Mrs. Norton Declares
She Has No Apology
For Rap at Harley
By the Assoeioied Press

Representative Mary Norton, DEM
ocrat, of New Jersey, who told her
House colleagues yesterday she had
mo respect for the man who sue
|ceeded her as chairman of the House
Labor Committee, said she had no
apology today.
II gave plain answer to a plain
question" she said firmly.
Mrs. Norton. first woman to be
elected to Congress under women's
suffrage, made her denunciation of
Chairman Hartley, New Jersey Re-
publican. during debate on pro-
posed new labor legislation.
/ Asked by Representative O'Toole,
Democrat, of New Jersey why she
chose to resign In this Congress
from the Labor Committee which
she had headed for 10 years, Mrs.
Norton, with no show OF emotion,
and looking straight at Mr.. Hart
ley, replied:
Frankly, in one sense I regret
the question was asked. I never
knowingly have hurt any member
on either side.
Reason for Leaving Committee.
But have no respect for the
present chairman of the committee.
In the 10 years I was chairman of
the committee, the gentleman from
New Jersey, who comes here and
talks as if he knew something about
labor, attended exactly six meetings
in 10 years.
THAT is my reason for leaving
the Labor Committee"
Mr. Hartley, his face red, told the
House he would not use his own
words in reply to remarks that
might more properly have been
withheld"
He restricted himself to reading
letter, he said had been sent to all
American Federation of Labor
unions in his district by AFL Presi-
dent William Green. The letter,
written in 1940, described him, MIR.
Hartley said, as an outstanding
friend of labor" and urged support
for him in the elections of that year.
Mrs. Norton was drafted into poll
tics by Mayor Frank Hague of Jer-
I sey City, her home town. after she
had attracted wide local attention
for her work in helping to care for
underprivileged children during
World War I.
Elected to Congress in 1924.
In her first venture into politics In
1928 she was elected freeholder--
supervisor-of Hudson County. She
resigned to campaign for Congress
and was elected in 1924 and has
been successfully reelected.
She has sparkling wit that even
lengthy sickness last year couldn't
even begin to erase. Almost fully
recovered now, Mrs. Norton says, 81
only have to be careful"
She describes her IL successive
terms in Congress as a great ex-
perience" and says she fully expects
to seek another.
And" she said emphatically, II
fully expect that if the present
Congress continues in the way it
has started there isn't a doubt In
my mind that the Democrats will
win control in 1948."
Sometimes, she says, developments
on the House Aoor make me 50
angry that 7 could almost cry"
But I wouldn't. I'd choke first.
and then go home and have a good
cry

officials explained today why the
civil suit was filed in addition to
the indictment.
The indictment, they said, applies
only to the two associations as cor
porations. No individuals were in
dicted. A Justice Department
spokesman commented that 1t "ap-
parently" would have been imprac-
tical to indict all members of the
national association and Washing
ton board and possibly unfair to in
dict present officers or directors,
most of whom were elected for COM
paratively short terms.
Conviction of the two associations
would result in fine up to $1,000
in each instance.
THAT would provide the punish
ment for specific violations as
charged" the official explained.
The main purpose of the civil suit
is to obtain further relief for the
Government by preventing such
alleged violations in the future by
the two associations and their direc-
tors, officers and members"

Veach and Dwight Griswold, head
OF the American aid mission.
10y Henderson, chief of the de-
partment's Division of Near East
Affairs, left by plane following re-
ports from Athens that Mr.. Mac
Veach and Mr.. Griswold were not
in complete accord concerning the
Greek cabinet crisis.
The reports, published in Athens
but not confirmed here officially,
stemmed from the separate con-
ferences the two have been holding
with Greek party leaders in an
effort to speed the formation Of a
new government.
Disagreement Denied.
Athens dispatches quoted Mr..
Griswold, former Nebraska Cover
nor, as saying he did not believe
there was a basic disagreement"
and that he and Mr.. MacVeach
really see eye to eye on their goals.
Mr.. Henderson's departure last
night was disclosed in a formal
State Department announcement
which said only that he will consult
with both officials and return short
ly to give a firSt-hand report on
AL aspects of the current situation
in Greece to Acting Secretary of
State Robert A. Lovett.
One well-posted official said pri-
vately that If there is a squabble
over there Henderson will straighten
it out"
Several members of Congress
voiced concern over the contem-
plated division of authority between
Mr.. Griswold and Ambassador Mac
Veagh before the aid mission left
for Athens last month.
Mr.. GrisWold assured the House
| Appropriations Committee during
hearings on the $30O,000,O00 pro-
gram that he would undertake to
obtain full instructions on the point
from Secretary of State Marshall
and Mr.. Lovett before leaving to
administer the program.
Dividing Line Never Settled.
II want to know that I am to have
the authority so far as this mission
is concerned and the Ambassador
will be in an advisory capacity on
the political situation in Greece, 4"
Mr.. Griswold told the committee.
However, the dividing line never
has been publicly staked out.
Dean Acheson, then Undersecre-
tary, was questioned persistently
during the hearings and expressed
the belief there would be no conflict.
Mr.. Acheson said he did not have
the "faintest idea" who would have
the higher relative rank. He added
that normal political problems"
were in the Ambassadors realm, and
Mr.. Griswold would be supreme in
his command"

tial appointee but reports to the

Frank Y. Hale Dies;
Began Federal Career
As Page in House

Frank v. Hale, 10, retired Govern
ment clerk who at the age Of IA
was supporting his family as page
boy In the House, died yesterday at
his home, 1929 Garfield street NV.
Eldest son in the large family OF
the late Douglas Hale, he was forced
to seek employment after his
fathers Civil War injuries prevented
him from working. The young ma
tive Of Tennessee was appointed to
his position in the House by his
uncle, the late Representative Rob-
ert Vance, Democrat, of North Caro-
lima.
His wife, Mrs. Gertrude Hale,
said her husband spoke little about
his experience as congressional
messenger, other than that he was
forced to get his education as best
he could. Although he attended
night school here for a time, she
said. he educated himself mainly by
reading during moments snatched
from his duties.
Always interested in the activities
Of Congress, he used to spend many
hours attending sessions of the
House, she reported.
Mr.. Hale was proud of the fact
that two Of his ancestors represent
their State in the Capitols Statu-
airy Hall, his wife said. They are
Senator Zebulon Vance, former
Governor Of North Carolina and
longtime Senator, and John Sewer.
first Governor of Tennessee and
hero Of the Revolutionary Wars
Battle Of Kings Mountain. Sena-
tor Vance was his uncle and Gov.
Sewer his great-grandfather.
After passing the age limit for
pages, Mr.. Hale worked for a time
for the Southern Railway and then
re-entered Government service. He
retired in 1886 after many years as
a civilian clerk in the payment and
allotment division of the Coast
Guard.
Mr.. Hale was the last descendant
OF his family.
Funeral services will be held at
2:30 pm. tomorrow at the w. r..
Humphrey funeral home, 1857 Wis
consin avenue, Bethesda. Burial will

special assistant to the Attorney
General, announced others will be

for perhaps a week or more.
The jury which, on Wednesday
indicted the real estate boards, on
antitrust violation charges, may be

a broader inquiry into the housing

prosecutors said yesterday they
would not need the jury's services
for the time being. But the jury
will be busy on routine criminal
cases, the United States Attorney
Office reported.
Next Week May See Food Probe.
The broadened housing investiga-
tive program is understood to be a
part of the Justice Department S
accelerated drive to determine pos
sible antitrust law violations in con-
nection with housing, clothing and
food prices.
Meanwhile, the indictment against
the WREB and NAREB held prin-
cipal attention today. The ma
tional association declared it would
fight this indictment" NAREB
President Morgan L. Fitch of Chi
cago attacked the charges as an
outrage" and sad commentary
upon the present status of law
enforcement in the country" He
said the association looked upon the
Justice Departments move as a
reprisal.
Significance Seen in Timing.
"NAREB frankly told the adj
ministration and Congress what
we believe should be done concern
ing housing in the public interest,
he said. 1T seems an outrage that
we cannot do this without danger
Of reprisals.
Apparently the time has come
when a citizen of this country can
not speak out without being served
notice that he does so at the peril
of criminal prosecution. 1t seems
significant to many realtors that
this Indictment sought by the De-
partment of Justice should have
come at this particular moment.
NAREB and realtors have for a long
time been seeking to protect prop
erty owners by opposing certain
types of Federal legislation de-
signed to maintain indefinitely and
permanently the controls of Gov
eminent over the homes and prop
erty of the Nation.
IN view of the charges brought
against this association, 1t is ap-
parent that Nationwide demands
by veterans groups, public bodies
and Government agencies for COL
liberation among the various ele-
ments in the housing industry in
order to produce better communities
at lower costs would subject any
participants to criminal charges by
the Department of Justice"
