1t is not necessary to rip OF tho
old shingles in putting on a new
roof unless. of course, the old
shingles are obviously in too bad
a condition. Any OF the standard
roofing materials, such as asphaltI
tile. or wooden shingles. can ba'
applied right over the old roof.
In many instances il is a prac-
tical measure to keep the. old roof.
1t acts as a good base for the

provides added insulation for the

The cost OF applying a new roof
is low and something that ia
quickly paid for both by the
money saved on interior repairs
and the reduction in heating bills.

10 Sub Menace
Cargo Planes
Moy Be Answer

WASHINGTON, July 23-(P)
-Air-minded congressman G
asking admirals and merchant
marine chiefs whether manufac-
ture of cargo planes by the
thousands would be the best way
to beat the submarines.
They are studying proposal
by Henry j. Kaiser, west coast
shipbuilder and engineering au-
thority, that several existing
shipyards be devoted to con-
struction of 5000 giant flying
boats, capable of carrying big
cargoes on tranoceanic flights.
Rep. Mott (R-Ore.), a rank
ing minority member of the
House naval committee, said he
thought Kaisers plan was "en-
tirely fesible" and that he in
tended to ask several admirals
appearing before the committee
today to outline the Nays stand
on it.
His opportunity to get the
Nays views came as the naval
committee called in high officers
for an outline of steps taken to
Dust the japanese from three is
lands in the western Aleutians.
Meanwhile, Rep. Bland Cd
Va.), chairman of the House
merchant marine committee, said
that there was a definite prob
ability" that his committee
would call in Kaiser and war
shipping administrator Emory S.
Land, probably late next week,
for discussion of aerial freight
ers.
BANDS plan to have the mer-
chant marine committee inquire
into the flying boat question won
immediate, enthusiastic support
from Rep. Peterson (D-Fla.) },
chairman of subcommittee in
vestigating cancellation of a
ship-building contract at a New
Orleans yard, and from Rep.
Boykin (D-Ala.), chairman of a
subcommittee studying the short
age of steel for ship construction.
The attitude of the admirals
and the deliberations of the mer.
chant marine committee may de-
eide whether legislation will be
introduced to translate Kaiser's
plan into reality.
Mott asserted that cargo
planes could carry easily a large
part of the freight now being
transported to the United Ma
tons in surface ships, which risk
attack by submarines.

WASHINTON, July % Up
President Roosevelt carefully
canvassed his wartime powers
and sought advice from both
labor and management today in
an effort to learn whether sd-
ditional, urgent curbs on in
fla ton could be imposed speed
IL without new legislation.
It was reported that he had
arranged conferences with At
torney General Biddle to study
steps he might take independent
ly to control rising costs of liv-
ing under authority of the two
war powers acts and the basic
price control law, as we'll as his
authority as the nations COM
mander- in-chief.
Well-informed sources who
declined quotation by name said
that he also probably would
confer soon with representatives
of the United States Chamber of
Commerce, the National Associ-
alton of Manufacturers and the
Labor War Cabinet, which in
cludes AFL and Clio leaders.
These developments occurred
soon after Senator Barley of
Kentucky, one of four Congress
sional leaders who discussed the
situation with the President,
said it was not certain that Mr..
Roosevelt would send a message
to Congress on the subject.
The President told a Press
conference Tuesday he hoped to
transmit such a communication
and it was learned that at one
time he contemplated asking
Congress to approve a simple
resolution giving Leon Hender-
son, price administrator, sweep
ing powers to take any steps
necessary to regulate wages or
farm prices.
But the Democratic leaders
from the capitol frowned on
such a program, telling Mr..
Roosevelt that any legislation
Or the subject would encounter
not only strong opposition but
also WeekS-perhaps months
of study. Therefore, they strong
ly recommend that he take
whatever immediate steps might

as one of them termed it, if
legal justification could be
found.
Speaker Rayburn of the
House told newspapermen that
