Of Congress charges stemming
from his refusal to tell the
House Un-American Activities
e Committee whether he was a

passports.
Mr.. Pepper had made a num-
ber Of trips to Europe and Iron

vitation was sent by former Su-
preme Court Justice Robert
Jackson, then prosecuting the
war crimes. The American Bar
Association also was invited to
send representatives.
In declining to answer the
questions before the House
committee, Mr.. Pepper dis
claimed reliance on the Fifth

Better Homes
Luring Buyers

Americans are moving into
larger homes of better quality
with more and more gadgets
and equipment.
This is the result OF the ma
tional price inflationary spiral,
the American Finance ASsocia-
tion was told yesterday at a
closing session by DR.. w.
George Pinnell of Indiana
University.
BY 1870, he said, the average
cost per house will be $4,000.
In 1858 it was $4,000, COM
pared with $9,735 a decade
earlier.
While price initiation has
been a major element in rising
construction cost" he said, "the
trend towards larger homes of
better quality with more and
more equipment has also added
to the cost of each unit"
DR.. Pinnell said that housing
legislation and policies created
in the 1950s by the Government
would soon have to be changed.
He said that these changes
would be major economic fac
tor in influencing future hous-
ing construction.

Clues to Gains

economists were told yesterday.
Speaking before the Ameri-
can Economic Association at
the Sheraton-Park Hotel, DR..
Henry H. Willard of the City
College of New York said that
many Americans resent" such
comparisons.
But if you were to ask me
for a single explanation of why
it is that Russia has come so
far so fast-and why I fear
they may continue to do so in
the future-I would offer the
fact that the percentage of
non-agricultural employment in
the Soviet Union devoted to
education is tWo-and-a-half
times as high and the percent
age devoted to trade half as
high as in the United States.
He said that the present sit
uation did not call for a pro-
portionate expansion in all
types of education.
Despite our fondness for
educating women do not think
any expansion of home eco
nomics is as important as an
expansion of economics" he
added. 1T seems to me that
we are going to have to decide
on the areas where we want
