WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 Up -
Reports of "coddling'' Of Axis war
prisoners and unworthy treat
nent of wounded United States
service men are being Investigate
ed by the House Military commit

closed today.
Committee Investigators, May
told reporters, have been sent to
prison camps in Kentucky an d
Pennsylvania to inquire into COM
plants ''that Axis prisoners of war
are being coddled and treated like
heroes"
1--WE have received many COM
plants the Kentuckian aid,
and according to reports some of
these prisoners are being treated
like guests, being transported to
movies and held up as great he
roes. 1t is one thing to threat them
decently, but it is something else
to give them lot of privileges just
because they happened to be cap
tured while trying to kill a lot OF
our boys"
May also said that the commit
tees criticism of conditions at the
nearby Boiling Field station hos
pital was Gust the beginning OF
an investigation of conditions In all
these army hospitals"
Boiling Fields hospital was de.
scribed as "a firetrap" and it s
discontinuance was recommended
after an investigation headed by
Representative Fenton (R.-Pa.)
physician member of Mays com
mittee.
1--WE are not going to stop al
Boiling Field" May said. TT was
investig first because it is
right here in the capital, where
one would expect better things"
There are going to be some
toes stepped on in this hospital
investigation" May added. But

CHANCE TO HELP
FRANCE OFFERED

Continued relief for the people of
France in their struggle for liber-
alton is necessary contribution
toward winning the war, Ranald
Stewart, campaign chairman of
the Community War Chest, declar-
ed yesterday.
The French Relief fund has re-
ported to Stewart through the Unit
ed War Fund of North Carolina.
of which the French relief agency
is a member, that assistance Of
various kinds-foods, clothing and
medical supplies-is urgently need
ed to relieve hunger, suffering and
privations of millions of French
people.
Not only is such a relief essen
tial for the physical well being
and comfort of the victims of Nazi
oppression, but it will serve as a
stimulus for the spirit and morale
of the French people and will sus-
tain and bolster their direct as
sistance to the Allies driving into
France, the local campaign chair
man asserted.
He said help provided by the
French Relief Fund includes foods
in their most concentrated, porta-
BILE and high energy forms, espe-
clally condensed and powdered
milk, dehydrated soup; meat, fish,
cheese; coffee and chocolate and
special invalid foods; clothing for
all ages and climates; layettes;
medical and surgical supplies;
blood plasma; operating and X
ray equipment; funds for found
ing and support of hospitals,
clinics, convalescent homes, nur-
series and canteens; and equip
ment for recreational needs and
personal care.
The French Relief fund also dis
patches vitally-needed articles to
more than 100000 French pris-
oners of war undergoing moral and
physical hardships in German pris-
on camps.
Stewart pointed out that money
contributed by people of Whining
ton and New Hanover county to
the Community War Chest, during
its October campaign, will help
the United War Fund finance the
essential wartime relief services
going to Frenchmen.

seems to me that the least we can
do for our men wounded in action
is to give them decent treatment
when we bring them back to hos
pitfalls here. don't think the Boil
ing Field case is an isolated one.
''The conditions there are I'M
worthy of this nation and of the
men fighting to preserve it. If they
exist elsewhere, we are going to
find out about it and expose it I'M
til they are corrected"
