who did not marry the wood
cutter until 1912. said she had
been interested In the flight
before and after it happened and
clipped newspaper stories about
the Wrights and their plane.
Indeed, so interested is She in
the story, so years later, that she
has asked a friend in Washing
ton to send her accounts in the
Washington papers of the type
of celebration that city will have
on the anniversary.
Mr.. Linke left Dayton a few

Urged to Join Party.

had solicited them to join the
Communist Party. Mr.. Saunders
said that he was issued a party
: card by Mr.. Hyman, "held on to
1t for a while and finally de-
stroyed it,"
Mr.. Ackerman and Mr.. Morris
testified that Mr.. Hyman had
told them he was connected
with the Communist Party"
Mr. Hyman was in the hearing
. room at the time and was
pointed out by the four wit
neSSeS.
Called as a witness himself,
Mr.. Lyman refused on grounds
of possible self incrimination to
say whether he even knew the
four men who labeled him as a
. Communist.
He challenged the McCarthy's
committee authority to question
him about any crime, contending
that this was a matter for a
grand jury. He added that no
. charges are pending against
him "since I have not committed
any crime, including espionage. F"
Asked if he would answer ques-
tions before the grand jury or
to the Federal Bureau of Investi-
CATION, Mr.. Hyman replied:
MY conduct at that time will
be determined"
Senator Mccarthy said the
subcommittee has records of sew
eral hundred calls Mr.. Hyman
has made to Fort Monmouth
and other installations handling
secret Government work. He
asked the witness If any Of those
calls had anything to do with
espionage.
While Mr.. Hyman conferred
with his lawyer, Senator Nc
Carthy said that the witness was
exhibit No. as to why Attor-
ney General Brownell'S proposal
. to legalize wire tapping should
be adopted"
HurlS Fascist Label.
Mr.. Lyman heatedly retorted
to Senator Mccarthy that you
are exhibit number one of fas-
cism coming to the United
: States"
Mr.. Hyman protested that he
had already testified that he
never engaged in espionage. He
refused, however, to say whether
: he has ever engaged in a con-
. spiracy to commit espionage.
He also refused to answer
when asked how many persons
working at Federal Telecommu-
nicationS he had recruited into
the Communist Party.
/: Senator Mccarthy said the
Lyman matter would be referred
to the Justice Department for
possible prosecution under the
Smith Act making it illegal for
a person to conSpire to teach and
advocate the overthrow of this
: Government by force and vio-
lence.
; The Senator also said there
was "a clear-cut case of espion-
age" against Hyman, but he did
: not know whether the Justice
Department could establish this
beyond a reasonable doubt.
Senator Mccarthy said he
would also ask the Senate to cite
Mr.. Hyman for contempt, claim
ing the witness in several in
stances had waived his rights
under the fifth amendment.
Meanwhile, the Eisenhower ad-
ministration was reported to be
ready to challenge Senator Nc
Cartly anew in the Wisconsin
Republicans efforts to question
members of a Pentagon screen
ing board as part of his inves-
tigation.
The administration is under
stood to have decided to refuse
to permit members of the board
to testify before Senator Nc
Carthy on security cases arising
at Fort Monmouth and else
where.
There also were reports, which
could not be confirmed. that
board members might be advised
: to ignore any subpoenas issued
by Senator McCarthy's Investi-
eating Subcommittee.

without considering the subject a
pain in the neck"
Miss DUNCAN herself says that
her biggest job was to sell the
place Of grammar to the children,
to make them see that it would
help them to speak and write cor
rectly. Her greatest concern was
to make them think for them
selves, to stand on their own feet,
and not to be carbon copies"
Friends and Adviser
What was just as important to
the students vas the fact that
Miss DUNCAN was a friend and
conf1dante. In addition to her
/ teaching duties. she filled the role
as vocational director, lob that
brought her many adolescent
problems 20 solve
The BOYS and girls have not for
gotten what good friend she was
to them, Many still bring their
worries to her if not in person,
at least by mail or phone. and
needless to say she's still interest
ed in every last one.
Nowadays Miss DUNCAN is
catching up on a few more leisure
ly aspects of life. Her sweet little
house On Irving street is spic and
span from caring hands. An abb
sorbing interest of hers is in con-
tlnulng to convert the garden
from Wilderness into thing of
beauty Then. too, she likes cook
ing. and has grand time seeing
how a new recipe is going to turn
out. The Farmville Baptist Church
finds in her an ardent supporter.
Finally. there are old friends, and
new ones, to enjoy.
Though Miss DUNCAN herself
IS overwhelmed and humbly APP
preciative of the honors that have
come to her she has every right
to feel justly proud of her life's
work that is a job well done.

Senators Back curbs
On Seizure Powers
By the Associated Pres,

The Senate Judiciary Commit
tee has approved a proposed
constitutional amendment which
would make it specific that a
President could seize private
property only by act of Congress.
The resolution is an outgrowth
Of former President Truman's
seizure of the steel industry to
stop a strike in 1852.
The proposed amendment ap-
proved yesterday, would read:
"The executive power Of the
United States shall not be con-
Strued to extend at any time to
any taking Of private property
other than by act Of Congress. .
