Lt. Vivian Gets
Distinguished
Flying Cross
A former University student, Lt.
John P. Vivian, has been awarded
the Distinguished Flying Cross for
"heroism and extraordinary achieve-
ment in aerial flight."
The naval citation, issued from
the vice admiral of the Navy, went
on to describe the lieutenant's ac-
tion, saying "As patrol commander
of a Ventura bomber on a weather
flight toward the Kurile islands," he
"sighted Shimushu island clear of
fog from his designated turning
point."
Unescorted, without much reserve
fuel, and realizing that there was a
possibility of enemy fighters and
anti-aircraft fire, Lt. Vivian con-
tinued to approach the island and
successfully located and photograph-
ed a Japanese airfield, hitherto rel-
atively unknown to the Americans.
Before entering the Navy in July,
1939, Lt. Vivian studied aeronautical

By the Assoiated Press
MASON, July 12-Defense attor-
neys in the legislative graft trial
today completed nearly 20 hours of
searching cross-examination of Maj.
Charles F. Hemans without appar-
ently breaking any substantial holes
in his account of paying bribes to
lawmakers.
Special prosecutor Kim Sigler
planned to return Hemans to the
witness stand tomorrow for a brief
re-direct examination to stop up
whatever cracks the battery of de-
fense attorneys may have left after
Olivera Tells
Of Cuba's Part
In War Effort
The great success of the Pan Am-
erican Conference in Havana in 1940
which formed the basis of consequent
economic and military Latin-Ameri-
can cooperation with the United
States was due largely to the efforts
and initiative of Cuba, Dr. Raul
Dlivera said in a lecture yesterday.
"Cuba has also cooperated to a
great extent in the prevention of
espionage and has led the way in
the extermination of Nazi activities
in Latin-America", Dr. Olivera added.
Military Agreement Signed
In 1943, Cuba signed an up-to-
date secret naval and military and
naval agreement giving the United
States complete use of its facili-
ties including several military bases,
he continued.
"Although Cuba hasn't been al-
lowed to send an expeditionary force
to the European continent, a large
number of Cubans have enlisted in
the Canadian air forces and later in
the military forces of the United
States after the doors of the coun-
try were opened tof oreign enlist-
ments," he said.
"To date, 2,000 Cuban volunteers
are serving in Allied armies," he ad-
ded.
"The Cuban army is efficiently
patrolling the coasts and the subma-
rine menace in the Carribean has
been greatly reduced", Dr. Olivera
said. "In addition, many army and
navy men have been sent to the
United States for further training",
he added.
U. S. Aids Government
He stated that the Cuban govern-
ment has permitted the United
States to dictate the direction of the
country's economic effort and that
the whole production of Cuba has
been organized in view of giving the
Allied nations the utmost support
in the conduct of the war.
Discussing the recent presidential
election in Cuba, Dr. Olivera stated
that the electoral law was drawn
up in a/democratic way and that the
election was conducted in an honest
and non-partisan way.

esses is still open, Miss Barbara

for the better part of three days,
Haggerty Cross Exams Hemans
James E. Haggerty and Walter M.
Nelson, attorneys for four finance
company officials accused of provid-
ing bribe money for lawmakers,
chipped away at Hemans' testimony
throughout the day, using his state-
ments at earlier preliminary exami-
nations in an attempt to trip him
up on details of his bribery story.
Haggerty, adding up the list of
money Hemans said passed through
his hands, contenGea teat by * He-
mans own testimony he had ac-
counted for between $2,900 and
$1,900 more in bribes, expenses and
compensation than he testified to
receiving from his finance company
clients.
Hemans Admits Intermingling Funds
Attacking the validity of a mem-
orandum of bribe payments for leg-
islative defendants, which Hemans
as described as a "prospectus" for
his clients, Nelson drew from He-
mans a denial that the list actually
was a report of his agents as to the
amounts of money they had been
paid for supposed contribution to
lawmakers.
Hemans testified that he had in-
termingled funds from the Benefi-
cial Management Corporation of
Newark, N. J., and the so-called
finance company "group" to pay
bribes on legislation on which the
two organizations were supposed to
be opposed.
State Elections...
(Continued from Page i)
the Republican primary by a margin
of more than 40,000 votes, with fewer
than a tenth of the state's voting
districts still missing.
Fry, in a narrower race, bested
William J. 'Cody, Wayne County Cir-
cuit Court commissioner, for the
nomination by a margin which hung
around the 8,000 mark with more
than seven-eighths of the election
precincts reporting, while the third
Democratic gubernatorial aspirant,
Earnest C. Brooks of Holland, trailed
far behind.
Thus the November general elec-
tion will match Fry against Kelly,
who had no opponent in the primary
for governor, and Brown will face off
with James H. Lee, assistant corpora-
tion counsel of Detroit.
