‘Runaway’ Probe Due to Produce ‘New Sensations

By Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, ec. 8&—More sensations next week

at King committee hearings.

Committee hadn't planned it that way. But probe seems to Be getting out of hand, is running on its own

steam.

+ Members had thought they could wind up hearings;

leave town for vacations. taking testimony.

Instead they'll go right on They're sitting .on an ammunition

dump, don’t know where next explosion will go off. Committee is looking into reports that tax evaders have been filing returns in certain friendly -collectors’

officés—rather than in district where they live—to avoid

trouble.

Check is being made to see if businessmen in other districts—besides California—are not turning in promptly the money they withhold from employees... Out of smoke from charges and counter-charges involving Abraham Teitelbaum testimony, you can put

this down as true:

Caudle Knew

THERON LAMAR CAUDLE knew about the shakedown charges long before King committee did. And he made no effort to investigate. Turner Smith, former Caudle aid, has told committee that Caudle’s close friend, tax-law-yer I. T. Cohen of Atlanta, heard the story from Teitelbaum when they met accidentally—as strangers—last summer on Chicago-bound plane. Smith said Cohen told him the stosy, asked him to inform

Caudle— who was then on ex-

pense-paid trip to Europe with Carmon D’Agostino. Caudle was told when he returned, called Frank Nathan, named by Teitelbaum as one who had approached him for an explanation, was satisfied with what Nathan said.

HST Crackdown?

TRUMAN supporters think the President will take strong action to clean up his administration—think it will come soon. They look for at least one change in the Cabinet. The President has been told It's his only chance. And his

_ dander’s up, say friends who ° have talked to him. this week.

Republican fire “is already trained on weak spots in Truman Cabinet; will double in intensity if changes haven't been made when Congress returns.

Kefauver Stock Up

SEN. ESTES KEFAUVER'S .

chances for Democratic presidential nomination begin to look better. No one here would have ‘given a nickel for them three months ago. Kefauver has agreed to let friends put him on the California ballot. There's a Ke-tauver-for-President organization in his home state, Tennessee, Support for him has

torned U in Kansas and Maryland. His biggest asset: He has

no strong tie with Truman administration; was first to uncover graft and corruption touching Democrats as well as Republicans. Of course, if President Truman wants the nomination, it’s his.

Sharp Look

CONGRESS will take a long, hard look when hearings start * this winter on legislation authorizing payment of property damages caused by last war. War Claims Commission, atfer two years’ study, will report early next year on types of claims that should be paid. Reason for the long, hard look: Word is being passed around that a former Democratic official tried to get property claims paid ahead of prisoner of war and internee claims; had a dummy company organized in ‘London, ready to buy up- European claims at cut rates, then collect from government here.

Might Help

THEY'RE going to lift the Iron Curtain—a little, anyway —on news of Internal Revenue Bureau affairs, For years, bureau has been able to use tax law secrecy provisions to keep all its activities out of public eye. But Commissioner John B. Dunlap has made a study of loosening up on bureau news; will show it to Treasury Secretary John Snyder when latter returns from Europe. Among recommendation: That monthly report {rom revenue commissioner to treasury secretary be given out. No decision yet on whether to publicize “offers in compromise,” by which bureau settles tax deficiency cases out of court. There's a chance books will be opened where bureau is convinced fraud is involved: Plan of opening up tax returns to public inspection—as

in Wisconsin—has been aig :

on high Democratic officials. It would take action by Congress—which isn't likely to agree.

Coal for France

AMERICAN PLAN for financing: coal exports—needed to prevent rearmament slowdown and French economfc collapse—is being -considered by French government. (France would prefer to get fuel without paying for it, if possible). . France can’t get along without American coal—but lacks dollars to buy it. American posal is to provide fuel to ‘those French companies which would use it to increase ini al ne 2 ate” samp” cout

(58 fe 48 Ptoisement SOW,

French banks. That would enable our Export-Import Bank to make necessary loan.’ Then the Paris government would permit the French company to sell in world export market enough of its increased production to obtain dollars for repayment of coal loan.

Winnie's Visit Winston Churchill's visit to Washington, starting about Jan. 3, will be less cozy than

earlier ones. ~ Churchill, as wartime prime

minister, stayed at the White

House. He and Roosevelt met informally, at all hours. Truman-Churchill relations are cordial, but .they've met only three times. (Once was when Churchill spoke®at Fulton, Mo.; was taught stud poker on the train going out.) So far, Churchill hasn’t been invited to stay at Blair House. For one thing, he’s bringing 35 persons with him. Even British Embassy (much larger) will have to room out part of this crowd. White House remodeling note: Trumans, who once hoped to celebrate Thanksgiving in official home, now will “be lucky” to get in by February.

Drafted

SEN. JOHN J. WILLIAMS (R. Del.), leader in exposing Internal Revenue Bureau scandals, will run for re-election next year. He'd been doubtful about it, but state Republican committee told him he must.

Taft's Best Seller

SEN. ROBERT A. TAFT'S hook on foreign policy is due to hit best seller lists this week-end. It's in third edition —50,000 coples—is still going strong, Critical review by Editor John Crider of Boston Herald boosted sales in Boston to 1000 in single day. Crider resigned because publisher at first refused to publish his review. Resulting publicity was a break for Taft.

New Job, Maybe RUMOR that Sen. John Sparkman (D. Ala.), may resign, take a $35,000 job with United Nations, is being published by an Alabama magazine. Story goes to sav that Birmingham Mayor Cooper Green would be appointed to succeed Sparkman in Senate. Senator's staff here throws cold water on the rumor, but State Department denials have not been forthcoming. Department says Sparkman’s service last year as ohe of five U. S. delegates to United Nations general assembly made him popular there. United Nations jobs are tax free, pay much more than senatorial jobs. Sparkman now is in Tokyo—talking about Japanese peace treaty.

Redistricting BYRNE subcommittee on congressional redistricting will report in February; will recommend federal legislation to force fair redistricting. It may recommend that federal district courts monitor new law.

Floor fight is certain in the

House. Most likely compromise would delay effective gate of new law until 1960. Court fight, challenging reapportionment in California, has already been started. Pending bill, chopping Brooklyn into strange-shaped districts, may be taken to court if passed. :

Bonn Republic S Heard by UN

Campiled From the Wire Services West German representatives charged in the United Nations that the entire production of uranium mines on the German-Czech frontier is going into the manufacture of Russian atom bombs. A West German political leader, Heinrich Van Brentano, said 250,000 slave laborers were employed in the mines, of whom 25,000 were women and children. He added that a total of 322,000 persons

have fled to the West from -

Communist-run East Germany. Spokesmen for. the Bonn Republic appeared before the United Nations for the first time to appeal for free elections throughout Germany and eventual unification of the divided country. In Berlin, the East German government announced officially that it had accepted an invitation to send representatives to Paris to" take part in the unification debate, but labelled the United Nations German proposals as “interference.”

They're Poles Apart

* General Assembly President Luis Padjlla Nervo of Mexico, reporting the day's only other major development, said the Big Four disarmament talks have reached .a stage of “fundamental disagreement” on the question of banning atomic weapons. The Big Four representatives, it was understood, have been able to agree in principle only that a 12-pation disarmament commission should be created. They remain poles apart on the instructions to be given such a commission. Mr. Nervo denied that he had submitted a memorandum on the Big Four talks which made it appear that the Western powers had scrapped some of their fundamental views on disarmament in favor of the Soviet plan. The Big Four delegates met secretely for two and a half hours Saturday, but failed to complete the report they are to make to the United Nations political committee. on their discussions.

Dr. Philip Jessup represented -

the United States; Selwyn Lloyd, Britain; Jules Moch, France, and Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky, Russia.

37,000 Deported

Mr. Von Brentano, chairman of the governing West German Christian Democratic Union Party, and Mayor Ernst Reuter of West Berlin, presented West Germany's case to the United Nations special political committee. It was the first time that the German language has been spoken in the United Nations and the first ‘time Germans have appeared before a world parliament since Adolf Hitler's" delegates walked out of the League of Nations 18 years ago. Mr. Von Brentano charged that the Soviet zone of Germany is under the control of a secret police force similar to the former Nazi Gestapo. He said 185,000 persons have been imprisoned in East Germany, that 96,000 of them died in jail, and that 37,000 were deported to Russia.

Britain PAUL GORE-BOOTH, British information director in Washington, said that Prime Minister Winston Churchill may discuss with President Truman next month “a wider association of free men” to fight agression anywhere in the world. But the British official, interviewed on a broadcasting

program, said he had no inside

information on what Churchill intends to talk about, GoreBooth said his ideas wefe based on deduction and surmise.

“He did not elaborate on what -

he meant by a “wider association of frée men.”

Mr. McGhee, who at 39 will be the youngest American ambassador, succeeds George Wadsworth who resigned. Turkey is expected to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization soon, following {ts union with the United States, Britain and France in sponsoring a new Middle East Defense Command. Mr. McGhee's appointment also made him chief of the American mission for aid to Turkey, a post held > Mr. Wadsworth for three years.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, Dec. 8 — Brazil's lone congresswoman, 24 - year - old Ivette Vargas, a grandniece of President Getulio Vargas, feels marriage would inter< fere with her career — “hesides, I don’t have time for that.” “I am single, and without any intentions of matrimony,” she asserts. “Politics is my life. It's in my blood.” And she intends to stick to it. Because of her youth she will be eligible for nothing higher than re-election to two more terms but after that—‘“well, we'll see.”

Miss Vargas is the youngest person ever elected to Brazil's congress, and only the third women.

MONTREAL department stores and many small ones owned by non-Catholics defied a new law ordering retailers to close shop on Roman Catholic holy days. i In the eastern part of Montreal, however, where French Catholics predominate, most stores closed for observance of the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. They traditionally close on church holidays, even without the law. Such big stores as Eaton's, Morgan’s, Simpson’s and Ogilvie’s contended the law was unconstitutional and violated religious freedom. Other stores along St. Catherine St. followed their lead. Police lacked authority to close the offending merchants but plainclothesmen made purchases and turned in reports for summonses to be issued later. Violation is punishable by fines of $40 or two months in jail.

Thondup and another brother, Tak-Se Tak-Tser Rimpoche, managed to escape to India when the Reds swarmed over their homeland, but the 17-year-old Lama is in Communist hands.

Yugoslavs Fall for ‘American Nonsense’

By ERNIE HILL ~ BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, c, .8, (CDN)—The invasion Western ideas into Comminist Yugoslavia is annoying to some party leaders but Marshal Tito is not alarmed. The Yugoslavs themselves are having a comparatively gay and giddy time now that their grim Soviet bosses have gone home and Tito is reopening the country to tourists, drummers and things American. “The difference between now and four years ago,” said a Yugoslav working here for an American news agency, "is

that I am no longer afraid of _

Most people, they say, like a certain amount of nonsense and gaiety. Under the Russian system, the emiphasis is on discipline and culture.

Bureau Holds Head

STRICT enforcement of federal gambling tax stamp law may become’ one of Internal Revenue Bureau's worst headaches. Indiana has an estimated 1300 gamblers, according to latest check through income tax channels. Only slightly more than 500 of them have purchased $50 tax stamps. This leaves big question mark on about 800 ‘other known gamblers in the state. Are they still in gambling rackets? Or did they quit before the Nov. 1 deadline of new law? : Internal Revénue Bureau gave the gamblers 30 days’ grace to Dec. 1 to get. their

stamps before actual enforce-

ment. It has been nine days since that deadline and no enforcement work has heen started. Agents say they don't have near enough personnel even to make a start. How will they go about enforcement? - This problem has not been solved. i Agents may have to wait until gamblers are convicted fn state courts, then checks. to see if they had purchased the stamps before date of arrest. Otherwise they would have to investigate each known gambler around the clock to see if he was engaged in gaming that requires a U. 8. stamp. Meanwhile, bigger operators

' are reorganizing their partner-

ships possibly to throw local law. enforcement officials off track. H & 8 Club, operator of large lottéry pool here, filed papers at Courthouse, dissolving its partnership obviously in move to reorganize under new sponsorship such as non-profit fraternity exempt from stamp law, Look for new type of gambling roundup here under combined operations of Prosecutor Frank Fairchild, Sheriff Dan Smith and City Police Department. “There'll be spme surprises,” quipped Prosecutor Fairchild.
