Mill Backs Yugoslav
Leader In Red Split
WASHINGTON, Aug. 18—(AP)
—Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia pick
ed up new reinforcements to carry
on his fight with l<scow today
with assurance from the United
States that he ean buy an Ameri
can steel mill.
After months ot consideration,
the administration granted the Yu
goslav government an export li
cense which it needed before plac
ing the order for the plant.
The American decision repre
sents the strongest and riskiest
move taken by the American gov- ‘
ernment to help the Yugoslav dic
tator since he split with Moscow
nearly 14 months age.
It also settled a long-standing
argument between the National
Defense and State Depariments on
whether shipment of a steel mill to
Yugoslavia would endanger Amer
ican security. Defense officials
1 had frowned on the idea.
. The decision to go ahead fore
shadowed possible approval of a
loan to Yugoslavia from the world
bank, where the United States has
a dominant voice.
Blockade Blow
Government officials who dis
closed the approval of the Yugo
slav plant request to a reporter said
it was intendea to help combat the
tightening Russian-directed éco
nomic blockade of ‘Yugoslavia.
Shipment of the steel mill, val
ued at $3,000,000, would mark the
first time since the war that the
United States has deliberately sent
“war potential” material to & com
munist-run nation.
Poland and Czechoslovakia have
been clamoring for American ma
_chinery and equipment for the
‘past year, The United States has
flatly refused to heed their ap
peals for fear such strategic ma
terials might be used for war pur
poses.
Officials familiar with the facts
gave this account of the behind
the-scene argument within the ad
ministration high command that
led at last to the favorable de
cision for Yugoslavia.
Secretary of State Acheson
strongly supported the Yugslav
plea on the ground that the g}ant
is vitally needed to prevent Yug

Unemployment In This Area
The only noticeable unemploy

lumber and textile industries, a
state employment official told the
Banner-Herald today.
W. W. Deßeaugrine, manager of
the Georgia State Employment
Service office here, said the good
situation in Athens is a peculiar
one as there has been a noticeable
rise in unemployment throughout
most of the state and nation.
In stating that employment con

nine counties served by the Athens
office remain steady, Mr, Deßeau
grine said that there have been
no noticeable layoffs in heavy in
dustries such as wholesale and re
tai% trade, garment, and public

Mr. Deßeaugrine stated that the
noticeable unemployment in the
textile industry in this area is
probably only a temporary one
as persons in this type of work are
frequently layed off for three to
six weeks for changing machines,
new contracts, and other reasons.

President Refuses To Answer
GOP Bid To Oust Army ‘Aide
WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—(AP)—President Truman
today asked the country to “suspend judgment” on Major
General Harry H. Vaughan until after his Army aide tes
tifies before the Senate five percenter inquiry.
Mr. Truman, at & news conference, directed his reguest
particularly to reporters and editors. -
He was sharply critical of whatl
he calied leaks from the commit
tee and what he described as a
tendency to build up the most
critical testimony against Vaughan
at closed hearings.
Mr. Truman made it clear at the
outset that he did not intend to
answer any questions concerning
the inquiry. :
Reporters thus were unable to.
ask him about a Republican de
mand that he oust Vaughan as
coordinator of Veterans Affairs. |
Senator McCarthy (R-wis) |
voiced the demand that Mr, Tru
man fire Vaughan from the Vete
rans Affairs post.
McCarthy added that as a Re
publican senator he does not feel
he has the right to suggest t{\at
Vaughan be custed from his other
job as the President’s army aide.
Senator Mundt (R-SD) told re
porters, meanwhile, that because
of the way Vaughan has figured
in the Senate investigation “I am
‘inclined to think the President
will have a new military aide
eventually.”
~ Mr. Truman said at his news
conference a week ago that his
‘opinion of Vaughan had not been
changed as a result of testimony
to the special senate subcommit
tee. It is checking on whether im
proper influence has entered into
the handling of government bus
iness. The President ¢n more than
one occasion has stoutly defended
Vaughan against criticism.
Since Mr. Truman’s remarks
last \*leek, Vaughan's name was
continued to bob up every day at
the inquiry. Yesterday the eom
m.ittee got testimony that Vaughan
went to bat, unsuccessfully, in
behalf of 8 New Jersey Company

Speed Plans To Lift 1
More Rent Controls
Housing Authorities Ponder Action !
On Ending Curbs In Borderline Areas
BY BILL ROSS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.— (AP)—Housing authorities
today stepped up plans to lift rent econtrols fro mone-third
of the areas across the nation which still have them.
Federal Housing Expediter Tighe E. Woods called in
his top lieutenants and regional officials to discuss the
situation. 5
Officials seid & determined ef
fort will be made to lift controls
first in so-called ‘“borderline”
areas — those where sufficient
rental housing exists or soon will
be aveilable.
There was no immediate indi
cation which regions they had in
mind, and officials seid such in
fornmmation will not be ready for
several days.
that no community es | then
:gO,Qfi ‘population will be affect
“The cuts will be country-wide,
not concentrated in any one par
ticular section,” he said yester
day in announcing plans for the
action.
Controls will t# raised under
provisions of the prese'ft federal
rent act which expires next July.
It empowers the housing expedit
er to lift ceilings but to slap
them on again i rent gouging
occurs.
Since April, when the law be
came effective, Woods has abol
ished controls in 193 areas. Still
under re&xgation are approxi
mately 1, counties located in
some 590 sreas designatled by the
housing agency.
Drastic Speedup
High-ranking rent officials
acknowledged that the new de
control policy means a drastiC|
speedup of originai plans.
Woods attributed the new ac
tion to a budget slash by Con
gress. He said the cut in funds
for the agency's operation made
it necessary either to fire one
third of the staff or decontrol
one-third of the areas where
ceilings exist.
The cut was made in an appro
priation mesasure written by Sen
ate-House conferees trying to
iron out differences between
separate bills passed by each
house. The House has approved
the conference biil, but the Sen
ate hasn’t taken it up yet.
Senator- Douglas (D.-111.) de
clared yesterday that he will ask
the Senate tc reconsider the
slash. The conference committee
approved a total of $17,500,000
for Woods’ agency as against
$26,750,000 asked by the Budget
Bureau and $21,667,000 originally
voted by the Senate.
Low Figure
Douglas said the figure in the
new bill “is not sufficient to en
able the office of the housing ex
pediter to do an adequate job of
executing the federal rent law.”
While rental office records
show approximately 13,000,000
houses, apartments and rooms
still under rent ceilings, the new
move will not result in the de
control of one-third of that nunr
ber. since the action won’'t be
concentrated in places where
many rental dwellings are locat
ed.
As the federal government
moved to curtail activities in one
housing field it pressed ahead in
another,
