Here's New Concept In Building Homes THE BAYTQWN SUN, TUESDAY, MAY 3, 1955 Here is a new concept in home house which spreads its arms to include automobile shelter, garden, courts and other elements for gracious living in an enclosed rectangle. Wherever it is built, the home will be self-contained and visually independent of its surroundings. That the theory 'behind a new design by Paul chairman of the department of architecture at Yale University. The design also is hig expression of one way in which asbestos-cement siding may be used to add interest and charm to a better class house. KCs To Give 15 Bed Lamps To Hospital The San Jacinto Council 2788, Knights of Columbus, will present San Jacinto Memorial hospital with 15 patient bed lamps in formal ceremonies at.6:30 p.m.

Texas Ave. Dial 8241 The Schweikher design lg one of six prepared at the invitation of the Asbestos-Cement Products Association. While representing various architectural philosophies, all offer attractive appearance, effi- cent space utilization and true functionalism. Schweikher has planned his home to be contained in a 72-by-72 foot square. Half of the area is given over to the house, with its adjoining i garden, pool and terrace.

The other half is alloted to an automobile shelter, a- motor court and a rear gravel court. Except for the driveway to the motor ''court, the entire area is enclosed. The square is bounded by an outer wall of the house and a continuing house-high enclosure. The latter is composed partly of solid panels covered with asbestos siding shingles to match the house exterior and partly of welded wire fencing. All exterior walls of the house are surfaced with asbestos siding shingles; Schweikher has added a distinctly new touch by using the same material as the interior wall finish.

This identity of wall treatments helps to blend the indoor and outdoor living Simplicity of plan and detail, with corresponding ease of construction are major considerations in the plan, Schwikhcr reports. Standard steel sections are used for the structural The house is built entirely of noncombustible materials selected for rapid assernbly, durability, low hiain- tenace, color harmony and uniform texture. Asbestos siding, Schweikher said, is consonant with the objective. "The plan's openness," the designer comments, "gives an impression of informality within a rectilinear discipline. Light, air and space are elements of the design." More and more architects are turning to asbestos siding for a truly modern exterior wall covering, the Asbestos-Cement Products Association reports.

The introduction of smart new shingle styles and colors, it says, has given impetus to a trend. Asbestos siding, a material that cannot burn, has long bene known for its permanence and economy. Letters To The Editor You and your organization can take a bow for your contribution in informing the taxpayers during the 1955 income tax filing season. And you know, we enter this year's filing period with a self- help approach. This celled for encouraging taxpayers to prepare their own returns or, if their problems were complicated, to seek assistance from qualified tax practitioners.

Actually, in the past years, only an approximate ten per cent of the taxpayers in the Austin District had appeared in our offices for the previously offered gratuitous service of return preparations. The other ninety per cent were indirectly footing the bill under those circumstances. This year, with your help and the resulting cooperation of the good folks in the southern half of Texas, we have been able to keep our main field force on our primary job of collecting the Nation's revenue. As a direct result, the fifty per cent of man-hours saved this year on taxpayer assistance increased audit and collection activities to the tune of $7,570,000 during the first three months of this year over last year. You played a vital role in this whole picture, and I want to extend to you and to your staff my grateful thanks for your splendid public service.

Easier Financing For Home Repair Is Now Available The owner of a home, financed through an FHA loan can take advantage of the new "open end" provision of mortgage for such improvements as a new roof or new asbestos-cement siding, provided the expenditure does not.

exceed the amount already amortized, according to agency Under the end" plan, -e. part of the Housing Act of 1954, the home owner may borrow again (on his original mortgage) for improvements that protect or advance the property's livability. Sometimes the life of the mortgage is extended to keep payments nt the same rate. Again, larger payments may be set so that the mortgage will be paid up as origr inally set If the loan is to be used to provide additional living quarters, such as a new room or wing, money can be borrowed beyond the original amount of the mortgage. The provisions of Title permitting modernization loans up to $2.500, have been continued.

S. surpluses. The ICAC reports and without (he United States' stastical position on cotton is less favorable than the cotton trade wants it to be. The ICAC is an inter-governmental organization of 32 cotton producing and consuming counties. The secretariat is here.

It maintains a careful watch on all aspects of the world cotton demand, price. The United' States is the largest cotton producing 1 and consuming country in the world. Naturally, what is done cottonwise here is reflected throughout the rest of the world. The world group estimates there will be aftirther increase of carryover stocks at the end of the present marketing season. As of the moment, supply in the United States is estimated at 23.5 million, biles, and as the ICAC states it, is estimated at 13 million bales.

This leaves stocks on hand of 10.5 million bales. The "disappearance" figure is computed at 8.8 bales (or domestic consumption and million for export. This huge carryover of 10.5 million bales, according to the ICAC "has given rise to extensive clis cussions in both government and trade circles on what measures can be adopted to ensure the satisfactory disposal of present surpluses." There are two alternative policies under discussion: continuation of the administration's plan for a gradual introduction of flexible support prices, and more immediate action to push cotton shipments by means of some form of export subsidy of two-price system. Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson' said last and has repeated it several times since, that there would be no export subsidy during the 1954-55 marketing: season which ends July 3.1.

No commitment has been made for Benson said recently that the means to increase exports and reduce surplus stocks alvcady have been provided bv legislation. The National Cotton "Council has recommended continuance of present policies with certain extensions and amendments, notably an increase in aurhotizntions for shipments abroad to'- be paid for in foreign currencies, and a more aggressive, policy by the export- import bank. Tin- ICAC reports strong congressional sentiment urging a more positive export policy than offered to dale under the foreign currencies law a policy which would be designed to make 17.

Unique Ore Used Long Ago Now Safeguards Home Roof When builder roofs a home with asbestos shingles he is utilizing the protective characteristics of a mineral with a romantic history crating back more than 2,000 years, students of building materials report. While asbestos roofing shingles were first manufactured in this country just fifty years ago, the unique rock which is an important ingredient in their composition was mined in the Italian Alps by the early Romans and woven by them into various fabrics.

The ancient Greeks used it as lamp wicking as early as 450 B.C. Cloth made of asbestos fibers is mentioned in the tales of Charlemagne, king of the Franks from. 788 to 814 A.D. It figures, too, in stories of Marco Polo, who saw- spec i while traveling in Siberia in 1250. Nevertheless, asbestos was regarded chiefly as a freak of nature.as late as the 19th Century.

It's "ancient history" ended in 1877 with the discovery of great deposits in the province of Quebec, Canada. Since then the use of asbestos in manufactured products has flourished. In the manufacture of asbestos roofing shingles, asbestos fibers are combined with portland cement. The union of those two noncombustible materials produces a shingle that will not burn, rot or wear away. Because of their extreme durability, asbestos cement shingles are a favored roofing for better class homes.

Their long Hfe is n.n economy They are the least expensive of shingle types in the "permanent" class. Asbestos roofing shingles also are highly regarded for their beauty and prestige values. Thick enough to command impressive shadow lines, they are made mnny attractive colors. Blacks, greens, browns, blues, grays and white are among the most popular. A new stylo of asbestos roofing shingle is now being placed on the market.

Known as "ranch design." they arc sold under various brand names. They are readily identifiable by their size, which is 12 by 2't inches. Builders nrc finding them partciularly suited to low, rangy houses. Ranch (It-sign asbestos arc applied with both a headlap and a sidelap. For the utmost in security, they are attached with storm anchors as well as nails.

Manufacturers report the new asbestos shingles hnve all the durability and protective qualities of older styles. Because of their large size and easy application, they can be put on at less cost than some of the other styles. Another easily applied asbestos shingle is the stylo known as "strip." Each unit gives the coverage of from three to five individual shingles. When in pjace, the appearance is that of individually applied American method shingles.

By DEI.OS sannr I'nited 1'resn Science; Editor NEW YORK Parents can he absolutely positive that some children who have been vacillated with the Salk anti-polio vaccine will coming down with polio all summer long.

But this won't mean that the vaccine failed to protect them from polio or that the vaccine gave them polio. It has to happen because of the way polio viruses behave inside the human body and the way in which body's "im- numiologtcal cluMiiistry" behaves. Take the behavior of the viruses first. They get into the body, usually through tho mouth. But nothing happens nt once, because there are not enough viruses to do anything.

Before anything happen, tin; invading viruses must multiply their numbers many fold. That multiplying usually goes on in the'gastro-iiUcsliiuil tract. It tukes time. The time it takes is called the "incubation 1 It is usually 10 to .14 dnys. But there arc proven cases on record in which it was as short as four days mid as long ns 30.

Viruses are tricky--yon can't expect them to follow a rule. Now suppose child has polio viruses incubating in him. The jloctor with the vaccinating needle can't possible tell because the viruses are not yet in sufficient numbers to produce any sign of illness. Nor can the vaccine get his immunlologicdl chemistry functioning in high gear soon enough to protect him from the viruses which are being incubated. Tlie reason it can't is simply that it doesn't work that fast in response to a vaceltie-any vaccine.

The immuniological chemistry of the body is Ihnt part of the blood-making and blood-maintaining chemistry which produce and keep in the blood stream the tiny particles called anti-bodies which make us immune to infectious diseases which we have und from which we have recovered. The purpose of a vaccine is to do the same thing as the illness would have but without any of the risks of the illness. It, too, stimulates this chemistry into producing enough potent and lusting antibodies to protect the body from an invasion of the disease-causing virus or other infecting agents for which it is specific. But the first "shot" of the Salic anti-polio vaccine produces comparatively few (inlibodics not nearly enough to turn bni-k an invasion of live viruses into the blood stream. It mainly "si'ts up" the immuniological chemistry, ns a factory is tooled up.

The si-eond "shot" of vnccine xels the tooled- up factory into production, and thin production mounts steadily toward a peak which takes nt least several weeks and may take longer. Returning to the viruses incubating secretly in the child who has just received the first "shot" of the Salic viruses haven't, been touched because thcv are not yet in the blood That is the "barrier" which they must cross in order to get to the central nervous system and cause paralytic polio by attacking nerve cells. If th blood stream is swarming with antibodies against them, they won't get across the barrier when the incubation period i.i over ond their numbers are large enough for the try. But the blood stream won't be swarming with the antibodies on the basis of one "shot" of vaccine the child already had had a case of polio caused by the same type of virus which arc Incubating that had been so light it had passed without being noticed. Such cases as this hypothetical one are bound to happen because of the nature of the polio viruses.
