ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. IA show
down fight of national significance
Ito determine the degree Of civil
service preference to be accorded
veterans of this warts nearing a
climax in New York.
New York long has been 4 leader
In broadening application Of civil
service and the outcome Of the pres
ent controversy In the Nations most
populous and wealthiest State we'll
may set the pace elsewhere.
Legislators generally favor veter-
ans preference Since 1879 disabled
veterans have had permanent pref
erence in both appointments and
promotions, covering not only cler-
ical and stenographic jobs, but also
such posts as public school teachers,
policemen, firemen and social well
fare workers.
Proposed by Legion.
Now the American Legion Is sup
porting q proposed constitutional
amendment to broaden this AdvAn-
tage for approximately fiye years
to include all veterans, whether
disabled or not. The Legislature
approved this concurrent resolution
last year; it has been reintroduced,
and If passed again, will be submit
ted to the voters next November.
Under it a veteran making pass
ing examination mark of 10 auto
matically would receive preference
over a civilian with higher grade.
Opponents, of which there are
many, claim such policy would
wreck the merit system, lower the
standard of public service /" and
discourage any civilian OF ability
from choosing civil service career
Twenty-one opposing organiza-
lions, including the Civil Service
Reform Association, have sponsored
another proposed amendment which
would limit the preference to a
l0-point advantage to disabled vet
Grams in qualifying civil service ex-
Aminations, and a five-point advan-
tage to other former servicemen,
Sees Substantial Advantage.
William D. Embree, New York
City, chairman of committee rep
resenting the 81 organizations, said
this plan would give veterans
substantial advantage without shut
ting out entirely the younger gen
Grafton"
The American Legion measure
has distinct advantage because
of its prior passage last year. Some
legislators who wish to give re-
turned veterans a civil service ad-
vantage support the measure be-
cause, the voters willing, it could
be made effective late this year.
No other proposal could be adopted
prior to the winter of 1947. 1t would
have to be passed by the 1945 Legis-l
lature, and again in 1947 when the
next Legislature meets, before be-
ing presented to the voters. New
York Legislatures meet each year,
but are chosen every other year.

Probe Death
Of Woman, II
chorred Body
Found in Home

RALEIGH, N. c., April 3-tP
Police sought an explanation
today for the strange death of a
wealthy 7l-year-old clubwoman
who was active in entertaining
soldiers on furlough.
Coroner Roy NJ. Banks termed
circumstances surrounding the
death of Mrs. John V. Higham
very mysterious" and said he
would not hold an inquest pend
ing further police investigation.
Mrs. Higham was found dead
yesterday morning in her home
in the fashionable Hayes Barton
section, her body charred and
her skull fractured.
The body was several feet
from the base of the stairway, as
if she had started toward the
front door, the coroner said. She
could have fallen down the
stairs, he added, but there was
no evidence that she did.
Mrs. Higham kept box of
jewels in a box in her bedroom
and neighbors reported that she
was keeping some of them for
servicemen, Banks said.
Firemen have not been able to
find the jewel box nor learn the
case of the fire, which apparent
ly began in the bedroom. Two
diamonds which Mrs. Higham
customarily wore were missing
from her fingers.
Most of her clothes had been
burned away. Part of her cor
set, however, was found under
her body. This led Banks to
theorize that she was clothed
and had not retired for the night.
The coroner said that al
though the aged woman usually
entertained servicemen in her
home over week-ends. she had
no gusts this week end, so far as
he had been able to determine.

Nozis Prote
Of Allied
Atrocities
BY THOMAS HAWKINS

BENIN, switzerland, April j.
(P) - Nazis propagandists are
resorting to widespread use of
obviously fictitious stories of AL
lied atrocities in last effort to
spur military and civilian resist
ance in the waning hours of the
Third Reich.
he readers of German news
papers find this new hate cam
paign splurged across the front
pages. The real war news, now
so dismal for the Nazis, has gone
to the inside pages except for an
occasional guarded army COM
munique in the lower left hand
corner of page one.
Adolf Hitler's own Voelkis-
cher Beobachter keynoted the
campaign with screaming head
line such as there: Brutal hate

A story with a Stuttgart date
line declared Negro soldiers
were forcing women in Cologne
to clean latrines. asserted that
American soldiers beat up a
German woman who refused to
pose for picture and left her
to die, and recounted that an
American soldier cooked doled
out weak coffee to German
woman who gave him wrist
watch in payment for milk for
her baby.
Not since the war started has
such vindictive material appear
ed even in the most official
Nazi organs. To usually we'll in
formed Allied observers it sig
nalized a desperate effort to
keep some outward resistance
going until the Nazis can form
an underground organization
with possibly Berchtesgaden as
a headquarters.
The emergence of the "Were-
wolves" and other guerrilla
bands which the Germans say
are operating behind Allied lines
were seen as part of this pro-
jected movement.
The Lausanne Gazette COM
mented that German resistance
after the armed forces are brok-
en- is improbable because the
population deeply discouraged,
has passed the point where it
will be capable of an act of high
energy; its will to resistance
will tumble with the debacle Of
the Armies"
The National Zeitung in Ba-
sci saw in the "Werewolves" a
sign that a hopeless lend of the

Hitler's headquarters.

Werewolves "is very simple. >"

Questioning Of Political
Prisoners SPECIALIZED Task

man tank in the West African
desert in 1942-43.
In desert Terrain, where visi-
bility is excellent, the tank was
the decisive weapon and the
range of its guns was all impor-
tant. Bayerlein says Rommel' s
doctrine was hit them when
they can't hit you, meaning be
able TO smash enemy tanks with
your guns before ne can &c.
close enough for his guns TO be
effective.
AT Alamein the British used
Sherman tanks for the first time
and with sensational success.
The majority Of the German
tanks were Mark Threes and
Mark Fours and were equipped
almost exclusively with short
barreled guns of 80 and rs mil
limeter caliber. Bayerlein says
almost all the German tanks
were destroyed al medium and
long range before their own
guns were close enough to be
effective.
The superiority OF the Sher-
man tanks again became appar-
ent in the battles of Ell Acheila
in December 1912 and Mareth
in March 1943. But The situation
changed again in the battle of
Sid Bou lid. The 21st Panzer
Division was equipped secretly
with Mark Fours carrying long
range 75S. Having lost the adj
vantage Of range, the United
States First Armored Division
was outmaneuvered and eventu-
ally defeated by the more expe.

WIESBADEN, Germany Up
A small group of highly Spe-
cialized United States Army Of
ficers representing all branches
of the service have the import
ant task of questioning all mill
tary and political prisoners as
they fall into Allied hands,
In a country such as Germany
is now, with communications
ruined, cities leveled and trav-
ell greatly restricted, the officers
work in teams known as mobile
field interrogation units. The
simplilied name is Matiu.
The identity Of the prisoner
determines which units have
priority. Goering, as chief of the
German air force, first was
handed over to the air prisoner
of war Interrogation detachment
who cross. examined him on ev-
cry phase Of the Luftwaffe. of
iensively and defensively, and
also on his knowledge of Allied
airpower. Later he was ques-
toned by officers interested in
the political side Of Goering s
experiences as one OF the mem
bers of Hitler's inner circle.
When 3rigadier Ferdinand
FURY came into Allied custody,
he was Intercepted by repre-
sentatives of the Board Of
Chemical warfare. FURY,
well known toxologist Of Wur-
tenburg University, served as
medical advisor OF the German
Chemical Warfare Board. His
title Of Brigadier was honorary
and implied no military author;-
ty.
However, he is an authority
on all types OF poisons and since
large quantities of new poison
gas known as Green Ring
Three" were discovered in un-
foreground vaults after the Ger
man Army collapsed, our chem
ical experts were extremely
anxious to question him.
Whether FURY satisfied their
curiosity remains top secret
matter.
When General Fritz Bayer-
lein surrendered the remnant OF
his tank corps in the Ruhr April
is he was questioned at great
length by officers interested in
armored vehicles and mobile
warfare.
Bayerlein was frank COM
mentator and his record on both
African and European battle
fields led American officers to
describe him in their official re-
ports as "a soldiers soldier"
One OF his most revealing
comments referred TO his first
encounter with the US. Sher-
