Presdent Truman Warns
Cease-Fire Negotiations
May Be Communist Trap
KEY WEST, Fla., (JP) — The
country has warning from Presi
dent Truman that Red negotia
tions for a cease-fire in Korea
may be no more than a commun
ist trap.
“We cannot,” the President as
serted, “allow our men to be
caught off balance by the enemy
in case we cannot reach a satis
factory armistice.”
Mr. Truman, meeting with
newsmen for the second time
since he flew to Key West Nov.
8, told them in blunt terms that
the fighting will continue in Ko
rea as long as there is a possibil
ity that United Nations forces
might be caught off balance.
“The continued pressure of our
forces on the enemy constitutes
the strongest incentive for the
latter to agree to a just armis
tice,” he said.
Mr. Truman warned, as his
press secretary, Joseph Short, did
Wednesday, that there has been,
no cease-fire in Korea and “can
be none until an armistice has
been signed.”

Garland Fund
Tie-Up Denied
By Governor
(Juneau Daily Empire)
JUNEAU, Nov. 24 — When
called upon today by an Empire
reporter to explain the gover
nor’s name being listed as an
official of the California Senate
committee on un-American act
ivities printed in the Empire,
Gov. Ernest Gruening said he
couldn’t explain it, and reiterated
that he had never been a mem
ber of the organization.
Reproduced were pages of the
California committee’s investiga
tion of Communist front organiza
tions, including the Garland <
Fund, and lists of men and wom
en said to be officials of the
organizations. These reproduced
pages listed the Daily Worker (a
New York Red newspaper) and
the Young Communist League
among other firms and organiza
tions as alleged beneficiaries of
the Garland Fund.
Reporter: “Were you, to your \
knowledge, an officer or director
of the Garland Fund or any of
its subsidiaries?”
Gov. Gruening: “The Empire
asked me this question on Novem
ber 5, 1951, and I then replied
that I had never been an officer
or director of the Garland Fund,
and had had no connection with
it whatever. This reply was print
ed in the Empire on page 3, No
1
vember 5, 1951, and so’ there is
no particular point in my repeat
ing my statement since the Em
pire already had this information,
but I am glad to do so.”
Reporter: “If yours and others’
names were used without yours
or others’ knowledge, how did
>that come about?”
Gov. Gruening: “The answer is,
‘I do not know.’ It would have
been good and fair journalism to
have made these inquiries before
publication and to have secured
the answers.”
Reporter: “If you gave permis
sion to use your name, what was
your understanding of the pur- ,
pose of the Garland Fund?”
Gov. Gruening: “I never gave
my permission to anybody to use
my name in connection with the
Garland Fund and had no first
hand knowledge of the Fund or
its purpose.”
To other questions concerning
the governor’s alleged connection
with the Garland Fund, Gov.
Gruening’s only replies were that
he had answered them in his t
denial that he had ever been con
nected with the Fund.
