Protective Measures Can Prevent
Greet Expensive MiIdew Damage
By Ertta Haley
By Ertta Haley

IF YOU live In a climate which is
i relatively damp. and about three
quarters Of the country is consid-
cred damp. you may have trouble
with mildew damage. It's certainly
as prevalent as moth damage, and
Just as expensive.
The problem is a year-around al.
fair. but It is frequently more dam
aging when the weather is mild.
In winter at least you'll have some
heat with which to dry the home
and its contents, but the only kind
you have In summer Is humid heatl
Without proper precautionary
measures you may find that mil
dew has attacked not only furnish
ings and goods which are stored, but
also your rugs. woodwork, clothing
and even foods.
Few can afford the dehumIdifiers
which operate automatically and do
. excellent Job Of drying the moiS-
ture out Of the air. but there are
many measures you can take TO
prevent the really expensive dam
age to your clothing and furnish
inEs.
Many Of these do not involve Q
great deal Of time and labor. It's
simply being aware Of the musti-
ness which is n clue TO mildew
presence. and taking simple meas
ures TO prevent the growth.
Once damage has been done,
there are measures TO take which
win get rid Of the mildew, but you
should get to the work promptly as
II win continue TO grow unless some
thing IL done Immediately. Mildew
may then become exceedingly diff
cult to remove entirely.
Checking for mildew can be q part
Of your housekeeping routine, and
preventive measures can be incor-
porated into the cleaning routine,
Just as are other routineS.
Proper Ventilation
Prevents Damage
Whenever IT'S possible, remove
causes Of dampneSS In your home.

Nobody testifies to things he's

Il beg your pardon sir" Sping-

the senator has testified under
oath that he was born in a GER
tain place in Texas He didn't see
it, his mother told him he was
born there. Therefore, he believes
it and has so testified under oath
on many occasions"
ConnaIly's usually florid COM
plexion deepened to red as the
packed room guffawed loudly at
this brilliant deflation of Con-
nally's would-be smartness. The
irate senator turned to the chair

But with his leaving the senate

the South's old motto, Get elect

Tom Connolly. Old
School Senofor. In
Sad Goodbye
BY ALVIN Il. WHITE

Washington - CAMP - Last
week clustering, bulldozing, brow
beating Tom Connally, senator
from Texas, said goodbye to the
U. S. Senate. AS he said goodbye
to his colleagues, winding up a
35 year career in Congress, the
old man was just one step away
from open tears.
Seventy-five year old "Tawn"
as he was called by local writers,
couldn't face his constituency this
year and campaign with the vigor
of old. He was afraid. Afraid of
defeat. The same tactics that won
him the senate seat were now
heavily moving against him-old
age.
To me, Tom Connally is best re-
membered as a staunch supporter
of white supremacy, poll tax
lynch law. l got that through
watching him, hearing him and
seing him in action in Washing
ton when he was one of the
south's spokesman in every thing
relating to the South.
How he was in Texas to native
born Texans is something with
which l am unfamiliar, but his
attitude around the capital on
things relating to breaking bar
riers for Colored southernerS is il
Illustrated by his quizzing of a
witness testifying on the anti
lynch measures introduced in
Washington before World War II.
At this session held in the
caucus room of the senate, were
Walter White, William HASTE
President Spingarn of the MA
ACP, Arthur Roper, the sociolo-
gist, and a host of others inter-
ested in the passage of an anti
lynch bill. All had testified, but
Connally. a member of the COM
mittee haraSsed. browbeat, in
suited and sneered at each and
every one.
He was not the chairman of
that subcommittee. but he was
the wheel around which the
South's attack revolved. Witness
after witness took the chair and
was submitted to Connally's aCrid
abuse. Finally came Spingarn
Here is how it happened as I re-
call If not the exact dialogue.
The huge room was packed like
sardines in a can. Newspaper men
were almost pushed out of their
seats by the group eager to hear
this tilt. They leaned forward to
catch every word of the brilliant
testimony.
The usual preliminaries pre-
ceeded Spingarn's testimony -
name, occupation, etc. Texas
Tawn stopped into the breach
armed with a few wtrolic verbal
barbs.
What kind of a lawyer are
you ?" he asked Spingarn. Did
you ever go into court to defend
mans life?"
mo sir" Spingarn respectfully
replied Il represent firms and
such in civil actions"
oh" sneered Tawn, scoring, he
thought, a solid hit. so you're one
Of them big New York corpora
ton lawyers. Well, you are here
to testify against what you call
lynching. Did you ever see a
lynching?"
Spingarn shook his head and
answered: mo sir, I've never seen
a lynching"
"Ah ha," triumphantly yelled
Connally. peering over the black
horn rim glasses he wore way
down on his nose. Here's a wit
ness testifying to something he's
never seen. He only heard about
lynching, so he believes IT,"
Then Connally launched into his
best satire attempting to rip the
testimony to shreds. He ridiculed
Spingarn and the idea of a man
testifying TO anything he'd never

Mildew killing chemicals diluted

Simple Precautions

are used infrequently2 These easily

day or two until the moisture has

while your clothing hangs in the
sun. You can 60 over the clothing
with brush or vacuum cleaner at
tachment TO remove the loose
spores.
Crevices Of upholstered furniture
are particularly susceptible to mil
dew damage. Its smart to turn a
fan TO them regularly for airing,
and at the same time to use the
crevice cleaner attachment OF the
vacuum cleaner for this purpose.
Musty odors In Easements can be
cleared out In a hurry by turning
an electric heater fan on for an hour
or two to dry out the cellar. II this
doesn't do the trick the mustiness
still persists. then sprinkle chloride
Of lime on the floor. Leave the
chemical on until the odor dlsap-
pears.
Soiled laundry. especially II It's
damp Is especially susceptible to
mildew damage. Not only should
your clothes hamper be thoroughly
aired and dried. but so should the
clothes before they're placed in It.
Dampened laundry which doesn't
get ironed Is also very liable to
damage. Place this In a plastic bag
and store In the refrigerator, until
you have time for ironing.

Some of these companies used

A heavy electrical storm passed
over the Dover area a short time
before the fire was discovered, and
the possibility of the building being
struck by lightning was considered
as a cause, as was also the possi-

Postal Clerks Muy Smoke

NEW YORK - (H1 49, Postoffice
clerks in Manhattan now are per-
mitted to smoke at their desks,
play the radio and send out for
coffee on the long night shifts.
Clerks now may smoke except
when dealing directly with the pub
lie (selling stamps) or when
working around open mail sacks.
Playing the radio is restricted to
hours when the postoffice is clos
ed to the public and coffee calls
are permitted only in regular
time-Off periods.
Similar policies have been in eff
feet for years at other general
pOstoffices in the city. 1t was
found that outright prohibition of
smoking resulted in the ,time-cOn-
suming practices of smoking in
washrOOms or elsewhere.
