FOR EASIER DISHWASH-

> HOW BIG is A ROOM
From an architects point OF
view, a room has measurements
In feet and inches. BY compar-
ing these, you can easily tell that
one room is larger or smaller
than another.
But to a decorator. a room is
Just as big as it looks. And
there are a number Of relatively
inexpensive ways to make nearly
any small room look much larger.
One of these ways is to use
area or accent rugs. which have
come back into fashion in recent
years. It is surprising how proper
use of these rugs can make a
living-dining area seem to ex-
pand into two or three separate
living areas.
Area or accent rugs may be
oblong. square. oval. round or
free form but, to be right, they
must be large enough to hold a
furniture grouping together,
One rug can designate the din
ing area, another the living area
and a third might be used to
set of an entryway.
A brightly colored and sharply
designed rug may provide the
focal interest in the room, or a
plain-colored rug can simply be

how much improvement area

APARTMENT HOBBIES -
Apartment hobbies must either

Weaving, we have discovered,

For one thing, hand looms
come in virtually any size and
shape. Some looms are as small
las 2 inches square. Others are
round or oblong. And you can

But the real fun is in making
small bags, place mats. belts.

you can progress from simple

like twill or brocade, the hobby
never loses its fascination.
Some friends not too long ago
became so interested in the many

Reds Finding Smiles Pay Off

They point to the fact that the
hope of the West lies in its keep

dorses this belief by its deter

communists have dealt a strong
blow at Western strength, they
add, by announcing that Russia
would cut the Red forces by
$40, 900 men. This has led to
tendency in virtually all West
European countries to relax mil

WASHINGT0N-Grave warn
ings have been sounded here that
the Soviet Russian smiles are
"phony," and that the Kremlin
has not relaxed one bit its pro-
gram for world domination.
In fact, some students of in
ternational affairs are saying
flstly that Krushchev and Co,
are accomplishing more with
smiles and pfeasantries than
Stain ever accomplished by
strong arm tactics. The goal in
each case, they add, is the same.
However, Stains use of brute
force was not altogether lost, 1T

and intimidated the rest of the
world that the still free nations
show unreasonable enthusiasm
in embracing and cultivating ey-
cry little show of humanity on

independent of the traditlOnally
lslamic countries. This independ-
enee explains in part Ataturk's
success in abolishing the sultan
ate and the Ottoman caliphate,
and in the introduction of secular
education in the early twenties.
Towards 1925 the Turkish gov
ernment placed the more fanat-
ical sectS within Islam out OF
bounds, abolished the fez, and in
general converted the Turkish
people into a fairly recognizable
facsimile of Europe. In 1923
Islam was no longer the state
religion and this status has not
changed down to the present
time. Arabic and Persian were
abolished as compulsory subjects
in the schools and, finally in the
amended constitution of. 1887
liacized, revolutionary state was
set us as the permanent pattern
of Turkish life,
But the signs have changed
considerably since the firm hand
of Ataturk was removed. In
1945, for the first time ], ques-
tions of religion we're raised in
the national parliament, Trans
lations of Islamie classics became
more common thing and even
an Islamic encyclopedia has
been issued. More and more mos
ques have been built, most of
them through private initiative,
and some IS schools for the train
ing of preachers for these mos
ques have been instituted. Vol
untary religious instruction in
the schools has come back and
alth 1ugh limited TO children
whose parents demand it form
ally, there is no doubt that the
Mass of the Turks are eaged to
have such instruction provided.
1t is plain that the government
does not wish TO run counter to
what is the evident will of the
mass of people, who are pro-
foundly welded 10 their Islamlc
traditions.
