Reserves Sore
Over Year Book
Portland, Aug. 19 W The
head of the Multnomah county
sheriff's reserve parted compa
ny with Sheriff Marion (Mike)
Leroy Elliott yesterday.
John A. Erhardt complained
about a 56-page booklet pub
lished as the "Multnomah Coun
ty Sheriff's Reserve Yearbook."
It printed hardly anything
about the reserve and had too
many advertisements, he said.
What's more, the sale of the ads
makes it impossible for the re
serve to get support for its an
nual "thrill show," he added.
The show's proceeds normally
go to work among juveniles. Er
hardt, president of the reserve,
said merchants would not make
"a second contribution this year
to the reserve."
The Oregonlan, which has
been supporting a recall move
against the sheriff, said the year
book had been put together by
two promoters with the perm is
sion of Elliott.

MORE ON FIVE PERCENTERS
Deep Freezers Tied Into
. John Maragon's Activities
Washington, Aug. 19 (UR) The Washington Daily News said to
day secret testimony which President Truman said was being
suppressed by the senate committee investigating "five per centers"
because it was "favorable" to his aide, Maj. Gen. Harry H.
Vaughn, showed that Harry G. Hoffman, Milwaukee advertising
man. checked into the Whites-
House the moment he arrived In
Washington in answer to a com
mittee subpoena.
Hoffman s testimony, given
behind closed doors last Mon
day, showed he spent one hour
in the White House talking to
Vaughan, the News said.
The testimony further reveal
ed, according to the newspaper.
that the first batch of deep
freezers which Hoffman arrang
ed to have sent to Vaughan as
gifts, arrived just before John
Maragon succeeded in arrang
ing for an .air transport com
mand flight to Paris on behalf
of the Verley Perfume Co. of
Chicago. The Verley company
paid for the freezers.
The secret testimony, the
News continued, also showed
that the second and last batch
of deep freezers arrived just be
fore some perfume oils which
Maragon allegedly tried to
smuggle into this country were
released by customs officials.
. The secret session testimony
also went into the entire smug
gling incident during cross-ex
amination of Hoffman, the News
reported it was because of the
implication of this testimony,
the newspaper added, that Sens.
Clyde R. Hoey, D., N. C, and
Herbert R. O'Conor, D., Md.,
felt it was unfair to make it pub
lic until all angles had been
checked. Sen. Karl Mundt, R-.
S.D., commented at the closed
session that the ATC transpor
tation to Europe was cleared
right after the first batch of
freezers had been shipped.
Other testimony, the News
said, has showed that two freez
ers went to Vaughan in June,
one for the White House and the
other for the Truman home In
Independence, Mo., and that
Maragon and Hoffman, whose
agency has had the Verley ac
count since 1933, left for Europe
