6. Calling a new tariff cutting
confergnce some time next year to
reduce duties on British exports to
the United States.
The steps are intended as stop
ap measures to ease the drain on
‘*gfl ki i's " dwingling reeerves. But
officials agree thev will not by
themselves solve Britain’s long
range problem: Its inability to
earn enough dollars to pay for
what it buys from the United
States and Canada.
Basic Solution s
The basic solution to this is be
lieved to be an intensive drive by
the Labor Government to reduce
British production costs and thus
make it easier for British pro
ducts to compete in the world
market.
This long-rang problem will be
handed to the foreign and finance
ministers of the three ggvernments
meeting here Sept. 7 to study the
dollar-pound ecrisis.
Despite the progress made at
the fact finding talks, officials of
the three governments are still
pessimistic about the chances of
finding any long-range solution at
the current meetings.
Thus far, officials said, there
has been no mention of the possi
bility of devaluating the pound
sterling—a move most American
officials' believe is necessary if
Britain is to reverse its econcemic
slump quickly.
FIRE CALL

near the College Avenue Bridge

VARIATION ON AN OLD THEME
“Bill,” a mean old Georgia mule, bites startled Willie
Garrison in the tummy at Atlanta. And this is the sec
ond time the ornery cuss has bitten the seven-year-eld
lad. Previously Bill sank his teeth into Willie’s right
arm (unote bandage), shook him and flung him several
feet. Willie was treated for severe mule bite. The next
day a photographer assigned to illustrate the story
asked Willie to pose with the critter. Willie was reluct
ant but he ‘agreed to walk past the mule so the photog
rapher could get a picture. And look what happened—
a variation of the familiar “dog bites man’’ theme. Only
this time Willie was only pinched hard—and scared. No
damage was done.— (AP Photo.)
Gov't Puts Squeeze
On Five Percenters
New Plan Of Action Is Readied As
Senate Probers Pause For Breather
WASHINGTON, BSept. 2. — (AP) — The government
started squeezing close the doors on five percenters today
as probing senators paused to take stock in their search
for improper influence in federal contracting,
Chairman Hoey (D.-N.C.) of the Senate investigations
committee recessed the inquiry yesterday for at least a
month while the staff studies the evidence taken thus far.
The government’s chief purch
asing officer, Jess Larson, assured
the Senators before the hearings
closed that the middleman in gov=
ernment contracting is on the way
out.
Larson, who heads the new
governmend services administra
tion, testified that he, Secretary of
Defense Johnson and Budget
Director Frank Pace had worked

tracting easier for small busi
nessmen.
Unethical firms will be black
listed to federal employes warned
about taking favors, he said, add
ing:
“It is my honest opinion that
this procedure, together with the
policy of decentralizing procure
ment and the maintaining of ade
quate, courteous and efficient in
formation centers will cause ihe
so-called five percenter to wane
and die because there will be no
need for his services.”
The term five percenter has
been used to describe those who
seek out government contracts for
others for a fee—usually five per
cent. - That activity isn’t illegal,
but the Senate group has been
searching for signs that it in
volved “influence- peddling.”
When the inquiry resumes, Wil
liam Helis, oil operator and racing
figure, probably will take over the
spotlight which centered during
the first phase of the investiga
tion on President Truman’s mili
tary aide, Maj. Gen. Harry H.
Vaughan.
His name came up in the hear
ings repeatedly—usually linked
with that of the president’s aide.
Sen. McGarthy (R.-Wis.) said—
and Helis’ son denied—that the oil
man had an interest in a Cali
fornia race track which got scarce
building materials last year after
Vaughan had talked to housing of
ficiais.
