|CampPe etonListed
As Surplus by Army
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
Camp Pendleton, near Virginia
Beach, Va, has been added by the
War Department to its list of Sur
plus" properties.
Used before the war as the Vir-
ginia National Guard encampment
and rifle range, the site was taken
over by the Army for training pur-
poses early in the emergency, about
the time the National Guard was
absorbed into the Army.
In notifying Representative Har-
ris, Democrat. of Virginia of its de-
cision to declare the site surplus,
the department gave no indication
of its possible disposition. Procedure
In all such cases has been to notify
all other Federal agencies with a
possible interest in taking the prop
erty over before any action toward
public disposition is taken.
Pendleton is the second Virginia
Army establishment to be so re-
leased. The department announced
July "a its declaration of Fort Eustis
as surplus, and while no announce
ment has been made, the Navy was
understood to be studying a plan to
take over part of it.

Commission 10 Map
Air Defense Proposed

A joint resolution calling for Gre
alton OF a commission to frame a
policy for postwar DEVELOPMENT of
the aviation industry in the interests
OF national defense was introduced
today by Senator Murray Of Mon
tana and Representative Randolph
OF West Virginia.
The proposal grew out of hearings
before the War Contracts Subcom-
mittee OF the Senate Military Affairs
Committee last month, at which rep
resentatlves of the industry. the
Army and Navy and labor urged
the necessity for continued technical
and manufacturing development
after the war.
Chairman Murray of the subcom-
mlttee will seek the establishment of
an air policy commission" Federal
agency similar to the Morrow Board
appointed by the late President
Coolidge in 1926.
Ihls board charted a far-sighteo
policy for the development of mill.
tary aviation which did much te
revive interest in the technical prog.
ress of the industry.
The resolution would provide TO,
appointment by the President O,
commission members from Congress

and labor.
The purpose of the legislation is tt
prevent a recurrence of condition.
which followed the World War, wher
the public and Congress lost inter.
est IN further development of air.
craft types, and our armed force,
had no choice but to build thei,
programs around obsolete equipment
lett over from the war.
The commission would be charged
with the duty of making a full sur.
Vey OF postwar aviation problems
and to submit recommendation
within six months in a report tr
the President and Congress.

Congress Will Grant
Hospital Center Fund ,
Capper Believes
Insists D. c. Government,
However, Should Help
Defroy Building Costs

Belief that Congress will be dis
posed to do the right thing" and
make a grant toward erection of a
modern hospital center in Wash
ington, because OF its interest in the
army of Government workers here,
was voiced late yesterday by Sem
ator Capper, Republican, of Kan
SaS.
He declared himself in favor of
the Tydings plan for such a de-
velopment. except that he thought
the District government should
make a substantial contribution to
the building fund.
Nonprofit Plan.
Under the plan as proposed by
Senator Tydings, Democrat, of
Maryland, the Federal Government
would make an outright grant to
permit participating voluntary hos
pitals in Washington to erect an
adequate and modern hospital CEN
ter. The plant thereafter would be
operated on a non-profit, self-sus-
tanning basis under the direction of
trustees, including a minority rep
resentation by the Federal and Dis
trict governments.
Senator Tydings has declared a
Government grant was justified on
the grounds that Federal workers
were entitled to proper health pro-
lection. He has argued against any
lease or loan proposition which
might suggest or lead to ANYTHING
like "socialized medicine"
Capper's Position.
Senator Capper said:
Il am convinced that when q
showing is made Of the great need
OF better hospital facilities in the
District. Congress will be disposed to
do the right thing and extend Fed
eral aid. Il do feel, however, that
We should not expect Congress to
carry the whole load. I believe the
District should, and will, do its part
but the details of the financial plan
are matters for decision bv the
District subcommittee, headed by
Senator Tydings."
