SLAYER of Don MeIIett Devises
Speedier .TB Test in Prison

habilitation which pins a media
On Ohio's penal system, but the i'm.
portant thing to society-even more
important than the change In
McDermott-is his sputum test.
A report prepared for publication
in technical journals says McDerm-
otis method permits immediate use
of sputum taken directly from the
patient and colors bacilli selectively
so they can be seen and readily
identified.
The method now IS the accepted
procedure at the prison hospital
and several Columbus hospitals are
using the test experimentally.
Among the things McDermott uses
are carbol fuchsin, acid alcohol,
chloramine-t, acetic acid, sodium
bicarbonate and ordinary tap water.
Because Pat has no background of
scientific education, the exact means
which obtains the tests effective
ness is not yet known. The solu-
tions he prepares seem to dissolve
foreign matter on the tests slide,
but doctors still are trying to find
out just what does happen.
The Canton triggerman, strangely
enough, got into this laboratory
business when he himself was near
death from tuberculosis, brought on
by his abortive escape attempt in
that 1929 snowstorm. Physicians
once gave him few months to live.
He is now in his 40s. He will come up
for parole consideration within a
month or two as a result of a new
law which lets the Ohio Pardon and
Parole Commission commute SEN
tences of first degree lifers to second
degree after 20 years, making them
eligible for paroles.

Collins Outlines Plans
fanny and Navyfor
Universal Traininq
By the Associated Press

Army and Navy plans to train
$4,000 teen-age youths annually If
Congress approved universal mill
tary training legislation were out
lined today to House Armed Serv-
ices Subcommittee.
The leadoff witness for the armed
forces, 1t. Gen. j. Lawton Collins,
the Army's chief of public informa-
ton, emphasized that the Army
would approach the program from
a strictly military" standpoint.
He estimated that every year
100000 youths attain the age of
18, the minimum for training un-
der the proposed law which the COM
mittee is considering. OF these, he
said, statistics indicate that 100000
would be unsuitable for military
training and 10000 would volunteer
in the Army or the Navy.
OF the remaining 850,000, he said,
the Army would train $4,000 and
the Navy 10000. Trainees would
be given the option, within limits,
of taking their six-month training
course in the Army Ground or Air
Forces, tine Navy or the Marine
Corps.
Present plans call for quarterly
induction schedules.
The subcommittee expects to COM
plete its hearings this week and
report on the bill to the full COM
mittee next week.
Backers OF the legislation are
planning to put the full committee
on record in favor of the proposal
even though it cannot reach the
House or Senate at this session.
They said they expect the group
to accept bill following generally
the recommendations of President
Truman's special commission. This
calls for six months of military
training for all able-bodied youths
as soon as possible after their 18th
birthdays.
Present plans call for approval by
a subcommittee Monday and by the
full committee the following day.
Backers Of the bill said they have
at least 20 and possibly Is Of the
80 votes in the full coumittee.
There seems to be nothing that
we can do about It," Representative
Short, Republican, Of Missouri. who
opposes the bill, told . reporter.
"We just don't have the votes. The
bill probably will be reported out
next Tuesday"
Representative .Arends, Republi-
can, of Illinois, who also is against
action this year, agreed that spon-
sors OF the measure have the upper
hand.
However, Majority Leader Halleck
has announced that the legislation
has no place on the docket for action
before adjournment later this month.
Before legislation could reach the
floor it would have to receive clear
ance from the House Rules Com
mittee, whose IL members are d.
vided on the subject.
I'VE have no intention Of send
ing it out this session." a high
ranking Republican member Of the
rules group told reporters. 1T is
too important and controversial a
matter to consider on short notice.
The bill was introduced only last
week and only a few members are
familiar with its details"
