FUR COAT CARE New York -UPD- Just be cause furry animals don't carry umbrellas doesn't mean you should get your fur coat wet, says Harry Jay Treu. A soaking hurts the fur once it is off the animal, Treu said. When a coat does get wet, do not apply heat or hang it near a radiator or fire. Put it on a hanger and let it dry naturally in a cool, dry room. Comb the fur light ly with the grain and brush in the same direction before drying. Afterward, shake the coat lightly. 4 ICE CREAM BALLS New York -4JPD- Ice cream balls for a party can be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer until serving.

Such, as egg boxes that break easily into halves with out scrambling the contents. And tear strips on frozen food wrappers so cooking direc tions and recipes come off in tact. Or else, printed direc tions on or inside the box. More recipes on all pro cessed food packages.

One-meal size dessert and cake mixes for two and three member families, or two half size bags in regular packages to eliminate leftovers.

A standardized spice shelf. Pack herbs and spices only in glass, metal or other airtight containers, preferably with screw tops, reasonably uni form in size and shape, and with dated labels to show freshness. In small sizes, please, so the -supply doesn't outlive flavor and aroma. Give us paper strips to separate frozen fish fillets so we can cook one or many. A check of work'ng wives in our office turned up these requests: More Suggestions j Cardboard milk cartons ithat don't leak; cheese or j meat-filled plastic bags with tear notches that tear the : wrapping, not fingernails. Push-in slots on boxes that don't fracture fingernails; and coffee can seals that come off easily in one piece without showering the kitchen with coffee; pouring spouts on flour bags. If millers want to share their favorite recipes, let them put same on the outside of the bag - or even mail 'em, said one irate homemaker who's had enough of fishing recipes out of the bottom of the sack. Memo to supermarket man agers: Put dairy, frozen, food and produce departments at the end of the normal shopping route, not right by the door so that perishables are crushed or thawed before we reach the checkout counter. Give us more room for shop ping carts; chilled vegetable bins; keep the aisles clear of packing boxes or mark the Mouse cousin of King Phumiphon.

Up to 6 Monlhs To Pay r i i I h Russian Women Have Equality; Want More Powder Puffs Instead By ALINE MOSBY United Press International Moscow - (UPD - The New Year's resolution of Miss Mos cow: More powder puffs and petticoats. Equality she has plenty of, and has had since the 1917 revolution. She won so much that she wound up helping run the government and fac tories and got a shovel put in her hand and a tractor under foot. Now she'd like some old fashioned femininity. During 1959, Russian wom en got a peek at what their western sisters had been up to. Tlie House of Dior sent tooth-pick-slender models with high-fashion clothes to Mos cow. The invasion from Paris had a startling impact. Now you see homemade copies of Dior fashions on Gorky Street. A record number of . tour ists gave Soviet females a look at western hair-dos and clothing styles. An American beauty shop, complete with colored plastic hair rollers and hair spray, was a smash success at the American Ex hibition in Moscow. Displays of cosmetics, flimy lingerie, home appliances and furni ture drew crows of women. In the Supreme Soviet (congress), on collective farms, in government offices, you still see the typical post-revolution Soviet woman of over 35-a sturdy figure in a man nish, severe . suit, long hair drawn back in a bun or or braids from her cosmetic less face. Some Cut Hair But some girls have cut their hair. Young women pass up that fourth slice of bread. Within the next 10 years, women in cities, at least, will look more like Western wom en. Hair bobs and permanents probably will become stand ard. Lipstick and nailpolish are becoming common. The opening of beauty shops shows that the government encourages this back-to-femininity trend. You1 can buy eyelash curl ers at the GUM department store. Made-to-6rder pointed- toe shoes also showed up in the store. The next 10 years also will see changes to more feminine work. The Soviet press has mused that maybe women shouldn't shovel snow and operate heavy machinery aft JANUARY :..;:''.'.".-:.:-.:'.---.:-..-. -.."..;.;-:--: xxxx-x-.v :-..:-.::-.-: X: -x x...-:-v.--;-x-: .- -.'." :-: . : . :.;..:;.::;;;:-:.v.:::: .y..x--Xv; :; ;-: xv x:;v: xx;vX ;::.:;i -:X;:::.- :-x-x-x;. x.:x i:X;X -x :::-::i.-x---.-x-"-.v: Fashion -Finds Priced To Clear!

One women's maga zine editor predicted women's share of . heavy labor will diminish gradually. The U.S.S.R, now is a wom an's world in many ways. Lenin said, "Every housewife should know how to run the government." and many do. There are 350 women in the Supreme Soviet, another half million in local governments. Seventy-six per cent of So viet doctors are women; so are a third of the nation's engineers and technicians, and 70 per cent of the teach ers. Promises Made Recently, .women have been able to buy refrigerators and other household items that the U.S.S.R. has not produced be fore. The government has promised that the 1960's will see plenty of consumer goods to lighten housework. A propaganda campaign has been launched to try to make husbands help with the dishes. So far, no results. Communist theorists also plan that women will be freed comoletely from their homes so their labor will be as available as men's. Com NEW I i 1..

But now that women have laid the streets and built the buildings of the Soviet Union, many appear to want to re turn to the lace collars and helpless look which they were "emancipated" from.
