O 0 i . f besTc Thextra years enrich Lg its great Bourbon flavor Former President Denies Report of Tifl With Pauley Kansas City, Mo. (U.R) Former President Harry Tru man did just what the doctor ordered when he cancelled his west coast speaking tour, al though "he really wanted to make that trip," his doctor said today. Dr. Wallace Graham, Mr. Tru man's physician, said the former President may resume his speak ing schedule when the weather gets cooler. In Washington, the Copley Press said last night that Mr. Truman cancelled appearances at two California Democratic dinners because he is "sore"' at Edwin W. Pauley, a key figure in the dinner arrangements. Said 'Thoroughly Mad' T In a dispatch for its five Il linois and nine California news papers, the Copley Press said Mr. Truman is 'thoroughly mad" because Pauley held a re ception for Vice President Rich ard M. Nixon during the recent Festival of Americans in Los Angeles. But from his home in Inde pendence, Mo., Mr. Truman said kthere was "not a word of truth in it (the Copley report)." He said he had been a close friend of Pauley for many years. The Copley dispatch said Mr. Truman's "animosity" toward Nixon dates back to the 80th Congress Nixon, then a congress man, played a key part in events leading to the conviction of Alger Hiss for perjury. No Specific Source The newspaper group put the story on an "it was learned" bas is with no specific source of information. "Right now in this heat thought Mr. Truman should not make the trip," Dr. Graham said, "I don't want to say what's wrong with him, but it's noth ing serious. It's a precautionary measure. The 71-year-old Truman re turned here yesterday after a speaking engagement in Michi gan where heresumed his "give-'em-hell'" political campaigning. Dr. Graham agreed that Mr. Tru man's vigorous speeches were a factor in his decision to suggest cancellation of the rest of the tour. "Mr. Truman is an excel lent patient. Dr. Graham said. "He really wanted to make that trip, he wanted to make it very badly. But I told him no, and he came home." Dr. Graham said the former President is fully recovered from his gall bladder surgery in July, 1954. He said the Presi dent's blood pressure was good and he did not expect coronary trouble, a common danger in men of Mr. Truman's age. ' Dr. Graham said he always checks the former v President's proposed speaking tour. "He lets mesee his proposed itinerary and then I go over it and that's when I decide what ones he can make," the doctor said. "This time I thought it would be better if he made trips in coolereweather." Asked if Mrs. Truman played any part in the former Presi dent's decision, Dr., Graham laughed and said It was "strictly a case between a good patient and his doctor." Dr. Graham said Mrs. Truman would be able to return (to the political wars in September or October.
