Model of Electric Age Shown
by Westinghouse Even
Garage Doors Open by
Turning On Car Radio
MANSFIELD. O. (UP) A model
"home of the future," more complete
ly electrified than ever before has
been attempted, has been opened here
for public l rupee t Ion.
It represents what engineers of 30
different departments of the Wes
tinghouse Electric and Manufactur
ing company conceive will be avail
able to the average householder five
or ten years hence.
If all the switches are turned on
at once It represents electrical capa
city equal to 864 servants at work, ssy
the engineers. The house consume?
30 times more electrical energy than
the average home of today, but Its de
signers point out that already there
Is an over-production of power In the
United States, and when the gigantic
government projects now under way
are completed the availability of low-
cost power In homes should be prac
tically limitless.
Air Conditioned
The house is completely "air con
ditioned." That U, warm air in the
winter and cool air In the summer Is
circulated through the house from a
"weather room" In the basement.
The lighting Is all . "shadowless.
Sunken panel lights around the win
dows will give the effect of daylight
streaming in at any hour.
This modest home is equipped with
seven radio sets. One of them Is an
all-wave affair. Another Is Installed
in the family automobile, and It worles
one of the most marvelous automatic
contraptions of all.
Easy for Mother
Mother, driving home from bridge
or tea in tho family car doesn't have
to get out and open cumbersome gar
age doors. As she approaches, she
simply turns on her radio. The garage
doors open, as though by unseen
hands. She drives In. shuts off the ra
dio, the garage doors close automatic
ally. .
' The kitchen Is one of tho
"straight-line production" affairs. The
electric range heats up In a Jiffy. The
broiler broils a steak or chops on both
sides at once. Food mixers, egg beat
ers and gadgets of that sort are per
manently installed, and all operate
merely by turning switches. The dish
washer not only washes the dishes but
rinses and dries them..
Ultro-violet rays and Infra-red rays
are provided In bedrooms and bath
rooms. Garbage and waste paper Is
automatically dumped Into outdoor
receptacles. There are no fires to burn
out, and the elocttio mater is out
doors. . 'f -. 'l . Tv

LAD IN DISGUISE
It all e tar ted in fun, but the sit
uation lost Us ,humor when police
men arrived on the scene.
"Crazy women at large on Bennett
street" the call came In to Officer
Joe Cave last night. He rushed to
the street named and heard weird
stories of a woman going from place
to place, rapping on windows and
throwing fits In dooryards. But he
couldn't find the woman.
Then the story unwound. He stop
ped at the T.hurman home and Mrs.
Thurman stated that her 13-year old
son, dressed up Jn her clothes and
started out to play a few pranks ori
his schoolmates. They failed to rec
ognize him and the whole neighbor
hood became alnrmed. Young Thur
man refused to appear, In or out of
his mother's clothes, when the police
uniform showed up. -
CITY ORDINANCES
L
DETAILS ARE TOLD
WASHINGTON, March 31 . P)
Chester C. Davis, farm administrator,
today announced details of the pro
posed production control program for
dairy farmers.
The chief features Include: Reduc
tion by Individual farmers of fifteen
per cent of their milk and butter fat
production from their 1033-1033 total
and appropriation of W.OOO.OOO for re
lief distribution of surplus milk to
underfed children in cities.
Other provisions were transfer of
healthy cows from surplus areas to
farm families In deficit areas, and use
of a $5,000,000 fund for the eradica
tion of tubercular and bang-diseased
cattle.
The program was estimated to cost
between 105,000,000 and $300,000,000
depending on adoption of pending
legislation In congress.
A processing tax at one cent per
pound on butter fat and advancing to
five cents per pound was proposed to
flnanca the program.
Farmers would be paid benefit pay
ments at the rate of about 40 cents
for each pound of butter fat which
they reduced below their 1039-1033
production. Thla la equivalent to
about 11.50 per hundred pounds of
fluid milk.

The thorough-bred two-year-old
Hereford steers purchased by the
Groceteria Super-Food markets espec
ially for the Easter holidays recently
placed In the Groceteria's refrigera
tion room for a special aging pro
cess, are reported to be In excellent
condition.
Selected from' the herd of more
than 000 steers on the Brophy ranch,
those brought to Medford for Groce
teria customers are of uniform weight
and quality. They have been grain
fed since the last of January In prepa
ration for the Easter market..
According to W. A. Gates, only one
other market In the United States
Is featuring this type of service, to
his knowledge. This market, located
In Chicago, prepares Christmas meats
In this manner.
The aging process during which the
meat Is kept In uniform low temfera
Uire adds considerably to tha rich
flavor which should be very fine by
Easter, Mr. Gates said.

Turning to cancellation of the con

that "any contract or agreement be

been and always will be vitiated by
fraud."
Facts Studied
He said he had "calmly and dispas

in the air mall case and to support
his argument that fraud was evident
he reviewed much of the testimony

To fill the record

demand. Chevrolets
are being produced
at a record-breaking

units a day!
CHEVROLET factories are breaking
records, trying to give America all the
cars it wants. 4000 units a day are rolling off
the assembly lines. February output was
twice that of January. March output, accord
big to present indications, will be three times
that of January. More Chevrolets are now
being produced than any other make of auto
mobile in the world. And today, Chevrolet
is happy to report that all its dealers will soon
be in a position to make immediate deliveries.
When you consider how short a time the new
Chevrolet has been in productiou when you
consider, also, that the 1934 car is not last
year's model improved, but a basically new
automobile, with sweeping changes in design
this production record becomes somewhat
of an accomplishment. But, a still greater ac
eomplishment, in our opinion, is the uvy that
these cars have all been produced!
Despite continued nationwide pressure for
more and more volume, every car that has
left the factorit s has been built and tested to
meet Chevrolet's highest standards of care,
precision and quality. The result: When you
place your order for a new Chevrolet, you'll
not only get a big, rugged "Knee-Action" car
you're also assured of getting a typical
Chevrolet car in economy, dependability and
long life.
