The New FuTS Go
To Your Head

Luxury loves company. Notlce
the way your most fabulous fur
wrap or coat reacts to your wearing
an equally fabulous Fur hat.
Whether you match your furs or
use the high-fashion trick Of team
ing one luxury fur with another,
opulence is certainly the keynote
this coming season.
Fur will go to the heads of many
women this year in high toque
shapes, in giant-sized berets. large
brimmed picture hats, rounded bon
nets and tall chechia shapes.
All members of the animal king
dom take top billing this fall and
winter of 1856. Choose your fur
hat in leopard. the beige-to-brown
minks, white mink, ermine. broad
tail in all kinds of high fashion
colorings. sable and. for the ulti-
mate, perhaps one in chinchilla.
In all instances fur has been deity
draped by the milliners as though
it were a length Of swirling silk.

area. A Board Of Trade study in
January found there were about
10000 apartment units in the
area in buildings that house
three or more families.
1t Is hard to determine
whether the FILA figures are
indicative for the entire area
because different kinds of apart
ments show different vacancy
figures. A heavy majority of
the FILA survey figures cover
walk-up apartment buildings,
many Of which, being built since
the war, are fairly far from the
center Of the city.
Charles j. Bauer, executive
director of the Building Owners
and Managers Association of
metropolitan Washington. said
a survey by his organization on
March 30-almost the same date
as the FILA survey-in older
elevator buildings found the
following vacancy figures: in
1856, 10 vacancy per hundred;
in 1855. 81 vacancies and in
1854. IL vacancies.
Most Vacancies in 1858
All Of these figures are smaller
than the corresponding year
FILA figures. In most cases the
older elevator apartment build

lings are closer to the center of
the city.
However. the FILA figures and
the BONA figures are somewhat
parallel. In both surveys the
lowest year was 1856 and the
highest vacancy rate was in 1866.
The FILA report also breaks
down vacancy figures by size of
apartment units and geograph-
ical location.
By apartment size, the agency
found that three bedroom apart
ments seem to be better-f filled
than any other type with only
1928 vacancies per hundred. Eff
ficiencies (the FILA Classics
them "zero-bedroom") did next
best with LII vacancies per
hundred.
One Bedroom Units Easiest to Get
Easiest to get for the pro-
spective renter would appear to
Ibe one-bedroom units which
had 3.37 vacancies. Two-bed-
rooms are next easiest to get
with 2.48 vacancies per hundred,
This may be, an FILA spokes-
man observed, because more
than flve-sixths of the apart
ments in the report are of the
one and two bedroom type.
Geographically, the apart
ments of Montgomery County
seem to be best filled with a
vacancy rate of only 1.57. Alex

Many Negro farmers turnout
the south are making giant
strides in adopting improved az
ricultural practices which are re-
sulting in higher incomes and
better living. Some with small
units either have established off
farm enterprises, or have found
sideline jobs in town.
However. numbers of small
owners. tenant and sharecroppers
are quitting the farm and moving
to town; others are holding on
for the present with the hope
that they may be able to buy
enuff land for family-sized
