Probers At Hearing (Continued From Page One) vice of counsel on the ground that any answer might tend to incriminate me. He gave the same answer when Hoev asked If he had not testi fied in private session that he pad no otner income in iin-i, 1916, and 1947 beyond certain sums which had been mentioned. Maragon's lawyer, Myron G. Ehrlich, broke in to say he had advhied his client to refuse to answer certain questions. Ehrlich also had a long pre pared statement for the commit tee. In this, he contended that "It appears thrre have been extract ed from this wi'ness possible self incriminatory stalments by me thods" in violation of Maragon's constitutional rights. His refer ence was to the July 28 session. Ehrlich qustloned, too, the right of the committee to ask Maragon about his personal affairs and to demand Maragon's personal pap ers. He protested that committee counsel had, refused to return pajx-rs that Maragon turned over to the committee. The accountant's story of Mar agon's bank accounts came Imme diately before Maragon was called. Carmine S .Bolllno, account ant employed by the committee, testified, among other things, that it appeared that Maragon was receiving $1,000 a month pay from the Albert Vcrley Perfume Co., Chicago, at the same time he was employed in 1945 as a member of the American mission to Greece. Maragon's government pay was at the rate of $5,600 a year. After the fruitless round with Maragon, the committee recessed until Tuesday. At that time it expects to hear Vaughan. Sticks to Refusals Among other things, Maragon declined to say: Whether he ever did any busi ness for the Albert Vcrley com pany when he wa In Italy for the state department. Whether he ever did any busi ness for the Verley company when he was In Paris. Whether he ever received wages from the Verley company and the government for the same period of employment. Whether he ever drew any sal ary In connection with the Tan lornn race track in California. There has been testimony that Vaughan and Maragon intervened with government agencies to help the Tanforan track get scarce building materials during the shortage after the war. Senator McCarthy (R.-Wls.l as Senator McCarthy i R. - Wis. I asked Maragon if he had ever "worked for Frankle Costello." Frank Costello Is a reputed New York and underworld leader.

Senate Ignored As House Begins Vacation (Continued from Page One) three week day at any time. That can be done only by Joint resolution. In the 25 days between now and the end of the House recess, congressional leaders hope the ruffled relations between the '.wo branches will be healed. The Senate's refusal to permit an outright House recess was un precedented. It irritated House members who felt they were en titled to a holiday because thev had worked daily earlier this year while the Senate marked time. Speaker Sam Rayburn iold newsmen It was the first time In history such a thing had hap pened. He said the Senate action was contrary to the traditional "comity" between the two cham. bers. House leaders said privately they could not have bowed to the Senate's will without appearine to concede that the Senate may dictate House action. They said tne House had to adlourn, one way or the other, to save face. Truman Evasive On 1952 Election Plans (Continued From Page One) coming an ambassador five years irom now. Ueportlne this. In one of his off-the-cuff talks, Mr. Truman said he couldn't promise anything that far away "because that is a year or two beyond the time when my term will expire." rteporters pounced upon the re mark at a subsequent news con ference. It sounded, thev told him, like he would not be a can didate In 1952. That, said the President, was the implication he intended. Won't Be Nailed Down So they tried to nail him down.

And. evidently enjoying him. self, he added he was not in the position Calvin Coolidge was In IHZl when he said: i do not choose to run." One of Mr. Truman's oldest and most intimate friends sum med it up this way: "I frankly believe that the President does not Intend to run again. At the same time, I can conceive of a situation in which he might run. And, my honest opinion, is that he doesn't know himself at this time. For high-speed logging, use s McCulloch.
