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.
Customer Clinics
But he also conducts some
thing called customer preference
clinics in stores across the na
tion, and in these gathers the
likes and dislikes of some 100,
000 women annually on all kinds

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.
Due to confusion which fol
lowed the fire, names of the
families were listed incorrectly
in first reports.
. Pre-play care can keep chil
dren's hands from getting rough
and grimy. 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."
