Senate Party Unity
Speeds Up Vote on
Depende Pay Bill
BY the Assoeioted Press

Senate Democrats and Repub-'
licans worked in unison today in
tent on early passage of a bill
providing monthly cash allow
ances for dependents of all en-
listed men in the armed services.
The minimum payment would
be $85 for one dependent-wife,
child or dependent parent; $107.5O
for twU dependents; and Sis for
three or more.
The enlisted men in the low
est three grades would put in $40
monthly toward these totals from
their pay. The Government would
put up the rest.
Higher Grades Get More.
Families of men in upper grades,
such as corporals and sergeahts,
would get more, and the men
would contribute more from their
pay. = So
The payments rise to $147.50
monthly for one and two depend
entS in the highest grades and
$155 monthly FOR three or more
dependents. In these grades the
non-commissioned officers would
contribute $50 monthly from their
pay.
The bill was approved unani-
mously yesterday by the Senate
Armed Services Committee and
Chairman Tydings urged passage
at "the earliest possible moment"
No substantial opposition was
sighted.
The Governments share of pay
ments to dependents would be
retroactive to July /. but the en-
listed men would not be required
to make allotments from their
pay over past periods.
Meanwhile, the House Armed
Services Committee planned to
consider a bill providing more
liberal dependency allowances
than are embodied in the Senate
bill.
Hospital Care an Issue.
The House measure at present
provides also for hospital care of
dependents, but Chairman Vinson
Of the House Armed Services Com
mittee said this provision might
be stricken and considered III a
separate bill.
Such action was urged yester-
day by the American Medical
Association, which assailed as
Impractical and harmful to the
defense effort" the idea Of open
ing military hospitals for service
peoples dependents.
The ANA suggested, instead.
that best hospital care could be
had through local, private medical
facilities.
AS approved by subcommittee,
the House bill would direct the
Secretary Of Defense where prac-
ticable" to reactivate military
hospitals and dispensaries to care
for dependents.
DR.. Walter P. Martin Of Nor
folk. Va. speaking for ANA, told
a House Armed Services subcom-
mittee yesterday, this plan would
CD aid only those dependents
near military hospitals; ca i'm
pair medical care for others by
drawing doctors and nurses out
of communities to staff military
hospitals; 90 hinder medical care
for military personnel, and "a
bring many people into hospitals
who do not actually need hospital
treatment.

frame, walked, reached third on
two passed balls and scored on
Left Fielder Gus Fortuna's single.
The latter, an excellent baserun-
ner, caught the Bill infield nap
ping and raced to third on broth

the next play when Catcher Red
Kenny grounded to third.
The Clothiers lost a scoring op-
portunity in the top half of the
third on a combination of good
fielding and poor base-running.
Telisman led off with a sharp
single to center and moved to
second when Third Baseman Bill
Corbett took Archie Frames pop
bunt and then threw wildly to

Bilek then grounded to Corbett
and Telisman raced to third on
the play. Second Baseman Bob Os-
olin then sent a slow roller down
the third base line which looked
like it might roll foul. Telisman,
however, failed to take advantage
of the opportunity to score until
it was too late. When the Bill
hurler finally set sail for the
plate, Corbett hoped on the ball
and, while off balance, tossed to
Catcher Kenny who tagged the
sliding Telisman for the third out.

No one was even mildly sur

age championship of the East

feating Bills Clothes, 20, at
Shaw Field.
1t was the twelfth straight
league victory for the powerful
Arlington nine which has COM
pletely dominated the local loop
in every department of play.
However, their latest triumph
was definitely their toughest as
signment of the season and could
be considered a moral victory"
for Bills who matched the per-
centage champs in everything but
the essential run-scoring phase.
Tom Telisman, who was the
leagues leading pitcher last
season, held Benny's hitless for
the first three innings as he re-
tired the first nine batters to face

Znidarsic leading the way with
five singles and a home run. The
quartet of Fox Cafe hurlers, who
have been consistently wild all
season, issued total of nine bas-

pitches to make things easier for
the victors. The basepaths were

Cost Of Spruce Beetle War Tops
George Wushington's Budget

People who sigh for the good old
days Of Federal economy ought to
remember that Uncle Sam is
spending more this year on spruce
beetles than 1t cost George Wash
ington to run his whole admins
tration.
This was pointed out to Ma
tional Press Club members yes
terday by Budget Director Frank
c. Pace, jr.. who added he never
heard of a spruce beetle" until a
81 million item to help ex-
terminate the insect came up for
consideration.
give heard Of the little beetles, ~
volunteered Senator Millikin, Re-
publican, Of Colorado. The Sen
ator's State is one OF several whose
spruce forests are threatened by
the pests.
The young budget director said
ut seems funny we must spend
more to get rid of one insect than
the total cost Of Washington s
administration"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1950-03-10

"But George never had a bug
like that" cut in the Senator,
amid laughter.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Pace con-
tinued, the expenditure of 81 mil
lion should save many millions in
timber resources, and in jobs in
the lumber industry.
Only as far back as the horse
and buggy days. Mr.. Pace contin-
ued, it cost less to run the whole
Government for a year than it
does now to carry on the atomic
energy program-some $900,000,-
900.
He asked the newspapermen
not to apply half truths" or
adopt the historical approach to
Federal spending at a time when
heavy commitments must be car
ried from past wars and it be-
comes increasingly difficult to
estimate the cost of security
programs.
The present budget is an hon
est one, Mr.. Pace declared,
founded on sound business man
agement policy.
ut would have been politically
simple for President Truman to
have promised a balanced budget
this year or next" he said. But,
he added, the President could not
promise this, because the amount
Of the budget must be influenced
by circumstances beyond his con-
troll.
Despite his efforts to cut ex-
penses, Mr.. Pace said he realizes
it's about time the Post Office
bought some new delivery trucks
even though this would run into
a lot of money.
He laughingly declined to esti-
mate, howevep, how many 18-
year-old trucks could be replaced
by trading in the limousines of
Federal officials.
