BEAUTIFUL DISTRICT COURT IS VERDICT Painters Win Many Compliments on CWA Paint Job in the Court House "The most beautiful district court room in Nebraska." That's the general verdict of the judges and attorneys who have seen Platte county's district court room since the members of the Master Painters' association and their helpers recently completed the repainting and revarnishing of the court house as a CWA project. ISot only have the painters received many compliments on the appearance of the court room, but also on the color combinations used and the quality of work done in the offices and corridors throughout the entire building.

While the county furnished the materials and the CWA paid for the labor, the master painters were given a free rein to select the color combinations and decorative designs, and they achieved results that have won merited commen-- dation of their craftsmanship from those who have seen the completed job. Throughout the building the color effects and designs are in excellent taste. There are no airplanes adorning the ceiling of th district court room, such as Kearney painters sought to paint in the Buffalo county court house as emblems of speedy justice. Rather. tne painters here adhered basically to the original decorative design of the court room, but amplified it in a most suitable manner and changed the color scheme completely, enhancing the beauty of the room with a harmonious combination of various shades of cafe au lait feoffee old rose and green.

Walls of the court room to a height of about six feet from the floor had previously been unpaint-ed. Ahat was then an area of white plaster that had become soiled through the years is now attractively done in a deep cafe au lait shade in an artificial stone design while the walls above are paneled in lighter shades The moulding plaster cornice around the top of the walls has been deftly done in old rose, ivory and green, and the ornamental frieze on the ceiling is in old rose, highlighted with ivory. In the corridors throughout the building, a warm cream color was used on the walls and ivory on the ceiling, and in the various offices the ceilings were done in ivory and the walls in a pastel green shade. The pilasters in the main corridors were enameled and mottled the ornamental moulding plaster was glaz- effectd "iPed t0 giVe a Cost Less in Comparative ficm-ae Mac Betterton. association, who vru as ioreman on the job, show that the portion of the court house renovation project which was allotted to the painters cost substantially less in proportion to the work done than did the original painting job done by outside contractors at the time the court house was built.

Under the original contracts when the building was built, varnishing of the woodwork cost $2178 and kalsomining the walls on the'first second and third floors, $4,000 or a total of $6,278. The wall and ceilings in the basement and on the fourth floor, and the walls of the elevator shaft were neither kalso-mmed nor painted at that time. Under the CWA job recently finished, the cost to the county of materials for the painting and varnishing was $1,142.61 and the labor cost to the CWA was $6,052.45 a total of $7,195.06. But this included not only one coat of oil sizing and two coats of washable oil paint on all the walls and ceilings on all four floors and in the elevator shaft, (with exception of the two rooms used by the welfare denart- ment in the basement which were not painted because Mrs. Johnson and her assistants were so busy with relief work that they could not vacate their quarters temporarily) but also cleaning and varnishing, two coats rubbed down, all the woodwork and all the desks, tables, chairs and other wood furniture in the building.

The work on the furniture alone represented about of the CWA labor cost and $100 of the material cost. Mr. Betterton Approximately 25 more wall space was painted in this jab than was kalsomined in the original job at item which should be taken into consideration, also, in a comparison of costs. The bill for materials which the painters procured for the county at wholesale cost, included about $60 worth of oil used on the floors, a phase of the project which the painters did not handle. On the other hand, the carpenters' CWA labor in erecting scaffold in the court room, and a small item for rental of lumber used in that scaffold, are not included in the expense items, as he computed them because they were outside of the painters' work.

Thus, if the necessary reconciliation were made to secure a fair comparison, the figures would show that the original kalsomine and varnish job cost substantially more than did the equivalent part of the new paint and varnish job as done under the CWA project. The painters did their work in 5,503 man-hours, which Mr. Betterton points out is 247 hours less than had been estimated would be required when the project was launched.

next Tuesday to perfect plans for the system of subsistence gardens thev are to have this spring, Mrs. E. W. John- son, county welfare worker, announced today. The call for the mas3 meeting of all interested in the garden project was decided upon at a conference last night attended by George S.

Reeder, chairman of the county FERA committee and Mrs. Johnson, as FERA representatives; Supervisor Walter Loseke, as a member of the county board of supervisors; Councilmen Harry Lohr and Louis Mimick, representing the city council; Bud Minor, as business manager of the Unemployed Men's council, and Prof. Carl Schmidt, science instructor at the high school. Need of procuring additional ground for gardens for families eligible to federal emergency relief and what manner of supervision should be provided were the chief topics discussed at the conference. Councilman Mimick and Bud Minor were appointed as a committee to ascertain what additional tracts suitable for gardens could be procured and they hope to be ready to report at the general meeting Tues day night.

It was also decided that, in addition to procuring enough ground for individual gardens for the families that would be able to tend their own tracts, it would! be advisable, if possible, to get a 10-acre tract for a large garden to raise vegetables, chiefly potatoes, for those families that because of illness or other good reason would not tend their own gardens. This plan can be put into effect if the FERA will authorize assignment of FERA labor to tend the big garden, thus making it a separate FERA work-relief project. Supervision of all the gardens for which government seed is provided is required by the FERA. A suggested plan for having this supervision exercieed by a voluntary committee, to be composed chiefly of representatives of the gardeners themselves, wa; favorably considered last night but not definitely adopted. The purpose cf the general meeting Tuesday night will be to ascertain definitely how many of the families do not now have ground for their gardens; to allot such ad ditional tract? may be procured in the meantime, and to discuss plans for the individual and community" gardens.

Representatives of the FERA organization will preside. Similar meetings of the gardening groups in other towns in the county will be held soon.
