Magnuson Hits
VA Influence
WASHINGTON -VP) Senator
Magnuson (D-Wash) has urged a
Senate committee to deny the
Veterans Administration power to
fix tuition charges of schools tak
ing part in the veterans training
program.
Magnuson's statement was pre
sented a Senate Public Welfare
Subcommittee by his administra
tive assistant.
"An elaborate formula" set up
by the VA for the schools allows
them "no selling expense and lim
its advertising expenditures, ad
ministrative expenses and sal
aries," Magnuson said.
He said more than 50 schools In
his state have complained "of the
practices of the administration in
fixing tuition fees." ' Since 1947,
Magnuson said, the VA has fol
lowed practices which "have
brought it into an attempt to con
trol the tuition rates of all schools
despite the specific intent of Con
gress that no federal agency
should exercise this kind o con
trol." Magnuson said that undoubted
ly some schools are charging
higher tuition than justified but
that the majority of them are-i
doing a good job."

News Reporter
Was Right
WASHINGTON W Senator
McCarthy (R-Wis) is going to
consult a newsman whenever he
feels bad in the future.
Plagued with a heavy cold, the
Wisconsin senator was talking
with Jack Bell of the Associated
Press. Bell remarked on Mc
Carthy's harseness and said:
"Senator, I think you've got
virus pneumonia."
Startled, McCarthy decided to
visit Bethesda, Md., Naval Hos
pital for a checkup.
Two hours later he telephoned
Bell from his hospital bed.
"You were right," he said, "It's
virus pneumonia."
Treated speedily with a new
drug, McCarthy expects to be out
long enough to vote on Senate
ratification of the North Atlantic
security treaty. After that, he
will go back to bed.
About 15 per cent of all steel
production in the United States Is
used by the automotive industry.
The first steel rail was rolled of
American steel in 1865.
