Educations current budget, the
plans for the completion of the
new high school could not go on

DOrmer Windows
Make Attic UsabIe

Extra living space for a grow
ing family can be obtained by
adding a pair of dormer windows
to an expansion attic. Dormers
increase the headroom and usable
floor space in the attic, and they
provide the light and cross
ventilation needed to make the
space pleasantly livable.
Ponderosa pine windows are
recommended because they can
be painted or stained to fit the
present color scheme of the house.
For ease of installation, wood
windows are made as units, with
sash and frame combined and
factory-weatherstripped.

Soviet Russia In note warned
the American Government to-

for reconnaissance flights near
Soviet territory would increase
the danger Of loss of American

The warning was contained in
a new note on the shooting down

mapping bomber near the north
east tip of Japan on November 7.
The note was handed the Amer
lean Ambassador Saturday and
was broadcast by Moscow radio
early today.
It stuck to the Soviet conten-
ton that the American recon-
naissance bomber opened fire on
Soviet MIG fighters over the
Soviet-occupied island of Tan
filiev in the Kuriles before it was
shot down by the Reds.
Despite this renewal of the
Soviet contentious, however, the
new Soviet note was unusually

involved in such incidents.

Mcclellan Maps Wider, Quieter Path

He introduced reSoiutlOn
that would establish such a COM
mittee in the last Congress and
indicated he may reintroduce
such legislation early next year.
There is considerable support
for the idea Of placing the uIl-
covering Of subyersives in the
hands Of one committee.
Right after the recent election,
Representative Walter, Demo-
crat, of Pennsylvania, who Is IN
line for chairman Of the House
Un-American Activities Commit
tee, suggested the abolition Of
the committee and the transfer
of its functions to the House
Judiciary Committee. Mr. Wal
ter afterwards changed his mind
on that point.
In the final analysis, whether
there is established single Com
munist-hunting committee will
be up to the Democratic policy
makers of the Senate and the
House who are expected to get
together within the next two
weeks to plan the work of the
new Congress.
Witnesses Names Undisclosed.
When he ended the investi-
CATION of Communists in defense
plants, Senator Potter, Republi-
can, of Michigan, who was pre-
siding in the absence of Senator
Mccarthy. said the subcommit-
tee staff had other witnesses it
could call. He intimated 1t was
up to the Democrats to decide
If the defense plants hearing
would be resumed.
Senator Mcclellan said he
could not say at this time
whether the defense plants in
vestigation would be carried on
because Senator Mccarthy had
never furnished the Democrats
with the names Of any witnesses
it had lined up.
Senator Mccarthy, in COM
planning that the various investi-
cations Of himself. were delaying
the work of the subcommittee,
likened the threat of Commu-
nists in defense plants to a razor
poised over the jugular vein of
the Nation"
Yet the investigation was
dropped after only two days of
open hearings. Senator McCar-
thy claimed that he was unable
to carry on because his injured
elbow was still bothering him.
