And il to anxious to huvo us buy it that euslor (arms uro ullowcd than on Just about anything also. Homo Insulation la the un uiuul Item . . . The stuff that makes It possible for you to use less fuel and bo Just as warm In Winter. The reasons why tho govern ment is encouraging people to Insuluto their homes are easy to see . . . Besides needing less fuel to heat your homo, when A '.on buy Insulation you uro not ''.hvndlna tha Held or vuui mo terlali . . . Tha people living In your homo will have fewer colds . . . And rc-decornimit ex peine Is saved. Oil is Rationed So far, only fuel oil has been rationed . . . Bui there has been frequent mention of possible wood rationing, und It may come at any time! If you heat your home with oil, you are going to have to gat along with about 25 per cent less oil than you used a year ago . , , (With varlutlons depending upon circumstances) . . . But If your home Is not Insulated, and you have a thor ough Insulation Job done, you'll find you actually won I need ai tha fuel oil you can get under tha rationing program. For instance ... If you put Jhsulollon In your ceilings, You'll save about 18 per cent on fuel . . . And If you have storm sashes put on the win low, there'll be another 20 per cent or so saved . . . And blow lug Insulation Into the outside walla adds a little more to the savings. Walls aren't so Important, howavcr, bacausa tho loss of heat through a single pane ol glass Is three times what it Is through the uninsulated wall. Do It Yourself The easiest way to start In lulatlng Is to put rock wool batts on the attic floor . . , A ob that can bo done by the home owner. I asked Ralph Howard, tho manager of Big Basin Lumber YStompany, how much it would "cost to buy rock wool and have It put on by an expert, and ho said it would bo about $100 for on ordinary five-room house, using full-thick 4-Inch butts , . . Or about $70 with semi-thick butts ... If Installed by home talent, It would cost lots less, of coursa, These rock wool botls are In teresting . . . Tho way the Johns Munvlllo onos are made is by blowing tho rock wool onto watorproof papor , , , Which "gives a perfect, - even distribu tion. And, of course, If you havo rock wool on tha attic floor, tha heat from tha summer sun can't como down Into the roomsl Storm Sashes As for storm sashes for win dows , , . Well, I have to admit V forgot to ask him the cost . . . But I suppose It varies accord ing to tho size of tho windows and how many there are. I did ask him, though, If you could ever opon tho window af ter you put on a storm sash . . , And ho said that Micro's a ven tilator which can ba raised to let In fresh nir , . , When it's time to put on window screens In Summertime, you Just tako out tho storm sashes, i Ono nice thing about Insulat ing your homo now is that It's a pormanont improvement , , . ' You still save on fuel (and fuel costs) after tho war. If there's anything moro you want to know about Insulation, why don't you ask Ralph How ard yourself? . . . Ho's at Big Basin Lumber company, you know. Vital Work Do you realize that some times 1U0 dressings uro used on ono wound rncolvcd In battle? . , . That's why the nod Cross has to have YOUR help In fold ing dressings , . . Klamath county never yet has mudo Its quoin of Red Cross dressings, but If you and your friends get to work wa can muko a decant showing. Drop In at the Red Cross liuudquurtcrs, 418 Muln, any aft ernoon or on Tuesday or Thurs day night , . , And toko a clcun house dress or smock to put on after you 'get there. WltutaUi K you haven't seen the dick- Ieys , , , (Or falxo-blouses) . . . ut Whytnl's, you're miss ing u lot along that line . . , I Because Whytal's has an un usually wide ussortment of aw fully nico ones. There is one kind that Is only $1.00, and I thought the girl wus muklng a mlstuko when she quoted thut price . . . They're very smiirt looking sharkskin , , . Tailored . . , with hi-lo convertible necklines . . . And como in all the pastel shados, besides whlto. . You'll find all kinds of dick eys and collurs ut Whytal's , . . Tullored or frilly stylos . . . All kinds of necklines, too , , . So thero's something there for every typo of suit, whether tail ored, drcssmukor or sports . . . And for sweaters, too. Tho frilly dlckoys and the collars ore priced at $1.00 and 1.1)5. . And while I'm on tho subject of such things I simply must mention the darling Jersey blouses I suw at Whytnl's . . . They have short sleeves and a new tricky neckline that is high and square . . .And won't sug down because threa little buttons at the back of the neck seo that the neckline Is kepi up where It should be. These Jerseys come In all shades, Including white and solid black . . . And they'd be wonderful to wcur with skirts, slacks or suits. They'ro $2.80 at Whytal's. FOOD bags for left-overs are hard to find . . . But Jane Gnrcelon was able to get In an order for a shipment when she was In Los Ange les tho last week of January . . -And even so, when they ar rived hera she had a very pleas ant surprlso. Food bags for a long time, you know, have coma equipped with zippers . . . But when Jnno ordered these, the monufoc turer's representative told her that no mora zippers were available and these food bags would hove draw strings in them. ... So imagine her excitement when she opened tha crato and found that all of them had zip pers! . . She thinks the manu facturer must have had a re serve supply of zippers and, since she ordered early, was able to send up zlppered ones. , These food bags are made oi watcrDroofad silk . . . which docs not tear so easily as oiled silk . . . They're entirely sani tary, because you can wash them . . . And they re wonder fully handy when you want to keep left-overs fresh. All of them are 12 x 12 Inches In slzo and cost $1.25 At Gorcelon'a. Q QuvUttk SOMETHING entirely new has arrived at Currin'a . . . It's a largo puff that fits over your hand and is filled with lightly scented de odorant powder so you can pat It or slop It on where needed. It's called a "Spreo Puff" "A Special Product for a Special Purpose" . . . And the powder is an antl-porsplrant that really stops perspiration. ' Here's an easy, sura way to avoid perspiration odor . , . It's a auick way. too. because you Just bavo to pat with the puff and that particular portion of your skin is covered with the fine powder. It's fine for tired feot, too . . And for chofed areas. The "Spree Puff" la entirely harmless to the most delicate skin and has no effect on dainty fabrics, so when you use It you shouldn't have a worry In the world. Tho "Spree Puff" Is $1.25 at SHIPBUILDING CZ E WASHINGTON, Feb. 18 (A') A house nnvul subcommittee re ported today that the American shipbuilding Industry, "ulmost criminally neglected" after tha first World wur, could produce up to 20,000,000 tons of shipping this year if what It described us "undue und unnecessary" delays aro corrected. Tho committee, reporting on an 'Investigation mudo lust De cember of west' coast shipyurds working on nuvul contructs, urged that an "over-all ship building supervisor" bo placed on tho Pacific const and thut field representatives bo given moro authority to straighten out allocution and priority snarls. Absenteeism Tho committee, consisting of Rep, Mugnusnn (D-Wush.), chair man, and Hop. Anderson (It Calif.) reported finding "consid erublo confusion' as to tho auth ority and discretion allowed nuvy supervisors of shipbuild ing in tho field, particularly with-respect to authority In tho supervisors to permit substitu tions for specified materials presently unavailable." I Other findings on a nation wide basis Included: 1. Munhours lost because of absenteeism totulcd 12,700,000 In December alone, compared with 170,000 munhours lost as a result of shipyard strikes dur ing tho entire year of 1042. 2. Strikes In other Industries making materials for shipyards resulted In a lag "fur behind schedule." Mora Women 3. Although selective service hasn't crippled the Industry, it has caused much unrest among workmen "duo to their uncer tainty" regarding draft board policies. 4. At least 19 per cent of to tal shipyard employment will consist of women by the end of February. 8. All -standing closed-shop agreements with recognized la bor organizations should be fro zen for the duration. 6, Criticism of cost-plus con tracts were "for the most port unfounded and due to miscon ception."

The Ore gon houso of representatives leaped a major hurdlo today when it voted 30 to 30 against increasing from $4,000,000 to $5, 000,000 tho amount of surplus income tax revenues that could bo given in any one year to school districts to reduce prop erty taxes. The tie vote was on a motion to send a bill back to committee to increase the amount to $5, 000,000. The measure, as well as two companion bills, amends the ini tiative passed by the voters at tho general election last Novem ber. Provisions The three bills will be taken up in tho house late today, when they probably will be passed and sent to the senate. The bills provide that not more than $4,000,000 be given school districts on any one year, this provision reducing Oregon's $38,500,000 annual property tax total by more than 10 per cent. School interests, backed by Gov ernor Snell, wanted the total boosted to $5,000,000, and it was on this issue that the motion to send it back to committee was made. People May Vote Governor Snell estimated that about $9,000,000 in surplus rev enues would be available for the reserve fund that would be used after the war. This amount docs not Include the $4,000,000 that would be given school dis tricts this year. Chairman Giles L. French, Moro, of the taxation and rev enue committee, said the com mittee is drafting a bill to let the people vote in November, 1944, on a proposal to create a permanent reserve fund to make the state contribute a good share of the cost of school operation. day.
