Most of Furniture in U.S.
Obsolete but Taste Changes
By HAL BOYLE
New York W Mohair gives Martin Felnman the shudders.
Likewise horse hair and down. And old-fashioned buffets dec
orated with imitation-carved cupid's heads they make him ner
vous in the solar plexus.
"Seventy-five per cent of the furniture in America is obsolete,'
he said. '
Feinman Is a pioneer design
er and manufacturer of modern
furniture who has helped rev
olutionize the American parlor.
"Before the war only about
20 per cent of new furniture
was modern, he'said. "Today
the taste Is in favor of modern."
As a youth Feinman worked
as a lumberman in the west and
south to learn woods. In 1B25
he visited the exposition of dec
orative arts in Paris and it
changed his life.
He cai te home and told his
father, who had a furniture fac
tory in the old gas house dis
trict here he wanted to try out
some new ideas. He sketched
his designs, and the father took
a look at then, and said:
"You're young, fresh and
crazy."
But he' gave his son a small
space in the factory. When peo
ple like George Gershwin,
Claudctte Colbert and Fred War
ing began to drive up to buy the
new furniture, the old man toss
ed In the towel.
"The business Is yours," he
aid. "ut I still think you'-e
crazy."
In the years since then mod
em furniture has become more
than a novelty for the wealthy.
"Good taste used to come from
the top and filter down to the
masses," said Feinman. "To
day it begins with the middle-
classes hat is the .mass market
the furniture designers aim at,
"America has become a world
cultural center in the last 25
years. A quarter of a century
ago we copied Swedish and
Parisian designers. Now they
re copying us."
Feinman thinks furniture Is
better built today than ever.
"It has to be It takes a ter
rific beating compared to a
generation ago. I remember as
a boy I couldn't go into the par
lor unless guests came. We even
used to keep the furniture

"What 'lull lives people lived
in those days! Now people want
color, comfort and warmth in
home furniture. They use it
more perhaps abuse it more
but they also enjoy it more."
Te sees a steadily growing
trend toward the use of blond
woods, bright cotton fabric cov
erings and foam rubber.
"People want furniture to be
light arid simple insteady of
heavy, dark and ornate. They
don't buy furniture by weight as
they did 50 years ago."
A slim, energetic man of 50,
Feinman has carried the sim
plicity of his furniture designs
into his own way of life. He
doesn't carry gadgets in his pock
ets, doesn't have a knot in his
necktie, and wears extra light
clothing and shoes.

LBeeft Sucpir coond! Ceo one mm
trueQ false
The statement is true. Yet an amazing,
old-fashioned prejudice continues to mislead
housewives year after yean WHY?
Beet supar and cane sugar are exactly the same in
sweetness, purity, whiteness and fineness. Trained
food chemists state that they are chemically identi
cal. No one and we repeat no one can tell them
apart.
But in some parts of the United States an old
fashioned prejudice against beet sugar still exists.
Why the prejudice against best fugart
Thirty or forty years ago, when America was still
learning to make sugar from beets, there was a dif
ference between beet and cane sugar.
That is how the prejudice began. But for more
than a generation now, there has been absolutely no
reason for it. '
There is no finer, tweeter, purer tugar in the world
than that produced by today' beet tugar factories.
What about lly?
Some women still think beet sugar is unsuitable for
making jelly. We refer them to America's foremost
food authority, the U. S. TV-rtraent of Agriculture:
Beet and cane tugar In refined, granulated form
give equally goad results In elly-maklng, canning
ar cooking. The fwe sugars ore ehemi'coV rhe same,
-U.S.D. A.lUport NalvrMI
Know the facta. Tell your friends. Once and for all,
let's end this old-fashioned prejudice against a pure
ail-American product.
And the next time you need sugar, buy beet sugar.
