Floor Heating Said
More Economical
Champaign, Hi. (U.Ri Re
search at the University of Illi
nois indicates that warm air
heating from floor registers near
outside walls is more economical
than from high wall registers.
Heat from the perimeter of the
room is better distributed at all
levels and less concentrated at
, the ceiling, the university said.
"This increases comfort and re
duces heat loss through the ceil
ing." it said.
Heating the basement im
proves comfort with high wall
registers because of the panel
heating effect of the floor, but
the research showed that this
adds 10 per cent to fuel consump
tion. With perimeter heating, warm
ing the basement adds 12 per
cent to the fuel bill.
Research was carried out in a
typical small home built on the
Illinois campus for heating
study. The project was sponsor
ed by the National Warm Air
Heating and Air Conditioning
Association, and was conducted
by D. R. Bahnfleth, H. T. Gilkey
and C. F. Chen.
DOGCATCHER FEARS DOGS
St. Joseph, Mich. (U.R) A
Berrien County dogcatcher was
fired Tuesday by the county
board of supervisors who
charged he was "afraid of dogs."
The supervisors said they re
ceived numerous complaints that
John L. Monger, the dogcatcher,
wouldn't nab stray dogs because
he was afraid of them.
Court Justice
Favors Stevenson
Washington (U.R) Supreme
Court Justice Sherman Minton
declined further comment today
on his expression of preference
for Democratic candidate Adlai
E. Stevenson in the coming pres
idential campaign.
Minton 's aides told reporters
he 'would have "nothing further
to say, ' on the subject.
' Minton told reporters in New
York Tuesday that "I have great
confidence in Stevenson. I think
he's a very able man."
Of President Eisenhower, the
justice said: "I'm afraid he's ter
ribly handicapped physicall:
The justice, a Democrat and
former Indiana senator, made
the comment after he and Mrs.
Minton arrived on the Cunard
liner Franconia from a two
month visit to Europe.
No Exact Precedent
Preliminary check here show
ed no exact precedent for Min
ton 's statement.
Vice President Richard M.
Nixon was accused of bringing
the court into politics when he
said in a speech Feb. 14: "Speak
ing for a unanimous Supreme
Court, a great Republican Chief
Justice Earl Warren, has ordered
an end to racial segregation in
the nation's public schools."
Democratic National Chair
man Paul M. Butler said Nixon
had been guilty of dragging "the
Supreme Court into the arena
of partisan politics in a cam
paign year."

Nixon, Herter Vote
Records in Congress
Found To Be Similar
Washington (CQ) What
ever the difference between Vice
Presidnt Richard M. Nixon and
Massachusetts Gov. Christian. A.
Herter, their voting records as
members of Congress are sim
ilar. Nixon and Herter served in
Congress together between Jan.
3. 1947, and July 7. 1952. Con
gressional Quarterly compared
their voting records on roll calls
picked as the most significant,
from 1947 through 1950, when
they served in the House to
gether. Nixon and Herter opposed
each other's stand on only four
of the 30 roll calls they declared
themselves on. They also dis
played little difference in the de
gree they supported the major
ity of their party on roll-call
votes (party unity) or in how
often they voted with their party
majority when it went along
with the Democrats bi-partisan
support)'. There was considerable
difference, howeve in the fre
quency with which they declared
themselves on roll calls through
voting or pairing.
Overall Records
Comparing their overall vot
ing records percentagewise in
the 80th, 81st and 82nd 'Con
gresses, Nixon had party unity
scores of 91, 74 and 70 per cent
to Herter 91, 80 and 68 per
cent; on bipartisan support, Nix
on scored 96. 95 and 87 per cent
to Herter's 96, 95 and 93 per
cent; and on the record, Nixon
rated scores of 88, 79 and 91 per
cent to Herter's 87, 92 and 67
per cent.
Until Harold E. Stassen began
a campaign to get Herter the
Republican Vice Presidential
nomination, it had been assumed
Nixon would be the sole candi
date. Stassen said an Eisenhower
Herter ticket would draw 6 per
cent more votes than an Eisenhower-Nixon
ticket.
Nixon and Herter's opposing
stands, all in 1950, came on the
Korea Aid, Act, a bill to restore
full postal delivery service, the
Fair Employment Practices Act
and the Revenue Act
The Korea Aid Act, which was
rejected, would have authorized
$60 million for fiscal 1950 to
help build up South Korea. Nix
on voted against it while Herter
voted for it. But at the time Her
ter said he had "very serious
doubts" about the bill for fear
its statement of purpose would
commit the United States to a
long-term Korean aid program.
Other Differences
Nixon voted against the bill to
rescind the Postmaster General's
order curtailing postal deliveries
while Herter voted for it. At
issue was whether the money
the Post Office Department
saved in making fewer deliveries
outweighed the financial hard
ship suffered by such businesses
as mail order houses. The bill
was passed.
Nixon voted with the House
majority for an amendment to
restrict the Fair Employment
Practice Commission to an in
vestigating role instead of au-
Fortified Foods May ,
Help Underprivileged
Ithaca, N.Y. (U.R) Foods
fortified with synthetic amino
acids, or animal protein, may be
the key to helping underprivil
eged areas of the world upgrade
their diets.
A spokesman for the depart
ment of Biochemistry and Nutri
tion at Cornell University's State
college of agriculture, said that
in countries such as the United
States, where economy permits,
animals and animal products are
the principal sources of protein.
Dr. Harold Williams said that
even in the United States, we
are tearing to fortify foods of
low or poor quality protein with
protein-rich foods. He said milk
on cereal, or pork and beans are
good examples.
. "In our efforts to help the
underprivileged nations improve
their nutritional status and gain
economic stability," Dr. Williams
said, "the agriculture industry
has a powerful ally in the chem
ical laboratory where science
can synthetize the essential com
ponents of protein amino acids
suitable for upgrading low
quality diets."

ments, extend the draft act, re

voted for the Taft-Hartley Act.
They voted no on a bill in

Stone to be Used rr
All Phases of Building
Chicago (U.R A new devel
opment in '.i-inch thick quar
ried stone veneer is expected to
lead to more extensive use of
stone in all phases of the build
ing industry, according to
George Isaacs, president of the
Everglade Quarry Stone Co.,
Inc.
The Chicago concern has de
veloped a simplified and eco
nomical process for interior and
exterior stone construction
which, according to Isaacs, "will
conserve space, can he installed
quickly, and will result in con
siderable savings.
"Main features of the new
process," Isaacs said, "is that the
stones are individually anchored
on existing walls with anchors
or splines, eliminating weight
or pressure. Because of the ve
neer's self load-bearing qualities,
preparatory measures such as
reinforcements and added foot
ings are unnecessary, thus cut
ting costs considerably over in
stallation of conventional thick
er stone.
"In developing this new prod
uct, the company eliminated a
previous deterrent in the use of
thin stone veneer by develop
ing a magnesium mortar which
prevents rusting, corrosion, and
joint expansion."

The simple facts speak for themselves.
This new GMC 250-8 has 180 V8 horsepower
standard. No other truck in its class comes even
close to that.
The extra power delivers 276 foot-pounds of
truck-propelling torque. Over-the-road truckers
call it "guts" -and this GMC's got up to 33
more than the others.
It's at the top of the heap in frame-strength, too.
In fact, there's as much as 10 more "muscle" in
its chassis than you'll find in comparable trucks.
And there's more. For this rugged GMC has
3500 lb. front axles and 7200 lb. rear unsur
passed in its weight-bracket. It has extra-size
brakes and springs.
Add it all up and you can see what GMC Blue
Chip stamina really means. Especially when you
team it with a GMC's dependable performance
and Hydra-Matic savings. .
For here's a truck that not only delivers the
goods at lowest cost butjfcfleps delivering long
after an ordinary truck would have faded out.
