BY the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, July Tt

list summer for Virginia.
The State Chamber of Com
,merce predicts the tourist trade
will reap more than the $400 mil
lion business it did last year.
To take care of the business
surge. the tourist industry, Vir.
.ginia'S third largest business, has
expanded its facilities 20 per cent
over 1850. But the travellers keeE
coming, so heavily, in fact, that
accommodations are still being
taxed to capacity in practically
every section.
The travel business started
picking up late in April, contin-
.ued to increase in May, and really
hit high strides in June. But the
big months are July and August

are being strung out in goodly
numbers along many of the State S

Typical is the case of tourist

We've had to turn away Is OF

The tourist influx is further
borne out in figures given by the
State Highway Department. which
show the traffic volume is up 10
per cent across Virginia.
In some sections it's much
higher than that. Along the Blue

American Delegates
To u. n. Ordered 10
Keep Quiet on Truce
By Ernie Hill
foreign Correspondent of The Stor ond
the Chicago Daily News

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, July
THE American delegation to
the United Nations, an arm of
the State Department. has been
ordered to maintain stony silence
until after the Chinese Commu-
nistS have spoken their lines Tues
day at the KaeSong truce con-
ference.
1t was not an ordinary suggeS-
ton to keep quiet, but an ironclad
order to refrain from affirming.
denying or commenting on any
thing even remotely related to the
armiStice conference or a Korean
peace.
The theory is that one i'll
advised or threatening statement
coming from United States sources
might flush the Chinese and North
Korean Communists into making
impossible political demands be-
fore agreeing to a ceaSe-fire.
The administration. of course, is
unable to stop Republicans from
stating that an armiStice at the
38th Parallel is inadequate and is
virtually surrender to the ag-
greSsorS.
Official Wants Broadcast.
In fact. one Voice of America
official has been trying to get
Washington permission to broad
cast such statements. including
that Of Senator Taft. to Peiping
The Chinese Communists are
claiming in propaganda broad
casts that the peace talks indicate
United States surrender. Some
voice of America officials believe
the Chinese would be helped in
selling that idea if they had SIM
liar statements from some Ameri-
can Senators to back them up.
The American delegation and
the Washington administration
are prepared to claim a great
victory if an armistice is won in
the coming days or weeks.
They are ready TO state that
Communist aggression has been
repelled, South Korea liberated.
FormoSa status unchanged and
Red China still on the outside of
the U. N. looking in. The U. N.
is going TO be slow taking up any
OF these issues once it gets the
shooting stopped.
Red Offensive Likely.
Should the truce talks break
down, big new Communist Of
fensive is expected.
The American pressure for au-I
thority to bomb Red China will
mount quickly. The authority will
not be sought from the 60-mem-
Der General Assembly where it
probably would run into a months
debate. 1t will be sought among
the representatives Of the 16
countries with troops in Korea,
The American delegation be-,
lieves that the issue of peace in
Korea or an expanded war into
Manchuria will be determined at
Kaesong before the end of next
week.
The decision will also set the
pattern for the coming American
political campaign.
A failure to win peace. it is be-
lieved, will be strong weapon in
the hands of supporters of Gen.
Douglas Macarthur, as opposed to
President Truman. The implica-
tionS in that are obvious.

Clubs Pick Clothing

Delaware Home Demonstration
Clubs hutve chosen their clothing
and home furnishing projects for
the next program year, announced
Miss RTth Z. Pearce, clothing spe-
cialist with the Agricultural Exten-
sion Service at the University.
Individual programs are selected
within each county council, in the
Wilmington council, and the Negro
Home Demonstration Clubs in Kent
and Sussex.
Some of the items chosen this
year are slip covers, sewing fin
ishes, silk lampshades and sewing
centers, short cuts in sewing, braid
ed rugs, draperies and curtains,
cOlors that become you and new
fabrics and finishes.
Miss Pearce said that the pro-
jects on sewing screens should be
especially interesting and practi-
cal. Sewing screens are made from
| two wooden frames, covered with
fabric, and hinged. Inside are
pockets for sewing equipment, and
a folding shelf. The whole is port
able and can be put away or set up
very easily. These handy screens
eliminate much of the incOnveni-
ence of sewing in homes where a
special room is not available.
New fabrics and finishes should
also be practical. A multitude of
new luxury and novelty fabrics are
on the market. A knowledge of the
differetn types, cleanability, last
ing qualities, and uses should make
buying easier and more satisfac.

Peninsula Construction
Must Be On Smaller
Buildings

There can be a lot of construc-
tiOn work done on the Delmarva
Peninsula during the next year,
but it will consist mostly of small
er buildings, according to Elias
w. Nuttle, Denton lumber and
building materials dealer and men,
Der of the Public Affairs Commit
tee of the National Retail Lumber
Dealers Association.
Larger homes and commercial
and industrial buildings cannot be
put up without securing permis-
sion in Washington unless they
are designed to require a minimum
of steel and copper, and few per-
mits are being approved" Mr.. Nut
tie said. THAT type of home, how
ever, is extremely rare in our
area"
con the other hand, no permit is
needed to bulld a single-family
home if it uses no structural steel
and not more than 1890 pounds
of other steel and 35 pounds of cop
per or 1,450 pounds of other steel
and 100 pounds of copper, not
counting fabricated building pro-
ducts, such at heating and plumb
ing fixtures, whose weights need
not be considered.
In the case of stores, garages,
warehouses, and other commercial
and institutional buildings, con-
struction can go ahead without a
permit if no more than 1000 lbs.
of steel and 200 lbs. of copper are
to be used in any calendar quar-
ter. The same provision applies in
the case of farm buildings. This
latter provision is of great i'm
pOrtance to the farmers of our
locality.
"In other words, the size of q
new building, except one intended
for amusement or recTeational pur-
poses, is limited only by the guam
tity of critical materials It re-
quires.
ANY type of repair and modern
izatiOn work also can go ahead
without special authorization from
Washington, provided the neces-
sary materials are available. Mod
ernizatiOn and repair work are inn
pOrtant to the many people who
I find it necessary to maintain theiI
property against depreciation; OF
those who wish to add convent
ences or more living space to theiI
present homes"
