Margaret Truman
Well Received
In First Concert
PITTSBURGH, (/P) — Margaret
Truman, who wants some day to
sing in grand opera, received a
warm reception from the audi
ence. but a chill one from the crit
ics in ther first full-length con
cert Friday night.
Criticism of the 23-year-old so
prano’s voice ranged from a suc
cinct “childish” by Fred Lissfelt
of the Pittsburgh Sun-Telegram to
the “likeable voice but its training
is very faulty,” offered by Ralph
Lewando of the Pittsburgh Press.
But the audience of 4,000 who
filled Syria Mosque to hear the
President’s daughter, launch a 30
I day singing tour obviously loved
her.
They applauded her 11 selec
tions loudly and called her back
for nine curtains. Many, perhaps
seeing in the smiling gracious girl,
a counterpart of their own daugh
ters, whispered audibly:
“She’s very good. And she’s so
much prettier than in her pic
tures.”
The cheetah is the fastest ani
mal in the world over short dis
tances.
Sen. Pepper Says
20 Billion Aid Pro
gram Not Enough
WASHINGTON, (/P)_The Tru
man administration marshaled a
vast array of figures today de
signed to prove to Congress and
the nation that this country can
export the food, fuel and machin
ery western Europe is seeking for
its proposed recovery program.
A report from secretary of the
interior Krug, released by the
White House, stated emphatically
that the United States will be able
to deliver the goods for a $20,000,
000,000 aid program without im
pairing American resources.
Some shortages will result, “but
it is impossible to make a case
that the proposed aid program
will have a serious impact upon
our economy,” Krug said. “From
the standpoint of day-to-day
drain, the export program is just
not consequential.”
Krug asserted, however, that to
assure success of the undertaking3
this country must save grain, re
I tain export controls to make cer
1 tain shipments reach the most
1 needy countries and gear produc
tion and transportation facilities
to a high rate.
On Capital Hill, Republicans
generally adopted a let’s-hear
more attitude, but Senator Pepper
| (D.-Fla.) criticized the report as a
j “nibbling” approach.
' Pepper told reporters he thinks
; the summary makes the “timid”
assumption that only such help
I will be extended to western Eu
rope as will not “inconvenience”
the American people.
OVERHEATED CHIMNEY
CAUSES NO DAMAGE
The fire department was called
out yesterday about noon in an
