nothing more" s~s1T
Declaring there was no connec-
ton between the freezers and any
aid he had given the donors. Gen.
Vaughan stated. - .Sssal, .s'l
y Atno time i1ayeI taken action
as member Of the White House
staff in exchange for q gift or
other favor"
The committee has been looking
for q link between the freezers
given by the Verley company and
Gen. Vaughan's interest in getting
passports and military transporta-
ton for Mr.. Maragon and other
employees and officials of that firm.
Gen. Vaughan argued that what
he did for the Verley company was
precisely" what he would have
done for any other firm in COM
parable circumstances.
Compiled With All Rules.
He said the Verley firm wanted
to- send its agents to Europe to
prepare for the postwar resump-
ton of business and such action
by American businessmen was
urged by the State Department
and has been part Of the Gov
ernment's ofdcial policy.
The company. he said. COM
piled with the State Departments
requirement for expediting busi-
ness trips to Europe and the
transportation priorities it re-
ceived corresponded with similar
facilities made available to many
business corporations during the
same period. ,. ~
AS for the Tanforan Race Track,
which the committee has been told
got a building permit after Gen.
Vaughan intervened, Gen. Vaughan
said that he had made two ap-
pointments with the Office Of the
Housing Expediter at the request
of MIR. Helis. He said he went to
Housing 'Expediter Woods ofl1ce to
introduce Mr.. Helis' associate. Eu-
gene Mori. and left shortly there
after.
"At no time" he declared, did
I attempt to influence the decision
Of these Government ofncials."
Gen. Vaughan told the commit
tee he had discharged his duties
honestly and to the best Of my
ability" He said he had followed
the practice Of extending help to
persons doing business with their
Government. but that in most
cases the persons he assisted were
not friends Of his.
After reading his prepared
statement. Gen. Vaughan was
asked the nature Of his associa-
ton. with Mr.. Hunt.
"It was mostly friendly, social
association" the witness replied.
II saw him a dozen times at
social functions and he came to
my office q number Of times.
Sometimes he was there to call
at (John) Steelman's ofice or
other Offices and Just dropped in
to say hello to me-"
Gen. Vaughan volunteered that
he had never known until the
inquiry started that Mr.. Hunt
had anything to do with Gen.
Waits memorandum to him.
II made the request of Gen.
Watt after discussing 1t with the
President, that he furnish me fac
tual data about eligible officers.
the general said. "I've done that
on occasions before. The Presi-
dent approves of that. Gen.
Watt furnished this material. 1t
never occurred to me that Gen.
Watt would not do this In his own
ohice or If not In his own ONCE
In his own home"
Gen. Vaughan explained tiaat
Evening star., 1949-08-30

II have given him assistance in
matters when. it appeared to be
entirely proper to do So"
Gen. Vaughan took up the, spe-
cific incidents about which the
committee has been told at length.
Doesn't Recall Molasses Deal.
OF the incident in which an
Agriculture Department official
said Gen. Vaughan got tough" II,
behalf Of getting molasses for q
suspended company, Gen. Vaughan
said most emphatically" he could
not concede that he made the
statements attributed to him by
Herbert c. Hathorn, the official.
II can only say that the
Hathorn tale is an out-and-out
fantasy insofar as it relates to
me-" Gen. Vaughan declared.
Whether there was a misunder-
standing by Mr.. Hathorn or
whether someone impersonated me
in q telephone conversation with
Mr.. Hathorn, I do not know"
He said he had no recollection
Of ever having heard of the Allied
Molasses Co., for whom witnesses
said he intervened, but he ack-
nowledged it was entirely pos
sible that I might have made a
telephone olll to the Department
Of Agriculture making an appoint
ment or addressing a routine in
quiry in q matter affecting the
company"
Doesn't Make Sense"
He continued:
Most emphatically, I cannot
concede that I made the state
ments attributed to me by Mr..
Herbert c. Hathorn who, inciden-
tally, is unknown to me.
1T just doesn't make sense that
I would suggest to Mr.. Hatlorn
or to any Government employe
that I would get his job If he re-
fused to grant a request which he
sincerely regarded as improper or
that I would be instrumental in
rewarding him for betraying his
public trust.
Il. therefore. must and do deny
that I urged Mr.. Hathorn to
adopt any particular course of &C.
ton in the matter Of Allied Mo-
lasses Co. or that I made any
threats to him"
Gen. Vaughan said he had
known Mr.. Hunt for about five
years; that the relationship had
been friendly, but that ito the best
of my recollection he has never
asked and I have never aided him
in any matter with a Government
agency"
Turning to the home freezers

is now facing possible perjury and
income tax envasion charges.
Doubts Error In Judgment.
r. Gen. vaughans~was asked by
Senator Mccarthy. If he would
have recommended Mr.. Maragon
for employment on a mission to
Greece if he had known what the
committee has brought out about
the Greek-American.
IF Mr.. Maragon has been
proven guilty Of wrong doings.
then I made an error in judg-
ment," the general replied.
But in answer to questions he
said he did not think 1t has been
proven, and as Of today he thinks
he would still recommend him for
the Greek mission.
Showed Watt Memo to Truman.
In one case, Gen. Vaughan
said the President did know what
Gen. Vaughan was doing. That
was the incident In which Gen.
Watt prepared the memorandum
containing derogatory comments
about fellow officers.
Gen. Vaughan said he asked
Gen. Watt to supply him with
~ frank expression" on all the
eligible officers, and he added:
IT told the President I was
going to ask for 1t and I showed
it to the President after I re-
ceived It,"
Gen. Vaughan added, however,
that he did not know Gen. Watt
prepared the memorandum in the
Office Of James v. Hunt, hospital
lied management counselor, who
has been q key figure in the five
percenter" inquiry.
Nothing to Explain Gifts.
Under questioning. Gen.
Vaughan said he knew nothing
until much later about the Incl
dent in which Mr.. Maragon tried
to get perfume oils through Gus
toms without clearing them. He
said when Mr.. Maragon told him
about it, Mr.. Maragon described
it as entirely q misunderstand-
ing" and told him it had been
completely settled. .
When Gen. Vaughan was asked
specifically If there were any busi-
ness pending at the time which
might have accounted Tor the gift
of home freezers to Gen. Vaughan,
Mrs. Truman and other Washing
ton notables in 1945 and 1916, Gen.
Vaughan replied:
| II can't think of any reason at
ALL"
AS for his earlier statement that
the freezers, donated by the per-
fume firm Of Albert Verley Co..
were factory rejects" Gen
Vaughan said he had that i'm
Ipression.
Maragon Didn't Represent Him
In the prepared statement he
read to the committee, Gen
i Vaughan said:
"At no time have I tried te
cause q Government official te
take any action which he did not
consider proper and in the best
interests of the Government"
), As for Mr.. Maragon. with whom
witnesses repeatedly have linked
his name, Gen. Vaughan said hi
had had no business connections
J with Mr.. Maragon and never au.
. thorized him to represent Gen
. Vaughan or the White House ''ir
any matter pertaining to my
duties" ~,
Gen. Va han acknowledged

rupted. I'D like to know how he
gets into this. If any contribu-
tion had come from such q man
I certainly would have remem-
bered it,"
Gen. Vaughan admitted that
the contributions were received
at about the time he had inter-
ceded for the race track repre-
sentatives in an effort Ito ex-
pedite" . decision one way or
the other. He denied he had tried
to influence this decision, but
only sought an early answer.
Found Maragon Using Phone.
The witness related that on one
occasion he came into his office
at the White House and found
Maragon in the anteroom. Just
then the phone rang. he said, and
his secretary handed the phone
to Maragon. He demanded te
know what went on. Gen
Vaughan said, and the secretary
replied that John had made I
Selephone call and the call wa
being returned"
II reprimanded him." Gen
Vaughan continued, "and told hin
that such practices would be dis
continued as Of that date. Johl
had some sort Of plausible excuse.
"Did the reprimand stop hin
from coming to your ofice?" Sen
ator Mccarthy asked.
The crowd in the densely packe'
hearing room roared when tn
general snapped back:
"oh no. he don't repriman'
easy!"
The general said that as Tar a
he knew Maragon might nav
made similar calls from Whit
House telephone on previous oc
easions. III
