The pay-off on this latest battle into which the 7l-year-old cabinet officer has engaged will depend, however; -on how anxious Mr. Truman is for Mr. Pauley’s confirma Some persons believe Mr. Pauley’s nomination merely was a pay-off for politica! services rendered and that ‘the President has no great

But there Is persuasive evidence that when Mr. Pauley was nominated as undersecretary the President’ deliberately was putting him in position to succeed Secretary of Navy James Forrestal, who Is expected to leave the cabinet this year. Heat on Ickes?

If that was Mr. Truman's intention, the President may not take kindly to Mr, Ickes’ effort to prevent Mr. Pauley’s confirmation. It is likely that an issue of that kind might persuade the President to wave on his secretary of interior. If Mr. Pauley did eventually succeed Mr. Forrestal and Mr. Ickes remained in the cabinet, ‘the pair probably would need a referee, Mr. Ickes was uneasy in his cabinet chair a few months ago and somewhat resentful against Mr. Truman, The secretary felt that hg should have some positive gesture from the White House indicating that he should remain in the cabinet. Up to Truman He may have gotten it because he has stayed on and only this week announced that his doubts about continuing had been resolved in favor of keeping on the job. But that was before he put the firiger on Mr. Pauley. Whether the old “curmudgeon” has picked 'himself a losing fight apparently will depend on whether Mr. Pauley is dearer to Mr. Truman than the Ick. | At the hearing Mr. Pauley was confronted with the following testi- | niony: ONE: Former Assistant Attorney General Norman Littell said Mr. Pauley asked him to arrange a meeting with former Attorney General Francis Biddle, saying that oil men who had contributed to the Demo¢ratio party “expected something in return.” ; TWO: Mr. Ickes sald Mr. Pauley sought His influence in having the suit dropped, reminding him that such action would mean ‘several hundred thousand dollars” to the| party treasury. THREE: Committee /Chairman | vid, I. Walsh (D, Mass) said thé evidence is overwhelming that Mr. Pa did everything in his power to have the (Tideland) suit dropped.”

Senator CHarlés W. Tobey (R. N. H.), leader of the forces fighting Mr. Pauley's confirmation to the navy post, previotisly read testimony by Mr. Pauley categorically denying that he had roacheéd either Mr. Ickes or Mr. Biddle in the oil case.

‘Afraid It'S Not True’ Mr. Littell t6ld the committee that if Mr, Pauley said he had never approached Mr. Biddle, “I am afraid it is not true.” Then he told how Mr. Patiley, on the pretext of having a social drink, corneréd Wim inh a4 New York hotel room and “put on the heat” to have | the suit dropped.
