GRASS FIRE SUBDUED ' A grass fire at Kelly's Korner and Landers Road was put out by city firemen at 6:15 p. m. yesterday. A pumper truck from the Douglas County Fire Patrol was dispatched also. Local fire men said little damage was re ported., ,1 ' a final vote on the Pact either Monday or Tuesday. They expect overwhelming approval of the 12-nalion alliance out not until after some Senators are assured their vote will not commit them to voting for the re-armament of Western turope. EUROPEAN PROGRAM Members of the Senate Ap propriations Committee appear to be agreed the Economic Coop eration Administration may nave to take a fairly, heavy cut. Mundt said the new pact plan will be offered as a resolution in connection with the arms-for-Europe program. President Tru man is expected to send the arms plan to congress next weeK. The alliance would be open. Mundt said, to any member of the United Nations which would agree "to play ball under a new set oi rules. There was little chance the world-pact plan would complicate ratification of the North Atlan tic Treaty since It Is to be offered as part of the Arms Program. Two Senators Oppose Pact Flanders told the Senate yes terday he could not vote for the treaty because he said it is not the proper weapon with which to fight Communism. Flanders argued the fight against Communism is a battle of ideas and that the United States is In danger of bankrupting herself in trying to build up mili tary defenses against Commu nism. Senator Donnell (R-Mo) also opposed the treaty on the grounds it carries too many obligations and contains no real guaran tee of peace. Donnell argued the pact may set off an arms race with Russia the like of- which the world has never seen." And he con fended the treaty does carry with it an obligation to give arms to Europe. Americans Increasing Purchases Of E Bonds (Continued From Page One) Government's New Public Housing Program Aimed To Help Low Income Families By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON, July 8. UP This is the government's new public nousing program: To start building 810,000 de cent, low-rent housing units in the next six years for low-income families living now in slums or run-aown nomes. Once a family's Income im proves beyond a certain point, it must get out oi public nousing ana una a private dwelling. This makes room for a lower- Income family. Over many years many people can be helped that way. That's the Idea behind the program. The government's main role In all this is helping with money- cities and. communities build the public housing. The government Itself won't own or run tne housing. The ci ties and communities will do that. How much will all this cost the government? Congress says no more tnan $i2,3u,uuu,uuu, spread over 40 years. It can't be spent all at one time. Since government money will be used in public housing, the government will have some con trol over It. for example: It must approve the plans be fore any government money is handed out; it will have final say on the size of rents that can be charged. Program Procedure Told The program will go like this: A city has a lot of families needing decent, low-rent homes. So it wants to build low-rent pub lic housing. ' since it has to hire private con tractors to do the building, the city may not have enough money to foot the bill. Under this program the govern ment then can help- out In two ways: With loans, that have to be paid back, and grants, that don't: , 1. Loans The government can give the cities as much as 51,- oou.uuu.uuu in loans over tne next six years. A city can get a loan up to 90 per cent of the cost of building a public housing project The goveriment loses nothing on this because the cities must repay the loan, at interest of may be 24 to 3 per cent. But they have 40 years to do the repaying. 2. Grants This Is where the government hands out money it never gets back, for a grant is an outrignt gut. Spread Over 40 Year Congress says the government can give the cities $12,320,000,000 grants to get public nousing. But: The money won't be handed out in any one year, or six years, but over 40 years and then with no more than S308.000.uu0 elven In any one year. If that much has to be given every year lor w years, it will come to $12,320,000,000. Why should the government have to give perhaps as much as $308,000,000 a year in grants, or outright gifts, to the cities for 40 years r lo help them bridge the gap between (A) the cost to them of running a public housing project and (B) the income they get from their low-rent paying tenants. This Isn't the first time the gov ernment has been involved in public housing. Congress first ap proved a public housing program in 1937. Under that one. 191.000 public housing units have been built. They've cost the government so far $68,000,000 in grants. inose grants unliKe tne 40- year ones allowed under the new program can run for 60 years. But the most the eovernment can lose on grants under the 1937 program is $1,680,000,000 spread over 60 years. rBergh' Appliance Service 1200 S. Stephens Service On All Type of ; ... Wajhers Ml SALES solid 10'A per cent under the record for the first half of 1948. For the first half of 1949, new purchases of E bonds exceeded cash-ins by $548,000,000, provid ing a "net" lo the government that topped the mark for the same part of last year by 86 per cent. i ne very success oi tne Dontis in absorbing money mat migm have been spent was criticized privately by one official outside of the Treasury. This official said he thinks this is a bad time for "anti-inflationary" bond buy ing. Although the accumulating bond holdings which hit a rec ord high of $33,127,000,000 on Jrme 30 formed a reservoir of future consumer buying power, fresh government reports showed businessmen still are cutting down Inventories as rapidly as possible.

(JP The Navy Is giving "anti-subma rine wariare nigh priority be cause Russia has a fleet of 250 to 300 of the most modern under sea craft. A secret Navy report to this effect became public today through release of testimony be fore a Senate Appropriations Committee. Admiral Louis E. Denfeld, chief of Naval operations, told Senators: "We are paying a great deal of attention in the Navy to anti submarine warfare. We figure it 1b one of our major missions and one of our most important .missions." c.,1,'' ... - Senator MeCarran ' (D-Nev), without mentioning Russia by name, asked about published re ports that "a certain nation has much advanced submarines and that It is a matter in which we are somewhat behind." Denfeld disputed this, saying Q. Why is Dutch Boy Wonsover like a little boy's face? A. You don't have to be afraid to wash It! One Coat of Q.

The Investigation, now ending Its sixth week, stems from charges on "incredible misman agement" made against the AEC by Senator Hickenlooper (R Iowa). The Appropriations Commit tee also adopted an amendment proposed by O'Mahoney which would require a full FBI check of all AEC fellowship candidates. Officials of the Commission, Including Chairman David E. Lil ienthnl, and the National Re search Council, which admini sters the program for the Com mission, nave opposed such a check. -' the United States Navy and other armed forces "are ahead of other countries in the world. However. we have not yet obtained the complete answer to this new type oi suDmanne." The testimony Indicated that Navy officers and Senators wer referring to the long-range, mod ern submarines developed by the iiermans at tne enu ot tne last War. Equipped with a special ap paratus for obtaining air while submerged and other devices, it was able to remain under water for long periods to avoid detection. n 'fmm"m ' I k "tr - F V '?'"! ft VA xk i Mi? pf;w ? v t i NEA Ttlevholo) HISS FATE NEAR Alger Hiss and his wife arrive at Federal Court In New York to hear Defense Atty.

Nathan, engaged to make the report by the CIO, has not dis closed the nature of his findings but it has been felt In industry circles that a wage increase would be recommended. Wage Boost Demanded Murray has described a wage boost as "an absolute essential." So far, however, he has not dis closed how much of a raise he wants for his steelworkers who now average $1.65 an hour, in cluding three increases ranging from 1j to is'b cents In the last three years. as matters now stand, tne u. S. Steel negotiations are at a standstill. The Corporation is the only one to date to answer the unions demands but u. t. Steel normally sets the trend for the rest of the industry. The steel contract does not ex pire until next year, but a clause permitted reopening of wage dis cussions this summer with July 16 the strike deadline if no agree ment is reached. Strike Would Spread A steel strike at this time would greatly hamper the na tion's Industrial machinery but would not have the full effect felt by the last major stoppage in 1946. Then the country was in the midst of its postwar economic re covery. Now production has managed to approach demand. A strike against "Big Steel" on July 16 probably would mean a strike against 189 steel producers, employing 500,000 workers. Other wage negotiation periods expire at staggering dates and union of ficials said it was entirely dos- sible the stoppage would spread to otner plants. R. C. McNew Dies At Cottage Grove R. C.
