make repairs at the track al
though a court already issued an
injunction against construction
at the racing plant. That was at
a time after the war when the
use of scarce building materials
was sharply restricted.
Given "Fine Brushoff"
Vaughan was represented in
the Hunt memo as "remarking
with vehemence, that 'Your
(Hunt's) friend Creedon is a fine
guy,' meaning by his tone, the op
posite." The memo went on to say that
Vaughan told Hunt he had sent
three men to see Creedon "after
arranging the meeting personally
by phone." It said Creedon had
turned them over to a group
"headed by a lawyer named
Mayer" (SIC) and that the group
had been given a "fine brushoff.'

Shulman said that after the
1947 meeting he heard that the
meeting was set up "by some one
In the administration, or in the
Democratic National committee,
or by someone in Congress." He
added
"I knew it was someone con

Europe Arms Cost At
Issue Before Senators

forces of western Europe must
be able to resist any enemy.
'But tnese lorces cannot hold
the lines of collective defense
with their present Inadequate
equipment largely composed of
old and worn out material," he
said.
Joint Plans In Making
Johnson took notice that an
objection has been raised that
American aid can be effective
only if it is provided under in
tegrated plans and a unified or
ganization for the defense of
western Europe.
He said that this already exists
In the western union defense
pact.
unuiea plans, ne said, are be
ing continuously developed by
the five nations in the western
union pact. Johnson said these
five nations England, France,
Belgium, Luxembourg and The
Netherlands are now and must
continue to be the hard core of
any European defense. They are
tne nations, ne said, wnicn, in
the event of a major aggression,
would have to bear the brunt of
the main attack.
In connection with the arms
plan, some senators say they are
confused over this question:
When does a tank become sur
plus? They may write a celling of
$500,000,000 on the amount of
military surplus that can be
shipped abroad, leaders said.
Their confusion arose from a
disclosure by Senator Knowland
(R. Calif.) that military leaders
had told China two months ago
there was no surplus equipment
but now say supplies that orig
inally cost $450,000,000 are avail
able for North Atlantic treaty
signers.
