90 hite House officials said today
that all phases of evidence adduced

not passed on there because Of lack
Of jurisdiction would be gone into

or more high officials used official

" procured through use of money;
and that official government files
were turned over to persons not en-.
titled to them.
For the present no official will dis
cdss details of these charges nor
disclose in what direction the in
quiry may lead The development
has created a stir in official circles,
however, second only to that which
followed the oil disclosures.

Here's an intimate closeup of John

Major General Adelbert Ames, his
daily golfing partner and one of his
closest friends.
Few other men have had the op-

the winter practically every day
but Sunday-for the past eight
years.
"Mr. Rockefeller" says General
Ames, sis very amiable, very con-
scientious, and a very lovable man.
He has a conscience. He goes to
church and he carries out his re,
hgion in his life. He is the only
man L have ever known who fully
lives up to his church beliefs. 1
have never known another man like
him. He is a very fine man to
know and be with.
HE has a deep sense of humor
and is very entertaining. Here's a
story that he told me the other day
"a young girl, in her first love
aHalr, received her 11fSt KISS and,
much perturbed decided to confess
the fact to her mother. The mother
was much amused.
"'"Ah, only once?" she asked
raising an admonishinc finger. The
young girl was equal to the occa

".'T came to confess, not to
boast" she replied "
The general chuckled and went
on;

told to the senate today by Senator
Heflin, Democrat, Alabama.
''There is a story to the effect, -
Senator Hef1lin said, that the at.

clair, went to the race tracks and
bet money for cabinet members on
race horses and that the one Daugh-

over some money to Sinclair to bet
and that Sinclair came back with a
bunch of money and turned it over
to him and he divided it out and
said: These are our winnings And
then you talk about remaining 81
