Play All Season
Fears Are Allayed
By Draft Director
OKLAHOMA CITY. July 12 —OP)
—Bob Fenimore, great Oklahoma
Aggie football back who twice has
been named All-America, will pjpy
all of next season with the Aggies,
it was learned today.
Fears that Fenimore would be
inducted into thc armed forces und
lost to the Aggie club this fall
were laid to rest today when Col-
onel Wendel Johnson, state draft
director, said lie was following a
recommendation of the Oklahoma
selective service appeals board that
Fenimore be deferred until Oct-
ober 9.
Tlie October 9 deferment date
means Fenimore will be in his
last semester of school when it
rolls around and it has been custo-
mary to permit students to finish
current semesters before being
ordered into tlie armed forces.
Colonel Johnson was asked if
this would apply in Fenimore's
case and he replied:
"Yes. such has been the policy
on others and it also will apply
to Fenimore.’
Acquisitions By
Russia Revealed
Secretary Byrnes
Issues Statement
PARIS. July 12—(A’>—Secretary of
State James F. Byrnes said in a
statement on German reparations
today that the Russians already
have received directly or indirectly
$14,000,000,000 in territory and
equipment.
The Russians through Foreign
Minister V. M. Molotov demanded
$10,000,000,000 reparations of Ger-
many earlier this week.
Byrnes acknowledged that an ac-
curate valuation was difficult, but
he suid the detachment of eastern
Germany, including Silesia, as de-
cided ut the Potsdam conference,

Excused From
Senate's Probe
Key Witnesses In
Inquiry Refuse
To Waive Immunity
WASHINGTON, July 12 —UP)—
Senate war investigators excused
two key witnesses today—Henry M.
Garsson and Benjamin F. Fields—
when they refused to waive Im-
munity in testifying on operations
of an Illinois munitions combine.
In an angry, finger-shaking ex-
change, Chairman James Mead
(Democrat, New York) first told
Fields he was through as a witness
until he was willing to answer
questions frankly and completely.
Then, only moments later. Mead
told oarsson the same thing.
These rapid-fire developments
came on a day when the com-
mittee sought to get Representa-
tive Andrew J. May (Democrat,
Kentucky) as a witness in a public
hearing to testify on his activities
In connection with the combine.
The commltee formally invited
the chairman of the house banking
committee to appear but May de-
clined to tell reporters whether he
would comply.
Witnesses Claim Rirhta
Garsson and Fields, the latter a
former Oklahoman, have been
prominently Identified with the
Eric Basin Metal Products com-
pany and allied firms which pyra-
mided what Mead has called a
"paper empire" into millions In
war contracts.
To each, it was made clear that
they need not testify If they be-
lieved It would incriminate them.
Each insisted on standing by
those rights.
While the committee has power
to compel witnesses to testify, Mead
said it had not followed that po-
licy and would not do so hi these
Instances.
In addressing Garsson, Mead
said he wanted to point out that
"several cases are pending that In-
volve a criminal aspect" under in-
vestigation by the Justice depart-
ment. Tlie committee, he said,

tary pointed out.
