$1,000 tips on possible income tax
evasion cases, an increase of 5000
since last week, are now in the
hands of Treasury Department in
vestigators. Some $40 900, 900, which
he described as "hoarded or fear
money" has been returned to Fed
eral reserve banks in Chicago, he

The recent Treasury order direct
ing banks to report unusual cur
rency transactions was questioned
yesterday by two members OF Con-
gress, who said it was "inquisitorial'
and likely to drive funds out of
banks into cracked pitchers"
Secretary Morgenthau issued the
order in connection with the drive
against tax dodgers.
Representative Ludlow, Democrat,
of Indiana told a reporter he has
written to Secretary Morgenthau
asking whether the order Is to be
permanent or merely a temporary
measure to round up tax evaders.
Senator Willis, Republican, of
Indiana, member of the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee, expressed
the belief that the Treasury order
would drive money out of the
banks and into hiding in cracked
pitchers and under mattresses"

BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

Col. John H. Baird, director of the
neuropsychiatric division of the
Veterans Administration, testifying
today before the House Veterans
Committee. assailed a recent maga-
zine article on veterans neuro-
psychiatric hospitals as malicious
sabotage Of work well done under
very trying circumstances
The article was written by Albert
Maisel. who testified earlier in the
hearings on veterans hospitals. The
article was titled "Third-Rate Medi-
cine for First-Rate Men" and ap-
peared in the April issue of Co.'S
mopolitan magazine.
Col. Baird said it should have
been called Third Rate Lying and
Slander for Money and Undisclosed
Purposes
He said the article had resulted
in needless and malicious. irrepar-
able injury done to the peace OF
mind of the thousands of veterans
whose suffering the Veterans Ad-
ministration has honestly, faith
fully and efficiently tried to allevi-
ate" He also spoke of the effect
on relatives and on men still in the
armed forces.
Mr. Maisel charged that the vet
Grams are not getting the services
ordered and paid for-that instead
some are being beaten by sadistic
brutes. tens of thousands are re-
ceiving almost no treatment at all
and thousands are being allowed to
deteriorate, degenerate and die
Col Baird said it is ''inconceivable
to me that such conditions could
exist without you and the public
knowing of them"
The psychiatrist pointed out that
representatives of servicemen's Or
CARNATIONS visited these hospitals
regularly, that the American Col
lege of Surgeons surveyed them an
nually and that Red Cross workers
and Grey Ladies were always there
to help the veterans.
Col. Baird told the committee that
all cases where abuse of patients
was charged were investigated
promptly and quick disciplinary
action taken where it was justified
He insisted that veterans in neuro-
psychiatric hospitals received the
most advanced treatments which
had been accepted generally by the
medical profession as likely to be
helpful.
What I am telling you is that
we are not practicing third-rate
medicine" he said. "Of course, we
have crowding at some of the hos
pitals, but not unhuman, deplorable
overcrowding. We have employees
who do not measure up to our high
standards, but is it our fault that
the Japanese bombed Pearl Har-
Dor?
mo Federal agency has lost a
higher percentage of valuable
trained personnel to the armed
forces and to war plants than the
Veterans Administration. Approx
mately 400 physicians, innumerable
nurses, technicians, dieticians and
attendants have left us. They were
replaced, so far as possible, but with
inexperienced personnel, and In
some instances with inefficient, un-
qualified people. 1t has been mat
ter of accepting any personnel that
could be obtained"

'landon Tells Nation
Il Must Learn 10
Work With Russia
By the Associated Press.


MANHATTAN, Kans., June T.
ALI M. Landon. Republican presi-
dental nominee in 1896. called on
Americans today to give their united
support to President Truman "as he
faces his crucial negotiations with
Stain and Churchill
I'VE cannot merely attempt with
fine words to sit on the lid of ex-
plosive forces now working in the
world" the former Kansas Gov
ernor told the Manhattan Rotary
Club. Our leadership depends on
the vigor, soundness and unity with
which we exercise it.
The world is watching not only
what our President does, but how
We support his foreign policies"
United States Fails to Cooperate.
At the same time, Mr.. Landon SAID
America is failing to build bridge
Of cooperation for peace in Our
emotional approach to the problem
of world peace and of Russia"
The illusion current among many
people that all we have to do is to
follow the course chartered from
Moscow to Yalta is dangerous fall
lacy that contributes to the difficult
ties of satisfactory solution" the
former Governor said.
"Basically we have been trying to
work with Russia, not only in war.
but for lasting peace. But Russia
is making it exceedingly difficult,
and there are those in the United
States who are not making. it easier
by their loose talk that eventually
we must fight Russia.
There are still others who are
not helping the situation by insist
ing that all Russians are perfect,
and that all criticisms are fascist
lies.
Must Improve Relations.
Whether the fault is ours-or the
Russians'-or both. our first prob
lem is to establish the right kind
of relations with Russia
Mr.. Landon said there were five
basic facts governing foreign af-
fairs today. He listed these as:
/. A large part of the world hates
the British.
Q. A large part of the world fears
Russia-an imperialistic, militaristic
Russia
3. Russian fears the rest of the
world.
4. Whatever their doubts about
US, a large part of the world wants
American investment and American
business connections for political as
well as economic reasons.
5 Europe. which for many CEN
turies was the center Of the world,
today is the center of complete con-
fusion, because of our military vic
tories and lack of agreed peace poll
cies among the Allies.
Can't Ignore Facts.
These" Mr. Landon said, ARE the
plain facts of situation that con-
fronts lis now and will confront us
for many years to come, and it is the
height of toolishness for us to con-
tinue to ignore it.
"A fundamental of our statesman
ship is that the United States must
be an honest broker for peace among
the nations. Today we stand as one
of three great nations holding the
real power of the world-the United
States, Russia and Great Britain.
If we in the United States make
plain that We are not and will not be
a party by action or inaction to any
scheme or intrigue to gang up on
Russia, Great Britain. China or any
other nation. then we have laid the
cornerstone for lasting peace"
