NUREMBERG, Germany, April
24.-Three suave. middle-aged
Germans are under arrest here
for cheating at cards with the
aid of midget radios concealed
under their expensive evening
clothes.
Police said the men operated
in elite gambling houses through
out West Germany with phenom-

were caught with their antennas

A sharp~eyed, croupier at a
fashionable club here became
suspicious and called in police.
The police said the men operated
this way:
Acting as total strangers they
would enter exclusive gambling

and pose as men Of wealth and
prominence.
One would play the part of a

One of the other men would

Democrats argued in the
House debate that the critical
area provision would afford little
protection. The bill would pro-
vide a much tighter definition
of q critical area. Effective
August l. a city could qualify
only if its housing shortage was
caused by a Government INSTALL
alton. The present definition in
cludes a housing shortage caused
by a private defense plant. An
other provision states that the
critical area controls could not
apply to any units built after
February l. 1947.
Sponsors of the measure con-
cede the two sections would
eliminate half of the present
critical area ceilings after three

District Will Sell
Old Firehouse
Al Public Auction

The see-Saw question of
whether an old flrehouse at 413
Eighth street NV. should be
sold by the District once again
yesterday was resolved by q de-
cision to get rid Of it at public
auction.
This is the second time the
District Commissioners have
reached the same decision. They
had to suspend 1t earlier this
month because of the interces-
sion of Chairman Case Of the
Senate District Committee. Sen
ator Case. who called attention
to a stand by the Federation of
Citizens Associations, asked that
parties opposing the sale should
be given more opportunity to
express their views.
AS a result of this request. the
Commissioners held a public
hearing at which some business
men in the heavily commercial
lied area said that the area
would be inadequately protected
against fires should the station
be closed.
In a report to the city heads,
however, Acting Fire Chief Lit
teral pointed out that for many
years the building has housed
no fire equipment. but a rescue
squad. Nearest station equipped
for firef1ghting has been and
remains an engine company in
the 700 block Of Twelfth street
NV. This station has also been
housing RESCUE Squad No. /,
which moved out of the old
Eighth street house.
The commissioners have not
yet set a new date for sale OF
the latter structure, which is
about so years old. and, due to
its location. could obviously draw

Taft Sees Chance
For Senate Action on
Rents by April 80
BY the Asseciated Press

Senate Republican Leader
Taft said today he would see
about getting a bill to extend
Federal rent control through the
Senate without interrupting the
prolonged debate over sub
merged oil lands.
The rent issue is squarely up
to the Senate now. The House
voted, 1877 to Sc, yesterday for a
bill to continue the ceilings for
three months in cities which
now have them and for a year in
critical defense areas. Both
types are due to expire April 80,
unless extended.
Senator Taft said 1--WE might be
able" to get the House measure
through the Senate by unani-
nous consent before next weeks
deadline. He said he was ex-
ploring that possibility.
Such q plan appeared to be
the only way to save the limited
extension proposed for Federal
rent controls.
TidelandS Vote Move Fails.
So far Senator Taft has been
unavailing in all his efforts to
get a debate limitation in the
submerged lands debate he
labels a filibuster. Yesterday
foes Of the State ownership bill
blocked a move to set a final
vote for next Wednesday,.
On his part, the Ohioan has
been just as adamant against
setting the submerged lands bill
aside temporarily for any other
measure.
However, by unanimous agree
ment, it would be possible to
break into the debate long
enough to pass the House rent
controls bill with no discussion.
There was a possibility such
consent could not be obtained
in the exchange of recrimina-
tionS over the submerged lands.

would be extended for three
