STUDY OF DEFENSE

Truman Resolution, Carrying Administration Support,

May Bring Shakeup of National Commission; Production of Planes Speeding Up.

By THOMAS L. STOKES y Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.—The way is open today for a Senatorial investigation of the whole defense program, an investigation which may bring in its wake a shakeup of the National Defense Advisory Commission. The avenue is a broad resolution introduced by Senator Harry Truman (D. Mo.) which would set up a special

EXPOSURE CAUSES DEATH LOGANSPORT, Ind. Feb. 14 (U. P.).—Jules Schmidt, 80-year-old retired glass blower of Converse, who was found dead in a ditch near his hsme, died of exposure following a heart attack, Coroner E. E. Schrock said today.

quiry. Simultaneously, members of Com gress were advised privately that production of D ilitney airplanes is being speeded up to a degree where the goal of 2000 a month set for June may be reached earlier. . In January 1054 military planes, including trainers, were turned out, compared W Stokes 799 in Lyin ber. This is double last June’s output. Truman Charges Favoritism William S. Knudsen, generalissimo of defense production, recently has begun to direct his attention more closely to specific problems of production, with numerous visits to airplane factories, and will devote much of his time henceforth to personal inspections. The airplane program, as well as all other phases of the defense drive, would be scrutinized in the projected Senate inquiry. The Truman resolution, it is learned, has Administration backing, and consequently is expected to get right of way. Senator Truman recently outlined the immediate objective of his investigation in a Senate speech charging favoritism by some businessmen connected with the defense commission in assigning contracts for materials. It is understood he has accumulated much evidence. Study May Cover Wide Range

Those acquainted with the purposes of the inquiry say it may well result in some reorganization of defense commission persennel, with the New Deal in tighter control of its functions. The investigation, as outlined by the Senator, would cover a wide range. The resolution would provide authority to inquire into the types

Quick, 1301 Polk St., for 40 years a resident of Indianapolis, declares: “I would go to the table and my appetite would fail completely. I had: to force down the little food I

"ate and then I would be so bloated

with gas I would have to loosen my belt. I lost weight and strength, and couldn't sleep good at night. Oonstipation was so stubborn I had to take harsh purgatives regularly, Y had terrible sick headaches, and I felt so weak and run down it seemed like life was hardly worth

living.
