Snyder Studies Plan
For New-Home Buyer
To GET Money! Worth
Ey the Associated d Press.

| 65 liie ASsoCldtta IiSSS.
Reconversion Director John w.
Snyder is studying plan designed
to assure that purchasers of new
homes get their moneys worth.
The plan, applicable to dwellings
built under the Governments new
housing program, has been submit
ted by officials working out details
of a regulation which will restore
building materials to a priorities
system.
The regulation, to be put into ef-
feet next week on orders from
President Truman, earmarks so per
cent of all building supplies for
houses or apartments costing $10,-
900 or less a unit.
Quality Controls Lacking.
Thus far there has been nothing
in drafts of the regulation to make
sure that builders sell homes at
prices reasonably related to the
cost. Quality controls have been
lacking.
This meant that a contractor
after receiving Government aid ir
obtaining materials, could sell at
$4,000 a home actually worth only
$4,000
We've got to block that sort OF
thing said high Government Of
fetal.
If we are going to flow mater
las into home construction, we
want to make sure that veterans
and others get their moneys worth
of house"
! The plan presented to Mr.. Snyder
by the National Housing Agency
Civilian Production Administration
and OPA provides for a check OF
builders specifications when they
apply for help in getting materials
If it were found that the builder
planned to sell the house at a price
out of line with cost, his applica
ton for a material priority woulc
be denied.
Later Check Also Planned.
In cases of assistance granted
there also would be a later check tt
determine whether the house wa.
sold at a price reasonably close tt
that specified before construction.
Aides of Mr.. Snyder are know1
to be skeptical about whether thi
program could be enforced. The,
have contended that controls O
that kind belong more properly IL
the Patman bill for price ceilings Oh
houses. This legislation has beer
indorsed by Mr.. Truman.
! Proponents of the plan for qualit.
control hope to have a decision
from Mr.. Snyder by Monday, whe,
the new priorities regulation i
scheduled for a private unveilin,
!. here before labor and management
representatives of the construction
industry.
The purpose of the conference /
to discuss methods of stimulatin,
home construction at reasonable
prices. The sessions will continu,
through Tuesday.

Lost on China Flight
Are Listed as Dead
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PEIPING, Dec. 15.-Maj. Gen
Keller E. Rockey yesterday an
nounced that seven Marine flyers
were listed as dead, three were miss
ing and two were injured and still
in the interior as the result OF
crashes of six Marine Helldive1
planes during a snowstorm Decem-
ber 8.
Aerial searchers have sighted five
of the wrecked planes in Commu-
nist-held territory about 80 miles
northwest of Tsingtao on the Shan
tung Peninsula and are still hunting
the other.
. Gen. Rockey said negotiations
were in progress for returning the
injured survivors to TSingtao.
Negotiations also still are under
way for the return of six other
Marine flyers who bailed out in
Communism held territory in Shan
tung Province more than month
ago.
Gen Rockey said Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek had asked about
the men and expressed surprise that
they had not been returned, as nego-
tlationS had been conducted on their
behalf by top Chungking govern
ment officials with the Communist
leaders at Yenan.
Meanwhile, horseback riding ir
the outskirts of Tientsin-a favorite
recreation of American Marines sta.
toned there-has been forbidden ir
an effort to forestall further Incl
dents such as the recent shooting of
an unarmed Marine by Chinese
civilians in that area.
Gen. Rockey disclosed yesterday
that he had declared the bride
paths off bounds.
On December a Marine sergeant
riding alone outside Tientsin was
attacked by three Chinese civilians
one Of whom fired a bullet which
wounded him in the face. He leaped
from his horse into a nearby canal
and swan to safety.
Gen. Rockey said he thought the
attack was an indication of unset
tied conditions in the aftermath OF
war. and that the motive may have
been robbery.

was taken from its carriage in the
school yard across the street from
her home at pm, which she said
was only half hour after she had
wheeled the baby out of her house
But when police questioned neigh
borhood children day or two after
the reported kidnapping" they found
one child who was positive that the
baby was not in the carriage at
2:30 pm.
With these two factors, Mr.. Culli-
name said, police looking for the
baby paid little attention to the
telephoned ransom demands, or to
reports of the child being seen in
various parts of New England.
They turned back to the Carlan
home, and it was while two police
men questioned the Carlans in the
kitchen that Special Officer Matthew
Flaherty of Chelsea found the baby S
body.
Police Chief Charles Finn quoted
Mrs. Carlan as saying the baby, re-
ported missing November %, actu-
ally died November "a while she
was attending party in her mother
in-law's fiat upstairs.
Afraid People Would Talk.
The chief said Mrs. Carlan main
tanned she invented the kidnap
story because she was afraid peo-
pie would say neglected the child
The kidnapping report and subse-
quent demands for ransom touched
off a search that led from the tene-
ment districts of Chelsea to several
Boston taverns and even to Spring
field, 80 miles away.
Carlan embraced his wife and
told her he would stick by you" be-
fore he left police headquarters in a
state of collapse. He was placed in
care of a physician.
Detective Cullinane said Mrs. Car
Ian told this story:
She last saw Ronald alive about
7:30 pm. on Saturday, November "a
when she went upstairs to her
mother-in-law's party. She returned
for phonograph and records about
1890 pm, observed the baby
frothing from the mouth and tried
to breathe life into him.
Returned to Party.
/ When she realized the infant was
dead, she returned to the party be-
cause she feared she would be
missed. The affair broke up about
midnight and about am. she
dressed the child and hid the body
Fearing that people would say she
neglected the child, she placed his
empty carriage across the street
from the Carlan home on Tuesday
and Wednesday, hoping someone
would report the baby missing.
A neighbor's child did report the
empty carriage late Wednesday aft.
ernoon, November %, and Mrs. Car.
Ian notified police the child hae
been kidnapped"
Shortly after the Carlans arrived
separately at police headquarters
last night, Mrs Carlan asked ma
tron to carry a note to her husband
! It said:
Jim: Please believe me. I didn't
hurt Ronnie in any way and Goo
will help me prove it. Take gooc
care of little Jimmy for me. DOM

in the partition so that the air blast
passes through il into the next COM
partment in which the rest of the
body is extended.
BY this contrivance the air wave
enters the nose and reaches the
lungs at the same moment that it
strikes the outer part of the chest.
So the air pressure inside the lungs
and on the outside OF the chest are
made equal each moment. That is
why the chest neither rises nor falls
with alterations of air pressure
around the body inside the chamber.
DR. Barach's "equaliZing pres
sure chamber" makes il possible for
about 30 cubic inches of air to enter
and leave the lungs of the patient
about 18 times each minute, which
is just the internal ventilation pro-
duced by normal breathing.
DR.. Barach found that his method
supplies as much oxygen, the gas in
the atmosphere which is needed for
life. as ordinary breathing provides
TO the blood and tissues.
The arrest of lung movement does
not in any way interfere with the
circulation of the blood. There is no
undesirable effect within the body.
Some of the patients feel an un-
pleasant sensation in the ears
because of the alternating high and
low air pressure waves. But this is
overcome by covering the ears with
sponge rubber Sheaths.
The most significant and unex-
pected effect of the chamber treat.
ment is that in some unexplained
way it soothes nerves and the brain.
The treated persons don't want
to smoke or move in the chamber.
1t is possible that the new therapy
will help in the treatment of certain
neurotic and other mental disorders.
1t might be an excellent means of
rebuilding health and Ugor of run
down and aging persons, by provid-
ing for them a special Information"
AS a rule a course of treatment
takes four months.
One of DR.. Barach'S successfully
treated cases, reported in the "Ameri-
can Review of tuberculosis" ex-
emplifies dramatically how patients
can be saved from practically certain
death by complete lung rest.
After four months of chamber
treatment he gained 35 pounds in
weight, the lungs were cleared of
cavities and no fever or any other
signs of the disease remained.
For the past four years the practi-
cally cured man has been at his JOB
and living a normal life.
DR.. Barach expects to press for
ward research and experimental
treatments with his "equalizingo pres
sure chamber" Particularly he will
attempt the treatment of early cases
of tuberculosis.

RETIRING U50 PRESIDENT
THANKS NEGRO PRESS
FOR COOPERATION

NEW YORK, Apr. II (ANP)-
The Negro press and the Associated
Negro Press were lauded by Chest
er I. Barnard, USO president, for
cooperating with the United Serv-
ice organizations programs.
Barnard, who retires on April
13, issued his praise in letter to
the Associated Negro Press.
''I wish to express my apprecia-
tion of the valuable services you and
the Negro press in general have
rendered USO and the men and wo-
men we serve" he said. II have been
able to follow the press quite closely
and I have been very gratified to
see the wide and steady use which
has been made of USO releases"
The retiring USO president re-
quested that his message Of apprec-
iation be passed along to the editors

COURT HOLDS BUSES
MUST TRANSPORT
TICKET HOLDERS

ATLANTA, April II (ANP)-
If bus line sells a prospective
passenger a ticket it must trans
port him to his destination, the
Georgia Court of Appeals ruled
here.
The high court affirmed a judg-
ment for $500 damages obtained by
John Austin of Winder, Ca, against
the Atlantic Greyhound corpora
ton. Austin claimed that he was
refused transportation from Athens
to Winder at a time when he was
seriously i'll, and had to pay SIS to
get home in taxicab.
The ruling is considered signifi-
cant in view of the custom of many
bus lines in Georgia and other
southern states to deny transporta-
tion to Negro passengers, even
though they have purchased tickets,
as long as there are white passen-
gers to board the bus.
