On one point, however there was agreement At top, Soviet Delegate Arkadav A. Sobolev (left) withholds his approval as Sir Pierson Dixon of Britain (center) and Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., chief U. S. delegate (right), vote "yes" to a New Zealand proposal to consider the Communist-Nationalist fighting.- Bottom, all three raise their hands in approval of a minor point Faster Security Clearances Planned For Defense Workers Washington U.R) The De fense Department announced plans today to give defense plant workers faster security clear ances and to see that there are fewer unnecessary security risk suspensions. Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson set up a special Pentagon ' office to handle clearance of in dustrial workers with jobs re quiring knowledge of secret in- formation. He also made public r new 'regulations, effective April .4, to correct "deficiencies" in the industrial . security ' system . which covers more than 2,000, 000 defense workers. This development came on 'the heels of reports that the Jus tice Department has decided that government employees accused of being security risks should be allowed to face their accusers. The Defense Department an ; nouncement did-not state specif i ucally ' whether the same uolicv would apply to defense plant em ployees. Wilber M. Brucker, Defense Department general counsel, told reporters that "more than a desirable number" of defense plant workers have been sus pended for security : investiga tions under current procedures. He said there have been about 4000 suspensions in the past 18 months. About one-third resulted in hearings on security charges, Brucker said. He did not reveal how many were restored to their jobs or what disposition was made of the other two-thirds. Besides unnecessary suspen sions, resulting from inade quately or perhaps unfairly pre pared charges, Brucker said, there have been some cases that "lingered on for more than a year" before settlement. Faster Clearances r "The revised programs is de signed to accelerate clearances of personnel in industry whose jobs require access to classified information," the formal an nouncement said. "It is antici pated that centralized screening will decrease the number of em ployees actually suspended and thus reduce the number re quired to go to hearing." - Regional hearing boards, where employees suspended or denied clearance can defend themselves, will continue ,,. to function at , New York, Chicago and San Francisco.

When the people of a nation continue to increase in average height that is a good sign. Means that nation is on the upgrade. When the average height de creases, the nation is slipping. For example, during the decline of the Roman Empire the aver age height of its citizens great ly decreased. Speaking of tall people, there is a higher per centage - of tall young women in this country than ever before in its history. The manager of a shop, specializing in apparel for tall women says she has many customers of six feet and over. One of her customers is a young woman whose height is six feet seven inches! . Hones & Women A bachelor of Manhattan maintains bachelorettes should not wear that article of attire referred to as "falsies." He says that so doing is a form of de ceit that is unfair to prospective husbands. It is perfectly proper, says he, for a married woman to feature such attire as sne "deceives only the public." If you have a sister who is a bache- lorette and a synthetic "oomph" girl, call this to her attention. Passing By Howard Hughes, Millionaire Texan.
