were torpedo planes. single-engined
Mitsubishi 97s and twin-engined
MitSuoishi ones.

ton today was probing the causes
of disturbances at the Tulc Lake

brought about army control of the
10000 disloyal internees concen-

The FBI men were requested by
Atty. Gen. Francis Bidtlle to deter
mine whether or not any violations
of federal law requiring "prosecu-
tive action" resulted from the Jap

led to REIMBURSEMENT of authority

Urge Home Insulation To Help
Relieve 1914 Fuel Shortage
BY BETTY MACDONALD
NEA sta: CorreSpOnuent

washington, May 29.-Govern-
ment conversion experts think they
know the answer to next winters
fuel problem, and they base their
program on sound logic. During the
summer they'll conduct campaign
for complete insulation Of the home
Their figures prove that good
insulation job can make a differ
ence of more than 5 degrees in
heat, and save something like 30
per cent in fuel
The conversion experts have the
full support Of FILA people, who
announce that restrictions will be
relaxed on insulation loans up to
$500.
Many insulation jobs can be
tackled by housewives whose men
are no longer at home. Women
can handle calking gun, If they
can work a riveting gun. Most i'm
portant is check of the house this
summer for heat leaks at wood and
brick Jennings, basement windows,
under caves where masonry may
have come loose. Closing and tap
ing off spare rooms is also an eX-
cellent precaution.

Only Woman M. D. With A.E.F.
Guards Health OF WAACS

to the office of Chief Surgeon
Colonel Elliot c. Cutler, DR.. Loi-
seauX has been able to acquire a
very good idea of conditions in
England. as she has been here since
June, 1941. She was one of II
women doctors who volunteered to
come over on a Lend-LeaSe arrange
ment to relieve overtaXed medical
personnel here. Having worked in
both London and the provinces, she
believes her experiences will be of
tremendous help in her work with
the WAACs.
Since her appointment last De-
cember, Dr. LOiseauX has been visit
ing establishments connected with
Englands three womens services,
the WAAFs. the WRENS, and the
ATS, inspecting working living and
recreational conditions in all kinds
of posts with special eye on medi-
cal facilities and problems.
WAACs will find, she says, that
in British hospitals, patients don't
get as much, but, on the other hand
they don't expect as much' as the
average American does.
SO far as our WAACs are con-
cerned, she feels that provision for
adequate quarters will have to be
made, not implying anything lux
urious, as the girls themselves would
not expect it. But, as they will
have to make England their home
for perhaps many months, they'll
need billets that will supply a GER
tain modicum of the American
woman's idea of comfort if they
are to be kept healthy and happy.
Outside of getting them accli-
mated to British weather vagaries,
DR.. LoiseauX has no qualmS about
maintaining a good standard of
health among the WAACs, espe-
cially if they are fed as well as are
the boys of the AEF.
Dr. LoiseauX is a graduate OF
Cornell's School of Medicine and
a former assistant physician at
Wellesley. She was also on Colonel
Cutters staff when he was surgeon
in-chief at the Peter Bent Brigham
hospital in Boston.
