sTRASBOURG, France, Aug.
17.-Winston Churchill suggested
today that an extraordinary ses-
sion of the European Consultative
Assembly be called in December
or January for the admission Of
Germany to the Council of Europe.
Mr.. Churchill. Britain's war.
time prime minister and her pres
ent Conservative Party leader.
said the admission of Germany
would be the greatest and most
important of all the questions
that are before U.S."
I'VE cannot part here at the
end of this month on the basis
that we do nothing more to bring
Germany into our circle until q
year has passed." he said.
Caution Urged in Unificati0n.
Earlier, British Deputy Prime
Minister Herbert Morrison told
the Assembly he favored immedi-
ate steps toward uniflcation Of
Europe, but he added that caution
must be observed.
Mr.. Morrison challenged the
Conservatives, led by Mr. Churchill.
to take their case to the British
electorate if they think the gov
ernment is moving too hesitantly.
I'm whatever we do" Mr.. Nor
rison said, I'VE must pay due re-
gard to the interests of the indi-
vidual member countries and, as
far as Britain is concerned. to the
ties which link us with the COM
monwealth of nations, and to
the responsibilities we share with
Belgium, France and the Neither
lands for the welfare of peoples
of other continents, notably the
great continent of Africa"
Il do not say that some collec-
tive European authority may not
in due course develop with specific
powers to decide certain matters
directly" Mr.. Morrison declared.
adding, new ideas do not frighten
mel just want to know with
some precision what they are"
Political Changes Discussed.
Mr.. Morrison spoke on the AS
sembly's most significant agenda
item-changes needed in the poll
tical structure Of Europe to bring
about greater unity among the
Council of Europe members.
In earlier debate forces led by
Mr.. Churchill, favoring a strong
Assembly, have appeared to DOM
mate the Assembly.
Among those who pumped yes
terday for a governing authority
which packs solid punch. was
Robert Boothby of Britain, who
declared there must be an "execu-
tive. international political au-
thority" to guide united Europe.
Another Briton. R. w. G. Mac
kay, Laborite. submitted resolu-
tion calling for a European au-
thority with limited functions but
real powers

VA Now Accepting Claims
Delayed by Enemy Action
BY The As.oeioied Press

The Veterans Administration
said today that it was accepting
retroactive pension and other
claims from persons who were un-
able to file wartime applications
because of enemy action.
The claims are from veterans
and dependents of deceased veter-
ans who became eligible for pen
sion or compensation benefits af-
ter the outbreak of World War ii.
A new law-Public Law 195 OF
the 81st' Congress-authorizes ret
roactive awards to qualified recipi-
ents who we're unable to apply at
the time. or within previous time
limits, because of interment or
other preventive action by an en-
emy country.
Heretofore, If the dependents of
a veteran who died from service
connected causes filed a claim
within year, compensation pay
ments were made retroactive to
the date of the death, and other
wise the effective date was the
date of application.

5000 Cases Of Polio
Reported This Month
As Incidence Rises
by the Asseeiotsd Press

The number Of new cases Of
infantile paralysis took q sharp
upward turn last week. boosting
the Nations total Of victims for
the month to more than 5000.
It brought the total for the
year to 1880. compared with
only $3.50 cases reported by the
National Office Of Vital Statistics
through August 13 of 194s. a near
record year. Last years 27,680
total was exceeded only by the
10000 in the 1916 record year.
In an Associated, Press survey,
North Dakota reported the disease
at an epidemic stage last week and
said the State urgently needed
more nurses.
A few more heavily populated
States, including Pennsylvania,
Illinois and Wisconsin, do not
expect to reach the peak of new
cases until next month, while four
States perhaps five - already
have more than 1000.
Decline In Southern States.
Some Southern States, where
onset of the disease usually starts
earlier. have had a gradual de-
cline, while Maine and Minnesota
held about steady. and Arizona
showed an increase.
Nevada, with only 18 cases this
year, again is having light sea-
son, but health officials there re-
minded that most of the States
% cases last year occurred dur
ing the fall and winter months.
The sharp rise In new victims
added 5000 to the August total
during the second nine-day period
of the month. There were 3,100
new cases in the first nine days. |
August normally is the worst
month of the year.
The survey showed that some |
large cities, notably Boston and
New York, have been hard hit,
while Philadelphia and Chicago
were more fortunate than areas
in other parts of Pennsylvania
and Illinois. Generally smaller
communities and rural areas ap-
peared to be faring best.
New York Has Most Cases.
New York went into top place
among the list of States in the
latest survey. 1t reported 1887
cases to pass Texas which had
1,448. Illinois is third with 1,120.
and California fourth with LOGS.
Michigan was just under the 1000
mark on August 18 with 997 cases.
A death rate Of 10 per cent or
higher was reported in only three
states-Indiana, Kentucky and
Maryland.
The American Medical Associa-
ton said that for the Nation as
q whole, about so per cent OF
those stricken can be expected to
recover entirely and without any
permanent crippling. About IS
per cent will be severely crippled,
and about IS per cent mildly
crippled. The death rate is -ex-
pected to be between 5 and 10
per cent.
