(International Soundphoto) Seeks Low Cost Housing For Aged WASHINGTON (INS) — Feder- , al Housing Commissioner Norman P. Mason says private enterprise should provide the answer to the growing problem of housing for the aged. -——— Mason alluded in a recent speech to proposals pending in congress to provide a new Public Housing program to make available lowrent quarters for older folks. The head of the Federal Housing Administration noted that persons over 65 have difficulty arranging housing credit. Yet he pointed-out that America’s population of elderly folks is growing by leaps and bounds. He said: “Perhaps soundness of financing can be assured by an arrangement allowing children to help their parents by guaranteeing mortgage payments — or nonprofit organizations such as church, labor and fraternal groups could sponsor projects of suitable and attractive homes. "We do believe that some sort of program should be provided to make housing for the aged a project for private industry — not just a bigger public housing program.”

County Agent's > Column 0 » ; 4 Light Laying Houses Purdue University’s poultry ex- : ens ion marketing specialist, M. L Wilson, has reported that hens will lay more eggs this winter if electric lights are left On in the laying houses.. Wilson says the lights wil extend the hen's working day and stimulate the egg laying function. The greatest value from lights comes from a change in distribution of egg production to seasons of higher prices, rather than in a greater yield. Prices of eggs usually go up about 10 percent during fall and winter months.'Since the number o. layers on farms is down, the supply of eggs is expected to be even less for the next several weeks. Under favorable management conditions, electric lights in the laying house will increase egg production during the fall and winter by 2v to 30 percent. Four systems for lighting Ben houses are used today—all are equally advantageous Morning lights are the most common system of artificial lighting. Under the method an automatic timing clock turns-tights'"on and off as desired by the poultryman. bights are generally turned on at about 6 A. M. from the first week of September untU December. When days grow shorter in December the lights should be turned on as early as 3:30 or 4 a. m- Layers should have about 13 to 14 hours of artificial light each day. A second system is the use of both morning and evening lights. Evening lights, however, will irequirt a dimmer to allow the layers i chance to roost before the lights are turned out. Some poultrymen use a third system where lights are turned on at dusk and used until around 9 p. m. A fourth method is the use of all-night lights “Don’t expect immediate results", Wilson warns. Test show that layers do not react to artificial lighting until after a period of 10 to 14 days. — — Boone Relation FORT HOOD, Tex. (INS) — Capt. Daniel H. Boone of the U.

Knox said: “As leaders for better and more economical housing we will employ the new and startling techniques that are, now discernible, on the industrial horizon and we will carry the mass production of koines to » dominant place in the economy. *The day is gone when we look at the business of mass-produced housing as merely minor improvements on the old carpenter opera-

tions.’’ Knox said the prefabbers now account for about ten percent of all homes produced in the U. S. He declared: “Our job is to capture 20, 40 and ultimately 90 percent of this tremendous field. The only thing that will stadd in the way of this goal in the next ten or 20 years is lack of vigorous action and imaginative thinking on our own part.”

Coincidences Save Boy From Drowning Series Os Events Saves Infant Boy _JNDIANABOLi'S (INS) —The oddz against the series of coincidence thabiccount for 20-month-old Ralph Kemp being alive today are too staggering to consider. Ralph is alive because: 1. life brother, eight-year-old James, lost no time running for help when Ralph fell through the ice on Buck Creek in Indianapolis. 2. His mother. Mrs. Robert I. Kemp, remembered she had wrapped a red scarf around her infant son and crashed through the thin ice up to her armpits when she spotted the blotch of color. 3. Motorist Clarence E. Weaver, who 36 years ago saved a boyhood companion from drowning at the same spot, happened along and knew how to give artificial respiration. Weaver was attracted to the scene by the crying of young James who sobbed, “My little brother has drowned." The driver took the seemingly lifeless boy from the arms of the disconsolate mother. Artificial respiration seemed to fail, and Weaver carried the boy toward the house to await the police emergency squad he had sent the distraught mother to summon. On the way to Uie house. Weaver felt a faint heartbeat and he stripped the child’s iced clothing and

renewed, artificial respiration. Within minutes, the child was crying. The doctor and ambulance arrived and pronounced Ralph recovered aud out of danger.
