'OPA Death
 Wifi Delay Housinq

Washington, June 19 - GUP) - The breakdown in price controls proposed in the present legislation to extend the OPA would set back the nations low-cost homebuilding program by two years, Housing Ex- pediter Wilson w. Wyatt said today.
 Uncontrolled prices under the impact of present shortages might even result in a disastrous tailspin in home building at any price" he said.
 Wyatt said the housing program SO far has thrown encouraging re- suits and prospects are bright for "a record upward march in produc- tion."
 As bottlenecks and delays are overcome under present price con- trols, a downward trend in costs will result, he predicted. Imitation can end these pros- poets, however, by driving prices beyond the capacity or willingness: of most people to pay" he said.
 He cited survey by the Veter' ans Administration in April whicf pointed out that most veterans would not be able to get adequat' living quarters until real estat' prices go down.
 The survey showed that S1 per cent of the married veterans inter viewed felt they could not pay nor than $49 a month to buy home About 84 percent of those 'plannin to rent said they could not effor' to pay more than $49 8 month.

Truman Proises Unity Program Of Red Cross

Philadelphia, June 10- UP - President Truman told the Amer ican Red Cross today that it can become a great force for unity among the peoples of the world.
 In a message to the organizations first post-war national convention which opened yesterday, the Presi- dent said that because of its global work the emblem of the Red Cross can mean more than help and serv- ice to individuals.
 '"This broader role provides new challenges and greater opportllni- ties and, along with them, heavier and more sobering responsibilities, l" he said. Tn the continuance of our diligent work toward a just and en- during peace it is very heartening to observe that however people may differ on political and economic is- sues, under the banner of the Red Gross they can unite for the bet terment of mankind"
 Basil OCpnnor, Red Gross nation- al chairman, earlier said the or- ganization was prepared for any eventuality-even another war.
 Tt certainly isn't safe to assume that there will not be another con- flict," he said in a pre-convention press conference.

BI loom Wants .Argentines
 Armed %

Washington, June 19- UP) - Chairman Sol Bloom, (D.-N.Y), of the House Foreign Affairs Commit tee, said today the United States proposes with Congressional ap- proval to help arm Argentina as well as other American nations.
 T say, if we don't do this, all other countries able to supply mu- nitions are down in South America now" Bloom told the House Rules Committee in appealing for ap- proval of a bill to provide for inter American military cooperation.
 Rep. Eugene Cox, (D.-Ga.), asked Bloom whether the proposed inter- American military cooperation would include Argentina.
 Bloom replied that Argentina must be included under terms of the Chapultepec agreement. The agreement provides, among other things, for mutual defense of the Americas. Argentina is signatory.
 Cox then demanded to know how i've fell into the error of going down to Argentina and try to run their politics for them?"
 Bloom avoided a direct reply.
 we get along with the rest of the South American countries" he said. We didn't get along with Argentina. But now with Messer- smith George Messersmith, Am- bassador to Argentina) down there. we ought to get things strengthened out"

 Capital
 On Last Lap
Former President ExpI0ins to Cubons Needs of Hunqry

Havana, June 19-(UP)-Formel President Herbert Hoover will re- turn to the United States today on the final lap of a journey that has carried him all over the world in the effort to find food for the hun gry.
 He will leave Havana at g A. M. today and probably will be back in Washington this afternoon.
 He has made his world trip as chairman of President Truman's Famine Emergency Committee.
 Summer Months Critical
 Hoover told Cuban authorities last night that the next three monthS-June, July and August will be the critical period that may determine how many persons will die of hunger and starvation.
 He said the gravest crisis now ex- iStS in the old world, where about 400, 900 tons of foodStuffs are needed monthly until the September crops come in.
 Hoover was the guest of the Cu- ban republic at a dinner in the Presidential Palace last night.
 He told high representatives of the government that, all possible aid must be given to the hungry peoples of the world during the coming critical three months to avoid a situation of social and political chaos with unforeseeable conse- quences."
 Conferences Plentiful
 The dinner climaxed a day full of conferences. Earlier, Hoover told President Ramon Grau San Martin that Americas efforts to keep Europe from starving represent something far greater than a mere humanitarian enterprise.
 Hoover said nearly 100000, 900 persons in the world now are get ting diet of only 900 calories 8 day, the same as the "Nazis gave their prisoners in concentration camps"
 He said another 100000 are get ting only 1900 calories daily, far below the 2,000-calory minimum re- qutred for health.

New Comet to
 Dutch Priest

Rome, June 19 - (UP) - In the Vatican Observatory at Castel Con- dolfo, near Rome, eight Jesuit priests recently discovered and log ged the progress of a new comet.
 The principal discoverer was Brother Matthew Timmers, Dutch priest, who first observed the comet Feb. 1 during night observation in the observatory on the shores of Lake Albano, the site of Pope Plus KITS summer home. The comet, now known as the Timmers Comet, has shown mo- tion of one degree per day, rising in a northward direction. Logged duirng several nights, its track was charted to show it will go within IS degrees of the Pole Star, thus placing 1t in a favorable position for observers in the Northern Hemisphere.
 The discovery, as well as all ac- tivity at the Observatory, has keen ly interested Pope Plus, who often spends time observing the heavens when he is living at his summer home. The eight priests at the ob- servatory work under the direction of Father John w. Stein of Hol- land. in their well-equipped labor atory, they are able to analyze specimens of meteorites sent from all over the world.
 The Observatory the Specola Vaticana-was located in Vatican City until 1883, when severe elec- trical interference with delicate equipment forced Vatican directors to move to Castel Gondolfo in 1884
 The huge twin cupolas, one for the giant astrographic telescope and the other for the camera, are the nerve centers of the observa- tory.
 Equipmenti is electrically con trolled, with only a push of but ton needed to open or shut the roof, move the walls or elevate ol lower the telescope. The largest lens has a magnifying power of 85i times normal.

at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md.
 Maj.-Gen. Everett s. Hughes, chief of Army Ordnance, said re- search and development activity already is gradually outmodine many standard weapons used in World War II. He predicted that rapid strides would be made in the immediate future.
 Ordnance officials said the weap- ons may prove to be the answer to what is needed to stop atomic bombs and explosive-laden rockets
 They said scientific research work at Aberdeen and other Army re- search establishments may improve greatly their understanding of the high-speed metallic jet. It applies to the explosion process the prin- ciple of the nozzle on a hose. In- stead of the force of the explosion being dispersed in all directions, 1t is concentrated in a narrow stream multiplying it's penetrating power hundred-fold or more.
 Fighter aircraft would fire the metallic jets instead of conventional bullets or projectiles.
 Fighter pilots using this new weapon could fire a stream of metal particles that no known arrnor could defect.
 The guided, air-borne bazooka- type missile would be a triple threat, carrying penetrating, ex- plosive and incendiary power. Ord nance experts said it would be DOW erful enough to penetrate armor and destroy the warhead of a tar get missile whether composed of atomic explosives or conventional explosives"
 Technically called a hollow charged anti-aircraft missile, this weapon would be employed much in the same manner as an anti-air- craft gun was used against planes during the war If an approaching atomic bomb or explosive rocket were picked up on radar screen, the flying bazooka would be fired into the air and guided SO as to in- tercept and explode the attacking weapon.
 Both experiments involve the shaped charge" principle. The shaped charge is cylinder of TINT with a cone-shaped hole hollowec out of its front end.

Weapons Tested Army Experiments On Atomic Bomb, Rocket Defenses

Washington, June 19-(UP)-The Army is experimenting with two fantastic new weapons that may provide defense against atomic bombs and rockets, 1t was disclosed today.
 One is 8 guided, air-borne "ba- zooka" type weapon powerful enough to penetrate armor and de- stroy atomic or explosive rockets in flight.
 The other is metallic jet capa- ble of shooting stream of metal particles at an initial speed of 25,- GOO feet a second. Tests are under way to determine it's maximum range.
 Many Weapons OutmOded

 DIGESTIVE TRACT

And Stop Dosing Your Stomach
 With Soda and Alkalizers Don't expect to get real relief from headache, sour stomach, gas and bad breath by taking soda and other alka- lizers if the true cause of your trouble is constipation.
 In this case, your real trouble is notim the stomach at all. But in the intestinal tract where 80% ofyour foodis digested. And when it gets blocked it fails to digest properly.
 What you want for real relief is not soda or an alkalizer-but something to s'unblock" your intestinal tract. Some thing to clean it out effectively-help Nature get back on her feet.
 Get Carter's Pills right now. Take them as directed. They gently and effec- lively "unblock" your digestive tract. This permits your food to move along normally. Natures s own digestivej juices can then reach it. You get genuine relief that makes you feel really good again. Get Carter's Pills at any drugstore- 25f.
