Brig. Gen. Johnson Hagood, former

artillery, who commanded in France a
brigade of heavy railroad artillery, has
returned to this country with his
brigade, which is to take station at
Camp Eustis. on the James river, be-
low Richmond. Va, where a regular
artillery range has been laid out for
a permanent post.
Gen. Hagood was in Rome during
the exciting period following the
temporary withdrawal of the Italian
delegation from the peace conference
as the outgrowth of the refusal of
the conference to sanction Italy's
claim to F'iume. Anti-American feel
ing was SO much in evidence that the
secretary of the American embassy in
Rome suggested to the American
officers there that 1t would be prudent
for them to remove their uniforms
to avoid attracting attention. Gen.
Hagood, however, declined to do this
on the ground that by compliance he
would probably attract more atten-
ton. having no other clothes with
him.
For his services in the world war.
Gen. Hagood was awarded a distin-
guished service medal and the ribbon
of commander of the Legion Of Honor.

CUT $4,000 SCIENTISTS
PAY LIMIT FROM BILL

The King amendment to the Agri-
culture appropriation bill limiting to
$4,000 salaries which may be paid to
scientific men Of the Department of
Agriculture, who are paid from lump
sums, has been stricken from the bill
by the conferees of the Senate and
House. While the action is tentative,
since the conferees have not yet COM
pleted their work on the bill and will
meet again tomorrow, it Is confidently
expected that the conferees will re-
port the bill without the King amend
ment.
At present there is a limit of $4,000
on salaries paid from lump sum ap-
preparations to these men. 1t was
urged against the King amendment
that 1t would result in the entire dis
organization Of the service since
many Of the scientific experts en-
p1oyed would Immediately resign II
their salaries were cut.

At the session of the American Fed

was adopted recognizing that a broad
program of scientific and technical re-
search is of major importance to the
national welfare. The resolution also
declared such scientific research to be
most potent factor in the ever
increasing struggle of the workers
to raise their standards of living, and
the Importance of this factor must
steadily increase, since there is limit
beyond which the average standard
not progress by the usual methods of
readjustment, which limit can only be
raised by research and the utilization
of the results of research in industry"
The action OF the American Federation

$S75,OOO for St. Elizabeth s,


Representative Garlivan of Massa-
chusetts offered an amendment in
creasing from $S75.0OO. to S997, 900 the
appropriation for St. Elizabeth's Hos
pital. Taking the floor, Mr.. Gallivan
made an impassioned appeal for the
betterment Of conditions at ST. Eliza
beth's and held the attention of the
House while he drew a picture of at
fairs there as he found them on
visit last week.
Il have never had such a heart
breaking feeling in my life as when
l came away from a three-hour visit
with the soldier and sailor boys over
there" said Mr.. Gallivan, his voice
trembling with emotion. He s;Iid that
more than two-thirds of the inma t s
there are boys in uniform who two
years ago when they were sent into
the Army. were in perfect physical
condition, and now are back from
service with minds shattered.
Boys who had fought the subma-
rines, who had served at Chateau
Thierry, at scissors, in the Argonne
everywhere, are among the sufferers
and receiving treatment which Mr..
Gallivan declared would wiring the
heart .of any one to witness.
He declared that they were herded
in with the criminal insane, white
and coiored together without atten-
ton, without proper care, and being
treated in any way except the way
a grateful country would be expected
to treat them.
He said that he found hundreds Of
them herded in crowded corridors, in
the sweet June weather, unable to get
out on the ample grounds and under
the sky. because they had no attend
ants to take them, and had to re-
main virtually prisoners in the hot
and sitting air of the densely packed
corridors.
"Not Treated Like Heroes"
They are not being treated as
criminals" said Mr.. Gallivan.

He pointed out that things will be
worse after July 1. when the nurses
detailed from the Army and Navy are

this figure.
