Contrary to reports now being circulated. The Federal Civil De fense Administration has and will continue to recommend the use of suitable basements in pri- vate homes and many commercial buildings as shelters against en- emy air attacks with atomic bombs. This statement was made recently by Ray D. Spencer. Di- rector of the FCDA Shelter Divi- sion.
 "A suitable basement is one where the hazards from utilities and water mains do not exist or have been eliminated" i" MT. Spen- cer said. Such a basement must have more than one exit and pro- lection from the overhead col lapse that may result within the heavy damage radius of an atomic bomb burst"
 MT. Spencer, well known in en- gineering and construction circles throughout the United States, stated that, in evaluating the shelter question, two things must be kept in mind.
 l. There has been too little actual experience on which to draw for realistic criteria on shel ters against atomic attack. Blast effects data from convential bombs do not adequately apply to the blast effects of atomic bombs.
 2. The actual amount of pro- lection afforded by any shelter depends on the type of atomic explosion--w whether air, ground, underground or Water--and the distance of the shelter from the bomb.
 The FCDA official revealed also that studies by an engineer ing panel will be made available to the public in the near future, and that these studies will detail the criteria necessary to establish ment of a firm national shelter program.

 It was stressed in the booklet Survival Under Atomic Attack" that, in general, a persons over all chances for survival would be best in a basement. This state ment still is true for persons who do not have access to properly de signed shelters. In specific cases however, it required modification.

Now's Good Time to Look for Fire Hazards
By Dovid 6. Boreuther

A DANCE Gus man is the house
holder who yawnS over Fire Pre-
ventlor4 Week and says. Il got
plenty lnSurance-why worry?"
Hes the kind of man who has
to lea:n through bitterest expert
ence that YOU can't put a dollar
sign tn everything.
And why worry?
Here's why: A beautiful coun-
try hnlse burned in the night on
Long Island just recently Flames
cut Oil the stairway A woman
broke a leo by leaping from an
upstairs window Two older chill
dlen slid down a doWnspout to
safety But two younger children
were burned to death!
Such traeedieS occur frequently
A nan gets his family into the
house tucked in for the night
locks The doors and has a feeling
of security that he can't get any
place except in his own home
But is he sensible enough to guard
that security with ordinary vigil
ance against fire hazards? Ap-
parertiy not often enough.
And even if he has good watch,
dog and LlstallS fire alarms and
what not, and can get his family
out safety in a fire. he's still the
loser nc matter how much in
sura.lce he has No home can be
fully insured.
For example, widow who was
burned out in a very famous
fire, wrote to her relatives that
she Fever could have a home
again A house. yes. Her fire in
surance ard savings in the bank
wouln build another house. But
the work Of the best carpenters
and upholsUerers could not replace
the t,vs of son who had died
in cti.dho"d, nor the Bible her
motheI had given her, nor the in /
Vulnerable memories attached to
everything in the house-which
had made it her home.
How can you insure a few
battered toys? You can cover
their market value. the same as
you Tan insure an oil painting, or /
q star p collection. But the insur- .
ance money will not replace the
toys. nor the work of art. nor
the time ard care you invested in
your hobby. Sentimental value is
not il'Suranle. :
So beyond adequate insurance
1t is up to the householder to take
several precautions himself. I
Fire department inspectors are
supplied with a set of suggestions
by the National Board of Fire
Underwriters. These suggestions
are OF use to householders. If you
don't know what to look for when
inspecting your house for hazards,
you'll know what the fire depart
ment would look for.
Here is the list in order 4
/. Check the roof. Roofing that
is old and warped can catch sparks
and flying brands.
2. Loose chimney bricks, open
joints or cracks may allow hot
flue gases to set fire to woodwork. I
3. Dry grass. leaves. papers and
branches in the yard are fire haz-
ards to buildings.
4. Sheds and garages should be
kept free of litter.
5. Oil and kerosene containers
should be substantial. No gaso- \
line, benzine or naptha should be
kept in dwelling.
6. Waste paper and discarded
furniture are unnecessary hazards !,

Music
Ovation Accorded
Carolyn Schultz
In Song Recital
By Elena de Soyn

Carolyn Schultz, resident COL
oratura soprano. scored an ovation
in the Phillips Gallery last night
with her singing of Bachelet's
"Chere Mutt" and of 20 legere
hirondelle" from Gounod's Mir
ellie"
Her lovely voice. pure and un-
constrained. responded with ease
and security to the technical de-
mands of the aria and to the
exigencies of tone control in
Bachelet's number. Each of these
selections. SO different in their
requirements, places considerable
demands on the art of vocalization.
Miss Schultz has the gift of rec
onciling the purely lyric element
in song with a scintillating dis
play of fioritura. such as the rarely
heard aria abundantly contained.
1t seemed that by stepping
forward and taking her position
parallel the arch of the audi
torium, the singer added more
volume to her voice in the third
group. which began with "Salut
la France" from Donizetti's La
File du regiment" There was
greater resonance. as compared
to her singing of the "Ballatella" ;"
from Leoncavallos "Pagliacci," of
an Italian and of a German group
of songs. Pleasing as they were,
none sounded quite as ample as
Bachelet's "Chere Mutt" and Gou-
mods aria. Yet VOLTS exuberant
"Er lists" called forth already
enthusiastic applause in the pre-
ceding group, compelling Miss
Schultz to give an encore.
Her sound musicianship, expert
Ience and sympathetic approach to
all Of the Songs on the program
made her recital most enjoyable.
Paul Higinbotham added to it by
providing a clean-cut and efficient
accompaniment at the piano.

The main impetus came during
the first hour when buying de-

minutes behind actual deals.
Immediately after the first
surge, prices held to around their
best-which seldom went beyond
a dollar. Profit taking was read
