Senator Schoeppel. Republican,
of Kansas, yesterday asked a Sen
ate committee to determine "ex-
actly what the records of the
House Un-American Activities
Committee contain with respect
to- Secretary Of the Interior
Chapman.
In a letter to Chairman O'Ma-
honey Of the Senate Interior Com
mittee. Senator Schoeppel pressed
his demand for a deeper investi-
CATION of what he regards as evi-
dence of Communist activity in
the Interior Department.
Earlier yesterday the Senate
Republican Policy Committee
through it's chairman, Senator
Taft of Ohio, declared it "disa-
VOWS all responsibility for Senator
Schoeppel's charges" Following a
Senate speech last Tuesday by the
Kansas Senator, Mr.. Chapman
appeared at a committee hearing
and made a blistering reply to
those charges.
Senator O'Mahoney later told
Senator Schoeppel that the COM
mittee would grant his request to
present new documents and wit
neSses.
Fav0rs Alaska Statehood.
Repeating his earlier state
ments that he favors statehood
for Alaska and Hawaii and that
he does not accuse any public Of
fetal of disloyalty or perjury
Senator Schoeppel stated that
Mr.. Chapman denied under oath
that he was a member Of the
American League for Peace and
Democracy or the American
League Against War and Fascism.
Senator Schoeppel said he
hoped with all my heart" that
Mr.. Chapman told the truth. How
ever. he said. documentary evil
dence" that Mr.. Chapman was a
member of these groups led him
to insist on continuing the in
vestigation.
+ Senator Schoeppel asked the
Senate committee to take these
steps:
Il. Subpoena the chief inves-
tigator or the research director
of the House American Activi-
ties Committee to testify specifi-
cally and in detail as to exactly
what the records of the House
committe contain with respect TO
Mr.. Chapman.
This should include copies OF
all correspondence, letterheads,
etc. The names of all officers OF
the organizations listed should be
subpoened for their testimony
relative to the membership of
Secretary Chapman in the organi-
zation or for the use of his name
on any lists. letterheads. etc.
Loyalty Oath Cited.
"2. Subpoena responsible heads
of all Government departments to
determine whether or not the
practice of omitting the loyalty
portion of the oath of Office is
as general in Government as Sec
retary Chapman claims.
MY information is that the
Civil Service Commission and the
Department of State and the De-
partment of Justice, for example.
will not accept any oaths that are
in the least defaced or marked. as
were the Chapman and Strauss
oaths."

Mr.. Truman may invoke such
wage and price controls if prices
rise sunreasonably" above that
leyel-the month preceding the
Communist attack in Korea.
Need for Rent Controls.
There was a hint that such con-
trolls may come more quickly than
expected, for Mr.. Truman said it
was not certain yet whether the
new law would permit effective
piecemeal price controls.
"As result" the President said,
I'VE might have to resort to gen.
eral controls before they are
really necessary. This may prove
to be serious defect in the law
which will require correction"
Mr.. Truman said a second de-
feet in the law is. the lack of
authority "for adequate rent con-
troll"
What we gain in holding down
other cost-of- f-living prices must.
not be lost by failure to hold down
the cost Of shelter Mr.. Truman
declared.
THE existing rent law is in
adequate to meet the present sit
uatlon and should be improved.
State and local gov
ernments should take the neces-
sary steps to keep the present
rent controls in effect"
Order Delegates Powers.
Mr.. Truman's principal execu-.
tive order - two were issued u
handed the bulk of powers that
will be used at once to Secretary
Of Commerce Sawyer.
These includes the authority to
allocate scarce materials needed
in the defense efforts. establish
prioritles for military orders and
to set up inventory controls to-
boarding.
Other powers were delegated as
follows:
Secretary of Interior Chapman
petroleum. gas, solid fuels and
electric power.
Secretary of Agriculture Bran
nan-food and domestic distribu-
ton of farm equipment and fer
tilizer.
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion - domestic transportation,
storage and port facilities. but not
control over air transport, or
coastal and overseas shipping.
Those were placed under Mr.. Saw
yers direction.
RFC to Help With Loans.
The Reconstruction Finance
Corp. was directed 70 make loans
for plant expansion and for kcost-
ing production of needed metals
and minerals.
The General Services Admins
tration, headed by Jesse Larson.
was authorized to purchase needed
materials.
The Federal Board was given
authority for establishing, with
the concurrence of the Housing
and Home Finance administrator,
credit limitations on new houses
and major repairs started after
August 3. However, the Home
and Finance agency was given
relating to Government
loans on real estate involving
home construction.
Secretary of Labor Tobin was
directed to use his Office for meet
ing labor needs in the defense in
dustries and determine, with the
Secretary of Defense and director
of the Selective Service policies
of deferment from military service.
Urges Voluntary Efforts.
Mr.. Truman made a plea for
voluntary efforts on the part of
everyone to make the program
work without further controls. He.
asked housewives and business
men to show restraint in their
purchases.
For the consumer" he added,
"the guiding principle must be.
Buy only what you really need
and cannot do without"
If housewives follow that rllle,
he continued, there will be
enough of the essentials-in fact.

to get home in a hurry.
The travellers got stuck nine
days ago when arrangements fol

tour of Europe broke down. Theil
cash evaporated and some told ol

Spokesman for the group at.
trlbuted their plight to failure o.

tourists paid the service 1885 fol

Besides the three flights ot

Tom Floyd Paris agent for the
travel service, said tonight the

that apparently there just wasn't

Embassy Helps With Loans.
The Tiger Airline previously
completed four round trips for
the travel service clients.
Legal ADVISERS were called in by
the Legion to tell the students

For some, classroom work in the
United States already had started

Some, in dire financial circum-
stances. got small loans arranged
by the American Embassy through
the Travellers Aid Society. Most of
the travellers prepared to spend
the night in low-cost Paris hotels
on their own or borrowed money.
In Burbank. Calf, the Tiger
Airline's headquarters, a spokes-
man said although the flights "are
not completely paid for" arrange

The matter is now being worked
out between the airline and the

THERE was a man in our
Il neighborhood - when l was
about l3 - who knew how to
make gunpowder. Believe me, he
had the double whammy on all
us kids.
His name was Mr.. Nixon.
Every Fourth of July, Hallow-
cen and Christmas, MIR. Nixon
would make up a batch of his
gunpowder an let her 60, lighted
by a homemade cotton fuse that
led to a hollow place in a rock.
As I remember it, the noise
was terrible. But it was the
smoke that really got you. Mr..
Nixon's gunpowder was def
nitely not the smokeless sort.
Stories about Mr.. Nixon al
ways grew with the tellin'. Some
body said he didn't use ordinary
carbon black, he used charcoal.
Next time you heard it, he was
usin' bone charcoal. Next time it
was ground-up human bones -
the bones of boys he caught an
burned in birthstone!
ONE of the grownups in town
must've got onto our fears of
Mr.. Nixon, because Roy Hem
berg's old man collected half a
dozen of us and took US to meet
the gunpowder man in person.
Not only did it turn out MIR.

Initiation Reflected
As Stocks Advance
To 19-Year Peak
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-1nna-
ton tapped out the prices on the
stock market ticker tape this week.
Traders took their cue from
rising prices for automobiles,
vacuum cleaners. wages, clothing.
rents. building materials. dozens
of other items.
The dollar was worth less this
week than month ago. a year
ago, or 10 years ago. The market
recognized the trend.
On Friday stock prices, as
measured by the Associated Press
average Of 60 stocks, climbed to a
19-year high. 1t was the peak Of
q rise that started back in June
194o.
McCabe Speaks Out.
Thomas B. McCabe, chairman
of the Federal Reserve Board,
brought into sharp focus a factor
which has affected the market for
weeks.
He declared that imitation is not
around the corner but here now,
said it was the most pressing in
ternal problem before our country
today"
This was tough language for
highly responsible official.
The week started off with
traders still confused by the strik-
ing success of the United Nations
counter-attack in Korea. The
Korean war, according to 'front.'
line dispatches, would not last
very much longer. Nobody was
quite sure what to make of that
assumption.
Prices advanced on Monday for
the fifth session in row. Tues
day and Wednesday the market
slipped-nothing serious but there
was not enough buying power to
keep the market pointed forward.
Thursday the upward trend was
resumed. Prices responded easily
to comparatively modest demand.
Friday the advance continued and
the market closed at the highest
level since March 1881.
There seemed to be little ques-'
ton that the 1949-50 bull market
was paving it's way ahead once
more.
Profits, Dividends Good.
Aside from imitation, the market
was Influenced, too, by more i'm
mediate considerations. Business
is good, profits are high. dividends
are large. BY the standards of
yesterday a great many stocks are
priced too low in relation to their
earning power. Better still, bust
ness will be good for a long time
before 1t goes bad, as things look
now.
