large and more useful bathroom
storage. new plastic wainscoting
materials, and luminous ceiling
lighting, particularly for interior
bathrooms.
In the research laboratory
stage of development is the wall
hung water closet which will
make a major contribution to
ease of cleaning bathrooms.
Meanwhile there is an increase
in the number of houses with
Ia or 2 baths, with at least q
half-bath frequently located on
the work area floor level.
Now Air Conditioning
Central-system residential air
conditioning is becoming more
popular and is almost a must"
in many southerly areas. This
is bringing about some design
changes. Fol example, east or
west window walls are either
shaded from direct sun by
paintings. awnings. oyerhangs,
or they are reduced in size or
eliminated.
Houses are being oriented to
keep heat gain to a minimum

floor supports. thereby simpli-
flying cleaning operations.
GIuing Revived
In another area or construc-
ton. there has been a revival of
the ancient practice Of gluing
wood members. The use Of glued
wood members increases signi-
ficantly the efficiency Of stIuc-
tural parts. For example, today
it is possible to build economi-
cally a glue-nailed roof truss
with a low pitch that will span
80 feet.
The builder can thus increase
the depth of the house from
front to back by 4 to 6 feet, add
ing valuable space without IN
creasing the width Of the house.
This. of course. is very i'm
portant in view of the sharply
rising cost Of land--lot width
being directly related to develop
ment costs for streets and utili-
ties.
Gluing is also contributing to
the development Of many new
sandwich-type wall panels COM
bining interior finish. insulation,
exterior finish with structural
properties. Obviously this is the
first step in the development Of
a homogeneous wall material.
Bathrooms are coming in for
their share Of new developments
-compartmented bathrooms for

Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-09-08

and the desire for more living
space at the most economical
price may well lead to a re-
vival of interest in two-story
dwellings in many parts Of the
country.
In advance Of this prospect,
there already has been large
increase in the construction of
split-level houses for space rea-
sons. The trend towards the
split-level has been aided by the
increasing shortage Of relatively
level land which has necessitated
the construction of houses on
rolling terrain.
There also are signs that the
two-bedroom houses. which in
recent years has taken q back
seat to three and four bedroom

Likewise, preassembled closet
storage walls are now widely
used with this type OF roof con-
struction. Component exterior
wall panels 4'x8 in size are also
coming into use along with drop
in, preassemnled i1cor panels.
One of the latest features of
the nonload- bearing interior
wall panel system is a spine con-
hector that enables brackets to
be located in almost any vertical
position. This provides excellent
opportunities for org, ization of
closet storage and such things
as wall shelves and tables.
In the not-top distant future,
it is not unreasonable to expect
brackets such as these to sup

is particularly suitable for newly
married couples and, as children
born in the early l940's mature
and form new family units, it is
expected that the demand for
these units will increase with
out, however. cutting down on
the demand for three and four
bedroom houses.

the use of preassemhled COM

substituting some factory-or

infinite patience and learn to control their tenpers. But even
they have a Threshold Of endurance.
WHEN the dismissal Of three teachers 0dnder public pres
sure changed to two) accentuated once more the weaknesses
Of the educational system Tor lack of SYSTEM In St Croix,
almost every teacher could cite an instance when ne had been
UNFAIRLY treated. One had been persuaded to take 9 job ~ the
grammar school at the first opportunity, only to see this pro-
mise broken again and again. Others had been promised jobs
at. the first vacancy only to be kept waiting while less quail
fled personnel came and went. Some had their appointments
held up if they complained or protested.
NOW the individual directly responsible for this, what
ever her title may be, Is Mrs. Pearl Byrd Larsen, who has
made it only too clear in the past that she takes orders from
&C Frederick Dixon without offering q word IN defense OF
the ST. Croix teachers. Senator Lucinda Millin ~telephoned
Luz James, President Of the Teachers Association, in the
midst Of the present educational crisis to tell him, that IS 9

Although the United Jewish Welfare Fund and Uni
ted Jewish Appeal Special Fund drive fell short OF
its goals there should be no doubt that the community
owes it's applause to the dozens of volunteer work
ers who campagned so hard for its success.
1t would certainly be ridiculous situation for the
individuals who did not give enough to place the
blame on the persons who labored to get their con-
tributions.
There is little enough glory for the volunteer who
gives up time from business and recreation to try to
achieve the goals of charity campaign For the most
part the only gain for the worker the inward glow
of having done his best,
The satisfaction attained from such effort, however,
is greatest when the effort is crowned with success
volunteer workers are met with apathy, it becomes
difficult for them to ward off whats the use' at
titude.
And because of this-and also because of the vital
need for funds obtained in the recent campaignt
urgent that lessons be learned from mistakes made
The salient points revealed in the evaluation COM
mittees breakdown of contribution sources and at
tainments of other drives in Phoenix these:
l. The masses are more responsive to the UJWF ap-
peal than hitherto given credit for and they rather
than the wealthy, should become the primary target
of campaign activity.
g Stressing the needs of national and local agencies
does not elicit driving to contribute but the
emotional appeal of stole, beeaguered Israel does
Results demand shift in emphasis.

The World Over

message was sent by Haifa's Brit
ish police to their headquarters
every effort is being made by
the Jews to persuade the Arab
populace to stay and carry on with
their normal lives, to get their
shops and businesses open, and to
be assured that their lives and in
tereSt will be safe"
Yet practically all the Arabs
left. Why?
1.-The removal OF the Arab in
habitantS from the town." reported
the Arab National Committee of
Haifa in 1850, was voluntary and
was carried out at our request"
The same was true all over Is
rael. Here is the statement of
Emil el-Gouri, secretry of the
Arab Higher Committee in 1913:
The fact that there are these
refugees is the direct consequence
of the Arab states opposing parti-
ton and the Jewish State. The
Arab states agreed upon this pol
icy unanimously and they must
share in the solution of this prob
lem.''
Today their responsibility is
greater than ever, for they have
refused all offers of help in re-
settling the refugees. Years ago
the UN earmarked funds for re-
settlement projects, from which
the Arab states could benefit i'm
measurably. Iraq and Syria, for
example, desperately need new
immigrants to develop their land,
4 and funds from nations all over
J the world, including Israel, would
) help to make them productive.
All that is lacking to allow the
self-displaced another chance at
life is the cooperation of the Arab
leaders. And this they refuse, for
they have found the plight of the
!, refugees too good a propaganda
| device to give up.
The world should know, how
| ever. that in truth they and they
| alone hold the key to the solution
of the Arab refugee problem.
