Truman Asks
Discarding of
Aid EM Rider
1 WASHINGTON, Sept 20-iaV
, President Truman urged congress
tday to refrain from barring eco
nomic aid to nations which sell
war potential articles to iron cur
tain countries. He said that such
course carries "dancer to. the
United States and to world peace.
Mr. Truman presented the ar
gument in letters calling on the
lawmakers to discard a rider
which the senate had tacked Ohio
the $17,000,000,000 emergency ap
propriation to buy more arms for
' .the, United States -and furnish
weapons to friendly nations over
seas. '
The president wrote to Senator
McKellar (D-Tenn.) .and Rep.
Cannon (D-Mo.), chairman of the
x appropriations committees of the
nwo houses, just -ahead of sched
tiled action by the house on the
. Issue.
There were quick indications
that he might make some head
way with his plea, but no hints
- that the whole idea was likely to
be thrown out.
At the time the letter was made
public key house members were
predicting that their branch would
accept the senate proposal. .
In the late afternoon, however,
the decision .was put off until to
morrow, with Cannon exnressinff
- hope that an acceptable compro
mise' can be worked out in the
meantime. The postponement fol
lowed considerable maneuvering
aimed at lining up votes to make
the ban less rigid.
; There was no important dispute
among the house, senate and
White House over other provisions
of the bill. Its principal allotments
re $11,738,000,000 for national
defense and $4,000,000,000 for for
eign arms aid. . .
' The ban on economic assistance
to countries selling waruseful ma
terials to the soviet east never had
been passed on by the house be
fore the measure came up there
.. today.
i Mr. Truman pointed out that the
language 01 ue Din covers any
crucies wmcn might be used for
the production of military mate
riel" and said that takes in prac
tically everything. Thus if it were
jnade effective, he said, the result
would amount to a complete em
bargo. He added:
i "To cut this trade off suddenly
wouia . Dring about dislocations in
fhe : western nations that would
more than offset any advantages
mat mignt be gained."

Knowledge of
Oakes Slaying
TORONTO. . Sept 20-MVThe
Question of who killed wealthy
Sir Harry Oakes flared anew to
day.
Two persons claimed to know
the story behind .lhe fatal blud-
eoning oz the Canadian mining
magnate seven years ago in the
Bahamas. ' ' -
" One was an English-born Tor
onto woman quoted by the Tor
onto Star but who declined to di
vulge her name publicly. The other
was Edward Majava, 31-year-old
mechanic in Oakland, Calif.
But just whom they pointed the
finger at was not disclosed.
Additionally, police took a story
from Mrs. Hildegarde Hamilton,
a portrait artist in Fort Lauder
dale, Fla. She said she told them a
story Majava told her two years
ago.
Acting Police Superintendent
Augustus Roberts, of Nassau, the
Bahamas, flew to Oakland after
conferring with Mrs. Hamilton.
Roberts conferred with Oakland
police today. He was to question
Majava later.
The Toronto. Star quoted the
Toronto woman as saying the ac
tual slayer was a son ot a white
father and Negro mother, but that
he acted only as the hireling of a
"powerful" plotter.
She said "it is quite well known
that ! he (the murderer) hired a
man to kill Sir Harry. He planned
and paid for it and the slayer was
merely his toot"
