Move 10 Limit Care
OF Veterans 10 War
Ailments Raises Storm
BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.


The possibility that veterans hos
pitfalls may be denied to veterans
without service-connected disabili-
ties or that admission of such pa
tients may be at least sharply re-
stricted has aroused something of
storm on Capitol Hill and among
veterans organizations.
While opinion is divided-some
holding that the Veterans Admin
istration should, at least under
present stringencies of personnel
and equipment, limit its medical
service to those stricken in line of
duty-those who contend that the
Government should look after all
veterans have been more articulate
to date.
Representative Springer, Repub-
lican, of Indiana. placed in the
Congressional Record today an Eek
tension of remarks" in which he
denounced officials Of the Veterans
Administration and "the medical
lobby" for wanting to stop all treat
ment of nonservice-conne cases.
1T is well to bear in mind" he
added, that members of Congress
and Government officials can and
have secured free medical and hos
pital care-free from red tape and
free from obnoxious missionaries
and forms. In this light, I believe
that veterans are entitled to as
much consideration as is presently
given to members of Congress or
Government officials.
Mr.. Springer said he knew of q
veteran with a ce-connected in
jury in his lower jaw, who recently
developed some trouble in his upper
jaw.
when he called at the local vet
eranS' hospital, the physician in
charge adamantly refused to give
him medical treatment simply be-
cause the man could not establish
that his upper jaw was injured while
serving overseas" Mr.. Springer said.
There are hundreds of such cases,
I have been told, but this case is
enough to show how the service
connected racket is being used in
our veterans hospitals today"
William M. Floyd, national COM
mander of the Regular Veterans As
sociation, issued a statement in
which he said: II will concede that
combat wounded and disabled vet
erans returning from the present
war must be taken care of, and it is
possible that many disabled veterans
now hoSpitalized or being treated
for connected disabili-
ties may have to be displaced in vet
Grams hospitals as increasing num-
berS of men are discharged from the
armed forces. But I cannot con-
ceiVe of the Federal Government re-
fusing medical treatment or hospi-
talization for any disabled veteran.
Minds which run in that direction
need long rest.
IF the anticipated congestion de-
velopS to point where Veterans
Administration hospitals are unable
to take care of all the disabled, then
the building program should be
stepped up, Army and Navy hos
pitalS should be required to utilize
every bed for an indefinite period
after the war, and contracts should
be made with private and public
hospitals and institutions to care
for the overflow"
Ihe desperate shortage of person.

Third Meeting Held
By StuIin and Soong

MOSCOW, July 9.-Premier Stain
Saturday night held his third meet
ing within a week with Chinese
Premier T. v. Soong as evidence
accumulated that China and the
Soviet Union were making progress
in solving problems of the highest
interest to Allied statesmen.
A well-informed diplomatic source
said that while by no means all
questions had been settled, every ef-
fort was being made by the two
statesmen to come to an agreement
on virtually every mutual question.
