One of Barkley's latest stories is about a Kentucl friend who aelped him get elected to the House of Representatives a quarter of a century ago After the election | the friend came around to tell him: “I want you to know that I sweat, | bled and almost died for you There isn't anything I wouldn’t do for you, and all I want is for you to be a great congressman.” A few years later Barkley was elected to the Senate. Again his friend came to see him, and sald “] want you to know that I sweat, bled and almost died for you and I know you are going to be a great Senator. There isn't anything else I'want from you.” Finally, when Barkley was elected Vice President of the United States, his friend came back and this time he said: “When you were elected to the Houce of Representatives, T did my best to help you. When you were elected to the Senate, I went down the line for you again 1 also sweat, bled and almost died to make vyou Vice President. you to do something for me. “What is it?” asked Barkley. ried. “Help me take ont my citizensh'p paper wor- B-36 TEST Since the much-ballyhooed battle of the B-36 vs. Navy jet lighter hasn't come off yet, the A Force has decided to stage a secret Be36 test on its own These tests have been staged at Muroc Base, California, and so far jet planes have theoretically shot down—with camera guns—the giant plane which is scheduled to carry the atom bomb in case of war. However, this does not yet mean that the jet fighters are superior to the big bombers. So far the B-36 hasn't fired back, has merely tried to escape jet Since the kombers’ guns have a range 800 yards greater than the jets, the fin- al result may be different. The tests have also demonstrated that it's difficult to hold the jets steady for accurate firing at an al- titude of 40,000 feet. In the B-36's guns are on a more stable base and can shoot farther It is also significant that the Air Force has used its lightning- speed F-86 in the secret tests—a plane that holds the world’s Speed record and can outfly the Navy's Banshee Note—The F-86 was piloted in the Muroc test by Captain “Chuck’ Yeager. JUDITH COPLON CHECKUP ALMOST DROPPED The i e story of the Judith Coglon case is that at one time the Justice Department almost dropped the investigation.

REPENTANT NAZI The U. S. Army has strange ways of doing things. Only Nazi defendant to plead guilty and turn state’s evidence at the Nuremberg trials was Ernest Wilhelm Bohle, who was finaliy ac- quitted of war crimes or crimes against peace and humanity, but was sentenced to five years for be- ing an SS man. Believe it or not, the Army has now imprisoned Bohle with seme ot the hard-boiled SS life-termers against whom Bohle testified. As a result he is in danger of his | life. When Bohle was first sentenced to Lansberg Prison he was actually put in solitary confinement, usual- 1y reserved for those waiting death. The cells have no ventilation, and Bohle was denied exercise and the ight to shave. Other war crimin- als were treated more leniently. Following protests, Bohle has been assigned to hard labor but is un- der constant threats from other SS prisoners. Representations by the American Civil Liberties Union to the Army have so far gone unheeded. DIPLOMATIC POUCH The French and British flec are staging a secret rendezvous off the French coast today (June 30) to test out very important new ra- dar equipment At one point during the Paris conference when Vishinsky stalled, Acheson stood up and said: “Mr. Vishinsky, I didn't come to Paris to dance a diplomatic minuet. I came here to get some- 1 thing accomplished.” Vishinsky im- mediately went back to real work. HOSPITAL NOTES Admitted to St. Ann’s yesterday were Mrs. Roy of Yakutat, Teddy Atbott, | Rieke and H.
