Army Will Continue
Ito Cut Point Scores
Until Next March
By MIRIAM GUTENBERG.

The War Department plans to re-
duce its discharge score next month
and to continue reductions monthly
until next March in order to keep
up the supply of men flowing through
its separation centers, a War De-
partment spokesman said today.
The War Department official said
at present, with a 60-point critical
score, 100000 men are immed-
lately eligible for discharge. He re-
ported that generally, in the Euro
pean theater, men with more than
10 points have come home. Men
with 80 points still are being sent
home from the Pacific.
A Navy spokesman reported the
Navy expects to discharge 10000
men by the end of the year. Of that
number, All 900 had been discharged
through November l. The Navy dis
charged 314,000 men in October and
expects to discharge $4,000 in No
vember and $4,000 men in De-
cember.
Rankin Answered.
Both Army and Navy spokesmen
say separation facilities are no
longer limiting factor on dis
charges. That was their unofficial
answer to statement by Repre-
sentative Rankin, Democrat, of
Mississippi that he will object to a
recess OF Congress until legislation
is passed to speed up discharges.
The chairman of the House Vet
erans' Committee charged the pres
ent point system for discharges is
a failure" and said he wanted
legislation passed to discharge any
man who has been in the armed
forces 18 months or more. who has
dependents or who wants to go
back to school.
The War Department spokesman
said that $4,000 men month ap-
peared to be the present maximum
that could be brought home, be-
cause OF limits on shipping.
More Changes in September.
The Navy official said that by
September /, 1916, men who were
drafted into the Navy and don't
want to remain will be eligible for
discharge. Included among that
group, he said, are those taken in
under the Navy's token" draft since
VI day. The Navy, he reported, is
now drafting about 1000 men a
month while its enlistments are run
ming $4,000 a month.
The only factor that might limit
the release of 1,2s0,0O0 by the end
of this year, the Navy spokesman
added, was transportation.
The Navy has already announced
its schedule for reducing points. En-
listed men with Al points became
eligible for discharge November l.
A further drop to 80 is planned for
December l and to 38 for January l.

Built-In Light Source
Features Army Camera
BY the Associated Press

AS tiS AsSoSldlco rEcSS.
The Army has a camera with
which it says the rankest amateur
can make f1awless still pictures, in
color or black and white, of fast
action at distances between 6 inches
and IL feet.
The secret Of the camera is q
built-in light source, a quartz vapol
tube giving flash of about 1i25,-
000th of a second duration with bril-
liancy greater than sunlight.
The camera was developed by the
Army's pictorial service, for Army
surgeons, from an original idea by
Capt. Rollin w. King and a civilian
expert, Emanuel Berlant. The light
tube was designed and built by the
General Electric Co. Four cameras
have been made, with others now
under construction.

Todoy's War Story
BY THOMAS r. HENRY,


WITH UNITED STATES Sd
ARMY IN EUROPE.-At an ad-
vanced stage of starvation a point
is reached where the brain is swept
clean of all memories and all &C
quired knowledge.
When men and women are rescued
at this stage they are back in early
infancy. They can only eat and
cry and sleep. They have all the
characteristics, especially the more
disagreeable ones, of babies. They
do not know their names. Great
mathematicians cans do the
simplest arithmetic problems.
Within week they become
querulous, self-seeking small chill
dren. They are beginning to be
conscious of their surroundings.
They are quarrelsome and hard to
manage.
The next stage is that of very
boisterous, destructive, clumsy pre-
adolescents. 1t is reached in three
or four weeks and is very difficult
time for doctors and nurses. In
dividuals begin to display their own
personalities and talents again. The
mathematician begins to figure, the
artist to draw, the sculptor to mould
figures of clay. Memories have re-
turned.
Love Affairs Begin.
Then comes the stage of mid
adolescence. Men and women get
interested in each other. There are
violent "calf. love" affairs, meetings
in the moonlight, stolen kisses, mash
notes. They begin planning for the
future. Memories have returned.
Then comes the stage of engage
ments and weddings. This is al
happy sign for those in charge of
bringing the starved back to life.
They know these now can take care
of themselves. They no longer need
be looked after like children. They
are responsible adults and can be
trusted.
But it is a trying time for the
rabbis at the great rehabilitation
center at Feldafing where 5000 Jews
from Buchenwald, Dachau and other
concentration camps slowly are
being brought back to life. These
rabbis have just passed through |
the same stages from early infancy
to adulthood themselves. But they
have thoroughly recovered their
memories and sense Of responsibility
and they know there are husbands
and wives of these new lovers who
may still be alive in Poland or
Russia, or among the rescued from
some other concentration camps and
they shun the responsibility of per-
forming bigamous marriages.
When Miss Muriel Cunningham,
New Zealand nurse who runs the
camp hospital, and Miss Edel Otto,
Danish secretary who is assistant
director, see 40-year-old men and
women making dates and walking
together they know that their
children" whom they have nursed
tenderly for 10 weeks and whose
childish pranks have been such a.
nuisance, have grown up at last.
Progress Takes Two Months.
This progress in little more than
two months from babyhood to man
hood and womanhood is the history
OF a great many of her cases, says
Nurse Cunningham. Both she and
Miss Otto are employees of UNRRA.
The camp is run by 1t. Irving
Smith, South Bend, Ind.
Its nucleus was 1900 jews taken
off stalled train on the last day of
the war. They were on their way
to the determination depot at
Auschwitz, Poland, to be put
through the gas chamber and Gre
mated
Evening star., 1945-09-04

Jews in the same stage have been
sent here and those who have
reached the adulthood stage have
been dismissed.
All of them have passed through
Auschwitz once, when they were
fortunate enough to form part of
the per cent OF Jews arriving
each day who we're spared from
the execution chambers because
they looked best fitted for hard
labor. AS their memories return in
the preadolescent stage they tell
their "reminiscences of Auschwitz-
especially of "Dr. Fischer of Ber-
lin" They shudder when they
speak his name. DR.. Fischer was
a throat specialist, interested espe-
cially in the vocal organs. He was
performing some sort of scientific

ers found little reason for ju-
bilization.
One bright spot in the picture
was Al Benton's pitching per-
torrance in the first game of
Mondays twin bill, as he chalk
ed up his 18th win against two
defeats and continued his amaz-
ing pitching duel for five in
nings until the Tigers broke out
with a four run splurge in the
sixth to put the game on ice.
The Tigers four tallies were
put together from singles by
York, Swift and Webb, a dou-
BILE by Outlaw, a walk to Maier
and squeeze play in which
Benton reached first when
Catcher Mike fresh booted thu
ball.
The White Sox wasted little
time getting to Eaton in the Sec
ond game, as they climbed
aboard him for three runs in the
first inning. The windy city
runs were scored on three
walks. two infield hits and
wild pitch.
Orrell and Hautemann took
over Eaton's pitching chores,
but the Tigers could do nothing
with Johnny HUMPHREYS.
