Truman Signs
Arms Aid Hill
WASHINGTON. </Pi—President
Truman’s signature on a bill pro
viding cash for arms aid to non
communist nations Saturday left
only minor obstacles in the path
ot the $1,314,010,000 program.
Most of the recipient countries
must sign agreements with the
United States before Mr. Truman
can start sizeable munitions ship
ments on their way.
In addition to the arms aid pro
gram, the bill includes $62,000,000
for military construction in Alas
ka and Okinawa.
Hi, Kids!
Nell Muncy says the fireworks
start at 7:00 and will keep going
until the pinwheels go off as a
grand finale.
Again she reminds all children
to stay behind the fence on First
Avenue for safety’s sake.
Also that this is a treat of the
merchants of Nome and in appre
ciation it is hoped that tricking
will not be indulged in this year.
The fireworks will be sent up
from the sandspit side of the
mouth of Snake River.

Vice-President
Barkley To Marry
St. Louis W idow
ST. LOUIS, </P)—Vice President
Alben W. Barkley, who has
scored many successes in a long
political career, has also proved
himself lucky in love.
Mrs. Carleton S. Hadley, the
comely young widow whom he
courted diligently for nearly four
months, announced last night that
the two would be married here
Nov. 18.
The announcement was made
informally in the presence of a
few freinds and newspapermen in
Mrs. Hadley’s apartment as the
vice-president stood by smiling.
Wedding details were not made
public. Friends expected the cere
mony would be a simple one and
would be performed in one of the
local Methodist churches. Both
the 71-year-old Kentuckian and
his 38-year-old bride-to-be are
members of that faith.
The wedding announcement,
set for 7 p.m., was delayed nearly
thirty minutes while the “veep”,
as he likes to be called, put
through a phone call to President
Truman to Washington. The pres
ident seemed “pleased and happy”
at the news, Barkley reported.
The former senator then turned
to those present and said chival
rously: “The vice-president yields
—shall we say—to the senator
from Missouri.”
Mrs. Hadley, with eyes spark
ling, said simply: “the vice-presi
dent and I are going to be mar
ried on the 18th of November.
The plans will be announced
later.”
The first LL.D. of Harvard Col
lege was conferred on Professor
John Winthrop in 1773.

Rep. Thomas
Must Stand Trial
WASHINGTON, UP) — Federal
Judge Alexander Holtzoff ruled
Friday that Rep. J. Parnell Tho- j
mas <R.-N. J.) must stand trial
Nov. 7 on charges of defrauding
the government.
Holtzoff refused a further con
tinuance of the trial, already sev
eral times postponed, after receiv
ing a report on Thomas’ physical
condition from two private physi
cians. The doctors were named by
the court to examine him.
Defense attorneys had contend
ed that the 54-year-old Thomas,
who is suffering from a stomach
disorder, is too ill too appear for
trial.
Thomas, one-time chairman of
the House committee on un-Amer
ican activities, was indicted a year
ago on charges of conspiring to de
fraud the government. The indict
ment accused the lawmaker of of
fice-payroll-padding and taking
“kickbacks” from employees.
Navy Secretary
Thumbs Nose At
Noisy Critics
WASHINGTON, IJP)—Secretary
of the navy Matthews, calmly ig
noring lawmakers’ demands that
he quit, combed through a list of
admirals Saturday seeking a suc
cessor to Louis Denfeld as chief of
naval operations.
Matthews gave not the slightest
indication that he intended to
heed angry cries for his resigna
tion from at least two members
of Congress. But he decined any
comment on that or other state
ments from Congressional quar
ters.
Denfeld’s special assistant, Capt.
Walter Karig. told reporters he
expects the admiral to retire from
the navy rather than take a lesser
post.
Vehement assertions that Mat
! thews should leave the defense de
I partment came from Senator
I Knowland <R.-Calif.) and Rep.

<)K. Judge Hides
LOS ANGELES, <&)—In Calif
ornia anyway, a policeman doesn’t
need a search warrant to pump
out a suspect’s stomach for evi
dence.
Superior Judge W. Turney Fox
handed down that ruling Friday
and convicted Anthony Rochin,
22-vear-old truck driver on a nar
cotics charge. Rochin’s lawyers
protested that using a stomach
pump against a man’s will is the
same as making him testify agains*
himself.
Judge Fox said he was sorry but
the California supreme court had
ruled that evidence is admissible,
no matter how you get it.
Officers testified that after they
broke into Rochin’s room last July
1 he swallowed two morphine cap
sules lying on a table.
