BALTIMORE, May 13.-House-
holders in crowded war production
areas of the United States soon may
be confronted with the necessity Of
taking war workers into their
homes.
The need for legal means to &C
complish billeting was voiced here
by two high officials of Federal
housing agencies yesterday at
conference of the National Associa-
ton Of Housing Oficials.
Because of an acute shortage

ton for service, Sullivan w. Jones,
chief of the War Production Boards
housing priorities branch, told the
housing officials.
Billeting Held Necessary.
This tight situation, he declared,
demands not only tremendous in
crease in volume of alterations and
rehabilitation operations but the
billeting of war workers in private
homes.
Howard Strong. director of the
homes registration service of the
National Housing Agency, said bill

less every other available residential
facility were made available to
workers in vital production areas.
TN England" Mr.. Strong said,
"the threat of billeting, backed by
the necessary legal authority, has in
the great majority of instances in
fluenced the householder to open
voluntarily all his available space
to war guests"
Then he added: "I believe that we
should have this mailed fist of legal
power within the velvet glove Of per-
suasion."
May Take Vacant Houses.
The possibility of communicating
or use-requisitioning vacant houses
and large inadequately occupied
houses was already being studied.
Mr.. Strong disclosed.
Other speakers painted a dreary
picture of housing prospects In a
session given over to war troubles
priorities, rent regulation and exist
ing facilities No measure of relief
was promised. Instead worse con-
ditions to come" were predicted.
Housing authorities were advised
to find substitutes for critical ma

U. 5. May Rest Today
In Trial Of 5 Accused
Of Removing Files
Prosecution Expects to
Give Jury Part Of
Defendants Statements

The Government hopes to rest
It's case today in the prosecution
of four men and a woman on trial
in District Court on charges of
Illegally removing more than 90
600 personnel records from the
Civil Service Commission.
The trial already has stretched
through seven days, slowed by legal
arguments on headmissibility of
evidence.
Assistant United States Attorney
Charles B. Murray, however, said
the end of the Governments case
is now in sight and he believes he
will be able to complete it before
the court adjourns late today. Be-
fore doing so he plans to dis
close portions of statements al
legged to have been made to spe-
cial agents of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation by the five defend
ants.
Statements Admitted.
These statements already have
been admitted in evidence. but 1t
took nearly two and a half days
of legal discussions with the jury
absent to reach this point The
debate revolved primarily around
the question whether the state
ments of two of the defendants
Miss Katherine Kay and Lawrence
Haynes-were made voluntarily.
For nearly four hours yesterday
both Mr.. Haynes and his attorney,
Harold Gravey, attempted to show
that three. statements, alleged to
have been signed by MIR. Haynes
and offered in evidence, were not
; given voluntarily. Finally. JUS
tice James w. Morris ruled the
statements were made voluntarily.
Miss Kay Loses Point.
Later, Miss Kay took the wit
ness stand to contradict testimony
of F. B. I. agents that she gave
them a voluntary statement the
Government had offered in evi-
dence. Justice Morris ruled in this
instance that since there was a
conflict between the defendant
and the Government agents, there
was nothing to do under the law
but submit her statement to the
jury.
William H. WEIGH, F. B. I. agent
who said he took a statement from
Miss Kay, testified she was ad-
vised it was to be given voluntar-
lily. But Miss Kay, on the witness
stand, declared under cross-exami-
nation by Prosecutor Murray she
was nervous and made the state
ment because l felt it was all I
could do at the time"
In addition to Miss Kay and Mr..
Haynes, other defendants are Har-
Ian G. Crandall, Walter A. G.
Camp and Werner J. Orbach.
