221458 04:41:12 – 04:44:03 1949 The Telenews Daily - Congressinal Probe (Harry H. Vaughan Testifies)
04:41:37 Senate Committee w/ Joseph McCarthy, Karl Mundt, Margaret Chase Smith sitting beside Chairman Senator Clyde Hoey (Democrat, North Carolina). Photographers.
04:41:45 CU General Harry H. Vaughan, reads statement (SOF): “The freezers which have been discussed here were a gift from two old friends of mine. This gift was an expression of friendship & nothing more. There is absolutely no connection between this gift & any assistance I have given these friends. At no time have I taken action as a member of the White House staff in exchange for a gift or other favor. With respect to John Maragon, I have known him since 1941 when he was employed by a railroad company to assist in obtaining transportation for members of Congress. I have had no business connections w/ Mr. Maragon. I have never authorized him to represent or speak for me, or the White House, in any matters pertaining to my duties. Upon his request, I have given him assistance in matters when it appeared entirely proper to do so. There is nothing to conceal in my record as a public servant. I will answer any questions you gentlemen may wish to ask. I have discharged my duty honestly, & to the best of my ability.”
Senator: “Have you ever, at any time, received any fee or commission, or shared w/ anybody else in receiving any fee or commission in connection w/ any of those operations?” Vaughan: “No so, I did not. It had never occurred to me. My duties at the White House in that connection, were the continuation of practically the same duties here in Senator Truman’s office.” Senator: “In any of these matters did you have occasion to advise the President of what was transpiring, or did you do it just on your own?” Vaughan: “I have never had any occasion, that I can recall, to advise the President on any action I have taken in any particular instance; I didn’t think it was necessary because I was performing according to the President’s instructions that he had given to me before. He had never had occasion to change them, & I would just continued to operate in the same way. And I felt sure he would be the first one to tell me if he wanted me to change.” People standing at end of hearing.

14:32:17 McCarthy in front of three mics reads statement: “A few days ago I read that President Eisenhower expressed the hope that by election time in 1954 the subject of Communism would be a dead & forgotten issue. The raw, harsh, unpleasant fact is that Communism is an issue; and will be an issue in 1954. Truman’s diatribe against those who expose Communists is the best proof of that. We should remember that practically every issue which we face today from high taxes to the shameful mess in Korea is inextricably interwoven with the Communist issue.”
