Il ambitious than the Marshall Plan, it's
still piece of American aid to Europe worth
knowing about The man back of it isn't
statesman, and he isn't general - in fact,
he's just an MP staff sergeant. But to 1900
homeless old people and children, he's Uncle
Sam himself.
When Texas-born Sergeant William Scog-
gins was slogging through Italy and France
with the hard-bitten 45th Division, he never
dreamed he'd wind up his military career as
nursemaid to a castle-full of homeless and
helpless refugees

by Russian gunfire, and the grounds are lit

refugees are '@VoIksdeutsche," Germans
expelled from Yugoslavia, Hungary and
Rumania.
Nobody wants 'em," Sergeant Scoggins
says. They're just bunch of jokers left
over from the war, but somebody's got to
take care of 'em."
He pointed to a gnarled mustached old

sons in Yugoslavia. He used to just sit around
with his head in his hands. Then found him
a job. He's our baby-sitter He watches the
little kids and makes sure they don't fall off
the terraces or swipe tomatoes out of the gar
den. Hi, Pop!" The old mans face lighted up
in wrinkled grin.
"'m Sort Of Fond Of 'Exn"
I'm REALLY king of this place." the Ser
geant went on, leading the way through the
castle grounds, now turned into vegetable
gardens. A row of squat barracks, built to
house the Nazis' slave laborers, is now filled

show with an easygoing efficiency that keeps

 Paul Porter, former OPA ad- ministrator, took a draft of pro- posed legislation to the House banking committee. He argued to the committee as President Truman did in his message to the special Congress session on Tues day-that without imitation curbs the nation is flirting with a pos sible economic collapse.
 But Porter said that even with the controls proposed he would not expect an immediate reduc- ton of price levels. He added:
 "We do expect them to end the upward march of prices and to reduce, so far as is possible at this late date, the threat of future collapse"
 The bill proposes also limited powers between now and June 30, 1850:
 l. To ration a few products in short supply. 2. Some authority over wages in the manufacture of items put under price control.
 3. Restoration of war time con- trols over consumer credit, such as restraints on installment buy ing.
