Mastery Of Future
Aim Of War, McNutt
Tells Surgeons
Medical Men Facing
Double Duty, He Says,
In Protecting Public

BY The Associated Press.
ATLANTA, March 9.-"We fight
today not for the easy comfort of
Yesterday. but for the mastery of
tomorrow
In those blunt words Paul V. Nc
Mutt. Federal security administrator,
summed up the impact of the war
in an address at the opening meet
ing of the Southeastern Surgical
Congress here today.
This is no war for advantage"
he declared. This is battle for
the world Not who shall rule, but
how. The free way of life for you
and your children and your chill
dren's children is the stake of VIC
tory
He warned the physicians and
surgeons attending the congress that
many of them are going to be called
on to do double duty but not neces-
sarilv in uniform. The first $780,
600 men in todays Army will need
$4,000 doctors and dentists to keep
them in fighting trim and more Will
be needed as additional men are
called to the colors.
There is no intention of draining
local communities of essential ply
sicians who will be needed to care
for the sick and to supervise health
facilities, Mr.. McNutt declared.
Physicians. nurses and sanitary
engineers will be as badly needed in
the boom towns around new defense
industrial plants as they are IN
camps or on the fighting front. And
the physicians who are not called
into service may have to take the
places of one or two other men In
keeping a community healthy which,
he added, is just as important as
maintaining the health of the Army.
The state of the Nations health
was brought sharply to public at
tention by the medical records IN the
first draft. the administrator oe-
clared. and the record OF teeth,
ewes heart, ears and disease lnfec-
ton is a tragic commentary upon
Americas health. 1t is tragic be-
cause of the great lag between what
we can do and what we have done.
The big problem today in con-
verting from peacetime industry to
wartime production is to provide
housing. sanitation, transportation
and schools in small cities which
may Jump from 900 population to
5000 or more within a single month
Mr.. McNutt declared and at the
same time TO keep control of disease
outbreaks. including venereal dis
eases. which formerly have accom-
panied almost every maSSlng OF
troops and defense workers. He IN
dicated that this problem was al
ready we'll under control.
MT. McNutt added that the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation IS
ready to step into any town or city
to eliminate prostitution If local
authorities do not handle the prob
lem properly.

Strike at Enemies
Only Strike Allowed,
Maverick Declares
w. P. B. Division Chief
Stresses Sacrifices
To County Officials
Earlier Story on Page A-6.)

A unified striking at America S
enemies is the only strike the
American people will tolerate, Maury
Maverick, War Production Board di-
vision chief, this afternoon told the
National Association OF County Of
ficials at the Washington Hotel.
i would not take single right
away from labor" the speaker said
But l think labor should work
from 48 to so hours a week to save
the blood of their own children .
Remarking he turned down a re-
quest for funds for a dramatic arts
building. Mr.. Maverick said the
only way we are going to save the
culture. rights, liberties and lives OF
the American people is by killing
Japs and Germans"
Urges Sacrifices.
Urging representa- tives of local
governments TO impress the people
back home with the fact that each
of us must make greater sacrifices
than were made in the Revolution
ary War or the Civil War. if we
are to win this deadly war" Mr.
Maverick said effective civilian gov
ernment and home front morale are
essential to military success. LAS
to picket lines, constitutional rights
and postwar problems, he added,
we won't have any unless we win
this war: those matters will be de-
cided by Hitler and the Japanese
Emperor if we lose"
Any Government official. Demo-
crat or Republican. who plays cheap
politics in this crisis. he continued
is just as much a traitor as any
fifth columnist.'
Resolutions Considered.
William A. Smith. association
president, said resolutions would be
adopted covering four problems
namely: Exemption of county goy-
ernment employees from social Sc
curity taxes because counties have
their own retirement systems func-
tioning; handling of all priorities by
one agency; treatment of aliens and
legal responsibility for damages
growing out of injury to civilian de-
Tense volunteers.

NORFOLK, Va, March 9.-An
Axis submarine torpedoed and sank
the 7,878-ton Brazilian freighter
Arabutan off the North Carolina
coast Saturday night and submerged
just two minutes before United
States Navy planes appeared over
head, members of the freighter's
crew related here today.
Fifty-four members of the crew
escaped in four lifeboats and were
rescued n hours later by a ship
which landed them at Norfolk. One
crew member. Mandel Florencio
Goimbra, a hospital attendant, is

Goimbra, asleep in his cabin, was
killed when the torpedo struck the
ship aft on the starboard side.
Third Officer Jose Lobo de Me-
deiras told newsmen he believed the
Arabutan's attacker was an Italian
submarine. There were no signs on
the submarine to indicate its ma
tionality.

Economy

tol Hill was aroused by the project
and the item of S285 900 was left out
when the Senate Appropriations
Committee refused to lift the limi-
tation on the amount the President
could allocate this year.
This money. however, could be
made available by July if the COM
mittee approves the House allot-
ment. The President gave the o.
G. r. 100000 for the current fiscal
year in addition to the appropri-
alton made by Congress But for
this year he was limited to this
amount.
The Independent Offices bill for
the new fiscal year does not ex-
preSsly limit the amount the Presi-
dent may allocate to the agency
above the appropriation. though the
House Appropriation Committee, in
it's report to the House, expressed
belief that such an emergency allot-
ment should not exceed 100000.
Faces Personnel Reduction.
Mr. Mellett said today although he
hoped Congress still would make
available the s285,0O0 needed for
equipment and additional personnel
in the new building, If it refused,
the agency simply would have to
effect sufficient economies else
where to meet the expense. which
would mean curtailing its services.
Senator Tydings. Democrat, of
Maryland, chairman of a special
Senate Appropriations Subcommit-
tee named to Streamline the Gov
ernment for war purposes, said to-
day on his return to the city:
"Inasmuch as the subcommittee
is now making study of the whole
Government structure, of each
agency in its relation to other
agencies. it would seem wise to take
no action looking to the expansion
of any one until the study is COM
pleted, particularly if 1t is not en-
gagged in defense work."

The possibility was not discounted
that the Commissioners might be

temporary housing for the evacuees.

Senator Murdock. Democrat. of
Utah told the Senate earlier that
Senator Byrd should not have ap-
pealed to Secretary Of Agriculture
Wickard not to make contracts un-
der the Sugar Act pending a con-
gressional investigation.
Senator Murdock said that sugar
beet planting already was beginning
in California under the quotas es-
tabliShed under the present law. He
said no Senator ought to assume
the authority to tell an executive
department head to delay acting in
compliance with any law until it
had been repealed or modified.
Senator Byrd had urged that no
benefit payments be made under the
act pending an inquiry into the
sugar situation by the Senate
Finance Committee and Until the
Committee on Nonessential Ex-
penditures, of which Senator Byrd
is chairman, had looked into the
necessity for such payments.
