Senator Fulbright, Democrat, of
Arkansas said today the Recon-

called before Congress to answer
charges that it is "out to kill" the
prefabricated housing industry.
The accusations were leveled
against the multi-million-dollar
Government lending agency in
connection with it's foreclosure
action against the Lustron Corp,
a big prefab manufacturer in Co.
lumbus, Ohio. Members of the
Senate Banking Committee are

Leo Goodman, director of the
CIO National Housing Committee,
told the Senators yesterday he has
evidence that RFC did everything
to prevent the use of Lustron
houses" in armed services projects.
He added:
Il charge specifically that the
RFC is out to kill this industry" :"
He told reporters later he re-
ferred to the entire industry-not
just Lustron. Senator Fulbright,
who heads a subcommittee which
has been looking into the Lustron
case. promised to check up on Mr..
Goodman's evidence.
A group Of Lustron dealers de-
clared at yesterdays hearing that
the RFC filed it's receivership suit

was about to start earning a profit.
The suit is under way before the

New York Tightens Rules
On Theafer Ticket Sales
By the Assoeiafed Press

NEW YORK, Mar. New
York City has clamped strict, new
rules on the sale of theater tickets.
The tighter supervision was
imposed yesterday following a
lengthy ticket-scalping investiga-
ton during which "a ticket agen-
cies were closed for overcharging
or other offenses.
The new regulations require
ticket brokers to keep detailed
records on all sales, and forbid
charging any premium or bonus
above the standard 75-cent-a-
ticket brokers' fee.
Exchanges of tickets between
brokers are limited under the new
rules, to prevent one broker from
cornering a large block of tickets
for any particular show.
Violators may lose their licenses.
The probe into theater ticket
sales was ordered by Mayor Will
liam O'Dwyer after reports that
tickets to hit shows were selling
as high as $50 apiece.

Communists in Court

Justice Frankfurter has done well to spell
out the reasons which presumably motivated
the full court in deciding to proceed on Decem-
ber with argument in the case of the II
Communist leaders convicted of conspiring to
teach and advocate forcible overthrow of this
Government.
The Communists pleading inability to secure
the services of counsel they wanted from the
American bar had asked for delay to enable
a British lawyer to represent them. The court
said they could have the lawyer of their choice,
but that the case must proceed as scheduled.
What Justice Frankfurter has done is to
dispel any notion that the court would be nflu-
enced by the appearance of a "big name lawyer,
and to point out that the five attorneys who
appeared for the defendants in the lower courts
are especially qualified" to represent them in
the court of last resort. If this were not So, as

nNE of the worlds most remarkable
" statesmen celebrated his Both birth
day yesterday. His name is Juho Kusti
Paasikivi. He Is the President of Fin
land. For something like half CEN
tury, he has been making a career of
the hardest diplomatic job there is
dealing with Russia. The fact that
there is such thing as Finland today
is substantial proof that Mr.. Paasikivi
has learned thing or two about his
job.
1t is of course, specialized job. for
Finland occupies a special position in
relation to Russia. American policy
makers are unlikely to- find in the
"Paasikivi system" the answer to their
own Russian problems. But this does
not mean that there is anything about
Finlands relations with Russia which
makes them any easier to work out than
ours. On the contrary, of course, Fin
lands survival. in the very mouth of the
Bear. must be rated as one of the mira
cles of modern world politics.
The "Paasikivi system has been
called "appeasement" by lot of people
people. that is, who have the advan-
tage of being able to speak from safe
distance. If it is appeasement, how
ever, it seems to be controlled. calcu-
lated variety. Mr.. Paasikivi apparently
has mastered the art of making the con-
cesSions necessary to survival, at the
same time firmly drawing "the line" as
the London Observer put it yesterday,
beyond which any concession would de-
feat its object" .-.-
When he took over the Finnish gov
ernment after the war. the first thing
MIR. Paasikivi did was to make public
bow to an obvious geographical fact.
Finland, he said, could only exist as
a nation If it had the confidence of Rus
sia. Since that day, Finland has come
through on schedule with every one of
her legal obligations toward the Soviet
including the heaviest of war repara-
tions. Finland, at the same time, has
steered clear of formal associations with
the West-the Marshall Plan and West
ern Union were not for her Mr. Paasi-
XVI obviously has been determined to
avoid giving Russia the slightest excuse
for suspecting Finland's intentions.
But the coin has it's other side. In
1948, for example, the Finnish Commu-
nistS threatened to seize power. Mr..
Paasikivi moved fast. Overnight, the
Communist Minister of the Interior was
bounced out of Office and the incipient
coup squelched. Today, the Finnish
Communists still can muster 20 per cent
OF the total national vote. But Finland
