HOLLYWOOD HIT:
House Votes
Against 10 1
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24-)-
In rapid-fire order, the House to-
day voted contempt citations
against 10 Hollywood script writ-
ers. directors and producers who
refused to say "yes" or "no" when
asked whether they were Conmm-
nists.
Veterans enrolled in the Uni-
-ersity on a part-time basis may
oe entitled to partial subsistence
payments under the G.I. Bill, Vet-
erans Administration officials ex-
plained yesterday.
Student veterans without de-
partments are entitled to substi-
tute allowances of $65 monthly for
full-time courses, $48.75 for three-
quarter time courses, $32.50 for
half-time and $16.25 for one-
quarter time. Veterans with de-
pendents may receive $90 monthly
for full-time, $67.50 for three-
quarter time, $45 for half-time
and $22.50 for one-quarter time.
The law provides that income
from outside work, plus the sub-
sistence allowance, cannot exceed
$175 a month for a veteran with-
out a dependent or $200 monthly
if he has one or more dependents.
Subsistence allowances of vet-
erans taking full-time courses
who earn more than $110 monthly
are reduced accordingly to keep
the combined income within the
limitations These ceilings also
apply to veterans taking part-time
education.
If a veteran is enrolled in the
University on a part-time basis,
his period of educational eligi-
bility is prorated. For example, a
veteran eligible for one year of
education who attends a course on
a half-time basis may continue in
training for a two year period.
In a move aimed at improving
the quality of veterans' newly-
built homes, the Veterans Admin-
istration has announced inaugura-
tion of a new plan for VA inspec-
tion of houses while they are under
construction.
The plan provides for a pre-
construction appraisal of "reason-
able value" for G.I. loan purposes,
based on complete plans and spec-
ifications; and for a minimum of
three interim inspections as the
work advances to insure adherence
to the standards agreed upon, VA
officials explained.
* * *
To speed active medical treat-
ment of veteran-patients, the re-
ception services in Veterans' Ad-
ministration Hospitals are being
abolished, VA officials announced
recently.
In the future, all general medi-
cal and surgical patients will be
admitted directly into active treat-
ment wards where their case his-
tories, necessary X-rays and oth-
er routine examinations will be
made.
Previously, these functions were
conducted by the reception serv-
ices pending assignment of pa-
tients to treatment words.

VETS CHECKS_
Checks are being held at the
Ann Arbor Post Office for the fol-
lowing veterans:

M. Harvill, Jr., George Lemberger,
Murray F. Markland, Dorothy N.

lumbus, O.

Contempt
iovie Men
By sending the citations to the
United States District Attorney
for prosecution, the House over-
whelmingly backed its Committee
on un-American Activities, which
had questioned the men in its in-
vestigation of alleged Communisn
in Hollyviood.
Maximum punishm(ut for con-
tempt of Congress is a year in jail
and $1,000 fine.
The 10 contended that by in-
quiring into their political beliefs,
the committee was violating the
onstituticn.
Although each of the cases was
handled separately by the House,
there was only one roll-call vote
and it thumpingly upheld the
committee, 346 to 17.
Rep. Thomas, chairman cf the
committee, told the House the 10
were subpoenaed "because our in-
vestigation had disclosed that they}
were Communists or had long rec-r
ords of Communist affiliation and
activities."'

Stassen Opens
New Campaign
Calls for 'Forward
Looking Proposals'
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 24-(IP)--
Harold E. Stassen formally
launched his campaign for the Re-
publican presidential nomination
tonight with a plan to blend "lib-
eral, forward looking proposals"
with "conservative attitudes.
The former Minnesota governor
offered an eight-point domestic
and international program to
overcome "boom or bust tenden-
cies."
Wants Funds
The former Minnesota governor
appealed frankly for funds as well
as votes in his first official cam-
paign appearance. He spoke at the
Milwaukee Auditorium.
Stassen gave top priority to
housing and what he termed "lack
of adequate health service" in out-
lining his program at the cam-
paign kickoff sponsored by the Re-
publican organization of Wiscon-
sin and the Stassen for President
Volunteers of Wisconsin.
Social Security
"Everyone on social security
should be covered by an insurance
that will pay duly verified and
reasonable bills which are incurred
for medical and hospital expenses
in excess of $250 in any one year,"
he said.
"Through this means the eco-
nomic castrophe that comes with
major illness or accident is re-
moved, but the entire indepen-
dence of the medical profession
and the personal responsibility of
the individual citizen for his ordi-
nary expense is retained."

A recently completed survey at
Kansas State College reveals that
room and 'board rates for women
here are among the highest charg-
ed at any of the 13 schools in-
eluded in the survey.
The survey revealed that rates
range from a high of $14.44 week-
ly at Wisconsin to a low of $9.72
at the University of Missouri,
The University of Michigan is
listed in the highest bracket along
with Wisconsin, Ohio State and
the University of Iowa. Rates at
all of these schools are above
$12.50 per week for women.
The survey, covering a period
from 1942 to the present, was
drawn up by Helen Moore, dean of
women at Kansas State College.
She revealed that room and board
rates for women have increased
at all of the schools, in some cases
as much as 50 percent. Largest
increases are in the board bills.
Other schools surveyed, whose
rates are between $11 and $12.50
weekly, include: Colorado A and

of Education, University of Ok-

Randolph's appearance here to-
