New Beauty for Window Shades
That rose-covered cottage is now a reality, with roses climbing
inside too, on the window shades! Shown here is Victorian harmony
at its best, with hand-decorated window shades enhancing a corner
of this cozy apartment, the New York home of Pegeen and Ed Fitz
gerald, known to radio listeners as “The Fitzgeralds.” Shades of deep
red and green are blended with fanciful cupids shooting arrows at
pretty white doves. The decorator added a dozen or two of costume
roses to the lace curtains as a final touch.
U. S. Metal Reserves
Are Dwindling
Copper pennies, now rapidly re
placing the wartime substitutes,
may not be the comomn coins a
generation from now. The reason
is that the U. S. may run out of
copper by then.
Elmer Pehrson. chief of the eco
nomics and statistics service of
the Bureau of Mines estimates
that, on the basis of the country’s
rate of consumption of copper for
the five years before the war, cop
per reserves will only last another
33 years. If there aren’t enough
coper pennies then, the zinc coat
ed coins that were used during the
war won’t be the answer, because
the life of zinc reserves is listed
as only 18 years.
Mr. Pehrson warns that some
other metals are going to run out
before copper and zinc. Bureau of
Mines estimates place reserves oi
mercury at only two years; tung
sten and antimony, three years;
and lead, 11 years.
