Mrs. Helen W. Woodard, Books Fail To Back Up Truman Story WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 IW A spokesman at the Library ot Con gress said today lhat a search of available reference hooks failed to turn up any data to back up Presi dent Truman's story that the vice president-elect In 1852 would have been "mixed up in a lot of things" had he lived. Mr. Truman told the story to re porters in Connecticut. He said dis closure that Republican vice presi dential nominee. Richard M. Nixon had accepted $16,000 made this year's political campaign a close parallel to the 1852 presidential race. DIED IN CUBA Mr. Truman said that Franklin Pierce's running mate in 1852 William Rufus King died in Cuba after taking the oath of office, but that if King had lived to return to the United States he would have found himself "mixed up in a lot ot things." He referred reporters to Stefan Lorant's "The Presi dency" for details. The Library of Congress report ed that Lorant's book includes a report on the 1852 campaign but that nowhere does the book sug gest King "was involved in any scandal." . NO HINT OF SCANDAL A quick look at other reference books, including a sketch of King in the Dictionary of American Biography Directory of the Amer ican Congress, and History of Vice Presidents of the United States, likewise fail to disclose any hint of scandal in King's background, the Library of Congress spokesman said. He said other reference books were locked up for the weekend. Fund Report Gets Everyone in the Act NEW LONDON. Conn. Of) ! President Truman exulted quietly Saturday over the political furore involving Republican vice presi dential nominee Richard M. Nixon while he spent nearly four hours inspecting the Coast Guard Aca demy here, v During the train trip "to New London Truman read with enjoy ment newspaper accounts dealing with the disclosure that Nixon ac cepted some $16,000 in senatorial expense money from California business men the past two years. Aides said Truman showed ob vious pleasure over the Nixon de velopment in a campaign in which the Republicans have hit hard at disclosures of corruption in the administration. And they added the President might have much to say about it in his "whistle stop" trip starting from Washington next Saturday night. Fund Disclosure Result Of Digging by Newsmen PASADENA, Calif, lifu. The dis closure of the Nixon fund was the result of digging by four newspa permen, one working at long range, the other three on the scene here. Peter Edson, NEA columnist, apparently was the first to get wind of the fund. He said he first heard rumors of its existence at the Republican convention in Chi cago in July. The other three Leo Katcher. Train Shipments Hit New Peak New York Post correspondent; Richard Donovan,' Reporter Maga zine staffer; and Ernest Breashear, Los Angeles Daily News reporter each stumbled on to it while mak ing separate inquiries in recent weeks. When each discovered the others had knowledge, of the fund, they got together and jointly interview ed Dana C. Smith, the fund custo dian, bst Monday afternoon; Edson, in the meanwhile, talked j to Nixon Sunday night. "He told me the basic facts and said it was all right to use them," Edson said Saturday in Washing ton. Nixon gave him Smith's name to check for details. Senator Supplements Income With Speeches SEATTLE tn A Seattle news paper said Saturday Sen. Harry P. Cain had disclosed he supple ments his official income by ac cepting fees, totaling about $5,000 a year, for speaking engagements. Unless he did so, the Times quot ed the Republican Senator as say ing, he would not he able to carry on the minimum obligations of a Senator: The Times said it had questioned other members of the Washington Congressional delegation about their incomes after Democratic Sen. Warren G. Magnuson assert ed he had no special account to draw on. SALEM (IP The State Depart ment of Agriculture said this week that August marked a record breaking movement o' grain by way of river barges and trucks into Portland. C. W. Wright, chief of the de partment's division of grain in spection, said it seemed as if Portland's elevators, mills and; docks were in the midst of thej grain fields.. Streams of trucks lined up throughout, each day awaiting turns at unloading. And river barges almost constantly dis charged their yellow gold at, specially equipped elevators or ; waited their turns at the unloading berths. , v V By these two modes of hauling not including the heavy movement of grain hy raill.902.622 bushels of grain were, shipped into Port land in August. Forty-three barges discharged 811,578 bushels of wheat, and 1180 trucks hauled in 576,759 bushels. Slightly more than 150 trucklots of oats and barley were inspected. Truck movement of barley was under last year because the qual ity was better for malting purposes and more barley was loaded by rail for direct shipment. Soft Coal Strike Off as Lewis Gets New Pact $1.90 Daily Wage Hike, More Welfare Payments WASHINGTON ItPI A major soft'eoal strike was averted Satur day when John L. Lewis and northern producers agreed to a new wage and welfare contract. The agreement called for $1.90 daily wage boost for 170,000 north ern miners. John L. Lewis, United Mine Workers president, and Harry Moses, chief negotiator for north ern soft coal producers, jointly announced the agreement. SUNDAY WALKOUT The pact was signed six and one-half hours before contracts covering the northern soft coal miners were to have expired. A walkout was scheduled for Sunday midnight, the beginning of the new work-week. Southern soft coal producers are terms or lace a striKe uct. i. The new northern agreement also calls for a 10-cent a ton pay ment increase by the operators to the. union's welfare fund. The operators now pay 30 cents a ton. ; The new contract will run from Oct. 1, this year to Oct. 1, 1953. The wage boost increases the miners' average basic daily wage to $18.25 a day., WELFARE FUND PAYMENTS Previously hard coal operators had reached an "interim" agree ment with Lewis to boost pay ments to the UMW welfare fund to 50 cents a ton and to abide by the wage terms agreed to in the soft coal dispute. The hard coal operators produce fuel mainly for home consumption; the soft coal operators for the na tion's mighty industries. ; Lewis called the settlement a "triumph of collective bargaining." Moses said the settlement would cost the operators about 32 cents an hour and that overall costs of the agreement would be "some thing under" 40 cents for each ton of coal mined. PAY INCREASE Moses said the wage boost aver aged an 11.6 per cent increase in miners' pay. He said the northern operators will seek an increase in the ceiling price of coal, "al though the selling price is now substantially below ceiling." The industry leader said he was "satisfied" with the contract but,' lo a question by a reporter, said be "couldn't say 'pleased.' " i Chaplin Return Barred WASHINGTON I Movie comedian Charles Chaplin, now on his way to Europe, Saturday fares a government order bar ring his return to the United States until officials determine whetheh he. can legally reenter under immigration laws. No reason for the unexpected order was given when it was announced Friday by Atty. Gen. McGranery. The Justice Depart ment would not elaborate. Under American Immigration Uws an alien can be refused en try into the country for moral turpitude, or for political affilia tions, among other reasons. Chaplin, 63, is an alien born In England. Ho came tn the U.S. 40 years ago but never became a citizen. His name has been as sociated with leftist causes. In 1944 he was indicted and then acquitted on charges of violat ing the Mann Act, which forbids transporting a woman across a state line for Immoral purposes.
