Stupid Disregard
Of Air Attack* Is
Seen By General
CA(MP POLK, La., Aug. 22—
Lieut. Gen. Walter Kreuger, com-
manding general of the third army
in a blistering criticism of handl-
ing troops thus far in maneuvers
here, today said there had been a
stupid disregard of the dangers of
air attacks.
He said troop convoys so bauly
had clogged roads laying his 250,-
000 men open to annihilating en-
emy air attacks in simulated bat-
tle, that his whole army might have
been destroyed had this been ac-
tual war with real ammunition.

critique of corps, divisional, regi-
mental and company officers after
the first three-day phase of the

A tentative solution of the prob-
lem of constructing an access road
to the air corps basic flying school
has been tentatively agreed on by
the county commissioners court
who now propose a survey of a
road running directly cast from
the building site, but to halt con-
struction at the Loy park road for
the present, instead of continuing
eastward to highway 75.

were chosen for charm, poise and
ability to show what they can do
as filling station attendants. Start-

the cuties arc doing such less ex-
acting chores as wiping wind-
shields, filling radiators, selling
gas and oils and inflating tires.

Texas May Set
Up Its Own Job
Running Service
AUSTIN, Tex., Aug. 22—As an
outgrowth of a feud over rules be-
tween the Texas Unemployment
Compensation Commission and
Washington authorities the Legis-
j lature mav be asked to provide for
| a strictly-Texas job-hunting ser-
vice, shifting the cost from em-
ployer to employee. Chairman Di*
I rector Claude A. Williams of the
I commission said today.
Congress recently amended the
federal social security laws to al-
low the federal social security
board to cut off funds for the state
agencies if they refused to make
their regulations conform to this
issued in Washington.
Williams, who inisists that the
state should be allowed to make its
rule, says that if the federal board
ever does cut off its grants—which
comes from tax money paid by
Texas employers anyhow — he
wants the commission to be able to
still set up a state employment
agency.
Williams said he would ask Gov.
Coke Stevenson to include this in
the subjects for a special session.
If this is refused, he hopes to sub-
mit it to the next regular session.
