SeptJ. 4-V Senate five percenter Investig ators are badly split among them selves7 over the future course of the inquiry. i ' I -.The breach, it was apparent to- tay, is widening insteadj of heal ing. 11 is extending miu pie ques tion of what witnesses to pall when hearings resume. And caught right in the middle is Maj. Gert Harry H, jVaughan, aide to President Truman with one side trying to haul him to the witness stand for another grilling. But the struggle goes deeper than the witness list ' ! At the heart of the conflict is a strong - and perhaps irrecon tillable difference of opinion as to the manner in Which con gressional investigations should be conducted. -Chairman Hoey (D-NC) of the senate investigations committee represents one school of thought; two outspoken republican members of his group, Senators Mundt (SD) and McCarthy (Wis), the other. In brief, Hoey, who is supported by the committee's general counsel, William P. Rogers, feels that the committee "staff should process all leads and evidence before a wit-i ness is confronted with it procedure, Hoey feels,. leads to a more orderly inquiry and serves to keep the investigation within its proper boundaries, Mundt, who was schooled in the house un-American activities com mittee's broader methods, together with McCarthy, don't want the committee to operate solely within any such ' self-amposed limits. ' They feel .it is proper to pep Der a witness with all sorts of questions and then follow up la ter anv leads which might have been developed. : Both introduced this procedure during, phase one of. the hearings which ended last week. And both drew sharp pebukes from Hoey several times during their inter rogations of witnesses. !A former U. S. assistant district attorney during World War I in North Carolina, Hoey is expected to hold a tight check-rein over what he considers proper evidence to be considered publicly when the hearing resumes, probably next month.- In any showdown, he is virtually assured the full support "of the three other " democratic members of the committee, -t Senators O Conor (MD), Eastland (Miss) and Robertson' (Va). : McCarthy, a former Wisconsin judge, and Mundt, a former school teacher, probably would get the support of Senator Smith in any partisan scrap, although the re publican Maine senator has not al ways agreed with her colleagues. Forcetl Ventilalion Plan Not Choice Of Portland Family PORTLAND. Sept 4 -iff?)- The Eldridges spent last night at a neighbor's home. They left all the w indows of their own house wide open but locked the doors. It was like locking the barn door" after the horse was stolen, however. Earlier last evening, they had left a door open. Going to bed they heard a noise. On investi gating they found a skunk had 'made itself at home. "In the ensuing melee," wrote Officer R. D. Mobley. "the skunk got in a couple of shots of his 4 own before being trapped. That was when the Eldridges moved in with the neighbors. 4 Iowa Men Die In Plane Crash WEST LIBERTY, la., Sept 4 FVFour men were killed today in the crash at private plane on a farm near here.

Data on InsuranoeDividends For Ex-GIs Told by Bureau t Anticipating a lot of questions before and after national service life insurance dividend checks begin arriving next year, the Oregon department of .veterans affairs this week issued a resume of pertinent facts concerning the recently iannouncetT dividend. Application forms for the dividends were made available begin ning August 29. In addition to general instruction contained on the application blanks the department of veterans affairs added these points:' j 1. The fact that an individual's insurance was recently converted does not necessarily mean a j big ger dividend check. That portion of a permanent policy premium which goes toward covering the death ri.-k of the insured . is the only portion, on which dividends are being paid. 2. The $2,800,000,000 of surplus funds, accumulated because; the mortality tables proved too high. will be apportioned not on the basis of the numoer of policies issued. Factors on which each in dividual policy holder-collects in clude the number of months each policy-was In force, age of policy holder at lime of issue, type of policy and the number of death claiiis in each particular age and policy group. , y 3. The mortality table forjfcach age group is probably the factor which will result in confusion among veterans whose dividend payments will be more, or : less, than fellow veterans who, carried the same amount of insurance for the same length of time, i The amount of surplus funds (to be distributad) in each age group varies. 4. Another factor affecting the amount of dividend payments is the calendar date of eacn policy. The cut-off date for payment of After anendinc twa rears la ' i . V,V. , ..... . r p - .... . la America.
