 US. ARMY,
 ARRESTED
Just Discharged After Eight Year : Is Charged
 with Treason


 l NEW YORK, Sept. 3.--tR-Hand- some, 33-year-old John David Pro-
 voo-just discharged from eight years in the Army--was in jail to-
 day on charges of betraying his country to Japan during wartime. l An ex-sergeant, Provoo allegedly
 volunteered his services to Japa- nese military commanders after his capture on Corregidor in 1922 Federal authorities said he work ] ed for the wartime enemy for
 three years as propagandist an
 inquisitor of American prisoners and in other roles. His arrest yesterday on treason
 warrant, just a few minutes after he had shed his army uniform, ap- parently surprised him. This is the first I've heard of this," he said.
 The tall, dark haired Provoo, a native of California and one-time student of oriental philosophy, al-
 legedly worked with Tokyo Rose" in broadcasting Japanese propagan- da to U. s. troops At the time Corregidor fell to Japan, he allegedly changed from his U. s. Army uniform to the robes of Buddhist priest hoping by this means to curry favor With the Japanese.
 U. s. Attorney John F. K Me- Gohey and his chief assistant, Irv- ing H. Saypol, gave this account of the case:
 Before the war, Provoo worked
 in the Federal Reserve Bank in San Francisco, where he had good record. He made one or more trips to Japan ostensibly to study the Japanese language and the Budd- hist religion.
 He entered the army in May, 1941. Sent to the Philippines, he
 was on Corregidor when the Rock fell to Japan in 1922. He presented himself to the Japa-
 nese in the vestments of Budd- hist priest. He did not seek to pretend he was a priest. Saypol said, but sought only to show his familiarity with Oriental life and language.
 After offering his services, he was used by the Japanese to guard other prisoners, and to aid in ques- tioning them, among other things" Saypol said The attorney did not elaborate.

vAUGHANT0 BE RECALLED
 A5 WITNESS
New Evidence Is Reported Discovered in Case of
 Five PerCenters
(By John Chadwick

WASHINGTON. Sept. s.-tR-- Two Senate Republicans investi- gating five percenters said today they expect Mat Gen. Harry H vaughan's recall for questioning on new evidence being dug up.
 Vaughan. President Truman's military aide. underwent a rigorous two-day examination by the inves- tigating committee earlier this week. The hearings now are in re- cess-probably for month or so.
 Senator Mccarthy (R-Wis) told reporters that he feels sure that Vaughan will be asked to take the spotlighted witness chair again. and Senator Mundt (R-SD) termed his reappearance very probable"
 Both based their statements on new leads being run down hy com- mittee investigators. They said the probe into the activities of the capitals five percenters, men ob- taining government business for third parties for fee, has just begun.
 The committee is trying to learn the extent of any influence ex- erted by the five percenters on top government officials.
 Some entirely new cases are be- ing opened by tips pouring in on committee members, Mundt said. He forecast that before the hear ings are closed "it will be demons trated that the influence racket in Washington is greater than ex- pected."
 He also predicted that subsequent hearings will show other instances of persons using White House contacts to advance their interests"
 Vaughan in his testimony before the committee readily acknowledged that he had lent helping hand to friends in their dealings with the government, but denied doing anything wrong.
 He said he had never sought, re- ceived or expected any fees or other remuneration for his favors.

STATE POLICE ARE
 ORDERED OUT FOR
 ROBSON CONCERT

ALBANY. N.s., Sept. 3-tRL- Governor Thomas E. Dewey today ordered "all available state police" into the Peekskill area tomorrow to prevent disorder at what he called a 'pro-C Communist meeting" at Paul Robeson concert tomorrow after neon.
 The Governors action came shortly before a Federal Judge in New York City refused to act on an application seeking to restrain veterans from staging a protest parade against the recital.
 The performance is scheduled to be held only mile from the spot where demonstrating veterans pre- vented Noheson from appearing last Saturday A bloody riot ensued and eight persons were injured.
 Federal Judge John w. Clancy ruled that his court had no authority to grant an injunction against the parade. The restraining order was sought by the self-styled "Westchester committee for law and order" sponsors of the con- cert.
 The Governor said he ordered the extra troopers at the request of tho Westchester county sheriff, Fred w. Ruscoe.

ENGLISH SURVIVORS
 SEEK KNOWLEDGE ON .SC0TTY JENNINGS

At 7:30 Wednesday morning, Roy Morrod and his sister, Miss Dorothy Morrod, boarded an airplane at the Croyden airport near London, Eng Ian.
 At 2:3O yesterday afternoon, they stepped out of the Pan Ameri- can airplane at the Juneau Air port. Their only stops had been in New York and Seattle two hours there).
 The Britons are here on sad but sentimental journey, to put up a suitable memorial marking the grave of thefr uncle, and to settle his estate.
 Their uncle was Arthur Jennings, known as Scotty, a longtime resi- dent of Sitka, where Morrod and his sister will go Monday, planning to remain some time in Scotty' $ home.
 Jennings died in St. Ann's Hos pital late in June, and was buried in Evergreen Cemetery here. He had no relatives this side of Eng land, Morrod said this morning.
 We have heard so much about Alaska from him." Morrod said, that already we feel quite at home.
 We hope to meet the people who knew Scotty Ihest," he added, ito learn as much as we can about his life here.
 Our uncle came to Alaska shortly after the Boer War, when he was about 18, and he was a pioneer in the gold rush about 40 years ago. He was 69 years old when he died. He had never been home in all that time"
 Scotty Jennings had been in the i ship-building and repair business in Sitka, where he lived until taken ill and brought to Juneau. He passed away few days later. Dorothy was his only niece, " commented Morrod, and she was a great favorite with him. She used to pass on his descriptions of the country and his adventures, as he wrote them, perhaps adding little because his letters were on the brief side" M Morrod served for nearly six years with the Royal Navy. most of that time being stationed in Malaga and other places in the Middle East.
 Morrod and his sister, whose home is in Bedford, about 50 miles from London, are guests at the Baranof Hotel, where they hope any friends of their uncle will call them.
