Press Club Exhibit
Shows Members
Talents in Arts

Members of the National Press
CLUB opened a week-long art
exhibit last night and the caliber
of the entries frankly surprised
the committee in charge.
One hundred entries were re-
|ceived for the show, first of it's
kind ever held. 1t will become
an annual event, according to
Theodore F. Koop, club presi-
dent.
Although oil paintings pre-
dominated, there were water
colorS, pen-and-ink sketches and
sculpture on exhibit. These in
cluded the work of Press Club
members and their families.
Among the artists represented
is Mrs. Estes Kefauver, wife of
the Tennessee Senator. Subjects
include individuals well-known
to Washington, and many ia
miliar scenes.
Ed Edstrom, chairman of the
club library committee, which
arranged the show, said the
quality and number of the en-
tries proved a pleasant surprise.
No prizes are being awarded and
no judging is planned. The ex-
hibit may be viewed by members
and their guests daily until Sat-
urday, at hours governing use of
the club lounge.
In connection with the OPEN
ing. a dance was held last night
in the club ballroom.

More Liberal FILA Terms
Urqed for Low Incomes

Liberalization of FILA terms to
allow low-income families to buy
homes with lower down pay
ments and longer time to pay
off the mortgage is one of the
things needed to keep the Ma
tion's construction volume high.
This and other measures could
keep home construction above
the million mark in 1854. Eman-
uel M. Spiegel, president of the
National Association of Home
Builders, told the Washington
Building Congress yesterday.
Mr.. Spiegel told the group
meeting in the Mayflower Hotel
he expected the Eisenhower Ad-
ministration to support a pro
gressive" housing program that
would include new aids to reha-
bilitate deteriorating dwellings
and other measures to halt
blighting of cities.
The home builders head said
he was optimistic over construc-
ton possibilities during 1854. and
expected new steps would be
taken to encourage cities to seek
! slum eradication.

Protecting your children against tooth
decay is so important !. and newly-dis-
covered anti-enzymes offer so much hope
:. that you naturally look for the best
information on the subject you can find.
Read the December Readers Digest
article, whats All This About Anti
Engine Toothpastes?" Read about the
protection you want in the tooth paste
you buy for your family protection
against the most common disease of all,
tooth decay.
The Readers Digest reports that Lis
terine Antizyme Tooth Paste has the con-
tinuous action anti-enzyme, sodium dehy-
droacetate !. found in no other tooth
paste. It tells you how this invisible in
gredient is actually absorbed, as you
brush, onto the surfaces of the teeth. For
1924 hours after each brushing, Anti
zyme's continuous action stops the en-
zymes that make tooth-decaying acids.
Laboratory tests have proved this in 9
out of every 10 cases.
