b eclar es Administration Should Supply Experts And Attorneys.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24 (U. P.).— Martin Dies (D. Tex.) of ‘the House inquiry into un-American Activities, today called on the Administration to “take the responsibility” for continuing or killing his investigation. + Mr, Dies held a press conference . In his office a few hours. after returning from a tour of New Orleans, Chicago and Detroit. He placed responsibility for the Committee’s future squarely on the tration. The Administration should give “bonafide help” to the Committee, he said, providing “enough attorneys, experts and statisticians to do the job, not just lip service.” *He also asserted Russia’s Communist activities in the country have violated the 1933 agreement under which the U. S. S. R. was recognized. “And less they can give definite assurances this won't happen any more we ought to sever rélations with them.” He added that unless subversive groups are checked, there will be a wave of sabotage and violence because Communists seek to “stop the manufacture and shipment of munitions to the Allies.”

with a stuffed great horned, or hoot, owl

There: is now a new strategy about to be tried in which the stuffed great horned, or hoot, owl will be substituted by live and hungry great horned, or hoot, owls. The idea is imported from Louisville. Some one told a friend of a starling hater that a building owner in Louisville put four great owls in cages and set them as sentinels atop his building about the time each evening when the starlings were expected. The report is that starlings thereafter gave the building a wide berth, and that the building owner was happy, and that there was a great scarcity of great horned owls in Kentucky. Great horned owls have long been regarded by conservationists as undesirable because of the very traits tT make them desirable in the real estate industry. They eat little birds. Starlings are little birds and subject to great horned owl eating. There are at least two reasons why the ‘owl sentinels must be caged. In the first place they are subject to claustraphobia, which is a psychiatric manifestation bringing acute discomfort to living things when they are near many other living things. Because of this, the owls usually stay in the open spaces and wouldn't think up a place like Indianapolis to be in. The second reason is, that left to their own devices, great horned owls néver sit down any place ex-

cept the highest. Thus, only t the

tried and failed to scare them away’

highest buildings would be patroled by loose owls. However, the cages have a decided disadvantage, because they greatly restrict the area a given owl can patrol and make it necessary for owls in bunches—the -bigger the building the bigger the bunches. It is extremely doubtful if the great horned, or hoot, owl population of the entire state of Indiana is great enough to effectively deal with the Indianapolis starling problem.

SCOFFS ATU. §, ECONOMY HINT

Promise’ for Slices, Says Vandenberg.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24 (U. P.) — Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg (R. Mich.) scoffed today at reports that President Roosevelt favors an economy program. Senator Vandenberg, a leading contender for the Republican Presidential nominatioh, also said he favored “special taxes” to meet ex-

traordinary national defense expenditures.

Replies to Early’s Statement

His statement was made when -asked to comment on an announce-

House secretary, who said there was a noticeable “trend” within the Administration toward economizing

and against additional taxes. Indications were that the deficit for the

11941 fiscal er might be kept to

$2,000,000,00 “This is Ge seventh consecutive annual Presidential promise of economy and start toward a balanced budget,” Senator Vandenberg said.

Defense Increases Threaten Both Chairman Pat Harrison (D. Miss.), of the Senate Finance Committee, and the White House have indicated that outlays for the

Army and Navy will be increased. The Navy Department is considering asking for. $1,300,000,000, while the War Department proposes to request -$1,700,000,000. Senator Vandenberg, & member of the Senate Finance Committee, indicated that he does not oppose increased appropriations for the Army and Navy, but he emphasized he thought they should be on a “pay-as-you-go” basis. “Debt can be as deadly as dynamite in the destruction of national values,” he warned.

BUZZARD AND SNAKE BLAMED FOR. BLAZE

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 24 (U. P.).— A buzzard and a stake were blamed today for a brush: fire which

threatened homes in Weldon Canyon north-of here. Three witnesses told Assistant Fire Chief F. W, Moore that the buzzard was flapping overhead with a long snake in its beak. The snake became entangled in a high tension power wire, sent an electrical charge into the buzzard and set the bird's wings afire. This resulted in the brush blaze when the burning buzzard flopped to the ground.

WOMAN, 74, HURT IN FALL

Mrs. Sarah Elizabeth, 74, of 822 S. Belle Vieu Place, was reported in a serious condition at City Hospital today after falling on a stairway at the home of her brother-in-law, Jesse Keppel, 1920 Mansfield Ave, yesterday. She received possible fractures of her hip and skull.
