Same Type Hut
Keeps Marines
| Warm or Cool
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The same type of hut keeps ma
rines cool in Panama and warm in
Iceland.
The Navy calls the prefabricated
steel houses "Quonset huts" because
they are made in Quonset, r. l.,
and says the huts "look like over
grown oil drums turned on their
sides and partially buried"
They are built on, foundation
Of light steel trusses bolted together.
Over this is laid a wooden floor
which comes in sections.
Between the composition inside
walls and the corrugated metal out
side walls an insulation wood fiber
is spread to give warmth in cold
countries and to hold out the heat
in the tropics.
When used in the tropics, the huts
have screened doors and windows
at each end. but in the Arctic wood
en- bulkheads are at the ends.
Each hut, designed to permit 10
single-tier hunks. can accommodate
about Is men, although in the Canal
Zone a smaller number occupies
each hut.

B, the Associated Press.


Sales by printers and publishers
of obsolete stereotype plates were
excluded from the universal price
ceiling yesterday by the Office of
Price Administration to speed their
movement to smelters for recovery
of their lead, tin and antimony for
war use.
The War Production Board last
month ordered printers and pub
fishers to dispose of their stocks of
obsolete plates before October /,
1912.
Because disposal of such large
tonnage might overload the market,
the Government-owne Metals RE

Dies Requests House
To Reject BiddIe's
Report on Workers
Says Justice Head FuiIed
To Comply With Congress
Will in Federal Probe
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The FBI and Dies Committee were
at sharp odds today over the extent
OF subversiveness among Federal
employees.
Chairman Dies, accusing Attor-
ney General Biddle of having
"failed utterly" to comply with con-
gressional wishes, asked the House
to reject a Justice Department re-
port which criticized the commit
tee for sending the FBI on time
consuming search for disloyal Gov
ernment workers.
Mr.. Dies, head of the special COM
mittee set up four years ago to in
vestigate un-American activities,
made his request in a letter to
Speaker Rayburn in which he re-
ferred to q recent act of Congress
asking the FBI to make the inquiry.
Committee Smear Charged.
The Justice Department. the
Texan charged, did not want the
assignment in the first place and
sit is not strange that nothing but

has resulted. ="
Mr.. Biddle's report said that as
q result of 2,095 Investigations, in
Guiding many suggested by the Dies
Committee, only SO Government
workers had been dismissed and 13
others disciplined. This result, he
added, was utterly disproportion-
ate to the resources expended"
Mr.. Dies retorted he could come
to no conclusion except that what
Mr.. Biddle has done in effect is
to give a license to every Govern
ment employe to engage In any
Communist subversive activity so
long as he does not 60 to the extent
OF actually carrying publicly paid
up card in the Communist party"
Calls Mandate" Unfulfilled.
Instead of fulfilling the mandate
of Congress, he added, "the Attorney
General has issued a meaningless
conglomeration of statistics set in
. framework of general conclusions
which are either totally irrelevant
to the issues involved or dangerous
to the internal safety Of this country
If applied to employment in the
Federal Government"
Mr.. Dies said he had conclusive
proof" that many suspected en-
ployes were put under strong pres
sure to resign voluntarily" before
the FBI started its investigation.
The Texan was represented as
having determined to force show
down in the House between his COM
mittee and Mr.. Biddle by formally
requesting the rejection of the At
torney Generals report as not meet
Ing the congressional mandate.

Walker Acts 10 Bar Paper,
Accused as Seditious
By the Associated Press.


Postmaster General Walker
charged yesterday that the Boise
VALLEY Herald. a weekly newspaper
published at Middleton, Idaho, had
printed matter held by the Post
Once and Justice Departments to

fishers to show cause September

at Middleton not to accept any cop
les of the Herald for mail until the

ruled on their AVAILABILITY.
The Postmaster General acted on
the recommendation of Attorney

to Mr.. Walker:
