DETROIT, Nov. !7.—“It is no} longer a question. of coming infla~ tion. Inflation is here. As we have epitomized it at OPA: ‘Inflation|; | ‘comes in 5 per cent increases.’ ” | am So said L. Seth Schnitman, as- | “Sistant price executive .of the Office of Price Administration’s Lumber and Building terial Section, ad- _ dressing the National Association of | Real Estate Boards at its annual convention here, He led a round|®® table of the home building industry on price controls for home building materials.

‘Urge Attention

To Leaky Roofs

LEAKY ROOFS: are like Fifth Columnists. They may do their insidious damage for years before being discovered. When the

leak starts, it may trickle down the underside of’ the roof, instead of falling directly on the ceiling. It continues down in between the walls saturating the umber it touches. Gradually the leak becomes rger and’ admits “more rain water. It then becomes apparent, for the next rain usually drops to the ceiling. The Sosy of repairing damage to ceilings, walls, and household articles® is sometimes more than the cost of a new roof. . “Repair—for Defense” 1s the Slogan of the Federal Housing authority’s newest campaign. Homeowners can comply with it by making roof repairs now, before - labor and materials are needed for more pressing defense uses.

‘There ‘is. also a partially built-in breakfast nook. An example of the liveable detail taken in the designing of the house is the telephone location. The phone - sits on a ledge in a wall “window” so that it is readily accessible either from the breakfast nook or from the hall.

3 Bedrooms Above

There is a lavatory on the first floor. The basement houses the gas furnace, water heater, storage closet, laundry and social room. Steel cased basement windows let in a wealth of sunlight. There are three large bedrooms on the second floor, two baths, a big cedar closet and a master study. The study was designed for desk space with a large window facing the rear yard which brings out the highlights. of .the walls done in knotty pine. The rear bedroom paper is offivory and the others are in equally restful grey-green and blue. Both bath rooms have built-in cupboards as auxiliaries ‘to the extra large linen closet. As in the downstairs the upstairs is well lighted by large windows in all rooms. The master bedroom, also has the added attraction of a railed deck on the porch which can be used for sunbathing or sleeping. . The home will not be open.
