TRAVELLING HINTS.

Mrs. r. w. G., ArlingtonJ
May I offer a few travelling
hints gained from experience
with an eight-month-old
daughter on an automobile
trip? I carried jars and cans
Of baby food and when we
would stop at a restaurant, I
would take a kit with food,
can opener, baby's own spoon,
bib, small towel and an indis-
penSable plastic dish with
three sections in with us.
Even before ordering, 1 asked
the waitress to fill the lower
section of the dish with hot
water which suff1ced to warm
the baby's food. This section
dish is wonderful-the plastic
type is lightweight, even
when filled with water, and
withStands hard usage.
Another useful item (sold in
grocery stores and drugstores)
is q plastic snap-on cover for
baby food jars. I wish they
came in the size for Junior
foods the waitress also heated
a baby's bottle of milk which
we took along for car use.
Many places did not have
high chairs, so we used our
portable highchair which
hooks over the back of any
type chair.
Breakfast was easy. Her
Majesty ate before we left the
motels. Sitting in the portable
highchair. her menu consisted
of a soft boiled egg, Cooked
in the bottle warmer). fruit
from a jar. baby cereal made
with warm milk, all served in
the section dish. This made
the breakfast stop for my hus-
band and me much more
pleasant as the baby was con-
tented to sit and nibble on a
piece of toast.
Let me thank the mother
who wrote in before December
saying that dining cars Of
trains do not use highchairs.
That bit of information was
invaluable for our trip at
Christmas. The portable high
chair solved our problem on
the train trip to California.

DAMP BASEMENT.
III. L., ArlingtOn)

For Mrs. A. o. W., Arling-
ton: After enduring a wet
basement here for many years,
we now have it entirely under
control from the inside. First,
as an experiment, We put on
the inside walls of cinder
block a thin layer of cement,
from the floor up to ground
level. This seemed to be do
ing the job, but we added a
water stop in a few bad places,
and covered it all finally with
a special waterproofing white
paint. Result, even through
the recent heavy rains, SO per
cent perfect.
Of course, this means that
one must have the Seeping
wall free from shelves, ETC.,
so that one can do a good job
on them. But even if you have
to move the stairs and parti-
tions it would be less work
probably, and ,surer results
than the outside operation. If
interested write to us through
Readers Clearing House for
further details.

FURNITURE.

mrs. G. E. s., Arlington
I am writing this in answer
to the young homemaker's
questions concerning light
wood finishes versus dark fin
ishes. 1 am completely sold on
light finishes. For 18 years
have lived with dark furniture
and a dust cloth. Ugh! Now
that we have lined oak furni-
ture / will never have dark
finishes again.
Any kind of finish will show
scuff marks and scratches as
we all know, but with a blond
scratch stick and polish, the
marks can be covered UP cas-
lily. However, I suggest one or
more coats of a good paste wax
should be applied Immediately
upon arrival of the new fur
niture. The effort of early
waxing will pay dividends, re-
gardless of the type of finish.
I also see no reason to hold
of buying a few light pieces
at a time because you now
have the dark. In my opinion,
they can blend.

SteVedore Executive
Accused Of Bribery
In Pier Investigation
By the AssoeicSsd Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-The
president of the Nations biggest
stevedoring company has been
charged with commercial bribery.
It is the first court action against
a business executive as a result
of the State Crime Commission S
waterfront inquiry here.
Frank w. Nolan, 81, president
of. the Jarka Corp, was arrested
yesterday on a grand jury's four
count criminal action accusing
him of bribing steamship COM
pany officials to steer their busi-
ness to his concern.
District Attorney Frank S.
Hogan said Jarka averages $25
million a year in business.
Released in $1,000 Bail.
Nolan, of South Orange, N. j.,
told newsmen after his arraign-
ment in Special Sessions that the
charge "iS wholly unwarranted
and has no foundation" Nolan
pleaded not guilty at the arraign-
ment and was freed in $1,000
bail pending trial March II.
If convicted on all four counts,
he could receive maximum
sentence of four years imprison-
ment and a $4,000 fine.
Mr.. Hogan said the charges
against Nolan Stemmed directly
from testimony he gave the
crime commission at it's public
hearing here on December 3.
The commission, which has no
power to prosecute. sought to ex-
pose to public scrutiny racketS
which allegedly milk $3.50 million
annually from the 81 billion
shipping industry here.
Tells of "GOOd Will" Payments.
Nolan told the commission he
made good will" payments of
thousands Of dollars at Christ
mas time to steamship line
executives and to high officials
of the AFL international Long
shoremen's Association. He said
the payments had no effect on
any public COSTS"
One count against Nolan al
leges he gave $4,000 in Gov
ernment Bonds on January 2,
1851. to Walter M. Wells, presi-
dent of the Isthmian Steamship
Co., a subsidiary of the United
States Steel Corp.
The other three counts accuse
the Jarka president of giving
cash gifts totaling $2,4OO to J. w.
o. Won Herbulis, vice president
of the Waterman Steamship Co.,
between April S, 1851, and jan
uary 5, 1852.
Inquiry Continues.
Mr.. Hogan said the grand jury
is continuing its investigation of
Nolan's "gift-giving activities"
The prosecutor said Nolan had
given other gifts to Mr.. Wells
and Mr.. Won Herbulis in 1949
and 1850 but that the passage
of time under the statute of linn
itations prevents additional
charges.
After the arraignment, Nolan
wrote a brief statement for
,neWsmen. He said: II have never
'brihed anybody in my life. So
far as I know, nobody has ever
said that I bribed him. That is
all I have to say now. and Lam
willing to 1et the final decision
bring out the fa6tS."
