McKinney, Indianapolis businessman, is the best answer Harry S.

Truman could give them in their prayerful need for a politician ethical standards are be beyond Mr. McKinney reproach. himself has said that the Democratic national chairman should be "like Caesar's wife above suspicion." They begin to ask whether he is an authority on ancient or modern politics and morals. In fact, the same question may yet be asked by several. investigating bodies now showing interest in how he cleaned up $68,000 on a $1,000 investment.

Mr. McKinney insists it was just an "ordinary business investment," such as he frequently makes. So does the man who proposed him to Mr. Truman as a "cleanup chairman" and Frank McHale, veteran Hoosier politician. But further study of that almost fabulous deal has raised several embarrassing questions.

McHale was a co-investor with the Democrats' field generalissimo. Frenzied 'THE Empire off Tractor well company, which paid so to McKinney and McHale was headed by Frank Cohen, a man of questionable reputation. His moral standards were severely castigated by Pres. Truman when he headed the senate's World War II watchdog committee. Cohen then had war contracts under investigation.

It is presumed that the two Hoosier boys did not know of this episode. In Cohen sold McKinney and MeHtale 1,000 shares each of Empire Tractor's common stock at only $1 a share. Less than a year later, Cohen wanted another of his firms to acquire 100 control of Empire Tracpercent, he staged a deal that smacks of frenzied finance. Incidentally, the Cohen firm taking over control was the Empire-South American Industries. Almost all wartime and postwar sales of goods to the LatinAmerican countries have been financed directly or indirectly by the United States government.

paid $75 a share to buy back TO SWING this deal, Cohen the same Empire Tractor stock he had sold to McKinney and McHale for only $1 less than a before. Cohen apparently found the money to make these purchases in the till of Empire Tractor. In plain words, he bought out Empire Tractor stockholders, including the two Hoosier investtors, with Empire Tractor stockholders' own money. support of this conclusion, the" bankruptcy court indicates that this cash represented Empire Tractor's principal assets. For it went bankrupt only a few months later because it could not pay old bills or operation expenses.

So far the creditors have received only 62 cents on the dollar. Although law and ethics do not always parallel, the creditors may obtain more if they win threatened suits against McKinney and McHale on the ground that they helped to "loot" Empire Tractor. That firm's treasury was tapped for $750,000 to buy back the outstanding stock, See OBSERVER -Page 8, Col. 5 Discouraged Geese GRAND RAPIDS, Dec. 27 (UP) -Mrs.

Tonight, Harold E. Stassen will say whether, he plans, to make another for Republican presidential nomination, did, unsuccessfully, in 1944 and 1948.

The men who beat the drums for the University of Pennsylvania president and former Minnesota governor say it will be a "significant political that he will "reveal the position he expects play in the 1952 campaign." There is a strong suspicion among some politicians that Stassen, a man with considerable ambition, will declare himself in on the race for the G. O. P. nomination. Others think he might announce that he will throw his support to Gen.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, who isn't talking about his own presidential aspirations. One thing is for sure, Stassen will not be coming out for Sen. Robert A Taft of Ohio, the first Republican to toss his hat in the 1952 ring. Taft and Stassen are not political buddies.

Stassen is just back from Europe where he huddled with Gen. Ike. As of now, it looks as if Stassen will be for Stassen for the G. O. P.

nomination. But, when and if Ike declares himself, Stassen may recognize a thing and join up with the Eisenhower forces.

PANMUNJOM, Korea, Dec. 27 (UP) -A 30-day drive to complete a Korean armistice ended in failure today, but United Nations and Communist negotiators will keep trying to arrange a cease-fire. They scheduled meetings of both deadlocked armistice subcommittees for 11 a. m.

They no longer will be obliged to return to their Nov. 27 positions if and when a cease-fire finally is negotiated. The cease-fire line and buffer zone so laboriously worked out by UN and Communist staff officers 145 miles across Korea held good only if an armistice were completed by tonight. No new cease-fire line and buffer zone will be drawn until the rest of the armistice terms have been settled. Then a new based line and zone will be traced, on battleline at that time.

27. (P)- American F-86 Sabre jets roared over Northwestern Korea in force today but found nearly 100 Communist MiG-15 jets too timid to fight. The U. S. Fifth air force said the Sabre Jet pilots swung into firing passes against the MiGs but the "very non-aggressive" Reds refused to fight.

The air force said no damage was inflicted by either side. Jets were out in force after a cold wind from Siberia cleared the skies of fog and clouds. The ground front was frozen and quiet Thursday as the 30-day trial period for a truce neared its end. Chilled infantrymen of both sides stayed mainly behind their own lines. Patrols, as always, roamed the no-man's-land between.

27 (P)-Leaders of six European countries meet here today to devise a plan for pooling their military strength into a single, one uniform continental army. They have several points of disagreement which compromises must be worked out. The best guess was that they would be successful on a compromise agreement to create a high commissioner job that would make one man a sort of European defense minister. His job would be to recruit a European army of 43 divisions in the next three years. France and Italy would provide 12 divisions each.

Germany's proposed 14 divisions the five from the Benelux countries- -Belgium, the Netherlands Luxembourg would be stripped-down versions of not more than 13,000 men each. would be merged into international corps and armies and their supply lines would be strictly international. Optimism that agreement could be reached was based mainly on reports that the French would be willing to compromise simply to get the European army formed. The French seem to think organizational differences can be solved later after a trial period of one to three years of actual practice. Bulletins Gov.

In a communication to the city council, Otto E.

Eckert, general manager of the and electric light commissioners, said snow flowing was threatening to clog a cooling condenser at the power plant. "Dumping of large quantities of snow at the Michigan ave. bridge creates a hazard that could easily result in shutting down of the Ottawa st. power plant, which in turn, would lead to shutting off a major part of a the city's supply of electricity furnished to homes and industry," his letter warned. Could Shut off Water "Slush ice and snow are washed into the river water inlet screens and could shut off necessary condensing water needed to keep the plant running." Mr.

1 Pay Boost Action Near Servicemen May Get 10 Percent Increase When Congress Meets WASHINGTON, Dec. 27 (INS) -Swift action is being planned today in the house on a 10 percent pay boost for all servicemen when congress reconvenes Jan. 8.

Chairman Vinson (D-Ga) has written rules committee chairman, Sabath (D-IID), requesting a hearing the first week congress is in session.

Kennan, newly-designated ambassador to Russia, said today he is going to Moscow to "try to do a job" of improving United States-Soviet relations. He declined to predict how much success will "I think it's better to tackle a job first, and talk about it the quiet-spoken career diplomat explained. Kennan passed through the capital, en a route to his Pennsylvania farm retreat, shortly after Pres. Truman announced in Independence, that he will nominate Kennan to succeed Vice Adm. Alan G.

Kirk as U. S. envoy to Moscow. Kirk has asked to retire. Mr.

Truman send the nomination to the senate, early next year, but Kennan he will not actually leave for Russia until late April. It will take that long, he said, to wind up his work at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, N. where he has been on leave from the state department for past year. As chief then state department's policy planning staff and later as counsellor of the department, Kennan established a reputation as the nation's top expert on Russia. Kennan is assured of a cool reception in Moscow.

The Soviet propaganda machine has been grinding out almost continual attacks on him ever since Pres. Truman let it be known several weeks ago that the appointment was under consideration. The latest attack was made by the Communist newspaper Pravda only a few hours before the White House disclosed that Russia had given formal diplomatic approval to Kennan's designation as ambassador.

Benny of Battle Creek. fireman on the train, said Lack's flashlight warning wasn't seen in time to stop the Diesel. Officers said the accident probably could have been avoided if the road had been properly ploughed out by Ingham county road commission crews. They said snowplows failed to clear enough space at the crossing to allow two vehicles to pass without one being forced into a snowbank at the roadside. One state police officer pointed out that Carlton located at the east Haslett limits, is a regular bus route.

and declared that, in its condition, it is dangerous for bus especially at the tracks. "It was lucky that the accident did not happen with a bus load of passengers," he said.
