VETERANS IMMUNE IF GIVING EVIDENCE Senatz Committee Rules Against Punishing Ex-Sol- diers for Testifying. Immunity from disciplinary meas- ures for former service men who ap- pear before the ‘Senate special com- mttee investigating government ac- tivities relating to them will be pro- vided by the investigators. The com- mittee decided upon this action after hearing the circumstances of 2 “strike' of students at the training center at Pascagoula, Miss., the com- mittee voting to request 1e reinstate- “ment of two students who had been dismissed and four who had been transferred because of their protest of insanitary and other unsatisfactory conditions_alleged to exist there. Senator Walsh, democrat, Massachu- setts, charged that the board of vo- cational education was attempting to “intimidate” students by dismissing those who make complaint. Senator Sutherland of West Virginia, repub- lican, chairman of the committee, ex- pressed disapproval of the alleged disciplinary measures of the board, and = Senator Pomerene, democrat Chinese Customs — % In China, great and happy land, the doctor’s only in de- mand when folks are feeling fine; he’s paid to keep his pa- tients hale; if they fall sick he draws no kale, and must take in his sign. And so we see him on the jump, to cure the measle or the mump, or other fell disease; it doesn’t pay to have men sick, so he prescribes his powdered brick, his pills and healing teas. And if the patient cashes in, the heirs kick up a frightful din that indicates their ire; they camp vpon the doctor’s trail, and ride that learned man on a rail, and set his house afire. And in our ‘and, where culture reigns, when we fall sick, with pea green pains, we call the nearest doc; when we are well we care no whoop for all the potions in his coop, for all the pills in stock. The doctor knows we have a wad, a bundle opulent and broad, he knows we'll pay his Lills; and he would more than £ <* | Ohio, criticised acts of the board. which, he said, were “like executing & man and trying him afterward.” Report of Charges. The decision of the committee was hed after telegrams and letters had been presented to show that dis- ciplinary measures had been taken before a committee cons ng of H. M. Evans, public health vice, and E. H. Hale, a: tant superintendent of co-operation, had submitted a re- port of their investigation of the charges made by the students. Director Uel. W. Lamkin of the !ed-l eral board of vocational education ln—l formed the committee that the prob- lems presented at the training center schools, where the students were mostly tubercular, were greater than at colleges of corresponding size, due in part to restricted diet prescribed by physicians, rest requirements and housing conditions. The school at Pascagoula occupies a portion of the: . plant of the International Shipping * Company, which, Mr. Lamkin asserted, *charges students reasonable rent. Lack of Co-Operation Blamed. Failure of the government depart- ments to co-operate was attributed by Mr. Evans as a factor in the delay of the bureau of vocational education to equip the plant. He asserted that for more than a year he had been try- ing without success to obtain from the War Department surplus equip- ment needed at the school. He said requests addressed to the Secretary of the Treasury also had failed to bring results, and that after much delay supplies had to be purchased in the open market. Unless Congress grants relief, Mr. Evans stated, the board must pur chase between two and three millio dollars’ worth of equipment which the War Department can furnish from its surplus, if authorized to do so. He admitted that some of the charges made by the students were correct. but asserted that the dissatisfaction among certain students could be at- tributed to the activities of E. L. Luedtke, educational director at the school, to prevent bringing whisky upon the reservation. —_— The Barry Farm Oltizens’ Associa- tion will meet Friday at 8:15 p.m., in the Hoffman assembly rooms, Stan- ton and Elvans roads. southeast.

Col. Guy D.
