Recently, six determined young vomen had the Chief of Staff al most wanting to retreat when they d at his office to demand the discharge of Army fathers. The delegation was led by Mrs. James G, Muelle Pittsburgh, Pa, wh o father of two [ in Ialy halls embarrassing ! ed So, later, F.senhmwm graciously in- v '\d a delegation of mothers to ull at the Peniegon Building, at hich time Mrs, Mueller set forth x points of the program of the “Bring Home Daddy Club,” includ- the use of family allotments' r the establishment of overseas' 'his years in Washington hools for single volunteers “The present &llotments for ice wives and children aren't nough to sunport us w, Gen- ral” she said charge 1 the fat e th llotment f attracting Ao e £or- y not d ) yeu can mol the ust what are the family irtmen‘s for enlisted men?” yuired Eiserhower. A nuesticn like this coming from the Chief of Staff of the Army caused his callers to stare at cach other.

Without waiting for an dnswer, she report- ed several other rein re- tention of fathe service constituted a hardship, some of them supported by sworn affida- vits. “I'm not trying to criticize the Red Cross,” she explained, “but hardships aren’t being handled properly.” Eisenhower peced the fleor for several niinutes, prcmised a ther- ! thers al-| in- | military men, ' cigh investigation and a report to ¥ the ladies. Regarding discharges, told them the Army plans to charge about 500,000 enlisted fa- by July 1. Others, he said, will have to remain until replace- ments are trained. “I will be just as happy as you are to get these fathers home,” he declared, “but at the same time we must maintain our occupation forces in Germany and elsewhere. S0 we can’t let mgn out until we et somebedy to replace them.” His callers pointed out that too many able-bodied single men are being deferred by local draft boards. “I'd advise you to put some pres- sure on the draft boards,” sug- ested Eisenhower, closing the in- terview As his visitors left, they thouzht they detected a sigh of relief as from one who has just been through a session with his dentist. a HARRY HOPKINS Historians will never agree as to whether ¥ Hopkins was a good or bad influence on the man he | worshipped ; t as the colum: never could on .this pr { vhile both we: But historians never did the la a more devoted friend.
