House Military Group
Opens DemobiIization
Hearings Tomorrow
BY the Associated Press.

ASs eAc ASSVCAAtSo TEcSS. 4
The House Military Affairs Com.
mittee plans to open hearings to.
morrow on the Army's demobilixa.
lion plan, and congressional OBJ.
servers believed the committes
will use the occasion to seek In
formation on Gen. George c
Marshall's proposal Of a small post
war professional force combined
with a well-trained citizen-reserve.
Brig. Gen. william r. Tompkins
head Of the special planning divi-
sion Of the general staf1. will be
called as the first witness.
Gen. Marshall, the Army chief
Of staff, set forth his ideas in q
directive issued as a basic policy for
ofncers planning the permanent
postwar Army organization.
Anticipated Action.
Gen. Marshall made plain that
his directive was predicated on the
assumption that Congress will ap-
prove some form of postwar uni
versal military training. The SUBJ
ject Of peacetime draft probably
will be taken up in Congress after
the election by the special com.
mittee on postwar military policy.
The assumption in most admin
istration quarters is that any uni
versal military training program
would provide manpower for naval
as well as Army reserves. Such q
system might 60 far to solve one Of
the Navy's present worries-how to
keep at least sizeable part of its
now vast armada of fighting ships
In commission in the years of inter-
national policing following the de-
feat Of the Axis.
Departs From Tradition.
But the peacetime existence of
such a body of citizen-reserve naval
men, including officer personnel,
would represent something of a de-
parture in United States naval ira
dition. 1t has been a general policy
that in the years between wars the
command Of fighting ships should
rest only with the professional naval
offcer, the Annapolis graduate.
Those interested in the proposal
Tor postwar consolidation of the
Army and Navy and are giving close
attention to the Marshall plan and
the various proposals for peacetime
universal military training.
In general, however, 1t is con-
eeded that the detailed development
OF the programs must, in great
measure, await the shaping of in
ternational postwar commitments
which will determine whether and
to what extent a world police or
ganization is necessary.

Road Construction
Plan Put at Top Of
Congressional Slate
BY the Associated Press.

| By the Associated Press.
A $3,375, ESQ, 900 road construc-
tion program went to the top
of Congress work sheet today.
A log jam over other postwar
proposals began breaking, mean
while, in a spirit Of compromise, a
congressional recess starting about
September Is and extending until
after the November election ap-
peared probable.
Still to be determined is whether
the prediction vacation will be
an outright adjournment or . pro-
longed recess punctuated by semi
weekly sessions with no legislative
business.
House leaders are holding out fol
formal adjournment to give men,
bers time for a few last-minute licks
on the stump. All House seats are
at stake in November. The Senate,
with only one-third Of its members
up for election, leans toward the
three-day recess plan.
Sponsors of the bill to authorize
Federal contributions totaling $2,-
OTIS, ESQ, 600 to be spent during the
first three postwar years on con-
struction and repair Of highways
throughout the Nation were prom
ised Senate action Immediately after
Congress disposes of these other
matters in the days remaining be-
fore the proposed recess:
l. A measure setting up an Once
of War Mobilization and Recon-
version to guide the reconversion
of industry to a peacetime basis
and dealing with the controversial
problem of unemployment compen-
sation.
2. A bill fixing the procedure for
the disposal of upwards of $780,
600, 900, 900 of surplus goods at the
lend Of the~war.
Under the road measure, the Gov
ernment would contribute $3.50, ,0O0.- :
900 a year for three years for Fed
ersl-aid highways, urban highways
and farm -to-nnarkets roads under q
|procsdlre calling for q 90 per cent
Federal contribution and . 20 per
cent payment by the States.
Senator Hayden, Democrat, Of
Arizona said he Is eager to see the
legislation through both houses as
quickly as possible since the legisla-
lures of IS States meet in January
and will have to authorize State
contributions.
In addition to the $3.50, 900 900 q
year to be supplemented by State
funds. the Government would spend
$25 200, 900 on forest highways, $l2,-
100000 for forest development roads
and $4,250. 900 for road construction
in national parkways.
The two other postwar bills
cleared the two Houses in such
widely different form that commit
tees of Senators and Representa-
tives have been assigned the task
of reconciling them for nnal con-
gressional approval.
The committee working over the
surplus property disposal bill agreed
over the week end on language that
gives final control to the proposed
director of war mobilization and
reconversion provided for In the
second bill.
While it sets up four-member
surplus property board to set policies
and leaves to a presidentially ap-
pointed administrator authority over
physical disposals, it specifically
gives to the mobilization ofiicial au-
thority to set aside any action.
That is the type of one-man con-
troll the House has fought for

the Army ana the drug VIII De o1S- tributed to every merchant ship for immediate treatment of all crew members suffering battle fatigue or convoy" fatigue.
 According to Dr. Blain, this amazing drug immediately cures all nervousness, trembling, and hysteria caused by shell-fire or fear of battle with absolutely no toxic effect. He said there had been cases of men who were screaming and shaking in terror following a battle, and after talk ing the drug they were niracu- lously brought back to normal.
 Dr. Blain said that although his experiments had been only with seamen he saw no reason why 1t wouldn't render the same mercy for soldiers, and implied that it's use for treatment of any physical manifestation of psycho-neurosiS for anybody was lirnitless.
 RESULTS UNBELIEvAEBLE
 Discoverer of this use for the drug is Dr. Robert G. Heath, for mer resident at the Neurological Institute, New York, and chief med ical officer, Merchant Marine Rest Care Center, Sands Point, Long Is- land.
 In trying to rehabilitate men who were incapacited by battle fatigue Dr. Heath made exhaus- tive tests with every known seda- tive, as well as the induced -sleep treatments, to no avail. Faced with the desperate need for get ting these men back to the sea. he remembered certain tests he had made with a derivative of obstetric cases, called ergotamine ergot, a drug used primarily for tartrate.
 Results of his first tests with the drug on men were unbenev- ably successful, although it pro- duced no reaction on strictly men, tai cases. It eliminated all shak- ing, nervousness, upset stomach. and brouht heart action to nor- nal for victims of battle fatigue. PERMANENT CURE
 Ccdk1u1 4CoV tllC CuAC W 4O4~ lowed by a more serious reaction or that the results were merely temporary, he made extensive tests in the eight rest centers maintained by VISA and the Maritime Commis- sion in cooperation with the U. s. Public Health Service.
 Months of study revealed that only persons with hardening of the arteries and chronic liver troubles could not be safely given the drug, but that it's cures were permanent and no evil effects fol- lowed.
 It is taken by mouth or injected in the blood-stream for faster &C., tion. There is an adequate supply for Maritime Commission needs and probably for any demand by the Army. if their tests are equal ly as successful.
 Experiments with ergotatmine tartrate are too new to reveal all ramifications for it's use, but it is. considered possible that it might rank among the sulfa drugs and penicillin as contributing to the advancement of medicine.

Action UncOntested in Court; Decision Reserved
 in One Suit

Henry Vallerand of Waterbury was granted a divorce from Cecile Brouillette Valerand, formerly of Waterbury and now of parts un- known to the petitioner, following a hearing before Judge Edward J. Quinlan in superior court this morning. The action was uncon- tested.
