Feature Editor, News-Review
Observance of a "world peace day" on the anniversary each
year of the dropping of the first atomic bomb on Japan is the dream
of the people of Hiroshima.
In that bomb-shattered city is a beautiful castle, largely ruined
by war, which the Japanese pray may be converted from a mili

To go through the atomic bomb
explosion, he said, is an exper

prehension. The people of Hiro

WASHINGTON. Julv 9. UP)
Pr sident Trunin's surprise
choice of Attorney General Tom
Clark for the supreme court and
Senator J. Howard McGrath for
attorney general gained general
approval of senators today.
Although the president told his
news conference yesterday that
Clark and McGath hadn't finally
agreed to the shift, there seemed
little doubt the two will announce
their formal acceptance next

Clark, 49-year-old Texas law

vacant by the death of Associate
Justice Frank Murphy.
Moving into Clark's place as the
nation's chief legal watchdog
would be McGrath, 45-year-old
chairman of the democratic na

general and former governor of
Rhode Island.
If arrangements can be made
this week-end for appointment of
his senate successor, McGrath is
expected to agree to accept the
cabinet post.

confirmed, McGrath will resign

would leave the post open for Wil

with at least 27 fatalities in east

in the hot and humid weather
was in sight for the area.
But some relief came to parts
of the midwest A mass of fresh
Canadian cool air moving south
eastward brought lower tempera

The outlook for further move

bureau forecasters said. They
promised another day of hot and
sticky weather for most of the
eastern and southern sections of

Clark. McGrath
Well Trained In
Law Experience
WASHINGTON. July 29 UPy
Attorney General Tom Clark is
no stranger to the Supreme court
building.
President Truman's choice to
succeed the late rank Murphy
to the high tribunal has in the
past argued cases before the
same court as chief of the ustice
department's criminal division
a post he took In 193.
Previously Clark had held var
ious government positions since
1937, when he left private prac
tice in his home state of Texas
to become a special attorney for
the department's bureau of war
risk litigation.
The son and grandson of law
yers. Clark received his own law
degree in 1922 from the Univer
sity of Texas. He did his first
work as a government lawyer
five years later, as civil district
attorney for Dallas county. He
was admitted to practice before
the United States Supreme court
in 1932.
Clark, 49 years old, has been
Attorney General since July 1.
1945. just a few months after Mr.
Truman took office. His wife, the
former Mary Ramsey, was the
daughter of a Justice on the Tex
as Supreme court.
McGrath Experienced
The man named to take Clark's
place as Attorney General, Dem
ocratic Senator J. Howard Mo
Grath of Rhode Island, also has
been a government lawyer dur
ing his career.
McGrath resigned as United
States District Attorney for
Rhode Island in 1940 after hold
ing that Job for six years to run
for eovernor of the state.
He was elected, served three
termsthen quit to hecome a gov
ernment lawyer again this time
as solicitor general or tne unneo
States. He held that post until
1946, when he was elected to the
Senate.
McGrath capped a long career
as a Democratic party official
when he became chairman of the
party's national committee late
in 1947. In that Job, he was cred
ited with much of the responsi
bility for Mr. Truman's surprise
election victory last year.
The senator is 45 years old.

On Frozen Creek
Activity on the part of the
Douglas Forest Protective asso

Dispatcher U. F. McLaughlin.
The fire was declared under

was cut yesterday.
A fire in the Glendale district
was reported by plane yesterday
but McLaughlin said when fire
crews arrived, they found a mill
crew had the blaze under control.
However, more fire activity is
slated for the Douglas Fire patrol

Eye Glasses Devised
Far Cross-Eyed People
SOUTHBRIDGE, Mass., July
29. (JP) The American Optical
company today announced eye
glasses for cross-eyed people. It
is easier to see through one lens

The announcement says doc
tors prescribe unequal glasses of
this sort when cross-eyed people
from the habit of using only one
eye for seeing. Gradually the
non-working eye loses Its ability
to see details.
The new spectacles blur the
glass over the good eye. That eye
can still see through the blurred
glass, but has to work harder.
The eye that has been out of
training thereupon goes to work

power.

WASHINGTON. Julv 29 P
The secret testimony of a fast,
talking White House visitor quiz

The witness who gave the
sworn testimony is John Mara

now, he says, calls many top gov-1
ernment officials and Congress
members by their first names.
He listed President Truman's
military aide, MaJ. Gen. Harry

friends.
Mara eon late yesterday spent
more than an hour behind closed
doors with senators Investigat

'We got some plenty hot stuff
from Maragon. It was interest

familiar with what went on at
the hush-hush session. Maragon
himself said that "honest, there
Is nothing in it yet." He added:
'There may be in a couple of
weeks."
Prodded By Charge
At first Maragon flatly denied
that he had been before the Sen

committee. An hour and a half
later he acknowledged that he
had testified. He dictated this
statement to reporters at the cap

No More U. S. Troops To
Be Sent Under Aid flan.
Assurance To Congress
WASHINGTON. July 29 UP
Secretary of Defense Johnson
told Congress today that U. S.
arms aid for friendly nations
may have to be given for four
or five years, at diminishing an
nual coats.
He made the estimate which
he emphasized was only a per
sonal one before the House for
eign affairs committee. He set
the pitch before that group for a
chorus of backing from the mili
tary high command for President
Truman's request for a one-year
$1,450,000,000 program to heln
European nations arm them
selves. Johnson emphasized that "no
man can give you an answer"
when asked by Rep. Mansfield
(D-Mont.) for an estimate of the
overall cost and duration of the
proposed program, not projected
on a one-year basis up to June
30, 1950.
"Personally." he said in meas
ured words, "I think that you're
into a program that may run
four or five years."
The costs should decrease each
year, he said, as the nations re
ceiving help Improve their own
ability to help themselves.
Scheduled to follow Johnson on
the stand were Gen. Omar N.
Bradley, army chief of staff, and
others ofthe high command. That
group, maklne ud the tolnt rhlr
of staff, was ready for a quick
takeoff for Europe this after,
noon after giving the committee
their views. The Joint chiefs are
going abroad to discuss the arms
program and general defense
plans with European military
chiefs.
No More Troops Slated
Johnson in his testimony rein
forced the administration's as
surance that no additional Ameri
can troops will be sent to Europe
as part of the arms aid program.
Setting forth the nationaf mili
tary establishment's views on the,
legislation, Johnson said he want- -ed
to make one point "absolutely
clear." . . . .
"That Is," he said, "that under
this program no United States
troops will be sent abroad to em
ploy the equipment we will pro
vide. "This military assistance pro-.
