IT pulled one Air Force man

was torn off at the hip. He kept
begging for help, but there
wasn't anything I could do to
stop the bleeding. He died.

Maximum Condensation
Condensation is at a maxi
mum in a new home. When
your home was built, gallons
of water went into materials
such as concrete, plaster,
tile work and some types of
paint. This water is still
lodged within the walls es-
pecially basement walls, and
its gradual evaporation con-
tributes to the moisture in
the air.
You should provide ventila-
ton whenever the weather
permits. But do not try too
hard to speed up the normal
drying-out process.

ment walls, you will not be
worried if the basement sud-
denly becomes damp.
Masonry basement walls
are not waterproof in them
selves. Where conditions war
rant it, your builder has
damp-proofed the under
ground portions of your foun-
dations to prevent the en-
trance of water from the
surrounding ground. This in
wolves a process of applying
a coat of cement dashing to
the underground portions of
the outside foundation walls.
Domp Walls
A new homeowner, noticing
damp basement walls, often
concludes that water is COM
ing through the walls from
the outside. This rarely is the
case. Nearly always, damp
ness in a basement is the re-
suit of condensation of warm
moist air on the compare
lively cool surfaces of the
basement. Constant use of
laundry equipment adds to
the moisture content.
You can easily determine if
the dampneSs is due to simple
condensation. If cold water
pipes sweat" it is condenSa-
ton. For an easy test, place

1t is well to understand,
too, that the foundation or

base of the wall is in the
ground. and therefore, has a
fairly constant temperature.
