Secret FBI Data
May End McCarthy
Plans, Demos Say
Washington, Mar. 25 U.R
Senate Democrats suggested to
day that secret FBI data shown
them may wash out Senator Jo
seph R. McCarthy's main 'com
munism case" against the state
department.
The Democrats, who refused
to be quoted directly, said tne
data contained nothing to prove
McCarthy's charge that a man
connected with the state depart
ment is Russia's boss spy in the
United States.
The Wisconsin Republican in
sists that this is the makc-or-break
case on which he is pre
pared to stake his entire indict
ment of the state department se
curity setup.
Gives Big Analysis
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
gave a "complete analysis" of the
alleged spy's FBI loyalty file to
one Republican and three Dem
ocratic members of a senate judi
ciary subcommittee at a secret
meeting in the Justice depart
ment. The Democrats subsequently
told reporters that if tlmt whs
McCarthys chief case, they saw
"no cause for worry."
But McCarthy was not expect
ed to be as easily satisfied, and
at least one powerful Democrat
agreed with him. Senator Walter
F. George (D., Ga.) warned that
the administration is inviting a
"whitewash" charge unless it re
leases the full loyulty files to
senate investigators.

Two years ago, Lang felt a

End Chrysler Strike
Believed 'In Sight'
Detroit, Mar. 25 (U.R) The
end of the Chrysler strike sec
ond longest and expensive in
port automotive history was in
sight today.
With the big stumbling block
of funded pensions out of the
way, negotiators scheduled ses
sions tomorrow that may begin
to spell the end of the 60-day
walkout.
"The principle of whether pen
sions should be funded or not has
been settled." a United Auto
Workers' rpokesman said. "We're
down to dollars-and-cents bar
gaining now."
Pensions of $100 backed up
with something besides the com
pany's promise to pay touched
off the walkout January 25.
Chrysler gave ground Friday,
agreeing to put $30,000,000 aside
to assure continuous payments of
pensions to its 89.000 workers.

Movie Actress Downs
Handfull Sleep Pills
Hollywood, Mar. 25 (U.R)
Screen Actress Lynn Merrick, 27,
swallowed a handful of sleeping
pills today in a fit of anger dur
ing a quarrel with her husband.
Robert Goelet. heir to a large
Rhode Island fortune, police said.
Goelet discovered her condi

Monica Receiving hospital where
the actress' stomach was pumped
out. Then she returned to her
West Los Angeles home. Goelet
refused to reveal details of the
quarrel.
Heir to a Rhode Island estate
fortune, Goelet eloped from

Falling Through Ice
Prince Rupert. B. C, Mar. 25
(U.R) A man and two girls were
drowned when they fell through
river ice in northern British Co
lumbia, police learned here late
today.
Drowned at Yansh, in British
Columbia's Nasa valley 100 miles
northeast of here, were Paul
Wright, 50, native Indian, and
his two young nieces, Emma and
Gloria Haizimisqui.
Provincial police here said the
three drowned when they fell

the state, but this is the first such
project in southern Oregon.
The Kogap Lumber industries
is cooperating with the project,
and the survey is being made at
the firm's plant south of Med
ford Douglas fir lumber, which
differs in characteristics here
from the same species in the
north, is the only type being
studied.
The project is officially termed ;
a 'lumber grade recovery
study," and it is hoped that with
the results cruisers and log scal
ers can be able to tell with a high
degree of accuracy just how
much usable lumber, for what
purposes, is contained in any
given type of log.
Follow Logi Through
Logs are followed all the way
through the cutting process, from
the uncut log to the finished
product. Every third log is
marked and numbered, and then
graded according to the Colum
bia river grading and scaling
rules. A laboratory man will dia
gram the log for all defects, and
then members of the team fol
low the lumber through each
process.
The project will take about
two weeks to complete, at which
time the team will go to the Cape
Arago Lumber company at Em
pire, Ore., for similar studies in
that area.
Cold Waters Of Lake
Heat Minnesota Home
Minneapolis U.R) An electri
cal engineer is using the icy
waters of Lake Minnetonka to
heat his home.
Robert Fillmore, a University
of Minnesota engineering instruc
tor, decided to demonstrate some
of the theories he teaches by ex
perimenting with his home on
the lake.
He built a pump from mater
ials bought from a retail store.
The pump draws in 39-dcgrcc
cold water from the lake and
circulates it through a chemical
agent which lowers the tempera
ture to 36 degrees, like a freezing
unit.
Extracts Units
The pump extracts some 25
British thermal units of heat
from each gallon of water. The
three degrees of heat generated
as the water, temperature is
dropped is pumped in the form
of warm water through a net
work of small pipes located in
the ceiling of his home.
The operation maintains the
home's temperature between 74
and 76 degrees, and the system
gives a constant temperature
from floor to ceiling.
Fillmore says he pays a $150
electric bill for the pump in a
normal winter season. That's
about what it would cost to heat
his home with oil.
