Often quite simple tricks in dec- orating will malt: an oddly-moped or otherwise difficult room appear really attractive. Mixing or match- ing pamts and wall papers is one way. For instance, a long, plain wall space may be broken up with panel of o, handsome figured paper, used as a background for a particu- larly choice piece of furniture. Also an awkward alcove o! a plain papered or painted room done in a correlated, rather splashy paper would be especially effective.

Statements Later

‘Today's announcement by m. Howe does not give all the details of the new tire rationing order. The minister did not make public, for instance. the nrlce ceiling which has been established. Departmental spokesmen said the missing in- formation will be ven in a oer les of brief statements to be issued in the immediate future.

Some weeks ago Mr. Howe warn- ed Canadian motorists that their present tires were tihe last they would see until sometime after the war ends. He rte-emphasized that point in the long statement re- vealing lssuanoe of the tire-ration- ing order.

"Canada's rubber shortage is more serious titan ever," said Mr. Howe. “Synthetic production will not begin before many months, and it will not benefit the civilian user. Not a single ounoe or synthetic rubber will be released for the making of civilian tires. or any other civil- ian article.

"Essential vehicles must be kept in service, and the rest of us, until the war is over, must do the best we can with the tires or tubes now in our possession."

Under the rationing order motor
