 Adion buf Sister
 To Dance as ? Planned

MACON, Ga, June l3.-Eighteen- year-old Frances Newman will get her birthday dance. the beautiful orchid and the lovely evening dress tonight even if the older brother who promised them to her won't be on hand.
 The brother, Sgt James R. New man of Lumpkin. Ga, was killed by Jap shell in Iwo's front lines while acting as naval gunfire spotter for the Fourth Marine Division.
 The party in her honor will be put on by her fellow employees at Warner Robins Field here and she'll dance in an evening gown and an orchid corsage sent her by the Gen eral who commanded Sgt. Newmans outfit and his Marine buddies.
 It all came about because of a letter she wrote to Major Gen. Cliff ton B. Gates, Commander of her brothers division. saying she was going to keep her chin up because she knew that if her brother had to die, he would have wanted to die a Marine.
 He told me when my eighteenth birthday came around she wrote the General, that he would be home on furlough the never did get one) and he would buy me beau tiful orchid, lovely evening dress and take me dancing just as if were his best girl.'
 General Gates wrote that her let ter was the most beautiful he had received in over 28 years In the Marine Corps.
 You are very brave young lady" he said

The W Washington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON It. Col. Robert s. Allen now on active service with the Army.)

WASHINGTON-S time ago, this column told how the Nazis had sent out a propaganda broadcast to the European war theatre claim ing that Colonel John Hay Jock Whitney, husband of the ex-Mrs. Jimmy Roosevelt and a close friend of Harry Hopkins, had been critical of President Roosevelt while in a German prison camp.
 The Nazi radio, as described in the column, told how Jock Whitney first refused to talk, later was placed with a German posing as British officer, at which time he loosened up and, according to the Nazis, was critical of the Presi- dent. The Nazis used this to try to show how politics permeated the U. s. Army.
 Colonel Whitney later managed to escape from the German prison camp, when the box car in which he was riding was bombed and wrecked. He has since written this columnist letter denying that he ever criticized the President, and has also set forth the interesting circumstances surrounding his cap- ture.
 In fairness to Colonel Whitney, whom this columnist holds in the highest esteem, the pertinent por- tions of his very interesting letter are published below, together with a transcript of the Nazi broadcast

TOTAL VETO CONTROL E
 GIVEN 0kEH
Australian Amendment Is Defeated as Big Confer
 ente Moves 10 Close
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER Associated Press Diplomatic News Editor)

Associated Press Diplomatic News Editor)
 SAN FRANCISCO, June 13.-De- feat of an Australian amendment cleared the way today for approval in United Nations conference committee of the Big Five demand for total veto control of proposed machinery for world security.
 The amendment, which would have removed the veto from steps to settle international disputes peacefully and limited 1t to use of force. was voted down 20 to 10 Fifteen nations abstained and five were absent.
 New Issue
 Simultaneously a new issue ap- peared to be gaining headway. The small nations, whose split over the veto issue assured the big-power victory, were beginning to rally be- hind proposal that they should be promised another crack at the veto about 10 years hence,
 In other words, they are calling for the right to amend the charter in future without any of the big powers being able to exercise a veto over amendments. The Big Five are dead set against this.
 Action on the Australian amend ment came last midnight after three and half hours of debate, during which F speeches were made.

 GUAM, June 13. = Cliff-scaling Americans, backed by tanks spit ting flames from a 500-foot- -long hose hauled up the slopes, held grimly today to newly-won heights outflanking the Yaeju escarpment defenses of the Japanese on South ern Okinawa
 As this new peril was posed against the 10000 to 15,000 no-sur- render Nipponese, Tokyo turned its back on these defenders of soil within 325 miles of Japan.
 The enemy radio, instead, switch ed it's theme to the menace of a homeland invasion. It quoted the Nippon Times as saying Japan will defend herself unflinchingly and unshakably ]. as long as her very existence and her sacred ideals are threatened"

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Presi- dent Truman wants the United Nations charter for a peace or ganization ratified by the Senate before Congress takes recess.
 Officials in a position to know said the Chief Executive has told Congressional leaders he feels ac- tion should be taken as quickly as possible after the San Francisco conference drafts a document for submission to the 50 participating nations.
 MT Truman was described as of the opinion that delay would work to the advantage of opponents of Amesacan participation by giving them time to build up sentiment against it.
 This White House attitude vir- tually ruled out the possibility of summer holiday for the legis- lators.
