Fire alarm systems are not
"frills" in single-family houses
an expert declared today.
Commenting on criticism in
recent Senate hearings on Fed
eral Housing Administration ir-
regularities, he declared: II don't
think they should be classed with
barbecue pits. swimming pools
or dog kennels"
George H. Tryon, assistant
technical secretary of the Ma

persons a year are killed by

Testimony that the FILA will

Carolina, and Senator Capehart,
Republican, of Indiana.
Mr.. Tryon declared that the

Expert Replies to Criticism

But he suggested that pros7

There are an awful lot of gyp
devices on the market" Mr..
tTryon said.
There are two basic types of
home fire. alarm systems, he said.
These are the spot type detector
and the continuous strip detector
The continuous strip, he said,
is special wiring strung around
room near the ceiling, which
will react to heat and thus set of
bells or sirens.
The spot detection device COW

several would have to be used for

Furthermore, Mr.. Edmondson
said, the administration has

NEW YORK. Nov. ll.-A

the first pictures Of what may
be a missing link to explain a

The picture show tiny threads

surrounding the nucleus.
Your body. all living Things,

The nucleus is soemwhat like
an executive Office or control

plasm like q factory. Inc
nucleus controls much of the
production Of life materials and
chemical changes In the factory
part.
A mystery has been how the

Until now, there has been no
