It's Important, rnillyl
iS 'TN theso days of rationing 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

times 1U0 dressings uro used on

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

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.

HOUSE CASTS
EM ON
SCHOOL GILL
By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
SALEM, Feb. 18 (!') 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.
