Gadget Makers
Boost Paint Use
With New Products
By D. M. Derwin

The painting industry has made
great strides in making paints so
foolproof and easy to apply that
even the rank amateur can turn
out work like a professionals.
And each year more and more
people, satisfied with their first
attempts, continue to find paint
ing your own jobs is way to
save money.
Some of this credit should also
go to those companies not in the
paint industry itself which have
made painting accessories to take
as much fuss and musS out of
painting as possible-firms like
those who make paint rollers
which speed up painting, and like
the firm which recently marketed
a paint brush cleaner and pre-
servative that, according to the
manufacturer, will clean and pre-
serve a paint brush or roller in
less than minute.
Today a large percentage of
home owners do some or all of
their own painting. These home
owners will welcome a new home
paint mixer or stirrer now on the
market. This mixer can be left
on during painting and covers
only half the top of the can so
that the condition of the paint
can be noted as one paints. It
encourages frequent stirring of the
paint with the result that the
finished painting is better.
This mixer or stirrer keeps the
hands clean and also provides a /
straight edge brush wiper and a
brush hanging hook on the han
die. which permits the brush to
dip into the can.
This Stirrer is available in two
sizes, one to fit gallon or quart
can and the other to fit quart or
pint can.

. Hartman Convinced
He Is Best Qualified
Man for President

w. Averell Hartman, a mil
lionaire with a reputation for
modesty, emerged today as a
candidate for President eager to
sing his own praises.
In Mr.. Harriman's frank
opinion, he is the man best quail
fed for President. His views and
his experience both at home and
abroad make him the ideal choice
of the Democratic Party. He can
lick anything the Republicans put
up. And he has no political
compliments.
The lean New Yorker said all
thiS-and more-at a luncheon
meeting yesterday in the National
Press Club. He said some of it
haltingly. But he said it with a
conviction that surprised the
skepticS in the Washington press
corps.
1T occurred to me-" he told
the newspapermen, that perhaps
you wanted me to talk about my
self. And if my assumption is
correct I am going to talk
about myself.
Il find that in this new job
that have (as candidate) got a
lot of things that I have got to
overcome and one of them is this
business about talking about your
self in public"
The Mutual Security admins
traitor then went on to state his
views on a variety of subjects.
He reaffirmed his staunch belief
in the New Deal and the Fair
Deal. He said the domestic and
foreign policies of the Govern
ment are inseparable. He said we
now have the Kremlin off balance
and by intelligent action, world
war can be prevented.
Mr.. Hartman said there is just
one simple issue in the current
campaign: do we believe in the
United States?"
He said he has utmost conf
dence in the Government and the
people. adding:
I'VE have got to have confidence
that our people will understand
the issues. fight for them vigor-
ously. and I am satisfied that if
we do there will be response to
leadership"
I'VE must go forward on all Of
the programs of the New Deal
and of the Fair Deal and the poll
cies adapted to conditions of the
1950s. and if we do that, we can
not have one policy abroad and a
looking back policy here.
Il don't care who the Repub-
lican candidate is. He will be
bound by the Republican tradition.
1--WE know where Taft stands
because he is on record opposing
everything which has made our
country strong and great in the
last 20 years. ;.
Il am a long friend of Gen.
Eisenhower. I nave tremendous
respect for him; but as far as I
am concerned, he has embraced
the Republican traditions and the
Republican objectives; and I have
been. since 1928. released from
those traditions and objectives and
I can tell you that I have never
had happier time than since I
have had that release"
