FATHER ACCUSED
OF HITTING BABY

Carl Ward, II, of Maffitt Village
was lodged in New Hanover al
yesterday by Village police on
charges of striking his four-month-
old son in the face with his omen
hand and inflicting painful in
juries. Bond for the young man wa
set at $500.
w. H. Stanley, chief of Village
police, said the baby, carried to
the police station by his mother at
an early hour Saturday, had blood
coming out the side of his nose and
between its eyes. The imprint of
four fingers was across it's fore
head and face. The Wilmington
police took pictures of the iniur-

The 18-year-old mother, who
who swore out the assault warrant
against her husband, told police
the infant was crying about $3.50
am. Saturday when her husband
swooped it up in one hand and
'beat it with the other" Chief

the woman as saying the father
had 'beat" his son several pre-
vious times, and also her.
The infant, Earl Lee Ward. was
carried by police to James Walker
Memorial hospital for treatment.

Health Outlook
For Freed Internees
Declared To Be Fine

SANTO TOMAS, Manila, Feb TO-
-(P)-Brig. Gen. Guy DENT OF
Salem, Va, theater surgeon OF the
Southwest Pacific area, said here
today that the health outlook fot
more than 1900 liberated civilian
internees is fine and that plans
were rapidly taking form to handle
the sick and wounded.
The general said that Beri-Beri,
the curse of the camp during more
than three years of imprisonment,
can be cured with proper diet Of
essential foods. Eggs, orange julce
and vegetables will build these
people back to normal in short
time and the i'll effects of the di'
sease will completely vanish"
Although plans have been mads
to transport majority of the
liberated Americans, Britons anc
other United Nations nationals tc
rear areas by plane, Gen. Deni'
said in many cases high attitudes
would be dangerous. He was check
ing to determine how many coulo
be flown out with no ill effects.

Administration Fighting
7lUo Battles In CONGRESS-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-R-A
week of opposition buffeting left
the administration fighting uphill
tonight on two congressional fronts
for Henry Wallace's office hold
ing life and for compulsory work
law
The score:
l. The compulsory work bill, al
ready passed by the house, ap-
peared snagged in the Senate Mil
ltary Affairs committee, with its
future in doubt.
2. The senate-passed George bill
designed as Wallace's ticket to
stripped down commerce secre-
taryship - was getting the same
treatment in the House Rules COM
mittee which controls the road to
house floor consideration.
Another White House entry, a bill
to draft nurses, was being groomed
in the House Military committee.
The compulsory work bill, which
had a comparatively easy time
getting through the house, started
strong in the senate last weekend
when the Military committee gave
it a go-ahead signal with only one
major change-giving the director
of war mobilization instead of Sc
lective service control over draft
ed workers.
Monday, however, the committee
backed up, ordered open hearings.
The bills strength waned visibly
as the hearings progressed.
In the house the Banking COM
mittee unanimously approved the
bill by Senator George D.-Ga.J to
take the Reconstruction Finance
corporation out of the Commerce
department before the senate de-
cides March l whether to give that
job to the former vice president.
The measure hit trouble in the
The Wilmington morning star. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1909-1990, 1945-02-11

Rules committee, however, where
Wallace opponents got the upper
hand In early consideration. They
accused the senate of making
horse trade with the president
the George bill for Wallace's
confirmation-and appeared deter
mined to block the George bill
away from the house floor
That would force the senate to
vote on Wallaces confirmation for
the commerce job with the RFC
still attached to it. Even his sup
porters doubt if he could win in
that circumstance.
Wallace supporters at weeks
end were casting about for
means of by-passing the Rules
committee, if they have to, to get
the George bill to the floor.
AS the House Military commit
tee began fashioning bill to draft
nurses, War Manpower commits
sion official cautioned that failure
W pass SuCll d measure may
wreck the voluntary nurses pro-
gram. The witness, DR.. Paul Bar
ton, VINO procurement director,
said almost $4,000 nurses have
filed volunteer applications since
President Roosevelt first men
toned drafting them.
The senate was building a fire
under another Roosevelt appoin,ee
Aubrey Williams, former NYA
head, nominated for Rural Elec-
trific alton Administrator.
Part of his opposition came from
influential Senator Mcclellan d.
Tenn, head of the Appropriations
committee and the senate's presi-
dent pro tenn. He says Williams is
untitled by political philosophy and
financial experience to head the
$500, 900, 900 lending agency.
