In the letter, the scientist took up each of the allegations raised in Nichols' letter Including the statement Wat be had argued against development of the hydro gen bomb in 1949. Opoenheimer said he as well at the entire general advisory com mittee on atomic matters, made up of top-level scientists, argued against the rapid buiid-uo of H- weapons, which the scientist re ferred to as a "crash program." He said the committee submitted a report to the AEC stating that "such a program might weaken rather than strengthen the position of the United States." But, Oppenheimer said, he and the other members of the com mittee shifted signals after Presi dent Truman announced in Jan uary, 1950, that the United States would proceed with the H-bomb program. "I never urged anyone not to ect " Oppenheimer said. work on the hydrogen bomb proj- acn. Aicianny m.-wis.j saia in a television speech last week that development of the H-bomb was delayed for 18 months and asked whether subversives, might have been behind the delay.

Hollyday Out As Big FHA Scandal Is Probed (Continued from Page One) Eair program because "I believe e has been aware of it and did nop act." Hollyday. appointed by President Eisenhower, had been in tne onice a year. . The new acting commissioner has been treasurer of the William P. Proctor Co., lumber dealers in North Chemlsford, since 1937. He is a native of Willsboro, N.Y. The announcement of Mason's appointment coincided witn an in dication from Chairman Capehart (R-Ind) that his Senate Banking Committee may join in the already wide-spreading investigation ser ies. The housing and home finance agency headed by Cole, which is the over-all agency of which FHA is a part, already had an inquiry going. And Cole at a news confer ence said the FBI was being called in to study any "Ulegat or uneth ical action" in the apartment fi nancing phase of the matter. He said inflated appraisals already had cost the government more than 75 million dollars.vVS Capohart said the banking com mittee may move in "on the theory that maybe the FHA should not investigate themselves." Capehart told reporters also that the committee may hold up the pending housing bill until it gets more information about what he called the "scandals." The banking committee had planned to start next Tuesday on writing its version of the House passed bill but in view of the de velopments in (HA the chairman said it may want to "tighten up" some proposed language. The whole committee already has taken a critical view of the possibility of too-high appraisals, Capehart said, and amendments have been prepared to "stop this sort ot thing.".
