Arriving Veierans Send
'Homeward Bound' Wires
I If
REAR CAS S OF
ALL
ES
Nearly half of the 200,000 or
more veterans arrivinil from
overneim each month lire send
hiK lloinebard Mound telegrams
Immediately to tho home folks,
K, I', LIvliiKHton, local maniiKur
of tho Western union Telegraph
company, announced last nltilit.
On some ships more than two
thlr'ds of tho men send Home
ward Bound wires. These uro
prepared beforo the ship docks
and are about tho first thing to
come off a troopship. By tho
time tho last soldier has debark
ed from tho vessel, Johnny's
message Is already flushing
across tho wires to his loved
ones.
Fixed-text tclonrams approved
by tho army and navy aro pro
vided to returning overseas vet
erans. They include such phrases
as "Back in tho States. Feeling
fine. Furlough soon," or "being
discharged here. Will be homo
noon. Hound up tho gang lo cele
brate." Veterans who face a pe-(
riod of hospitalization give the
news to their families In mes
sages such as "Passing through
here. Will write from next hos
pital. Feeling fine. Love."
As soon as the men reach
their army redistribution point,
many more telegrams ore sent.
At Camp Shanks, a typical Now
York port of embarkation camp,
tho top volume is uround .10,000
a day, Many of these self-composed
telegrams sparkle with
true GI originality: "Just shook
hands with the Stutuo of. Liber
ty! Sec you in a,few days."
Tho dynamic spirit and ever
ready sense of humor of the
men is reflected in communiques
like theso: "Established a beach
head at Now York today. Objec
tive: home soon." "HI, darling!
Hide tho milkman, I'll bo home
PDQ. Love." "Sunday, Monday
or, well, Tuesday! Great day In
the morning! 1 love you." Other
messages read, "Feed the fryers
and straighten out the fishing
liicklcl" "Landing accomplished.
Get big buckets of red paint!"
"O boy, O boy and stuff!"
And "Coming In on a wing and
a bottle!"
Hospitalized veterans who arc
unable to walk to any of the six
telegraph offices located at
Camp Shanks, prepare their tele
grams with the bedside assist
ance of Red Cross Gray Ladies
and telegraph employes who
visit each ward.
As an aid to wheelchair pa
tients, a special telegraph desk
is provided for the camp hospi
tal office. The desk is built so
that the wheelchair will go un
der the desk top.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30 (!';
Countries formerly allied with
nazl Germany may get a chance
to plead their own cases before
the Big Five foreign ministers
In London next month.
Similarly, It was learned to
day, nations involved In terri
torial disputes may be sum
moned to present their views
when the council convenes for
tho first limn September 10. The
council Is a creation of the re
cent Potsdam Big Three con
ference. To Hear Menaces
Secretary of State Byrnes Is
expected to propose full hearings
in order to bring out all facts
related to any controversial mat
ters he fears might menace the
pence of Europe.
Byrnes also is understood to
have several other suggestions
designed to speed up the work of
the council. It has been as
signed the task of drawing up
proposed peace treaties for Italy,
Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary and
Finland, In addition to recom
mending solutions for the terri
torial disputes.
Expert Committee
One proposal Byrnes may
make would establish commit
tees of experts to deal with the
major specialized problems. For
example, a committee of experts
on Italy could be created to draw
up a report on proposed terms
of the allied-Italian pcaco treaty.
When the report on Italy was
ready, tho foreign ministers
themselves would consider it,
then give Italian government of
ficials an opportunity to present
their views.
Other Questions
Then, tho council itself finally
would formulate a finished pro
posal for presentation to the
United Nations.
Similar groups would deliber.
ate other treaties and such tick
lish territorial questions as
Trieste, Aorta, and the Greek
Yugoslav boundary.
