FOUR MEDTOltD (ORZOOK) Baruch Says HST Knew of Donations To 1940 Campaign New York U.R) Bernard Ba ruch tossed back to the winter White House Thursday his ans wer to denials that the President was unaware of his contribu tions to Mr. Truman's 1940 Mis souri senatorial campaign. The elder statesman said Wed nesday night that Mr. Truman not only knew about the con tributions but "very graciously thanked me in person." "I very distinctly remember he came in once to see me when 1 was in Washington and thanked me graciously," Baruch said. Mentioned in Article The white-haired financier's part in Mr. Truman's successful campaign for a second Senate term 12 years ago was mentioned in a Saturday Evening Post ar ticle. "What You Don't Know About Truman," by Samuel Lu- bell. an associate of Baruch. Lubell said Baruch "contrib uted generously" to the cam paign. Gov. James F. Byrnes of South Carolina said that Baruch made two large contributions to help Mr. Truman in his bid for re election to the Senate. Knowledge Denied '"Mr. Truman requested me to ask Mr. Baruch for assistance and I did so and Mr. Baruch con tributed generously," Byrnes said. "Then a second time Mr. Truman made a similar request to me to ask Mr. Baruch for as sistance. I again did so and Mr. Baruch again contributed." When White House Press Sec retary Joseph Short was asked for comment following publica tion of Lubell s article, he said Mr. Truman had no way of knowing who contributed to his campaign because the money was sent to the Missouri Demo cratic organization." A Nichols? Worth of Comment On BY HARMAN United ; Press Washington (U.PJ This was right after the late war. A little American girl, w h o se daddy was Ger man-born, was hiding out, trembling. Out yonder was a cow. Somebody else's cow. The little girl would sneak through the brush, kneel and pull the "cords." It Harmon Nichols became a habit uie only wuy to get milk in Germany. But it was "skim" milk even right from the cow. As Mary Ann Scherer told it to me, that was the only way a cow could give milk in Germany in those days. "The cows had no more to eat than we did. So how could they produce any butterfat," she said simply. j Mary Ann, fattened up, pretty and 17, is back in America to day little the worse for eating potato peels and drinking skim milk. She told me her story over a glass of orange juice. Taken to Homeland Her daddy, John A. Scherer, was born in Germany. He came over here and had taken out only his first papers when he decided to take his family back to the homeland to visit the grandparents. - - . Mary Ann was a tot then and doesn't remember the boat ride. Then along came the war. The father was drafted into the Ger man army. The mother, an older brother, and Mary Ann were left in a town known as Windheima-isch, which to Ann became known as the "home of The Winds." "We heard a lot of firing and we were sniped at and we were cold, but we didn't get hurt," she said. "The schools closed and my brother and I didn't learn much." Took Ride for Food During those days, Mary Ann said, the folks in the town used to ride atop a freight car 300 to 400 miles to get potato peels. "We used to put them into a pot, along with some pepper, the blood from an animal, and make what we called 'blood f u ft 1 flaj to a cur r--1i SATSUMA , PLUM JAM V M& oz. tci-iox JAKS MAO. tribqhe POSSIBILITY OF STEPPING UP air war in Korea because truce talks have bogged down Is believed among topics discussed at meet tag between Gen.

(International) 148 City Teachers Elected By District School Board A total of 148 teachers in Med- ford public schools were elected by the District 49 school board at a meeting held Tuesday night. The board did not consider the names of teachers who notified the board that they were not candidates for reelection. The board elected no new teachers at the meeting. Those elected must accept or reject This and That W. NICHOLS Future Writer sausage," she recalled. "It wasn't too bad." Also, said Mary Ann, Amer icans over there used to be a little more fortunate than oth ers. They had clothes. They would trade these for flour. The flour went to the baker and the baker came up with fine, black bread. The Americans would smuggle it to the neighbors. The neighbors were grateful. Tea for Drinks For drink well, tea. Mary Ann, who was born near Cranford, N. J., recalls that there were linden trees over there. When dried, those leaves could be made into mighty fine tea. When the war ended the Scherer family .became heroes all. They got on the list of the American Red Cross for pack ages. Bags of clothes, food, canned or otherwise and the like. "For a half a bar of candy I was the queen for a day," Mary Ann says. The Grange Phoenix Grange Phoenix Grange met March 11 with Master Claude . Hutton presiding. County Agent W...B.
