Unionists' Aid
Asked in Row

Representatives of a paint
ing contractors association
have proposed that its labor
dispute with a painters union
be arbitrated by top officials OF
the AFL-CIO Painters Union.
The proposal was made yes
terday by John B. Kneipple
attorney for the Washington
Union Painting Contractors AS
ISOLATION.
Involved in the dispute are
200 members of four locals of
the AFL-CIO Painters and
Glaciers District Council 81.
The controversy concerns the
width Of the rollers used by
painters and restrictions on the
use Of paint sprayers. The con-
tractors want the width of the
rollers increased from Z to 8
inches.
Lists 4 UniOnists
Mr.. Kneipple said the con-
tractors association Is willing
to submit the dispute to any
three Of the following six per-
sons, four Of whom are off,
GERS Of the AFL-CIO Painters
Union:
L. A. Rafferty,, international
president; James j. Knoud,

Holcombe, both general repre-
sentatives Of the union: Rob-
ert A. Meyer. chairman of the
Labor Policy Committee of the
Washington Construction Con-
tractors Council, and Ed Tor
renee, assistant to the presi-
dent Of the Painting and Deco
Gators Association Of America.
Express Confidence
Said Mr.. Kneipple:
I'VE feel so strongly that our
case is correct that we are quite
willing to submit 1t to the
International officials Of the
Painters Union. We feel that
these international officers will
recognize that these restrictions
on rollers and sprays must be
modified If their union is to
meet the competition from nom
union painters"
Robert L. Moran, secretary
treasurer Of the Painters Union,
District Council 81, said the
union will reply to Mr.. Kneip-
pies proposal tomorrow.
The arbitration offer was
made at a meeting of repre-
sentatives of the contractors
and the union with James A.
Holden. a Federal mediator.

Lime in Kettle
How can I remove a lime
deposit from a kettle?" Mrs.
G. P. asks.
AnsWer-Mix one-third vim
egar and two-thirds water.
Pour this into the kettle
to a depth of one inch. Boil
for a few minutes, then set
aside until the lime is dis
solved.

T. d. - Fill a glass with
water from your pump and

small amount Of red particles
will appear in the bottom OF
the glass.

prefer to pay the plumber
rather than to repair the
leaky faucet themselves.
Mrs. d. M.-When 1t comes
to removing paint from plas-

impossible. Try softening it

'Customizing' Your Tile
BY HERMAN BAUM
Contributing Writer

A couple Of years ago, one
individual with apparently
nothing more important to
do, determined that in that
one year alone, the do-it-
yourself ira de purchased
enough asphalt tile to cover
the entire State of Oregon.
This would seem to indicate
that If you have not been en-
gagged in this delightful hob
by then you are a member
of the insignificant minority.
With all this background
experience, most novice floor
inStallers have reached
the point where they are
ready to try their skill on
more advanced projects. We
have in mind the use of at
tractive inlayS to produce a
Truly custom floor.
Depending upon the area.
you might choose a letter or
monogram for a foyer; a
knife and fork silhouette or
some other design suggestive
Of food. for the kitchen: ami
mails or nursery rhyme char
acters for the children's
room. This project is easily
accomplished when a new
floor is being put down and
only slightly more involved
for an old floor.
If you can find a picture
OF the design you wish to use,
1t saves the effort of devel-
oping one. Most designs
should be centered over four
9-lnch tiles. The picture
should then be between 10
and IA inches square. On
the picture itself or on a sep
arate transparent overlay,
rule squares in each direction
so that the number of squares
equals the desired dimension
In inches of the design. On
another piece of paper, rule
one-inch squares equal in
number to the number of
squares over the design. 1t
is now easy to transfer the
design to the ruled paper.
Tronsfer to PIywood
The next operation is to
glue this paper to a piece of
Inch plywood. Next, care
fully cut out the plywood,
using jigsaw or coping saw.
File and sandpaper the edges
of the plywood to smooth
lines.
For a new floor, place four
tiles Of contrasting color on
the area to be decorated at
the same time the floor is
being laid. For an older floor,
remove the four tiles, soften
the mastic wall with heat
and drop the new tiles into
place. If the mastic has dried
so hard that heat does not
soften it, Scrape it out and
use fresh maStic.

value is too small to fuss
about.

fastened with tacks. A line
is Scribed around it with a
sharp instrument such as an
ice pick and then the pattern
removed. Asphalt tile must be
heated to be cut. Other types
can be cut with a lineoleum
knife without heating. Lift
out the center.
The one or more tiles from
which the design is to be cut
are fastened to a board, driv-
ing tackS outside the area
that forms the pattern. Re-
member that asphalt tiles
must be kept heated. Place
the pattern over the tiles,
holding it firmly in place
and scribe around it as be-
fore.
On a new floor, no fresh
maStic is required. Place the
inlay in position and tap it
firmly in place with a board
and hammer. On old floors,
if the mastic cannot be
Softened with heat, use fresh
material, being sure to imme-
diately wipe up any that may
be squeezed out on the floor.
Removed Of Wall Covering
when I bought my home
the kitchen wall was covered
with oilcloth wall covering.
1t has ripples, waves and
cracks all over it, so l want
to remove it and paint the
wall. What is the best way
to remove this covering?"
r. 2. asks.
Answer.-If you have "dry
walls" that were not first
waterproofed, the job is hope
less. On plaster walls, pull
loose one corner of the cloth
and use a sponge and warm
water to soften the glue be-
meath 1t so that you can grad
ually pull the cloth away. 1t
is a tedious job and you may
do some damage to the plas-
ter. but this cannot be pre-
vented. Allow the plaster to
dry thoroughly before
painting.
Stuck With Stueeo
"The home recently pur-
chased. was built around
1925. I had the stucco exte-
rior sandblasted and found
many large cracks beneath
the palnC Chat the former
owner had stuffed full Of
caulking material and now
I am stuck with it. What
should I do about this?"
c. v. K. wants to know.
AnSwer-When your house
was built, magnesite stucco
was used. This material con-
tanned salt which soon rusted
the metal lath so the stucco
bulged and cracked. I sug-
geSt that you remove enough

Almanac Forecasts
Uncannily Correct

DUBLIN, NH, Up = The Old
Farmers Almanac has appeared
in its 169th edition, predicting that
1861 will be "On the whole, a
good year for almost any enter
prise" Some of its forecasts in
the past have been uncannily ac-
curate.
More than a million copies are
spreading across the nation from
a tidy, red, two-story building
here, and the desk of editor Robb
Sagendorph, a tall, lean Yankee.
The formal is Identical with
18th century almanacs, and most
of the material is folksy, but that
doesn't make Sagendorph a char
acter.
He's graduate of Harvard
College Q922), town moderator of
Dublin, editor and publisher of
Yankee Magazine circulation
100000, and serious student of
almanacs. He's SO.
His name doesn't appear in the
Old Farmers because of tradi-
ton. In 1866 two Almanac pub
fishers predicted that London
would burn that year. On Sept.
2, it did burn disastrously.
The two Almanac publishers
were charped with having been
incendiaries and both were
hanged.
Sagendorph himself is troubled
by the fact that his 1850 Almanac
predicted Hurricane Donna with
startling exactitude: Forgive,
please, while rainy gales teare, y

All Bets Off In Nevada
Due to Forgotten 1919 Law

CARSON CITY, New, R-News
of forgotten state law against
election bets has thrown Nevada
bookmakers into confusion-and
stopped Wagers on the presiden-
tial race.
The biggest question: What to
do with all the money already
bet on Democrat John F. Ken
needy and Republican Richard M.
Nixon.
Bookies had been doing thriv-
ing business on the race for Pre-
sident.
But while Nevada has legalized
just about all forms of gambling,
a 1919 law bans any type of bet
on any election.
II quit" was the response of
a Reno odds-maker. He promptly
pulled down all signs quoting
election odds.
In Las Vegas, all eight race
bookies erased their odds before
a news story about the forgotten
law hit the streets.
Bookies disagreed on what to
do with the bets they hold.
"We're going to pay the win
ners and collect from the losers"
one said "That's the only way
to do it."
No one seemed to know how
much money was involved.
AS the bookies closed election
operations, the odds were still
to for Kennedy and 6 to for
Nixon

Suez Blockade

NEW YORK (JTA)-The United
Arab Republic has informed DR..
Ralph j. Bunche, United Nations
undersecretary for special political
affairs, that it would continue to
deny passage through the Suez
Canal for ships and cargoes origi-
mating in Israel, The New York
Times reported from Cairo.
DR.. Bunche visited Cairo to dis
cuss with the government of the
UAR it's continued Suez Canal
blockade against Israel on behalf
of Secretary General Dag HAM
marskjold. His visit had been an
nounced a month ago, but when he
arrived, the Times said, he could
see only a friend of President
Canal Abdel Nasser, DR.. Murad
Ghaleb. Co. Nasser and the For
eign Minister of the UAR were at
Aswan, participating in a celebra-
ton for the start of work on the
new high dam there.
The refusal to alter the govern
ment'S position on the anti-Israel
blockade was relayed to DR..
Bunche in a 40-minute conference
with DR.. Ghaleb, according to the
Times.

involves the boiling of sea water
then cooling the steam for the pro-
duction of sweet water. DR..
Zarchin's process calls for extrac-
ton of the salt from sea waters by
freezing
DIR. ZARCHIN HAD been given
facilities for carrying out his re-
searches into the freezing meth
DDS at the Leningrad Psychological
Institute.
While working at the institute,
DIR. Zarchin, along with oher sci
entists, was given new orders. He
was to cease his desalination re-
searches and concentrate on meth
ods for the extraction of magnesi-
um from compounds found in ma
ture.
To help the magnesium research
es he was furnished with the
world geological map. In bright
red, he found circled-among the
potential magnesium deposits-the
Dead Sea. Now he was certain
that the Dead Sea would provide
the locale for his deSalination work.
HE CONTINUED working in the
Leningrad Institute until the end
of World War II. Then, under Stall
ms program of anti-Semetic perse-
cutions, he was jailed. After two
years in prison he was able to go
to Poland, thence to Germany, and
finally, in late 1947, he reached
Palestine as an ''illegal" imni-.
grant.
Then started DR.. Zarchin's Sec
ond phase. In cheap hotel room,
where he lived with his wife, at
Tel Aviv, he had to reconstruct
from memory the scientific notes
he had been forced to leave in Len
ingrad when he was arrested. Once
he had the notes down in writing
again, he started marrying Jewish
scientific and political leaders, beg
ging for backing. He had become
widely known - but considered a
nuisance"
1T TOOK HIM almost seven
years-until 1955-to obtain an ap-
Dointment with Prime Minister
David Ben-Gurion. When he
reach Ben-Gurion office, he did
not talk Immediately about his sci
entific theories. InStead-know,ng
that the Israel Prime Minister was
a great Hebrew Scholar-he talked
about the Bible and the Talmud.
Ben -Gurion was impressed by the
pious, 60-year-old Orthodox Jew
who-even as Ben-Gurion himself
saw the best proof of IsraePs poten-
tial scientific and economic expan-
sion in ancient Hebrew lore. The
two got on well. Ben-Gurion prom
ised to look into the Zarchin
desalination method.
Soon, however, Ben-Gurion re-
tired-as it turned out, temporarily
from the prime ministry. DR..
Zarchin was "out in the cold'
again. But when Ben-Gurion re-
turned to head the Israel Govern
ment shortly before the start of the
1856 Sinai campaign, he remem-
bered his promise to the talmudic
scientist.
The Ministry of Development
now listened to DR.. Zarchin. He
was engaged as special consult
ant to the government, given a
grant of about $8S, 900 for the con-
struction of a small pilot-plant in
which he could start testing his
theories.
DIR. ZARCHIN'S problem was
