Truman Gives
Lengthy Message
To Congress
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21—(^P)—
President Truman asked Congress
to get behind the sweeping pro
gram which, he said, would pro
mote greater output of lower cost
goods by higher paid workers. He
cautioned against “voices of dis
unity beginning to cry aloud again
must not prevail.”
In the twenty-five thousand
word document, coming for the
first time with both lawmaking
and budget recommendati o n s ,
Truman mixed expressions of opti
mism over business and job po
tentialities with fresh warnings
against inflation and concern over
“major strikes.”
In the budget he pegged govern
ment expenditures for the fiscal
year, beginning next July first, at
$35,860,000,000, only $4,347,000,000
above anticipated income by
drawing the treasury’s cash bal
ance. He said the national debt
actually can be reduced for the
first time in seventeen years from
the estimated $275,000,000,000 next
July to $271,000,000,000 a year
later, and added however that he
can recommend no further tax
cuts at this time.
In the “State and Union” por
tion of his message President Tru
man termed the establishment of
a “fair wage structure the most
serious difficulty” in the path of
reconversion. Expansion, he said,
of most industries and most com
panies with “adequate leeway
within which to grant substan
tial wage increases.”

Young girls this season are striv
ing for that vital, healthy look.
Youth must look wholesome and
the effect can’t be achieved with a
face that looks as if it fell in a
flour barrel or one that has layers
and layers of cake makeup plas
tered on it.
If you want a strawberry-and
cream complexion and cannot
achieve that radiant glow by good
living and proper diet, then per
haps you do need a little makeup.
But make it light. A strawberry
shade should please the blonde,
brunette or redhead. And if a rich,
creamy beige shade of face pow
der is used the makeup job will
look more natural.
There are tricks that can make
a made-up face look unmade-up.
There is one simple one that mod
els use to make their complexions
look pretty. This method of ap
plying makeup requires a little pa
tience but it is worth it in the
long run.
The skin is “iced” first. This is
done by taking some ice and put
ting it in a smooth towel and rub
bing it across the clean skin. Or,
if you prefer, you can dip your
towel in ice water and rub it
across the face until your skin
glows.
Now you can apply a light foun
dation lotion, if you like. Take
your strawberry-shade rouge and
apply it in the three-dot method
on the cheekbones and rub it up
and out to the corner of the eye.
Outline your lips and apply your
lipstick next. Now you are ready
for powder. When you apply your
powder be sure to dust it on in

This method of making up, if
done properly, will make your
complexion look natural. If you

rouge. Mascara is always applied
last.

Household Hints
Leftover bits of vegetables that
may look unappealing will perk
up with eye-appeal if you try
combining them with a white
sauce for a delicious vegetable
scallop. They can also go into
soups or sandwich fillings.
You can save your walls and
wallpaper by giving your little
tot a story that it can draw. The
House That Tib and Tock Built
published by The House of Little
Books tells the story of the tree,
bird, owl and animal and will
keep the small fry fascinated with
crayons for hours.
Colored nylon plastic drinking
tumblers, combs, slide fasteners
and tableware are expected to be
on the market by the end of 1946.
