CHARLIE'S LUCKY DAY
1 Here's What Happened
(Editor's Note: Charles Corte, Acme Newspicture photog
rapher, was 200 feet away when two Puerto Mean revolution
ists tried to assassinate President Truman Tuesday. Here Is his
eyewitness account of what happened.)
By CHARLES CORTE
Washington, Nov. 2 (U.R)The lights turned red and I tromped
on the brake.
For all I know that light still is red. I didn't stick around to
see if it ever changed to green.
I have heard gunfire before in North Africa, in Sicily, at
DMtciiiu. Aiiafc uui&c irum in ironir
of President Truman's Blair
House home was no motorcycle.
I grabbed my camera and hit
the street.
A second later I was peeking
from behind a concrete pillar at
what was going on at Blair
House across Pennsylvania Ave.
In all, there were two spurts
of gunfire, the shots spaced so
close together that they sound
ed like machinegun bursts.
There was the whine of bullets
ricocheting off the old state de
partment building opposite the
president's home.
They told me in Italy that "if
you hear the whine, you haven't
been hit." I heard the whine.
...
I don't think Donald Birdzell
did. - -
Birdzell is a cop on the White
House detail. When I saw him,
he was flopping into the street
in front of Blair house. He got
to his knees, shooting.
I knew he had been hit. I
knew what he was doing In
the street, too. Someone was
using him for a target so he
was moving the target as far
as possible from the man he
was assigned to protect, the
president
Lying prone at the foot of
Blair House steps was another
figure, in mufti. This was the
man, identified later as Oscar
Collazo, who had tried to shoot
his way to where the president
was.
I was running across the
street while I was taking all this
In.
I made several shots of the
man at the foot of the steps be
fore anybody got there to see
what had happened to him.
He looked dead to me. Crum
pled. Sort of slack. His chest was
gory and there was blood on his
head. I thought he was dead,
but somebody turned him over
and said "this one s still alive.
About that time a secret serv
ice man I knew shouted, "Hey
Charlie, there s another one be
hind the bushes."
This was the man they said
later was Griselio Torresola. He
had rushed the sentry box to the
left of Blair House. That ex-
plained the second burst I had
"1 heard.
Torresola's momentum had
carried him, after he was shot
In the head, into a low box
wood hedge. It had flipped
him head over heels onto the
narrow strip of grass in front
of Blair House.
I got pictures of him, too.
The other gunman looked dead
but wasn't This one was dead
but didn't look It. He was ly
ing there with his eyes open.
Torresola shot two policemen,
Joseph Downs and Leslie Cof-
felt, before they got him.
Coffelt died about four hours
later. When I saw him, he was
stretched out bleeding on the
sidewalk about six feet from the
dead gunman.
I never did see the president,
but someone said he appeared in
his shorts at a second story bed
room window almost before the
shooting stopped. He had been
taking a nap.
I'm sorry I didn't get a picture
of him.
All this time I was shooting
pictures from every angle
could think of . I was really
pumping. It was a minute or so
before the crowds cleared away.
A man rushed up and shout
d, "Did you get THE man?" He
meant the president. I said no
t and kept pumping.
, As the last ambulance drove
' off, I ran to the corner and
grabbed a cab for the office.
It was two hours before I
got chance to go back and
look for my car. Somebody
had shoved It out of the mid
dle of the street and left It be
side fire hydrant.
It was my lucky day. I didn't
tven get a ticket.

Secret Service
Men Guard
Truman Always
By JAMES MARLOW
Washington, Nov. 2 VP)
There were secret service men
inside Blair House where Pres.
ident Truman was sleeping when
two Puerto Ricans tried to shoot
their way in yesterday to kill
mm.
They were shot down outside
by police and secret service men,
first shooting three policemen.
But if they had escaped un
harmed outside and tried to kick
in the door, they would have re
ceived a blazing welcome.
The street shooting had arous
ed and alerted everyone inside,
including the president, who
jumped awake and ran to the
window. So the inside secret
service men had plenty of time
to get ready for the gunmen.
About 25 secret service men
have the Job of guarding the
president and his family around
the clock. Congress gave the
service that responsibility after
the assassination of President
McKinley in 1901.
While the White House Is be
ing repaired, the president con
ducts his business there but he
and his family live across the
street Pennsylvania avenue
in Blair House, a building with
high front steps.
ine Z3 secret service men
have to guard the president in
the White House, in Blair House,
on the street, and anywhere he
goes.
An additional 100 uniformed
policemen held as guards at the
White House and Blair House
but everywhere else the secret
service has the responsibility.
And this will give some idea of
how the service goes about it.
...
The president takes a daily
walk every morning before
breakfast. A secret service
agent walks beside him. Sev
eral walk close by. And a secret
service car, heavily armed and
manned, purrs along beside or
behind them.
Or the president goes on
train trip. His train is loaded
with secret service men. The
departure of the presidential
train is timed to follow close be
hind a regular passenger train
going on the same tracks. Or
the presidential train is preceded
by a pilot train.
In both cases the purpose is to
be sure the tracks are clear and
safe. To be further safe, there
are- guards at every switch.
trestle and overpass on the way
to prevent any attempt to wreck
the train.
Field secret service agents, de
tectives and patrolmen are on
guard at every railroad station
through which the train moves,
And when the train reaches its
destination, the point at which
the president gets off the train
is marked to the inch.
Take a presidential trip to
New York, for example: hun
dreds of uniformed New York
police guard every street
through which his auto passes.
And detectives are scattered
through the crowds.
Other officers guard the hotel
entrance, the elevators, the fire
escapes, and every door he will
pass. Other police guard the
fire escapes and rooftops of ad
joining buildings and the occu
pants of the buildings are Inves
tigated.
And In the hotel, the elevator
which the president will use
put out of operation several
hours before he arrives. At the
last minute it is checked over to
be sure it Is all right mechan
ically.
When the president sits down
to a meal in a hotel, there's
secret service man at the table
in front of him, another at the
tables to the right and left of
him, and others scattered among
other tables, with the guests.
And secret service agents are
at each end of the speaker's table
and at all entrances and in the
balcony. If there Is one.
What about the cooks, waiters,
entertainers and musicians In
hotel where the president dines?
The secret srevlce must be
furnished wtlh a list of all of
them days in advance. The
service then checks on the char
acter and background of all of
them before they're permitted to
work.
The cook has been well-
screened but secret service
agent never leaves the kitchen

entrance to President Truman's residence, Blair House, as a
wounded man lies on the steps (left), following a furious gun
battle in front of the house. At least three persons were shot.

Kaiser Pays Off
Fontana Loan
New York, Nov. 2 W) Henry
Kaiser paid off by check yester
day the $91,476,989 balance on
a government loan for the Kai
ser Steel corporation plant at
Fontana, Calif.
The industrialist and wartime
shipbuilder did it at a ceremony,
here from the proceeds of a
$125,000,000 financing program.
Kaiser said the repayment
with interest gave the govern
ment's reconstruction finance
corporation about $1.23 for each
dollar of the loan.
The new financing was by
public sale and by a group of
investment underwriters and in
surance companies. Some finan
cial writers emphasized that the
participation by insurance com
panies and other financial inter
ests in the largest part of the
new financing showed their con
fidence in the long range future
of the first far western steel in
dustry. The pay-off cleared Kaiser
Steel of debt to the federal
agency. Another Kaiser enter
prise, the automobile-making
Kaiser-Frazer corporation, still
has an RFC loan outstanding.
