JUNE 11, 1950 MONROE (LA.) MORNING WORLD DIARY REVEALS (Continued from Firet Page) moving government documents 11- legally. The Star's story, which observed that Forrestal acted "from the highest motives," broke as senators buzzed with suggestions for getting access to his diary. They sought possible clues to the origin of the go-slow proposal in the controversial Amerasia case. Forrestal's diary is locked up I in the White House where it has remained since he died last. year in a plunge from an upper window of Naval Hospital here.

He then was secretary of defense. The Star said its information came from "diary notes among Mr. Forrestal's papers in New York." It added that the data is expected to be made available Monday to the senate foreign relations subcommittee investigating the Amerasia case. This inquiry concerns the question whether the justice department was diligent in handling the case in view of the outcome. Officials testified that the prosecution collapsed because evidence was illegally obtained.

Some critics dispute this point. The subcommittee is investigating the Amerasia case as an outgrowth of charges by Senator McCarthy that the state department is under Communist influences. He asserted that the Amerasia episode is the key to a Red network in the government. The investigators only this week were working on the mystery on which the Star's story shed new light. The diary notes showed, the Star said, "that Mr.

Forrestal act- ed the case after being informed on Monday, May 28, 1945, by one of his special assistants, Maj. Mathias F. Correa, that arrests were scheduled to be made two days later, including a lieutenant in naval intelligence." This reference was to Andrew Roth, who was assigned as a liason man with the state department. Roth was one of the three indicted in the case, but the charge against him was dropped. The two who paid fines were Philip Jacob Jaffe, the magazine's editor, and Emmanuel Sigurd Larsen, then a state department employe.

Another state department employe, John S. Service, was never indicted. McCarthy has attacked him as pro Communist. Service and the state department have denied it. Service is still with the department as a diplomatic officethe Forrestal diary, in its May 28 entry, was quoted as relating: "Maj.

Correa reported to me that the department of justice had evidence to the effect that Lt. Andrew Roth had been furnishing confidential and secret documents to a man named Jaffe, head of a publication named Amerasia in New York City. Jaffe has had intimate relationships with the Russian consul in New York. departments of the government involved are the office of strategic services, the state department and the foreign economic administration. "Maj.

Correa reported that it was proposed that Lt. Roth should be taken into surveillance Wednesday. He said the FBI thought that unless speedy action were taken important evidence would be dissipated, lost and destroyed. "I pointed out that the inevitable course of such action now would be to greatly embarrass the president now in his current conversations with Stalin because of the antiRussian playup the incident would receive out of all proportions to its importance. "I asked Capt.

Vardaman to see to it that the president was informed in the matter and I then called Mr. Edgar Hoover and suggested that he advise Mr. Tom Clark (then attorney general) and have him also see that the president is in full. information of all the facts in the matter as well as their RUSSIANS ACCUSE (Continued from First Page) be en route to headquaretrs there. Gen.

Chuikov said Capt. Tuynila and Sgt. Smirnov, both members of the Soviet repatriations mission in the French zone, were injured in a collision with a German car while they were traveling through the berg Sunday American en zone route near to French Nuern- headquarters in Baden-Baden. He complained that both were not a given the necessary aid by American military police arriving at the scene. On the contrary, he said, the military police "forcibly them and "brutally maltreated the seriously injured Capt.

Tuynila by dislocating his arm and kicking him on the chest and groin." A German doctor from the Pegnitz was forbidden to Russians, he added. Moreover, the general wrote, American authorities had not permitted the chief of the Soviet military mission in the American zone to visit the men in hospital. From all this, Chuikov con- Friendly, Courteous Service always at Silverstein's. Vacationland NOTES A.

OFFICIALS MOVE (Continued from First Page) with MacArthur. Their trip was announced first, in fact, and there has been some speculation that Dulles' decision to go about the same time was prompted by the desire of the state department high command to share in the development of any policy idea which MacArthur, Johnson and Bradley might evolve. At the moment the situation 1 is badly tangled up. MacArthur probably comes nearer holding the key to it than any of the other participants in the Tokyo talks because of his prestige and experience in the field of Far Eastern policy. The views of the supreme commander for the allied occupation.

therefore, will have a great, perhaps decisive effect on what Johnson, Bradley and Dulles advocate in the way of U. S. government action when they get back to Washington. Persons here who are familiar with MacArthur's views all agree that he believes the occupation must soon be brought to an end lest it become unpopular in Japan and therefore useless, even harmful, to United States interests. He has generally favored a peace treaty as the way to end the occu -pation.

One of the questions on which responsibile officials however, here is say this: they Does MacArthur believe that once the peace settlement has been made the United States should still retain bases in Japan as a front line position in the cold war with Russia? Best informed officials say they are not certain exactly what MacArthur means on this point. That unquestionably is one question which both Johnson and Dulles will want him to answer. The state and defense department have differed over when occupation should be ended (state says as soon as possible). But they have agreed on the principle that even though a peace treaty could be written very quickly American troops would have to remain in Japan for a long time as defense forces against Russia. The state department is already applying a parallel policy in Germany.

The London meeting of western foreign ministers last month was followed by an effort to begin shifting western troops in Germany from an occupation to a defense status. It is in another parallel between the German and Japanese situations that talk of a Pacific defense pact, roughly similar to the North Atlantic alliance of America and western Europe, comes up. Th assumption of American officials is that in Japan as in Germany it will be impossible to make a peace treaty with Russia. Now also there is the problem of Communist China which Britain recognizes and the United States does not. No one seems to know quite where it should fit into the picture.

At the same time, MacArthur and the state department strongly feel that something has to be done to end the occupation. If all the issues in settling a war can not be wrapped up in a single document such as the peace treaty then perhaps they can be settled separately. That is the thinking to an alternative course which might be followed. JAP CRACKS DOWN (Continued from First Page) and cannon fodder." The broadcast was recorded by the Associated Press at San Francisco. (Peiping earlier called his purge of the 24 members of the Communist party's central committee and 17 editors of Akahata "as absurd as it is reactionary." It called for "counterblows" from the people.) A second purported assassination plot against MacArthur within 10 days was reported and again dismissed by key U.

S. officials as a fake. They said a letter was intercepted two days ago containing a vague reference to a plan to kill the occupation commander. They considered it the work of a crank and have taken no extra precautions. A Japanese was arrested June 1 after repeating details of a purported assassination plot.

He has been sent to a hospital for the insance. The Japanese government so far has taken no steps to outlaw the Communist party, as one official last week said it had agreed to do. Instead the emphasis appeared to be on the other measures. Education Minister Telyu Amano announced that action' would be taken against the "radical student Students have been active in support of Communist rallies and strikes. Government circles indicated Amano would try to dissolve the Communist dominated national federation of students self-government organizations.

Police headquarters in a conference with investigation and security section chiefs from Tokyo's 73 police stations ordered an intensive campaign against the spread of anti-occupation propaganda. Police already have forbidden mass demonstrations and subordinates were told to see that the ban was enforced. In continuing raids today, police arrested Hidetaro Ikeda, head of one of the city's Communist cells. He is suspected of violating the imperial ordinance forbidding criticism of the occupation. POLICE INTERCEPT (Continued from First Page) burglars," Toledo Health Commissioner Walter Hartung told police.

Later State Highway Patrolman P. E. Wolf intercepted the Mitchell car at Waldo, South of Marion, and escorted it here. Manager Clen Wyble of the Hiawatha Carnival Co. told Toledo police the Mitchells hastily left the showgrounds with Stanley and their other children yesterday.

He described the family as Gypsies and said they had been with the carnival about five weeks. The couple first took Stanley to Riverside Hospital in Toledo yesterday and asked for medicine for his upset stomach. A hospital physician told them the boy had meningitis and should have laboratory tests. The parents left immediately. Later they took the boy to a physician's office there.

The doctor telephoned Dr. Hartung to report the case and the family again disappeared. Nothing was heard of them again until Patrolman Wolf spotted their car on the highway. JES' RAMBLIN' (Continued from First Page) well. For example, Dean Rodney Cline left yesterday for Nashville, where he will be a member of the summer faculty of Peabody College from June 12 to July 14.

He will instruct in two courses, "Methods of College Teaching" and "The College Dean." From Peabody, Dean Cline will go to Harvard University July 17 to remain until August 12. There he will work in and with the Junior College workshop sponsored by the university. The project will be directed by Jesse Bogue, executive secretary of the American Association of junior colleges. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together junior college teachers, administrators and future administrators to study problems, methods and philosophy of education suitable for schools of this type.

A meeting of the white playground leaders will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 and one for colored at 3:00 at the Recreation Center.

Mrs. Peggy Garnett will serve as handcraft instructor for the various playgrounds. Cecil Johnson, a student at La. Tech. will be athletic director for the various athletic leagues and assist on the playgrounds.

A variety of programs will be offered for the children this year and parents are urged to send them to the nearest playground. Special activities, such as, Hobby shows, bicycle contests, ping pong, checkers, field meet, Joseph E. Lee Day, croquet contest, marble contest, horse shoe contest and many other features are planned. In addition to the names that appeared in this column of graduates at Tulane University this week, the following also are now listed: A. Montgomery, son of Mr.

Wimbish, and also from Rayville, Watten H. Hunt, third, a nephew of Mrs. Gunby of Monroe. Ann Sartain, of Shreveport, a former Monroe young woman, also was graduated from Sophia Newcomb. GOLD SLATED (Continued from First Page) cuses Gold of performing 11 missions for Russia's agents.

On four of these missions, it is alleged, Gold collected information from Dr. Fuchs and turned them over to the Reds. Dr. Fuchs now is serving a 14-year prison term in England. McGranery conferred with Gold recently--at the Chemist's suggestion.

The jurist told newsmen that Gold intended to plead but "not to the charge of meaning to hurt the United The plea of guilty, McGranery quoted Gold as saying, would include only the acts of delivering the atom bomb secrets to a Soviet spy or spies. Since his arrest Gold has cooperated with the FBI and McGranery said the chemist wants to continue cooperating. McGranery named Hamilton to defend Gold after the defendant had specifically requested appointment of counsel "whose patriotism is unimpeachable." Hamilton accepted the assignment after consulting with Gold on grounds he considered it part of his obligation as a member of the bar. Gold's father and brother have stood behind the chemist. They told newsmen they are not defending the spy activities attributed to Harry but are aiding him because of family ties.

Samuel Gold, 70, told newsmen "my son is not a Communist. If he did anything, he was only trying to help Russia become strong like America. "In 1945 we were allies with the Russians and my son had a deep sympathy for the poor people of that nation where I was born. Then when the Russians started to move away from the world in 1946 he had nothing to do with them." Gold is accused of delivering the atom secrets in 1944 and 1945 before world war II had ended. HALF AMERICANS (Continued from First Page) able information about population, housing, agriculture, industry, business, resources and needs.

Thomas F. Corcoran, chief of consulation and training of the office of the coordinator, also said the census will be of help in planning President Truman's point four program of aid to underdeveloped areas. All countries are taking a population count. Almost all are also taking inventory on agriculture and housing, the majority for the first time. Others are taking a check on matters of pecullar importance to their areas.

In Guatemala, for example, the enumerators counted how many persons wore shoes. Enumerators from all the 22 American republics were trained in the U. S. SO the census could be standardized. PRES.

TRUMAN (Continued from First Page) tary of Defense Louis Johnson and Missouri Gov. Forrest Smith, too. But he didn't need to threaten either of them. They seemed to enjoy the marching a almost as much as Mr. Truman did.

Also marching with the President was Mayor Joseph M. Darst of St. Louis, a former 35th division infantryman. Virtually everybody was pretty well exhausted by the time the head marchers reached the reviewing except the 66-year-old President, that is. There wasn't a bead of perspiration on his cheeks, a wrinkle in his white suit.

Gov. Smith was puffing and panting. And so were many of the others. SOVIETS BLASTED (Continued from First Page) tion of Communist youth in East Berlin late last month. "In looking at the current world situation," Mr.

Truman declared, is plain that the present policies and activities of the Soviet government are not contributing peace." He added: to, 1. "The Soviet government is refusing to participate in the work of the United Nations. 2. "Representatives of the free nations are being forced out of the satellite countries. 3.

"'Soviet leaders are turning the school children of Eastern Germany into the same kind of pitiful robots that marched Into hopeless battle for Hitler. 4 "And at home, the Soviet reis maintaining the largest peacetime armed force in history, far greater that it needs for the defense of its own boundaries. "'The leaders of the Soviet Union, instead of using their resources to improve the well-being of their people, are devoting a massive share of those resources to the acquisition of further military strength." He made another sharp distinction between Russia's leaders and its people: "We have tried to dissuade the Soviet leaders from their militaristic course, so costly to their people and to ours, so antagonistic to the pursuit of peace. the war, we demobilized the bulk of our army, navy and air force. In the United Nations we put forward proposals to share with the world the development of atomic energy and to prevent the use of atomic bomb.

The president spoke confidently of the ability of free nations to take care of themselves. "These ominous activities of the Soviet Union, however," he put it, "are being offset by the growing strength of the free world. The free nations are making steady progress in creating more satisfactory conditions of life for their people, and stronger defenses against aggression." Camera Photographs 26 Miles In Seconds WASHINGTON, June camera that can photograph a 26- mile strip of the earth in two seconds from a plane flying at 10,000 feet has been developed by the air force. A sample picture made over Washington was released today. Mt.

Vernon was at one horizon; the Colesville, area dimly visible at the other. The air force said the camera is a special development for tests to determine its value in reconnaissance. Whether it will be installed in the new long range B-36 reconnaissance planes, and in faster but shorter ranged jet reconnaissance planes, was not disclosed. The air force estimated that the horizontal distance covered by the camera from 10,000 feet is 26 miles. "This distance can be increased by a corresponding elevation of the air craft," it added.

Father, Son Charged With Raping Negress ROME, June youth and the father of a child, both white, were charged today with luring a 17-year-old Negro girl away under a pretext of baby sitting and then raping her.

They were bound over to a Superior court grand jury at a hearing before Justice of Peace T. E. Edwards. The youth was charged also with molesting the girl's 15- year-old sister. The older girl told Justice Edwards 15-year-old Robert Camp came to her home Wednesday night and asked her to baby sit for Richard Patrick, 22, the other defendant.

She said she finally agreed to go to Patrick's home in Camp's car, accompanied by her younger sister. She and her sister testified that instead of going to Patrick's home, Camp drove out on a country road and parked. There they said, they found Patrick was hidden in the back seat. Both were threatened with death, they asserted, if they did not submit to the man and boy. Bond for Camp was set at $2,700 on charge of rape and taking immoral liberties with children.

Patrick, charged only with rape, was released under $2,500 bond. Deaths MRS. J. C. TANNER DELHI, June -Funeral services for Mrs.
