TinyMother Only Wanted
Someone To Keep Johnny

WASHINGTON. Feb. 24.-W.D
Congress will lend an ear
Monday to the plight of an at
tractive 29-year-old brunett
divorcee who gained some To-
cal fame by advertising for a
husband.
Mrs. Verone Moreno, tiny,
99-pound mother of a four-year-
old ooy. Johnny, admitted Sun
day night that her newspaper
plea for a mate was face
tious." But it brought her
hundreds of phone calls from
interested males and chance
to testify before a Congress-
ional committee.
Mrs. Moreno, who came here
from Oklahoma and is a secre-
tary 1T the Agriculture depart
ment, said this is her prob
lem: The city's children CEN
ter, where Johnny stays during
the day while she works, is to
close this week, along with
others throughout the country
because federal support is to
stop. The question is wha. TO
do with Johnny.
"They told me that if I
would advertise for a husband,
it would be good story for
continuance of the nursery
school, she said. Il agreed for
the good Of the cause"
The story, complete with
pictures of the brown eyed
Mrs. Moreno, who is part ioux
Indian and a good rhumba dan
Ger, attracted several suitors,
including a Latin with ranch
in California. 1t also brought
her 10 attention of Rep. Ned r.
Healy, d., Calif.,) who has
asked her to be a witness Mon
day before the House District
committee.
The committee, Hea1y said,
will not help Mrs. Moreno get
a husband but it wants her as
a real life example" of what
will happen when the child-care
centers close. AS to getting
husband, he added, she will
have to work out her own
methods for that"
She is hopeful that Congress
may provide funds to keep the
district centers open. She said
that on her government salary
OF So, 300. she cannot afford to
send Johnny elsewhere or hire
someone to take care of him.
AS for the telephone suitors,
Mrs. Moreno said she was not
and Goes not intend to see any
OF them. She added that while
waiting for six swains who
made oates by phone last Sun

terested in the all-out emergency

ment Housing Expediter Wilson
w. Wyatt. Here are some ques-
tions regarding the practical as
poets of the program and how it
will directly affect the individual
veteran:
@. My wife and I are inter
ested in getting one o. these ready
made houses the Government is
talking about. We have a lot out in
the country where my father lives.
When we can get a house about
how much would one with three
bedrooms cost?
A. Under the proposed program
the house you want shouldn't cost
more than $5000 This doesn't In
clude freight from the factory and
cost Of erecting 1t, however.
@. Suppose a veteran has the
money and can buy a prefabri-
Gated house. How will he be able
to put it up alone if there is no.
body available to help him?
A. 1t is proposed that before
manufactur is allowed to Of
fer a prefabricate house for sale
he must guarantee to have the
services available for delivering
it as we'll as putting it up.
@. Both my brother and I are
veterans. We have several acres
of land just outside of town. We
want to have it used for emer-
gency veterans housing but it
doesn't have sewer or water con-
nections. Will the Government help
us get the utilities to our land?
A. As the Government program
now stands, it will be up to the
community to help get utilities to
outlying lands and generally to
provide the space for the houses
But if your particular problem, as
applied to the rest o. the country.
becomes serious, the Government
will probably have to step in on
that angle also.

STAUNTON, Va, Jan. w. I.
Woodell, adjutant of the Virginia
Department, Veterans of Foreign
Wars, made public yesterday a
resolution adopted by the Virginia
Department Council of Administra-

Japanese naval officer to testify in
the naval court-martial of Capt.
Charles B. McVay, III, who COM
manded the cruiser Indianapolis
when the vessel went down last
July 30.
The resolution, adopted at a meet
i1ig of the Council in Alexandria,
noted that Representative Daughton,
Democrat, of Virginia had criticized
the court-martial for their despic-
able action" in calling the Japanese
officer. It Endorsed Mr.. Daughton's
statement.
BE the said naval officer guilty
or innocent" the resolution added,
I'VE believe that it is beneath the
dignity OF the American naval estab-
lishment to inject any treacherous
Japanese or other enemy into the
trial and that the American people
will laud Mr.. Daughters stand in
this matter"
