Ute Indian First
American Soldier
To Enter Berlin
_ I
BERLIN, July 3—(;P)—Veterans
of the Second Armored Hell on
Wheels division of the American
l
Army were deployed through the
suburbs. The first American sol
dier who entered the Russian held
center of Berlin today was a red
skinned hero of the United States
Army. As he jeeped down Unter
den Linden women wept with joy
at the sight of Private First Class
Harvey Natchees, of Ute Indian
Reservation, who wears the silver
star, the bronze star, purple heart,
and oak leaf cluster.
He is the first American soldier
to enter the center of the capital.
The main force of the division de
ployed through suburban Zhlen
dorf to the south. An Exchange
Telegraph dispatch from London
said the British occupation forces
of about fifteen thousand were ex
pected in the main part of the city
tonight, while the main British
force will arrive tomorrow.
After rounding the shell scarred
Victory monument in the Tiergar
ten and taking a smart salute
from a Red Army woman traffic
cop, and starting for the remains
of the Kaiser’s palace a lot hap
pened to Natchees in a few mfn
utes. A Berliner bicyclist asked
him to look up her brother Pri
vate William Schwellbeck, some
where with the American forces
in France. Margate Titze, who said
she was born in Sheepshead Bay,
New York, pleaded for a ride to
Potsdam.
James Byrnes
Sworn In As
Secy. Of State
WASHINGTON, July 3—</P)—
James Byrnes was sworn in as
Secretary of State as President
Truman and highest officials of
the government looked on as the
oath was administered to the man
who will succeed him to the Pres
idency under present statutes,
should President Truman be un
able to complete his term.
After Byrnes was sworn in by
Chief Justice Whaley of the Court
of Claims in a brief ceremony in
the sunswept Whitehouse terrace,
he said “I enter upon my duties
as Secretary of State deeply con
scious of the great and grave re
sponsibilities of that office.
The change of the Secretaryship
of State at this time involves no
change in the basic principles of
our foreign policy.”
Comptroller of Currency
Calls For Bank Statements
WASHINGTON, July 3—(A3)—
The comptroller of the currency
has issued a call for a statement
of condition to all national banks
as of the close of business June
thirtieth.
THE FACTS
When meat rationing first came
in, a farmer reported to his local
board that he had several hundred
pounds of beef in cold storage. A
few days later he received an offi
cial note demanding why he had
so much on hand.
His reply was terse: "It was
necessary to kill the whole steer
at one time.”
