Defends Military Aide Against Attacks Smart

WASHINGTON, Feo. 23.--tR- Critics of his administration had personal and blunt notice today from President Truman that no
 so B." is going to influence his appointments.
 Some 200 persons-members Of the Reserve Officers Association ana their wives-heard MT. Truman de- liver that startling pronouncement in an earthly, matter-of-fact, im- promptu talk last night at am ner honoring Maj. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan, his military aide
 The diners were brought to sharp attention as MT Truman departed from his honey, neighborly style and turned to artillery language:
 Nov, I am just as fond and just as loyal to my military aide as l am to the high brass, and want you to distinctly understand that any SOB who thinks he can cause any of those people to be discharged by me, by some smart aleck statement over the air or in the paper, he has got another think coming.
 No commentator or columnist names any members of my cabinet. or my staff. I name them my self, and when it is time for them to be moved on. I do the moving, IT nobody else.''
 TONED DOWN The official transcript of Mr Truman's off-the-cuff talk, re- leased later by the White House, omitted any reference to the term. "S. o. B." Drew Pearson, radio , commentator and columnist, has criticized Vaughan for accepting a decoration from President Peron of ! Argentina.
 He stood outside the Argentine embassy the night the medal was presented, taking down the names oi 
 those attending.
 l Afterward. Pearson said that while 1 this country is spending billions asroad to help democracy, ana while President Truman has spok-
 en thousands of words about saving i democracy, his military aide partly nullified this falkland money by accepting a high decoration from
 a military dictator who has ridi- culed all the things that Truman talks about
 1 MT. Truman made no reference ito Pearson in his brief talk. The columnist had this comment: If MT. Truman is trying to dis- courage the right of fair comment, then he, too, has another thlnK coming
