ton schedules whipped, Henry J
Kaiser is ready to step down from
the presidency of Brewster Aero
nautical Corp. and concentrate on
his other war work if Brewster
stockholders desire.
He made that clear in a letter to
stockholders in which he said:
Since the present management
assumed Office for the purpose of
meeting the production emergency
and this task has been accom-
plished, it is now appropriate for this
management to retire and be re-
placed by a management selected
by the stockholders,
Mr.. Kaiser feels, a close confidante
explained, that he cannot serve two
maSters-the Navy and the stock
holders. At present he represents
the Navy. which takes the bulk of
the Brewster's plane output.
If he should continue as a Navy
eppointee in Brewster affairs, Mr..
Kaiser would be at a disadvantage
in case the Navy decided to insti-
tute a claim against the company
alleging excessive costs on Navy
contracts. the informant said.

Prior to joining Mr.. Zimmer's
organization, Mr. Farber spent six
years at the Madrillon, and seven
divided between the Casino Royal,
the Villa Roma. the Gingham Club
and boats which used to blaze the

Archbishop CurIey
Hits u. ). Control Over
Medicine, Education
Describes Proposed Bills
As TotoIitorion. in Speech
To Baltimore Nurses
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, May 10.-Proposed
Federal legislation for socialized
medicine and for subsidizing the
educational system is described as
totalitarian by Archbishop Michael
j. Curley of the Baltimore and
Washington Catholic archdiocese.
The suggested placing of medicine
under Federal control was termed
"aS fine a piece of totalitarianism
as you would find any place in the
world" by the archbishop at COM
mencement exercises for nurses
from four Baltimore Catholic hos
pitfalls last night.
At the same time, Archbishop
Curley declared the medical care
plan of the Maryland State Plan
ming Commission contained "splen-
did proposals that can be carried
out"
No one believes more firmly than
I do" he said, that Government
should be interested in the health
of the people. But the United States
is a combination of nations. The
health of the people should be the
interest of the States and not taken
care of by Washington"
He said that the proposed legis-
lation could very easily be made
destructive of every private hospital
because the Surgeon General (of
the United StateS) would he erpou.
cred to lay down conditions under
which they could come into the
system"
Briefly mentioning the proposals
for subsidizing education, he said
such action might place "the chill
dren of our Nation under a Hitler
an Americanized Hitler"

will fight as infantry. Tough as
they come, rugged as any fighting
men in the world, the air. borne
troops will give good account of

Air-borne operations so far have
been small in Europe. Even the
shows by air-borne units in Italy
and Sicily have been small COM

have proven themselves so well and
so completely that there isn't any
doubt the American air-borne
fighter is first-class scrapping
man, capable of licking any oppo-
sition.
