New York - (l!PU - No mat
ter how neat, how expert the
workmanship, your house
painting job will be botched
if you don't make proper pro
vision for painting non-wood
surfaces metals and cement-based
products.
Paints that will give long
wear and satisfactory surface
on exterior wood may not
be suitable for other materials
commonly used in home con
struction, or else they must
be applied over a specified
primer for a lasting job, the
National Paint, Varnish and
Lacquer association warns the
do-it-yourself painter.
Ordinary house paint just
won't do pn any surface con
taining Portland cement since
the alkali with which this ma
terial abounds attacks oil and
alkyd based paints and de
stroys their adhesion.
Easiest to apply, says the
association, is exterior latex
paint designed for use on ma
sonry. Since this paint is wa
ter thinned, the surface to
be painted should be damp
ened slightly before applying
the first coat.
Dry Powder Used
Portland cement paint, pur
chased as a dry powder and
mixed with water before use,
may be used also, although
it may require treatment
with a surface conditioner if
other types of paints arc to
be applied over it later or
it may have to be removed
completely if peeling devel
ops. Solvent - thinned paints
which contain a synthetic rub
ber - type resin often call
ed swimming pool paint
may be used also. These
should not be confused with
latex paints which are some
times called rubber - based
but do not actually contain
rubber. Certain oil - based
stucco and masonry paints
that have been reinforced to
improve alkali resistance may
be used on well aged cement
surfaces.
Cinder and slag blocks pre
sent a special problem be
cause they are at the same
time both alkaline and acid
and contain iron particles
which will cause rust stains
on latex or Portland cement
paint. The recommended coat
ing is the solvent - thinned
rubber resin or swimming
pool paint.
Floors, decks, porches, pa
tios and terraces are best
painted with either rubber
base floor and deck enamel
or with latex floor enamel for
outdoor use.
Metals most commonly en
countered around the house
are iron and steel, galvanized
steel, aluminum and the sup
ric metals, copper, brass and
bronze. All corrode in some
manner and all except alum
inum will stain surrounding
areas with the downwash of
the corrosion. Before paint
ing iron and steel be sure to
remove any rust with steel
wool or sandpaper, prefera
bly to the bare metal. Then
apply a corrosion inhibiting
primer such as zinc chromate.
Follow this with topcoat.
Galvanized steel requires a
special primer known as zinc
dust-zinc oxide paint or, if
this can not be obtaired, a
primer rich in zinc chromate.
Follow label instructions as
to type of topcoat.
Aluminum should be prim
ed with any exterior primer
except in areas of extreme cor
rosion (sea shore or industrial
zone) where zinc chromate is
preferred. Any desired top
coat may be used. Non-yellowing
exterior lacquer will
preserve the metallic appear
ance. Copper and its alloys should
be primed with a metal prim
er which does not contain
zinc. Use varnish or non-yellowing
exterior lacquer to
keep the natural look.

SURRENDERS - Richard L. Grodln, 42, is shown as he sur
rendered at the Alameda, Calif., county jail after a grand
jury indictment was returned accusing him of attempted
grand theft, solicitation to commit a felony and asking for a
bribe from a public official. Grodin, a real estate broker
and Oakland's onetime "Young Man of the Year" is involved
in trying to fix the Oakland city council in a $2,700,000 re

Oregon Supreme
Court Decisions
-Salem-flJPD-Cities cannot be
compelled by state law to set
up civil service commissions,
the Oregon Supreme Court
ruled Wednesday.
In a unanimous decision
written by Justice Kenneth
O'Connell, the court threw
out a complaint against the
city of Milwaukie, and a suit
to force creation of a civil
service system for firemen.
Clackamas County Clr.'uit
Judge Ralph M. Holman " as
reversed.
The case was filed by Rich
ard F. and Lulu S. Hcinig
through the state against the
mayor of Milwaukie and the
city council. The city officials
had appealed the Issuance of'
a writ of mandamus by Hol
man favoring the Helnigs.
O'Connell wrote that the
legislature doesn't have au
thority to enact a law relat
ing to city government even
though it applies generally to
all cities unless the subject
matter Is of "general concern"
to the state as a whole.
Of Local Concern
The hiring and firing of
firemen in Milwaukie, for in
stance, is not of general con
cern statewide, the high court
said.
O'Connell said (he conclu
sion that must be drawn is
that creation of such a sys
tem is purely one of local con
cern. The Washington county
court and assessor were or
dered to levy a tax on prop
erty that made up former
grade school districts to pay
a $9,000 bill claimed by a
union high school district in
Washington, Yamhill and
Multnomah counties that
takes in the old territory.
The grade school districts
were abolished in 1057 owing
$9,000 for tuition and transv
tation costs.
The new district sued
Washington County Judge Joe
A. Jaross, County Commis
sioner Barbara A. Wilcox and
County Assessor Helen
Steinke.

firmed. Other decisions:

Treatment of Pernicious
Anemia
Many persons ask me about
the treatment of pernicious
anemia. Actunlly, today, blood
s p c c i a lists
look upon this
term as a bit
archaic, and
are more like-
J ly to speak of
a primary or
a megaloblas
tic anemia, by
w h I c h they
mean a type
of anemia in
which the cells In the blood
are larger than normal, and
In which the cause of the ane
mia Is not the loss of much
blood from the body - as In
the case of a woman who men
struates excessively or a man
who suffers from bleeding
piles.
When a person has a so
called secondary anemia, due
to much loss of blood from
the body, the blood-cells tend
to be small, and there is
greater percentage loss of
hemoRlobin (the red coloring
matter in the blood) than
there is a loss of red cells. In
Ihe case of a "pernicious"
type of anemia, the blood cells
lend to be a bit larger than
normal, and Ihey tend to con-
amount of hemoglobin.
Also, In cases of the hered
itary type of "pernicious ane
mia," the gastric juice in the
stomach usually contains no
free hydrochloric acid; also,
the person may get gray early
and he may develop tingling
or strange sensations or
weakness in his legs.
In cases of secondary ane
mia. Ihe body needs Iron,
while in cases of primary or
megaloblastic anemia the per
son needs intramuscular injec
tions of minute amounts of
vitnmin B-12. According to a
recent article by Professor
Paul Heller, of Chicago, after
a few weeks of Intensive treat
ment with B-12, the patient
citn be maintained In good
health on an injection of 5(1
micrograms of B-12 once a
month.
