Controls Can Be Killed
Without Price Rises.
House Group Reports
BY The Assoeiaied Press

Price. wage and materials con-
trolls should be abandoned and
prices are unlikely to rise If this
is done. the House Small Business
Committee told the new Congress.
The committees recommends
tions were contained in its two
year report yesterday winding up
its business for the 82d Congress.
A decision of control policies is
one of the pressing problems fac
ing the Eisenhower administra-
tion and the new Republican-con-
trolled Congress.
The committee Of six Democrats
and five Republicans, one of them
Representative Halleck of Indiana,
incoming Republican floor leader,
was unanimous in saying controls
could be dropped without price
rises. It said decontrol would
help provide smooth transition
back to free competition"
Caliber of Personnel Hit.
The committee asserted there
had been "ineptitude" and "de-
terioration in the caliber of per-
sonnel" in the present emergency
control agencies. Falling prices,
the committee continued, showed
that decontrol could be accom-
plished if tax, spending and credit
policies were used to fight infla-
tion. 1t recommended some pro-
vision to permit presidential i'm
position of limited price freeze
in any future emergency.
The committee set no decontrol
dates except to say steel alloca-
.tlonS should be terminated by the
end OF March and aluminium and
copper decontrolled as soon as
possible. Wage, price and rent
controls expire under present law
April 80, priority and ALLEGATION
rules for scarce materials June 80.
The committee said the percent
age Of defense contracts awarded
to small firms had dropped stead
lily since the Korean war started
and the Defense Department had
not been effective in reversing the
trend. 1t suggested a central civil
ian agency to do the departments
purchasing.
Review by Congress Urged.
The Federal Trade Commission
was criticized for weakness" in
protecting small business from
anti-competition practices. The
committee, suggested that. Con-
gress review the situation.
The committee also proposed
that private means be used for
financing small business, with di-
rect Government loans only as a |
last resort and that taxes on busi-
ness income should be reduced.
If excess profit taxes are contin- /.
ued at all, the group said, they
should be amended to allow small
firms to retain earnings "vitally
needed for normal business opera
tions."

MeHa|e TO Explain
Claim for So3,5OO
BY the Assoeiesed Press

Frank McHale, former Indiana
Democratic national committee
man, will have a chance January
26 to explain what he did to earn
a $93.500 legal fee he claims from
the Government.
Mr.. McHale contends the Gov
eminent should pay him a 10 per
cent fee on a $685. 900 settlement
he got for Empire Ordnance Co.,
which had a World War II con-
tract to produce airplane struts.
The Army impounded this
money to apply on judgments
against four Empire affliates for
excess profits made on other con-
tracts. Empire went to the United
States Court of Claims to free this
fund. Mr.. McHaleS claim is part
of the case.
Last spring the claims court re-
fused a Government request that
Mr.. McHale's claim be tossed out
without further hearing. Gov
ernment lawyers then argued the
claim should be against Empire
and not the Government. Mr..
McHale, stockholder and direc-
tor of Empire, represented the
company before the Contracts
Settlement Board.
A hearing on the Empire case
resumes in New York City January
Is before Commissioner Murray
Bernhardt with little prospect for
q claims court decision before
late 1858.
Mr.. Bernhardt told a reporter
Mr.. McHale has been invited to
be the first witness and to explain
his part in winning the settlement
for Empire.

From a story In the Los Angeles
Times: one Of the U. N.
lawyers demonstrated himself. !"
Demonstration, "the act of throw
ing a person or an object out a
window" was an old Middle-Age
custom practiced on political lead
ers who had lost favor with their
public. A notable example was
the demonstration of Prague in
1918, when some of the kings
ministers were tossed out the pal
ace window, the action precipitat-
ing the 80 years war.
While no dictionary, to my
knowledge, lists the verb "defenes-
trate." see no reason why it can
not be used, since so many Of our
verbs have been formed from
noun roots-rotation, rotate; ne
gotiation, negotiate; speculation,
speculate, and so on. The word de-
fenestration derives from the Latin
de, FROM" and fenestra, window. !"
Say: dee-FEN N-ess-TRAY' shun;
dee e-fen-E -ESS-trate.

Ladies or the human race
greatly covet the handsome warm
coat worn by the martens. This
animal prefers the thick forests of
frs, pines and spruce where it
can travel on great limbs too high
up for other animals to follow.
In one form or another the
species ranges from ocean to
ocean. You never see them in
swamps, open prairies, or open
marshes. Even the borderland Of
their beloved forest is Stunned.
It is the first animal to retreat
before civilization. The marten
has not adapted itself to change
as so many of its neighbors have.
Only the expert trapper can find
the marten. His home range is
little more than a mile from head
quarters. However, when food is
scarce it goes a bit wider.
At one time there were large
numbers. Two hundred was the
average catch by an Indian hunt
er. The fur has a lovely, rich,
dark-brown shading and is, black
at the tail, with an irregular
patch of buff on chest or throat.
The fur makes very handsome
coats, neckpieces or capes.

26O Polio Victims
GET S1O1,344 Here

During 1852, 260 cases of polio
were assisted by the District
chapter of the National Founda-
ton for Infantile Paralysis at a
cost of $101,3 ,344.
The chapter, in it's annual re-
port, also said that 1874 new cases
of polio were reported. as COM,
pared to 66 in 1851. A break
down of the 1874 victims shows
that 81 were male, SO female; 80
were white; A were colored.
Polio hit hardest in the age
group of Ito 10 years old. with
86 cases. Other age groups
showed 18 cases reported for per-
sons II to 20 years old, 10 cases
in the 21-to-30 group. nine in
the 31-to-4O group and two were
Al years old and over.
For the II months of 1852
through November, four deaths
resulted from polio. No deaths
were reported in 1851. but in
1850 five persons died from polio.
The report also said the 81
March of Dimes campaign netted
S73,552. while last years con-
tributions totaled $127.570.
Commissioner F. Joseph Dono-
hue said the report revealing the
yearly increase in polio cases in
the District shows "a crying
need for greater funds this year
in this 1853 March Of Dimes. The
March of Dimes must outpace
the march of polio"

Natures Children

Martens eat millions Of mice.
To these it add partridge, shrews,
chipmunks, rabbits, birds and
their eggs, and at times reptiles,
nuts, berries, honey and carrion.
The marten shuns water and
rainy days, preferring to remain
in their dens rather than get wet.
Hunger alone urges them out.
Man and fire are deadly enemies.
A forest fire kills many martens
who cannot survive the smoke
much less the heat. They do not
appear to become aware of the
menace until it is upon them.
The males fight to the finish
for mate. No one has ever seen
martens combining efforts in any
direction of work or play. The
den is a hollow tree, the entrance
considerable distance from the
ground. There are usually 3 or
born in late April. The young,
about the size of a newborn kit
ten, are helpless and blind. They
remain with their mother all sum-
mer, so it is thought there is one
brood a year. BY autumn they
are fully grown and seek a mate.
In captivity, pairs have lived to-
gether Tor Is years or more.

cophagus (sahr KAHF-uh-guss),
in ancient Greece, was an elabo-

designates a metal box that pre-

The bidding:

In today's deal, Mr.. Dale elected
to open his hand with one dia-
mond. Mrs. Keen doubled for a
takeout and Mr.. Masters, with
very bad hand except for his dia-
mond help, tried to shut his op-
ponents out of a possible major
suit spot with jump to three
diamonds.
He was not successful in this,
and so he ended up with score
of only 300 points on the hand.
Yes, Mr.. Champion refused to be
bluffed. He came in with three
heart bid which Mr.. Dale promptly
doubled.
The opening lead was the ten
of diamonds and dummys jack
was. finessed, losing to the king.
Mr.. Masters returned his long
spade. The ace won and he ruffed
the spade return. He now led to
Mr.. Dale's ace of clubs and ruffed
another spade lead.
He got out with a diamond
which dummy's ace won. Mr..
Champion now played very well.
He cashed the king of spades and
the king of clubs, stripping Mr..
Dale's hand of those suits. Next
came the jack of hearts, which
was ducked around, and Mr.. Dale
won with the queen.
Anything Mr.. Dale returned at
this point would be favorable to
Mr.. Champion. Actually. he led
a diamond, and Mr.. Champion
ruffed on the board while discard
ing the losing club from his hand.
However, he still had to lose an
other trump trick to the king.
Beautiful strip and end play
for down three" needed Mr.. Dale.
Mr.. Champion could have saved
q trick by going up with the ace
of diamonds at trick one and
pounding out the ace and another
trump. But of course he is not to
be bluffed. After all, Mr.. Dale
might have had the king Of dia-
monds.
