T"AuE sia- (Second Secuuu Tin; T7A YNES VTLLE MOUNTAINS Monday Afternoon, Octolr 8 Ex-Spy Hunter Vill Now Seek Price Chiselers WASHINGTON Big Ed Morgan, who used to track down Red spies as an FBI agent, now is the na tion's 'super sleuth for price ehis e'trs' He's enforcement director tw the Office of Price Stabiliza tion lOPSi, "I'm sold on the idea that we're in the battle of our lives for the 'survival of freedom," he said, from across his desk at OPS headquar ters. "Keeping this country's econ omy sound is a big part of that battle." Morpan spent seven years with the FBI. specializing in intelli gence and espionage work. Then for four years, while in private law practice, he roamed the coun try, mainly at his own expense, making lectures "trying to awaken the American people to the menace of Communism." "I caught a few rotten tomatoes in New York City, too," he laugh ed He was associate counsel of the coneressional committee which investigated the Pearl Harbor dis aster and chief counsel of the Senate Foreign Relations subcom mittee which probed charges of Communism in the State Depart ment. Morgan went to work last March as price controls cop for Michael V; DiSalle, the OPS chief. He's built. up an enforcement staff from less than 200 to more than 2,000 and expects he'll need more than 5,000 to do the right kind of job. "We're not trying to scare or persecute anyone," he said, "But we do intend to see that price reg ulations are enforced. We don't want to send anyone to jail. But if we have to, we will. We are try ing to build u? an organization that will inspire public confidence." Morgan has practically hand picked his big staff, now lpcated in more than 100 offices across the naUon, Many are former FBI men. For an assistant he called out of retirement Dwight Brantley, form er FBI agent " in Kansas City, his old boss. All these men work directly un der Morgan's direction from Wash ington. He also keeps a crack staff of 200 agents on tap here to "shoot anywhere in the nation where a special job needs attention. Morgan said a great deal of the enforcement office's work so far has been in visiting "business es tablishments to make sure they know about regulations. But he In dicated he felt they ought to know by now and that OPS may not be so lenient in the future. 1 I ) , it Want ads bring quick results.

''v: "'.'." ''' '''-' . The meeting was part of a six week experiment the U. S. Govern ment carried on in the hope that German women would see new ways to take part in their govern ment. German women are extremely important to U. S. officials trying I,, turn Western Germany into a democracy. Women make up 68 per cent of the population and two thirds of the vote. But these offi cials have found German women held back by two conditions: (1) the traditional attitude of German men that women are indifferent workers and (2) remnants of the Nazi phil osophy, which made women entire ly subservient to men. So the U. S. Government shipped 11 women leaders over for six weeks. They were a group that even American women would walk five miles to see: Mrs. Arthur Anderson Of the Y. W. C. A., Mrs. Harold D.

S. military death since the first Minute Man fell In the Battle of Lexington on April 19, 1775, probably occurred on Labor Day or September 4. This estimate was made today by the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies, which has eon ducted a comparative study of war and traffic casualties In connection with the forthcoming millionth automobile death in the nation's history, now expected to ocurr next December. . An intensive traffic safely campaign started lost Janu ary by the Association's accident prevention department to postpone until early in 1952 the death of "Victim X," civilian counterpart of "GI-X," has since enlisted the sup port of the National Safety Coun cil, law enforcement agencies and other groups endeavoring to end public apathy toward the mounting toll of automobile accidents. ' As America's millionth war death was recorded in Korea, the Associ ation said, a record Labor Day week-end toll of 461 traffic deaths in three days sent the all-time total of highway dead to 987,500 since the turn of the century. At the end of the week In which "GI-X" fell in battle after 176 years and 19 weeks of American history, the traffic death toll, now averaging more than 100 fatalities a day, had passed 988,000. some 12,000 short of the historic million mark. From the start of the Korean war on June 25, 1950, to last August 31. total of 13,707 U. S. combat deaths occurred, according to the Defense Department. The Associ ation's study indicates that during the first 63 weeks of the Korean war, more than 44,000 men, women and children were killed in auto mobile accidents. This total in cludes an estimated 875 traffic death? during the first seven days of September, an unusually high figure because of the record Labor Day week-end toll of 401 fatalities. Get Type Fr Purpose There are various types of in- terior varnisheB. Each is made according to the purpose it is to serve. Generally speaking, interior varnishes are harder but not as resistant to weather as exterior varnishes. Floor varnishes, for in stance, are characterized by a high resistance to abrasion in order to withstand constant traffic. Another type, furniture varnish,, must not soften under the heat of the body Pick Turner CULLOWHEE (Special) At their first meeting of the year after assembly on September 25, the Senior Class elected Dr. W Newton Turner as their faculty ad visor. - Dr. Turner, professor of geo graphy and geology, has served as advisor to the senior classes for several years. The seniors also decided to sponsor a variety show, to be given in November. Officers of the class for 1951-52 are Pockets Brown, .president; Rip Daughtery, vice - president: Jerdle Ferguson, secretary; and Sid Hall, treasurer. : Columbian Sources Relatively important producers of columbium, as now known, are the Belgian Congo and Brazil. In 1946, it was reported that rich columbium deposits had been found in the Ural Mountains of the Soviet Union. The southern part of Manchuria, from which Chinese Communists have been moving in on the Korean struggle, was said, in 1947, to con tain uranium and other ores, mixed with columbium. Within recent weeks, Norway has announced plans for working new-found columbium holding deposits. FREE! $50.00 FREE!
