One-Bed room Homes Said Popular By MARGUERITE DAVIS United Press International Chicago- (UPD -The demand for new horns is so widespread here that a builder offered one-bedroom homes for sale at $20,000. They were snapped up as quickly as they were com pleted, he said. Irvin A. Blietz, who has de veloped residential areas along Chicago's fashionable North Shore for more than 30 years, believes his one- bedroom homes are the only housing of their type in the country. . The market is limited but constant, he said, and every community in the country could use such homes. Blietz'i row of flat-roofed one-bedroom homes are lo cated in suburban Evanston, near public transportation and close to shopping areas. Each dwelling was built on a lot 25 feet wide and 118 feet deep. The homes are 19 feet wide and 34 feet long, with a patio in the rear and with a front yard. The builder believes the homes are ideally . suited for their owners-mostly . widows and widowers, bachelors, ca reer women, and elderly cou ples. The single bedroom, 12-by-13 feet, has a closet across the width of the room and opens onto a small bathroom. A hallway along the side of the house leads to an L-shaned living room with a thermo- panea suaing window wall opening onto a miniature back yard. Louvered doors open on a table-high counter separating the living room from the rec tangular kitchen. Blietz said the houses are not inexpensive. Most often they are bought by persons who have sold larger hard-to-maintain homes but who do not want to live in apartments. For persons who can afford a down payment of about $5 000, the monthly payments would amount to approxi mately $70 to $75. "Widows have about 80 per cent of the wealth of the country, and they still want to live well after they sell their big homes," he said. -Blietz estimated that a $30, 000 home in this area could be duplicated for $18,000 at San Antonio, Tex., and said that even around New York and Cleveland, O.-once con sidered expensive-homes are not so high. But the workmanship is su perior, he said, even in the lowest priced homes, and own ers have been forced to sell at a loss. ' Tips on Corduroy Care New Brunswick, NX-Corduroy comes made up in all types of clothes, but many housewives do not know how to care for the fabric. Mrs. Florence G. Minifie, extension clothing specialist at Rutgers university, gives these suggestions. Wash corduroy by hand with any mild soap or soap less detergent and warm wa ter. Squeeze the water light ly through the fabric, rinse until the water comes clear. and avoid soaking, wringing, twisting or crushing the fab ric. Never put the corduroy through a wringer because it will set wrinkles. Fair Sex Takes Trimming In Matter or B BTBiru urir.Mue By PATRICIA WIGGINS United Press International Washington-(UPD-In spite of the growing number of states with equal-pay laws for wom en, the fair sex still takes a trimming in pay checks, compared with males holding similar jobs. A Labor Department re port showed that women clerical workers, who make up 30 per cent of all women workers, came closest to matching males in salaries. But the ladies' median earn ings were only about three fourths that of pay received by men in the same occupa tional category. Women sales workers, seven per cent of all women workers, were at the bottom of the ladder in the job-pay comparison, earning only about two-fifths as much as men in similar jobs. The study, based, in part on intensive surveys conduct ed in 1956, also showed that while education is an im portant determinant of in come for both men and .wom en, men with the same amount- of education as ex coeds came off better in post school salaries. For example, the median Tea Saturday Is Benefit For Building Fund Ashland-An event of last week end was a benefit tea given Saturday by Mrs. Ralph Hassell at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Williams, Fern Valley road, as a benefit for the building fund of Our Lady of the Mountain Catholic church. Members of Lady Elks assisted in the event. Red roses centered the tea table and chrysanthemum bouquets were used about the rooms. Pouring during the after noon were Mrs. Minnie Bar ron Mrs. Jack Weaver, Mrs. Lloyd Selby, Mrs. Ralph Burg ess, Mrs. John Thompson, Mrs. William B. McCullough, Mrs. Graham Dean and Mrs. Roger Rath. Receiving at the door were Mrs. Tom Boyd and Mrs. John Westgard. Those serving in cluded Mrs. B. J. Krug, Mrs. M. L. Carter, Mrs. William Drew, Mrs. Scott Berge, Mrs. Don Fowler, Mrs. Jackie Whitsett, Mrs. John Wilkin son, Mrs. Oscar Silver Jr., Mrs. Ellen Franco Cox, and Mrs. Jim Madison. Also assisting Mrs. Hassell and Mrs. Williams were Mrs. Ray Sharp, Mrs. Opal Brown, Mrs. M. E. Roberson, Mrs. C. M. Culmer, Mrs. M. J. Mauls by, Mrs. . James Smith, Mrs. Earl Schiiling, Mrs. Alvin Fel lers, Mrs. L. C. Ireland, Mrs. Cline Taylor, Mrs. C. E. Hodg ins, Mrs. Hester Carter, Mrs. Sam Pospyhala and Mrs. Rah ker. Mrs. Hassell plans another benefit for the church, pos sibly a garden party during the summer weeks. 4 Films Planned For Howard PTA Sam Taylor will show films of a foreign country at a meeting of Howard School Paren t-Teacher association January 22. The session is set for 8 p.m. in the multi-purpose room of the school. Refreshments will be served by mothers of children in the fourth grade. Child care will be provided. Corning Offers New Oven Ware New York-(UPD-C 0 o k-and-serve ceramic dishes with the strength of a missile nose cone will be shot into freezer-stove-table orbit with no pauses for thawing. Corning Glass Works intro produced the new pyroceram ware in a demonstration here. The r e m a r-fc able super strength products are made from material developed orig inally for guided missile ra domes. The heat-resistent white ceramic is guaranteed unconditionally against dam age from temperature changes, na matter how abrupt. Dishes may be taken from a freezer and put immediately into a hot oven or an open flame without risk of break age, the manufacturer said. Or they may be taken from heat and plunged directly into ice water. . The- dishes are described as non-porous so that they will clean as easily as china. The blue cornflower pattern is part of the material, and will not scratch' or burn off. The new line of cookware was launched with a 10-inch square skillet and 3 saucepans, in 1 quart, IV2 quart and l3i quart sizes. All have glass cov ers, detachable handles and metal cradles for table serv ice. f Make vegetables more in teresting by topping them with a seasoned butter sauce, grated cheese, sauteed mush rooms or nuts. ray Checks nnn ... :iu m. income for women with four or more years of college and full-time jobs was $3,809, compared with $6,980 for men of comparable schooling and working full-time. Booklet Issued The Labor Department booklet notes that many wom en are concentrated in tra ditionally low-paying occupa tions and relatively low wage industries. When men and women have similar jobs, women are usually in the lower-pay brackets. "Since many women leave the labor force for marriage and family reasons, and re turn when their responsibili ties decrease, they often lack job seniority and work ex perience needed to qualify them for advancement," the booklet said. Figures on women in the federal government seem to bear this out. Of 533,802 women working for the government-25 per cent of all federal employees -85 per cent ranked in grades 5 and below, and less than three per cent in grades 12 and above. The average length of serv ice was 11.3 years for men and 7.6 for women. Employ ees with less than five years of service included 41 per cent of the women and 16 per cent of the men. Michigan and Montana adopted equal pay laws in 1919, but were alone in the field for nearly 25 years until World War II. California and Nebraska took the step in 1957 and brought the roster to its present number-17 states. But the Labor Department reports that women "consist ently" have lower average earnings than men in each of the major retail trade groups. The greatest difference is in department stores, where women average $1.15' an hour and men $1.74; and in drug stores, where women average 95 cents and men, $1.54. Some consolation, however, is offered by the report of a New York Stock Exchange survey. The survey noted that almost 52 per cent of the individual shareholders of publicly - owned corporations were women-underpaid or not. is the very small price for the customer blended luxury of made-to-orderface powder.
