Son Francisco's Keep Green Progrom

The San Fran'cisco Chamber of Commerce "Keep Green" program for forest and range fire prevention, which has brought national recognition to San Francisco, has been expanded and is off to an early start this year. Left to right are Chamber President Jesse W. Tapp, D. R. McNeill, vice president of Foster and Kleiser Co., and William J. Losh, chairman of the Chamber's Keep Green Committee, at a billboard donated by Foster and Kleiser to spread the Chamber's fire prevention message. The program, which recognizes the economic importance to the city of the vast forest and range areas of Northern California, brings home to city residents their obligation to help prevent fires when traveling or visiting in these areas. The billboards are only one of a number of means the Chamber's Keep Green Committee is using to disseminate the fire prevention message.

Great Home Air Conditioning Proiect ln Texos

On June 2, a research project was launched in Austin, Texas. On that day,22 families moved into 22 new, completely air conditioned homes in the Edgewood subdivision of Northwest Austin to become "guinea pigs" for a oneyear study of the mechanical, financial and human problems involved in the use of year-round rveather control in the average home.

The scientists who will conduct this research work hope to find the answers to such questions as these:

Is air conditioning economically practicable for homes costing as little as $12,000?

How much does it cost to operate air conditioning system in a frame house ? Masonry ? Combination brick and frame ?

Are the children better behaved in an air conditioned environment? Are colds and allergies reduced in air conditioned homes ?

Does the housewife feel more like doing her daily chores when her home is as comfortable as her husband's air-cooled offi'ce?

The Austin project is sponsored by the National Association of Home Builders.
