American Women Know What They Want Says Customer Preference Clinic Head By ELIZABETH TOOMEY - United Press Correspondent " New York (U.R) An impeccably-tailored businessman leaned across his gleaming exe cutive desk and snapped that he was sick and tired of people tell ing American women what they should want. "You are too smart to be led around by the nose," Frederic Rahr declared defiantly. . "I'm fed up with hearing that American women don't know what they want," Rahr con tinued. "I've never said this to anybody before, but it is time somebody spoke up." Rahr is best known as a color consultant. His organization samples the color preferences of women ' so manufacturers will know, for instance, whether more women would like to own pink refrigerators than .ice blue refrigerators.

Donations Received For Two Families Central Point Donations and gifts for two families burned out by the Blackwell hill forest fire Monday were coming in rapidly today. Both the Charles H. Schmelt zer and the Wayne T. England families lost their homes and possessions in the blaze. The Schmeltzers were able to save some clothing, a buffet, and some dishes. The Englands were in Crescent City when the fire broke out, and saved nothing. . The Jewel Bennett family lost their home, but managed to save most of their household goods, with the exception of a bedroom suite. They plan to move to a home which they own at Central Point. ' ... Bennett has asked that dona tions and gifts be given to the Schmeltzer and' England families since they lost everything in the fire. All three families are stay ing temporarily at the T. O. Davis home on Lewis rd. north of Central Point. For the next 10 days, people wishing to donate clothing, fur niture, or household goods may leave gifts at tne Howard build ing on Pine st. in Central Point. Cash donations are being taken at the office of the Central Point American, . Box ,247, '- Central Point.

Before . sandpile or mudpie time, teach the children the trick of scraping their nails oyer a piece of soap to get a layer under the tips that will keep the dirt from staining. At bath time, scrub the nails, gently with a very soft brush dipped in soapy water. of purchases, including clothing. Out of all this Rahr has gained far more than the specific infor mation he set out to discover. "A healthy respect for wom en," he said in ringing, respect ful tones. "If you give her a fair chance to tell you what she wants, a woman will give you a straight answer. "If there is anything wrong with her taste, it is only because it has been tampered with too much by so-called experts who constantly try to reform her. "She will not make a sudden change in the clothes she wears or the decoration of her house because she has learned too much about what is becoming and attractive. Sort Fashions Out 'Fashion changes are a pro vocative thing to women. They notice but then they sort out A woman now reacts to a fashion change only as fast as she can afford to change her wardrobe and only insofar as she finds the fashion will fit her and be becoming. "American women would not accept, the flat-chested look from Paris a year ago. I knew they wouldn't, because we asked them and they told us. Rahr asked suddenly, "which dress in your wardrobe would you like to get rid of first?" We mentioned an especially dismal frock. "Either that is a dress you didn't like right after you got it home from the store, but kept anyway, or it is a dress you have had a long time and are sick to death of it, right," Rahr said. "Then you won't buy another dress that resembles that one, he continued. "We should satisfy women's tastes not try to re make them before they are satis fied." - Governors to Meet In Spokane Tuesday.
