here, urged that citizens think OF
veterans as members of the COM

II do not know of a single in
stance where the public press, the
organizations or the individual citi-
zens considered the veteran of to-
day problem before he went into
the service" he declared. 1T is
most aggravating to me to be TOLD
by any one that the veteran is a
problem to that same community
today. If there is any problem, that
problem is the community and not
the veteran"
Mr.. Leonard also called on the
community to furnish job oppor-
tunities for veterans. Indications
are that veterans unemployment
numbers will increase, he said, land
then there will be a cry that we
have a veteran problem of unem.
plcyment. l think the convention
should give serious consideration to
| the thought that this is not a
prohsem of veterans unemployment
1t is going to be problem OF lack

Democrats in House
Row Over Naming Of
PAC Election Probers
BY the A.,oeioted Press

A new row over the C1O broke
out today among House Democrats,
with Speaker Rayburn himself in
the midst of the battle.
The immediate issue in the cur
rent controversy is who shall be the
chairman and members of a special
committee being set up to investi-
gate this years congressional elec-
tions.
But the basic point of dispute is
the degree and manner in which
the group may look into activities of
the CLOS Political Action Com
mittee. This depends largely, of
course. on the ones chosen to 90 the
investigating.
Resolution Starts Row,
Southern Democrats in control of
the House Rules Committee started
fur flying when they met in closed
session and approved a resolution
by Representative Domengeaux,
Democrat, of Louisiana authorizing
creation of the campaign investi-
eating group.
The Southerners-frequently at
odds with Speaker Rayburn and the
administration-did this despite the
Speakers Endorsement of similar
measure by Representative ONeal,
Democrat, OF Kentucky.
Fl BY precedent the author of the
resolution finally adopted by the
House is chosen chairman of the
committee.
The Southerners said they picked
Mr.. DomengeauX because they knew
he would go after" the clio and
thoroughly examine election actiyi-
ties of the Political Action Com
mittee.
Some of them told newsmen pri-
vately they thought Mr.. O'Neals
approach to the question would be
different, because of heavy C1O
voting bloc in his home district.
These comments irked the Speak
er and when radio commentator
referred to Mr.. ONeal as a "CIO
man 1t provoked Mr.. Rayburn into
the highly-unAsual action, for him.
Of issuing a statement.
In the statement, handed news
men late Yesterday, the Speaker
praised Mr.. O'Neal highly and said
I wanted him for chairman =.
because he is fair, a man of out
standing ability and possesses a
judicial temperament"
Mr.. Rayburn still is in the drivers
seat about the committee chairman
and It's members, because he picks
them.

House Approves Admitting
Veterans Alien Fiancees
BY the Assoeioied Press

The House today passed legis-
lation to admit to the United States
the alien fiancees of members of the
armed forces.
The bill already approved by the
Senate, provides that aliens &C
tually engaged to service personnel
may enter the United States for
three months as visitors. and must
be deported if not married at the
end of the three months.
Representative Klein, Democrat,
of New York, estimated that the
bill would admit about $4,000 aliens,
principally from Australia.
The House added two amend
ments to the Senate version. One
would require that the American
consul in the country from which
the alien sweetheart comes be salts
fled that bona fide engagement
exists. The other would require
that bond be posted to cover re-
turn transportation costs if the
marriage does not take place.
The bill was returned to the
Senate for concurrence in these
amendments.

HELPFUL HINTS.

The family budget will go further
if menus are planned in advance
and shopping is done carefully. Per-
haps the most difficult part of the
menu to plan is the main dish. You
will find meat and cheese combine
well and may be made to go further
in tasty, creamed and escalloped
dishes.
A small amount of dried beef will
be delicious and will go long way
when creamed. And the milk in the
cream sauce helps to make up for
the amount of meat lacking. In
addition the milk adds valuable
vitamins and minerals to the diet.
The cheese and hard-cooked eggs
help to make this dish more savory
