TOKYO, Sunday, April 6.-The
off-record negotiations on prisoner
exchange at Panmunjom produced
a formula which may lead to
agreement on a Korean truce
within the month.
United Nations observers who
have viewed the talks with eau
ticn from the start now say an
end could come with startling
suddenness.
Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway and
most Of his higher lieutenants are
taking the attitude, well believe
lit when we see it,"
But others whose opinion mus
be reckoned with are showing real
optimism for the first time.
Their reasons:
!. Agreement on the method fol-
exchanging prisoners of war is
in the works. This was revealed
Friday in a United Nations an
nouncement which said talks or
POW exchange had been recessed
Ito develop additional avenues
for agreement. Develop" is the
key word. It wasn't to discover
but to develop"
2. Once the prisoner exchange
deal is completed and both sides
are happy, bargain could finish
off the talks in a matter of hours
That bargain would be for the
United Nations to withdraw its
demanded ban on rebuilding RED
iairfelds. providing the Commu-
niSts gave in on the nomination
of Soviet Russia as a neutral OBJ
server.
3. Settlement of the airfields
and Russian issues would pave the
way for a dramatic finish which
would be right down the Red

Wet Basement Is Home Owners Biggest Headache

And he uses calcium chloride to
speed the setting Of his Portland
cement mixtures. He mixes q
pound Of these crystals in a gallon
Of water putting them in a jug,
filling the jug with water and
shaking it until all crystals are
dissolved"
ut costs 51z cents per gallon"
he says, compared with other
silicate of soda and chlorine quick
settlers. which cost 81 or So per
gallon"
The compressive strength of
concrete in one day of setting is
rated as ITO per cent greater when
a 2 per cent addition Of calcium
chloride is made.
Evening star., 1952-09-06
By Dovid G. Boreuther

"Of all the old homes in the
United States-30 years or more
in age-10 per cent have wet eel.
lars. OF the millions of newer
homes completed since 1945. ar
estimated 30 per cent have wet
or damp cellars"
That is the statement of a pro-
fesSional waterproofer. So If you
have a moisture problem in your
basement, you don't have to feel
lonesome.
However. that 80 per cent esti-
mate for the new houses may be
high, unless you count all Of the
instances Of rain water flowing
in basement windows because of
improper grading and all Of the
excessive condensation encoun-
tered before new home owners
learn the Importance of ventila-
ton and get around to wrapping
water pipes to keep them from
sweating and dripping in hot
weather.
But in view of the economy of
cinder block or concrete block
construction and the prevalence
of such types of basement walls,
there is little doubt that cellar
dampness problems have increased
greatly.
Letters to this department in
dicate clearly that the wet base
ment problem is the most common
in all house ailments. One woman
is so discouraged by the odor of
in one corner Of her house
that she writes to ask if she should
sell the house and buy another.
A professional waterproofer of
Sacramento. Calf. writes to say
that he has never seen a base
ment that could not be COM
pletely waterproofed. Although
an effective sealing of a basement
on the inside is generally con-
sidered to be next to impossible
when free water is flowing in.
Evening star., 1952-09-06

This businessman recently water
lproofed a basement where water
was coming in at a rate Of i've
gallons per minute. Working 81
feet underground against a water
pressure Of IS pounds to the
square inch, he reports having
sealed the basement so effec-
lively that "this job now has
dust on the floor"
Like other successful water
prooferS, he uses no patent-medi-
cine type of cure-all that is sup
posed to keep a cellar dry after
the magic stuff is painted on with
a paint brush. So many false
claims have been made for such
shortcut products that in some
arees they have been withdrawn
rom the market-local dealers
refusing to have any part in mis-
leading harrassed home owners.
Research engineers of the Hous-
ing and Home Finance Agency in
Washington have made extensive
tests Of various basement water
prooflng methods. Joseph H.
Ordendorff, director of the division
OF housing research, says: 1--WE
doubt that there is any cure-all
which will guarantee a dry base
ment when brushed or troweled
on the interior face of a basement
wall. Tests Of many OF these
highly advertised products have
been made at the National Bu-
reau OF Standards. The basic in
gredient Of most Of them is Port
land cement and few, if any. show
any marked superiority in pre-
venting dampness over Portland
cement"
The products tested included
clay asphalt emulsions, bituminous
solutions. finely ground iron, cal
c1um chloride. sodium silicate.
oleates. parafin and
various oils, paints and varnishes.
They were tested against plain
lean concrete mixtures.
The report on the tests said: ut
Is not a difficult matter to make
a concrete that is impermeable to
water under heads as great as 20
pounds per square inch. Such
pressures exceed those encoun.
tered in by far the greater ma
Jority Of concrete structures
Evening star., 1952-09-06

Hence, since concrete can be so
made without the use of water
prooflngs. they would seem to be
needless"
There was one waterproofing
admixture that won an exception
in the Government teSts-"The
ammonical copper solution of cell
lulose seems to be the only dis
tinctly different new material" :"
the report states.
This is a compound that the
Sacramento man uses. 1T will
stick to almost any surface except
new wood" he says. but gives
better results on brick, concrete,
plaster, stucco and pumice brick
surfaces"

Dining Room Popular
Many of the guests later went
out Massachusetts, avenue to the
party of the Bolivian Ambassador
and Sonora de Martinez Vargas;
others had just come from there.
The dining room at the Austrian

hors d'oeuvre for the cocktail hour,
and the bar was set up in the
study between the hall and the
dining room. A low bowl of bright
yellow jonquils occupied the CEN
ter of the dining table over which
hung the handsome crystal chan

Raymond D. Muir were among the
early callers and were on their way
to the Bolivian party.
Something else has been added
to the embassy which attracted
attention and much admiration:
the unusual Meissen china. It is
very old and unlike the customary
patterns has wide colored borders
about the edge of plates and sau-
GERS and the tops of cups. It is
china that was made for the Am
bassador's family in olden times,
and they have brought much of it
with them for their Washington
home.
The reception yesterday was de-
lightfully small and the conversa-
ton lively and interesting. The
success Of the party augurs well
for the Austrian newcomers to
embassy row.
