The Russians announced last
night they were replacing* miliiary
rule in eastern Germany with a ci

last month.

east and west German republics

Navy’s Role I Repeated
But because of recently renewed
public discussion about the Navy^
mission, Johnson said he thought
it was proper to repeat again thi
Navy’s role as adopted by the joint
chiefs of staff and himself on
June 19, 1949.
Johnson then quoted from a
speech made that day in which
he said the Navy’s role is to con
trol the sea lanei. He also re
peated a conviction expressed then
of a continuing need for the Navy’s
air jann and for carrier aircraft.
Johnson devoted a major por
tion of his speech to praising the
AFL’s part in pushing war produc
tion during the last war and in
helping develop free trade unions
abroad and democratic movements
since then.

Rummans Files
SU Against
McCarthy
Los Angeles, Oct. 12 (AP)
—Glenn McCarthy, wealthy
Houston oilman, is accused of
beating and kicking a sports
promoter who alleges he was
hired—and then fired—to promote
a charity pro football game.
Larry Rumman of Los Angeles
filed suit yesterday, asking 9210,-
000 in damages from McCarthy.
Rummans’ suit alleges that Mc
Carthy hired him to promote a
game in Houston Dec. 17 between
the champion of the All America
football conference and an all-star
team. He was promised, the suit
read, $10,000 plus a share of the
gate.
The promoter added that he was
summoned to Houston, told “we
don’t need you anymore.” Then
when he protested, the suit con
tinued, McCarthy jumped ton a
desk, kicked him in the chest and
chin and hit him with his fist
while two bodyguards held him.
Rummans said he was held captive
two days in McCarthy Shamrock
Hotel in Houston. -r
James Clark, McCarty’s public
relations man, said in. Houston
McCarthy at no time hired Rum
mans nor had any dealing with him
about the charity game.

“Pm considered in many circles
to be very unethical," President
Truman’s army aide confided to a
friendly audience, “and I’m sure

‘There are only two people I
have to please—Mr. Truman and
Mrs. Vaughan. As long as I please
them, I am satisfied.
“I’ve made various suggestions

can Interpolate your interpretation
of that.”
The occasion was a $2-a-plate
party given In Vaughn’s honor
yesterday by members of various
varetans organizationiji. They gath
ered to show appreciation for the
various chores Vaughan has hund-
l#d as President Truman's cordlii-
