Landover Family Of {
Escapes Suffocation
After Gas FeIIs Girl

Eight members of a Landovei
MD family escaped probable
asphyxiation from coal gas early
today when they became aroused
after one of the children stumbled
into her parents bedroom and
collapsed.
They are Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Compton and their six children
who occupy a five-room bungalow
at 6508 Annapolis road.
Mrs. Ruth Compton, 33, said
she was awakened when her IT.
year-old daughter, Doris, fell on
her bedroom floor. Doris, who
slept in a rear room with Ronald,
8, had been awakened by the boy
who complained of feeling i'll.
Ronald asked for soda and Doris
went to the kitchen, where she
collapsed. She regained conscious
ness long enough to stumble into
her parents bedroom.
Mrs. Compton opened the win
dows and doors, reused her hus-
band and Joan Marie, 4, and put
Doris on her bed. Two other sons,
Billie, IL, and Bobbie, IA, were
led from the living room divan to
the front porch. Sharon, 3, sleep
ing in crib in Mrs. Compton's
room. apparently was not affected.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Compton, SO, a
warehouse supervisor at the Hud-
son Supply Co., had telephoned
for aid.
The Bladensburg rescue squad
responded and administered oxy-
gen to the children. All but Ron
aid and Billie had recovered by
this afternoon. The two boys are
not seriously i'll, the mother said
Mrs. Compton said their coal
burning furnace had been banked
about 1890 o'clock last night by
Mr.. Compton, but that, unknown
to him, a damper in the fue pipe
had been closed. Firemen told
her, she said, that this caused
fumes to back up in the furnace
and escape into the house.

Royal and Rayburn Urge
Party Boilers 10 Return
By the Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 25.-Two
Democratic leaders last night in
vited Southerners who bolted the
party to come back into the fold.
In a speech here to Democrats
attending a Jackson-Jefferson
Day dinner, Army Secretary
Royal called for unity among the
leaders and the rank and file OF
the Democratic Party.
The party's Southern wing dis
jointed last fall by the States
Rights movement.
| Secretary Royal. speaking as a
Southern Democrat and not as
Secretary Of the Army" expressed
hope that all members Of the
Democratic Party will compose
their differences and unite in an
undivided and confident Democ-
racy."
The Army Secretary did not
mention the boiling States
Fighters by name, but said he be-
lieved the political rift in the party
would soon disappear.
Meanwhile, at Nashville. Tenn,
Speaker Rayburn declared there
is enough room in the tent for all
to come back into the fold"
The Texans invitation to the
States Fighters was also issued at
q Jackson-Jefferson dinner.

world depends on our ability to
master that problem
In both of his talks, the Presi-
dent expressed the conviction that
the American people are behind
the Democratic platform and want
it put into effect.
This same theme also was
stressed by other speakers.
Senator McGrath of Rhode
Island, chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, told
the Mayfower diners that victory
will not be achieved until we have
fulfilled our promises to the Amer
lean people and carried forward to
full accomplishment the programs
of the Democratic Party for social
progress in fields of health and
welfare and economic victory over
our ancient enemies of boom and
bust and all the forces that bring
them about"
Mrs. Edwards Speaks.
Speaking at the Statler, Mrs.
India Edwards, executive director
of the Womens Division of the
National Committee. asserted that
the distaf voters ARE going to re-
member which legislators help
President Truman carry out his
campaign promises to give all the
people a fair deal.
And they also will remember
any legislators who do not support
President Truman.
Secretary of Labor Tobin and
Mrs. Perle Mesta of Washington
also were on the speaking pro-
gram.
A cold kept Mrs. Truman away

Gen. Vaughan apparently was
miSquoted, or misunderstood,
when a morning paper reported
he had described the proposed in

A number of people shared this
opinion, but if Mr.. Truman was

resemblance to the new Army
Harry Vaughan served in France
with the 155-mm howitzers Of the
13Oth Field Artillery, returning 6
captain, while Harry Truman came
back a major after fighting with
the 129th. Both had served
through the major campaigns.
Capt. Vaughan remained active
in the Reserves after returning
to civilian life in st. Louis. He
Was a plant manager, salesman
and railroad inspector. The Cen
eral took his first fling at politics
in 1910, when he became treasur-
er of his friends campaign fund
for reelection to the Senate.
| Funds were short, so Harry
Vaughan put up $50 for 11a-cent
postcards, which he dispatched
with requests for dollar contri-
buttons. He kept rolling up the
returns until he raised $4,000 for
the successful campaign which
followed.
In January of 1941 he came to
Washington as Senator Truman's
secretary.
Injured In Plane Crash.
Soon after the outbreak of the
war, he returned to a Field Artil-
lery outfit as lieutenant colonel.
Col. Vaughan served % months in
Australia and the South Pacific
before an airplane crash sent him
to the hospital for five months.
After. he recuperated, he was
appointed liaison officer between
the War Department and the Tru-
man Senate War Investigating
Committee. He was promoted to
the rank of full colonel in Sep
tember, 1914, and for a short time
held the unprecedented office of
military aide to the Vice President,
Mr.. Truman. He continued as
military aide to Mr.. Truman after
President Roosevelts death.
AS White House aide, Gen.
Vaughan has been a hard worker,
assuming many details relating to
veterans affairs and the military
establishment, which had bur-
dened previous Presidents. He
serves as a confidential secretary
as we'll as trusted confident of the
President.
Friends say two such independ-
ent characters could never have
worked together so long without
strong personal loyalties and a
knack for helping each other. In
relating their long association to
the Reserve officers Association
at the Army and Navy Country
Club Tuesday night, the President
remarked with a grin:
This dates him-and me, too. -

conference with President Tru.
man, he remarked that Winston
Churchill was a "garrulous ole
gentleman" and that the Rus
slams would buy anything they
can't get their hands on other
wise. He added he guessed the
furnishings of the palace where
the conference was held were al
ready three quarters of the way
to Moscow"
A veteran of % months in the
South Pacific, the General re-
ferred to the mahogany foxholes
at the Pentagon.
He really took the plunge, how
ever, when he informed the Prot
estant audience that Catholics
appointed their best men as chap
lains, while the Protestant church
usually sent pastors without con-
gregations or those looking for
"three-year vacations"
Target of Protests.
The General was astonished at
the reaction. He told friends he
thought he was talking in pri-
vate as an elder of the church
1t appeared, however, some people
took the view he was speaking
for the White House. Protests
came from far and wide. Later
churchmen announced President
Truman had "disassociated" him

form adopted at the Democratic
convention in 1948 is clear and
fortnight.
Our job now is to enact into
law the programs that the people
need and deserve.
That is exactly what we are
doing"
However, Mr. Truman continued,
1--WE are meeting determined op-
position. The special interests
are fighting us just as if they had
never heard of November 2. For
them, campaigns and elections are
Just preliminary matches - the
fight in Congress- is the main
issue with them"
Demands Taft Act Repeal.
Again, the President amplified
there is an effort ito frighten the
people with the old worn-out
bugaboo that socialism is taking
over Washington"
Getting down to cases the Pres
ident said that "the special in
terests are using every trick they
can think of to defeat our labor
policy" which involves repeal of
the Taft Hartley Act, one of the
principal planks in the Demo-
cratic platform.
The President asserted that "the
same die-hard reactionaries who
want to cripple labor unions have
also started rampaign Of con-
fusion against all our other meas
ures for the welfare of the people, "
specifying social security expan-
sion, housing, increase in the
statutory minimum wage and
waterways development.
Mr.. Truman also slammed away
at the opposition to his anti-inf1a-
ton program. which along with
the other salient parts of his pro-
gram, is finding slow going on
Capitol Hill.
Explaining that his proposals
are designed to increase produc-
ton and strengthen the economy
generally, Mr.. Truman asserted
that campaign of misrepresen-
tation" is being CARED on against
them by special interests who are
making excessive profits out OF
present shortages"
Hits Do-Nothing Movement.
Jibing at the charges or "regi-
mentation" that foes of the pro-
gram have raised, Mr.. Truman
asserted that "a government able
and willing to act in the interest
of the whole economy is better
friend of free competitive enter
prise than a do-nothing govern
ment ready to let the economy
slide into depression.
The great problem of the free
Western democracies is the prob

man declared. "The future of the

Friends through two wars and
plenty OF politics and embarrass-
ing situations. Harry Vaughan
and Harry Truman appear to be
as close today as they were back
in 1917. when they joined the field
artillery.
The general gets his foot in
his mouth" occasionally, and there
can be little doubt that his COM
mander in chief shares his en-
barrassment. Yet when Maj.
Gen. Harry Vaughan was attacked
by Columnist Drew Pearson. Presi-
dent Truman came to his aid with
a vigor that smacked of their bar
racks room days together.

standing up for fellow artillery

man who helped him build up a
meager campaign fund during a
tough senatorial race back in 1910.
He saw no reason, despite the
columnist's criticism, why Gen.
Vaughan should not have ac-
cepted a medal from Argentina.
On other occasions. however, the
President has remained silent, or

Tones Down Remarks.
The bluff, hearty Missourian of
Scotch-Welsh descent has learned
to temper his remarks somewhat
under the weight of his two stars
and the golden shoulder loop of
the White House military aide.
This, his friends say, despite a life
long penchant for speaking his
mind freely.
The general had only one star
and little knowledge of how much
his new rank had added to the
carrying power of his voice when
he gave the Women's Auxiliary
