Voice Of u. s. Probe
Group Asked 10 Take
Poll on Two Questions
By the Assoeiofsd Press

Members OF Congress touring Eu-
rope during the congressional recess
were asked today to make sort OF

situation and (2) whether the State
Departments foreign information
program is effective.
A special Senate-House committee
studying the information service, in
cluding the Voice of America" over

question booklet for use when talk
ing abroad with Americans, with
foreign officials, or just plain people

Among other things, the touring
Congress members are asked to find
out what and how much propa-

whether it is directed against the
United States, and whether "the
United States Information Service
is doing a good job" of selling the
American way Of life.
II Questions Prepared.
Basis for the informal poll on the
refugee problem is a 17-question
mimeographed sheet prepared by
Senator Smith, Republican, of New
Jersey, one of the authors of bill
to admit 100000 war-displaced per-
sons a year for four years.
Some of the questions are:
"Is there evidence that there are
many Communists in the DIP
camps?" and could the DPS be
screened satisfactorily to determine
their eligibility under our immlga-
ton laws?"
Aides of Senator Smith. who also
is chairman of the committee inves-
tigating the information service, said
all Congress members visiting Eu-
rope officially or unofficially have
been furnished with the question

habeas corpus petition through

held that the District Court was
not in error in dismissing IL. The

In June, 1899, a warrant was issued
for his arrest for parole violation,
but he was not served because he
was not found, it was said. In
August, 1943, he was recommitted
to jail on new charges Of forgery
and uttering. In october, 1943,
he received concurrent sentences OF
one to three years on the new
charges. He finished serving out the
sentence on the new charges on
February 4. 1946.
The following day he was arrested
under the 1899 warrant as parole
violator under the old sentence.
In February, 1916, he began serv-

SYNOPSIS

Alison Van Dyke comes to

met Sam that he was the only

iov. Sam was there enjoying his
weekly visit with his small
daughter. He explained that
since his discharge from the

newspaper and farm in nearby
Virginia which his late father
left him. He confided his worry
over Suzy, a shy, nervous child
who became SO upset when in

take her from the room.

CHAPTER SEVEN

When the door closed after
Sam, Alison stood a few mo-
ments with a searching, ques-
tioning look. Then, thinking she
must freshen before Teresa
came home and seeing no one
to tell her where to go, she
walked slowly up the carpeted
steps and stood still again.
The front bedroom with the
broad bed with the white ruff
fled canopy was no doubt Te-
resa's. Next to it was Suzy's
room and, though Alison saw
Miss Winstead putting on Suzy's
red coat and Lodgings presum-
ably to take the child for a
walk. she didn't say anything.
When she saw her bag at the
end of the hall. she walked to-

Teen-Age
Tatt|er
This past weekend meant

This past weekend meant a
reunion for hundreds of boys
and girls from college and high
school. Many headed towards
Raleigh from nearby colleges
to join in with the crowd for an
exciting weekend. The Sir Wal
ter Raleigh Hotel seemed to
have been the meeting place as
everyone gathered together once
more. A few of those who were
able to leave their college life
and be with us for a short visit
were Billy Burton, Jimmy Mills,
Billy McEachern, Henry Tru-
love, Charlie Harrington, Neal
Patrick, Ed Pitts, Jimmy Spi-
vey, and Jackie McCauley.
They proved that they hadn't
forgotten their old school by
turning out in full colors to
cheer for the Wildcats. Even
though we were defeated they
were pulling hard and that's
what counts.
Besides the New Hanover
High School squad staying over
in Raleigh there were plenty
more. Janet Holmes, Audrey
Strong and Barbara Cauter
stayed at the Sir Walter. Also
staying there were Nancy
Trask, Jean Bobbitt, Sally Kel-
ly, Libba Roe and Miss Nancy
Easley. Jean Pope and Betty
Britt could be seen wandering
in and out of the Hotel. Gather
inc Grove and Olivia Lynch
were two others fortunate
enough to be there. Carl Brown,
Victor Taylor and dozens of
others were seen loafing around
looking for excitement. Poll
Barefoot moved up that way
with his family and stayed in
Wake Forest where Graham
Barefoot, a former Wildcat foot
ball star, is in school.
AS I was eating dinner in the
Hotel coffee shop I glanced
around and saw Betty Yopp.

which she hoped was to be ex-
clusively her own.
She looked at her watch. It
was five o'clock. Since Teresa
would be coming soon there
wasn't time to hang up her
clothes or change her suit.
lhere was time only to wash
her face and put on fresh lip
stick and tidy her hair. When
She saw in the mirror how dis
heveled she looked she was sor-
ry Sam had seen her when she
appeared like this.
When she went downstairs
again she was conscious of the
quietness. Kitty Van Dykes
house had always ratified with
activity - doors opening and
closing and neighbors coming
and going with vegetables and
books and flowers. Though she
liked quietness she knew she
was going to miss dreadfully all
those friendly noises of her
mothers home.
In the living room she picked
up the ash tray she had shared
with Sam. Two cigarets. . Two
cigarets together. Wondering
II her cigaret and his would
ever share such proximity
again, she carefully and rather
reluctantly deposited them in
the low-burning fire and watch
ed their disintegration.
She had been sitting a little
while when she heard Miss Win
stead and Suzy come in and
Miss Winstead's saying, Care
full of the steps. DEAR" as they
went upstairs again. And then
because it seemed appropriate
she gave herself up to thinking
of Teresa.
You can believe you know a
person quite well because she
is a relative or an old friend,
but when you begin to think
about her it may surprise you
to realize that you know her
very moderately. Thus. though
there had never been a time
when she had not been con-
cious of her older half-sister and
had always been inexpressibly
proud of her, she had been with
Teresa actually very little.
AS a little girl in New Eng
land with her odd foreign
clothes, her difficulty with the
language, her lack of a father,
and her poor, shabby house, Al
ison had had nothing to boast
of at an age when little girls
try to find at least one thing
they have that is better than
anyone else's. She had had only
Teresa. She could always say,
"My sister is an artist in Bos-
ton" After a bit she could lay,
"My sister is an interior deco
rator in Washington and she has
a fur coat and she wears finger
nail polish on her toe nails, too.
So there!" In late years when
she had entirely outgrown the
desire to boast she could have
added a good. deal more to Te-
resa's accomplishments - her
own and obviously very lucra-
tive business, her house, her
travels, her child. Interior dec
orators, Alison had decided long
ago, must make more money
than anyone else in the world
Her mother had said the same
thing with a puzzled look IN her
faded eyes.

She had come home for the
weekend and had j~ourneyed up
to Raleigh also. Betty is a fresh

but was unable to speak with
her due to the tremendous

by Ebe Goodwin who had brought
her over from W c. for the
game. From other reports l
hear that Winifred has become
very popular at W. C. and like
Betty Yopp is crazy about her
school. Winifred wrote a won
derful column for Sundays pa
per and really covered the news
of the college folks.
Patty Switzerland was home
for the weekend from Flora
Macdonald and returned Mon
day afternoon. Everyone was
mighty glad to see Patty and
hated to see her leave.
Bootie Harriss was also home
this weekend, leaving on Sun

She remembered that when
Teresa came up to Vermont to
visit them she had always look
ed very tentative. Even the way
she sat on a chair-she always
looked first to see if there was
any dust - seemed temporary.
One thing she had always done
with great thoroughness was to
clean the pantry and closets,
her fair hair wrapped neatly in
a pretty kerchief. The house
was lighter by at least a ton
when she left, for Kitty could
not bear to throw anything
away. Also Teresa invariably
rearranged the furniture and, SO
that Alison and her mother
would stop stumbling over it in
the dark, they always moved it
back to the old places after Te-
resa left. Kitty would sigh a
great sigh of relief after one OF
Teresa's brief visits and begin
saving odd bits of food in the
pantry and boxes in the closets.
Alison could sit with her legs
up again and breathe the sweet
ly indolent air that had returned
after the charged atmosphere
that Teresa's presence created.
Hearing the front door open
and close she got up and went
into the hall, seeing Teresa as
she came into her house.
"Hello, dear" Teresa ex-
claimed in her throaty, earthly
voice. II see you found your
way"
A brief embrace, a scented
kiss. Teresa always used thu
most divine perfume.
She wore a green wool dress
and a scarf of sables over her
shoulders. A rather high green
hat sat back from her fine
smooth, fair hair. Her eyes were
large and blue and perceiving.
1t seemed to Alison that Teresa
had always been able to see
things before anyone else so
that she always had a decision
before the other person had be-
gun to make one. Her red
mouth was full, but the sharp
ness of her chin seemed to be
increasing. There was no slack
to her. Shoulders back and chin
up she seemed to march. but
to do it with grace and with a
seductive aloofness. Alison had
often wondered if she ever re-
Taxed. Her mother, who had
spent most of her life cultivat-
ing leisure, had been moved to
say more than once, Relax,
Teresa, relax" But Teresa's
leyes and her body were insa-
tiably curious.
