raveIer's n Notebook
By Jacques FutreIIe, Jr.
The Stur's TroyeI Editor


Summer vacation plans of thou
sands of travel-hungry Americans
were solved last week with forma
announcement that Fontana Village
in the beautiful mountain country
of Western North Carolina, is tc
be operated this year by Govern
ment Services, Inc, as resort
Nom as we'll as per-
sons in Federal employ, will use the
facilities.
The announcement confirmed pre-
vious reports that Fontana, built
to house workers on the Tennessee
Valley Authority's giant Fontana
Dam, would be made available to
the public. There has been some
speculation as to the opening date
and the number of accommodations
to be offered. Information now is
that there will be quarters for ap-
proXimately 1900 vacationists, with
the opening estimated to be as early
as May Is. This date is contingent
on conversion plans going through
on schedule. Occupancy before June
Is Is assured.
Forecasts of the vacation find
were carried In this column and in
other news items, so that Govern
ment Services already has backlog
of requests for accommodations
These vacation "sooners" were in
spired In part by reports that July
and August are booked up solidly
at many resort hotels, that cabins
in State parks have been spoken
for from June to September, that
some hotel managers are rejecting
requests from all but their regular
patrons and that length of visits
in some cases may be restricted to
permit broader sharing of vaca-
ton facilities.
Fontana Village will offer over
night and weekly cottage accommo-
dations, restaurant and shopping
facilities, boating and fishing on the
30-mile- long lake created by the
dam, and equestrian and hiking
trails through wooded mountains
adjacent to the Great Smoky Noun
tain National Park. The village is
1900 feet above sea level.
Cottages are of the one, two and
three bedroom type, and there are
several hundred of them. Barracks
also supplement overnight facilities
and, with heavy vacation demands
within the United States antici-
pated for the immediate years
ahead, it is possible unused tempo
rary housing will be shifted to this
recreational site to expand Amer
ica's vacation facilities.
Government Services reports the
principal recreation area is located
at the 480-foot dam, on the south
shore of the lake which backs up
into the Little Tennessee River.
The boat dock site is short dis
tance from the south shore.
The area, approximately 100 miles
west of Asheville, N. c., is accessible
over United States highway No. l29
and a new road from Deals Gap, on
the TenneSSee-North Carolina line
Skyline drive is to become link in
routes to the dam under conStruc-
ton plans already formulated. A
highway is to cross the dam and
extend through Great Smoky Park
to Bryson City, N. c., there to join
United States highway No. 10. The
proposed highway will connect with
the Blue Ridge parkway, which be-
gins at the southern end of Skyline
drive. Busline transportation to
the area is available from Wash
ington.
Although IVA is a partner to the
contract for operating the recrea-
ton area and Fontana Village, Gov

Outcome of City Yard Strike Mav Create B BitterAftermath

The City Yards gates were with out pickets today for the first time since Oct. 30, with Local 677 of the International Brotherhood of Team sters having ordered the end of the strike following the action of the Board of Works yesterday afternoon in rejecting all union requests and declaring vacant the jobs of all strik- CTS.
 Further conflict between the city and the A. F. L.. union may develop as result of the announced in- tention of Superintendent of Streets Herbert Scott-Smith to refuse reem- ployment to some of the strikers. He said that most were being hired back but that others, presumably strike leaders. would not be rehired.
 The vote by the Board of Works to fire the city strikers was bitterly criticized today by Local ls35, Tn- ternational Association Of Machin- ists. an independent union. Tn a letter to Mayor John s. Monagan, President James Coffey Of the local said that the L A. M. membership at a meeting last night went on record as condemning the unprece- dented action of the Waterbury Board of Works discharging em- ployes of the Municipal Street De- pertinent"
 These employes sought to use the right of collective bargaining given to them by an act Of Con- gress," said the union president. [" How can this city deny them this right?"
 "Is this city going to set a prece- dent of firing those who use this right7 We of iano= have fought too hard to earn this right and we def- initely will not stand idly by while our duly elected municipal repre- sentatives try to enforce such a precedent"

SoIon Plans More Probes In Congress

Washington, Nov. 9. CUP)-It ape peared likely today that the new Congress will dig further into the Pearl rarbor and war contract scandals.
 Resumption of the inquiries under Republican sponsorship was hinted strongly by Sen. Owen Brewster tR.-Me.), who is in line to become chairman of the Senate War In- vestigating Committee, which Pres iden. Truman once headed.
 The committee already is making preliminary studies of American Military Government in Germany. the Administration housing pro- gram, and the dream house" ale legedly presented as a gift to Sen. Theodore c. Bilbo. (D.-Miss), by war contractors.
 Brewster hinted strongly that the committee will embark on a whole sale investigation of war contracts if the Senate extends its life beyond June 30, l947, when it is scheduled to die.
 The StosuVO,UUO CarSSOu HluAlibiotlS case. aired this Summer, was only a curtain raiser" on the war BcanG- als stage, Brewster said-"just a peek in the sideshow."
 The Carson case only involved Si00000,000 or whereabouts. With $500, ,000, ,000, 900 altogether, there ought to be a vast field for in- vestigation," he said.
 Brewster said Republicans may reopen the Pearl Harbor inquiry in a search for secret diplomatic developments in the years preceding Japan's sneak attack on the Hawaiian naval base.
 He said that partisan restric- tions" blocked investigation Of im- portant diplomatic matters during the first inquiry, adding:
 T hope some day the entire di- plomatic record will be written for the American people to see. We were never permitted to get it. l think the people are entitled to it in the interests of preventing an- other war"

Figures announced by the head quarters of President Reid Robinson give him a margin of more than 5000 in his bid for reelection as president of the International Union of Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers, C.1.o The tally, reported virtually complete, gives the incum- bent 36535 votes to 30.l06 for his opponent, James J. Leary, now sec- retary-treasurer of the internation- al.
 The Committee for Unity and Progress, which led the campaign against President Robinson, has already challenged the announced figures and will press its claims when the unions board of canvass CTS meets in Chicago Dec. to be- gin an official tabulation of the vote cast Nov. {.
 The announced figures mean an- other defeat for the anti-Robinson forces within the union, which have been fighting the president and his alleged Communist sympathies since i040. The Robinson oppon- ents, however. say the election isn't official yet" and hints that they may have some surprises to offer when the canvasSing board, controlled by Mir. Robinson, meets.
