Claims
Against GIs 10 Cost
u. ). 10 Millions
By Steffon Andrews
North Amerieon Newspaper Alliance


Shenanigans of CTS overseas dur
ing and after the war will cost
American taxpayers an estimated
$40 900 900 in damage bills.
That's the conclusion Army and
Navy officials here have reached
after surveying the stack of foreign
damage claims that has piled up.
The Army has disclosed that it
is in the process of paying out about
S., ,000, 600 on some $4,000 individual
claims filed since the end Of the
war. The Navy said that its claim
payments total about 100000.
The bulk of the bills are for
thousands of cases Of personal and
real property damage allegedly
caused by American soldiers and
sailors overseas.
Swiss Town Bombed in Error.
Most countries reject such claims
on their troops as battle losses. But
the United States settles up without
pickering.
The biggest single bill, totaling
$4,000 900, is that paid to date for
an alleged breach Of neutrality when
United States bomber crew mis-
takenly droped load of bombs on
a small Swiss town.
AS rule, the United States does
not allow claims for combat loss.
But it pays out promptly for prop
erty destroyed by its occupation
troops-mistakenly or otherwise.
Claims commissions have been set
up in Germany, Italy, Japan, Trieste,
Korea, Iceland, Hawaii, the Philip
pines, Panama, Trinidad, Jamaica,
the Azores and British Guiana.
Typical Is the case of the British

landowner who charged that some
Of his trees had been cut down by
American soldiers stationed in Eng
land. AS evidence, the Briton pro-
duced a paper signed-"Pvt. Morti-
mer Snerd."
The claims commission took one
look at the paper and paid almost
without question. 1t agreed that
only some playful CT could have
signed such paper.
The Army and Navy are permit
ted by direct congressional authori-
zation to settle such small individ-
ual claims on the spot. But any
thing above 5000 requires passage
of a special bill by Congress.
Probably the smallest payment
on record is one totalling So 33. The
sum was paid to a native of Tonga
Evening star., 1948-07-12

Tabu for five coconut trees which
he alleged GIs had cut down.
Battle Of Kasserfne Pass.
One of the largest claims ever
turned down was for 14,600, 900
francs. A Tunisian farmer charged
the battle Of Kasserine Pass was
fought on his land and insisted he
was entitled to recoup his losses.
The farmer did not press the Ger
mans for payment. He wanted the
United States to pay up. The
Government pointed out that this
was case of battle loss,' and he
would have to be satisfied with SAB
for actual occupation damage.
There are countless other little
payments on the records, ranging
from personal injury in jeep acci-
dents to Army and private motor
vehicle collisions on foreign soil.

Take My Word for 1t
By Frunk Colby
Words to Watch.

One Of the queerest mispronunci-
ations I have ever heard occurred
recently on a Town Meeting broad
cast. The error was made by the
noted writer, Henry Hazlitt, who
said "dy-OG-nuh-siss" for the word
diagnosis. The correct pronuncia
ton has always been: DY-ag-
NO-siss.
1t all goes to emphasize what I
have said more than once: Most Of
us have in our .vocabularies a few
words that we not only mispro-
nounce but which we often misuse
and misspell as well.
If this article happens to come
to Mr.. Hazlitt's attention, I hope
he will not feel bad about "dy-OG-
nuh-siss," for he has much illus
trious company in the mispronunci-
alton of familiar words. For ex-
ample:
Leon Henderson, "SLO-gum" for
slogan. The late F. D. r. "uh-PLIK-
able" for applicable. Gen. Douglas
Macarthur, ''uh MOG . uh DON"
for Armageddon Correct: abr -muh-
GED-un). H. V. Kaltenborn
"RUSH-ee-uh" for Russia. Herbert
Hoover, "kote" for quote and "ko-
TAY-shun" for quotation. Admiral
William F. Halsey, "AG-run-DIzE-
ment" for aggrandizement Correct:
uh- GRAN -dizz- mt.
There are many more, Of course:
but this space is limited and the
examples given are sufficient to L.
luStrate my point.
Let me editorialize by observing
that all of us should strive for
good speech and accurate pronunci-
ations. The ability to speak well Is
an asset of inestimable value in AL
most every human endeavor.
Of course, there is no law that
compels US to speak correctly, and
many a person has risen to great
success in spite Of poor speech.
good speech has never
yet marred the fortunes Of man
or woman.
AS to broadcasters, allow me to
repeat what I have said before:
The way you speak is your own
business. But when you speak on
the radio, it's everybody's business.
Do you have diffculty in using the
words affect and effect II so, Mr.. Colby's
leafet, C-1. will help you.
