• THE VETERANS’ ADMINISTRATION thinks an incipient scan-
dal which would have boiled over into a congressional investigation
has been stifled both by VA Chief Gen. Omar N. Bradley and some
timely legislation.
Bradley gave undercurrent reports front nage prominence when
he revealed that all was not well In the veterans’ job-training
program.
He nipped the scandal before any VA detractors could get started,
and even recommended that something be done before the training
program bogged down too deeply.
VA believes that Congress, in approving two measures, will help
to remedy the situation. VA would be permitted to compensate state
and local agencies for their expenses under the program.
In addition, Congress set up ceilings of $175 a month for single
men and $200 for married men for the job-training period. This
would weed out such cases as a Company president’s son who is
“training” to succeed his father.

Of Foreign t -irchase Missions |
Special to Central Press
• WASHINGTON—Look for further United States moves to hasten
the removal of the war-time foreign purchasing missions which still
are operating.
The surface reason given is that the space is needed for other
purposes, with housing shortages cropping up in all centers where
the missions are located, and the recognized United States policy
of returning trade to private channels as rapidly as possible.
The first contention certainly is valid in Washington, where both
British and Russians have used valuable down-
town apartment houses for war-time offices.
It is also true of many office buildings, for still-
bulging Washington is so pressed for office space
that some law firms are buying ancient mansions
and restoring them for use as offices.
Beyond all this, the state department is anxious
not to have too many foreign agents roaming at
large through the country and the task of main-
taining close watch on their operations would
place too heavy a load on government agents.
Not all countries are suspected of using com-
mercial agents for intelligence purposes, but to
' put pressure on those who are suspected probably
would be protested as discrimination.
Incidentally. It is now understood that Earl
Browder, former United States Communist leader, will not have to
register with the department of justice as the agent of a foreign
principal. Browder's contract to promote the sale of Russian litera-
ture in the United States is regarded as a strictly commercial
transaction.

TOKYO, August 19 (/P)—There
is a nip and tuck race underway
off the coast of Japan between
an Army tug towing a disabled '
Liberty ship and a swiftly ap-
proaching typhoon.
The Liberty ship Samuel Sea-
bury sent a distress call after it
had snapped off its propeller at
the mouth of the Inland Sea, and
the Army tug reached it yester-
day after battling heavy seas.
Meanwhile the Japanese Is-
lands are bracing to meet the ex-
pected one hundred mile-an-hour
winds of the typhoon, which
should strike the coast at about
nine o’clock tomorrow morning.

I’ve heard people who hove natty-line telephones. (1
have one, too) complain about others on their line—say
they talk too much, or listen in, or interrupt.
But they don’t say that about me. No, sir! I figure it
you want other folks to do right by you, you’ve got to
do rik'ht by them. So I watch my telephoning. “Even
Step i” is my motto. Keep the calls short and let the
other folks get in their share of talk.
It works, too! We never have any trouble
on our party line.
How 'about the increase in replacement
value since you last arranged your insurance?

• WEST COAST SHIPPING INTERESTS are determined to see
to It that the government-operated American Presi-
dent Lines does not win a lion’s share of Pacific
trade routes.
The,Maritime commission is being besieged with
representations from shipping firms and civic groups,
warning that if American President is given too
much of a break the action will be tantamount to hoisting a battle
pennant.
Ten companies have applied for extension of their Pacific routes
and virtually all are potential competitors of American President.
