Criticize Medical Waste In Veterans Administration


 Capitol Hill against economies at the expense of veterans.
 The report was drafted by a task force" of the commission headed by former President Her bert Hoover studying government al reorganization.
 It said that this year alone more than A government agencies spent approximately Sl, ,250, 100000 for health and medical services and 24,000,000 persons were taken care of by the government in some degree.
 The report saw no letup in spending next year, noting that the Veterans Administration alone will spend as much in l949 for medical services as all federal agencies spent for that purpose in l948.
 "The federal government is as suming uncalculated obligations without any understanding of their ultimate cost, the lack of the necessary professional manpoWer to cardy the mout, or their adverse effect upon the hospital system of the country" the report said. It cited cases of new hospitals being built by one agency in the neighborhood of existing and un- filled hospitals operated by an other agency. Dozens of federal hospitals could be closed and the patients transferred to other quar- .erS, the committee added.
 The committee said Congress should "clearly define" the bene- ficiaries of federal aid and added ! ''too large a part of the medical resources of the armed forces are devoted to the care of civilians, veterans and dependnts of mili- ! NdIy pCI SOIillSl.

NLRB Rules SawmiII
Must Bargain With
Union on Meal Price
BY the Associated Press

The National Labor Relations
Board ruled 4 to yesterday that
the operators of a sawmill deep in
the woods had to bargain with his
workers union on prices of meals
charged at the company dining
rooms.
The board refused to order the
timber firm to pay back to the
workers meal price increases the
company put into effect without
consulting the union.
The case involved the Weyer-
haeuser Timber Co.'s sawmill and
logging camps near klamath
Falls, Oreg., and the International
Woodworkers of America.
The board found that the saw
mill and logging camps are so
far away from town that some
workers are required to live and
eat at company facilities.
The four-man majority said
this meant the prices charged the
workers for meals served by the
company are part Of their condi-
tions of employment and the en-
ployer is obliged to bargain with
the union on any meal price
changes.
Board Member J. Copeland Gray
dissented, saying the majority rul-
ing was IAN unwarranted extern
sion of the bargaining obligations
placed on the employers under
the (Federal Labor Relations)
act"
The majority said that prices Of
company served meals at isolated
sawmill and logging camps has
been a matter for a Substantial
amount of collective bargaining"
in the industry In the past.

The Commissioners have called

heads at 2:30 pm. Monday TO
discuss the feasibility of such a

mended to the Commissioners
that centralized bookkeeping be

ment do its own payroll
The school officials, like other
city department officials. prepare
their own payrolls and send them
to Mr.. Pilkerton, who then writes
the checks.
Mr.. Pilkerton's proposals would
place the whole procedure under

over even the checking Of all city
employees attendance.
The school board yesterday
adopted, by a poll Of members
a report from School Supt. Hobart

to the change. DR.. Corning said
the transfer would interfere with
the authority of the school board
over its own employees.

because it would transfer partial

Worthington Defeats
Plain City for Title

Worthington downed Pla in
City, 1864, Friday night to take
the championship of the top
bracket of the central district
basketball tournament at Wester-
vile.
The ScottieS took an early lead
and were still ahead 1913 at half
time. Shearer put Worthington
ahead early in the second half
and there they stayed although
Plain City made a valient last
period surge that fell short of its
mark.
Worthington led 1927 at the
end of the third period and ap-
peared to have things their own
way until Plain City, paced by
Chuck Ferguson, one of the best
basketball players in this area,
pulled within three points of
them with three minutes of play
remaining.
Then Plain City ran into the
same thing as Marysville did
against Lockland-Wayne in the
regionals last spring. Worthington
put on a long range stall and held
the scoring to one Scottie free
throw in the last three minutes.

County, Marysville Schools Given
S669l Reimbursement by Government

the program submit affidavits in
Idicating expenses for instruction
al costs. The second distribution
will be made in August. Joseph
r. Strobel, state director of voca-
'tional education added that this
distribution is made according to
a formula which considers the
amount of state and federal funds
available in relation to the total
costs of operating approved To-
cal programs.
"The' amount or money now
being distributed is approximately
the same as last year." said Mr.
Strobel, "but actually the schools
are receiving less money because
of increased costs of maintaining
the program. This means that a
greater share of the cost is being
absorbed by local communities"
Local boards of education are as
20 per cent of the cost in
trades and industries, 63 per
cent in home econimics, SO per
cent in agriculture and 81 per
cent in distributive education for
the high school program.
DR.. Hissong commented on the
fact that Ohio has had an excell-
ent program in this field. "Over
the years." he said, "the state
board for vocational education
has reimbursed local groups for
so per cent of instructional costs.
Now it is apparent that more
state aid will be needed for this
type of education if we are to re-
turn to the normal reimburse
ment figures"

bursement by the federal govern
ment for its share of the salary
and mileage expenses of the vo-
cational education teachers. The
payment was originally supposed
to be so percent of the total but
the increase in the number of de-
partments has cut the federal aid
to Al percent for the vo-ag. de-
