Senate Committee
Proposes Agency for
Military Research
BY One Associated Press.

| bst tue hsSOCidteQ fIenS.
Establishment of research board
for military security was recon-
mended by the Senate Naval Affairs
Committee today.
Under bill by Senator Byrd
Democrat, of Virginia the research
board would include 40 members
half of them civilians appointed by
the President. The chairman and
vice chairman would be selected from
the civilian membership.
Senator Byrd told the commit
tee that while two other proposed
bills provide for continuation OF
scientific research such as has been
carried on by the Office Of Scien-
tif1c Research and Development
during the war, ''it would be q
colossal mistake to mix military re-
search with other types of study"
Fears Neglect of Military Work.
He predicted that in an all-in-
elusive research plan military sci
ence would be neglected as time
goes on.
The board would not relieve any
governmental agencies Of their
present responsibilities for research
and would not operate its own lab
oratories. 1t would, however, have
authority to transfer funds to other
governmental agencies for work in
cluded in its programs.
A national science foundation to
promote research on war weapons
health and medical problems, and
the best use of scientific discoveries
would be set up under a bill pro-
posed by Senators Kilgore, Demo-
crat, of West Virginia, John, Demo-
crat, of Colorado, and Pepper, Demo-
crat, of Florida.
Kilgore Plan.
The legislation was drafted to
carry out recommendations of a
Senate Military Affairs Subcommit-
tee which studied problems of re-
search and science during the war
Under the Kilgore bill the founda-
ton would be headed by a di-
rector, paid $4,000 a year, who
would consult with national
science board consisting of cabinet
officers. the Federal 'Security Ad-
ministrator and eight public men,
bers appointed by the President.
Senator Magnuson, Democrat, OF
Washington, introduced somewhat
similar legislation last week, based
on recommendation of DR.. Vanne-
var Bush, director of the ONCE of
Scientific Research and Develop
ment. DR.. Bush proposed a nine
member foundation and estimated
the initial cost at $33, 500 900 a year
and about $l22, SOC, 900 annually after
five years.

Sailors Wife Says Two Men Wagner Draws 25-MIIion
Used Guns 10 Question Her SIum-Clearance Measure
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Legislation authorizing new
SIS, 900, ,000-a-year Federal-aid hous-
ing plan to clear out slum areas will
be introduced this week by Chair
man Wagner of the Senate Banking
Committee. He said the program
calls for construction of 200 new
units of housing.
The cost of s25 900 900 a year TO
the Federal Government Is in the
nature of a subsidy which Senator
Wagner said is justified especially
in the immediate postwar period.
There are many slum areas still
to be cleared, Senator Wagner said
yesterday, and besides this advan-
tage the program "can serve to
take up slack in employment"

the wife of a chief petty officer when
she refused to give information re-
garding her husbands Navy duties,
today was under investigation, 7th
Naval District authorities said.
Mrs. Reba jolly, 26, former WAC
told Police Capt E. w. Melchen the
pair forced her at gun point to enter
their car last Thursday afternoon.
Capt. Melchen quoted Mrs. Jolly
as saying they drove to a remote
section and quizzed her about when
her husband, Francis jolly, stationed
at the Miami Naval Air Station, was
scheduled for transfer.
When she refused to divulge any
information regarding her husband s
duties, Mrs. jolly told police, one of
the men slashed her arm with a
razor. Then, she said, they forced
her from the car and drove off.
Police turned the case over to
Navy authorities.

grayed colors and simplified forms,
which, in many instances, merge
with the background. His work in
oil is noticeably superior to that in
other media. This may be due to the
fact that he put more serious effort
