Proponents of the proposal to increase the quota of displaced persons permitted to enter the United States were rudely frustrated by Congress Saturday in shelving action until next January, and so keen has been the disappointment of some of the leaders in the program that they are insinuating the United States is neglectful of these unfortunates and mot at all humani- ta ria in dealin witkthese victims of the war, In view of the extreme generosity which the people of this country have displayed in attempting to aid other peoples, it comes with ill grace to hear such criticism at this, time. In all history never has there been recorded such efforts of a victorious 'nation to assist the vanquished" and 'allies In postwar read" justments as the United States has exerted since the Jap surrender. When one is inclined to be critical it is the statistics as given Congress Spnator Harry Byrd of Virginia when he recently outiined the assistance this goveftmenf has tended since the end of the war. He called attention to the fact that $320,000,000 for direct relief for military supplies, some $2,600,000,000 has been spent in UNRRA and that by the end of this year there will be has been spent for government and relief in occupied RITES FOR BROTHER OF LOCAL MAN TO BE HELD Charles August Helander, 75, well known Rutland farmer and brother of Gus Helander, 901 E.

As for specific arguments the Navy built up in its 10 days of testimony before the Symington did Ms own point bom bing on one after another.

The charge that the Air Force went oyer the head of then Se cretary of Defense Forrestal in buying more B-36s early this year Just doesnt make sense in the light of the facts. And, he said, it Is an equally false story that the Air Force is putting all its eggs in one basket with the B-36. Raps Loo Talk derided as simply loose talk designed to catch headlines a Navy statement that the B36 -is a biIlion-dollar blunder. He said the whole program will cost considerably less than a billion. He rejected as a misstatement the Navy's complaint that the Air Force is offering an Atomb blitz pattern of warfare as a quick, easy and painless way to And it Just is not true, Symington said, "that the Air Forcefavors mass Atofnb bombing of civilians.

The air secretary said the disturbing thing about the attacks on the-Air7 Force and the rest of the military establishment is what they have done and are doing to imperil the security of the United States. He went on: It was bad enough to have given a possible aggressor technical and operating details of our newest, and latest equipment In my opinion it is far worse to have opened up him lpsuch detail the military doctrines Pt how- this country would be defended. We have given the military leaders of any aggressor nation further advantage iii developing their strategic plan by telling them so much about our own." C. C.

City Building 1 Inspection Fees Are Same for All Buildiqg inspection fees are be ing applied to one and all alike, without exception, Conrad Esch- bach, informed the eftyreoiinciriasf night, when a question of discrim- was given an airing. The subject was I raised when Commissioner Herman Engel re-ported the complaints of two ex-GIs, who he said, told of being assessed fees of $1.50 per $1,000 on the estimated cost of homes they were building, whereas in the past others had paid only $1 the same- Eschbach agreed that for two years he had reduced the fee to ex-GIs to contrary to the ordinance which calls for a fee of $L50, but because of the amount of work involved and the small sum realized after income tax deductions, had discontinued the. policy, and was making the same rate applicable to all builders. He was supported in his stand by members of the council, who took the position that as long as the ordinance fixed the definite fees, there should be no exception regardless of the status of the person affected.

Unification of the armed services is theoretically sound despite todays bickering and apparent insubordination on the part of the Navy in opposing-the broad program of operation. -The plan likewise is practicable and can be worked out, but certainly there is need for a Houdini to devise the system.

To date there has not been unification though technically it has been in force and it would seem that the big barrier to actuals coordination has developed because of necessity of one branch of the services to be controlled by the other two branches. Just as surely as it becomes'advisable for two branches to reject a proposal by the third, that third department is going to resent and perhaps sulk. That is what is happening today -the Navy has not been willing to stand by idly and watch its program decided by the army and the air force. la the pastirbas been possible for any one of the branches John Novak, who were awarded the Mfrvisiting friends and renewing to appear before Congress lZP -equintaoeesrMr-aHnian awarded to Mr. and Donal has been associated with the Wal- donation of $25 was voted to the Community Chest and a report was given by Clodagh Meyer and Berna-dine Baker-on "the recent drive which the club conducted for the Emergency Polio Fund in Streator Following the business session.
