suddenly that whatever influence
Lucia had held over Francis was
gone. This man was katherine's

to restore the glory of Lowell.

DR.. Sims walked slowly down
the steps. When he reached the
sidewalk he was surprised to see
a score of men standing about the
front of the Martin home, their
faces expressionless in the light
from the street lamp.
.'How's Tommy, Doc?" a voice
asked.
Dr.. Sims knew a moment of
uneasiness. He didn't like the
ominous quietness of this group.
He had seen enough of mobs and
strikes to prefer grief and indig-
nation at a time like this; any eX-

silent judgment on the faces of
these men.

VII OUR BOYS COME HOME?

The plan announced by the War De-
nartment for the release of fighting men
has been generally approved as far ana
inst. regardless of how it works out Tor
particular individuals.
Naturally, hundreds of thousands OF
perxons in the United States are concerned
over sae probability that some soldiers may
be transferred to the Far East without
furlough in this country. This is unfortu-
nate. but. in general, it applies to service
troops which will be sent to the Pacific
without the special eight weeks training
course designed TO fit fighters for the Jap
anese theater of action.
The bulk of other troops, it is said, will
go To- the Far East by way of the United
StaieS Generally speaking units moving
20 the Pacific will have to be notified about
four months before departure in order to
take their eight weeks of special training,
with a month mt an assembly area to check
their records under the discharge plan and
overhaul their equipment, topped off by
STAY a. a staging area.
These details have been announced by
brig. Gen. George s. Eyster, who likens the
transfer of the troops from Europe to the
Pacific 20 the job of moving the whole pop
ulation Of Chicago to the Philippines. Com
bat troops will be started for the United
States and home furloughs on their way to
the Pacific within three or four weeks.

'Hand-fo-Mouth' Plan

Last Year Is Outlined

A "hand-to-mouth" policy in OBJ
tanning meat for District public
hospitals and institutions during
the past year Is outlined in the an
nual report of District Purchasing
Oficer Roland F. Brennan. made
public yesterday at the District
Building.
Costs of other basic foods have
increased 14l per cent in ,>the past
four years, Mr.. Brennan told the
Commissioners, although the insti-
tutions have fewer consumers OF
foods.
The meatless days were put into
effect and meat substitutes, along
with more fish, were used to meet
the emergency.
Other highlights of his report
were:
Total purchases for District agen-
cies amounting to $5,368,079.

Liberal Legislation
For Disabled Veterans
lis Urged by Senator
Hy the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Oct. 90 Senate,
johnson, Democrat, of Colorado to-
night declared the Nation owed It'll
"first obligation" to provide for dis.
abled and handicapped veterans
and urged enactment of additiona
corrective and liberalizing legisla-
ton for disabled veterans.
Our laws and the administration
OF laws pertaining to disabled vet
erans," he said, have become sc
complicated that the disabled and
handicapped are constantly discov-
ering defeats and deficiencies ir
them the hard way. This necessi-
tates enactment of additional cor
rective and liberalizing legislation. y
Cites Bills introduced.
Speaking before the Oath National
Convention of the Disabled Ameri-
can Veterans, Senator johnson cited
two bills he had introduced at the
request OF the DAV. One provides
dependency allowances for totally
disabled veterans, the other would
permit payment of more than $40
monthly to single veterans hospital
ized for service-i incurred disabilities.
Gen. Omar Bradley, veterans
administrator, declared earlier the
shortage of personnel in veterans
hospitals was critical" He added /:
"Civilian institutions, many of
which are overloaded, cansprovide
beds in some cases, but this is an
expediency. Semipermanent Army
hospitals, offered to us as stop
gaps for today's emergency. cannot
be taken over without the per-
sonnel to run them"
Maverick Hits Loan Delays.
Maury Maverick, chairman of the
Smaller War Plants Corp, asserted
only $1,500,000 had been loaned
thus far to veterans by the Gov
ernment under the CT Bill of
Rights.
"By the time a veteran goes
through attempts to secure a bust
ness loan from the Government
cutting through endless red tape
and banking procedure, he really
becomes a disabled veteran" the
former Texas Senator declared.
Mr.. Maverick expressed hope
there would be a wide distribution
of surplus property to veterans of
World War II.
