Observers Wondering When Truman Plans To Answer Critics By Joseph A. Fox Star Staff Correspondent KEY WEST, Fla., Mar. 13.—The big unanswered question as Presi dent Truman pursues his work and-play visit here is when and how he will tee off on his oppo sition—or whether he will. The Republican National Com mittee has logged the absences of Mr. Truman from Washington this year with a what-do-you think-of-that air, although there is nothing new in the fact that Presidents customarily seek a breakaway from the confines of the White House when they think the time is opportune. President Taft, for example, hardly could have been called an immobile occupant of the White House— at least to the extent that his travels were concerned. So what does the President think of this line of attack? Then comes the “third term” proposition. Another “Ouster” Move Seen. If signs can be read aright from a distance, another “Ditch Tru man” move akin to that of early 1948 already is in the making. An observer from afar, who must base conclusions on what he sees in the papers, finally figures out that the so-called liberals have decided that they can’t make it with Supreme Court Justice Wil liam O. Douglas in 1952, and are ready to settle for Senator Doug las of Illinois as the Democratic standard-bearer. This might be unfair to the Illinois Douglas—both of them, in fact—but the implication is there in all the verbal pulling and haul ing, and it is no doubt being noted duly by the Truman Democrats, who include the top figures of the Democratic National Commit tee and assorted job holders. The President’s views on this situation would be illuminating. Then comes the RFC "busi ness.” Whether he likes it or not, the President has been put in the po sition of being an advocate of key figures on the inquiry who have not looked too good. Press Summoned Thursday. A repititious succession of “no comments” to queries about the progress of the Senate inquiry has THEY DIDN’T GET AWAY WITH IT—Lima, Ohio.—This is as far as some yeggs got yesterday with the Hepler's Supermarket safe. They backed the auto to the curb and loaded the 1,000 pound safe into its trunk. But auto and safe (unopened) still were there when dawn came. The car’s rear bumper had become locked over the curb. Harold Moseley, store owner, said the safe contained more than $2,000. Six man were required to carry it back into the store. —AP Wirephoto. not enhanced the Presidential stature—but that has been the daily diet fed to the press. Mr. Truman is going to have an opportunity to answer some of these questions Thursday, when he has summoned a news con ference. No one expects him to give word on the “third term.” But there are other points he can clear up. There has been some thought that sometime late in the year President Truman may go round the country looking over defense plants and incidentally talking issues to the people. Detroit would like to have him late in July, when the founding of the city will be observed. Other spots no doubt would be glad- to round out a speaking itinerary. Mr. Truman has not taken an ex tended trip since he went West ward last May. That Mr. Truman should give the people a first-hand account of w'hat is going on is inescapable, and this is without consideration of his own political fortunes. Using editorial pages as an in dex, the people are not happy, but in the words of an old Westerner, who sat in a tourist hotel today talking about this and that: "The Republicans didn't do so good either—remember Hoover?” Biddle (Continued From First Page.) nations already have liaison of ficers in SHAPE and Portugal is to send such an officer soon. Lux embourg is represented by Bel gium and Iceland has no military system. In addition to a successful eareer as both soldier and diplo mat. Col. Biddle also has en gaged in the shipping business, was in the mining business in South Africa, once was an inter- j national tournament tennis playeri and in 1936 was assistant secre tary of the Democratic National Convention in-Philadelphia. He also surveyed, for the Fed eral Bureau of Investigation, the police systems of several European countries. Col. Biddle entered the diplo matic sen-ice in 1935 as Minister to Norway, and two years later was named Ambassador to Poland. When that country was invaded by Hitler’s Germany, he accom panied the Polish government to several emergency capitals. He also was Deputy Ambassador to the French government in 1940. Col. Biddle saw' military service In Europe in World War I and was recommissioned in 1944. He held a variety of military-diplo matic posts in Europe.

AVE., ME. 0383 \ 13 * West Reported Agreed On Reply to Russia's New Big 4 Agenda By the Associated Press PARIS, Mar. 13. — Western power delegates were reported agreed today on their answer to new proposals for the Big Pour conference agenda launched yes terday by Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. Mr. Gromyko’s “concession” to meet the West “half way.” as he put it, reworded one item on his proposed list of topics for a for eign ministers’ conference—the item concerning a peace treaty with Germany. Delegations from the United States, Britain and France met for several hours late last night and discussed Mr. Gromyko’s proposal at length. They will give the Russian their answer at today’s meeting. The East and West actually are not very far apart on the treaty issue, but they remain sharply divided on other agenda points. Hurried Meeting Held. British and French deputies held a hurried meeting after re ceiving Mr. Gromyko's proposal and stayed in session until mid night. The British relayed the proposal to London and received a reply this morning, after which they met with the American dele gation. From this, it was learned, came the Western plan of action—not to reject Mr. Gromyko’s proposal outright, but to offer still another Western formula for compromise. “We are united,” a Western spokesman said, “in trying to get a full list of subject which the four Foreign Ministers can dis cuss in trying to ease world tensions.” The West was expected to sug gest that the question of German disarmament might be brought in under the German peace treaty item on which Russia and the Westerners seem near agreement. But the question of rearming Ger many apparently would not be in troduced in any way which might block Western Germany’s partici pation in a European army. Rus sia, on the other hand, insists Western Germany must not raise military units for Western pur poses. wants to talk About Germany. A British official said that ac tually Mr. Gromyko is growing “more and more immovable” in his opposition to the Westerners’ stand on what they consider the main point of any conference— that tc improve East-West rela tions the foreign ministers must get down to causes and see why things are tense. The Russians say they want to get down to cases instead of causes. They want to talk about Germany mostly, and specifically about the disarming of Germany and how to see that she stays dis armed. They also want to talk about reducing armaments all around. The Western deputies say the Russians have no right to put on record that the ministers should discuss disarmament and the dis arming of Germany. They con tend the foreign ministers can go over those subjects if they like, but the subject headings should be neutral—level of armaments” and “preparation of German treaty.” Otherwise, says the West, the deputies meeting here would be' prejudging decisions their bosses ought to make. Dorothy Lamour's Son Has Spinal Meningitis By the Associated Press HOLLYWOOD, Mar. 13.—Doro thy Lamour returned from a movie location in Florida today to learn that one of ther two sons, Ridgely, 5, is suffering from spinal menin gitis. The actress, wife of William Ross Howard, advertising execu tive, flew back here with the sick youngster, who was taken to Chil dren’s Hospital for the diagnosis. He received a transfusion. Miss Lamour has been working on a film at Sarasota. Mr. How ard and their sons, including Tom my, 1, were with her. Work on the picture is finished. Bomb (Continued From First Page.) plastic, its type not identified, but filled with the fairly heavy metal barium. The purpose of this shell he said was to protect the girdle of detonators from radio-active rays coming from deep inside this bomb. The second shell, inward, was made of plutonium, the atomic bomb explosive. Inside it was a third shell, of beryllium. This in ner shell, said Greenglass, was to supply the neutrons to trigger off the plutonium explosion. Unex plained is the fact that beryllium does not emit neutrons unless ex pose dto radium. How radium might be introduced to this trig ger was not explained. The whole thing, the spy said, was dropped by parachute. That is not true of the actual A-bombs, but is possible. Barometic pres sure set the mechanism to work at a previously selected altitude. The barometric pressure feature is known to be one of the ways in which it is possible to detonate an A-bomb at the desired height. The damaging secret is the girdle of detonators. The tip-off to their importance is their de scription by Greenglass, both in sketches and by name, as flat lenses. Lenses for explosives. That is, a mechanism which chan nels the direction of an explosive. The technical word for this is im plosion and that word was used at the trial. An engineer could tell from the drawings of the lenses how to fire an A-bomb. The reporters were not shown these drawings. But a permissible guess is that they work like the bazooka's pene trating fire. Bazookas are invert ed V-shaped little guns, and the interior of the V is fiat. The powder packed inside the V is filled with tiny fragments—any thing will do, and in industry powdered glass is used. The ex plosion’s force is channeled by the V-lens so that out of the wide open end of the V a jet drives forth 10 times faster than any big gun can fire a shell or any rifle a bullet. What is fired by the lenses,' Greenglass' story did not say, or if it did, that was not put in evi dence. One substance could be fragmented or powdered pluto nium. This plutonium powder would drive faster than any gun could send it onto the sphere of plutonium at the center, increas ing the mass of the center to the point where it would explode.

Hall. Prop. Quiz of RFC Loan Aide Opens Jury Probe A Federal grand jury settled down today for a reportedly long look into testimony and evidence developed at a Senate subcom mittee inquiry into questionable influences on Reconstruction Fi nance Corp. lending activities and policies. While the jury was holding its first meeting yesterday, Assistant Attorney General James M. Mc Inerney, in charge of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, sat in on a subcommittee session at the Senate Office Building. His only comment was that the grand jury investigation might go on for some time. RFC Aide Testifies. Sole witness yesterday was Stuart Bingham, executive as sistant in the RFC Loans Division. He was to continue testifying when the jury reconvened at 1:30 p.m. today. Mr. Bingham said he told the jurors only about the general methods of processing loan appli cations. He emphasized he touched on no specific instances, such as those aired by the Senate Banking subcommittee. The witness told reporters he has been with RFC since 1933, coming to the Washington offjce in 1947. James P. O’Brien, attorney in charge of the Fraud Section of the Justice Department Criminal Divi sion, indicated the grand jun may be preoccupied with the “groundwork” of its investigation for the next three or four days. Mr. O’Brien said subpoenas have been prepared for issuance, but he declined to say against whom the summonses will be issued Focus on Perjury Possibility. Mr. O’Brien, with Attorney Wil liam Delaney, also of Justice, and Assistant United States Attorney John W. Fihelly are handling the probe. Preliminary caurt papers filed yesterday show the investigation | will focus on possible charges of perjury committed by certain wit nesses before the Fulbright sub committee; conspiracy to defraud the United States or one of its agencies, ostensibly RFC, or the offense of willfully falsifying or ‘ covering up” a material fact by “trick, scheme or device” in any matter within the jurisdiction of a United States agency. RFC (Continued From First Page.) plicated transaction in buying and selling steel caused Senator Capehart to describe it as ‘‘a black market or gray market deal.” He asserted “it was simply a pay-off to somebody.” Despite Mr. Rosenbaum’s de nials, Senator Capehart exploded: “Don’t try to fool me. That steel wound up selling for $200 or $300 a ton. I am getting sick and tired of steel companies pulling off tricks like that. Why did Atlantic Basin want 2,500 tons of steel when it doesn’t deal in steel? How was it able to get steel when plants all around the country are clamoring for steel they need and find it in such tight supply since the Korean war?” News to Dudley.. Robert W. Dudley, one of Mr. Rosenbaum’s law partners and also the brother-in-law of Mr. Casey, informed the subcommittee he knew nothing of the steel deal, or Mr. Rosenbaum’s interest in Atlantic Basin. “There are a lot of things I’ve learned for the first time since this committee started to investi gate.” he said. Fulbright Answers Protest. When he protested that the subcommittee should do every thing possible “to preserve the dignity of the relationship be tween lawyers and clients,” Sena tor Fulbright replied: “We want to be fair in every way, but you must remember that we are not making charges c reproaches, except insofar as w'e find willingness of the RFC management to respond to out side pressures. You must remem ber that, at these hearings, we represent the public just as you represent clients.” Mr. Dudley testified mainly about his arrangement with Mr. Rosenbaum and Mr. Casey to pay a $15,000 a year salary to Hubert B. Steele, a former RFC examiner.: Mr. Steele accepted that employ-* ment a month after the RFC ap proved a final loan to Central Iron & Steel in September, 1949, on recommendation of Mr. Steele, j Mr. Steele, as well as Mr. Dudley, Mr. Rosenbaum and RFC Director William E. Willett, de fended that employment. Mr. Steele explained he had planned for some time to leave RFC. He declared that, until recently, -he did not know Mr. Casey was pay ing part of his salary. The former RFC examiner also testified that his daughter Vir ginia was employed by Mr. Young for a short time after her gradu ation from college in 1949, and later by Mr. Rosenbaum’s law firm here and in New York City. She no longer works for the firm, he said. Substituted Steele. Mr. Willett testified he substi tuted Mr. Steele as examiner of the Central Iron & Steel applica tion after other examiners rec ommended disapproval. Company officials had complained that other examiners were not versed in steel and steel company management, he explained. The subcommittee disclosed that Mr. Rosenbaum’s office files con tained copies of telegrams sup posedly sent by the Phoenixville <Pa.) Chamber of Commerce to Pennsylvania’s two Senators urg ing them to “contact Ed Willett" about the Central loan. Although Mr. Rosenbaum, Mr. Casey and Mr. Dudley said they, did not ask the chamber of com merce to send the telegrams, Senator Fulbright observed “it is strange” that copies were found in Mr. Rosenbaum’s office. “This seems to be another illus tration why many letters are writ ten by Congressmen to RFC,” he commented. “They are engineered by people who have an interest: in seeing loans granted.” Louis Simpson, Real Estate Man, Dies of Auto Injuries Louis R. Simpson, 68, Arlington real estate man, died last night at Arlington Hospital as a result of injuries suffered in an auto accident Saturday night. Mr. Simpson was driving his car when it struck a parked tractor trailer at Lee highway and Old Dominion drive. Mr. Simpson’s real estate office was at 3200 Wilson boulevard and he lived at 1735 North Seventeenth street. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Mary Simpson, and I a son James. i THE SERVICE OF THE LIGHTED CROSS Augustana Lutheran Church V St. A New Hampshire Ave. N W Clarence T. Nelson.

S. by Guatemala By the Associated Press GUATEMALA CITY, Guate mala, Mar. 13. — Guatemala is angry at the manner in which the United States arranged for representation at the forthcoming inauguration of President-elect Jacobo Arbenz Guzman, the For eign Office made clear yesterday. The inauguration is scheduled for Thursday, and 30 delegations from foreign countries already have arrived here, including the United States representative. Am bassador to Nicaragua C. M. Way nick. Foreign office officials said the United States should have sent its newly appointed Ambassador, Rudolf E. Schoenfeld, and not Ambassador Waynick. They said Mr. Waynick could not even ob tain a visa, because Guatemala has no diplomatic relations with Nicaragua. He had to pass through Guatelmalan customs with the personal identification of the United States charge d’affaires here, the Officials said. The officials complained that the United States does not want Mr. Schoenfeld to reach Guate mala before the departure from office of the government of President Juan Jose Arevalo. Mr. Arbenz won a heavy majority in elections last November, pledging himself to continue the social reform program of Mr. Arevalo, who supported him. President Truman nominated Mr. Schoenfeld to the Guatemala post March 2 and the Senate con firmed him yesterday. Draft Cold, Pay Low, So Toronto Models Join AFL Union By the Associated Press TORONTO.
