The measure, which includes for the first time the cost of family housing for servicemen, was approved by Senate Tuesday on a voice vote. It totaled about

$125 million less than the Pentagon had asked, but was $52 million more than the House approved.

Saturday, Oct. 17, 1863, the secretary of War. Edwin M.

Stanton, met, in Louisville, Ky., the conqueror of Vicksburg. Hiram Ulysses (U. S.) Grant. Grant was told W. S. Rosecrans, the loser at Chickamauga. had been "fired” us

commander of the Army of the Cumberland. He, the retired captain whose application for duty in 1861 had been ignored by the War Department (he got into service via Illinois militia), was Lincoln’s choice as overall general of the Union Armies of the Tennessee, Cumberland and Ohio. With professional acuteness, Grant reached •out for staff officers upon whom he could depend to be competent, resourceful and unflagging. One whom he brought to his headquarters was a captain of engineers in the Army of Tennessee who had all the fighting qualities of the American Indian. Ely Samuel Parker [+—], chief sachem of the Senecas, had educated himself as a civil engineer. His wide-ranging construction jobs had taken him to Grant’s home town, Galena, before the war; the two had become friends. Grant made Parker his military secretary, the post the Seneca was to hold, as a lieutenant colonel, until Appomattox. (Parker wrote for Grant the official copies of the terms of Lee’s surrender.) Parker might have been on the Southern side in the war, if Virginia had been tolerant then of people of Pocahontas’ race. Parker studied law in Virginia in the 1840s, but was refused admittance to the bar as a non-white. He turned to an engineering career, in which his race was not a disqualification. Whiis Chief Parker was serving the North, Chief Stand Watie of the Cherokees led a regiment of cavalry in the Confederate army. He earned promotion to general. Watie and his brigade were still fighting when Lee's army surrendered. ' —CLARK KINNAIRD

'Wooly , Walls Add Extra Living Space Like to add living area to a room without increasing its size? Sounds like a good trick, and it is if you live in an older home where cold walls make the outer edges of rooms unusable in winter. The answer is to insulate walls with mineral wool to recommended standards, make doors and windows weather-tight by using weather stripping, and use storm sash or insulating glass on all window areas. Once you’ve done that, you’ll find the comfortable living area of your home extended from a small area far from the outside wall of each room to the entire room. What’s more, those footfreezing drafts that once swept down from the cold walls arid across the floors will have disappeared. Virtually any home, regardless of its age or design, can be insulated to recommended standards by a contractor who uses pneumatic equipment to blow mineral wool into walls, ceilings, and floors over unheated areas. Once installed, the insulation will not only provide winter warmth, but will also keep the house cooler in summer—and heating and cooling bills will be lower for the lifetime of the house.

Pienty Of Clocks In New Building MEMPHIS, Tenn. UPI — Everyone agreed the new federal building was a clockwatcher's paradise. Inadvertently so. Employes of 50 federal agencies, moving into the $13.5 million structure Monday, found nothing but clocks on several of the building's 11 floors. Some of the 365 clocks were stewn about various rooms. Others were stacked wall to wall, defying admission to offices.

Shelter Not Enough, We Want Comfort

In case you’ve wondered, comfort is good for you. Psychologists have found that physical comfort helps students to learn and workers to earn. It helps prevent accidents and illness and it can turn a disgruntled parent into a lamb and a screaming infant into a cherub. What is comfort? It might be defined as the absence of discomfort. Ask a handful of people what comes to mind when they think of comfort and you’ll get an assortment of replies-”easy shoes,” “a light in your room at night,” “a soft bed,” “a nice, neat, warm home," are examples. The more people you ask, the more often you’ll hear the word “warm.” Sometimes it means the psychological warmth of friendship and security, but it’s more apt to refer to physical warmth— a warm bed, warm clothes, a w arm house. ‘Ahhh,’ Not Tgh’ Starting with the day in the dim past when Fred Flintsto:.e the First stumbled out of the cold wind into a cave and found himself saying “ahhh” instead of ‘‘ugh,” man has been trying to provide more comfort for himself and his family—often at any

cost.

Man has built fires, pitched tents, constructed open shelters, invented windows and storm windows, doors and storm doors. He has hung tapestries on cold castle walls, built walk-in fireplaces, and warmed his beds with hot stones, warming pans, and electric blankets. When Benjamin

ing stove, people snapped them up and bricked up the fireplaces from which untold billions of British thermal units had escaped up the chimneys. Today we’re unbricking them, but we’re not, by gosh, letting much heat escape from our

homes.

Suffering Over After centuries of suffering from the discomfort of cold walls and drafts that swept icily across floors to freeze innocent feet, Nineteenth Century Man finally did something about it. He invented insulation. But it was only about 30 years ago that the American home owner really woke up to the fact that wrapping his house in mineral w'ool insulation would not only make him comfortable but would also save fuel. Now almost everybody's doing it. Instead of buying bigger, more expensive furnaces and burning more and more fuel, the contemporary home owner makes sure his new house is insulated to recommended standards with batts or blankets of mineral wool in floors, ceilings and walls. Then he buys a smaller heating unit and burns less fuel. He saves enough money on fuel in a few years to pay for the insulation. He also buys a smaller air conditioning unit, if he’s installing one, and pays less for it and less to run it, too. Then he and his family learn what living comfort really is— as long as they live in that house they’re warm in winter and cool in summer, secure and satisfied

“This is a little extravagant,” admitted a spokesman for the General Services Administration GHA, which manages the buildings. GSA building manager Mervyn Anderson-Smith said the clock-log resulted from a slip-up

in the contract for the building. He said the contract provided tor installation of the clocks over office doors, but it failed to specify the locations.
