AGAINST MACARTHUR E
 ABSOLUTE FAKE
Reports of Attempted As sdssindtion Revealed
 But Discounted

TOKYO, June 2-tR-Maj. Gen. Charles A. cHlloughby said tonight occupation headquarters had rc- ceived Japanese reports of another plot to assassinate General Mac Arthur, but he called them "an absolute fake"
 Nobody is going to kill Santa Claus" Willoughby, MacArthuf's intelligence officer, said.
 He disclosed an "excitable" Ja- panese policeman had informed occupation headquarters that police had arrested a Japanese who "ap- parently was paranoic"-a man who thinks the world is against him.
 Headquarters refuses to accept this story as evidence of a piC~,' Willoughby said. He added that no extra guards had been assigned to MacArthur.
 Another American source said the dllcScu plOU dS tOAu to OSSutoeAOAA headquarters was this: An unidentified Tokyo organiz- ation, reportedly leftist, planned to kill MacArthur near downtown Hibaya Park, not far from his headquarters.
 The date originally was set for May IA or IS but was postponed until June to coincide with tie Upper House of Parliament cleo tions.
 The man arrested supposedly was involved in the plan but it was not clear whether he was to be the assassin. There was no informa- tion concerning the organization and no details as to how the killing was to be done.
 Macarthur rides past a section of Hibaya Park four times daily in committing between his office and his American Embassy home.

Francis the army mule proves that a jackass-or half-jackass- isn't necessarily jackass.
 ,"Francis," spelled with an IT," is the feature currently showing at the Capitol Theatre, and it is about a noticeably different army mule. The mule, veteran of seven years in Uncle Sam's forces, can talk. Co-starring with Donald O'Connor, he-or it--manages to steal the show.
 The setting is in Burma during the late war, and the talent of Francis considerably. and humor- ously, hastens the end of the war. Francis talent also results in shave tail O'Connor's being confined to the booby-hatch and basket-weav- ing.

 Own Defense

V WASHINGTON. March 15--lR-- The State Department today ordered John s. Service back from India to testify personally in departmental review of his loyalty record
 Service. a veteran diplomatic of- ficer. was among four department employees charged yesterday by Senator Mccarthy (R-Wis) as being pro-Communist.
 His recall was ordered on recom- mendation of the Civil Service loy- alty review board. It said the State Departments own previous investi- cation of Service should have in- cluded his personal appearance.
 Press Officer Lincoln White told reporters the recommendation does not mean Service is under any new suspicion"

 Shortly before, Senator Tydings D-Md) said the Senate investiga- tors expect to get State Department files on the persons accused by Mccarthy of Communist leanings.
 He told a news conference that John E. Peurfoy. Deputy Under ecretary of State, had indicated to him that the files will be made available.

 The State Department has de- clared that all those named publicly by McCarthy--if they ever worked for the Department-were thor oughly investigated and found to be loyal.
 Some of those he named never were State Department employees.

New MoUe Made In Hearing On Conln1unisn
STEP TAKEN TOWARD
 GRANTING SITE FOR TERRITORIAL BLDG.

A major step toward construction of new Territorial building here was taken by the City Council when it met in special session last night
 Ordinance 327 CD was read for the third time and adopted by the Council. The new ordinance calls for special election at which city voters will ratify or reject the pro- posal to grant to the Territory free and clear of leasehold interests" the city's lots three and four, block seven, known as the Arctic Brother hood Hall property, and to sell to the Territory for s60,000 the city's lots five and six--the City Hall property and the vacant lot adjoin- ing it. tf
 No date was set for the special election at the meeting, but, it was indicated that date would be set at the regular council meeting Fri day night.
 The special election date will not be set less than 30 days from the time the ordinance was passed by the Council. Care will be taken so that the special election date will not be in conflict with the Territorial primary election, city of ficialS said.
 The new ordinance was passed following the receipt of copy of a resolution by the Territorial Board of Administration which stated its approval of the conditions laid down in the ordinance for the transfer of the property.
 Construction of new Territorial Building was authorized by pro- visions of Chapter 105 of the Ses- sion Laws of Alaska for l949.
