Romance Which Budded During
River Cruise Reaches Climax
ST, LOUIS, Nov. 18.— (AP) —A romance which bud
ded during a cruise down the Potomac river last summer
will culminate in this city by the Mississippi today when a
comely Mid-Western widow becomes the bride of the
Vice-Président of the Unted States.
The eeremony unting 71-year-old Alben W. Barkley
and petite, brunette Jane Rucker Hadley, 33 years his
junior, was set for noon (EST) in the chapel of St. John’s
Methodist Church.
Tax Problems
Discussed At
Institute Here
Relationship between lawyers
and public accountants in ftax
matters was aired at second day
sessiong’ of the Third Georgia Ac
counting Institute here today.
Two tax experts speaking be
fore over 100 Institute delegates
voiced a unanimous opinion that
the disagreement between the law
and accounting professions over
tax problems was headed for an
early settlement,
Howard P. Locke, accountant in
the tax division, U. S. Department
of Justice, pointed out that settle
ment of the dispute lay in the co
ordination of work between ac
countants and lawyers in tax mat
ters.
“The two professions are dif
ferent tools,”’, he said, “but they
re working Por the same end; to
niminize taxes for those to whom
they render services.”
Locke urged the accountants to
fake the lead in clearing up the
controversy which has arisen out
of the income tax law., He also
stressedq cooperation between
Georgia accountants and Georgia
lawyers as an important result in
ettling the national. dispute. Such
cooperation, he said, will result in
profitable practice by both pro
tessions and benefit the general
public.
Erase Line
_ Earlier, W, A. Carter, partner of
Mount and Carter, Atlanta, ac
countants, had expressed a similar
opinion, *©
“The line between law and ac
counting must be erased,” he said,
“permitting the maximum amount
of teamwork by both professions
in tax matters.”
Carter cited the New York
Bercu Case and the wedge break
ing up the cooperative efforts of
tax accountants and tax attor
neys.
“The key to restoring this uni
'y,” he pointed out, “may lie in
the concept that there is a basic
listinet between tax settlement
ind tax litigation.”
“The first is clearly a part of
the administrative process of col
lecting the government’s revenues.
Che second is clearly a matter for
the courts, It seems wholly proper
for accountants to represent tax
payers in settlement negotiations.
Most accountants would insist on
the collaboration of a lawyer
;fi'hen the taxpayer expected to li
igate.”

j A]thgugh the wedding has been
one of the most widely publicized
of any in recent years, only mem
‘bers of the immediate families of
the bridal pair were invited. They
numbered thirty - four. About
twice ‘as many press and radio
representatives were on hand.

‘was the officiating minister, as
sisteti%%y the Rev. Albea Godbold,
pastor ‘of the church. The simple
ceyemony called. for- She sném
ring service with the word “obey”
omitted from the bride’s vow. Both
bride, and bridegroom are Metho
dists.
The chapel was decorated with
evergreens and the organ had been
specially tuned in preparation for
the big event. The church is a
beautiful structure in the western
part of the city.
David M. Barkley of Paducah,
Ky., Barkley’s son by a previous
marriage, was best man, and the
only attendant. Mrs. Hadley chose
her brother, William M. .Rucker
of West Palm Beach, Fla., to give
her away. :
Famify Luncheon
Immediately following the cere
mony an informal family luncheon
was planned at the home of Mrs.
T. M. Sayman, friend of Mrs.
Hadley, with a limited number of
press, radio and television repre
sentatives permitted to attend. A
three-tiered wedding cake about
2 1-2 feet high had been prepared
for the bride to cut.
The newlyweds then planned to
leave on their honeymoon for
“Shangri-La,” as “The Veep”
called it. Rumor has it that they
are going to Key West, Fla., where
they will shortly be joined by
President Truman and his family.
After the honeymoon the cou
ple will visit Barkley’s Paducah
home, “The Angeles,” and later go
to Washington where a new and
strong (to her) social whirl awaits
the new second lady of the land.
The Vice President arrived here
late yesterday by plane from
Washington. He was met at the
airport by Mrs. Hadley and a large
crowd of newsmen, photographers
and others. With his bride-to-be
at the wheel, the smiling Veep
drove away in the new $3,000
convertible he recently gave her
as a wedding gift. A brief wed
ding rehearsal at the Church was
followed by dinner at the home of
friends.
In addition to the younger Bark

members of the two families here
for the ceremony included Bark

Seeking Single Plan
By The Associated Press
Representatives of 12 North At

ping a single strategic defense plan
in Washington today. :
Under the chairmanship of Sec

gates are considering secret plans
drafted by their military officials
to defend the Western World.
The Shah of Iran, whose country
borders on the Soviet Union, has

World News with Gen. Omar
Bradley and oth-

————_ He is discussing
his country’s need for increased
military assistance.
Iran is not a member of the
North Atlantic Defense grouping.
However, it shares in the wvast
American arms aid program for
friendly nations. The young Shah
‘said vesterday his country’s rela
tions with Russia had improved
\ somewhat recently.
The State Department is expect
ed to make new efforts to obtain
the release of Consul General An
lgus Ward, now languishing in a
Chinese Communist prison in Muk

terday Ward’s detention is an out
‘rage.
The Communist radio said Ward
was jailed with four members of
his staff on Oct. 24 because he beat

No Recognition
The United States has not rec
ognized the new Communist re
gime. Secretary of State Acheson
said he would not even consider
recognition while Ward is impris

have tied themselves closely to
Moscow and the Kremlin has full
diplomatic relations with them and
is championing the new republic’s
cause at the United Nations.
Following a U. N. General As

Missing In Five Disasters

An Air Force B-29 plane crashed today in a takeoff
from Tampa, Fla., the sixth B-29 the Air Force has lost in

Bermuda Wednesday.
Search for the plane missing off
Bermuda, with 20 aboard, con
verged on a spot about 345 miles
northeast of Bermuda after two
flares were reported sighted in the
area and faint radio signals were
heard. Fifty or more planes en

$99,000 Hangs
On Just Comma
VANCOUVER, B. C, Nov. 17—
(AP)—Alfred Seigerstrom has his
fingers crossed—a gomma may be
worth $99,000 to him.
The comma might echange his
SI,OOO legacy from James Thom
son, millionaire hotel owner, to
SIOO,OOO.
Seigerstrom, manager of Thom
son’s beer parlor, was included in
the $900,00G will of the hotel own~
er. In the will it was written
$1,000,00. First interpretation tag
ged the second comma as being
meant for a period.
But Fireman Gilbert Campbell,
chief heir, and due for about $300,-
000, says he remembered that gn
unsigned copy of the will stated
Seigerstrom was marked down for
SIOO,OOO.
Because no other amounts giv
en in the will include a “cents”
column, legal opinion is that a
court probably would uphold Seig
erstrom’s claim.

“Had Too Much Wine,” Child Slayer Vows
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18—(AP)—Muttering
“T don’t deserve to live,” pasty-faced Fred Stro
ble, a 66-year-old baker, braced himself in a
county jail cell today for swift action by the
grand jury in the sex slaying of six-year-old
Linda Joyce Glucoft.
Stroble, the grandfather of one of Ligda’s
favorite playmates, poured out his sordid story
to District Attorney William Simpson as a 48-
hour fugitive search throughout the West and
into Mexico ended yesterday on a stool in a
downtown Los Angeles bar—about five blocks
from Central Police Station.
Simpson said Stroble, formally charged with
murder, admitted that he strangled and bludg
eoned the pudgy little girl to death when she
recisted his imunroper advances.
“I had been drinking all day—wine. I wouldn’t
have done it if I hadn’t been drunk,” Stroble was
quoted, Simpson said the ashen, gray-haired
grandpa—who liked to buy kids ice cream and
candy—then told of enticing Linda into a bed
room of the home where he lived with his daugh=
ter, her husband and their two cildren. The
story:
“I was playing with her . . . (Simpson said this
involved an act of molestation, but not assault)
.. . when she started to scream. She was resist
ing me.
“This wasn’t the first time. I had played with
her once before,

Call For T - H Action
Truman, Standing Clear Of Dispute,
Cites Action As Emergency Measure
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.—(AP)—President Truman’s
statement that he will use the Taft-Hartley law in the coal
dispute if there’s an emergency brought an operator cry
today that there already is one.
Mr. Truman took his stand at his news conference late
yesterday; he would not say whether he thinks an emer
gency would come with another walkout of the miners
November 30, That is the end of the present working per
iod decreed by President John L. Lewis of the United
Mine Workers.
Joseph E. Moody, president of
the Southern Coal Producers As
sociation, replied from Lexington,
Ky., that “there already is a na
tional emergency.” Moody added
in a slpeechh that Mr. '{ruman “og(-)
viously up %flns a Nov,
deadline evu&' ough heNdenies
the existence of a national emer
gency.” o
Mr. Truman’s stand — keeping
out of the dispute for the present
—left the way open for a new
peace meeting between Lewis and
the operators before the present
truce runs out. However, no imme
diate conference was arranged
and Moody said he saw no present
hope for resuming contract nego
tiations.
Mr. Truman surprised most
people watching the coal situation
by flatly stating he would not step
in until an emergency arose, and
was relying on the Taft-Hartley
act in that event. The law requires
for an 80-day court injunction to
keep produciion going il necessary
to the public welfare. He has used
the law before although it was
passed over his veto.
Most of the President’s advisers
had suggested the appoinment of
a fact-finding board that would
look into the dispute and recom
mend a solution. Mr, Truman had
done this in the dispute between
CIO President Philip Murray and
the steel industry.
But Mr. Truman decided yester
day to sit tight and- allow Lewis
and the operators to try to make
their own terms before the strike
was due to resume.

come easily and fast,
“The little girl did not suffer too much. She
was dead within eight or ten minutes.”
That was about 5 p. m, Monday, Stroble said.
Linda’s body was found the next morning and
the search started.
Speaking in a low monotone as stenographers
and a recording machine took his statement,
Stroble tcld how he boarded an Interurban
train for Ocean Park and stayed in cheap hotels
at the beach city for three nights.
SUICIDE THOUGHT
He said he had thought about suicide, by
Jumping off the pier, but decided yesterday
morning to return to Los Angeles and give him
self up.
He had just returned on a bus and gone into
the bar for a glass of beer when a laundryman,
Bill Miller, spotted him and told rookie traffic
policeman, Arnold W. Carlson. Carlson con
firmed the identification and Stroble submitted
without protest.
“I don’t deserve to live,” Simpson quoted Stro
ble at one point. "aA'ny ma? vg‘ho would do a thing

Must Stand Trial
NEW YORK, Nov, 18-—{ADP) .
Federal Judge Sylvester J. Ryan
ruled today that Judith Coplon
must stand trial with Russian En
gineer Valentin Gubitchev on spy
conspiracy charges.
Ryan denied a motion by the ex
government girl's lawyer, Archi
bald Palmer, to hold that the trial
would put his client in double
jeopardy—that is, put her on trial
twice for the same offense.
Miss Coplon already has been
convicted in Washington on a sim
ilar charge involving the theft of
official secrets for passing on to
the Russians.
The judge directed that she and
Gubitchev must go on trial to
gether next Tuesday.
And the sober-faced Gubitchev,
who had refused up to now to en
ter any defense, echanged his mind
and decided to have a lawyer rep
resent him..
