probably all that is true, Jess, but
| want to do something for Al Smith"
Mr.. Jones told the President he did
not think the project could be justi-
fed and he could not approve it. "He
never forgave me-" said Mr.. Jones.
This is one of the most remarkable
stories ever told about an American
President. Certainly, it is devas-
tating indictment. Here is the White
House occupant asking a subordinate
in control OF billions of the publlc's
money to use $40, 900, 900 of it to pur-
chase a losing property at twice its
value, a property not needed by the
Government and with no excuse for
its purchase except that 81 want to
do something for Al Smith" Mr..
Smith, a man of great political influ-
ence and his friend, Mr. Raskob, both
of whom had been bitterly hostile to
him personally and politically, clear
ly could have been of great use to
Mr.. Roosevelt as friends instead of
foes in 1914.
That a favor, such as Mr.. Roosevelt
proposed to do for them, might bring
this about was clearly in his mind
connot be doubted. The notion that
he wanted merely to get Mr.. Raskob
and Governor Smith "off the hook"
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1951-11-01

because he was sorry for them is alb
surd. That was what Mr. Jones fully
understood He makes the facts pub
lie in his book Fifty Billion Dollars"
When the incident occurred, he was
still head of the RFC and his personal
relations with Mr.. Roosevelt were
cordial. An example of how cordial
was given in the fact that about the
asked Mr.. Jones to get his son Elliott
out Of the jam he had gotten into by
borrowing, with the indispensable aid
of his father, nearly half i million
dollars from rich men, such as the
late John Hartford. At the request
of the President, Mr.. Jones settled
Elliott's debts at 2 cents on the dol
lar, paying $4,000 out of his own
pocket which he did not get back for
five years.
Mr.. Joness book was published less
than month ago but Mr.. Jones told
the Empire State story to a number
of friends at the time-nine years
ago. Just as in this matter no other
motive except personal, political
one can be ascribed to Mr. Roosevelt,
no motive for telling this story can
be ascribed to Mr.. Jones except that
it is the truth. 1t is inconceivable
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1951-11-01

that any man would imagine or invent
such story. 1t occurred at a time
when Mr.. Jones was high in the favor
of Mr.. Roosevelt. In view of this un-
precedentedly discreditable act upon
the part of President, the "wretched
Boyle" indeed, seems a minnow and
the other influence peddlers small
fry.
1t is too late to do anything now
except to make plain that the Empire
and the Elliott incidents are an ines
capable part of the Roosevelt record
and a part of American history.
But no mention of either will be
found in the oleaginous biographies
already written by his sycophantic
worshipers. This consistent policy of
ignoring every fact not creditable to
the late President is emphasized by
the manner in which the above-men

The MinnOws and a Whale

The professional liberals of Journal
ism and politics now characterize the
"wretched Mr.. Boyle" as a minnow.
They speak of his RFC improprieties
as relatively unimportant and declare
recent exposures of Administration
corruption concern small fry" They
are a queer group. For example, they
express surprise that the Republicans
have neglected to fish for the sal
mon and trout to be caught in the
turgid pools of the Federal Power
Commission, the Department of JUS
tice and the Office of Alien Property.
The suggestion is that in pursuit
Of the minnow, Boyle, they are over
looking the big fish because so many
Of the big fish are their own friends.
Perhaps they are right, but that does
not explain why these torch bearers
of the Liberal Cause" themselves so
utterly ignored the great, white
whale exposed by Mr.. Jesse Jones as
outsplashing all others in the RFC
waters, sponsoring the biggest and
most brazen of all efforts to use RFC
funds for improper purposes. The
name of this whale was Franklin d.
Roosevelt, then President of the
United States and the glittering hero
of the aforementioned torch bearers
His proposal was made directly to
Mr.. Jones by Mr. Roosevelt in 1912
when he was preparing to run for
fourth term. 1t was that the RFC buy
the Empire State Building OF which
the late John J. Raskob was chief
owner and Ex-Governor Alfred +.
Smith manager and stakeholder, as a
headquarters for all Federal activi-
ties in New York. He asked Mr.
Jones to say nothing to anyone about
this, but said he hoped he would find
way to put it through. Mr.. Jones
said he would try. A few days later
he went back to the White House
and told Mr.. Roosevelt: (D that the
Empire State Building was losing
money at a great rate; (2) that the
price asked-$40 900, 000-was twice
what it was worth CD that a better
location and more desirable building
could not be got for less than half
the price; ca that this was not the
sort of business the RFC was created
to do. To this Mr.. Roosevelt replied;

this auction, but let's skip that to
get to the play.
For reasons of his own, West
opened a club instead of a dia-I
mond The club ace was put up

the five to his own ace. When the

blow, however, and now South was
in trouble. He continued with the

the ace. On the third trump lead,
East won and had the imagination

West thereupon won the lead and
returned spade which East
ruffed South still had to concede

thus the sound contract was down

It goes without saying that South

Allied Negotiators
Pressed by Reds 10
Accept Truce Plan
BY the Assoeioted Press

MUNSAN, Korea, Nov. 2.-Red
truce negotiators pressed Allied
delegates today to accept the
Communist proposal for a cease
fire buffer zone across Korea-but
baked at issuing an u1timatum.
Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols,
United Nations Command spokes-
man, said the Communist sub
committee at Panmunjom urged
the Allies to give up their de-
mands for Kaesong and accept
the Red line.
Maj. Gen. Henry I. Hodes, head
Of the U. N. subcommittee, asked
the Reds if they were issuing an
ultimatum.
New Meeting Scheduled.
"They refused to answer di-
rectly," Gen. Nuckols said, "and
were evasive. saying that sincerity
was necessary on both Sides"
Two meetings during the day
wound up with mo progress. +"
They agreed to try again at
II am. Saturday % pm. Fri
day. EST.
Truce negotiations hinge now on
whether the former armistice city
of Kaesong and its guardian hills
are left in Red territory or placed
in Allied hands. The Reds say
they must have it.
Gen. NuckolS said the U. N. po-
sition is firm, but not adamant."
Follows Moscow Pattern.
The Red negotiators' insistence
on quick acceptance of their buffer
zone followed the same pattern as
Moscow newspapers, which said
the proposal was intended to re-
move "all possible pretext" for
Americans to prolong armistice
negotiations.
Communist newsmen in Pan
munjom said Red delegates de-
manded the Allies give ''yes or
no" answer on whether they
would accept the Red version of
a demilitarized zone. The news
men said the demand was made
yesterday and an answer re-
quested today.
Gen. Nuckols said no such de-
man had been made.
He indicated negotiators skirted
the biggest stumbling block I'M
the way of agreement on de-
militarized zone. That is: Who
gets Kaesong and the hills north
of it? The Reds hold the area
and insist on keeping it. The
Allies want it to guard one of
the invasion routes to Seoul, 34I
air miles to the southeast.
Red newSmen at Panmunjo
said the Communist stand onl
Kaesong was firm. They COM
pared 1t to the warning by the
Chinese Foreign Minister in the
fall of 1850 that Chinese troops
would enter the Korean war i'll
U. N. forces crossed the 38th
Parallel.
Gen. Nuckols commented, "if
that is what, the Communist prop
aganda line is saying, it Is not
reflected in the conversations in
the tent"
