ON-THE-JOB TRAINING
ON AUG. 8, President Truman
signed a bill giving the Veterans
Administration authority to exer-
cise a tighter control over the on-
the-job training section of the
Servicemen's Readjustment Act.
The bill prohibits payment of
subsistence allowances to veterans
with dependents if they are earn-
ing more than $200 per month
($175 if they have no dependents).
This provision applies regard-
less of whether the veteran's
wages come from on-the-job train-
ing or from outside work while
they are enrolled in school. This
does not, however, affect disabled
veterans enrolled under the Voca-
tional Rehabilitation Act (Public
Law 16).

CARS FOR VETS

PRESIDENT TRUMAN has ap-
proved a $30,000,000 appropriation
which provides automobiles or
other conveyances for each World
War II veteran entitled to com-
pensation for loss, or loss of use,
of one or both legs at or above
the ankle.
The cost of each vehicle is lim-
ited to $1,600, including any spe-
cial equipment necessary to oper-
ate it. Administrative procedures
for carrying out the above provi-
sions are being prepared by the
Veterans Administration and will
be announced later.

ents' pensions have been removed.

vice will now be able to draw

sion.

Opinions Clash on Truman Final View
on Pressing for Entry of 100,000 in Zion

(Continued from Page 3)

Reporters attached double significance to this because Snyder is a
member of the President's three-man Cabinet Committee for Palestine.
Crum charged the State Department, especially "middle level"
officials In the Middle Eastern Division, with "sabotaging" presi-
dential and congressional objectives in the formation of a Pales-
tine policy.

He claimed that to match every presidential statement of policy,
every congressional resolution, every party platform calling for the
creation of the Jewish National Home in Palestine a secret cable
had gone out from the State Department assuring the Arabs that
such steps would not be taken.
Answering reporters' questions after he had concluded his speech,
Crum (who had recently talked with the President about Palestine)
told the newsmen that the President was sincerely opposed to the
partition plan, that he was still earnestly seeking some means of
getting the displaced persons out of European camps.
The infeience to be drawn was that if there was any blame placed
on the American Governn - knt for delay in solving the Palestine situ-
ation it should be laid in the lap of the State Department rather
than on the White House doorstep.

Investigation of Charges Seem Unlikely

T

HERE SEEMS little likelihood that there will be any investiga-
tion of the Crum charges by the White House, especially in
view of the manner In which they were denied by the State Depart-
ment. Acting Secretary of State Dean Acheson, denouncing those who
take pot shots at the middle level officials while hiding behind flat-
tery of the higher ups, said that he was responsible for the carrying
out of the Palesthie policy and that to his knowledge it had been
done loyally and efficiently.
Thus, any investigation of the Crum charges would have to be
directed point-blank at Acheson, action which could hardly be ex-
pected to come from the White House.
Crum, however, continues to try to interest the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee in investigating the secret files which he claims
contain cables to substantiate his charges. At least one member of
the committee, Senator Guffey, of Pennsylvania, has expressed him-
self in agreement with Crum but, so far no one on the committee
has called for the investigation,
President Truman himself has made only a vague statement
regarding the partition plan. He hoped, the statement read, that
a decision could be reached "in a spirit of conciliation," a decision
that would bring peace and prosperity to Palestine.
As events have shaped up, however, either by deft political strate-
gy or by sheer coincidence two separate impressions have been
created. The impression has been conveyed to the British that Tru-
man is willing to accept any settlement of the Palestine problem
based on their partition plan—with its $300,000,000 bribe to the
Arabs •
