The mm sister, Emille, died in August 1954. "The girls are gcing to see their parents to prove that there is no question of them drifting away from their family," Edwards said. The girls' father said Tuesday that for the first time in their lives tbev had failed to spend Christmas at home. He added they had not even telephoned. He charged the girls were "drifting away from their family" and blamed "outside ers" he would not identify for the alleged rift. Edwards said the girls were con. cerned over their father's state ment and "that's why they are going to see them." He scoffed at reports that romances may have had a part in the misunderstand ing, saying that none of the four sisters has any serious romantic interest. - Kutcher Fights For Vet Pay WASHINGTON l-0ames Kutcher. a legless veteran accused of disloyal activities, carried to Washington today his fight to save his S329-a-month federal war in Jury compensation. A hearing before the Veterans Administration Central Committee on . Waivers and Forfeitures waa called to determine whether he should be stripped of his veterans oenelits. - Kutcher, who lost both legs un der mortar fire In World War II, was fired In 1948 from his job as a file clerk in the VA's Newark, N.J., office. He was charged with membership in the Socialist Work ers party, listed by the attorney general as a. subversive organiza tion. He Is still fighting that case in court. Then the VA announced Dec. 23 that a regional office had sus pended Kutcher's $329 payment Nov. 30. but that the payments were being restored pending an investigation. Kutcher's attorneys, Joseph L, Rauh Jr. and John Slilard. de manded that today's hearing be nncn to the public and that he be allowed to confront his accusers. VA officials indicated the pro. cecdings would be open but that, as usual in federal loyalty-security cases, the unnamed accusers would not appear to testify. Kutcher has denied making what ne called "wild statements" against the government, but says he favors a peaceful approach to socialism. NATIONAL BIRD COUNT COCOA, Fla. tl A new national record was claimed today by the Cocoa Audubon - Society, which counted 184 species of birds In a 24-hour period.

Moscow advised the United States in advance of Yalta that It tvauled to break up Garmauy into smaller nations, "demilitarize Ger man industry, and collect repara tions in machineiy over a 10-year PCI'IOO. ! These and other fragments of history some o them shedding ! added light on the origins ol the; colu war are disclosed in the pub-1 lication of more than 40 previously ; seoiet uocumenis ueariug on me, Yalla conference. Tiie Slate Department printed the documents together with vast accumulation nf other papers in a 1,032-pase, volume put on sale by the Government Pruning olllcc late yesterday. Only these 40 or so items are new, and most of them deal with minor developments of the 1944-45 period. The great bulk of. the Yalta papers were mtde public .last March. Now the whole collection has become available in book form at 15.50 a copy. Joseph Reap. State Department press officer, said the new papers came from "scraping the barrel" in the Roosevelt Liorary in Hyde Park. N.Y.. and from various gov ernment aources. The new additions provided some interesting footnotes to the history of that period near the end of World War n, and included a humorous touch. The late Harry L. Hopkins, spe cial presidential assistant, wrote Roosevelt from London in January 1945, shortly before the Yalta con ference, that he had talked with Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Hopkins continued: ' "He says that if we had spent 10 years on research, we could not have found a worse place in the world than Magneto (code name for (Yalta) but that he feels that he can survive It by bringing an adequate supply oi wnisKy. He claims it 1r good for typhus and deadly on lice which thrive in those parts." Labor Strikes Guess Made WASHINGTON I The Labor Department estimated today that 4.200 strikes caused 28 million man days of idleness In 1955. The number of work stoppages was 21 per cent greater thin the 3.468 reported in 1954. Lost time In 1955 was nearly 24 per cent more than last year. The review noted that while strike Idleness this year exceeded 1954, it was the third best year since the end of World War II. The number of strikes In 1955 was about 20 per cent less than the postwar peak of 5,117 stoppages recorded in 1952. Approximately i'4 million work ers were involved in the 1955 stop pages, nearly 80 per cent more than the 1,530.000 In 1954. The de partment said a substantial p.rt of the Increase resulted from one or two-day work stoppages In the steel and automobile Industries at the time of contract negotiations. The 1955 estimates were given in a preliminary review of labor- management disputes by the Bu reau of Labor Statistics. Partly as a result of long-term agreements expiring during this year, the number of work slop- pages Involving 10.000 or more workers rose to 26 compared with 18 in 1954. The average worker involved in these stoppages was Idle about 11 working days in 1955 compared with 17 In 1954. Disputes over wages and related issues were a major cause in 19 of the 28 largest strikes in 1955. OFFICE SPACE City center. Main Street entrance, quiet tenants. DREWS Manstore You're Invited!

Chairman Moss (D-Calif dis closed at the same time that four agencies have been asked to ex plain why they use the term "con fidential" to restrict circulation of nondefensc Information. An exec utive order of Dec. 15, 1953, lim ited use of the "confidential" clas sification generally to defense ma terial. Despite the order. Moss said, the Interior Department, the Federal Reserve Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the De partment of Health, Education and Welfare "misuse" the term or va rlatlons of it to keep wraps on nondefense information. Moss' group, a subcommittee of the House Government Operations Committee, conducted hear ings last fall. Moss said information gathered by his committee indicates "many federal agencies have little Inter est In opening up the avenues of acess to public Information." Current plans are to hold the new hearings shortly after Congress re convenes next week. Charlei Fay'i fr DINNER & DANCING & COFFEE SHOP Open Every Night Located on Calif.-Ore. border .
