Quake Hits California Leaving Minor Damage
San Francisco — (U.P.) — Widespread minor damage was reported today from a rolling, 20-minute earthquake and a single aftershock that shook up a large area of Northern California yesterday.
Truman-Brownel Dispute Printed
Washington—(U.P.) The Senate Internal Security subcommittee today published a 200-page pamphlet documenting the dispute sparked by Attorney General Herbert Brownell Jr.'s charge that former President Truman knowingly promoted a Communist spy to high federal office.
Mr. Truman angrily denied the accusation last November. Mr. Brownell, under pressure, said he did not suggest that the president had been disloyal. But he stuck to his charge that the White House had ample warning before Mr. Truman nominated the late Harry Dexter White to be U.S. Executive Director of the International Monetary fund.
Today's pamphlet consists of records of the subcommittee hearings bearing on the Truman-Brownell dispute, but going considerably beyond it. Subcommittee Chairman William K. Jenner (R.-Ind.) said the record now published would show that the Truman administration had ignored repeated FBI exposures of subversive activity by treasury department officials none of whom were fired.
"No less than 28 such reports were made to key government officials by the FBI on Nathan Gregory Silvermaster before he was allowed to resign in 1946." Sen. Jenner said.
Parsons Man Killed in Crash
Parsons, Kan., (UP) Donald Clarence Watson, 22, of Parsons, Kan. was killed yesterday in a highway accident near Parsons. The one-car accident occurred seven miles east of Parsons on U.S. Highway 160.
The quake centered in the Gilroy- Hollister- Watsonville a rea about 100 miles south of San Francisco.
It cracked windows, plaster and walls, buckled floors, shattered chimneys, broke pipes, tumbled merchandise from the shelves of stores and snapped a flagpole atop a Watsonville building.
Only one injury was reported. A 16-year-old girl was hurt slightly when a crowd of 500 persons attending a dog show in Watsonville panicked and rushed for the outdoors.
The aftershock followed at 2:25 p.m. W. C. Marion, University of California seismologist, said an earthquake of such magnitude "continues to give surface waves for some time."
"It shook the teeth out of everything," said Police Sgt. J. S. Brandon of Watsonville. "It sure caused a lot of excitement around here."
The quake was also felt north of San Francisco at San Quentin prison, where authorities said convicts remained calm, and to the east in the populous Oakland-Berkley area.
But it appeared to be most severely felt in the Watsonville area.
There a rope barricade was placed around a four-story building housing the Bank of America, where a crack opened in the granite facade. The inside walls were laced with plaster cracks. Five stores reported damage of $800 each. A water main sprang a leak. Power was off in neighboring communities. Scores of chimneys toppled.
Mr. and Mrs. Paul Fiorovich said the jolt knocked them off their feet and moved every piece of furniture in their new ranch-type home six to eight inches. Mirrors, pictures and everything on their walls were shaken off. Plumbing fixes were yanked from the walls. They estimated it would cost $25,000 "to get our house in shape again."

Bentley Thinks Troops Might Go to Indochina

Washington —(U.P.)— Rep. Alvin4
Washington —00-1- Rep. Aivn M. Bentley (R-Mich.) believes President Eisenhower will request—and get—congressional approval to send U.S. troops to Indochina if it turns out there is no other way to save the country from Communist conquest.
But some congressmen, mainly Democrats, indicate they would flatly oppose such a move.
Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont.) said the U.S. should not be asked to "pull any chestnuts out of the fire" in Indochina.
Sen. Allen J. Ellender (D-Ala.) asserted that terrain and other factors "would make the use of American troops little more than foolish."
Sen. George A. Smathers (D-Fla.) said "Asiatics should man the front lines."
Rep. Bentley, a member of the House Foreign Affairs committee, emphasized that the administration "will do everything in its power not to have to send American boys to fight in the jungles of Indochina."
Sen. William Langer (R-N.D.) said he could not "conceive of the U.S. sending its troops over there to help France keep her colonial empire against the will of the people."
But if there is no other way to keep Indochina from falling to the Communists, he said, "I think the President would ask Congress for the necessary authority and, moreover, he would get it."
His statement came on the heels of reports that France is convinced it cannot continue fighting in Indochina for more than a few months without direct U.S. intervention—regardless of the fate of the embattled fortress of Dien Bien Phu.
Usually reliable sources said they understood the French government gave this view to Secretary of State John Foster Dulles as he passed through Paris last week en route to the Geneva conference.

Jap Physicians Ask for Help
Tokyo — (U.P.) — Japanese doctors treating 23 atom-burned fishermen called today for outside medical advice although they once spurned American offers of help.
Japan's atomic bomb injuries investigation committee announced it would "welcome technical information which may be given from within and without this country."
The announcement sharply reversed the earlier attitude of Japanese physicians, who left two American atomic injury specialists cooling their heels in Tokyo for nearly one month without seeing the patients.
The fishermen, burned in the March 1 hydrogen weapon explosion at Bikini, have shown some improvement, the committee said, but added their bone marrow aliment may become chronic.
"It is known," the committee said, "especially from past cases at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that in some cases the condition turns worse in four to six weeks after being injured and the patient dies subsequently."
The U.S. government earlier offered Japan the services of Dr. James Morton, director of the U.S. Atomic Bomb Casualty commission, and Dr. Merril Eisenbud of the U.S. Atomic Energy commission.
South Carolina was the eighth state to enter the union. It ratified the constitution May 23, 1778.
