LAN HAMS WEEKLY LETTER YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS Communist Spies The conviction of Alger Hiss, udy Coplon and Gubichev is clear evidence that there has ted for a long time an ex¬ tensive spy ring in the United es. The admission of Hans Klaus that he had given much irmation on atomic energy and our progress in making atom and hydrogen bombs to the Russians further Illustrates just how damaging to our na¬ tional defense such spies can be. Senator Joe McCarthy has ! made extravagant charges against our State Department to the effect that it is honey- I combed with subversives and j Communists. He has not yet jbeen able to substantiate any of his claims. As a matter of fact, he has rehashing cases that have already been investigated by the F. B. I. or the Loyalty Review Board, and nri Uinsp those charged with disloyalty either acquitted or fired Irom their jobs- Nevertheless, his charges have upset many people. While I do not believe that his charges are anything more than potty politics, nevertheless, it is true i that Red Spies are a real men¬ ace to our national safety. To curb their activities and to pre- vent their doing any real dam- age to our country, the House has just taken three steps. Anti-Spy Legislation The first step was to pass H. R. 4703 on March 14th, by a vote cf 3G8-2. This bill doubles the penalty for conspiracy to reveal secret information, and extends the period of limitation for prosecution from 3 to 10 years. The second step was to allot to the Committee on Un-Ame¬ rican Activities $150,000 for the continuation of its investigation of Communist and other sub¬ versive activities. At one time the powers of this committee were used improprely, although I have always supported it with adequate appropriations. But at present, under the direction of Congressman Jchn Wood of Georgia’s Ninth District, the committee is shunning the head lines and is doing really cons¬ tructive work. So I was happy to vote for the increased appro- Cloverdale Home monstration Club The Cloverdale Home Demon¬ stration Club met March 24th at the heme of Mrs. M. E. Newman with 14 present. The meeting opened with a song, then a pray¬ er by Mrs. Byron Forester and the devotional by Mrs. Charles Bible. Next was the roll call and reading of the minutes by the secretary. The duties of our Fair Com¬ mittee were discussed again. Miss Vestal told us about the Council Meeting April 4 with a demonstration on party refresh¬ ments. She also told us to be thinking about Home Demons¬ tration week that will be the first week in May and to try to plan an exhibit cr something special for that time. It was de¬ cided that we would change our meeting time from 1:30 to 2:00 next meeting. Miss Vestal gave us a demon¬ stration on making reed baskets. Several games were played and enjoyed by everyone and deli¬ cious refreshments were served by the hostess. Hooker H. D. Club met The Hooker Home Demons¬ tration Club met Thursday March 23rd at* the home of Mrs. Lily Mae. Drew. The program began as Mrs. Kirchmeyer gave the devotionals. The president, Mrs. Bradfield had been called to Memphis, Tenn., on account of the illness of her mother and Mrs. Mit- chum presided. An interesting program was given by the Program director, Mrs. C. M. Smith. Miss Vestal gave an interest¬ ing demonstration on reed weaving. Delicious refreshments were served by the hostess.

It is free. The third step taken by the House tor the protection of our nation against spies, was the action of its appropriation com¬ mittee in allowing Mr. Edgar Hoover and his FBI all the mo¬ ney for which he asked. The FBI under Mr. Hoover has done a remarkable job. This ad¬ ditional appropriation will en¬ able the organization to hire more experts and buy more equipment so that it can do a more efective job Co-operative Housing Defeated In my last report I told you 0 j> m y position on the question of , the proposal for . co-operative housings whereby a new govern- men t a i bank would have been set up to make loans co _ op e ralive groups for building houseS) at 3 y 4% interest> for a per j od 0 f up s jxty three years As I predicted, this feature of the bill was defeated. We then passed the bill without that ; eature It extends Title I of the FH A act> other desirable pro visions for lendlng money for the construction of homes. Co- Operatives can qualify under these provisions on the same term as Veterans and other per¬ sons and groups wanting to borrow money to build homes. The difference is that under the bill as it was passed, they are not given preferencial status as was at first proposed. Hoover Commission Report The Committee on Expendi¬ tures in the Executive Depart¬ ments, of which I am a mem¬ ber, has been holding hearings on some of the twenty-one re¬ organization plans in line with the Hoover Commission Recom¬ mendations, recently sent down by the President. While some objections have been raised by different groups, it is probable that most of them wil be allowed to become a law. New Salem Home H. D. Club met The New Salem Home Dem¬ onstration Club met with Mrs. Pauline Massey Thursday March 21st. The meeting was called to order by the vice president, Mrs. W. T. McCauley. Mrs. McCauley read a poem, “He Serves Man¬ kind and God.” Prayer, Mrs. M. G. Bradford lead the Lord’s Prayer. The minutes were read by the Secretary, Mrs. T. H. Moore. Miss Vestal gave a demonstra¬ tion on making baskets and trays. Thirty members were present. The next meeting will be with Mrs. Katherine Moore. The program is on making table lamps.
