The modern apartment house may have in its structure some sem- blances of the castle, but one could hardly use that symbol for a separate apartment. • • Have we lost, in this social process, deep and essenltal values? The ques- tion Is not easily answered. Undoubt- edly many people, in going from the old-fashioned home to a modern apartment, have been Impressed with the advantages of greater convenience and liberty, so far as the routine mat- ters of life are concerned. At any rate, there is some comfort in our lesson for dwellers under mod- ern conditions, in the fact that the lesson reminds us that the truest and greatest elements In home and fam- ily life are not necessarily associated with the natue of the dwelling and its environment.

The industry, winding up its six weeks of pre-Chrlstmas hearings yes- terday, received an emphatic asser- tion from the war department, oppos- ing nationalization of the munitions Industry as "a policy which would fail In war and therefore noes not appear logical in peace." The statement, presented by Lieu- tenant-Colonel C. T. Harris and ap- proved by Secretary Dern, argued It would cost $1,000,000,000 at the out- set to nationalize the industry and provide for equipping 4,000,000 sol- diers. The upkeep was estimated at $80,000,000 annually, which the army- high command contended would dou- ble the peace-time cost of national defense. Chairman Nye (R-ND) immediately replied his committee would shoot this argument "full of holes." With the committee's $50,000 gone, however, it was up to the Senate to say whether the Inquiry would go on. Committee members, planning a re- quest for more funds, say at least $5,000 additional is needed. Before meeting today to decide be on the way. Several foreign em- bassies have asked for transcripts of the hearings here, Including some South American. Although the committee was united in its demand for further inquiry, any attempt to get together on a legis- lative program was threatened with difficulties. Half a dozen proposals have come from various senators but few have received unanimous endorse- ment. Testifying yesterday about the war department's plans to mobilize national resources for any future war, Colonel Harris denied a contention of Sen- ator Clark (D-Mo) that a draft of labor was contemplated. "To the best of my knowledge and belief," he said, "the department is not contemplating a draft of labor." .He would neither deny or agree the collective bargaining as provided under NRA would be scrapped In war- time under the plan.

life lived within the house, the things tha t made it a center of family and home. The modern apar tment house may have in its structure some sem­blances of the castle, but one could hardly use tha t symbol for a separate apartment.

deep and essenltal values? The ques­tion Is not easily answered. Undoubt­edly many people, in going from the old-fashioned home to a modern apartment , have been Impressed with the advantages of greater convenience and liberty, so far as the routine mat­ters of life are concerned.

At any rate, there is some comfort in our lesson for dwellers under mod­ern conditions, in the fact tha t the lesson reminds us t ha t the truest and greatest elements In home and fam­ily life are not necessarily associated with the natue of the dwelling and its environment.

Lifelong Falls Resident Dies at Her Home; to Hold Funeral Monday

Miss Kather ine Geagan, a lifelong resident of this city, died this morn­ing a t her home, 221 Fifth street. The deceased, who was born Febru­ary 28, 1845, was the daughter of the late James and Ellen Geagan.

She is survived by one brother, James Geagan, and one sister, Miss Ellen Geasan, both of this city. Funeral services will be held Monday at the Quinn and Reardon funeral chapel at 8:45 a.m. and at 9 a m . at St. Mary's church, Fourth street. I n ­terment will be in St. Mary's ceme­tery.

The industry, winding up its six weeks of pre-Chrlstmas hearings yes­terday, received an emphatic asser­tion from the war department, oppos­ing nationalization of the munitions Industry as "a policy which would fail In war and therefore noes not appear logical in peace."

The statement, presented by Lieu­tenant-Colonel C. T. Harris and ap­proved by Secretary Dern, argued It would cost $1,000,000,000 at the out­set to nationalize the industry and provide for equipping 4,000,000 sol­diers. The upkeep was estimated at $80,000,000 annually, which the army-high command contended would dou­ble the peace-time cost of national defense.

Chairman Nye (R-ND) immediately replied his committee would shoot this argument "full of holes."

With the committee's $50,000 gone, however, it was up to the Senate to say whether the Inquiry would go on. Committee members, planning a re­quest for more funds, say at least $5,000 additional is needed.

Before meeting today to decide

be on the way. Several foreign em­bassies have asked for transcripts of the hearings here, Including some South American.

Although the committee was united in its demand for further inquiry, any at tempt to get together on a legis­lative program was threatened with difficulties. Half a dozen proposals have come from various senators but few have received unanimous endorse­ment.

Testifying yesterday about the war department 's plans to mobilize national resources for any future war, Colonel Harris denied a contention of Sen­ator Clark (D-Mo) tha t a draft of labor was contemplated.

"To the best of my knowledge and belief," he said, " the depar tment is not contemplating a draft of labor."

.He would neither deny or agree the collective bargaining as provided under NRA would be scrapped In war­time under the plan.

"Well." he said, "you can't have two bosses in time of war."
