PLANS OF MODEL
Bedrooms In th home are more
used than tho kitchen, at least as far
oa the housewife la concerned. A fed
eral housing loan could not be put
to a better use than the modernisa
tion of the kitchen making It a
place whew the housewife will enjoy
her work, surrounded by labor-saving
conveniences, and a colorful, cheery
atmosphere. To complete the mod
ern kitchen, thers aliould be ample
built-in cabinets and bins; shiny pots
and pans and plenty of uttcful house

A -booklet showing comprehensive
plans for the "New American" home
copied from those submitted by 2040
architects in a recent contest has
been published by the General Elec
tric company. These interesting
drawings may be Inspected at O.
D. Bean Incorporated on East Main
street, according to an announce
ment today by C. D. Bean,
Many of these plans for Ideal
American home are being used by
leading magazines to give families
Ideas for building new houses and
for remodeling old structures. There
are " livable models for every need
ranging from small houses for mod
erate sized families and large, pre
tentious buildings for people of ex
tensive Incomes.
The home building program In
eluded In General Electrtc's graphic
exposition explains- the plan to the
public utility companies, contractors,
builders, banks and all cooperating
agencies. The minimum objective or
General Electric is to 'have one
house built for every 100,000 of pop
ulation and they expect that upward
of 3,000 will be built. They will be
demonstration houses only and 6,000
has been set as the maximum limit.
The simultaneous opening of these
houses all over the country will
focus the attention of the public
on all that Is new and best in
homes. The extent to which modern
living has become electrical living
will bo particularly apparent. .
Radicalism Seen
As Health Factor
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 14. (UP)
The "red menace" oficially became a
disease tonight, when Dr. Walter M.
Dickie, state health chief, announced
health officers would have to study
community health problems from the
point of view of "Increasing trends
of radicalism, because these factors,
heretofore considered unimportant,
have become of prime importance in
maintenance of community health."
signs are unmistakable, the conclu
sions having been listed by the Gen
eral Electrlo company:
The "New American" style house
Is built from the Inside out: It Is
designed for convenience of space-use
In contrast to conventional designing;
It provides for the co-ordination ol
Indoor and outdoor living with ter
races, porches, decks and roof space
directly available from several rooms;
It is simple In design with cornices
and traditional mouldings eliminat
ed; the "New American home empha
sizes practical, livable relation of
rooms to each other; there Is a tend
ency to combine the dining room
with the living room; windows arc
larger and placed where they do the
most good; In many cases the now
type home Is air conditioned; It has
adequate wiring and lighting.

When building a house why not or fitting out an office? "Modern
be as sensible as in choosing a carl architecture can be beautiful and
simple without being garish.
I Much of the expense In building
I homes to the old conventional pat
terns comes from the construction of
Irregular walla, laying of unnecessary
roofs, and tack log-on of gables and
peaked roofs, which" results also In a
large area of dead space.
The efficiency of a modern home
can be achieved without severity of
lines, as is shown In this home, the
exterior of which is relieved by a
slight wall recession to the left of
the entrance bay and the terra cot
ta tile decoration1 in the Spanish
manner. 1
The walls are of buff-toned on
rete, which can be cast In wooden
forms, with the tile of warm colors
and conservative modernistic pat
terns. The house Is rectangular, permit
ting a logical and simple arrange
ment of rooms. The entrance hall
serves also as a stair hall with a
small lavatory on the first landing.
The living room is to the left of the
entrance hall with a fireplace at the
far end giving depth and warmness
to the room. The dining room and
kitchen at the rear of the first floor
are connected with a small butler's
pantry.
Four bedrooms and a bathroom
separate from all occupy the second
floor.
The cost of building this residence
would vary from $8,000 In the south
and west to about $10,999 in New
England and the middle Atlantic sea
board states.

GROWTHON COAST
Medford citizens and those of other
Pacific coast states are exchanging
a steadily Increasing amount of air
mall letters, with approximately 11,
200,700 such missive bavin bees
flown over the coastwise airway In
the last six months, it was reported
today by 1. O. Devaney, field man
ager of United Air Lines here.
Devaney declared that still further
Increases are expected as a result of
United' faster airmail - passenger
schedules which became effective Oc
tober 1, with introduction of 1935
type twin-engined Boeing transports
on the company's Van couver-Med ford
San Diego route. These planes rt
19 miles an hour faster than trans
ports previously used on the airway.
On the entire nationwide network
of United Air Lines, planes are carry
ing an average of 458.000 pieces of
mail daily, a record high, with 1398
tons of mail having been flown dur
ing the past six months for a gain of
approximately 40 per cent over the ,
volume of 1934. according to advices
received here. Approximately 43 per
cent of tne nation's airmail is being
carried by United.
