Expert Doubts That Public Will Want Gadget After War.

By DAVID DIETZ Scripps-Howard Science Editor CLEVELAND, May 28—If the American public wants television attachments on its telephones in the days after world war II, it will get them. But the chances are they won't want them. Electrical research has now progressed to the point where such a development would be entirely possible, Dr. Harold 8S. Osborne, chief engineer of the American Telephone & Telegraph Co.., said. However, he doubts that there will be sufficient demand for such apparatus. Dr. Osborne does believe, however, that television broadcasting will arrive with the end of the war end he says that the company wil be ready to furnish the facilities for television networks in the same fashion that it now furnishes connecting lines to radio networks. Telephones to Benefit The telephone field will benefit greatly by the accumulation of war researches, Dr. Osborne said. What these are cannot be revealed at the present time, Morenver, it will take some time to apply wartinte devices and techniques to peacetime uses. “Someone has said that the ultimate telephone will be a device about the size of a watch which vou will carry in vour pocket.” Dr. Osborne says. “Tt will have no wires of outside connections. “Everyone in the world will have a number. To talk to a person anywhere in the world, you will merely dial his number. If you don’t get an answer in a few seconds, you will know that he has died.” The immediate problem after world war IT will be to catch up on telephone service. Extensions and other installations now denied customers because of wartime regtrictions will constitute the first order of business, he said.

A two-story receiving unit of 250 beds to include quarters for nurses, a modern surgery and examination rooms. A cottage for the isolation of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Two cottages for men, to house 160 men apiece with attendants’ quarters. An institutional type refrigerator for the department of women and a canning kitchen, pipe shop,

igarage and a vegetable storage cel-

lar at the farm colony. Dr. Bahr also said that the seven major towers and all minor towers on the women's building should be razed so that the building could be re-roofed.

LANDON BITTER OVER PRESS GAG

Food Parley Has Taken ‘Ominous’ Turn, Kansan Declares.

TOPEKA, Kas, May 26 (U. P). —An “extremely black cat” is emerging from the “tightly-tied bag of the alleged food conference at Hot Springs,” Alf M. Landon declared in a vigorous warning yesterday of the possible result of what he termed such “star chamber sessions.” “Almost suavely the talk, which the managers of that ‘star chamber’ session permit to seep out to the American public, has taken a far more ominous turn than even the most cantankerous critic of the project would have dared to imagine in the beginning,” the Kansas Republican asserted. “We were told yesterday officially that after the war vast population

world must be contemplated in the name of food production.

“Herding” Human Beings

“Human being are to be herded together and driven hither and yon at the sole behest of their ‘betters’ —their masters—like so many cattle.” Landon charged that “we do not even know what is being contemplated, let alone have a voice in the shaping of the future of ow children.” “The naked bayonets of the American people's army are being used to enforce this rule of secretiveness against the very American people whose sons form that army,” the one-time Kansas governor and 1936 Republican presidential candidate charged.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIES .

(fotutici

BY EARL RICHERT

REP. EARL TECKEMEYER (R. Indianapolis),

chairman of the

legislative committee investigating the state welfare department, reports that federal interference is the principal thing the committee has found to investigate during its three meetings to date. This charge of federal interference is a most frequent one. It is hurled during every session of the legislature and made by state

officials between sessions. Republican officials say it openly and the Democratic officials usually make their remarks off-the-record. But not a single complainer, as far as I know, has ever gotten to his feet and proposed the only method by which federal domination of the involved state departments can be stopped—that of the state assuming the entire cost of the program. This, of course, would necessitate an increase in state taxes and no politician wants that. Instead, to a man, they do everything possible to get state funds to match federal funds whenever the latter are available. Then they scream about the federal regulations which govern the disbursement of the federal funds and which require the state to conform to certain standards in order to receive the funds. Maybe the federal regulations are inane in many instances, I don’t know. But one thing is certain—as long as the state gets federal money, federal regulations will go along with it regardless of what party is in Washington. ” n a

Committee Works Hard

The welfare investigation committee, unlike most legislative groups created to study and investigate between sessions, is getting down to work. It is wading through a maze of state and federal regulations and has heard nine witnesses, most of them either present or former county welfare directors, so far.

But from the evidence obtained up to date, as reported by Mr. Teckemeyer, it seems likely that the group will have a hard time finding concrete recommendations for changes in the law to make to the '45 session of the legislature. As for federal domination, about the only recommendation

it seems possible to make is that |

the state start paying all welfare costs. And that is unlikely. Mr. Teckemeyer says the committee also is studying to find out whether too much stress is placed by the welfare department on the educational requirements of the welfare workers and® not enough on experience. The committee also is studying the radio programs and other publicity handouts of the welfare department to determine, as one

member put it, “whether we have | to educate people to come in and |

take our money.”

ZA

CHEVROLET

The legislature, of course, can take steps along these lines. But as for finding a way to change the law so that no one not entitled to assistance will ever get on the relief rolls (one of the most frequent complaints), that seems impossible. Probably the chief good that will be accomplished by the committee is that it will serve to put the welfare department on its

. toes.

A report signed by all seven members of the committee will bear great weight, But if the five Republican members on the Dem-ocratic-controlled welfare department put out a report to which the two Democratic members disagree, the whole affair will appear to the public as merely politics.
