CIVIL DEFENSE DISASTER
WORK LIKENED TO
INSURANCE

American communities for the
first time have a comprehensive
insurance policy against natural
disasters in the Federal Civil De-
fense Administrators disaster re-
lief program.
This view of FCDA Adnlinistra-
tor Val Peterson stems from his
experience in coordinating relief
in IA major natural disasters since
1858.
These disasters include Al
drought situations, II floods, Z
tornadoes, 9 hurricanes, earth
quakes, forest fire, and a flood
and erosion condition.
Prior to the relief programs of
the thirtieS, there was no central
coordination of relief. The Fed
eral government haphazardly aided
states and cities after a disaster,
usually with funds Congress ap-
propriated specifically to meet
that one calamity. Duplication of

Floor Finishes

There are two classes of wood
floor fininshes-the film-forming
type, and the penetrating wood
seals. -
Film-forming finishes include
paint, varnish, and shellac, explains

agement specialist at the Univer-
Sity of Arizona. From two to three

wood floors. The floors will wear
well, and usually show less scratch

a film-forming finish. Seals give
a soft sheen to your floor. And,
you can patch this type Of floor
finish without leaving a spot. For

Arlene Riddett, IS, of Yonkers,

Peoples Encyclopedia Yearbook for
her proficiency in marbles. The
yearbook reports that Miss Riddett
won the girls championship in

tournament at Ashbury Park, N.

ing seal finish regularly.
Those finishes that are film
forming actually make hard film
over the wood floor. The film pro-
tects the wood, but will show
scratches. This type of finish wears
off and must be renewed, so clean
and renew it before the finish gets
thin in spots and wears through.
But, remember that patching on
this finish may show. If you have
renewed the film-finish several
times, it may be necessary to take
off all the finish and refinish the
bare wood when it begins to darken
and look dull.
Either of the two wood floon
finishes will give you good service
if you take care of it. Just follow
directions carefully when applying
the finish, and take care of the
finish after you put it on the floor.
