Former Prisoners
10 Get Full Benefits

The War Claims Commission
moved yesterday to remove a mis-
understanding it says has resulted
in failure of former prisoners of
war to get full payments for which
they are eligible.
Some former servicemen who
were held in enemy prison camps
during the war apparently believe
they are entitled only to 81 a day
in accordance with a 1948 Con-
|greSsional enactment. An amend
ment passed by the 82d Congress
provides a benefit of $3.50 a day
additional for any American pri-
soner of war Of World War II who
was subjected to forced labor or
inhumane treatment.
The commission explained that
widows. dependent husbands, chill
dren and parents, in the order
named, are eligible for such ad-
ditional bnefit payments Of de-
ceased former prisoners Of war.
Some former prisoners Of war.
the commission said, are destroy
ing recent claim forms in the mis-
taken belief that they are not
entitled to the $3.50 a day bene-
|flt because they already have re-
|ceived the 81 a day award on the
basis of insufficient food while
held captive.

Accord Reached
On Dog Tags for
Civilian Defense
Contract to Be Signed
Tuesday for 50-Cent
Identification Plates

A contract for Civil Defense
dogtags for citizens was agreed on
yesterday and will be signed Tues
day. Joseph A. Kaufman an
nounced yesterday.
Mr.. Kaufman. chairman of the
District Civil Defense tag COM
mittee which reached terms with
the United Equipment Co., said
the arrangement is substantially
the same as the one the company
proposed earlier.
The company will be paid on a
sliding scale. It will get 48.8 cents
q tag for the first 10000, 38.8 cents
for each Of the next 5000. and
then the price will drop a cent or
so a tag with each successive
/ .000-tag order until the metal
Identification plates get down to
29.9 cents each.
The public, however, will pay a
fiat SO cents a tag.
Statistics to be Recorded.
Mr.. Kaufman said the firm will
furnish the tag, a chain to wear
it on, and a cardful of vital sta
tistics about each purchaser. The
company will mail the tags to
purchasers.
He said United Equipment, of
813 Fourteenth street NV, will
fill out the cards and send them
to the Civil Defense people who'll
distribute the information under
an elaborate filing system.
Mr.. Kaufman said the tag and
its accompanying chain could be
purchased for SIS cents. What
jacks up the price is the work
required to emboss the metal, and
of all-the work the COM
pany will do in filling out infor-
nation forms about purchasers,
ne said.
Will File Information.
Whatever sums Civil Defense
realizes from the sales, he said,
will be used for filing the vital
statistics so the cards can be
found quickly in case the area
ever suffers a major disaster.
He said Civil Defense hopes to
sell a minimum of $4,000 tags a
month, once the program gets
rolling.
The contract will be effective
Wednesday. The sales campaign
will be launched during National
Fire Prevention Week, which be-
gins a week from today. Applica-
tions for the tags will be avail
able at every firehouse. Later,
there1l be stacks of them in
schools, Government buildings
and other places.

Federal Office
Space Needs
|Leve|ing Off
Supply and Demand
Satisfactory to House
2l1,700 Employees

Governments demands for Of
fees in the Washington area and
the space available have about
reached a balance.
The Public Buildings Service is
heaving a sigh of relief-the first
it has enjoyed since the beginning
Of the Korean war.
The service said yesterday 1t is
now able to satisfy all demands
for space and no big demands
are in sight. It is trying to get
as many Government workers as
possible into Government-owned
buildings to lessen the use Of
leased space.
More Improvement Sought.
The chief reason for the present
favorable space situation is the
cuts dictated by Congress in the
emergency control organizations,
chiefly the National Production
Authority and the Office of Price
Sterilization.
General Services Administrator
Jess Larson issued an order last
week designed to maintain the
favorable situation and even to
improve it. He ruled that no
additional space shall be assigned
an agency if it is using space for
the storage of records not needed
currently. He said arrangements
Should be made for the transfer
of such records to Federal Records
ICenters.
/ 81 Buildings Leased.
The Public Buildings Service
has assigned 33.5 million square
feet Of space in this area to
agencies having a total Of 211, 700
employes. There are 155 Govern
ment-owned buildings with 30.2
million square feet of space pro-
1 viding for 195,900 workers.
Leased buildings are 81 in num-
ber. They provide 3,3 million
square feet of space and house
$500 workers.
The Defense Department, the
largest of all, occupies space in
$50 buildings. It has more than
10000 persons occupying 8.3 mil-
lion square feet of space.

Shift Proposed
In D. {. School
Administration
Mrs. Phillips to Urge
Board to Employ
Business Manager
By jones G. Deone

A Board OF Education member
plans to propose hiring a business
manager for Washington's public
schools.
Mrs. Frank S. Phillips, the mem
ber, said last night the new official
would be independent of the su-
perintendent. He would take over
some of the responsibilities now
held by Supt. Hobart M. Corning,
she said.
One Of his duties, she added,
would be school construction plan
ming.
Mrs. Phillips is chairman of the
boards Buildings and Grounds
Committee. She has been critical
recently Of new school construc-
ton.
Sharpe IndOrses Proposal.
The schools now have an assist
ant superintendent in charge of
business administration, but his
duties are much narrower than
those proposed by Mrs. Phillips,
and he is subordinate to DR.. Cor
ming. There is also an assistant
superintendent in charge Of build
ings and grounds.
Board President c. Melvin
Sharpe last night indorsed Mrs.
Phillips idea. He said the schools
should have a professional busi-
ness administrator and repredicted
the proposal eventually will be
adopted. Other members were
noncommittal, however. DR.. Cor
ming could not be reached.
Mrs. Phillips said she hasn't vet
completely formulated her plan.
But she said the proposed job
should include budgeting and
cafeteria management, as well as
building construction.
Business Man Needed.
She said she feels the superin-
tendent now has too much to do.
The schools also need an expert
enced business man to handle busi-
ness matters, she asserted.
'I think DR.. Corning is fine
academically," the board member
said. But I think there ought to-
be somebody with more of q busi-
ness head"
Mrs. Phillips has questioned re-
Gently whether school officials
have wasted money in land pur-
chases and new construction. One
of the new officials main jobs
would be- to see to economy in
building plans, she said.
Policy up to Board.
She expressed confidence the
new officer and the superintend-
ent would be able to work to-
gether. In case Of disagreement,
it would be the boards job to|
make a decision, she said. The
board, she pointed out, decides
policy anyway.
A new centralized cafeteria
management now is being set I'D.
This would come under the
business manager according to
the proposal.
Mrs. Phillips said her proposal
is an extension of one made by
Adelbert w. Lee, former board
member, about a year ago. The
board did not discuss the idea at
that time.
Mrs. Phillips also disclosed last
night that she will call q special
meeting Of the buildings and
grounds committee soon to con-
slider plans for a new junior high
school. Approval Of the plans was
held up recently at her reurlest.
