Truman Decorates Aide
In Mock Ceremony
(Continued from Page One)
Guatemala.
Vaughan declined to comment
on the congressional investiga
tion of persons allegedly using
influence to obtain government
contracts. He expressed anger
when a reporter asked about the
financing of the vacation trip,
and said each passenger paid his
own fare.
Mock Decoration Told
Newsweek said that when
Vaughan reported for duty last
Monday Mr. Truman, looking
severe, fished a pink-ribboned
package from his desk and or
dered the general front and cen
ter. "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.
May Be Summoned
Senator Hoey (D-N.C.) said to
day there is a possibility that
Vaughan may be asked to testi
fy In the Senate Inquiry.
Hoey is chairman or a benate
expenditures subcommittee which
is completing plans for a pub

U. S. Scientists Linked
With Communist Spies
(Continued From Page One)
Ine the president held at Blair
House last Thursday.
Mr. Truman said he knows who
the man is, but he did not Identify
him.
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

floored.
There sepmed no doubt that
some of the concern which de
veloped In congress had quieted
down.

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

Guardsman Maintain Order
As Negroes Return to Homes
GROVELAND, Fla., July 21.
(IP) Negroes began filtering back
to their homes here today, their
(ears calmed by National Guard
troops In fighting array.
Some loafed on the lone busi
ness street of this tiny lumber
and truck farming town. They
seemed at ease for the first time
since racial violence broke out
last Saturday after the rape of
a while housewife.
Three Negroes were Indicted
for the crime late last night.
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.
The Indictment of the three
Negroes for the rape of Mrs.
Willie Padgett was returned al
most on the stroke of midnight
by a special grand jury convened
at the Lake county seat of
Tavares, 25 miles from here.
Accused of the crime, a capi
tal offense in Florida, were
Charlie Greenlee, Samuel Shep
herd and Walter Irvln, all about
20.
Among the 18 jurors returning
the indictment was a lone Negro,
March Debose of Umatilla,

Wherry said he was "not
averse" to doing that, but he
made no immediate move to rt
vise the language.
Senator Taft said that In his
opinion that, original, language
was broad enough to cover the
atomic bomb.
