W.

Farley of the state safety committee. He was inclined to look the use of air raid warning 1 signals in Boston to announce tho victory of the allied forces over the Japanese" invasion fleet 61 New Guinea. "We ought to celebrate the un- I conditional surrender of our enemies," Farley explained, "and anything less than that Is not conclu- However, ringing of air raid I alarm signals is not likely to occur 1 again. These signals were intended I for one purpose only--to warn people of an air raid. In fact, the army has intimated strongly that it does not believe that audible signals 1 should be Used for anything except the 1 planned purposes." I TO IDENTIFY ALL DEFENSE WORKERS C.

Mr. Isbell and Allan I.

Davis, public safety committee chairman here, attended a meeting in Pittsfield last evening at which plans for the preparation of Identification cards were outlined, Each of the ARP workers fill out I a form which requires detailed information as to his name, address, description, occupation, ancestry, 1 education, affiliations and civilian defense capacity.

America's tradition hf wood is shown in small-scale models, plans, photographs, architects' sketches and samples of different woods and wood products used, which show concretely the planning and construction of a wqoden house. Photographs and designs of nine important modern houses, costing between $5,000 and $15,000, by the leading architects of tho United' States are exhibited.

Homes Grbpius and Breuer. George Howe, i Prank Lloyd Wright, Yeon and Carl! Koch, famous names In architectural circles, show new uses of wood and prefabricated materials, original methods of construction, and clever utilization of natural surroundings. Changes in style as well as the developments in methods of construction are illustrated by pictures and small-scale models of the massive construction of early hand- hewn log cabins, the heavy frame construction of colonial homes, refinements of the 18th century, and the first use of the light stud frame, one of America's great architectural achievements. New ideas for architects and for those who are considering designing or building their own homes are in-1 eluded. The exhibition is timely for i it comes at a moment when there' is great interest in federal aod mu- nicipal housing programs, as well as a growing demand for low-cost homes.

The Museum of Modern Art in New York has lent the exhibition, which will be shown at the Lawrence museum through March 30.

He also advised "In your enthusiasm" to guard against disposing of any serviceable articles or materials which you will later have to replace. He wrote: "We must conserve not only materials we no longer can Use, but we must conserve usable articles as well." Asistance was asked of readers of the Transcript in preserving material of antiquarian Interest and value, by the Society for the preservation ot New England Antiquities through William Sumner Appleton of Boston, corresponding secretary of the society.

Ho suggested that such articles be sent to the society rather than destroyed or placed in unsympathetic hands. some 150 to 200 men and boys will start an Intensive house-to-house canvass In North Adams for the purpose of collecting salvage to be used in the government's victory program. The men and boys will remain at their task until every street in the city has been visited, it was announced today by Edwin A. French, regional director for the collection of salvage.
