On his way the officers mess, Engel stopped talk to some young air corps officers who had been flying trans- port plands over the Hump. Tm- mediately, Chaperone Richards rushed over and tried to break up the conversation. “You'll have to in order to make gressman,” he said. * % % GADFLY ENGEL But the congressman courteously brushed him off, got out a pencil and began taking notes. After the others had eaten, Gen. Richards apain rushed out excitedly and tried to hurry Engel to the plane. “We came here to get the facts, General,” declared the congress- man, “and I intend to stay here until I get them.” Richards went off, but returned almost immediately to say that the plane was leaving. He warned Engel bluntly that he would be left behind if he didn't cease his ques- tioning and get on the plane. eat right the plane, away Con- “Take your - --- plane and go,” | “I'm going takes me want to snapped Engel angrily. to get this story if it until Christmas.

Renshow,” acting on orders, smash aircraft parts and | instruments with an axe. An air corps major named Griffith, a shipping supply officer, was sent to Karachi from headquarters to get rid of the supplies within a week. 4—A load of empty ctoca-cola bottles was flown out from China to India. A printing press weighing 8,000 pounds was shipped {rom Karachi to Agra and thence- to Gaya, where it was left unused. An officer at Gaya said it was “the only way he knew tc get rid of it,” the committee was told. 5—Among other things destroyed, the sub-committee learned, were 10 beacon lights worth $3,800 each; 20 Pratt and Whitney engine cyl- inders worth $700 each, and 10 magnetos for airplane engines. = * * | TRUMAN'S XMAS PRESENT There isn't any doubt as to which present Harry Truman prizes the most among the vast collection of gifts received this Christmas. It is a beautiful oil painting of his 92-year-old mother, by the portrait artist Jerry Farnsworth. The painting was presented by Truman’s life-long friend, Frank S. Land of Kansas City, Mo founder and president of the Order of DeMolay. Land explained to Senator Ar- thur Capper of Kansas, Repre- sentative Mendel Rivers of South Carolina and others in Truman’s office that it was fitting the De- Molays should offer tRe gift be- cause the order stresses home life and love for parents. “It's a masterpiece,” President - | “We asked your mother if there said the 1 $2400 loan to buy a refrigerator President | himself with a partner in the wholesale meat business, ) It took him six weeks to get through and he not only {a bank but also had to satisfy the government he was | entering a sound business or §1.50 per month; A always held title to the truck and that its value now s system for s of the cla use of previous methods.
