You Can Have Paved Terrace With Little Effort

Where q brick surface is Sc
lected, there are any number of
designs which can be used to Sc
cure an interesting and attractive
surface. Squares. oblongs, her
ringbones and straight courses
all are satisfactory. but in each
case the bricks should be laid fiat
and spaced evenly for uniform

Outdoor lounging. dining and
general living is becoming stand
ard practice with most American
families.
An open terrace, preferably
with permanent surface, offers
the ideal area.

cement block wall is filled in with
sand or soil, wetted down. well
tamped and allowed to weather
and settle for a week or two. After
that time the terrace is ready to
be paved or finished.
There are several satisfactory
ways to surface a terrace. One is
with slate flagstone, another with
brick laid in cement mortar, an
other with a concrete slab, and
still another with brick laid dry
in sand. It all depends on how
much money you can afford for
the surface or the amount of
trouble you care to go to.
A neat row of brick laid fiat
over the top of the cement block
wall presents a good edging, and
is easy to keep in repair.

A substantial terrace can be
arranged for and built by prac-
tically any homeowner with little
or no trouble, and the steps to
follow are simple for the amateur
mechanic.
The first move is to excavate
the ground to frost line along the
edge of the terrace site and set
forms 16 inches wide and
inches deep to receive the con-
crete for the footings.
The mix to be used should be
one of cement. two of sand and
three of gravel or crushed stone
After the concrete has set for
three or four days, cement or
cinder block is laid over it to the
desired height for the terrace.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.-Henry w

grand jury in Brooklyn has won
him dismissal of a Government
motion that he be cited for Grim

The contempt motion against
the Washington mystery man was

acted at the request of the United

Grunewald first was threatened
with the contempt motion last
August when he failed to answer
a subpoena. He blamed his alb
Sence on illness.
But since that time he has given
testimony at six appearances be-
fore the grand jury, which is
probing tax corruption.

the grand jury wants me, I'll be

US. Officials Delayed
Action on Beer Firm,
Justice Probers Told
By George Beveridqe

House investigators were told
today the Justice Department last
year delayed and agreed to handle
without adverse publicity" a case
alleging food and drug law viola
tons against the Pabst Brewing
Co. of Milwaukee.
Counsel Robert A Collier out
lined the case in a statement
opening a new series of hearings
before the House Judiciary sub
committee investigating the JUS
tice Department.
McInerney to Testify.
A chief witness was to be AS
sistant Attorney General James
M. McInerney. who last year
headed the departments criminal
division.
Mr.. Collier said the case de-
veloped June 81. 1851, when
food and drug inspection of
corn gritS granary owned by the
PabSt Co. in Peoria, H.. dis
closed Shocking unsanitary con-
ditions in the plant as we'll as
rodent and insect infestation in
the grits." The Food and Drug
Administration sent the case to
the Justice Department for &C
ton in July. 1851.
On July S, 1851, Mr.. Collier said,
the Food and Drug Administra-
ton had instructed it's inspector
and the United States attorney in
Milwaukee to seize 100000 pounds
of the gritS. which had been
shipped to the Wisconsin city.
Before this action was taken,
however, the officers were told the
Justice Department warted them
to suspend the seizure, Mr.. Collier
asserted.
Collier Outlines Case.
Mr.. Collier said it appeared the
Justice Departments criminal di-
vision had wired the officers "re-
questing that the seizure be de-
layed and that such delay was
requested by Raoul Berger, al
Washington attorney representing
the PabSt Brewing Co, who had
assured the Department of JUS
tice that Pabst would keep every
thing intact in case eventual Seiz-
ure be necessary"
John T. Grigsby, a Criminal Di-
vision attorney in the Justice De-
partment. testified he instructed
the United State attorney in Mil
Waukee to hold up seizure of the
gritS after talking with Mr..
Berger.
He said Mr.. Berger, identified as
a former Justice Department az
torney, had assured him PabSt had
closed its Peoria plant and would
keep it closed until sanitary de-
f1ciences were corrected and that
it was willing to destroy all the
grits coming from the plant as
well as beer which had been made
from it. He said the decision to
hold up the seizure was his and
that no one else in the department
took any part in it.
Queried by McGrath Aide.
Before he held up the seizure, |
Mr.. Grigsby said. he was asked
about the status of the case by
Mrs. Grace Stewart, then execu-
tive assistant to former Attorney
General McGrath. After advising
her of the facts, he said, Mrs.
Stewart told him that he would
be contacted by Mr.. Berger. |
William K. Hays, the food and
drug inspector involved in the
case, testified that Pabst officials
told him the reason they didn't
want the legal action applied was
because of the use one of its
"arch- rivals" would make Of it.

Meanwhile, in a tax court hear

A32-year-old mother who earned
$28 a week and had to put her two
boys in a children's home was as
sessed 5000 in additional Federal
income tax but finally was allowed
to settle for $100-Which she bor-
rowed to pay.
This story came to light today
in Internal Revenue Bureau rec
.ords of current compromise tax
settlements. It concerns Mrs.
Norma Gebhardt of Ludlow, KY,
who works in Cincinnati factory.
Besides her small wages she said
she gets $40 a week from her

vide full support for her two small

Iestant Children's Home at Coving-

Erroneous Claim Voted.
The Government said she owed
a tax debt of $182.84 plus $22.41
in interest from 1949 because in
that year she enormously claimed
exemption for the two boys. Reeve

Gwenn is the central figure in

works as an engraver, principally
upon invitations to Washington's
major parties. AS a man so per-

we'll might. he always saves one
of these invitations for himself.
He thus becomes a popular

he is taken to be a retired Ad-
