Hebert, Capper Back
Stadium Project

Representative Hebert, Democrat,
OF Louisiana came out today in ia
vor of providing both a stadium
and a large Government audi
toriun in the National Capital after
charging a movement was under
way to kill both projects.
At the same time Senator Capper,
Republican, of Kansas pledged he
would "do everything" he could to
get an adequate stadium for Wash
ington and bring the Olympic
games here. Senator Capper, Who
is a member of the Senate District
Committee, last night expressed
himself similarly to members of the
Students Committee for District Of
Columbia Olympics during a dance
at the Shoreham Hotel.
II think Washington is just the
place for them (Olympics), Sen
ator Capper said. Asked what type
of stadium he favored, Senator Cap
per said he had no specific type in
mind but that any such structure
must be good one adequate to
meet the needs OF the city Tor years
to come"
Mr.. Hemert, who is a member of
the House District Committee, said
today: .-.5
Il and other members of Congress
have been receiving statements from
people obviously interested in sta
diums and auditoriuns in other
cities.
They say we should have nc
Government or municipal stadium
or auditorium in Washington.
We'll, I don't 60 along with that
suspect the competitive instinct i
back of all this"
Mr.. Hebert charged "these people
with trying to keep the Government
from aiding the District in getting
the stadium and auditorium.
Washington needs both projects.
he said.

senator johnson, Democrat, OF
Colorado today promised renewed
effort to obtain terminal leave for
enlisted men to remedy the "one
striking exception" in the general
rule that the United States deals
more generously with its veterans
than six of its Allies.
The exception is the payment to
veterans on discharge. This was
underscored in a new report pre-
pared by Bernard M. Baruch for
Senator johnson, chairman of the
Senate Finance Subcommittee on
Veterans Legislation.
The Baruch report stated that of
seven countries the United States
gives the lowest. mastering out pay
a fiat sum of $500 for men with
overseas service, 5000 for those with
more than six months domestic
service.
Length of Service Is Factor.
The other countries surveyed, in
cluding Canada. New Zealand,
Great Britain, Australia and the
Union of South Africa, scale dis
charge payments by length of serv-
ice, with payments in Canada and
New Zealand running at double the
mustering-out pay given American
veterans, Mr.. Baruch pointed out.
Senator johnson said he believed
that trminal leave payments to en-
listed men would put this country
ahead of Canada in payments to
veterans on discharge.
Declaring the enlisted men have
very just complaint" because they
do not get terminal leave similar to
that given American officers, Sena-
tor johnson said he was determined
to get his bill out of committee and
would bypass the Budget Bureau,
which has held up approval, If nee
essary.
Study Illustrates Problem.
The Baruch study, taking as an
example private with three years
service. two Of which were spent
overseas, showed this country-by-
country difference in mastering out
payments:
Evening star., 1945-11-27

South Africa pays pensions only
to veterans over 60 or to those un-
der 60 unable to take regular
work" It also gives medical care
to families of disabled veterans.
Australia provides furniture to dis
abled veterans and educates their
children.
Pensions Based on Loss Of Ability.
Pensions in the United States are
based solely on loss of earning Ca
pacity, Mr.. Baruch pointed out,
while Australia, New Zealand and
Great Britain base pensions on
rank and dependents. Canada takes
in dependents, rank and loss of
earning capacity in figuring its pen
sions.
These were other highlights of
the report:
American programs might be
termed more democratic than those
OF other countries in that benefits
are identical regardless of rank"
This country's programs for vet
Grams tend to be "readymade" as
against the efforts of other coun-
tries to tailor their benefits to the
individual veteran. However, this
reflects the enormously greater
number OF veterans in this coun-
try-totaling almost a third again
as many veterans as the total for
the other five countries.
More Explicit Laws.
Job reinstatement laws of other
countries seem more explicit" than
this country's. Most countries as
sure the veteran the same rights
that would have been his had he
stayed on the job and not entered
the service. In South Africa. vet
Grams who had no prewar job are
kept in the service on full military
pay until suitable employment" is
obtained, and Australia and Britain
require employers to hire certain
quotas Of disabled workers.
Britain and South Africa earmark
a number Of civil service vacancies
for veterans and Canada gives over
seas and disabled veterans and the
widows of servicemen a preference
in filing civil service lists. but ''the
most generous and expansive system
of civil service preference is that
of the United States"
This country also offers the high
est scale OF unemployment compen-
sation for veterans and sets the most
liberal standards Of eligibility for
education and vocational training.

BREMERHAVEN, May II -
Up Germany's luxurious CO..
000-ton liner Europa, her decks
warped and her fixtures dirty
and grimy, has been moored in
Kaiserhaven slip here during the
entire war, serving as billcts for
Nazi troops.
Nearby is the sunken, fire
charred hulk of the slightly larg
er Bremen, launched in 1929, a
year earlier than the Europa.
Germans who live here say the
Bremen was set afre and de-
stroyed by a saboteur when she
was fully loaded.
Both the liners won blue rib
bons for Atlantic crossings in
record time and in the lush
1905 the Germans tried 10 cor

minute records in study OF

The Duncans' residence is not,
strictly speaking, glass house.
1t is what architects speak of as
a solar house Such buildings
can be of brick, stone. or wood
shingled, clapboarded, or bark
covered logs. They can be of
conventional design - Cape Cod,
Victorian, Dutch Colonial - or,
like the Duncans, they can be
modern and functional.
A solar house is planned, from
the beginning, to permit a max
imum of sunlight to enter as
many rooms as possible in win
ter time through several times
the traditional amount of glass
window area. This requires care
full reference to compass points
and scientific orientation of win
dows TO sun locations.
Naturally, house with super
windows to admit the suns heat
will be also bright, light house.
And the windows are made of
