views denied they had done any
thing wrong in speculating on oil
leases. Mr.. Caudle, it was learned,
was questioned by the King SUBJ
committee about some of his as
sociates in the oil venture.
6. Representative Curtis, Re-
publican, of Missouri called for the
resignation of both Mr.. Caudle
and Attorney General McGrath as
a result of disclosures about the
Assistant Attorney Generals oil
dealings and trip he made to
Italy last summer as a guest of
two wine merchants.
z. The subcommittee confer
red in closed meeting yesterday
with Secretary of the Treasury
Snyder and Mr.. Dunlap. After
wards, Mr.. King said they were all
in complete agreement on the
crucial Importance of eliminating
at all levels all failures of re-
Sponsibility."
In connection with the San
Francisco situation, which the
subcommittee is investigating, Mr.
King said it is hard to under
stand the refusal of cooperation
by the Justice Department unless
Its conduct has been in
defensible," and added:
II do not believe that the United
States Attorney or the Depart
ment of Justice is in any position
to retreat behind a screen of sill
ence."
The collector of internal rev.
enue in San Francisco, James G
|Smyth. and eight other officials
and employees in that Office have
been suspended pending an in
vestigation.
There have been reports that
the Justice Department has in
terfered in the grand jury investi-
cations and this, it was said, was
one OF the matters under inquiry
by the King subcommittee.
Mr.. King said he thought At
torney General McGrath should
give the subcommittee an explana-
tion of Mr.. Tramutolo's, action
but he said it was not planned
to call Mr.. McGrath "immedi-
lately"
Mr.. Caudle told reporters yes
terday he withdrew from an oil
development project because he
learned his name was being used
to promote the venture.
Frank Nathan, Pittsburgh
promoter. was an associate in the
deal. Mr.. Caudle said he had
known Mr.. Nathan socially fol
more than three years but he
denied having anything to do with
the dismissal of an indictment
against him in 1947 in a sugar
case.
Mr.. Caudle said he had acquired
an interest in an oil lease from
Mr.. Larson-an 110-acre interest
at $4 an acre. Later, he added
the wells began to dry up land
took big loss on it."
Mr.. Larson told reporters that
for 20 years he had dabbled ir
oil investments in his native Ok
lahoma and Texas and that prac-
tically all of the ventures hao
turned out bad.

Senator Smith Suggests
Taft, Dewey for Cabinet
BY the Associated Pres,

Senator Margaret Chase Smith.
Republican. of Maine, only wom-
an in the Senate. says she be-
lieves President Truman could
contribute to this country's secur-
ity and world peace by taking his
political critics into partnership.
She says she even believes such
Republican leaders as Gov. Dewey
of New York and Senato1 Taft,
Republican. of Ohio could join
such partnership-in cabinet
positions without jeopardizing
their presidential nomination
chances in 1852.
Mrs. Smith, it was learned to-
day, expressed such views in a
speech to a private dinner here
earlier this week while giving an
appraisal of the 82d Congress.

Dewey Doesn't Want
Administration Posi-;
No Offer Is Expected
Nv the Associated Press

ALBANY, N. Y. Jan. 1L-Gov.
Dewey does not want a job with
President Truman's administra-
tion in Washington and does rot
expect to be offered one. but he
might find it difficult to refuse #
asked.
That is Gov. Dewey'.s position as
summed up today by an authori-
tative source.
Gov. Dewey. twice defeated for
the Presidency, believes ne can
serve the Nation better by re-
naming in Albany and, as tituiar
leader of the Republican Party,
continuing to speak out boldly for
full mobilization of the country's
manpower and economic resources.
Reports keep cropping up that
Mr.. Truman might offer Gov.
Dewey a cabinet post or similar
important job in Washington in
a move to promote greater unity
in behalf of the defense effort.
But the Dewey people doubt
seriously that President Truman
wants Gov. Dewey in his cabinet.
Official sources deny without
qualification a recent icport that
Gov. Dewey was offered the Sec
retaryship of State last summer
and that he rejected it.
The Truman administration Of
fered to make Gov. Dewey Ambas-
sador to Great Britain last August,
but he turned it down

 A trap door in the rear of the es- tablishment was found which ord inarily opened into nothing but water below. But when the tide was out, it was found 10-foot dror to the fill had evidently been sealed with a ladder. Ladder marks could ee plainly seen.
 Police advised Sofoulis also to lock the trap door in the future.

Statehood Bills Up Next Congress Is Promise Made

WASHINGTON, Oct. g - IR = Majority Leader Mcfarland O. Ariz) told the Senate Saturday the statehood for Hawaii and Alaska will be considered early in the next session of Congress that begins January 8.
 The House has passed bills to ad- init Hawaii and Alaska as the 18th and 50th states several times, but they always have died in the Senate.
 Senator Knowland CR-Calif) to- day asked assurances from McFar- land that the statehood bills would be considered "early in the next session"
 He said people of the two terri tories had been waiting a long time" and unless the Senate acted early in the session there probably would be no decision again.
 Senator OMahoney O. Wy o), chairman of the Senate Interior and Insular Affairs committee which handles the legislation, said he would do everything possible to get the statehood issue before the Senate promptly, saying:
 People of those areas are en- titled to have a decision. I will leave nothing undone to have that done"

CAB Under Fiye Over CantelIing Airline Permit

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9 - R - A federal order cancelling the per- init of an independent airline to fly a route to Alaska came under fire in the Senate Saturday.
 Senator Sparkman (D-Ala) chair man of the Senate Small Business Committee which is investigating the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) told the Senate CAB had erred in judgment when it made the order.
 He Joined Senator Morse D-Ore) in a renewal of accusations that CAB at times has applied "stran- gulation regulations" to independent air lines.
 Sparkman named the line in ques- tion as Air Transport Associates. Morse said the permit cancellation was part of a CAB program to eliminate the independent air lines" and had caused great up- set" to the business life at Anchor age and other Alaska cities.
 Morse asked Sparkman whether he feared CAB might get tougher with the independents while Con- gress is out of session.
 Sparkman told Morse he has instructed the committee staff tc skeep in touch" with CAB affairs while Congress is away.

Atom BIast May BeBirth Of Baby Bomb

LAS VEGAS, Nev., Oct. 22--iR- The Atomic Energy Commission am nounced that it set off 8 nuclear explosion at its Yucca Flat test site shortly after 6 am. (PST9 today. It was not visible nor was t felt in Las Vegas, 75 miles away.
 The explosion came just as a bright sun was rising over the mountains to the cast, and this may have had something to do with the inability of observers to see a flash to the northwest.
 It was .l.e sixth atomic blast in Nevada. live others were set off at the AEC proving ground near here last winter, all before dawn. All were brilliantly visible for hundreds of miles.
 The AEC made only this state ment.
 One of the nuclear detonations announced by the Atomic Energy Commission on Aug. 28 was held this morning at the Nevada test site"
 An AEC spokesman confirmed that the shot was made from the top of a 100-foot steel tower. similar to the structures used in the orig inal A-bomb blast at Alamagordo NM, in 1945 and also later at Eni- wetok.
 The absence of any flash would seem to confirm speculation that the AEC has developed smaller nue. lear weapon. Speculation on such weapons has included artillery-type shells and guided missiles with atomic warheadS.
 This, however, was stationary or fixed-point detonation and would indicate that the atomic scientists have developed what might be termed a baby A-bomb.

Reds Retreat; U. S. Tanks
 Rake kunsong
By ROBERT EUNSON

US. EIGHTH ARMY HEAD QUARTERS. Korea, Oct. 22-R- American tanks rumbled into fam ing Kumsong today for the second time in three days as Chlnese re- treated before advancing Allied In fantrymen.
 For four hours the M-46 Patton tanks shot up the former Red stronghold on the central front. Then they numbered back through mud and heavy mortar fire to their own lines.
 Allied Infantrymen, striking out of the fog, Overran two hill passes including the highest yet taken on the 15-mile Kumsong front. The Reds put up hot fight on the ridgeline for a little while.
 Then they withdrew, and the United Nations Infantrymen ad- vanced unopposed through the mud. Despite the soggy going, the ad- vance was so rapid engineers had a hard time keeping up with the h. fantrymen.
 Forty-two Chinese didn't want to retreat. They surrendered.
 A front line officer estimated
  Red casualties in the ten day offensive would exceed 15,O00.
 The Air Force said nine B-2ss today knocked out new airfielo in northwest Korea just as the Reds were getting it ready for use.
 The target, at Taechon about 4a miles southeast of the Manchurlan border, was designated very spe- cial" by the Air Force.
 For a long time, observers hao watched the Reds build the concrete airstrip from riverbottom sand.
 When it was ripe for blasting = after the Reds had spent the ulti- mate in labor on it and just before it could be put in use = high ranking Air Force officer called for it's destruction.

 zone for the armistice. The Reds suspended the Kaesong talks Aug g. They charged the Allies bombed the Kaesong neutral zone the day before but the Allies denied the charge.

Huge Tax
 Bill Signed Truman
Provides for Individual Boosts; Further Increases 10 Be Asked

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22 R = Higher taxes on income and many things people buy will go into effect Nov. 1. They are included in the new tax act expected to increase the federal revenue by $5.691 ,000. 900 a year
 In signing the tax bill Saturday, President Truman said this is not enough and he will call on Con- sress in January to improve the tux laws.
 MT. Truman had asked for 410,- 000,000,000 in new revenue. He signed the measure calling for q lesser amount. he said. not because it is a good bill but because we badly need these revenues to help pay for the strong defenses we are building"
 The measure provides for indivi- dual tax boosts ranging from Il to 12 percent for most taxpayers; excise (sales) tax increases on a long list of items including liquor. gasoline and household appliances. and bigger taxes for corporations.
 MT. Truman criticized provisions in the law which he said give wealthy persons new chances for escaping their share of the tax load through such devices as excessively liberal capital gains provisions, family partnerships. and excessive depletion allowances on oil and gas and certain mineral properties"

WASHINGTON. Oct. 22-tR-A wave of protest against President Truman's decision to enter regular diplomatic relations with the Vat ican promised today to touch off a heated battle when Congress re- convenes.
 There was little if any criticism of the Presidents selection of Gen Mark Clark as Ambassador to the Roman Catholic Church State. The protests, some of them from >the pulpit, were from Protestants who argued that the establishment of diplomatic relations violates the constitutional injunction that the church and state shall be separate.
