Roosevelt.” At the same time, Committee Chairman John Wood of Georgia promises there isn't going to be any avenue left untouched as the group digs into the story. For the sake of the American people, he The story must either be »orated or disproved.” Wood's committee says, will question General Leslie Groves, retired, who ran the war- time atom bomb proje: Com- mittee officials say there may be 40 or 50 more witnesses. But there is no indication yet when; Wallace may be called. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt says the charges are outrageous that Harry Hopkins was_ instru- mental in sending atomic infor-| mation to Russia. Hopkins .was the late President's adviser. Such a charge was made by a former Air Force. Major, George Racey Jordan. Said Mrs. Roosevelt: “I cannot imagine Mr. Hopkins trying to hurt his country when he literal-' it. I have! ly killed himself for never met or heard of Mr. Jordan, but if you look far enough you will find someone who will find) fault with anyone.” Mrs. Reosevelt added: “Mr. Hopkins cannot fight back. He is, dead.” TE Men “a To Picture Local Seenes, For Showing All Over Nation “Roads To Romnace” Will Show Married Couple With Their Children On Visit yup of technicolor moving picture men arrived in Key West last night and will remain until Thursday night photographing scenes around the city “Roads to Ron Roads to Romance” will ed for showing in mo- tion picture houses throughout the country.

The new streets now under construction include Fogarty ave- nue and Harris avenue between! First and Fifth streets, an ex- tension of Duck avenue through |Swamps and Leon street all the » way to A‘lantic avenue. In the construction of Harris} and Fogarty avenues, the city! had to dump seVeral hundred cubic yards of marl over which the roadways will run. The con-} struction was aimed to open up} many properties on which new! , homes are being built. Laird street between Thomp-| son and George streets is like- wise under construction. Many persons have expressed the hope that they will be able to build e> ; the lots once the streets are laid! out and vmpleted. Johnson street, between ; Thompson and George street, is talso to be opened up. The work} consists of filling, grading and j binding tie top of the roadways | with oil. All the streets are be- {ing treated in that manner, so! that the property may be reach- | ed over well constructed roads.
