DEVICE TO INTERCEPT GREASE IS STRESSED

The fact that all kitchens in Army camps and Naval training stations are equipped with grease interceptors has served to focus attention anew on the practical usefulness of this device. Grease interceptors prevent clogging of household drainage lines and sewer with grease. a grease interceptor is the best assurance that household waste lines and municipal sewer pipes will remain open. By preventing the clogging of waste lines, grease interceptors provide protection against flooding of floors due to the stopping of the pipes. Stopped up pipes in the walls or under the floors are nearly always difficult and expensive to locate. A grease interceptor may be installed on the floor below the sink| or in the basement underneath the kitchen, which ever is most convenfent. In the case or rural or suburban homes with their own water systems and septic tanks, the use of grease interceptors is particularly important because grease interferes with the action of bacteria in septic tanks.

The new home of Dr. C. B. LaDine, at 4221 E. 35th St, and built by M. G. Gerdenich is nearing completion in Forest Manor.

All brick, the house is in Colonial design and is one of the larger homes to be built here this year. Beyond the huge pillars which form the entrance is a large foyer which has a living room to the right, a bedroom to the left and the stairway leading to the spacious second floor. The living room, bright from the six large windows, is decorated in tan paper and features a fireplace trimmed in white wood and natural marble. A wide glass door leads to the screened-in porch which is on the east end of the house.

Double Nests of Windows

The dining room, located between the living room and kitchen is in formal tan paper with an off-white

ling. The kitchen has yellow walls and is illuminated by double nests of windows and a large glass door leading to the rear yard. The floor, is in tan linoleum with blue trim and built-ins are white with red trim. Worktables have blue tops and an indirect light is above the deep double sink. Decorative shelves are hung in several corners. The lavatory, separating the kitchen from the downtown bedroom is long and wide with full length mirrors and a dressing table. On the second floor, directly above the living room is a large recreation room with a stone fireplace reaching to the off-white ceiling. Wallpaper is Williamsburg Colonial and there are two large closets, one of which is lined with shelves. Colonial paper is also used in the upstairs hall which rings around

FHA TO SPEED WORK IN STATE

More Homes for Defense Workers Likely to Be Needed Soon.

Steps must be taken immediately to provide more rental housing quarters for defense workers in certain Indiana areas, R. Earl Peters, State FHA administrator, said today. Mr. Peters said that the FHA program here is to be stepped up to

industry homes. The Indiana office has been given authority to base its decisions in accordance with changes occurring in the supply and demand. “It is hardly necessary to point out that developments in the past week will bring an absolute demand for adequate housing for many defense workers,” he said. “The stage of experimenting, if it may be termed that, Is past. “This is definitely a time for action with no obstacles ‘allowed to hinder the critical necessity for action. And, this includes adequate housing for the men in overalls in the defense industries who are be-

with a large closet papered to match. \ The two bedrooms upstairs are done in green and in blue.

The bathroom is very large and furnished with a glass dressing table, mirrored walls and black tile. There is a tub-shower combination with a pink swan figure inlaid above the tub. Noticeable about the new house are the large closets and livibility of design. The garage which is connected has room for two cars and storage space

Times Special NEW YORK, Dec. 12.—Standardization of building products and

practices in the period after the war is urged today by the Architectural Forum magazine in the second article of its series on the general subject of “Buildings Post-War Pattern.” This series is designed to “give meaning and direction to the changes that are now taking place, and those that will continue to take place in the future.” Pointing out in the article that standardization does not imply cessation of developments, the magazine declares that because building’s “problems are so unique and its tasks so complex, it is important that we stop condemning standardization for what it is not and begin to recognize and exploit its advantages for what they are.”

Greater Variety Is Aim

The object of standardization, the article contends, is the better and more economical satisfaction: of human needs—better products and services more easily combined with one another, easier to distribute, easier to duplicate, repair, or replace, suited to a wider variety of applications and designed to satisfy pre-determined needs. _ “True standardization results in greater, rather than less variety; acceleration, rather than cessation
