operators of these dispensarieS be
warned that all violations cease i'm

respectfully call the attention of the
United States Attorney and all en-
forcement officers to these condi-
lions.
We realize that the condition
which is the basis for the criticism
herein made has been aggravated
by or a product of the war, which
resulted in the increase of the
transient population, thereby put
ting a correspondent burden upon
the law enforcement officers.
Upon testimonies of witnesses we
find that in some boarding homes
for children there are inmates suf-
fering from disease and malnutri-
ton. Therefore, we recommend:
/. Placing agencies for children
entering these homes should require
physical examinations for children
on admittance and periodically
thereafter
2. That physical examinations of
operators of homes be made period
ically.
g. That adequate standards of
living be maintained in these homes
and enforced and inspected by plac-

homes for children which maintain
required standards as set by law and
an appropriation made to enforce

STRENGTHENS POSITION

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Moscow' s
of plans giving five
of the Is Soviet Republics a degree
of autonomy is regarded here as
being part at least of the Russian
solution to Territorial problems of
international significance.
Five of the is countries, it is
noted, cover a territory which was
made a part of Russia within the
last few years and as result of
military and joint political and mill
tary action of various kinds.
The proposed reorganization puts
the Russians in a position to say to
the world that all these territories
are being given autonomy equivalent
to members of the British Common
wealth and that there can therefore
be no question raised of Russia S
domination over them.

4-F Drafts Effect on Baseball
To Give Line on Other SPORTS

Such draft could wreck pro foot
ball squads as thoroughly as team
OF Bronko Nagurskis. In fact. it
might have a more disastrous effect
on pro football than ON pro baseball,
as by the time the grid season rolls
around the draft might be humming
along rapidly, while it is conceivable
the baseball clubs might get in most
OF their seasons before they actually
began to feel the pinch.
Basket ball also would be a victim.
and there wouldn't be such areu-
ments over the tall guys such as
ragged this year, as most of these
giants are 18 or over and are 4-F
because of their altitude.
Boxing might not be hit quite so
hard, as the 4-F fighters could labor
in essential industry and still turn
up OF an evening now and then and
engage in fisticuffs. In fact, any
sport which largely is individual
competition would not feel the pinch
as much as team sports which re-
qulre much practice as a unit.
A Problem to Place Them.
What most of these athletes could
do in defense work is problematical
as most of them are unskilled in
activities other thar their calling
ana because rangy guy is adept at
spearing low throw at first base
doesn't mean he would be valuable

Anyway, what happens to baseball

Associated Press Sports Writer.


NEW YORK, April 12.-Most of
the comment SO far concerning the
possible effects of the impending
labor draft of 4-Fs has been con-
fined to Baseball, and that's natural
enough as the diamond season is
right around the corner, We hope,
and some of the other sports cam
paigns seem long way off.
Nobody has paid much attention
10 what such a draft might do to
football, both college and pro. Or
to basket ball, or boxing-to all
sports, for that matter.
Some of our best college football
teams last fall, not counting those
spiked with Navy and Marine
trainees, had a pretty fair sprink-
ling of 4-Fs, and cne of them-the
fine Tulsa eleven-largely was made
up Of guys spliced together with
baling wire and adhesive tape who
couldn't get into armed service on
a pass.
Could Wreck Pro Football.
College teams, other than Navy
and Marine trainee schools, next
fall necessarily would be made up of
l7-year-olds, with light sprinkling
Of students taking medical courses
or some other subjects making it
advisable for them to complete their
education.
That would leave the field to the
Navy and trainee schools, or, if
other schools wanted to continue
with the l7-year-olds, it would split
the competition into two distinct
divisions as it wouldn't be reason
able or fair for the younger kids
to play the semiservice teams.

Probably the most widely

said, is benzol, distilled from

Also widely used, from Swe-
den to Spain and from India to

State Welfare
Load Static
Decline Appeors
TO Hove Halted

LANSING, Oct. 26- (P) -
The State Welfare Department
frightened its watch over eco
nomic changes as il reported to-
day public assistance rolls in
Michigan appear to have leveled
off after months of steady de-
cline.
F. F. Fauri, acting State Wei
fare Director, said "all loads ap-
pear to have become stabilized.
It is the first leveling off and
hating of a downward trend
we have seen in many months.
The change is at least partly sea-
sonal and is not enough TO war
rant any predictions in view Of
the uncertainty of economic con-
ditions."
State officials have been fear
ing the impact of reconversion
on welfare rolls.
Fauri said the direct relief
roll in September covered TO-
997 cases, an increase of only
40 cases but the first upward
change in more than six months.
The rolls still were 1T per
cent below September of 1943
and included only 1851 cases
of full relief.
Fauri said old age assistance
rolls reached IS, 1872 cases in Oc-
tober, an increase of IS cases
but the first in many months.
Aid to dependent children cas-
es decreased only one case in
the month and aid to the blind
five cases.

BartfieId Wins Hondicop Match

New York. Dec. 30-(UP)-The years last figh tat Madison Square Garden developed into a handicap match in which lightweight Danny Bartfield of Manhattan, betting with only one fist, won the unanimous 10-round decision over welterweight Morris Ref of Brooklyn, steering with only one eye.
 Many of the 11,537 fans objected to the decision last night, indicat- ing vociferously that they fought Slugger Ref deserved at least a draw, despite his swollen-shut left peeper which suffered blackout in the second round
 However, the three ring officials including referee It. Benny Leonard - were captivated by Bartfield's fancy jabbing and hooking with the left duke, after he had suffered a recurrence of an old injury to his right hand in the second round, rendering that mitt virtually useless for the remaining stanzas.
 Bartfield-nephew of the oldtime middleweight, soldier Bartfield-up- held the 3-1 betting odds favoring him, as he tagged heavier Ref with his second defeat of 1944. Previous ly Ref had won Is of 19 bouts this year, 16 by knockouts. Ref scaled 1z3-1-4 pounds, five and a quarter more than Bartfield.
 The gate was $35,505.
