ritories."
The British and American experts
the statement said believe that the
terms of the plan would allow the
immediate admission to Palestine of
l00,00O Jewish refugees from Europe
as recommended by an earlier Anglo
American commission.
In addition, 1t said. the plan
should allow for continuing immi-
grafton thereafter"
The statement said the four pro-
posed districts were:
l. A Jewish province to include
"the great bulk of the land on which
Jews have settled and considerable
area between and around the settle
ments."
2. Jerusalem zone, to include the
Holy City of Bethlehem and the i'm
mediate environs.
3. The Negeb district, triangle of
desert in the south of Palestine on
which few Jews have settled under
provisions of the 1910 land transfer
regulations.
T. An Arab province made up of
the remainder of Palestine.
The statement said the United
States Government will be asked TO
undertake the sole responsibility for
the sea transportation" of Jewish
refugees from Europe to Palestine.
Although final control of immi-
grafton still would remain with a
central government. that govern
ment would not have the power to
authorize immigration in excess of
that proposed by provincial gov
eminent" it said.
The Arab area, the statement said,
would be almost wholly Arab in
both land and population" Boun-
daries would be purely administra-
tive, having no significance in mark
ing out defense or custom areas or
the blishment of communication
systems.
The Anglo-American experts went
beyond consideration of resettlement
of Jewish wanderers In Europe and
suggested that Britain and the
United States, lin association with
other countries, should endeayor i'm
mediately to find new homes for all
displaced persons, irrespective of
creed and nationality"
Seek New Homes Overseas.
The statement said they recon-
mended resettlement of "substan-
tial number" of displaced persons in
Europe itself and, when everything
had been done in Europe. new homes
must be found overseas"
Among the plans being discussed
was one for settlement of a large
number of displaced persons in
BRAZIL and other South American
countries, the statement said

Broadening Of Bill
ToGiveAmputeesCars
Sought by Rankin

The bill to provide automobiles
for amputee war veterans may be
broadened to aid many other dis
abled ex-servicemen if the House
Rules Committee grants request
made today by Chairman Rankin
of the Veterans Committee for per-
mission to open the measure up to
floor amendments.
During a Rules Committee hear
ing several members indicated they
felt that if the bill is passed, it
should be broadened to make some
additional aid available to veterans
who are blind or disabled in some
manner other than through loss of
an arm or leg.
Representative Rankin said he
thought it unfortunate" that the
word automobile was ever used in
the bill.
Would Rather Pay Money.
Il would rather pay them the
money and let them use it as they
see fit" he said in asking that the
bill be opened up to other amend
mentS.
Mr.. Rankin deplored inclusion in
the CT Bill of Rights of employ
ment compensation for returning
veterans, and said that one million
men are on that roll now, draw
ing $20,000.000 a month. He said
that 1t would not take more than
100000 to give the $1,000 am
putees $500 apiece instead of an
automobile.
Representative Rogers, Republic
can, of Massachusetts,, leading ad-
vocate of the amputee- automobile
bill, told the Rules Committee it
was not offered as bonus, but as
rehabilitation measure to enable
men who have lost arms or legs to
transport themselves.
Decision Due Today.
The Rules Committee will de-
eide later today whether to grant
special rule on the bill.
Representative Rogers said she
/ would ask the Rules Committee for
a special rule to bring up the bill
later this week
The bill was called up yesterday
by Mr.. Rankin under procedure re-
quiring unanimous consent. Scores
of veterans who have been working
for the measure for weeks leaned
forward expectantly in their gallery
seats but groaned when Representa-
tive Wilmington, Democrat, of
Mississippi, objected.
In heated exchange in q cor
ridor, Mr.. Wilmington told group
of the veterans later he had OBJ
jected because he opposes dealing
with veterans in "piecemear man.
ner and that no such legislation
should be passed until "a further
and thorough investigation" of the
needs has been made
Well if you ask me, that's not
much of an explanation, snapped
Sergt. Milton Kornfeld of New York
City, patient at Walter Reed
Hospital.
| AS others began voicing objec-
tions, Mr.. Wilmington excused
himself, saying he had to answer
a quroum call
The bill, as approved by the COM
mittee, would provide $500 auto
mobiles for paralytics and those
with above-the-knee amputations
estimated to number 5000. AS
originally introduced by Mrs. Rog-
ers, the bill would have included
also about 5000 below the knee
amputeeS.

He bore down hard on his

Calls for Probe of Gifts.
Il hope that one outcome of the
committees labors will be to make
the Nations capital an improbable
and unhealthful place for men OF
the Benjamin F. Fields stripe, who
prey upon the Government and seek
to buy influence with money, par
ties, gifts and favors." he declared
Senator Mitchell, releasing his
speech in advance of delivery this
afternoon, called on the Justice De-
partment to give special attention
to expenditures such as the $19,213
for gifts in 1943 listed by the Erie
Basin Metal Products Co., Carson
company. Those items, he noted,
were disallowed by renegotiation
officers
The committee has not obtained
as yet the details on similar expen-
ditures made by this company for
1914 tod 1945," he continued.
Demands Punitive Action.
II propose to urge that the COM
mittee seek the full facts concern
ing such expenditures and others
made on behalf of the Batavia
Metals Products CO.
They must take appropriate
punitive measures against officers
who are easy in morals and careless
in administration. The military
uniform. in too many instances, has
been changed from cloak OF honor
and duty to a cloak of convenience
and responsibility"
Senator Mitchell declared that a
civilian worker in Chemical Warfare
Srvice, should not be permitted to
remain one hour longer in the en-
ploy of the Government in the face
of all the evidence which brands
him as an unfaithful public servant"
Fantastic Affairs Revealed.
Committee investigations and
hearings tod ate, Senator Mitchell
told the Senate, have shown con-
clusively certain financial manipu-
lations involving public funds which
most people would have thought
fantastic and impossible"
The question in my mind" he
continued, lis how many fantastic
operations could have been possible
unless sanctioned by Government
officials who failed in their high
duty of protecting the public
interest.
"One obvious answer is that off,
Gals down the line had been per-
suaded to give special consideration
and special favors to these con-
tractors. The conclusion is also in
escapable that these favors were
not merely in the nature of cour-
tesies or more prompt attention, but
that they involved outright cor
ruption.
Senator Mitchell remarked that
he was strengthened in this belief
because of "crass and sameful at
tempts to buy off member of the
committee Senator MitchelD and
of the staff in vain hope that we
would be dissuaded from continuing
the (Garsson) investigation"
The Senator said the committee
has been unable thus far to obtain
all the facts because no records
were kept by these contractors" The
committee also has been handi-
capped by the unwillingness of many
key witnesses to testify or to appear
ct hearings he said.

Those hills are unchanged. In
