Woman May Be
Assistant Secy.
Of Defense
WASHINGTON, (£>)—Mrs. An
na M. Rosenberg of New York has
been recommended by Secretary
of Defense Marshall for the high
est post ever held iby a woman in
the military branch of the gov
ernment — assistant secretary of
defense.
Mrs. Rosenberg has yet to be
appointed by President Truman
and confirmed . by the Senate. A
defense department announce
ment indicated, however, that
both of these developments are
considered a certainty. It said:
“Mrs Rosenberg, in addition to
performing the duties of assistant
secretary of defense, will special
ize in matters related to manpow
er and personnel policy. Both sub
jects in which she is an acknowl
edged authority”
She would succeed Paul H. Grif
fith, a former national command
er of the American Legion. Grif
fith resigned his defense depart
ment post last September after
President Truman dropped Louis
Johnson from the cabinet office
now held by George Marshall.
I Grand Jury indicts
Collazo for Attempt
On Truman’s Life
WASHINGTON, (JP)—A federal
grand jury today indicted Oskar
Collazo, 37-year-old Puerto Rican,
for murder in connection with
the Nov. 1 attempt on President
Truman’s life.
The charged is based on the kill
ing of Leslie Coffelt, 4Q, White
House guard, when Collazo and
Griselio Torresola tried to shoot i
their way into Blari House, the
President’s temporary residence.
Torresola was killed in the rain
of bullets from guards which fell
ed Collazo with wounds in the!
chest and shoulder.
Conviction of murder carries
the possibility of a death sentence
in the District of Columbia.
From the stories of eye-wit
nesses, there is some evidence that
Torresola actually shot Coffelt.
Put under District of Columbia
law when two or more persons en
gage in a felony and kill someone,
all are considered equally liable
to charges of murder.
The grand jury’s four-count in- j
dictment charged the t uerto Ri

San Bernardino
SAN BERNARDINO, Calig. UP)
Hundreds fled their homes in the
darkness today as a fire swept by
50-mile-an hour winds threatened
much of the city’s northern resi
dential sector.
Firemen said it was almost out
after a six-hour fight.
At one point, police reported
hundreds of homes burning, while
pajama clad residents—many of
them women and children—play
ed garden hoses on roofs. But as
dawn came, only one home on a
hilltop appeared a complete loss.
A half-dozen others were badly
damaged and spot bums and
charred paint showed on many
more.
A two-mile strip several blocks
wida in places, but largely brush
land near the foothills, was black
ened.

the United States, who was then
within said dwelling and build
ing.”
The additional counts charged
the two with felonious assault on
the Blair House guard derail and
on members of the secret service
assigned there to guard the life of
the President. *
Finally, there was the charge
that Coffelt was murdered.
The grand jury presented its
indictment before U. S. judge Ed
ward A. Tamm who earlier this
week appointed a defense attorney
for Collazo after being advised
that the Puerto Rican is without
funds.
