Arab League Strips
Mufti OF His Power
BY the Associated Press

JERUSALEM, Mar. 10.-The Arab
League has stripped the Mufti of
Jerusalem, Hal Amin ell Husseini, of
virtually all his power.
The seven-nation league, with
headquarters in Cairo, has taken
over full military and political con.
troll in the affairs of Palestine's
1,250, 900 Arabs.
The Arab Higher Executive in
Palestine, headed by the Mufti, now
deals only with such internal affairs
as collection of taxes, export of
citrus fruit and settlement of tribal
blood feuds. The fight against Zion
ism and partition is directed from
Cairo.
The Mufti still Is exiled from Pal
estine by the British, as he has been
since his flight from the Holy Land
to Germany just before the war,
During recent Arab League sessions,
the Mutt sought unsuccessfully to
have himself named head Of pro-
visional Palestine government, Arab
spokesmen say. The, League coun-
tered by creating three man Arab
Administrative Committee. -
The Mufti's loss of power In
some Arab states has been ac-
complished by a drop in prestige in
Palestine itself. qualified Palestine
observers report.
The most powerful Arab force In
the Holy Land, Faw1 Bey Al
Kaukji's volunteer army, ignores the
Mufti'S existence.

|2,35O Doctors in Next
Years, Legion Is Told

The Veterans Administration viii
have to recruit IS per cent Of the
available" graduates Of the Ma
tion's medical schools during the
next five years to meet its needs in
veterans hospitals.

agency's requirements yesterday at
the opening session Of three-day
rehabilitation conference Of the

within the next five years. The
agency this summer will lose about
l 200 doctors who were trained In

Navy Viz courses. Additional doc
tors will be needed to staff 65,000
new hospital beds which VA hopes
to open by the end Of 1850.
DR.. Freer said that during the
t1ye-year period. about $4,000 new
doctors will be graduated from
schools, but that 1920 will be need
ed to take the places of those who
die or retire during that time.
VAS need amounts to IS per cent
of the 6,750 doctors remaining, he
said.
In addition, DR.. Freer said, the
agency will need 21,000 nurses
within another five years. He said
VA now has about 1000.
Isolated Posts Offer Difficulty.
The medical official said the
greatest difficulty will be to find
doctors and nurses who are willing
to work at hospitals in isolated re-
gions, where many of the Army and
Navy doctors now are assigned.
The 500 Legion rehabilitation Of
f1cers, who represent every State
today will discuss veterans claims
and insurance programs of the vet
erans' agency. The conference is

Swiss Protest Mixture
Of Alcohol in Gasoline.
BY the Assoeioted Press

BERN, Switzerland.-Swiss mo-
torists are raising protest against
the compulsory admixture of wood
alcohol in gasoline.
During the war, the Swiss gov
ernment contracted for 11,000 tons
of wood-alcohol per year, until 1854,
to supplement limited gasoline i'm
ports. Although a large proportion
of this substitute fuel is now con-
sumed by the Swiss Army and post
office, the government insists that
the remainder shall be mixed with
all imported fuels until termination
of the contract. The mixture is
less economical and Of poorer quail
ity than pure gasoline, but is sold
without rationing restrictions for
approximately SO cents a gallon.
