FOAM RUBBER MATTRESSES.
fFron1 Mrs. M. E. H., Washington
With reference to your inquiry
concerning foam rubber mattress
and springs I do not believe you
would regret buying them. ]
bought some two years ago and
since I was buying for twin beds
did considerable searching for
best prices. I finally bought them
from a large mail-order store be-
ginning with the letters S and r
and at a special sale bought both
mattresses and springs. These
are not covered with fancy ticking
but does not matter.
They are not as warm in win
ter as the regular innerspring
and we have used two heavy all
wool blankets instead of a light
and a heavy blanket as we did
with our old mattresses. But they
are simply wonderful on hot
Imuggy Washington night IN the
summer, and we think this means
a lot-Washington weather being
what it is.
AS to odor we have never noticed
the slightest suggestion of any al
all. I can truthfully say we are
very happy with ours and will
never buy anything else.

WorenCou|d Swing Election
Luncheon Speakers Assert

Two top women officials of
the Democratic and Republican
Parties yesterday took the fair
sex to task for not exercising
their vote.
Both declared that women to-
day, as potential voters, are in the
majority and could swing this
years election if they so desired.
The leaders, Mrs. India Ed
wards. vice chairman of the
Democratic National Committee,
and Mrs. Clifford Mayes, assistant
chairman of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, were guest
speakers at the Ladies Lunch
con" Of the 40th annual meeting
of the United States Chamber of
Commerce, now in session here.
More than $500 women were
present at the luncheon. held in
the Hotel Statler.
Only little over one-half of
the electorate even bothered to go
to the polls in l948, Mrs. Edwards
pointed out, with an estimated
one-half Of that number women
voters.
I'VE have reliable figures-cen-
sus figures-to show what women
can do in '52," she said. women
hold the balance of power this
year and can elect the President
of the United States and the Con-
gress that will support him. For
there are more women eligible to
vote in 1852 than the total num-
ber of people who voted in 1948,
both men and women.
Women" Mrs. Edwards added
"are really in this election right
up to their poodle cuts.
Women are going to be wooed
and courted by every candidate,
local and national" she predicted.
'The candidates think we are
powerful people, they are really
counting on U.s."
Mrs. Mayes, taking up the same
subject, said the census figures of
81 million women as compared to
40 million men in this country
point up more than the emergence
of women.
"These figures challenge us, in
our new positions of trust and
high endeavor, to meet our new
responsibilities" she declared.
Mrs. Mayes said the women of
this country can be fearful of war
clouds and complain about high
spending and higher taxes, but
do we do anything except talk
about them?"
1--WE are appalled, by increasing
evidence of corruption in high
places, but do we 60 to the polls
to vote for men and women of
honesty, integrity and high prin-
Iciple?" she asked.
Failure OF one woman to vote
can be a decisive factor in an
election, she stressed.
"One vote decided the PreSl-
Dental election of 1876" she de-
clared. 1T lost the election for
the Democratic candidate Samuel
Tilden. When the electoral votes
from certain States were disputed
in this election, the Electoral
Commission voted 8 to 7 to accept
the electors for Republican Ruth
erford B. Hayes"
Mrs. Mayes told the women there
is no argument that the major
tax burden of the nation is borne
by men through taxes and busi-
ness.
1T is the housekeeper, however
who has to meet the situation of
high prices and high taxes in her
daily shopping" she said. 1T is

I would like a recipe for pine

Also to the woman asking about

The biggest wardrobe invest
ment, and the one most women
look into carefully. is the acqui-
sttion Of their winter coat.
Most women also never under
estimate the power Of the coat
in helping them formulate just
the right wardrobe for them
selves, either. The coat can make
or break the best wardrobe plans.
OF prime consideration in Sc
lecting o winter wrap is that 1t
suit the type of life you lead. A
great many women want a coat
for shopping, general wear and a
good travel coat all rolled into
one. Here is the classic type
