Truman Committee Probes Germany and White House Court News
Senators Kilgore and Brewster visited Gen Patch in Germany and conducted long probing sessions with witnesses. General Patch later hosted them at his villa for a formal dinner before resuming investigations. The piece notes high court vacancies and a shift from court obstruction to personnel changes in the Roosevelt era. It also recounts Ugo Carusi’s wartime broadcasts and relatives praising his efforts. A brief war note reports Schweinfurt ball bearing plant recovery and production projections.
