1 VMM Yf some 7,000 Insured workers in Bloomington and a total of nearly 8,000 In McLean county. Those Not Covered. Not' usually covered by the act are agricultural workers, domestic servants in private homes, certain nonp-ofit organization employes, government employes, minors attending school or working for parents, interstate railroad workers, emergency workers in casual labor, and workers in businesses employing less than eight persons. Cash benefits will be paid workers through the Illinois employment service office of this area. It is located in The Pantagraph's building at 214 North Madison street.

To obtain benefits, the unemployed worker must first register at the employment service office. His claim for benefits also must be filed at the office after July 1. Another requirement Is that the worker must accept a suitable job If one is found for him, that he be able and willing to work and that he put in a waiting period of three weeks. Also to be discussed May 1 Is the federal old age insurance provisions of the social security act. Particular attention will be given to the lump sum payments now being made to persons reaching the age 65 who have worked in covered employment and the payments now being made to widows, families and estates of deceased persons who have been covered by the social security act.

To Mrs. Day At Hospital Injuries More Severe Than First Thought Mrs. George Day, who was badl burned Tuesday while tending a brooder house stove, died at 8 p. m. that evening at St.

Joseph's hos pital. She was the wife of an Alton brakeman. The body was taken to the Mur ray and Carmody funeral home. where the funeral will be held at 1:30 p. m.

Thursday. Burial will be in Bloomington cemetery. The famU ly residence is on Oakland avenue road, across from the sewage dis posal plant. A verdict of "accidental burns was returned at an inquest conducted at 2 p. m.

Wednesday by Coroner Leo Hemmele. The jury further found that death was due to "third degree burns which covered two thirds of her body." Rushed to Hospital. The accident occurred Tuesday morning. While tending the stove used to heat a brooder house for small chickens, Mrs. Day enveloped in flames when her cloth ing caught Are.

Taken to the hospital in a truck by Kingsley Corrington of Normal with Bloomington police assisting. Mrs. Day was at first believed not to be in a critical condition. The burns, however, were more severe than at first appeared. Nine Children Survive.

Before marriage Mrs. Day was Miss Luceretia Daninger, born ia Roodhouse. She was married to Mr. Day at Jacksonville and the couple came to Bloomington to make their home in 191L Surviving besides the husband are nine children, Darrell Eugene, El Paso, the Misses Aline and Mol-lie Louise, both of Indianapolia, Howard, Pontiao and Emily, Georgia Bernice, George Burner, James Raymond and Gerald William, all at home. Also surviving are her father, one sister and one brother, all of Texas.

Senior Girl Scouts To Present Comedy The Senior Girl Scouts of troop 4 will present "Snap Judgment," a comedy in three acts, at 8 p. m. Friday in Fellowship hall of the First Christian church. Joanna Buckles, Elouise Rudat and Helen Reise play leading roles as three sisters working in New York city, who suddenly come into a minor fortune with the stipulation that the girls spend the entire amount in one day. Other parts are to be taken by Margaret Lohnes, Maxine Leb-kuecher, Emma Lou Gibson, Doris Darnell and Beverly Daley.

The play is being directed by Mrs. Bernard Gummerman. WE UA.YS no extravagant claims. Our Berries nust speak for itself. (Demorial Jiomt small reductions rather than a few large ones.

A fireplace, for Instance, would cost around $250 as a minimum. More elaborate ones would run much higher. Most economy is effected, If the fireplace flue can be in the same stack as the heating unit flue. If it could be so arranged that a basement fireplace can be given outlet through the same stack, it would cost about $60 more. l'refabrlcatlon Discussed.

Prefabricated houses houses built in units at the factory and erected quickly on the site have not been given sufficient test to prove their value, the experts agreed. No one knows, it was said, what such a house will be in 20 years. Any home built today, however, is made up largely of prefabricated units. Some of them listed include: Concrete blocks, cement, bricks, plywood, insulation, wallboard, shingles, framing, lumber, piping, wires, furnaces, windows, doors, hardware, plumbing fixtures and kitchen cabinets. It will cost from 7 to 10 percent more to build a brick veneer home here in Bloomington-Normal than a frame home.

A brick veneer house, however, will be most economical in the long run, passing frame construction after about 15 years, according to figures presented. A Bloomington-Normal real es tate man gets 5 percent of the sale price for selling city property and the seller not the buyer pays the bill, it was said in answer to a question. The standard fee for architects is 5 percent of the total building cost for plans and specifications and 3 percent for supervision of building operations. Making Titles Secure. On the subject of complicated ti tles to property, two methods of procedure were recommended.

The buyer can employ an attorney to check over the title to be sure it is in good saleable shape. Any flaws are to be corrected by the seller. The standard fee for such a service here is about $15. Or for about $25 the buyer can insure the title for a period of 30 years, leaving the checking of title to the insuring company. FHA officials recommend that the prospective builder withhold final purchase of his lot until he has had his house plans and location approved for a loan.

It was suggested that the builder take an option on the lot pending final arrangements with the lending agency. In this way, it was pointed out, he gete advantage of the lender's appraisal and general housing experience and avoids the possible disappointment of having a site rejected after he has tied up his funds in it Those participating in the forum Tuesday night minimized the dan ger from termites in this vicinity. The wood eating insects are not numerous and are easily controlled it was said. Methods recommended include: Termite) shields around the foundation which would add $30 to $60 to the cost of a home, depending upon whether galvanized or copper Is used. Treatment of timbers near the foundation.

Poisoning of the ground around the house. Making the basement moisture proof since termites are attracted to moisture. The termite here In the subterranean type which requires dally eon-tact with the ground. When that connection Is broken, his danger to the home owner is past, it was said. Assisting in the forum were John Weldon as real estate adviser, been installed at Bloomington's Municipal airport, further improvements through completing installa tion of runway and ob stacle lighting were arranged Wednesday morning.

The powerful beacon, not to be used until American Airlines institutes its new night service over Bloomington on the Chicao-Dallaj leg next month or early in June, was provided by American. It is mounted on a base atop the hangar, mechanized to revolve six times a minute. IS YA to Be Used. Completion of the other phase of night-marking the 160 acre airport was arranged at a conference Wednesday morning between May or Mark B. Hayes, Lawrence Morn- ingstar, NYA supervisor, Art Car- nahan, port manager and John A.

Cleary, city comptroller. Under the arrangement NYA members will begin the job of completing the ground system of lights May 8. A large portion of the boundary runway and obstacle lighting was installed earlier while the port was under construction. Conduit for these being under ground, it was not then possible to complete this installation because grading operations were not fin ished along the east side and south west corner of the port. These "links" are to be installed by the NYA.

Obstacles to Be Marked. In addition, a number of trees and other obstacles will be marked for the safety of ships that may have occasion to land here. Red lights mark obstacles, white lights show the boundaries of the field and green ones designate the ends of runways. American Airlines are desirous of making the port suitable as an emergency landing point at night as it is the only one available between Joliet and Springfield. American already has a daytime flight between Chicago and Dallas.

The night schedule, it was said, calls for a flight in each direction. Dr. Chapman to Address Grace Church Gathering At a fellowship program at Grace Methodist episcopal church at 7:30 p. m. Wednesday, Mrs.

They Find Expense In Line With Levels In Adjacent Cities BY II. CLAY TATK. Pantagraph Staff Writer. Faculty members at Illinois State Normal university called on the knowledge of experts Tuesday night to shed some light on the building situation in this community. Faced with a housing shortage both homes and apartments the Normal chapter of the American Association of University Profes sors devoted its meeting to a forum on building and they invited representatives of the building industry to answer questions.

Together sat an architect, a con tractor, a material dealer, a real estate man, a finance representative and a FHA supervisor, with a newspaper man acting as forum leader. So Interested were they in the discussion that most of them drove several blocks to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred C. Brunk, 717 avenue, Normal, to continue the discussion when they had to release their meeting place at the Co-Op to another gathering.

Cost of building in Bloomington- Normal, they were told, is in line with costs in other cities. Recent FHA figures show costs in Decatur about the same or a trifle lower than here; in Springfield about the same or a trifle higher; in Centralia almost exactly the same as here; in Champaign 5 percent higher and in Peoria 7 to 10 percent higher. Costs in smaller communities around Bloomington are somewhat lower, it was said, principally be cause of lower labor prices. There is a dearth of (skilled labor, how ever, in these communities, it was said, and workmanship may not be equal to that expected in Bloom- ington-Normal. Lot Proportions Change.

The building trend in Normal, the faculty members were told, will be in the vicinity of Normal avenue or Broadway. The modern trend is for lots 55 to 70 feet wide and 100 to 120 feet deep as compared with the old style of lots 40 feet wide and 200 or more feet deep. Alleys are disappearing, the experts said. Desirable lots in either of these locations would cost around $800 to $900, the faculty members were told. Since both locations "were de scribed as choice building sites, it was pointed out that FHA loans of 80 percent of the total house and lot ccet could be procured by the builder.

Families with an annual Income of $2,200 to $2,500 a year could afford to build a $5,000 to $6,000 home on an $800 or $900 lot, the forum participants decided. Taking a house and lot costing $7,000, the family could expect to get an FHA approved loan of $5,600, leaving $1,400 as the neces sary minimum with which to start Payments Estimated. Monthly payments on this type of. home on a 20 year loan plan would be just under $50, it was said. The payment would include principal.

interest, taxes, fire and hazard in surance and mortgage insurance. One example given was a five room, two story brick veneer house built in the Bloomington-Normal community recently at a first pay ment cost of $1,100 to the builder (including cost of lot) with a monthly payment of slightly more than $35. The same house would easily rent, the builder ald, for $50 a month. The prospective builders were told by the experts in the field that they usually want a $10,000 house for $5,000. Some of those present admitted that families will get along in a small apartment or inadequate rented house, but when they con sider building, their ideas go from the four room quarter to seven or eight rooms.

Two Ways to Cut Costs. "There are two ways to reduce costs of the "dream house" down to where it fits the budget: Reduce the size, and make small savings by economies on such things as foundation, framing, exterior cov ering, heating, mill work, interior finish and plumbing. Each of those MILLIONS IN LUNGS Yes indeed, there are millions in your lungs but they are all tiny air sacs. That's where the cold virus often likes to settle and hnng on. Says Mrs.

Personally, I like World's Tonic for this sort of precaution against colds. So many of my friends using it and saying such good things about it got me started and I've used it ever since."

Provides Weekly Benefits. Operation of the unemployment compensation program starting July 1 will be explained at the May 1 meeting. The program Is a job insurance plan which will provide meekly cash benefits to insured workers for a limited period of time should they be unemployed through no fault of their own after July 1. Benefit will be about one half the worker's full time weekly wage with a top limit of $15 weekly. Only those persons who have earned in insured employment wages equal to pay for eight weeks of full time work between July 1, 1938.

and March 31, 1939, will be eligible for benefits during July, August and September of this year. Insured workers are those employed in business, manufacturing, building, mining or service eatabliahmenta which employ eight or more worker on tome part of a day in at least 20 different calendar weeks In a year.

Sheldon President Mrs. Strohmeier Tells Social Service Aims Arthur L. Sheldon, 820 West Mill street, was elected president of the board of directors of the Bureau of Social Service, at its 38th annual meeting held Tuesday night in the offices in the Eddy building'. Mr. Sheldon has been a member of the board for several years.

He is an active leader in many civic projects. Roy A. Ramseyer declined re election after serving two years as president, and war retained as a member of the board of directors, succeeding the late Sam Waldman. Re-elected were J. B.

Havens, first vice president; C. C. Wagner, second vice president; Robert K. Okell, treasurer, and Mrs. L.

G. Freeman, secretary of the board. Several Holdover Directors. Charles D. Guy and Fred E.

Mur ray were elected members of the board, and the following members were re-elected: Carl E. Behr, Dr. Leroy Yolton, Wayne Townley and Mark R. Ethell. Holdover directors include Mrs.

E. R. Morgan, Henry Behr, Ralph M. Green, Mrs. Julius Griesheim, Al A.

Ulbrich, J. L. Hasbrouck, Mrs. W. H.

Cumming, Joseph Schneeberger and Mrs. G. E. Hart- enbower. Mrs.

Florence K. Strohmeier, the executive secretary, in her annual report cited that in spite of changing conditions during the 38 years of the bureau's life, its original purpose remains the same to promote family life. This is done with the idea in mind of helping the family help itself, Mrs. Strohmeier said. The family as a unit, its health, recreation, industry and spiritual development, Is the central thought of all the bureau's efforts, the sec retary emphasized.

For that rea son "kindly investigation is neces sary for the real understanding of the difficulties of those who are in trouble." Co-operation between public and private social agencies is essential, said Mrs. Strohmeier. Praises Waldman's Work. "Although material relief is always one of the most important parts of our service," the secretary said, "our organization seeks to help troubled families and individuals cope with their own problems." Material relief has. been largely assumed by government agencies, she said.

"Our organization," said Mrs. Strohmeier, "has lost an ardent supporter and friend in the pass ing of Sam Waldman. Mr. Wald man's outstanding interest in charity work led to his selection as director in 1922. He served as director continuously until 1934 when he was chosen president, serving as head of the bureau until 1937 when he asked to be relieved of his duties due to failing health.

He again became a director and his interest never lagged. His pleasing personality, fine traits of character, his keen sense of jus tice and kindness will always re main in the memory of his co workers. Mrs. Strohmeier's report gave these facts about the financial setup of the bureau for the last year: "The bureau was remembered in the will of George Cox. His bequest of $300 was paid on Dec.

15, 1938. We are again grateful to the distributing committee of the Bre-voort estate for the portion of $4,722.01 alloted our organization. This amount, added to the Hanna bequest, $2,902.13 for 1938, practically makes up our quota in the Community Chest." The report of the treasurer. Rob ert K. Okell, showed total funds handled during the vear were S15- 034.47 from all sources.

Balance at the close of the year was $5,398, which included special funds in the form of endowments given to the bureau by several persons through the years, only the interest of which is available for expenditure. Dr. Ralph Peaira was allotted $285 from the Community Cheet for the help of crippled adults, which he is handling through the bureau, having spent $144 of this sum during the year.

Petitions Ask Pinballs Be Left While Let Supreme Court Decide, Their Plea Petitions, said to be sponsored by merchants having pinball machines in their business places, and seeking continuation of the machines until their legality is ruled on by the supreme court were being circulated in Bloomington Wednesday. The petitions were addressed to the mayor and city council.

They declared that the city needed revenue from pinball licenses to provide police and fire protection and sponsoring WPA projects. Another argument advanced In the petitions was that a "great many" Bloomington families depend on the "pinball Industry" for their Income. Clouds Obscure Partial Eclipse Central Illinois residents who have been fretting over the recent gloomy weather Wednesday registered another kick. Cloudy skies deprived them of seeing a partial eclipse of the sun. There was an optimistic note along with the gloom, however.

Government weather forecasters predicted the weather would become fair Wednesday night, with warmer temperatures following Thursday. Some possibility of a light frost Wednesday night was expressed, however. The eclipse made Invisible here was visible in sunnier sections of the continent between 9:30 and 11:30 a. m. In Alaska the moon came directly between the earth and the sun, but the result was not a total eclipse, scientists reported.

Instead, an annular resulted, with a fringe of fiery red sun peeking out all around the edge of the moon. Locally the temperature the last 24 hours has been in the high 30's most of the time, an unusually low place for the mercury in mid April. At 2:30 p. m. the temperature was 38 degrees.
