take a lot of political repair work to patch up.
 Vaughan has become buddy of the famous Negro aviator, Colon el' Hubert Fauntleroy Julian, who describes himself as the Black Eagle" and who, during the Ethio- plan War, was Emperor Halle Se- lassie's one-man air corps.
 Apparently trying to win the Ne gro vote (though it's already strong behind Truman) Vaughan sent Colonel" Julian to Europe to in- spect Negro troops partly at the Governments expense.
 Arriving in Europe with an ad- vance buildup by General Vraugh- an, Julian was given the VIP treatment tVery Important Per sons). He toured the entire Ameri- can zone of Germany as the guest of the Army, was given military aide, and spent an hour with Gen. Oldy Ol lliC DuoiCot iiiCii III the world s
 But the Army brass hats were in for a rude shock They found that Colonel" Julian had interests other than the treatment of Negro troops. He was also using the prestige given him by the White House Military Aide to promote a cigarette deal.
 In fact, Julian told the Army that he and his packers were will ing to do Uncle Sam a great fav- or-namely, replace all of the Ar my's over-age cigarettes tvalued at $11 1,000 000) at the rate of one fresh carton for every two stale cartons.
 The deal would have netted Jul ian and his friends about $5000,- O0O When General Clay heard ahout it, the Black Eagle was soon eagling his way back to the USA- shorn of his VIP treatment.
 Note Republican leaders say they get down on their knees ev- cry night and pray that Truman will not transfer Harry Vaughan before Election Day.

COAST GUARD HEADQUARTERS
 FOR JUNEAU

With the announcement that the l7th Coast Guard District is be re-establshed in Alaska July l. l949 hopes rise again that Juneau may be selected as Coast Guard headquarters
 Before any consideration be given our town as Coast Guard Headquarters approximately 10000 square feet of office space is required or say, two floors of a building 100 feet by 100
 Housing for estimated staff of 80 people Is another consideration, that faces Juneau. Chamber of Commerce Seoretry Fred Easaugh says. Working with It. Condr Edward Chester Eastaugh has reached estimates that indicate the need Of 30 to 4e amliy unts apartments houses, of varying size
 Charles Goldstein who recently announced his plans to erect new building on Front Street between Seward and Main has told the Champer of Commerce that should the Coast Guard express interest m Juneau as headquarters he will finish 2oOo0 feet Of his proposed building to Coast Guard specifications.
 The Chamber of Commerce Housing committee is working on plans for rental housing
 Juneau of course feels that it is the logical oca- tion for the Coast Guard Our location is more central than that of Ketchikan, Juneaus chlef contender for an Alaska Coast Guard headquarters
 That Juneau is the capital of Alaska is another obvious reason in it's favor the Coast Guards nome port
 But there is lot to be done before we can hope for the nod of Coast Guard heads in our direction
 we must have housing program, Mayor Walno tJendrckson has said ito balance the office building manned by Mir Goldstein. Even without the con- templated Coast Guard headquarters, Juneau neeos housing and with the possibility of Juneau securing Coast Guard headquarters, would say we need ioo housing units at once" Qn spite of Juneaus great need for housing, the Mayor, who has investigated the matter believes town is not as short o places to live as other towns in Aaska0
 Plans are in the making whereby cheap financing for rental housing might be obtained under Sec1ion If the Nat Housing
 There are many ifs" involved in any talk about , ho,oncad b,,ildnp program for Juneau If" we get the Coast Guard. If" get pulp mill
 Granted before important money-important TOT Juneau-s invested in office buildings or housing, there should be some assurance of it's need

To William Prim, son-in-law of North Carolina's late Senator Bailey, Johnson gave tough bawl- ing-out.

 Ambassador Pawley amazed his colleagues by telling how he had walked into Democratic Headquart- CTS and told one of the lady money raiserS:
 T want to give five. Will you please write out check for me?
 Naturally, I meant five grand, 7 explained Pawley later. So ina zine my surprise when the young lady writes out a check for S5. No more, no less"
 This caused Johnson to jump down the throat of another chair warmer, Asa Caraway, son of Ar kansas ex-Senator Hattie Cara way
 This kind of thing has got to stop" he told Caraway, who was considered responsible for the lady money-raisers Either it's going to stop-or you get out"
 Johnson also proceeded to raise the Democratic money-raising goal from the sl,50O,0O0 which had been fixed by McGrath to S2,500,- GOO.

TRUMAN ACQUIRES PATHOs

Last week, however, money raising campaign was launched at the White House. MT. Truman invited about 30 top Democrats for tea. from California's Ed Pauley to New York's Morris Ernst. Af- ter the tea, he got up on char and made a little speech.
 T am appealing to you for help' he said, help to carry my message to the American people. We Just haven't got the money to buy ra- dio time. In Detroit on Laoor Day. we had to cut out one of the most important parts of my speech because we didn't have the money to stay on the air
 MT. Truman looked pathetic ana alone. He looked so appealing that those present forgot how many of them had opposed his re- nomination, how many had pre- dicted that no money could be raised if he were nominated. They even forgot Truman's dog-in-the- manager attitude at Philadelphia.
 However, a special finance com mittee met, including St. Pauls Robert Butler. Ambassador to Cuba Cleveland's Joe Keenan, War Crimes Prosecutor in Japan; West Virginia's Louis Johnson, former Assistant Secretary of War; Cal.fornias George Killion. presi- dent of the American President

didate was making no disclosure. "
In a telegram to Mr.. Stassen,
Mr.. Pauley declared:
Instead of openly admitting that
it was I, not you, who had disclosed
this figure and that you were
simply reading from the certified
figures which I had voluntarily sub
mitted and which had been handed
you for your use before and during
your appearance before the COM
mittee, you attempted to mislead the
public by making it appear you
made a discovery and were making
disclosure"
when you return before the
committee, if you do, I intend to
prove where you falsified again and
again and to expose you," Mr.. Pau
ley concluded.
Mr.. Pauley has asked for the right
to confront Mr.. Stassen at another
