Baruch smilingly in an inter view at his winter home, Bobcaw Barony, near Georgetown, as he commented on a variety of sub jects. The world financier and confi dant of Presidents said it made him feel good for the Russians to put the blame on him in the atomic impasse, and that what others think doesn’t bother him. The elder statesman denied that he had anything to do with the attack of Senator Byrd (D- Va.) on government expendi tures, or the Senate’s action some time ago in refusing to confirm President Truman's nomination of Mon Walgreen as chief of indus trial mobilization. “President „ Truman blames everything on me," he said, add ing that their only public dif ferences were over industrial mobilization and Mr. Truman’s insistence that he became a mem ber of his campaign fund com mittee. “Somethin* I have never done for anybody.

Byrnes into the political picture. “Of course, we are great friends, but I did not advise him to run (for any office, state or national”), he declared. And what about States’ Rights? “How can you have States’ Rights when you keep running to Washington for money?” he ask ed. People always say, he added, I “Why caiTt we get some of thgt | Washington money?” While at Hobcaw Mr. Baruch sits in the sun every morning and after lunch goes bird shooting on his lands in Williamsbury county.
