Revision Looms On War Injuries Reimbursement Bill WASHINGTON. Juno 16 (IP) Objections by soma senators to what they termed "vaguo pro villous" of a bill to reimburse civilians for war Injuries ap peared likely today to provoke demands for revision of the measure. Senator Taft (R-Ohlo) said that he for one would seek to amend the proposul when it comes up Thursday to restrict payments for Injuries or dam ages to thoso Incurred In actual war conditions. The measure, Introduced by Senator Pepper (D-Fla.), would pay monthly benefits ranging from 510 for partial disability to $85 for total disability. Sur viving children and widows of civilians fatally Injured would be eligible for awards from $20 to $85 a month. Other sections would estab lish a system of social Insurance and publtc-ald for civilians within tho United States injured or permanently disabled by enemy action.

Lochner, Just returned from five months' Internment In Germany, will wrlto further stories about Gor man affairs from time to time). By LOUIS P. LOCHNER NEW YORK, June 17 (TP) (Wide World) Adolf Hitler's widely advertised super-highways loom as on Important fac tor In tho undoing of the Ger man war machine paradoxical though that may seem. The longer tho war lasts, the moro evident It Is becoming that Hitler bet on tho wrong horse In devoting tho nation's energies, so far os tho transportation problem Is concerned, chiefly to construction of super-highways rather than to Improvement or even upkeep of Germany s com plicated and far flung railway system. Hitler's military strategy may be summed up In tha word which has since 1039 become a commonplace In every language tho "blitzkrieg." Provided the blitz idea Work' cd, Hitler was right In honey. combing tho country with splen did highways, unexampled In Europe though second nature to every American. Millions of Jobless were given work at a time when the un employment problem was upper most In nazl minds, while simul taneously roods were construct ed on which German troops In the event of war could be moved to any frontier at greater speed than any other country could match. Hitler thus was deep In Po land before the Poles could even gasn. Ho poured his millions ln to Holland, Belgium and France, having assembled them at his own frontiers with lightning rapidity, while the roads of the others were cluttered with mob lllzlng forces. Reverse Side ' But when the war became one of years Instead of months, the reverse side of this picture was turned up: Fuel grew scarcer and scarcer, the nir force claim ed the best gasoline, lubricants became a mnior problem, wear and tear of cars proved - for greater than new production or the, seizure of cars In conquered countries. It suddenly became evident tliat tho much-mnllgned steam railway was a far more econom ical modo of transportation for 21 ot. lrr, long hauls than wera motor lorrlos and trucks. The farther the German army moved from its home base, the more essential the railway be came. This was admitted In an edi torial In tho Frankfurter Zeltung last March 8: "This war and especially em phatically the third winter of war have proved that the rail way has remained the decisive means of transport both for the necessities of the fighting troops and also for all modern civilian economy. "The reputation of the rail way temporarily had been dim med by several stars on the transportation firmament which had flared up later; today It shines all tha more brightly." Editorials in Germany, It must bo remembered, echo an authoritative voice. Hitler during his six and a half year regime before out break of the war had neglected the railways. Although by conservative es timate, 78 per cent of the mov ing load In Germany Is carried by railway with 20 per cent by Inland waterways (mostly frozen over In winter) and 2 per cent by truck locomotive plants were In part converted Into armament plant. Big Appropriation True, the government appro priated as much as a million marks to the federal railways, which previously had been more than self-supporting. But this money was earmarked for poli tical and social objectives. On the political side, the virtual mobilization of the en- tiro railway system early in September of each year, when millions of nazls flocked, trans portation-free, to Nurnberg for the annual party conclave, cost a pretty penny besides subject ing the system to great wear and tear. There were also the num erous district party conventions and national demonstrations of various kinds for which the rail ways had to move the nazl be lievers. On the social side, Labor Leader Robert F. Ley's vast "power through Joy" program with cheap excursions for the workers taxed the capacity of the railways further. Income Insufficient After one year of Hitler re gime, in fact, the Income of the federal railways (all railways hi Germany are government owned) became hardly sufficient to cover operating expenses.

New freight cars were constructed In but Insufficient numbers. Ac cording to Der Volkswlft, a ma Jorlty of Germany's 600,000 freight cars were obsolete by 1938. Even during the first winter of the war that of 1B33-40 the transportation system proved Inadequate. Adverse weather conditions made the breakdown more evident than otherwise. Fuel and foodstuffs did not move as they should, with the result that Berlin, for Instance, suffered a winter of privations. The winter of 1941-42 proved the worst ever. The inadequacy of the railway system became so obvious as to cause alarm in of ficial circles.
