Over the years a connector loses flexibility Consequently, it may crack when reshaped after being in one position for a long time or when the appliance is pulled out too far from the wall. To help ensure trouble-free, long-lasting operation, NI-Gas offers these guidlines: ...Do not use a connector where it can be damaged by people standing, stepping or leaning on it. .Use only one connector per appliance. ...The maximum safe length for a connector is six feet. .It should not be installed through walls, floors or ceilings. If a connector shows evidence of damage or corrosion, NI-Gas advises having it replaced. Zero-Plus Calling Katy A It h off Is Graduate In Paralegal Training Launch New Factory O.K. TERRY A.

Municipalit ies are being asked to help stave off a possible five-month halt in housing activity in Ill inois due to the cement sljprtage by agreeing to a temporary lift ing of requirements for concrete construction, a Chicago area builder says In remarks prepared for the Ill inois Municipal League meeting at the Conrad Hilton hotel in Chicago, Friday. Sept 15, Jack McNeil, representing the Home Builders Association of Greater Chicago and the Home Builders Association of Il l inois, asked that available concrete be used for foun dations alone "We request that each municipal authority in the state t e m p o r a r i l y w a i v e requirements for concrete curb and gutter, sidewalks, service walks, steps and retaining walls," he said these items will be put in place by our builders as soon as possible next spring, when weather and supply conditions allow "In addition, we request that any municipal authority now requiring concrete driveways allow asphalt driveways to be built instead until next spring " These actions are needed immediately, McNeil said, so that enough foundations can be poured between now and mid November to allow con struction to continue throughout the winter "Failure to pour these foun dations means a complete halt in construction activity until April of 1979, when foundation work can be resumed," he said The economic implications of a shutdown are "disastrous," MeNeil noted, saying "Each home built in Ill inois has approximately 40.000 man hours of !abor. including the on site work and the work involved in making materials, equip ment and components off-site The loss of these wage dollars by construction and industrial workers will reduce state and local revenues while swelling unemployment and welfare roles throughout the state " The cement ' shortage begun earlier this year in the western United States, has now spread DR.
