Wounded Men Often Evacuated
By.An Few Hours After Injury

can all the way to Africa. The
difficulty of breathing experienced
by men with chest wounds can be
overcome at most heights, however,
by administration Of oxygen.
Unless there are cases aboard re-
quiring special constant attention air
surgeons. seldom accompany these
flights. Instead they examine each
case as 1t Is brought from the battle
dressing station or evacuation nos
pital, and prescribe the maximum al
titude which will be safe. Each
flight is accompanied by a graduate
nurse, specially trained at the School
OF Air Evacuation at Bowman Field
Louisville, KY. On an average each
OF them spends 80 hours a month in
the air. She usually has one Medi-
cal Corps enlisted man to help her
with heavy jobs and mental cases
who may become unruly If the effects
OF the sedative, usually administered
before starting, wear off in flight.
The general procedure has been to
give wounded men necessary emer-
gency treatment at a field dressing
station which may be under direct
flre and then get them back to an
evacuation hospital where they can
be cared for until it is possible to
move them back to a base hospital.
In the Sicilian campaign the evacua-
ton hospitals often were under shell
fire. This was far from desirable
because of the danger of the entire
plant being wrecked by a random
shell. Besides it was hard on the
nerves of doctors performing deli
cate operations, and on the morale
OF the wounded.
The evacuation craft are ordinary
Army Transport planes, all of which
are fitted up with litters. Each
nurse cares for about l8 litter cases.
The planes go to the front loaded
with supplies and would return
empty were it not for the evacuation
work first proposed before the war

ON MARITIME
COMMISSION
Aiken Scratches Surface
Of Most Revolt
ing StanddI"

WASHINGTON, March 30-Ac-
cusing the Maritime Commission on
seven alleged acts of mismanage-
ment and collision, Senator Harold
Aiken told the Senate today he
had "only scratched the surface OF
what was destined to become the
most revolving scandal in the his
tory of national expenditures"
Fighting against the Senate con-
firmation of the Presidents re-
nomination of Rear Admiral Emory
S. Lands appointment for a six
year term as chairman of the Com
mission, Aiken charged among other
things that the Commission requl-
sitioned ships for sale to the Army
and Navy and reimbursed itself on
certain costs from the funds OF
these departments in manner not
authorized by law"
Aiken said the total of such
unauthorized augmentation OF its
own funds apparently is over
S1OO, 100000. He said the Commits
sion failed to recapture excess pro-
fits from shipbuilders although re-
CURED to do so by law, that the
Commission paid exorbitantly high
prices for old ships and insured
ships for excessive values.
