With the exception of the tract Oi Industry Pictured In Photographic Book Containing Simple Text One of the nation's most im portant Industries is pictured completely and dramatically for the first time in a photographic book, "The Oilmen," just pub lished by Rinehart & Company. The petroleum business, which has been increasingly in the news in recent months, is por trayed through 174 pictures of men and women at work, tied together by a brief, simple line of text. The pictures were taken by Thomas Hollyman, consulting photography editor of Holiday magazine, on assignment for Shell Oil Company. They were made available to Rinehart & Company to tell the industry's story in picture-book form. The resulting volume, which is on sale through book stores, is en tirely non-commercial. of fire-killed timber, ill of the O&C timber involved in the sale has been marked for cutting on an individual tree selection basis.

WILSON I Washington U.R) Play wright Lillian Hellman, who re fused to be a helpful witness to the House un-American Activi ties Committee, has long rec ord of Communist front activity. She has been cited by the com mittee in 40 instances of Com munist front affiliation or activi ty of varying degree. After its investigation of un-American propaganda activities in the United States, the committee re ported in 1944 on hundreds of persons, who, in one way or an other had associated themselves with Communist fronts. Many of these persons are not communists, although lympi thetic with Communism. Many others were ignorant dupes who innocently permitted their names to be used by Commu nists. And some of these broke away when the facts of Com munist politics became known to them. Refuses Questions Miss Hellman was among the considerable number of persons listed who were tagged as well known and active supporters of Communist fronts. . In testimony before the House committee Wednesday she re fused to answer questions re garding her relationship with the Communist party or with individuals on grounds that she might incriminate herself. She did say she was not a party mem ber at this time. Knowledge Wanted The committee additionally wanted to find out what Miss Hellman could tell about per sons she may have known to be Communists in the publishing and theatrical circles in which she has moved steadily upward for 25 years. Miss Hellman was excused aft er an exchange which began with her refusal to answer a question about a specific meet ing of the Communist party in Hollywood. Committee Counsel Frank S. Tavenner Jr. finally TREAT FOR YOU! Hearing said it was plain he could obtain no "helpful testimony from her. Miss Hellman left the stand with her secrets, if any, unspoken. Could Be Helpful There is, at least, reasonable ground for belief that Miss Hell man could have been a witness helpul and importantly effec tive in further exposing Com munist activity in the United Stales. In its 1944 report, the com mittee on page 1209 discussed one of the fronts with which Miss Hellman was associated and included her in a select list of the "large company of con firmed Communist fellow travel lers in this organization." The report added: "A bulky volume could be written which dealt only with the Communist activities and af filiations of the foregoing per sons."
