Lumber Shortage Threatens Defense Producers of brick and other clay products were urged by WPB recent ly to gauge production to meet an anticipated increased demand for these materials for use in the place of lumber in both temporary and permanent structures. Ben Alexander, special assistant on lumber in the Office of Industry Op erations, called upon all manufac turers of brick, tile and gypsum board, and on the membership of unions within the industry to aid in averting a "serious temporary short age of lumber," "Because of Lend-Lease require ments, and heavy construction pro grams of the Army, Navy, and Na tional Housing Agency," Mr. Alex ander said, "it is estimated that the available supply of lumber will fall 6,000,000,000 board feet short of meeting this year's estimated 38, 000,000,000 board-feet requirements." It is believed that at least 2,000, 000,000 board feet of lumber could be saved by increased utilization of brick and tile, and an additional 100,000,000 to 150,000,000 feet saved by use of gypsum board. Adequate brick, tile and gypsum board for such uses can be produced by ex panding the present output of the in dustry, which is now working at only 30 per cent of capacity. Annual capacity production of the brick and tile industry is estimated at the equivalent of approximately 13,000, 000,000 bricks. WPB has been assured that there is an adequate supply of skilled workmen to handle additional con struction. State College Hints For Farm Homes By RUTH CURRENT Your gloves, handbag, your um brella? and other accessories like these are not the most important items of your wardrobe but they deserve extra care these days. Cloth ing specialists suggest that the hab it of losing gloves and umbrella is a good one for America women to break. Buy a glove-holder to attach to your pocketbook if you are in clined to lose your gloves, or sew a name tape on the inside seam. Take a tip from the sales person and put your gloves on just as she tries them on you: Ease fingers on first; then thumb and palm. Turn rings so the settings are toward palm of your hand. The best way to take most gloves off is to loosen each fin gertip, turn the cuff back over the fingers and draw the gloves off. Suede gloves are an exception; try to work them off easily without turning back the cuff or pulling the fingertips. After you take off a pair of gloves, pull them gently into shape, blow into the fingers, and lay them in tis sue paper in a flat box. Don't let your gloves get too dir ty before you clean them. Watch for rips in your gloves and mend them promptly. Always use cotton thread in sewing leather. Silk thread will cut the leather and pull out. ? A silk umbrella that is not used for a long time needs a shower bath once in a while. Clean a silk um brella by brushing it with a soft cloth. Clean an oil-silk umbrella by washing with mild soap and water. Rinse off and dry in the shade be fore closing. Handle oil-silk um brellas very carefully in cold wea ther or the oil-silk will stiffen and crack. > Visits in Raleigh Mrs. D. M. Roberson visited in Raleigh last week. a .
