Sen. \\ berry Says
Seey. Aelieson Is
-Unfit For Job”
WASHINGTON, (/P) — A new
Republican drive against Secre
tary of State Achcson appeared to
be developing Saturday behind
the scenes of the communist hunt
inspired by Senator McCarthy <R.
Wisd.
Senator Wherry of Nebraska,
the GOP floor leader, brought the
attack into the open Friday with
criticism of what he called Ache
son’s “bungling” in the Gubitchev
spy case.
Wherry said the secretary dem
on strated “unfitness” for his job
by his offer to let Valentin A. Gu
•bitchev — convicted with Judith
Coplon of espionage conspiracy—
escape a 15-year prison term if he
leaves this country.
The Senator said Ach cson
should have let the law take its
course, adding that Russian prop
agandists already are calling the
move a sign of weakness.
Rep. Fellows (R.-Me.- made a
similar statement in the House.
Although only five other Re
publicans joined Wherry in voting
against Senate confirmation of
Achesan on Jan. 18, 1949, there
were indications that the Nebras
kan’s attack had the backing of a
far larger number of his party
members who would like to see
the secretary of state dumped
overboard.

A Baby A Day
For Three Days
Keep Doe Busy
JONESVILLE, La. (>P)—A baby
a day for three consecutive days
—that’s the way the 36-year-old
wife of a fisherman gave birth to
triplets.
Watching the newcomers gurgle
milk from their bottles today, Dr.
N. G. Nasif, who delivered the
babies over the three-day period
said, “I’ve never heard or read
of such a case before.”
(In Chicago, the American Med
ical Association said it has no rec
ord of any previous triple birth
over a three-day period*.
%
The tired worn-looking mother,
Mrs. Lester Hardic propped her
self up on an elbow and smiled at
her new son and two daughters.
The triplet's birth was an or
deal for the entire town. First of
all Hardie just narrowly beat the
stork as he plied full throttle to
his motorboat bringing Mrs. Har
die to Dr. Nasif’s clinic from their!
houseboat home.
Thirty minutes after their ar
rival at the clinic, 5-pound Jodie
Lee, the boy was born. That was
8 a.m., March 7.
At 9 a.m. the next day 6-pound
Julia Fae arrived.
And about 1 a.m. yesterday 7
pound Judy Mae was born.
Erma Wainner of the Juneau of
fice of the Territorial Public Wei-1
fare, departed yesterday, having I
assisted in the opening of the Sec
ond Division office here.

Mrs. Jones and her small son
were gazing anxiously at air
planes passing overhead.
“It’s all right,” said their next
door neighbor, Mrs. Smith. They
are ours.”
Next day Mrs. Jones was out
with the boy, when another batch
of planes flew past.
‘‘It’s all right, mom,” exclaimed
the boy. ‘‘You needn’s worry.
They’re Mrs. Smith’s.”

Banker Charged
In Embezzlement
BRANSON, Mo. (£*)—Banker,
churchman and civic worker
Bethel W. Eiserman, 52, faced
a charge Saturday of embezzling
funds from this little Ozark resort
community’s only bank.
FBI agent L. V. Boardman of
Kansas City said Eiserman, presi
dent of the Security Bank of
Branson, has admitted irregulari
ties totalling -82,000 in the bank’s
accounts over a six-year period.
“We don’t know yet what has
become of the money,” Boardman
said. “The investigation still is go
ing on.”
Buford Madrey, vice-president
of the bank, said its board of di
rectors feels sure that “not a
penny of the money went for Ei
serman’s own use. He didn’t
smoke, drink of carouse around.”

GOP Fries To
Slash Excise 'Faxes
WASHINGTON, (/!>), The House
Ways and Means Committee re
jected today a new Republican
effort to ram through a “quickie”
bill slashing excise taxes immedi
ately by about $1,000,000,000.
The rigid party line vote was 15
to 10.
The Democrats, however, gave
some ground, trying at the same
time to head off a veto if excise
cutting goes beyond the limits set
by President Truman. They
pressed through the committee,
on a similar party vote, a resolu
tion saying the committee will:
1. Approve excise slashes, per
haps far beyond the $655,000,000
the President has requested
Some members privately are es
timating the excise cut will be
around $1,000,000,000.
2. Try to replace the lost rev
enue “by closing loopholes in ex
itsing tax laws, by strict enforce
ment against law evaders, and, i:
necessary, such other tax chang
es as may be deemed feasible.”
