In the period from 1910 to 1850
however. there was a sharp change
from tenancy to home ownership
bringing home-owners into the
majority for the first time in the
country's history.
This change resulted in q net
loss in the number of rental units

an unusually large production OF
rental units during that period.

Answers Questions
OF Househo|ders
By Roger c. Whitman

Question: Our redwood hot Sc
has been oiled with linseed oil
twice. The natural finish is now
turning black. Could you sug-
gest a better treatment to pre-
serve the red color?
Answer: I suggest that you get
q small portable electric sander
and sand the surfaces lightly, fol-
lowing by thorough busting off
with turpentine. For the next
finish. would prefer a redwood
stain, then a special finish that
is made for durable woods. Ask
for it at a well-stocked paint
store.
Blond Finish for Oak
Question: I have several pieces
Of furniture finished in dark oak.
How could go about getting a
light blond finish on them after
I sand them down to the wood?
Answer: You could speed up
the sanding by the use of a small,
portable electric sander. The al
tentative would be to soften the
old finish with noninf1ammable
varnish remover: you may have
to clean this off with turpentine
after you have finished scraping
and sanding. Consult your paint
dealer.
Some removers require the
wash-off and some do not. The
dark stain must then be bleached
out with a commercial wood
bleach, and you may need to
smooth the wood with finest sand
paper to get a satin smoothness.
For a finish, you can use top
quality pure white shellac, clear
light varniSh or a slow-drying
lacquer. Be careful of fire when
working, as some of the liquids
are inflammable. 1t is not easy
for an amateur to do q good job
Of bleaching. Try not to make
streaks.
Leak Spot on Ceiling
Question: One of the bathroom
pipes sprung leak and the water
came through the ceiling and into
the dining room, leaving a very
ugly yellow spot on the ceiling
paper. Could you suggest some
thing to hide the spot? The CELL
ing is papered and I do not want
to paint over the paper.
Answer: If you are very sure
the spot is thoroughly dry, you
can apply coat of shellac and
then cover the spot with piece of
matching paper. You probably
have an extra roll of the paper
put away somewhere. Thin the
shellac one-half with denatured
alcohol. Put a coat of glue size
over the shellac, when dry, be-
fore applying the patch.

Never Had Courage To Stand Up

Cicero, a suburb on the west side Of Chicago
achieved notoriety overnight. 1t made the front page Of
newspapers throughout the country. But no one got
jealous about-the publicity. For the 10000 people living
in the town proved themselves unworthy of their country
and it's traditions. They live, think and feel in a manner
which makes it possible for many of them to turn INTO a
mob in a matter of hours. Recently they displayed this
ability to prevent a Negro veteran from moving into an
apartment house.
The problem in Cicero is not that two or three
thousand human beings can suddenly turn into sadists
and maniacs. There are ways of handling such a mob. A
grave indictment stands against the other 5000 who lost
or never had the courage to stand up for what is right
and just, though they benefit daily from the fruits Of a
democracy which was won ON the battlefield. Until the citi-
zens of Cicero demonstrate a sense of responsibility and a
resolve that this shall not happen again, they must be
s-dered beyond the pale of freedom-oving Americans.
III same time, the Federal Government, the State of
l-14o1o, Cook County and Cicero authorities must be
watched as to their next steps. They can and should tell
~ whether the Constitution applies to Cicero, or whether
this community will be permitted to continue under the
jungle law Of violence and arson. For his speedy action,
the Illinois Governor, Adlai Stevenson, deserves every
ones commendation.

And one father, West Point
football coach Red Blaik, even had

honor code. / have been listening

when some other indignant parent

AND WHAT KIND OF double
talk is it when Coach Blaik says
what the boys did, they did
of a loyalty that transcends the
code Of HONOR? And now that
the football season is just around

collegiate honor and the level Of
ethics in the field of higher educa-

whether other schools will allow

If any schools allows one of the
cribbers to play football or any

be one of the most disillusioning
