stepped up from one a
month to as many as six a day.
AS they have increased their
following, the Huks have dropped
all pretensionS of being "agrarian
reformers" and have boldly
changed their name from
