lasted about two months as the
government corruption hunter is

hours before President Truman
ousted McGrath, spent two
stormy days on trie witness stand
before the Senate committee.
Despite critical questioning, he
defend-d his law firm's role as
counsel for a Chinese-financed
firm which obtained three sur
plus tankers from a group of
Washington "insiders" and al
lowed two of them to carry oil
to Communist China ports in
1949.
Morris also is president of a
non-profit eduational foundation
which was given control of the
tankers bought by the Chinese
financed firm. That arraignment
was under fire, too.

Living Standards
Of Mules Too High
Washington (U.R) The
Army can't even give away its
mules abroad because they are
used to too high a standard of
living.
That conclusion was reached
after hearings before a House
appropriations s u b c o mmittee.
The "good life" has resulted in
the virtual abandonment o f
mules as pack animals and trans
porters of mountain artillery,
according to Maj. Gen. W. O.
Reeder, deputy assistant chief
of staff.
The subcommittee learned
from Reeder that in other coun
tries, the American Army is at
considerable disadvantage is
using American mules. It has
been principally because the
mules "are accustomed to the
same high standard of living as
we are."
As an example, the subcom
mittee heard that when a ship
ment of mules arrived in India,
it was impossible to give them
away because they ate more
than any man except possibly
a wealthy man. When asked
how horses exist In the Orient,
Reeder added that rich men have
horses, "but they train them not
to eat."
The army's chief mule buyer,
Maj. L. O. Hill, of the quarter
master corps' remount branch,
added that the 98 mules that the
Army hopes to buy in fiscal
1953 will cost $200 each.
