Truman Vetoes
FDR Memorial
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 (P)
President Truman announced
today he had vetoed a house
bill to establish a Theodore
Roosevelt national park in the
village of Medora, N. D.. and
a monument in memory of the
late president.
"The area that would be established-,
by this bill as the
Theodore Roosevelt national
park." the president said in a
memorandum of disapproval,
"does not possess those out
standing natural features of
scenic qualities that would jus
tify its establishment as a na
tional park and has no direct
historical association with
Theodore Roosevelt.
"Neither the Maltese Cross
ranch, in which President
Roosevelt had an interest, nor
the Elkhorn ranch, which he
owned, are embraced within
the proposed park area."
The president said the land
within the proposed site is now
a part of the Theodore Roose
velt national wildlife refuge,
and is "best fitted for use as a
wildlife protection and manage
ment area."
He said if a national park is
to be established in honor of
the late president, it should
"more fully measure up to the
standards developed and main-
I tained in the past for national
I narks "

C1UDAD TRUJILLO. Domini
can Republic. Aug. 10 Wi
Panic spread through the north
ern provinces ol tnis paltered
country today, with hunger
threatening the weary popula
tion as the result of a six-day
ordeal of earthquakes and tidal
waves which have killed 73 per
sons and left 20,000 homeless.
Two new tremblors were felt
this morning, at 4 a. m. and 6:50
a. m., but they did not add to
the damage.
With earth tremors of varying
Intensity jarring the terrain
throughout the republic about
every five minutes, fear has
gripped the inhabitants, particu
larly about Bahia Escocesa
(Scatch bay) in the northern part
of the island, where there is
great apprehension that violent
shocks will strike again.
Not a single inhabitant re
mains in the shattered coastal
towns of Matanzas, Puerto Plata,
Batcy, Samana and Sanchez
where there was a swift evacua
tion following Sunday's earth
quakes. Many refugees from
the destroyed towns are living
in trees and caves in nearby
hills.
The Red Cross has set up refu
gee camps in the northern prov
inces, but present accommoda
tions are not sufficient for the
thousands of homeless.
Towns Wiped Out
(Travelers arriving in San
Juan. Puerto Rico, from the
Dominican Republic, said vir
tually all the houses in Matanzas,
which had a populaton of 1000
were washed away by the tidal
wave and tnat the destruction
was equally severe in Julia Mo
lina and San Francisco de Ma
coris). Attempts by the government
to rush lood to the stricken areas
have been seriously hampered by
the, washing out of roads and
bridges by flooded rivers. '
The revised death toll included
39 persons killed by a tidal wave
which struck the northern city
of Bajio. The injured there to
taled 139. It was previously
believed that 50 lost their lives
at Bajio.
The shocks were believed
caused by a shift in the bed of
the Atlantic at its deepest point
50 miles northeast of the island,
where the water is 28,680. feet
deep.
Big Shake-Up
Made In VAA
WASHINGTON. Aue. in tlPi
A wholesale shakeup of an en
tire division of the war assets
administration, including the
dismissal of 52 paid consultants,
was made public by WAA-today.
Director Robert M. Little
john announced that he had
ordered "drastic changes" and
a reorganization of the elec
tronics division, which handles
sales of surplus radio and radar
equipment.
Other WAA officials gave a
fuller picture: The director,
Robert S. McCurdy, resigned a
week ago, and scores of Wash
ington and field office employes
have been dropped.
The division has been criti
cized by Sen. Wiley (R-Wis.),
who said it failed to get sur
plus radio equipment into the
hands, of veterans and small
business, by Sen. Wherry (R
Neb.) for "apparently monopo
listic" methods of concentrating
surplus sales in a few large
corporations, and by other con
gress members.

"I am a member of the Ku

"I attended one meeting and

Stony Silence
Greets Appeal
From Premier
PARIS, Aug. 10 (P) Italy's Premier Aiclde de Gnsperl urged
the peace conference today to ease the terms of the proposed;
peace treaty and postpone for a year the solution of the problejtt
of Trieste, claimed by both Italy and Yugoslavia. ,
De Gaspcrl said the treaty draft drawn up by the -foreign
ministers council was "a hard treaty" indeed, with the limitation
upon weapons jeopardizing "the defense of our very Independ
ence." '
As for Trieste and the Istrian peninsula, the Italian pleaded
"What good will come of clinging to a solution which only
bids for new trouble?" M
'With regard to reparations,"
De Casperi said, "Italy though
prepared lor all necessary sacri
fices, must make it clear that she
cannot underwrite indefinite sac
rifices for an indefinite period.
Big Rusian Demand
Soviet Russia seeks $100,000,
000 reparations from the
Italians.
The Italian premier argued
that the Italian fleet had served
under the allies for three years
and should not be treated as war
booty.
There was a stiff and stony
silence in the chamber of Lux
embourg palace as the Italian
statesman left the speaker'!
stand after his 41-minute ad
dress. Only U. S. Secretary of State
James F. Byrnes relieved the
coldness of the occasion.
The secretary reached out as
Lie Gasperi passed him and shook
the Italian s hand.
Premier De Gasperi spoke the
case for the former axis power
before the conference after a
morning session devoted to an
inconclusive debate over an in
vitation to Albania to attend. In
the course of that debate Rus
sia's V. M. Molotov walked out
on an address by Constantin
Tsaldaris, chief Creek dele

regime.

Andrews asked him about the
statement he was reported to
have made during his recent
campaign that "the way to stop

from the night before."
Bilbo: "The reporters may not
be so reliable."
Andrews: "I think on this, sir,
I would bet on the reporters'
integrity against yours, because
all of the reporters seem to agree
on that particular quote."
The senator then said the
exact statement he made was:
"The best time to keep a nigger

The incidents go back to last
May 26 and involve three per
sons. On that night Romanian gov

Elvira Olteanu, a clerk in th
American political mission head

Despite persistent efforts hv
Berry to obtain her release. Mis

Another incident that nieht
was the disappearance of Alex

No serious forest fires were

dropping to dangerous lows all
fire fighting crews are on the

Italians or high class Jews.
Bilbo's statement about Sen
ator. Taft was prompted by a
question from Dickson in which
he quoted Taft as saying Bilbo
was a "disgrace to the senate."
Bilbo declared Taft "has
played every string on the in
strument in his effort to line up
what we call the pinks and reds
and the off-brand of the political
life of America, to further his
interest as a candidnte for the
presidency of the United States."
Andrews asked if Bilbo agreed
with a magazine poll which voted
him the "worst man in the sen
ate" and Bilbo retorted:
"The best judge of senatorial
service would be the people ol
