Amvefs Demand Lee's Removal WASHINGTON (U.B The American Veterans of World War II threatened Thursday to with draw their support of universal military training legislation unless a "complete and impartial" in vestigation is made of charges against Lt. Gen. John C. H. Lee, U. S. Mediterranean commander. Ray Sawyer, Amvets national commander, declared his organiz ation believes in preparedness and UMT but said "we cannot . . .sup port any law which would tend to make thousands of young men into ilunkies and errand boys for gen erals and other rank-happy individuals." Scripps-Howard Columnist Rob ert C. Ruark charged in dispatches from Italy that enlisted men un der Lee's command suffer indig nities and mistreatment while of ficers live royally. Sawyer demanded that Lee be "immediately recalled to the Unit ed States pending an impartial investigation . . . lest this become a case of Army generals white washing Army generals." He said the Amvets have "im plicit faith" in Maj. Gen. Ira T. Wyche, Army inspector general now in Italy to Investigate the charges against Lee. But, he added, "by the time he arrives on the scene the situation can easily have been changed." CAMTAl, lllflll AND IflflVIS OVII 11,110 OH 111 as.
