# Easements ever are to be
made really livable- le-suitable for
comfortable bedrooms, for in
stance-they viii have to be sue
cessfully waterproofed and damp
proofed.
Some architects think that
even in parts Of the South.
where cellars are still COM
paratively rare, livable base
ments are destined to become
the biggest new trend in house
architecture. These men argue
that houses will get bigger down.
ward, instead Of upward, because
of economy.
But all seepage problems will
have to be conquered and the
condensation of warm summer
air striking cooler basement
walls and floors will have to be
prevented to give us maximum
use out Of our Easements.
These problems have been
invented to take the moisture
out of basement air. Floor
coverings and wall coverings
have been developed to line base
ments against direct contact
with moist summer air. Many
so-called waterproofing paints
have been offered on claims that
they are tight enough to keep
water from soaking through
masonry walls.
The biggest problem has been
to seal q basement on the inside
strongly enough to stop the pres
sure of water from the outside.
For a long time, this was thought
to be virtually impossible. Now
many waterproofers say. 1t can
be done.
A modern chemical discovery.
making use of silicones to PEN
citrate poses in masonry and
seal it against the passage of
moisture, has been one Of the
most interesting developments in

The manufacturers say that Q
silicone coating makes it prac-
ticable to wallpaper a cellar wall.
The more porous the material,
however. the more paint is
needed, because porous materials,
such as concrete or cinder blocks.
allow the silicones to penetrate
deeper in their water chasing
and waterproofing processes.

Descendant OF Early Settler Called Red

WAYLAND. Mass. IN - Miss
Anne Hale IT., l6, who claims she
ID q descendant Of Pilgrim John
Alden, has been fired as q public
school teacher for having held
membership in the Communist
party.
The School Committee voted FL
to fife her last night. The dissent
ing vote was cast by Chairman
william A. Waldron, who immedi-
ately announced his resignation as
chairman until after the town cleo
tons next March.
The second-grade teacher, under
suspension since last spring, was
charged with being unfit to teach,
conduct unbecoming a schoolteach-
er and membership in the Com
munist party.
Her attorney, Oliver s. Allen,
said he has not decided yet what
future action he will take in Miss
Hsle's behalf.
Waldron said he would have vot-
ed for Miss Hale's dismissal If her
refusal to answer questions were
one Of the charges, but he said
the charges against her were not
substantated during a series of
publie hearings last month.
His committee colleagues -
Cornelius J. Mcguire and Harvey
c. Newton - noting that the Com
Munist doctrine favors overthrow
Of tie United States government,
said:

'EdibleOils
Are Needed
In Red China
By FRED HAMPTON

HONG KONG N-oil for the
mouths Of China Is in such short
supply that Peiping has at last ad.
mitted 1t and decided to do some.
thing about it.
Because China's millions eat al.
most no dairy products and not
much meat, the oil In which they
cook their food is their chief source
Of fat. Last year peanut and veae.
table oils began to be scarce. For
many months, despite rationing,
housewives have had to line up
to get oil. People still complain
about scarcity and about aduitera.
tion-mostly the mixing Of wood
oil with vegetable or peanut oil.
The Reds admit that cooking oil
Is scarce in an editorial In the
Tientsin Ia Kung Pao entitled:
Strive for q Balanced Supply and
Demand Of Edible Oils" They
claim that under state manare-
nent edible oil production went
up Il per cent from 1850 10 1852.
but last year no gain was made.
Peipins has created q complete
state monopoly in edible oil, elimi.
mating China's age-old free market
in oils and fats. Private vholesal.
ers, retailers, oil pressers may be.
come agencies Of the state but can.
not operate independently. Control
OF supply has also been ordered,
but how this 10 to be exercised is
vague.
Peiping has called for increased
production. The increase is to be
achieved without devoting any
more presently cultivated acreage
to cooking oil plants-no grain,
cotton or rice acreages are to be
diverted. Unused ground a.ould be
planted, the governr'~ saws.
Also higher yields will be attempt.
ed, along with better processing
to give more oil per pounds Of nuts
or vegetable.
Peipins admits there has been
a nationwide complaint that the
shortage IL due to too much q.
uortation. This is not true, says
the Tientsin 70 Kung Pao, but in
the next lire It snneunees that
''this year oil exports win be de.

Democrats Plan Battles To
Increase Unemployment Aids
By CHARLES r. BARRETT

CsE1ANe.
WASHINGTON u = Democrats
planned floor fights today in both
the House and Senate to try to
increase unemployment insurance
benefits, but their prospects APP
peared dim.
The House scheduled action on
q bill by Rep. Daniel A. Reed (R-
N.Y. to extend unemployment COM
pensation coverage to about four
million additional workers In small
er businesses. The Senate called
up bill to create reserve fund
from which states could borrow to
tide them over temporary emer-
gencies caused by heavy drains on
unemployment insurance funds.
Democrats led by Sen. Kennedy
(R.Mass) and Rep. Forand ORD
prepared amendments to both OF
these bills to try to write In an
Increase in benefits and longer
payment periods for the jobless.
Neither bill as it stands now would
change benefits.
Forand said in an interview that
President Eisenhower has called
for action along the lines of his
proposed amendments, but that FL
senhower has tried to pass the
buck to the states" to improve the
program, a federal-state undertak-
ing. Eisenhower has urged that
state legislatures act to raise job
less benefits.
Forand said there is no indica-
ton that the states viii do this.
The d e m ocratic amend
ment would require each state to
pay benefits for 26 weeks. Present
state laws vary from 10 to 261a
weeks.
It also would provide that maxi.
mum benefits would be not less
than two thirds Of each states av-
erage weekly wage, with 4 mini
mum for each individual of 50 per
cent Of his own wages. This would
guarantee maximums Of $50 to $50
in the various states. At present,
the maximums run from $40 to $33
with national average payment
Of about $24.5O.
Republican leaders in both
House and Senate denounced this
program as unsound and said they
were confident it would be beaten.
Some Democrats agreed.
The bill pending In the House
would extend the system, now COW
ering So million workers, to firms
employing four or more workers
for 20 weeks during any one year.
The present system covers only
firms with eight or more employees
for 20 weeks.
The bill also would extend GOV.
erage to federal government en-
ployes.
The measure up for action in the
Senate, passed by the House last
year. seeks to assure that all of
the federal tax collections under
the unemployment compensation
program in excess Of the amounts
needed for administration would
60 back In the form Of loans or
grants.
The federal levy Is three tenths
Of per cent. In the 10 years the
program has been in operation, this
has yielded about one billion dol
lars more than the administrative
costs. The excess has gone into
the Treasury's general receipts.
