the race.
In announcing he would not be

chairman OF the Upper Potomac

porter Of Mrs Byron, said he would
give his to 1t. Col. E. Brooke Lee

In statement Mr.. McMullen
said
After due consideration I have
decided not to become a candidate
for the Democratic nomination for
Congress from this district. I deeply
appreciate the suggestion of my
name by some of my friends and
the numerous offers of support from
various parts of the district
After careful thought, I have
concluded that the imperative need
for party and national unity at this
time make 1t advisable for me to be
candidate. My decision was aided
by the fact that, in my opinion,
the Sixth District of Maryland has
in Col. E. Brooke Lee candidate
admirably qualified to represent us
during these perilous times, and I
will support him for the Demo-

p, the Associated Press.
A Nebraska public power official
said yesterday enough steam ca
pacity was available in the agri-
cultural sections of the Nation to
make all of the synthetic rubber
we need" from the grain alcohol
process.
George E. johnson, general man.
ager of the Central Nebraska Pub

told reporters many low pressure
boilers not now serving any useful
purpose could be obtained for in
stallation in grain alcohol plants.
These low pressure boilers were
left over for reserve in number
of plants after they were replaced
by high pressure boilers" he said.
They are all in good condition be-
cause they are fired up every day.
We don't need high pressure steam
to make alcohol
He said arrangements already had
been made for acquisition Of low
pressure boilers in Iowa, Kansas
and Nebraska if and when we get
the priorities to build the plants"
Mr.. Johnson, also president of the
Farm Crops Processing Corp. of
Nebraska, came here to continue his
quest for priorities in connection
with a plan calling for construction
of at least five plants to produce
synthetic rubber from alcohol un-
der the so-called Polish process.
I'VE have offered to build the
plants and finance the entire pro-

Pilot Rescues n From Sea
In Plane Built to Carry 9
Craft Bounces Once,
Then Takes to Air
With Ship Survivors

The Navy yesterday announced an
almost impossible feat of aviation
the rescue by Coast Guard
pilot of 81 Norwegian seamen from
the Gulf of Mexico in plane that
was designed to carry nine men at
the most.
1t. D. O. Reed of Winchester, KY,
had a crew of five in addition to
himself when he was making a
routine patrol fight over the gulf.
He saw the wreckage of ship and
dropped close to the water to
search for survivors. The observer
of the plane spotted two lifeboats
crowded with survivors of the
stricken ship.
1t. Reed set his plane down be-
side the boats. and began the work
of transferring the Norwegian sea-
man. The rescue was made more
than unusually difficult by the fact
that one of the men had broken
back. and several others had been
burned in the explosion that
followed the torpedolng.
With the twin engine seaplane
ver-crowded with 81 men and
carrying 600 gallons of gasoline, 1t.
Reed attempted the takeoff from
the surface. First he squeezed
everybody as far forward as possible
in the ship. and then applied full

The American people are not 60

Mr. Anderson made the statement
after hearing DR.. Lewis H. Marks,

ais was the only obstacle to COM

Representative Bender, Republi-
can, of Ohio, said, Il am going to
find out who is responsible for this
bottleneck-whoi is not allowing the
proper priorities."
The congressman said they COM
prised an unof1icial committee
which wanted to appraise the Pub

Finnish Minister Plans
To Continue to Work
For Friendly Relations

In informal comment on the clos
ing Of Finnish consulates in the
United States, Hjalmar Procope, the
Minister of Finland, said yesterday:
Il am frankly rather astonished
TO see invoked in this case some
Finish regulations issued in July
1a41, concerning the activities of all
consular representatives in Finland
These regulations are one year old
and during all that time-as far as
I know-there have been no protests
on the part of the United States.
However, 1t is not up to me to
discuss the measure in this connec-
ton, however much I regret that
1t has been found necessary to take
this step.
Consuls Are Defended.
What I should like to point out
Is that this measure on the part
of the American Government has
9een motivated by reasons which
, i ave nothing to do with the work

mot the slightest hint has been
made-nor could it be made-to the
effect that Finnish consular officials.
their staffs or their Offices had in
any way transgressed the sphere
OF normal consular activities or in
dulged in activities motivating the
closing of the consulates. The COM
plete loyalty of their work is not
questioned.
Procope VIII Stay Here.
r, on my part, will stay here and
continue my work. I am happy to
do 1t because I now, as always, see
the strong links of mutual sympa-
thy, common aims and common out
look that exists between this great
and powerful nation of the United
States, to which we Films always
have looked up, and far distant Fin
land, which, attacked and thereby
forced to fight, has no other aims
in her defensive struggle than to
secure her country from foreign in
vasion and her independence and
freedom for the future.
War is always a serious thing
with many complications. I fully
realize the seriousness of the pres
ent situation. My duty is to do what
I can to cultivate and keep up the
understanding and the relations be-
tween this country and mine. My
wish Is to do my best in this"

Trend to Less Expensive
Homes AcceIerutes

The trend in residential building
toward reaching families Of lower
incomes was accelerated during 1941,
Federal Housing Commissioner
Abner H. Ferguson announced today.
Gains were registered in income
groups below $2,500. while there was
less financing of homes under the
F. H. A. plan for families in income
categories above that figure. Mr..
Ferguson said this trend gave q
measure Of the utility OF the F. H. A.
program in providing homes for war
industry workers.
Preliminary statistics on 194l
home building activity under the r.
H. A. plan, including only the Title
II mortgage insurance program,
show that the benefits OF the in
sured mortage system again were
utilized by a broader section of the
Nations moderate income families
to acquire homes Of their own. This
trend has been apparent since the
establishment of the F. H. A. in 1884.
Houses for rent or sale built under
Title vi are not included in the
figures.
More than "a per cent Of all new
single-family homes financed by
mortgages insured under Title II Of
the National Housing Act were pur-
chased by families with annual in
comes Of less than $4,000. This COM
pared with % per cent in 1910. Is
per cent in 1889 and 20 per cent In
1887.
Approximately "a per cent of the
purchasers of new homes had in
comes below $2,500. compared with
81 per cent in 1910, 50 per cent in
1899 and A per cent in 1887.
