International News Service.

Amazed by the disclosures which
came 10 their desks today I'm the com.
prehensive report of the special com
mittee which has just completed a
sweeping investigation OF the Govern
ment's treatment OF sick and disabled
world war veterans. members OF the
Senate were In a mood to give thought
full consideration TO forthcoming pro
posals for remedial legislation.
VIII Introduce Bill.
The investigating committee. headed
by Senator Sutherland (Rep) OF West
Virginia. and operating under a reso'
luton sponsored by Senator Walsh
Dem) OF Massachusetts,, announced
that a bin with provisions designed TO
furnish practical relief in line with
its specific recommendations would be
introduced In the Senate at an early
date. The committee will continue itr
inquiries. and plans TO make an addi-
tional report on the subject OF COM
pensation ratings and payments.
Legislative proposals OF the commit
tee will include:
additional hospitals.
2. Transfer 10 the Veterans Bu-
reau Of all hospital facilities not
needed for the army, navy, or VET
erans of other wars.
8. Organization OF a chaplains'
csrps In the Veterans Bureau.
4. Establishment of cemeteries at
all Government hospitals.
5. Adoption Of definite limits anil
standards for training veterans.
6. Adequate appropriation TO en-
courage continuation Of war risk In
surance policies.
Z. Amending OF various soldier
relief acts with n view to extending
greater privileges to incapacitated
veterans.
THE sad truth" the committee re-
ported In setting forth an extensive
and startling array OF instances of
mistreatment and mismanagement in
Government hospitals and vocational
schools" is that instead of receiving
that tender and efficient care to which
they were entitled, many unfortunate
disa bled veterans have been treated
shabbily and abominably."
