0Ids Warns Of FaiIinq
u. ). Wafer Resources

A grim picture of failing water
resources in the United States was
given last night by Leland Olds,
former chairman of the Federal
Power Commission and now on
President Truman's Water Policy
Commission.
In an address to the Washing
ton Society of Engineers at the
Cosmos Club, Mr.. Olds stressed
that water resources are essential
to the continued existence of the
Nation.
He pointed out that an increase
in population Is taxing Americas s
great river basins and unless con-
servation measures are taken, the
wster resources of this country
will continue to move down hill
unless we do something about it."
Mr.. Olds said that if the trend
continues, the United States will
need the equal of 100 million addi-
tional acres of land before Is
years have passed. %

Douglas and Morse
Stress Need Of Unity

The Nation needs more politi-
cal unity and fewer policy state
ments by politicians who have not
studied military facts" in the
opinion of Senators Douglas,
Democrat. of Illinois. and Morse,
Republican. of Oregon.
Both Senators. speaking last
night at the Conference of Amer
lean Lecturers sponsored by the
International Platform Associa-
ton at the Mayflower Hotel.
urged a speed-up in mobilization.
Senator Douglas said he would
not care too much if Republican
occupied the White House so
long as political unity could be
assured. He noted that Presi-
dent Truman has appointed many
Republicans to important execu-
tive positions.
Senator Morse proposed that
the United States withdraw its
troops from Korea but he criti-
cized former President Hoover's
suggestion about keeping out of
Europe. The Senator said he in
tended to follow the advice Of
American military strategists in
stead Of statements by "pcliti-
clans" who have not studied the
military situation.

day in a background information

Widespread Irregularities
Reported in GI Education

that OF person, unnamed, own
ing four or five schools in different
parts of the country and drawing
$4,000 annual salary from each.
One Firm Singled Out.
The c. E. Marshall Co., Chicago
supplier Of watch and clock max
ing equipment, was the only firm
singled out for criticism by name
in the report. The committee said
the firm "has conspired with and
enc ncouraged veterans training
schools in various States to engage
in practices which were not in the
best interests of the Government" ="
The report said the firm zap
parently" encouraged schools to
buy their watch and clock max
ing tolls at a substantial discount
through dummy corporations" but
then to charge full marked-up re-
tail prices to the VA.
Conceding that the VA had
trouble finding qualified people to
administer the program. the COM
mittee said also that training
schools were swamped when vet
erans started taking advantage of
their Government-paid schooling
after the war.
The report added:
"The field of education and
training for the veteran was
thrown wide open for any individ-
uals who could establish the SEM
blalice of a school and take in
veterans.
Lucrative Venture"
I'm the early days it was a lu-
crative venture. Schools sprang
up overnight offering any course
imaginable for the purpose of Sc
curing the CT dollar. Veterans
responded in great numbers to
these fy-by- night ventures as it
was an easy task for them to pur-
sue to establish eligibility for the
generous subsistence payments
made available to them under the
law"
Some of the schools, the COM
mittee said, advertised that stu
dents would get valuable tool kits
or be able to make things of value
in their classes such as suit of
clothes in tailoring course.
The committee intimated this
was done to encourage veterans to
think they could go out and sell
these things for their own per
sonal gain"
In report to Congress last year
the VA cited more than 200 cases
of what it called ABUSES" of the
vast program. President Truman
then asked Congress to tighten up
the law, which he said some vet
Grams were using as an unemploy-
ment compensation program. Con-
gress complied and then Mr.
league got permission to conduct
his investigation.

ing msde on Capitol Hill that we
are in war which Congress has
not declared.
Promotion of Peace His Aim.
Flatly, then, the President said
that we are not in a war, but are
simply carrying out our obliga-
tions to the United Nations in the
Far East.
A questioner asked if it was
the intent to ask the United
Nations for permission to bomb
China. Mr.. Truman responded
that that was not under con-
sideration. Such action, he con-
tinued, might involve the question
that Mrs. Craig had been talking
about-the declaration of war.
Then, the President went on
to say that he sincerely hopes that
We don't have to declare war,
stressing that the promotion of
peace had been his aim ever since
he became President.
Pin-pointing the issue further
a reporter said it was correct to
assume. then, that China would
not be bombed without U. N. au-
thority. The President said that
was correct.
Still Hopeful Of Negotiation.
He is still hopeful that all the
troubles of the world can be set
tied by negotiation, Mr.. Truman
said.
The President expressed ap-
proval Of the conference of Big
Four ministers to discuss the
problems common to the United
States, Great Britain, France and
Russia, and, as he said, the causes
of tension between Russian and
the free world.
He re-emphasized, however
that he was giving no thought to
a possible meeting of chiefs OF
state of the four big powers.
Asked If he had anything to
say about Gen. Eisenhower going
to Europe to head up the North
Atlantic defense force, the Presi-
dent said he expects to see Gen.
Eisenhower here Saturday, and
that he will have something to
say then.
Asked if there was any thought
being given to including Spanish
forces in this Western European
defense setup, he said it was not
being considered by him.

way would be found to prevent
actual Shipment of the steel rails.
A French Embassy official here
assailed his Governments attitude
as "topsy-turvy policy that does
not make sense" He pointed out
that the steel rails presumably
were wanted to rebuild railroads
leading into Indo-China, where
the Chinese Communists are
helping Communist rebels fight
the French and loyal Indo-
Chinese.
This official compared shipment
OF steel rails to Communist China
in these circumstances to ship
ment of American oil to Japan in
the months before Pearl Harbor.
American officials said their in
formation is that the French steel
industry has not yet started pro-
duction on the Chinese Commu-
mist orders and is reluctant to do
so. hoping that the French gov
ernment will order the contracts
Cancelled.
II the French government con-
tinues to refuse to take such ac-
ton, these officials said, there still
are several ways in which actual
shipments may be prevented. They
said the French steel industry
several companies are reported in
volved-may find itself so busy
with other orders that it cannot
produce the rails for China. or
that shortage of ships may pre-
vent actual filling of the orders
even If the rails are produced.
1t was emphasized here that the
question of canceling the Chinese
contracts is legal problem for
the French government to settle.
While reluctant to fill the orders
under present circumstances, the
French steel industry is said to
want government decision can
ceiling them in order to protect
the industry against legal claims
for failure to fulfill contracts.
American representatives in
Paris have urged the French gov
ernment to order cancellation of
the contracts, but the latest word
from the French governmental
late December-was that legal
complications prevented it from
taking such action. 1t was made
plain to the French that the
United States does not agree with
this position.
The contracts involved were
made during the summer Of 1850,
officials here said. In October,
the French government ordered
the French steel industry not to
accept any further orders. The
question of cancellation of the
contracts outstanding at that time
has been under discussion since
then.

porting his understanding tnat the

sion; Edward T. Brown, foreman
of the division of sanitation; Jesse
j. Kimball, chief building inspec-
tor; Oscar A. Estep, assistant

Pilkerton, District auditor.
Mr.. Fowler reported his Office
had gone into the matter with
various operating officials and the
existing policy was satisfactory
except for the policy of authoriz-
ing certain employees to keep the
cars at home overnight.
Suggests 3 Categories.
The budget officer said a cur
rent survey indicated very few of
the employees used the cars at
night often enough to justify
keeping them overnight on an an
rua] basis.
MIR, Fowler recommended that
in lieu of the present 24-hour as
signment of cars, three categories
OF use be set up. These are:
l. Employees occasionally re-
quired to perform duties after
working hours will be authorized
to keep District car at home only
on nights when an actual duty is
at hand. In this category are
Traff1ce Director George E.
Keneipp, Deputy Director Wallace
L. Braun. Traffic Engineer John H.
Milton, Supt. of Recreation Milo
Christensen and Charles M.
Dunn, superintendent of street
lighting.
2. Emergency men subject to
frequent calls after working hours,
whose services may be needed i'm
mediately to prevent loss of life,
injury to persons, damage to prop
Ierty or serious interruption of vital
service and who must carry equip
ment or must personally collect
an emergency. crew, will be au-
thorized to keep a city-owned car
at home. This includes commune
cation division repairmen, the in
spector of complaints for the
sewer division and the foreman of
the division of sanitation.
Travel Allowance.
3. Emergency men subject to
frequent call after working hours
but not covered in category 2 will
be allowed 7 cents a mile to travel
in privately owned cars. This
would include Herbert A. Friede,
superintendent of communica-
tions; George E. Hess, inspector
of transportation for the sewer
division, and others.
Mr.. Stofberg said in his ques-
tionnaire for the survey that he no
longer used a city-owned car after
regular office hours. Others ques-
toned said the new policy would
force revision of their working
schedules.
The District has 1876 cars which
operate at a cost of $0.0418 a mile.
Mr.. Fowler termed this cost
reasonable.

The controversy over DR.. Corn
ing has split the Education Board
into two factions.
Mr.. Lee has been the leading
critic of DR.. Corning and his staff,
and in the past year has made
one charge after another of poor
handling of problems. DR.. James
A. Cannon, whom Mr.. Lee de-

leader of the faction which sup

The quarrel between Mr.. Lee
