Inquiry ties Field to army post bid in wartime probes
Senator Eastland charged a White House aide pressed for an army intelligence post for Frederick Vanderbilt Field. Testimony showed Field funded the Institute of Pacific Relations and was jailed for contempt after refusing to reveal bail fund contributors for four Communist leaders. McCarran cautioned against rush to conclusions as investigators seized IPR files from a Lee Massachusetts barn and pursued subversive influence in Far Eastern policy.

St Louis July 25 AP The Post Dispatch says William M Boyle Jr chairman of the Democratic National Committee was paid 8000 by American Lithofold Corp after it received a 565000 RFC loan. The paper notes payments began in 1949, with 500 to 1000 monthly to Boyle and Finnegan, a close friend, as federal grand jury probes Finnegan’s affairs.
