thus far of the chorus is due largely

Gleanings From the 335th
Station Hospital
BY PVT. JOHN III. GORDON

The approach of the holiday sea-
son found the 335th at a new home
in the WACville area. The former
home of this unit had been in Tent
City on the Old Post. There, with
the help of their officers, the men
tried to make life as pleasant and
convenient as possible without the
more adequate facilities of the newer
location. 1t is actually true, now,
that many of the men are sorry
that they had to leave Tent City
and move into the more up-to-date
environment for the quiet atmos-
phere of Tent City will be missed.
Now for little chat about how
the men spent their Thanksgiving
In the morning we "policed-up" and
'policed-up" and "policed-up." Hav-
ing just moved into the area. we had
to "get on the ball" to make things
presentable in order to do justice
to that fine turkey dinner.
We guys in the 335th are sincerely
sorry that we were unable to give
the WACS a dinner as most of the
surrounding units did. Due to the
fact that we had just moved in and
did not have things properly ar
ranged, we could not accommodate
them.

Senate Approves Plan
To Transfer Doctors

The Senate has approved and put
up to the House plan to get med
ical aid to war-congested towns by
providing moving expenses to doc
tors or dentists who will agree te
remain at the new location for 9
specified period of time.
Senator Russell, Democrat. OF
Georgia, acting for the Appropria-
tions Committee, overcame brief but
determined opposition from Repub-
llcans. who saw in the proposal a
preliminary step toward socialized
medicine.
The plan, which now goes to con-
ference with the House as part OF
the first supplemental war appro-
priation bill. would allow the med
lcal men $3.50 month for three
months, with the local community
putting up 500 of the total and the
Federal Government the rest.
Answering the Republican fears OF
State-controlled medicine, Senate,
Russell said the American Medical
Association had Endorsed the amend
ment.
