"In recognition of your cour age and Intrepidity over and be yond the call of duty," Newsweek hereby decorate you with the medal operation union station." The President then pinned the medal on Vaughan's uniform. It consisted of a bar inscribed "operation union station, July 6, 194S), Ma, uen. Harry ri. vaugn an, U.S.A., From President Har ry S. Truman." Suspended from the bar was a disc Dearing a picture of a desolate stretch of railroad tracks. Newsweek said Vaughan was relieved to get off so easily.

The Blair House conference. bringing together high govern ment and congressional leaders, was the first of two major con ferences which have been held on i.tomic matters. The second was a meeting at the capitol yesterday, caller! by the Senate-House Atomic Energy committee. The RpponH mpptinff anneared to have eased misgivings oi some lawmakers that the. president might act on his own to give Brit ain some A-bomb secrets. They said, after another top level, hush-hush atomic confer ence yesterday, that they would not now press for a move to keep the president from acting by ex ecutive order In this field. No Dark Secrets Mr. Truman told reporters the subject of the Blair House meet ing was Important, as are all sub jects on which he calls confer ences. - But he said that newspaper ac counts were exaggerated there were no deep dark secrets at the meeting. As to the news "leaks" about the meeting, Mr. Trumnn snld with warmth in his voice that It was the first occasion on which any persons Invited to a White House meeting had leaked to the press. He did not like It. he added. Asked If he knew who It was that leaked, he said: "Yes, he did. He was asked If that person would attend a ' second White House conference. Mr. Truman said there had been no second conference. He would not comment further. Concluding his remarks, he asked (he newspaper men to be natient until all (he rumors are floored.

Atomb Bomb At Issue As Pact Vote Nears (Continued From Page One) the comment that "Senator Wher ry has a lot of ungrounded fears about the treaty which I'm not interested In." Wherry had raised questions yesterday about the A-bomb and the treaty. At that time, Senator McMahon (D-Conn) chairman of the Stnate-IIouse atomic energy com mittee said the treaty carried no obligation to share atomic se ci Ha. He said the question should be considered when the arm-for-Europe program is taken up by Congress. When the Senate convened to day, Wherry brought, the matter ud again. "I ask the question," Wherry said, "are we to share the atomic bomb, its secrets, and the know how? Will Ihey (the other pact mnmhers) have the right to them? Is there a moral or legal commitment to do that very thing?" Reservation urged Wherry pleaded that the Senate adoDt a reservation he and Sen ators Taft (R-Ohio) and Watklns (R-Utah) are sponsoring. It would say that the treaty does not com mit the United States to give mili tary aid to pact nations. By adopting it, wnerry De clared, "the door is tightly, firm ly closed against any moral or legal obligations upon the United States to furnish the atomic bomb or any of the materials or know how in the making of It." . The adminlstralion plans to submit a $1,450,000,000 arms aid program to Congress later. The program Is generally ex pected to go up soon after the treaty Is ratified perhaps tomor row. The Senate vote on the treaty is to come late today. Would Recall MacArthur In his senate speech, Wherry demanded also that President Tru man recall Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur from Japan. ' "The administration Is long overdue In bringing General Mac Arthur back home so that he might appear before Congress and give Congress and the Ameri can people his advice and Judg ment on policies affecting the Pa cific," Wherry said. "Certainly the American people should have a first-hand report on his accom plishments in Japan." Wherry said that if his reser vation is rejected, he will vote against ratification of the. treaty. Senator Donnell (R-Mo) sug gested that Wherry revise his reservation to say specifically that the United Stales would be under no moral or legal obligation to furnish atomic bombs or infor mation about it to the other 11 It's full of freshness Buy it, try it You betcha . . . here ore REAL VALUES in mirrors.

Troops, 300 strong, lolled be side ,50-caliber machine guns and weapon carriers. Not far away, two guard planes were ready to take to the air if needed. Some townsfolk , hoped the guard would remain over the weekend, fearing another out break If they left. The guardsmen kept a weather eye out for trouble after noting a sudden Influx of cars from Alabama and Georgia. One man was nabbed by guards men late last night and a pistol confiscated after he had been observed cruising near a Negro settlement at nearby Clermont.' He was released.
