F.D.Rs Papers
Subpoenaed in
Senate Inquiry
POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., July
21.--W) Dutchess County Sur
rogate Frederick S. Qulntcrror
ruled today that all the papers
and files of the Late President
Roosevelt are "a valid and effec
tive gift to the United States
government to be placed, main
tained and preserved in the
Franklin D. Roosevelt Library at
Hyde Park.
The decision came as part of
a Judicial settlement of the ac
count of proceedings of James
Roosevelt, Basil O'Connor and
Henry P. Hackett as executors
of the last will and testament of
Mr. Roosevelt.
Last Spring, when the Senate
War Investigating committee
sought permission to go through
the papers in search of inlorma--tlon
dealing with Navy purch
ases of Arabian oil, Fred W.
Shlpman, librarian, said "at such
time and if the Roosevelt papers
are turned over to the govern
ment by court order, the United
Slates archivist would place no
Insurmountable luoblem in mak
ing the papers available to a
Senate committee or any other
government body for official
use."
At that time. President Tru
man had rejected the request
for the' papers and wrote the exe
cutors asking for any papers re
levant to the inquiry.
Shlpman could not be reached
Immediately for comment on the
surrogate's decision.
Yesterday the Senate War In
vestigating Committee subpoen
aed papers of the Late President
for an Inquiry aimed at deter
mining who authorized a war
time contract to Howard Hughes
for construction of an experi
mental flying boat.
Earle R. Koons, an attorney
for the Roosevelt estate, refer
ring to the subpoena, said today
"no one knows whether the docu
ments sought are among Mr.
Roosevelt's papers. If they are
they will be supplied lo the com
mittee as soon as possible. Every
effort will be made to comply
with the subpoena."
A treasure trove is the legal
expression for coin, bullion, gold,
or silver arlicles, found hidden
in the earth and for which no
owner can be found.
DAILY DEVOTIONS
DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS
As all coupons on railroad
tickets are marked "not good
if detached," so Xruitfulness in
Christian living must be based
upon our unjon. with Christ.
For without me ye can. do
nothing." The Scripture read
ing in John, 15 chapter, embod
ies ah immortal lesson. It is a
reminder that Christ and we,
who are his disciples, are
mutually dependent. The vine
and the .brarcijes i:re equally
helpless withoet each other.
We may thwart Cod's plan,
delay or .defeat l is purpose
through our s.'lf jhness and
sin. "Ye have limited the Holy
one of Israel." The lesson sug
gests also that one stream of
life flows through God and us.
"Abide in me and I in you." As
our lives are .knitted together
in Christ, the divine husband
man grafts us into the "true
vine," and His life flows in and
through us. The fruitage of all
this is Christian service. "Here
in is My Father glorified that
yet bear much fruit." All
planting, pruning and purging
are for fruit. What concern and
care God has for our lives.
"Must I go, and empty hand
ed, Thus my dear Redeemer
meet ?
Not one soul with which to
greet Him,
Lay no trophies at His feet?"
Amen.
Slaughter Orgy
Followed Plot
To Murder Hitler
LONDON, July 20. UP) The
British Admiralty asserted today
that more than 4.980 Germans
were shot, hanged or tortured
to death In a reign of terror it
said followed the unsuccessful at
tempt to assassinate Adolph Hit
ler in 1911.
In a report it said was based
on captured German documents,
the Admiralty said the "terror
which followed (the attempt)
was one of the worst that Hitler
ever organized against his own
people."
ine report traced the begin
ning of the revolt, led by Col.
Gen. Ludwlg Beck, back to 1938.
when he resigned as chief of
staff in protest against the in
tended Invasion ot Czechoslo
vakia. "The revolt was essentially a
revolt from the top," the report
said. "It was impossible under
the regime of Himmler's gestapo
lor ordinary people to take part.
In the attempted assassination.
July 20, 1944, a bomb was placed
under Hitlers chair at a stall
meeting.
The Hritlsh report said leaders
of the attempt were shot or tor
tured to death and "terror raged
for the next six months and guil
ty and Innocent alike were tor
tured and massacred ."
Housing Program Sets
New Record During June
CHICAGO, July 21. UP) The
nation's housing program start
ing and completion of homes
reached a new 20-year high in
June, Charles J. Horan, regional
housing cxpeditor in Chicago
said.
There were 358,000 permanent
houses started in the first six
months this year, Horan said, the
highest total since the middle
twenties and surpassed the 1910
total by approximately 18,700
units. He said about 75.000 new
permanent houses were started
in June as compared with ap
proximately 64,000 in June, 194(i
and 72,500 last May.
Completions for the first half
of 10-17 totaled 312,800 units, com
pared with 128,(00 for the same
period last year. In June (i2,800
new iiernianen units were com
pleted, more than double the to
tal of .'tO.tiOO in June, 19-16. and
the highest month's t-nmnli'tion
record since the end of the war.

Big Auditing Job -Remains
From
Exit of UNRRA
By PETER EDSON "
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON, D. C United
Nations Relief and Rehabilitation
Administration has officially gone
put of business in every country
except China, but the auditors as
well as the memories linger on.
The auditors will .be around till
the end of the yeaV at least, try
ing to balance the books on the
world's greatest experiment in In
ternational co-operation to relieve
human suffering.
Whether that experiment is re
garded as success or failure, the
final audit should bring out in
much clearer focus what was
done with the money received
from the sale of UNRRA supplies
in the 17 war-torn nations.
The general impression is that
all these supplies were given
away In a gigantic soup-kitchen
operation. That's far from the
truth. One of the original condi
tions of the UNRRA set-up was
that, wherever possible, relief
and rehabilitation supplies should
be sold In the country that got
mem. ine idea was to start the
wheels of normal trade relations
and exchange of goods roiling
again.
Money received from the sale
of UNRRA supplies was not how-
ever, to De returned to the 31
countries that paid for them. In
stead it was specified that the
receipts should be spent in the
country of sale for permanent re
construction or further relief and
rehabilitation. For every dollar
put into UNRRA it was hoped
that another dollar's worth of
good might be done in the rein
vestment turnover.
How. close UNRRA came to
achieving this goal, nobody
knows. Of the $3.7 billion UNRRA
fund, $2.9 billion went for sup
plies. The other S800 million
covered administration, shipping
and distribution costs.
Where Money Went
What the $2.9 billion went for
is known. Roughly $1250 million
went for food, $-125 million for
clothing, $125 million for medi
cine, $350 million for rehabilita
tion, st80 minion lor industrial
rehabilitation and $120 million
for special forms of relief. But
what portion of each category
was sold, and what part given
away, UNRRA doesn't know. Rea
sons given are that UNRRA sup
plies are not all disposed of yet,
and that the manner of distribu
tion and form of reinvestment
was loft to each country. Their re
ports vary in completeness and
accuracy.
Czechoslovakia s reports are
probably in best shape. This coun
try has worked out a complete
two-year plan for reinvestment
of the $265 million it hones to re
ceive from sale of UNRRA sup
plies to its people.!
in Italy, money received Irom
resale of UNRRA supplies has
been put into a special Lire Fund.
It is expected to reach $165 mil
lion. This has been budgeted to go
40 per cent for housing, 50 per
cent to health and welfare serv
ices, 10 per cent to agricultural
rehabilitation.
Wildly Distributed
Poland got approximately $181
million worth of UNRRA aid.
Most of it was given away as this
country was one of the worst
ravaged by war. Only 573 million
was received trom sales and the
proceeds made available for rein
vestment.
Most of this went to re-eouin
looted hospitals and clinics. Over
$1 million was transferred to the
International Children's Fund,
World Health Organization and
other voluntary relief organiza
tions which took over when
UNRRA pulled out of Warsaw
June 30.
These are at best sketchy re.
ports from only three of the 17
countries which UNRRA tried to
aid.
The point not to be lost sight
of is that by this sale and rein.
vestment from a part of the sup
plies, UNRRA did more good than
the mere filling of an emntv bellv.
The result was that UNRRA was

Russia Not Thinking of
War, Educator Declares
AUSTIN, Tex., July 20. (P
Dr. Robert H. Montgomery, Uni
versity of Texas professor who
helped the army pick wartime
A-bomb targets, asserts that Rus
sia isn't thinking about war. '
"They are not completely
crazy," the economics professor
told the-Texas power reserve, an
organization of -rural coopera:
tives. "In 24 hours we could wipe
out 75,000,000 Russians and not
lose 100, men. They know it."
He urged that atomic energy
be put to peaceful use, which he
said could result in a truly Christ
ian world, "not tomorrow, but
very soon."
"The proper use of atomic
power would mean plenty of food,
plenty of shelter, plenty of every
thing for all men,'' he asserted.
"I m not worried about the Rus
sians," he said. "I'm worried
about us. If we're going to kill
them, let's do it now, not wait
three years. Rather than that,
let's learn what to do about this
power for the good of man. The
next war won't leave anything
here, or there."

are pleased to be able to offer kiln dried lumber for general
construction both commons and clears.
Whatever you build use kiln dried lumber throughout and
avoid shrinkage, checking, settling, fungus growth, and decay
that so often results from the use of green lumber.
