Fair Again Best
Ever Presented
That the state fair gets bigger
and better year by year isn't
just a cliche as the statement
applies to the 1949 exhibition,
declared Bruce Williams, direc
tor of publicity for the event as
he sketched the highlights of the
program that will open Labor
day for the benefit of Salem Ki-
wanls club members Tuesday
noon.
Williams pointed to the fact
that expenditures of $400,000
entailed in this year's exhibition
means that a real effort has
been made to produce the best.
Indicating that attendance
records may be broken advance
ticket sales for the various
events have exceeded anything
of this nature in the past, said
the publicity director. Attend
ance last year was 264,177 with
the largest single day occurring
in 1946 when approximately
77,500 persons were on the
ground.
Colonel Philip W. Allison
taking up where Williams left
off in the matter of the military
display, said all branches of the
army were combining their ef
forts to fill 30,000 square feet of
space with an attractive, and ed
ucational exhibit.

thought the Maragon and Hells
contributions had gone to the
Missouri democratic campaign.
Turned Over Records
Hoey told reporters after the
hearing that Vaughan turned
his personal financial records
over to the committee several
days ago.
We haven t had a chance to
check them yet," Hoey said,
The chairman said he thinks
the committee will be able
finish with Vaughan tomorrow,
Vaughan, in his statement,
made these main points:
1. He has known Maragon
since 1941, but "I have had no
business connections with Maragon."
2. Vaughan described as "an
out-and-out fantasy" testimony
by Herbert C. Hathorn that
Vaughan had suggested that "I
would 'get his job' if he refused
to grant a request."
Molasses Charge
This request concerned efforts
of a New Jersey molasses firm
to get out from under rationing
restrictions imposed by the agri
culture department.
3. Vaughan declared that at
no time did I attempt to influ
ence the decision" of govern
ment housing officials on letting
the Tanforan race track in Cali
fornia get scarce building materials."
Tighe Woods, housing expe
diter, testified that in January,
1948, Vaughan interceded for
the track and asked him
(Woods) to "please hurry" a
permit for the materials. The
permit was granted the next day.
Freezers Gift of Friends
4. Vaughan said the seven
deep freezers he received and
distributed to Mrs. Truman and
others were "a gift from two old
friends of mine."
During the questioning about
the home freezers, Vaughan con
ceded that "I may have been in
error in some of my statements."
In his only previous public
utterance dealing with the cur
rent inquiry, Vaughan said the
freezers were experimental mo
dels or factory rejects.
Vaughan hesitatingly conced
ed he may have made an "error
in judgment" on Maragon if "all
the things that have come out
here on him prove to be true."
Bids on the second cell block,
very similar to the one just com- '
pleted, will be opened on Oc- '
tober 3 and submitted to the .
board of control and state emer
gency board for approval.
Also included in the construe
tion program is a' new 25-foot'
wall around the penitentiary ,
grounds. Thle project, from a
time standpoint, is 80 per cent '
complete. Not only is this wall
so high as to prevent any fur
ther "over the wall" escapes ,
but it is embedded in the
ground to a depth that would :
make tunnelling under the wall -
most discouraging project.
Prison Labor Used
Warden Alexander Is utilizing '.
prison labor on the construc
tion work and now has a crew '
working on a new warehouse
building, 50 by 160 by 24 feet ,
and a new root vegetable stor
age house will soon be construct- ,
ed, as well as a number of other
small buildings, already approv
ed by the two state boards.
Work on the cell block be
gan October 1, 1947, while the
first work on the new wall was
made on August 1, 1947. The
entire wall is expected to ba
completed by January 1, 1950.
