TO OUR FOLKS ABROAD

~ OOK FOLhS AbNOAD
Dear Folks:
Peace be unto you!
"And Jesus said unto
him, No man having put
his hand to the plough,
and looking back, is fit
for the kingdom of God"
st. Luke 1852.
l am writing many miles
from home. We are in the
City of Melbourne, Florida.
After supper we went to call
on Frank Mole at his shoe re-
pair shop. We certainly sur
prised him and had a nice visit
there. Elsie Mole had gone
home so we did not see her. FL
der called her on the phone for
directions how to reach them.
On Wednesday we arrived
in Columbus, Georgia. May
Studebaker and her daughter,
Betty, were on the porch look
ing for us. Bill came home la
ter, and we had a wonderful
dinner. Another daughter,
Edna Bombay, joined us. We
spent a pleasant evening by
the fireside, talking about old
times. Then we had family
worship and retired.
On Thursday, Bill came home
early and took us around to
see some of Columbus. We
had dinner at a restaurant and
went to see the Southern Con-
lection Factory where Bill
works. After arriving back at
their home, we had to leave.
After good-byes were said,
we were on the highway to
Tallahassee, where we had
very comfortable tourist cot
tage. In the morning we were
on our way again. The wealth
er was very warm and sunny.
We stopped for glasses of or
ange juice at the Old Oaken
Bucket Shoppe.
We visited an ancient fort in
ST. Augustine, Florida, built by
the Spaniards in 1872. The
boys took pictures.
The Camellias are blooming
in different colors. There is a
Poinsettia in bloom outside my
window.
Today we visited the Orient
al Gardens. They are very
beautiful. We are all enjoying
everything.
[ will try to write more next
week.
May the Lord bless each one
and all Zion everywhere.
From the Folks at Home,
Mrs. Arthur A. Wright,
2918 Edna Boulevard.

IVA Turns Over Names
.0f Accused Doctors

DR.. Paul B. Magnuson, medical
director Of the Veterans Admins
tration, has turned over to the
American Medical Association the
names Of 2s doctors suspected o1
"chiseling" in the treatment of wal
veterans, it was learned today.
None of the doctors, whose names
we're withheld, lives in the Wash

removed from authorized VA lists

region, 4 in Philadelphia, 4 in Pitts
burgh, l in Norfolk, 3 in Chicago, !

l in San Francisco. Eight others
still being investigated, were not
otherwise described.
The doctors are among about s5,-
600 physicians authorized to give
veterans hometown treatment and
bill the VA for the expense under
a schedule of set fees.
The offenses ranged from minor
violations of the programs regula-
tions to fraud, the medical chief
said. One doctor, he said, charged
the VA $3.50 for treatment to a vet
eran and then billed the patient
for another 500. Several others,
he said, charged the agency for
more treatment than was given.

Single Chief for IVA
Urged by DR.. Morgan
BY the Associated Press

T DR.. Arthur E. Morgan, first chair
man OF the Tennessee Valley Au-
thority, recommended today that q
single administrator instead of a
three-man Board of Directors should
run the agency.
Dr. Morgan was fired by President
Roosevelt in 1888 for disobeying or
ders after clash with David E.
Lilienthal. then a member of the
board. He made his recommends
ton to Senate subcommittee
studying proposed changes in the
IVA law.
The Board of Directors for the
IVA" he said, should be Congress
with single administrator carrying
out policies set by Congress.
He said one of Mr.. Rooseyelt's
ideas regarding IVA was that it
should have the power of govern
ment but with the freedom of action
OF a private corporation"
Seldom does a business have
three administrators he added.
The departments of the Govern
ment have a secretary, not three
secretaries"
TWAS board now includes Cor
don r. Clapp, chairman; James P.
Pope, former Idaho Senator, and
DR.. H. A. Morgan, former University
of Tennessee president.
The former chairman also recon-
mended that Congress provide for "a
continuing review Of the TVA-and
other independent agencies, too-to
see II they are following the purposes
Of the laws creating them"

Big Powers Urge U. N.
To Act in Palestine,
But Fail 10 Say How
by Me Associated Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Mar. 1s.-The
big powers recommended to the
United Nations Security Council
today that it take immediate
steps to restore peace in Pal
estine.
No mention was made as to how
this should be done.
Warren r. Austin, chief American
delegate, presented the I findings
which emerged from two weeks of
closed-door consultations among the
four powers on the Palestine crisis
Mr.. Austin said the United States,
France and China were in full agree
ment but that the Soviet Union
would state its own case to the
Council.
Boycotted by Britain.
Britain boycotted the big power
talks and had no part in the report
Mr.. Austin said the big powers
hoped to continue their private talks
in efforts to reach some agreement
on how to carry out the recon-
mendations.
The big power majority report said
1t was apparent that the U. N
ASsembly's plan to partition the
Holy Land into independent Jewish
and Arab nations could not be car
ried out by peaceful means. 1t was
noted that the Jewish Agency Woulo
accept no notifications in the parti-
ton plan and that the Arab Higher
Committee, spokesman for Palestine
Arabs, rejected any solution based
on partition.
Almost In Agreement.
A United Nations press officer said
the United States, Russia, France
and China were in virtual agree
ment on the conclusions.
The press officer said the sole
point Of disagreement was over
whether the phrase "by land Oh
sea" should be used in describing
lnf1ltration into Palestine of persons
intent on violence. Russia alone
objects to this clause.
Without the additions of the land
or-sea phrase, the report would in
effect lay all the blame for fighting
on the Arabs, bitter foes of parti-
ton.
Must Insure Peace.
The press officer said the conclu-
sions in the report included these
basic points.
]. The Security Council must
make 1t clear that it is determined
not to permit the existence of a
threat to peace in Palestine.
2. The Security Council must take
every step within its power to end
violence and disorder in the Holy
Land.
The Council asked the big powers
for help March after the U. N,
Palestine Commission requested an
international armed force to carry
out partition in the face of Arab
opposition.
Britain insists she will give I'D
rule In the Holy Land May IS. turn
ing over authority to the U. N.
Commission.
