His Neck was Out

One of the men behind the head lines quietly left the government last week-Steve Leo, the press wizard who masterminded Stuart Symington's public relations.
 Though Leo expertly kept him. self out of the headlines. he is well known behind the scenes as the man who kept up clamor for a stronger air force against the opposition of two secretaries of Defense and President Truman himself. Leo spoke through his boss, Symington. yet-by a miracle of public relations-he kept Sym- ington in the good graces of the White House.
 During the Air Force-Navy feud, Leo guided Air Force strategy so effectively that Secretary of De- fense Forrestal tried to hire him away from the Air Force and later, Secretary of Defense Johnson large ly blamed Leo for his custer.
 Actually all Leo did was give the public the facts. He had such a rare zeal for the truth that he was one of the few press chiefs who would admit mistakes made by his boss. In fact. Leo's motto which

Fewer Tv Sets

Last weeks cobalt cutback was only starter. Television and radio producers will get another stiff jolt in forthcoming orders restrict ing both cobalt and copper parts in radio and TV sets. However, neither indr&try will be allowed to close down.
 Enough of the scarce materials will be allocated to keep both TV and radio manufacturers going un- til their assembly lines can be con- verted entirely to defense orders probably late this year.
 Other critical materials, needed for war production, to be restricted soon will be; lead, zinc, tin and all minimum.
 Such things as aluminium bar rails, tin containers for cookies, coffee, tea, etc.. copper doorknobs, copper plumbing in homes, cop per ash trays. jewelry and other expendables, natural rubber toys and replaceable aluminium parts in autos are among the nonessen- tials sure to be ruled out by the National Production Authority.
 Also, the manufacture of beer cans will be banned or cut back sharply.
 Note-Cobalt is used for magnets in radio and TV loudspeakers (also refrigerator doors, moving picture sound equipment and focusing coils in TV picture tubes.

 Wire Tapping
 The closing hours of Congress once again illustrate the strength CT the tie that binds the nations most exclusive club-the United States Senate.
 Fer three months. off and on, q Senate subcommittee has been rrobing the connection of Maine'S Senator Brewster with the outrag- tous tapping of Howard. Hughes telephone-apparently on behalf Of Pan American Airways-at a time when Pan American wanted Hughes Trans World Airlines to consolidate.
 Though against the law, the w.re-tapping was done by a Wash ington police lieutenant, Joseph Shimon, who has not been prose- outed or even denoted as punish ment for his illegal activities. The same lieutenant also broke into an apartment occupied by the Argen- tine bassador-tactics used by rolice states behind the Iron Cur tain-thereby giving us black eye all over Latin America.
 Despite this, the police lieuten- ant remains undisciplined. Further more, after the first Senate hear ing, kind-hearted Senator Pepper Of Florida, head of the investigat- ing committee, took a trip to Eu- rope with Brewster of Maine, the Senator he was Investigating. Both were delegates to the Inter-Par- liamentary Union.
 Today, as Congress closes, no unfavorable report is being made against Brewster. He did not even testify before the committee, though his secretary admitted handing a cash payment to It. Shimon af- ter finishing the wire-tapping job.

Ralph s. Jarrett. The gown of white satin was of classic design with long sleeves and train. The simplicity of the cowl neckline was dramatized by jeweled clip. Her veil of white netting, held in place by an ornamental headpiece, fell away into long train. She carried a white Bible topped with red roses and white streamers.

 Jamie Hooper, year-old daugh- ter of MT. and Mrs. Duane Hooper, dressed in a long red dress with white ruffling around the bottom and the sleeves, preceded the bride down the aisle carrying a basket of holly.
 For the event, Mrs. Nicholson, mother of the bride, wore rose biege dress and hat and a corsage of talisman roses.
 Preceding the ceremony, Patti Luer of Bozeman sang 70, Perfect Love" and as the couple knelt at the altar, she sang Mallot's Lords Prayer" She was accompanied by E. O. Overland at the organ who also played the traditional wedding marches.
 At the reception held in the Par ish hall following the ceremony. Mrs. Ralph Jarrett, sister of the bride and Mrs. Stuart Nicholson, their aunt, presided at the tea table decorated with an unusual center piece of white heather and holly berries in a tiered form of plastic snow foam topped with three red tapers and ornamented with two china angels and silver ribbon.
 The brides table was covered with white linen table cloth edged with holly. The thre tiered wedding cake was decorated with white roses and wedding bells. Mrs. Orvin Flare assisted in cutting the cake.

 Mrs. CaShen attended local schools and following her graduation from the local high school, she attended Northwest Institute of Medical Technology in Minneapolis. During the war, she enlisted in the Waves. For the past IS months, she has been employed at the Juneau clinic in Juneau, Alaska.
 The groom, who attended Douglas schools, is employed there at pre- sent. He saw service with the coast guard during the last war
