Squeokinq Floors and Other Problems
By Roger c. Whitman

Question My upstairs hall,
which has been covered with
linoleum for some years, has de-
veloped a squak In several places.
Is IT possible to silence the
squeaking without taking up the
Hnoleum? It is still In pretty
fair condition.
Answer-I'm sorry to say that
the linoleurn win first have to be
taken UP. at least over the areas
OF the squeaks. It is difficult to-
pry OF linoleum without tearing
1t, but a good linoleurn man might
be able to do it. II the squeaks
only happen to be at one end Of
the hall, you. Of course, won't
have to take Up all the linoleum,
but just enough so that you can
secure the offending boards.
Drive the nails in at an angle
so that they won't work loose,
and be sure to set the nail heads
below floor level so that they
won't cut the linoleum.
Converting Heat.
QuestiOn-We have quite a
large house in the country heated
with steam. Would 1t be possible
to convert to hot-water heating
without too much trouble? Would
1t be necessary to put a return
pipe in each room? ] have heard
that such q pipe Is not neceS-
sary. What do you advise?
Answer - To convert from
from steam to hot water would
require quite a number of
changes such as larger radiators
and a new boiler. Whether you
have a one-pipe or two-pipe sys-
tenn, the opposite end of the ra-
diator needs a return pipe to
carry the cooled water back to-
ward the boiler. A competent
local heating contractor can give
you some idea of the cost of such
a conversion. But all / can say
is that such work would be fairly
expensive.
Black Spots ON Floor.
Question-Our floors were re-
Gently finished with q penetrate
ing wax and no varnish or shellac
was ever used on them. The floors
have not been properly cared for
and there are several coal-black
spots here and there. Liquid |

Unwanted Driveway.
Question Il have a concrete
driveway in front OF the house
and don't need since the garage
will be near the road. Do I have
to break up the concrete and
take it out before I have it filled
in with earth?
Answer-Yes, it will be neces-
sary to remove the concrete in
order to get sufficient depth for
the earth fill. Otherwise, you
will find 1t difficult to maintain
a good lawn in the area.

surface with an ordinary bleach
solution. Can you advise what to
use on these spots?
Aliswer-Of course, the best
procedure would be to have the
floors sanded with a floor scrap
ing machine. Otherwise, try
cleaning the spots with turpen-
tine and a number one or two
steel wool. If the above does not
bring about good results, apply
a hot saturated solution of oxalic
acid. Leave the solution on over
night. then rinse with clear wa
ter. When the wood is dry,
smooth if necessary with 100"
sandpaper. Wipe off the dust and
touch UP the spots With the same
material that was originally used
on the floors.
Cleaning Windows.
1 QueSti0n.-We bought an old
farmhouse and the windows so
far can't be cleaned. I have tried
everything on them and practi-
cally all of the commercial clean
ers, but they remain cloudy.
Would. appreciate your advice.
AnSwer-You might try clean
ing the windows with one of the
securing powders that are adver-
tised as being scratches. The
use Of kerosene and the securing
powder sometimes helps loosen
the dirt. Effective results are
frequently obtained by cleaning
glass with crumpled newspapers.
If kerosene is used, wash the
surface with ammonia and wa
ter, using a cupful in each gallon
Of warm water. Have you tried

Sfassen VIII Confer
In London on Pleas
For Russian Trade
BY the Assoeiuted Press

LONDON. March 27.-Harold
Stassen, United States foreign
aid chief, came to London today
to iron out differences between
the United States and Britain
over Prime Minister Churchill's
proposal to relax restrictions on
trade with Russia.
About all Mr.. StaSsen would
say to reporters was that East
West trade was matter of great
Importance and I'VE should come
to agreeable policies" He added
that shipping to the Soviets Of
goods which have been classed
as strategic was "a matter of
concern"
Mr.. Stassen will open a two
day conference on Monday with
top British and French officials
aimed at hammering out an
agreement on just how far the
West should go in easing the
ban on sale of strategic goods
to the Soviet bloc in Europe.
Agreeable to Some Changes.
Western diplomats said the
United States has consented in
secret preliminary talks to some
changes in the four-year-old
embargo. but feels Britain wants
to go too far.
Britain, France and other
trade-hungry allies have joined
in urging the United States to
drop some items from the BAN
ned lists and allow increases in
quotas imposed on sales of other
goods.
Mr.. Churchill set the stage for
negotiations last month by call
ing for - substantial relaxa-
ton" In the regulations affecting
non = military manufactured
goods and raw materials. The
prime minister made clear that
his proposal did not apply to
Red China before settlement Of
the Korea and Indo- China prob
lens.
Mr.. Churchill has argued that
more trade with the Russians
will help ease international ten
sion.
British View Too Radical.
Official sources said Mr.. Stas-
sens trip to London was ar
ranged after British-American
differences on Mr.. Churchill's
proposal cropped UP during Brit
ish. French and American talks
in London. United States offici-
ais found the British too radical
in their recommendations for re-
vision of the embargo lists.
At the same time. Britain
served notice on Paris consul
tative group, which supervises
the embargo. that she intended
to press for revision of the lists.
The group includes delegates of
the IA NATO countries plus
Japan and West Germany.
Letup in Embargo Fought.
Apparently all the European
allies were pressing for some
kind of letup in the embargo.
Their businessmen-teased by
large trade offers recently made
by the Kremlin-were clamoring
to do more business with the
Iron Curtain countries.
So far the Russians have
signed only a relatively small
number of new contracts. But
the big propaganda fanfare &C
companying the Soviet trade
drive has attracted businessmen
who are worried about increased
competition in world markets
from resurgent West Germany
and Japan.
The United Nations Economic
Commission for Europe last week
unanimously approved a resolu-
ton calling for increased East
West trade. The resolution was
Jointly sponsored by Britain and
Russia. AS a result, the COM
mission has convened an East
West trade conference in Ge-
neva on April 20.
