Although children of pre-school age are in the majority to benefit from the treatment facilities of the Cerebral Palsy Center, Bergen County, on No. Van Dien Ave. in Ridgewood, young adults in the county are also helped through a program of socialization, recreation and pre-vocational training which is being developed as part of the Center’s activity.

There is naturally much interest on the part of high school pupils regarding the new time schedule at the Ramsey High School. Pupils will be on one of two schedules. One group will have a first class at 8:10 and will be dismissed at 2:51; the other group will begin at 8:50 and stay until 3:37. A seven- period day is provided for each group and due to the overlapping of the two schedules, many rooms will be used for eight periods during the day.
The young adults have organized, taking as their name the Handicraft Guild. This was their choice as it symbolized the activities they are learning as part of their own re- haititation program. The venture, begun originally to provide hobbies and recreation, may prove to be of value in a financial way later. The club originally started in February,1950 when six of the handicapped teenagers met at the home of Mrs. Henry A. Baer in River Edge, N. J.
Mrs . Richard Ernst of River Edge and Mrs. James Walsh, of Teaneck, members of the Bergen County Cerebral Palsy League became advisors to the group and interested others in assisting in the venture, particularly the Bergen County Auxiliaries, Veterans of Foreign Wars who adopted the group as an annual project, providing funds to purchase equipment for an arts and crafts program. The Bergen County Tuberculosis and Health Association through its rehabilitation director, Mrs. Marion G. Moore, offered professional guidance in establishing a definite program, and secured a teacher for the group.
In six months the group became so large that it began to hold its meetings in the club- room of the Caldrony-Klaiber Post 876, Veterans of Foreign Wars in River Edge, and when the Center opened in March of1951 its activities were transferred there. Meeting once a month at first, then twice, the
Guild plans to meet on two nights a week when its expanded program begins in Sept.
At that time, Mr. Harry Thomson of North Arlington, a graduate of Montclair State Teachers College, who has done a great deal of work in practical arts and crafts, wlil be in charge of a handicraft program. Work in copper and aluminum foil, rug -weaving, leather tooling, plastics and ceramics will be done. Instruction in sewing will be available through the courtesy of the Singer Sewing Machine Company one night a week, and an experienced teacher will be on hand to offer basic reading writing and arithmetic to those who have not been able to attend schol in earlier years.
One of the features o f the Chestnut Ridge Stables Horse Show in Ho-Ho-Kus on Sept. 15 and 16 will be a booth staffed by the Guild to show samples of the work they have been doing this past year, not for sale, but to demonstrate how handicapped persons can become a part of the regular life of the county and community in which they live.
The club now has a membership of 25 boys and girls coming from all corners of the county and the membership isincreasing rapidly. It is not limited to the cerebral palsied, but also includes young adults who have through accident or illness been deprived of some of the opportunities enjoyed by their contemporaries.

Congestion in the lunchroom will be relieved by the new schedule which provides four lunch periods instead of three. The first lunch begins at 11:26 and the last closes at 1:19. Lunch periods are twenty- eight minutes long when passing time is included.
All Ramsey pupils have been scheduled to attend the early class beginning at 8:10. Attendance of pupils from other districts has been worked out by Principal Guy W. Moore according to the necessities of transportation.
Secretaries in the Ramsey High School, Miss Edna Woj- ciechowski, Mrs. M a d e l i n e Hazen and Mrs. Mildred Heller have ialled “enough!” Curious pupils who just ran’t wait to find out what homeroom they are in and which teacher they will have for what subject use up too much valuable office time the last few days before school opens with irrelevant requests for information which will be their’s on the first day of school. Please, please, pupils exercise your strong wills and your inculcated thoughtfulness and consideration and wait till school opens to learn the answers.

Phone Company Seeks Rehearing For Higher Rate To Subscribers
The New Jersey Bell Telephone Company asked the State Public Utility Commission on Wednesday, August 29, for a rehearing on its application for increased telephone rates. The commission rejected the company’s application on August 16.
In its original petition for higher telephone rates, filed in April, 1950, the c o m p a n y sought a 10-cent monthly rise in residential party line rates, and 15 cents on residence individual line rates, a 25-eent rise in monthly business rates, a 10-cent local coin box charge, and upward adjustments in toll charges.
In asking for a rehearing of its application, the company asked permission to present evidence on “the continuing and growing impact of inflation upon its operations.” The company also called upon the PUC “to recognize and arrest such impact by finding and determining a proper and adequate rate base which fully re
flects the present fair value of the company’s property.”
In a seven-point petition filed with the board at 10 a.m. in Trenton, the company stressed the “ imminence of the imposition of higher tax rates by Congress and the continuing increase in other elements of cost.”
The company also insisted that it had placed before the board competent and relevant evidence to form a rate base predicated on the present day fair value of company property. Such evidence, the company said, has been accepted and used by courts and commissions for many years in determining fair value rate bases.
Korea Clothes Drive Brings Good Results
Town chairman K e n p e t h Johnson of the Clothing for Korea drive, announces that he is gratified by the response of local residents in donating warm, clean c 1 ot h i n g and blankets. This is being packed in boxes by local volunteer firemen ready for shipment.
Although still short of the quota, it is felt many people
are away on vacation. Townspeople are urged, however, to bring their donations to the firehouse as soon as possible. Instead of waiting to find time to thoroughly search cosets and attics for all suitable articles, it is suggested donations be made from time to time to facilitate packing. A wire basket is always available outside the firehouse when the building is not open.

AFL Breaks With Farm Agencies; Gen. Eisenhower Reports on Europe
AFL BREAKS TIES— Farmers and farm workers across the nation were pondering the sudden action of the American Federation of Labor obviously aimed at breaking off its heretofore friendly relations with the American Farm Bureau Federation and the National Grange.
Meeting at Montreal, Canada, the AFL’s executive council issued a statement which charged that the labor organization could no longer “ appease” these farm groups because they had swung “ to the side of reaction” in national affairs.
“ In fact, on economic issues of vital concern to the national welfare,” the statement said, “ it has become difficult to discern any major difference between the policy of the American Farm Bureau Federation and the National Grange on the one hand, and that of the National Association of Manufacturers and the U. S. Chamber of Commerce on the other.”
The AFL then pointed out that “ labor cannot go on indefinitely supporting legislation beneficial to farmers while their organizations maintain a policy of seeking punitive anti-labor legislation.”
The AFL made it clear that it was disappointed in the action of the farm groups in teaming up with “ big business” representatives to defeat the enactment of effective anti-inflation controls. This would seem to be the opening shot in a civil war between two big segments of the nation’ s economy.
REPORT ON EUROPE — One of the clearest reports the home townsof the country have received on western Europe’s growing strength was made last week by a senate subcommittee after a 14-day visit with Gen. Dwight Eisenhower.
The committee reported Eisenhower as saying “ it is almost ridiculous for us to be talking in terms of fright and hysteria” in the face of the free world’s overwhelming strength.
T h e committee reported: (1) Eisenhower’ sheadquarters is dissatisfied with the fact that western Europe has increased its armed forces only 20 per cent since the Korean war began. (They have promised a 75 per cent increase next year); (2) Spain and Yugoslavia should be brought into the “ master plans” for defense of Europe; (3) Once European military build-up
is complete, it will be possible "to begin the gradual withdrawal of U. S. forces” ; (4) There is dissatisfaction among U.S. field representatives at the “ multiheaded command” in Washington over political, economic, and military operations; (5) It will cost about $1,000,000,000 in France alone to erect the “ overhead" for combat operations; (6) Without U.S. leadership Europe by now might have fallen before Communism; (7) Economic aid must be “ primarily for the purpose of assisting friendly countries to strengthen their individual and collective defenses” ; (8) It is most important that east-west trade shall not be permitted to increase the war potential of the Soviet Union.
RED BUILD-UP — While Allied and Communist representatives negotiate a cease-fire at Kaesong, with increasing prospects for success, the Reds have taken the opportunity to carry out a big military build-up in Korea.
Observers are now wondering if the Communists are planning a new offensive if the Kaesong armistice talks collapse, or are they pouring in troops merely to strengthen the hand of their negotiators?
Many are inclined to belive it means a new offensive. They point out that unusually heavy truck traffic through North Korea toward the front, started at the first mention of armistice talks late in June and continued through mid-July.
A CITY COMES BACK— Nearly 17 million tons of mud, muck anddebris have been shoveled aside in Kansas City as the flood-ravaged v a l l e y s of Missouri continue to make one of the nation’ s most remarkable comebacks.
Just three weeks after the flood waters had ebbed from the Kansas City stock- yards, a consignment of shorthorn cattle pounded through the wooden pens to mark the reopening of the nation’s second largest livestock market.
Three major packing plants a r e slaughtering again and more than 120 business firms have returned to offices evacuated during the flood. Although many families are still in dire need of relief and assistance, nearly 30,000 employees have returned to jobs washed out by the mid-July flood.
Throughout the flood-stricken area, it’ s been back to business for grain elevators, flour mills, farm machinery concerns, transfer companies, sheet metal works, motor parts firms, tractor and equipment companies, paint manufacturers, milling companies, a creamery and dairy supply company, soap manufacturers and lumber companies.
It has been a wonderful story of a city fighting its way back.

Ignatz at Inquest______H. I. Phillips_______
—Now then, where are we?• A.—I think we’re all tied up
and the heat is on me as usual Also somebody is stealing the signals.
Q.—Very well. Do you or do you not believe baseball players need protection by the United States Congress?
A.—The way things are going there is no telling who will be called in next to help a player. I’ve seen everybody else called in from the bullpen to help me this week except a Congressman, and now they’re waving for him.
Q.—Do you consider baseball a business?
A.—It has everything business has except the businessmen’s $1.50 lunch.
Q.—Would you call it a violation of the anti-trust laws?
A.—No. It has to sell frankfurters at the same price as others.
Q.—You misunderstand. I am not considering hot dogs in connection with baseball.
A.—Baseball ain’t baseball without ’em, mister.
* • •Q.—Doesn’t the reserve clause
prevent a player from leaving the minors and bettering himself?
A.—All I know is a pitcher don’ t always better himself by getting out of the minors and joining the majors. Suppose he has to meet the Yanks the first week! 1
* * *Q.—Bnt is it not an unfair
practice to let one big-league club keep a good player on a farm team for years when he might well get a job with another club?
A.—Yes and no.Q.—What do you mean yes
and no?A.—This Is a tight situation
and I am mixing up fast stuffwith my slow stuff.
Q.—Do you not believe there should be a free labor market in baseball as anywhere else?
A.—I get in and out of the box so often that if there was a free labor market I wouldn’t even make the distance from the bullpen to the mound sometimes.Q.—But doesn’t the very spirit of
fair play call for a competitive market in which all talent can engage?
A.—The last time I was called in to save a game, I pitched only two balls before the manager, two coaches, the whole infield and four guys I didn’t recognize were surrounding me and trying to save it, too. If that ain’t free labor competition, what is?
Q.—Do you believe something should be done about cartels?
A.—No. If you get a cartel the thing to do is lay off and let nature heal it.
* * •
Q.—Do you think it Is right to trade players like dumb oxen?
A.—I object to that word “ dumb.” Some oxen in baseball are as smart as oxen anywhere.
Q,—What is your opinion of Leo Durocher?
A.—Why drag Leo into this?Q.—It’ s custom to drag Leo into
anything. Answer the question.A.—I think if he had got Laraine
Day onto video 11 games sooner the Giants would be out ahead now.
• • •Q.—Talent and ability are every
thing in the great American game. No game can be won without these qualities, can it?
A.—Are you kiddin’ ? Didn’t you hear about how Casey Stengel won that one from the White Sox last week with nothing but two thumbs, a monkey wrench and a lot of confidence in rain?INFLATION MOTHER GOOSE

9 Reports from midwest's great farm belt indicate farm implement market has hit a slump in last 60 days that is causing Main Street retailers considerable worry. It is more than seasonal sales Slump. IT'S PATTERN DEVELOPS AFTER BIGGEST FARM EQUIPMENT BUYING SPREE IN NATION'S FARM HISTORY. MANUFACTURERS SOLD NEARLY $2 BILLION WORTH OF FARM MACHINERY YEARLY FOR PAST THREE YEARS.9 Total farmer investment in tools and machines jumped from $6 billion in 1946 to over $14 billion at start of 1951. Farmers own 4,000,000tractors today, more than double number a decade ago; 400,000 mechanical corn pickers, compared with 120,000 ten years ago; and 700,000 grain combines, triple total of 10 years back.
9 Main Street's retail merchants give several reason for slump pattern: Banks tightening up on credit, prices too high, and some areas oversold.JULY HOME EXPENDITURES OFF
9 Credit restrictions on home building began to hurt the industry during July, resulting in 30 per cent reduction in home building from same month of last year. Total value of new construction work in July, however, rose about 3 per cent from June. There was continued decline in construction of social and recreational facilities, restaurants and garages.WHEAT SUPPORT PRICE
9 Of interest to grain elevators and dealers in wheat: department of agriculture has announcedthe wheat support price at a national average of $2.18 per bushel for the 1951 crop. Last year's average was $1.99 per bushel. The 1951 supportprice is 90 per cent of parity at the beginning of the marketing year July 1. July 1 parity is $2.42 per bushel. For the same date last year, parity was $2.21 per bushel.
9 Homebuilding construction for private residences in June was 23 per cent under June 1950, although all expenditures in new construction totaled $2,700,000, an increase of 6 per cent over May. Seasonal expansion in highway construction accounted for a large part of the $50,000,000 increase in public construction.
9 Outlook for August is for bargain sales on the part of retail merchants with some sizeable price cutting. Reason is laggard consumer buying and continued high inventories. Concensus in Washington is that if a cease fire order is effected in Korea, further decline in farm prices may result. Last-minute opinion is that taxes will be raised despite what may happen in Korea, and part may apply to this year's income.

Floors Can Be Repaired InexpensivelyBy Ertta Haley
OLD floors are a real problem, as anyone can tell you who has
lived with them. First of all, they don’t look nice, no matter how lovely your furnishings. Second, they may offer any number of discomforts, such as snagging you while you walk, squeaking, and innumerable cleaning problems.
There are many ways to fix old floors which offer problems, and they may cost but little. Much of the work does not have to be professional as long as one is patient and does it carefully.
What should be done to the floors depends greatly upon the type of house and furnishings you have as well as the purpose of the room in which the floors need attention.
Some floors may just be worn, and as such need care which the homemaker can give to bring them to life again. It’s surprising what paint or varnish or a few lovely rugs used discretely can do to an old floor. It may even be that a coat or two of wax with some polishing can renovate the floor completely.Treat Old Oak or Soft Wood Floors Accordingly
If you have oak flooring in your home, no matter how old, how battered or how wide the cracks between the boards, try to retain the original type of flooring. It may be necessary to relay part of a very bad floor of ̂this type with new
Keep linoleum waxed, polished . . .board to close up bad cracks. Use old lumber for this, if at all possible so that it will match the original floor.
Old oak floors which are badly marred can be replaced, stained and then waxed once a month with an electric polisher. If you like an antique finish, stain after replaning.
All wood floors will look better when they’re waxed at least once a month, and they’re the kind of floors which people notice -when they walk into the room. Soil from waxed floors can be removed by going over the floor with a clean damp cloth dipped lightly in turpentine or liquid polish and cleaner. The floor should be allowed to dry before polish is applied.
Soft, wood floors, found frequently in old homes of the Colonial and cottage type may also be replaned and waxed for a new look. If, however, they are in poor condition, they may be painted in dark green, maroon, brown, blue or black.
If they are being painted for the first time, the floors should be washed with soap and water. Go over them with a cloth dipped in benzine to remove grease. Floors which have been painted before should have the old finish removed with paint remover.
When they have been waxed previously, and you want to paint them, take off old wax with gasoline jr steel wool. Denatured alcohol will remove old shellac. These are Inflammable materials and should not be used near a flame.
Old painted floors can also be spattered for good effect. The floor is painted green, brown or black, and while the paint is still damp, use red, green or white paint with a stiff whisk broom attached to a long handle. This will give a salt- and-pepper effect.
Easy Floor Cleaning
Milady can stay as crisp and clean as her chintz apron while doing a grubby chore like mopping if she uses this new sponge mop which has a self-wringing attachment. The mop will absorb up to twenty times its own weight in water.
Floors Beyond Repair Need Linoleum
If the floors are in such bad shape that they cannot be repaired, or if the expense is too great, it is best to use linoleum, especially in halls, bathrooms, children’s rooms, game rooms or kitchens. A monotone linoleum can be used as a base for scatter rugs in any of these rooms.
Linoleum will wear longer if it is kept waxed, whether it is of the inlaid type or printed type. Selfpolishing waxes are good because they do not have to be shined.
For the linoleum floor In the kitchen, sweep daily with a soft broom and wipe spilled foods as quickly as possible. For weekly or semi-weekly cleaning, use a damp mop wrung out very dry. When the linoleum needs more cleaning, use a mop wrung out in mild soap suds. All strong powders should be avoided, as should coarse brushes.
It’ s not wise to flood the linoleum covering with water, as this may injure the covering. Rinse and dry thoroughly and quickly. When dry, apply a new coat of liquid or selfpolishing wax.
In rooms other than the kitchen, linoleum can be cleaned daily with an un-oiled mop. Sweep with a soft broom for weekly cleaning, and when soiled clean and re-wax as you do the kitchen linoleum.
and rugs free from all dirt and grit. . .Carpet Floors For Easy Solution
When floors are bad and linoleum cannot be used, carpeting is a good
solution as it not only gives a luxurious look but also hides all sorts of flooring defects. Before carpeting, make certain that the floor is even and that all squeaky boards are nailed in place so the squeaks are eliminated.
Linings or pads should be used to protect the carpeting, as well as to cushion the rug when it’s in use. You’ll get lots more wear from the rug if you have a pad. Many of these are decidedly inexpensive.
There’ s a tendency today to carpet the entire house or apartment in the same colored rug. For this reason, something neutral should be selected as neutral beige or gray. If you desire to use some of the other shades, and your furnishings go with them, select green, maroon or others.
Lighter rugs are preferred currently to the darker ones, but they are more perishable, too. If you live in a clean community, light colored rugs are certain to hold up, but if there is soot, it would be wiser to invest in the darker colors.
Go over the rugs with a carpet sweeper or a vacuum cleaner every day or several times a week to keep the dirt from grinding into the pile where it may cut and injure the rug. Take care of spots as quickly as they appear, and between professional cleanings give the rug a quick brightening with one of the rug powders or cleaners. It will bring results.
On the days you do a thorough cleaning, go over every inch of the rugs with a vacuum cleaner. Make certain the bag or tank is empty when you start, and that the brushes are clean so that you can get the most thorough and efficient service from the vacuum.
Select good but moderately priced carpeting. If rugs are too cheap they do not wear well and never look nice. If you purchase too expensive rugs it may be wasteful to change the color scheme once it’ s necessary.Use Small Rugs For Accent
If you do not want to go to the expense of large rugs or wall-to- wall carpeting to solve problem floors, something can possibly be done with small rugs. One way has already been suggested: the use of a monotone linoleum with scatter rugs on top of that for accent.
Hooked rugs can be made at home, and these may be made larger than you ordinarily do, if you want to cover more of the floor. They go well with American Provincial furnishings.
Another solution lies In sewing together a number of small shaggy rugs which will cover a good deal of the floor and thus hide defects.
Small woven rugs can be attached and used in hallways to solve floor problems.
Fashion FlashesLook for red velvet trimmings on
coats for Fall and Winter. This bright touch is ideal for heavy fleece in winter’s colors such as gray, navy and black.
Shawl collars and large cuffs are the main interest in some of the early winter coats that have an absence of fur for trimming. Back again after an absence of several years is the interesting combination of cinnamon and brown ih materials.
Diagonal wrappings on skirts are a new feature on the fashion horizon. These slim the hips, especially when they’re on the skirt of a suit, and they’re very attractive with the new shorter jackets.
When shopping for a fur coat, you’ll find that the forty inch length is very popular and figure flattering. This length gives freedom and graceful movement not only to the coat but the clothes you wear underneath it
