TITO AND U. s. DOLLARS

The Yugosav Government has approached the United States and British and French Governments on the subject of a loan grants, with which it would complete its five-year indusrazation plan
 There is an interesting story behind this re- quest few years ago, Yugoslavs were accepting aid from the Soviet Union toward the completion of their five-year industralization plan However, when the break between Marshal Tito and the Soviet Union occurred, all Soviet aid was cut off. The indus triaization program in Yukoslavia only partially completed and many huge buildings destined to be- come industrial establishments lay only halffnshed at the time of the break.
 American newspaper representatives recently in Belgrade, had occasion to observe these haif-com- pleted buildings = about which the Yugoslavs so sensitive fact many of the people in Yugoslavia believe the real reason work was halted these projects was the discovery by Yugoslav builders that the earth was suitable to support structure of such weight
 Yugoslavs in Belgrade tell visitors the huge un- finished concrete buildings have cracks in them caus ed by the sandy soil foundation on which they were built However no cracks visible to the eyes of American newsrnen in Belgrade recently, and the story they were given that the stoppage in ship ments of Russian equipment, and an end to tech nicai aid were responsible for the breakdown of this part of the Yugoslav industriazation program
 thus today when the United States is already supplying Yugoslavia military aid, the Yugoslavs are asking for economic aid also aid from the same west Marshal Tito in former years denounced so strongly His Communist government again is calling on the ~capitalistc" West to bail Yugoslavia out Of situation in which statism seems to be relatively hopeless.

 Senator Wiley, I had learned earlier, had taken an investigatory interest in the Alien Property Gus todian after his brother-in-law, R. D. Jenkins, had been turned down on a case involving the Interna- tional Silk Guild of which Jenkins is an official The silk guild wanted to collect several hundred thousand dollars from the U. s. Govern ment, which the Alien Property Custodian seized during the war as Japanese funds. The silk guild claimed they were not Japanese funds, but their own funds. How ever, the Alien Property Custodian finally ruled they were funds which the Japanese had set aside for ad- vertising, and therefore belonged to Uncle Sam as Alien Property, not to the silk guild and to Senator Wiley's brother-in-law

 While it is difficult to prove, the probability is that many prisoners of war, who have been unheard of since the close of hostilities impressed into labor gangs Undoubtedly, many of them died under the hardships of the slave labor system.

PAY TO OLD ROOMMATE

Regarding other matters-though not this-I think Senator Wiley is right in Investigating the Alien Property Custodian. Meanwhile, l proceeded with the investigation of Mrs. Baynton's mink coat.
 The mink coat, I had heard, was given to Mrs Baynten by Harold Horowitz, who draws s27600 as pre- sident of E. Leitz Co.,. the former German firm which makes Leica cameras. Since this alien company is now operated by the Alien Pro- perty Custodian, Horowitz keeps his job partly at the pleasure of MT. Baynton.
 Originally Horowitz got his job through Herbert Bergson, former assistant attorney general, who turned out to have been Horowitz'S roommate at Harvard law school. Running the Leitz Co.,, is only a half-t time job, so $27,600 is pretty good pay, though in fairness to Horowitz it should be noted that when he took the firm over, it was on the verge of bankruptcy. Now it's making real dough.
 Horowitz also gets an expense account of about Sl5,000 year, and Baynton's predecessor, David Baz- elon, now a federal judge. quest toned some of his expense items, including reported S2,000 for a trip to California. In fact, Baze- lon, on one occasion, picked up the phone and instructed Horowitz not to spend a cent more without his okay.
 Incidentally, the profits from Alien Property go to U. s. veterans who were imprisoned by the Japs and Germans, so every dollar paid out on expenses means that much less for them.
 Bayr1ton told me, however, that he examined Horowitz's expenses and found them to be okay.
 Another interesting angle is that Horowitz, having got his job as president of the Leica Camera concern through his old roommate, Herbert Bergson, is now paying aforesaid Bergson $1,000 month as legal retainer, Bergson now being in private law practice.
 Baynton explained that the Leitz

PEARSON's MEAN STREAK

Wasn't that about the time Merle Young was getting all that public ity on his wife's $8,000 mink?" l asked, yielding to what my wife calls that mean streak" in me.
 MT. Baynton denied this. He said his wife had sent it back before the furor over the Merle Young mink. He had been embarrassed, he said, because his wife told various people she had found the coat under the Christmas tree.
 Ut was a beautiful coat" he sighed, "and you know how women are especially when their husbands have an important new job for the first time.
 I said did know. didn't tell him, but remembered one occasion when my wife got quite, quite lr- ritated-so much so that I finally went out and bought her a fur coat. After that she resumed speak ing to me again.
 I pointed out to MT. Baynton that he had told my assistant and the press chief of the Justice Depart ment conflicting stories about his wife's borrowed" mink, and asked him which was right. He replied that my assistant had not pressed him hard enough, and insisted that he was telling me the truth.
 Personally I wasn't quite sure how to take Mir Baynton's story, so I've decided to let the reader judge for himself.
 But one thing I'm sure of IS that while mink coats are important some of the other scandals going on in this town-from the graIt in the China lobby. to the B. and O.. Railroad REC loan, to Guy Gabriel sons Carthage Hydrocol loan-are a lot worse than Mrs. Baynton's mink coat.

MRS. BAYNTpNs MINK

After going into all these things, I came round to the less agreeable subject of the mink coat. I point ed out that Mrs. Baynton had been seen in mink coat last winter and 1t was reported that the coat had been given her by Horowitz in return for government favors given him by Mir. Baynton.
 MT. Baynton admitted that his wife did have a mink coat last Christmas, but had only borrowed it.
 ""She felt she deserved a mink coat he explained. we were in the full flush of just being appointed assistant attorney general and I guess it went to our heads.
 T owe quite bit to my wife, '" Baynton continued. When we mov- ed here from the west to finish my law degree, I got job at $l,200 year and we lived on my wife's money. In fact, she used up most of her money before I finished studying law. However, we still had some bonds saved up, and we could have bought her a mink coat, in fact we even figured on buying one wholesale. But then last Christmas she borrowed one
 I asked if she had got it from Horowitz, and Baynton admitted that she borrowed it from Mrs. Horowitz.
 When did she send it back?"
