Stirling Hayden in Reno
For Divorce, Paper Says
Py the Associated press

Py the Associated Press
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 3l-The
Times says today that Stirling Hay
den, movie actor, is in Reno, New,
to file suit for divorce from Actress
Madeleine Carroll.
The newspaper reported Mr..
Hayden had arrived in Reno from
New York and said he would estab-
lish his residence preparatory to
filing suit, although he had not yet
consulted an attorney.
Spokesman for Paramount Studio,
where the two made their latest
pictures in 1S41, could not verify
the report.
They were married in 1912. Mr.
Hayden entered the Marine Corps
early in the war, while Miss Carroll
was active in Red Cross work.

 Strong pressure from Republican colleagues has been exerted on Representative Clarence Brown of Ohio, Haeck's leading opponent for the majority leader post to retire from the race rather than risk bitter fight and possible rift in House COP ranks
 These Republicans also have made t clear to Congressman Brown that Ohio in Bob Taft already has the No. 1 Republican in the Senate, and that it would look as Ohio Republicans were trying to grab too much power in Congress with Brown gunning for the No. spot in the House, the ma jority leadership.

 Previous liberalization of the rent formula on new construction he said, had been wholly insufficient"
 Sponsors of rental projects" he continued, "are reluctant to make long range investment now with the possibility of lower and stable costs at time in the future Under these conditions-and when prices start downward-they will be inclined to adopt "wat-and see" policy That is understand able from the standpoint of investment But it means that greater risk must be taken by the Government.
 There is an urgent, critical immediate need for large volume of rental housing for veterans. All Surveys of veterans housing needs show that huge proportion want and need to rent rather than buy. To fill this need now, strong Government incentives are required to overcome the wait attitude
 "The Government must assume the risk of finan- cling. This will put the skill and "know-how" of ex- perienced private enterprise builders to work at will also enable non-profit associations veterans CO., operatives and mutual ownership groups, and local veterans organizations to undertake housing projects they would otherwise be unable to finance"
 One general statement he made in his report is worth quoting:
