Some Household Hints

If you will screw two small towel
racks to the top step of your step
ladder to hold cleaning cloths when
cleaning, you will save lot of up and
down steps.
When hinge screws turn and won't
draw tight, the hole is stripped For a
quick repair, white match or other
small peg, dip it in glue, and drive into
the hole. Drill a small hole in the plug,
and the screw will fold firmly.
For cupboard arrange boxes on a
large cookie sheet. You can then pull
out the sheet and choose the item you
want without any trouble.
When upper grows little stub
born, take lead pencil with a sharp
point and go up and down the Upper a
few times. The graphite will lubricate
the Upper and make it work easily.
Add small pinch of ginger when
cooking dried beans. Even an invalid

ache, the children from minor bruises,
burns, insect bites. In case of serious
trouble it is important to call a doctor
Immediately, but in case of minor in
juries you can usually remedy the
trouble yourself-if you know the right
thing to do and then do it.
Listed below are Is common accidents
and ailments which might happen in
your home this very day. A treatment
for each one is given. Look them over,
or better still, clip this article and file
it away for future reference. And re-
member-DON'T LOSE YOUR HEAD
IF SOMETHING DOES HAPPEN!
KEEP COOL AND CALM!
BURNS are one of the most common
household accidents. If the skin is
Redeemed, or slightly blistered, apply
sterile gauze, or a clean cloth, which
has been soaked in a warm baking
soda solution. Bandage lightly. For
extensive burns where the tissue seems
charred or cooked, call doctor. Never
apply iodine to any kind of burn.
CHOKING is rather common among
young children. Shake the child, or
better still, hit him lightly on the back
up between the shoulder blades. And
why not watch the tot to see that he
doesn't take too much food at time
this will eliminate choking most of the
time.
For INSECT BITES AND STINGS
remove the singer if it is still caught
in the skin. A paste of baking soda,
calamine lotion, or ammonia water
applied to the injured part will bring
relief.
BLEEDING OF A VEIN (the flow
viii be even, the blood dark)-f the
bleeding is serious call doctor. In
the meantime apply pressure with the
fingers, or with a clean compress,
directly over the cut to check the flow.
Elevate the injured part. Loosen the
pressure every Is minutes.
For NOSE BLEEDING have the pa
tient sit with the head slightly back
and breathe through the mouth. Battle
the face and neck with cold water.
Spread a cold wet compress over the
nose.
BRUISES are very painful. To ease
discoloration, elevate the bruised part
and apply cloths wrung out of cold
water.
When a CINDER GETS INTO THE
EYE do not rub the eye Close the
eyelids and let the tears wash the for
eign object out. To speed up expulsion
pull the upper eyelid down over the
lower one. If this method does not work,
look under the eyelid and lift out the
cinder with the tip of clean handker-
chief or piece of gauze. Call a doctor
if the object seems imbedded in the
eyeball.
Many people suffer from CORNS
AND CALLUSES. Do not try to re.
move them with a knife. Corn plasters
and other remedies can be found at
the drug store. Try different ones, and
perhaps you'll find one that will remove
the corns and calluses. For extra
comfort wear shoes that are not toe
tight.

plains bloat on legume pastures as
being due to a high density Of
legumes which sink to the bottom
of the rumen, thus raising the level
of the water in the rumen above
the outlet of the esophagus. One
thing is agreed: bloat does not re-
suit from an over-production of
gas in the rumen as generally
supposed. Scientists now think it
is caused by failure of the cows

QUESTION: How can l recog-
nize blue mold in my tobacco
plant bed?
ANSWER: The disease gets its
name from the characteristic blu
ish sometimes greyish) cottony
mold that develops on the under
side of diseased leaves. Generally,
blue mold is first observed in
spots of plants scattered over the
plant bed. The plants in affected
spots may be first noticed as hav-
ing yellowed leaves with the mar
gins cupped downward. Later the
leaves or entire plants may be
killed in spots, or throughout the
bed, giving it a "burned-over"
appearance. Blue mold does not
cause circular lemon-yellow spots
or brown spots surrounded by
wide yellow bands as does Wild
fire.

News in Brief
S575,860 Sought to Run
Falls Church Schools

School Supt. Irwin H. Schmitt
has proposed a school budget for
Falls Church totaling $515, 300
about $4,000 more than present
for the fiscal year beginning
July l..
The request. however, con-
tains no funds for an increase
in the teachers salary scale
urged by Mr.. Schmitt. Nor does
it include provision for financ-
ing an 100000 school bond
issue which comes before the
voters March 3.
All this is revealed by former
City Councilman Samuel E. Nc
Crary. Mr.. Schmitt presented
the budget estimate to the
School Board last Thursday, but
the board declined to make it
public. Mr.. McCrary released
copies of it today. but would not
say how he received it, adding,
II regard it as being public in
formation" He predicted a tax
boost of nearly 81 per $100
property valuation if the School
Board approves the budget and
the bond issue passes.

Tough Competition
Cuts Steel Prices
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-Tougher
competition is cutting steel prices
and consumers are benefting at
the rate of many thousands of
dollars year, according to Iron
Age. the national Woodworking
weekly.
Base prices have not been cut
so far. except by companies that
had been charging premiums.
Freight absorption is mounting
steadily, however, and cuts in
extra charges are ripping
through the industry" the week.
ly said.
Some producers don't like to
refer to freight absorption and
reductions in extras as price cuts,
but that is the effect they have, +"
said Iron Age. They lower the
mill return and they lower the
cost Of steel to consumers.
United States Steel Corp. had
barely announced its reduction
OF 81 a ton in extras for steel
sheets for moderate drawing re-
quirementS last week when con-
SumerS started preserving its
competitors to do likewise" said
Iron Age.
Within a few hours large steel
users had been assured that
other suppliers would meet the
lower price" it added.
From Detroit came the great
est consumer pressure because it
is the hub of the automobile in
dustry and because drawing
quality sheet steel is a big ton
mage item in the Detroit market.
The publication said little
change is expected in the steel
business for the next several
weeks although steel sales people
generally expect business in
March to be better than in jan

Arnold Line Denied
Five-Cent Fare Rise,
Gets Smaller Boost

The Interstate Commerce
Commission has approved an in
crease in the cost of tokens on
the Washington, Virginia &
Maryland Coach Co. (Arnold
Line) for trips between Wash
ington and points in Virginia.
The ICC turned down a COM
pany request for what amounted
to a scent increase in zone
rates, however.
Under the new rates tokens
would cost 1924 cents for four
for IS cents as compared to the
present rate of 1928 cents, six
for 81. Cash fares for the zones
would remain at 20. Is, 80, IS
and 40 cents.
Rates for Zones.
The new tokens would pay for
a ride in the first zone. To the
other zones the rates will be
one token plus S cents for zone
two. one token plus 10 cents for
zone three. one token plus Is
cents for zone four and one
token plus 20 cents for zone five.
The ICC said the bus line
could put the new rates into
effect on five days notice to the
ICC and the public.
The line has pending two
other rate cases, one to increase

ginia.
Convinced Of Revenue Needs.
The ICC order commented:
Although we are unconvinced
that respondents showing mer-
its the substantial fare increases
proposed. we are nevertheless
persuaded that it is in need of
additional revenue :"
The ICC estimated the higher
rate would bring the company
$85. 447 above its present esti-
mated annual revenue of
$l,293,614. This amounts to a
SCI per cent increase in revenue.

Sales of stores private brands
of coffee during January were
estimated to be 3 to IS per cent
above the same month last year
in Washington, a survey showed.
National brand coffee sales were
estimated to be from per cent
ahead to IL per cent below Janu-
airy, 1858, in various Washington
stores.
The survey made by Super
market News disclosed that here
some supermarket men reported
some scare buying of both pri-
vate and national label coffee
brands during part of January.
After the price broke the ST.
per-pound mark here, sales Of
private label coffee continued
strong, the survey showed.
But the Nationwide survey
established that coffee sales in
supermarketS have increased.
This probably indicates custom
ers have been buying extra sup
plies in anticipation of higher
prices to come, it said.

Maryland Senate
Gets Liquor Tax Rise
Bill, Passed by House
By Gene Goodwin
Ssur Siof Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS. Feb. 10.-A bill
to raise Maryland's liquor tax by
S cents a fifth was before the
State Senate today. despite eff
forts by Montgomery and Prince
Georges delegates to defeat it in
the House.
The House passed the bill yes
terday, SO to 20, with the almost
solid backing of the Democratic
majority.
Pleas by Washington area dele
gates that the tax increase would
enhance the already troublesome
differential between liquor prices
in the District and Maryland
fell on deaf ears.
Like 1853 Proposal.
The Democrats were more in
terested in another aspect Of the
bill. 1t is almost identical with
a measure passed by the Legisla-
ture. but vetoed by Gov. Nickel
din after the 1853 session.
The Democratic majority has
put off the vote on whether to
override that veto until Monday.
The report in the corridors is
that the Democrats instead will
try to rush through the new
bill. since the Attorney General
has raised doubts as to whether
the vetoed bill. if overridden,
would be effective in the next
fiscal year.
"Sugar" for Everybody.
The liquor tax increase bill is
we'll supported. because it has a
little sugar in it for almost every
body but the Governor. 1t is at
tractive to the counties because
they would get 10 cents of the
total liquor tax of 80 cents a
fifth. The State now keeps all of
the 25-centS-a-fifth levy.
1t is backed by the liquor in
dustry. because it eliminates all
local authority to tax liquor.
That would repeal local liquor
taxes levied by Baltimore City
and Baltimore County.
The Governor does not like the
idea. however, because he said
it would cost the State more
than 100000 a year in revenues.
Property Assessments.
The Montgomery County House
delegation yesterday introduced
a bill aimed at drastically revis-
ing Maryland's property assess
ment system.
The measure would provide
that the State Tax Commission
assess property at full sales
value"-or the price that will
ing seller would get from a willing
buyer"-for the purpose of State
taxation.
The cities and counties, how
ever. would be permitted, under
the bill, to adopt a percentage
Of that State assessment for
their local taxing purposes.
