Oklahoma Old
Agers Get Cut
Oklahoma City, Jan. 31 VP)
Oklahoma's 101,000 old age pen
sioners will have to get by on
13 percent less assistance alter
April 1.
The state public welfare com
mission ordered the slash in as
sistance payments yesterday. An
emergency cut to all persons re
ceiving more than $50 per
month was also ordered for the
month of March.
The action was taken, the
commission said, because the re
serve fund next month would be
down to $600,000, the minimum
necessary for operation.
The legislature set up the pre
sent system in 1948.
With the fund dwindling from
$6,000,000 in less than two years,
Welfare Director Virgil Stokes
said there was no immediate
hope for additional income.
The reduction in March will
affect 68,337 persons, Stokes
said.
He told commission members
that slightly dropping living
cost made the reduced assistance
reasonable. He added that Okla
home is now paying the highest
assistance in the nation based
upon per capita income.
Slayer of Three

Alexandria, Va., Jan. 31 VP)
West Point honor graduate John

Cecilia, 5, Michael, 9, and
Stephanie, 11, were shot down
by their father as they pre
pared to leave for school Dec
7. He had been called by neigh
bors "a perfect husband and father."
Conner was a civilian con
struction engineer at Fort Bel-voir.
Mrs. Conner, mother of the
slain children, wept silently
when the verdict was given. The
sanity commission, composed of
a judge and two physicians, de
liberated but 17 minutes. Con
ners father, Guy Conner, of
Portland, Ore., was by his son's
side.

OK for Bosses Out
With Secretaries
Chicago, Jan. 31 W) A
group of secretaries wined
and dined with their bosses
last night. The bosses' wives
approved and stayed home.
There were lots of pretty
girls, all with new dresses and
extra smidgins of lipstick to
show their bosses that they're
attractive as well as compe
tent. The third annual boss night
dinner of the Lake Shore
chapter of the National Secre
taries association drew a large
number of business, indus
trial and professional leaders.
The secretaries chipped in
and each boss was given a
silver smoking set. Each gift
was dedicated to "That really
Swell guy, the boss."
One executive told a re
porter: "If she asks for a raise to
morrow, how am I going to
say no?"
Fargo
Wells
Has Yen for You
San Francisco, Jan. 31 U.R)
The Wells Fargo bank has a yen
for somebody in fact $627,
860.07 worth of them.
The yen in this instance is
money deposited with the bank
by the Nationalist government
of China.
Who is entitled to it is the
question the war-deposed Na
tionalists or the communists who
have taken over most of the
country.
It all came up in federal court
here today when Robert W. Ken
ny, former California attorney
general, told Judge Louis E
Goodman he represents the new
management in China and wants
to be counsel for the Bank of
China. It is suing Wells Fargo
for the money.
Morris Doyle, Nationalist rep-
senlative, said Kenny has no
foundation for a claim since the
United States does not recognize
the communists.
Wells Fargo said it does not
care who gets the money just
as long as the bank does not
have to pay twice.

Truman's Legal
Adviser Quits
Washington, Jan. 31 VP) -
Clark M. Clifford steps out as
President Truman's legal advis
er today and steps into a private
law office tomorrow.
For four years Clifford has
been at the president's elbow as
chief counsel. Before that he was
there as naval aide.
The handsome, personable 44
year-old lawyer is credited with
helping with the ghost writing
chores on many a presidential
speech including those that got
Mr. Truman an upset election
victory in 1948.
Moving into the spot of chief
legal expert at the White House
is Charles Murphy, a quiet North
Carolinian who has been serv
ing as an administrative assist
ant to Mr. Truman. Murphy's
specialty has been legislative
problems.
Clifford is giving up a $20,-000-a-year
job it recently was
raised from $12,000 for what he
calls "impelling personal rea
sons." He says he owes it to his fam
ily, a wife and three daughters,
to try to make more by return
ing to practicing law. There will
be no vacation before the shift.
Clifford told a reporter that at
9 a.m. tomorrow "I'll be in my
new office, ready for business.
He and an old friend, Edward
H. Miller, have formed a part
nership. Clifford and Miller
both started out as lawyers in
St. Louis about the same time,
back in 1928.
Miller also has spent some
time in government service
five years in the justice depart
ment's anti-trust division.
Clifford says the partnership
won't specialize but engage in a
general law practice.
