Proposal Would Limi
Earnings Of Doctors
Treating Veterans

"A suggestion that doctors be
limited to earning 5000 a year for
treating veterans was made today to
the American Legion's Rehabilita-
ton Executive Committee.
DR.. H. D. Shapiro, medical con-
sultant for the Legion, said some
doctors were being paid as much as
$4,000 month for treating veterans.
This, he said, was in addition to the
income they received from their reg
ular practice.
He said some doctors were being
paid for making between 20 and 80
examinations day, "an obvious i'm
possibility" He said in his opinion
no doctor could earn more than
$4,000 a year by treating veteran
out-patients and still take care of
his own practice.
No Ceiling at Present.
Mr.. Shapiro said he thought the
committee should support a'"plan
now under consideration by the
Veterans Administration to limit
payments to any one doctor to q
maximum of 5000 a year. Under
present rules physicians who. treat
veterans for service- e-connected dis
abilities have no overall ceiling on
the amount they can earn in q
year.
Judge Wilbur Alter of the Colo
RADIO Supreme Court said he was
opposed to putting any wage cell
ing on doctors, and the committee
then decided to defer action on the
suggestion until study of the VA
medical setup could be made.
There was possibility, however,
that the matter would come up for
debate at the Legion's rehabilitation
conference which begins here
tomorrow and lasts through Friday.
Survey to Be Discussed.
Robert M. McCurdy of Pasadena,
Calf. chairman of the Rehabilita-
ton Committee, said the conference
would discuss the advisability of
making a general overall survey of
all VA services.
He said the committee thought
that newly constructed veterans
hospitals should be located in or
near medical schools and medical
centers.
He suggested, however, that
feeder" hospitals of 200 beds or less
could be built in localities where
medical centers were not available.
These, he said, would be chiefly for
emergency treatment, for less
serious cases and for convalescents.
The question of the location Of
veterans hospitals also will be dis
cussed at the conference.

Federal Aid Supported
To EquaIize Schooling
Throughout Country
BY the A.soeioied Press

DR.. John w. Studebaker, United
States commissioner of education,
said today disparities between edu-
cational opportunities in various
States can be wiped out only by
Federal aid, but he cautioned against
Government controls of schools.
He said there is a possibility that
"a system of education centrally
controlled might be prostituted to
propagandistic purposes of politi-
cal party in control of the Gov
ernment."
DR.. Studebaker's testimony was
prepared for delivery before Sen
late Labor Subcommittee which
planned to wind up today nearly two
weeks of hearings on bills which
would authorize grants to the States
for school purposes.
Legislation Is Approved.
Dr.. Studebaker said the evidence
in support of such legislation is
abundant and convincing" and he
declared:
THE present crisis in education,
| to which so much public attention
has recently been directed by the
press, is the elimination of long
period of accumulating deficiencies,
accentuated by the strains Of war
! time.
I'VE have long known that gross
inequalities in educational oppor-
! tunity existed, especially in the rural
regions of the Nation.
Farm Bureau Federation Approves.
The vicious circle of economic
handicap and educational under
privilege can be broken only by
drawing upon the wealth of the
whole Nation in support of de-
cent educational program for the
children and youth of the whole
Nation"
Other Organizations Subscribe.
The Farm Bureau Federation also
subscribed to the policy of Federal
aid to public schools, saying:
I'VE believe that Federal assist
ance to the States for the improve
ment of public elementary and sec
ondary schools can and should be
provided in such a manner as to
