Commander of 11th U.S.
Airborne Div. In Germany
Restricts Entire Division
AUGSBURG, Germany, UD — A
U.S. Army general Saturday re
stricted every officer and man in
his division to their posts for the
weekend because of a wave of
brawls in German beer halls.
Maj. Gen. Derr ill M. Daniel,
commander of the 11th Airborne
Division, said he took the measure
“to protect the reputation of the
division and to maintain relations
with the Germans.”
It was the first time a U. S.
commander in postwar Germany
restricted his entire division to
their posts as a disciplinary mea
sure. The order involves between
10,000 and 15,000 men.
In a talk to his men here, Dan
iel said:
“There is no place in the 11th
Airborne Division for bad soldiers
or /hoodlums.”
German newspapers reported
some of the incidents involved
both soldiers and Germans. Dan
iel said the incidents were “dam
aging our reputation and endan
gering out relations with the Ger
mans.”
The division completed transfer
from Fort Campbell, Ky., to Ger
many last month.

all.
“Where were you two minutes
agd?” asked the cop.
"Under the dashboard trying to
fix the headlights,” said the uni
dentified driver.

Servicemen’s Dependents Entitled
To Virtually Free Health Services
Under a Bill Now Before Congress
WASHINGTON, UP—Sen. Rus-<
sell <D-Ga) said Congress should
enact a new government health
care plan for servicemen’s wives
and children in “pretty much the
same shape” already approved by
the House.
Russell heads the Senate Armed
Services Committee which com
pleted public hearings Friday on
the administration-backdd bill. He
said he expects the committee to
act promptly.
Under the bill’s terms, the gov
ernment for the first time in his
tory would declare that immedi
ate families of men‘and women
of the armed forces have a right
to free or virtually free health
services. Heretofore they have
been treated only to the extent
that facilities are available.
Patients would get many free
services, but would pay nominal
out-patient fees and the first $25
Margaret Truman, On
Way To Get Married,
“Walking On Pink Cloud"
NEW YORK, UP — Margaret
Truman left by train Saturday
for her home in Independence,
Mo., where she will wed news
paperman Clifton Daniel April 21.
Daniel, assistant to the foreign
news editor of the New York
Times, refused to kiss his bride
to-be at the station, saying:
“When you see your girl friend
off, you don’t have a gang
around.”
Before Margaret boarded the
train, she and her fiance ex
changed fond glances and Miss
Truman remarked to newsmen:
“You mean .you can’t see this
pink cloud I’m walking around
on?”
Cold Weather Forces Seals
Ashore On Long Island
WESTHAMPTON BEACH, N.Y.
UP—Seals have been seen splash
ing ashore on nearby beaches in
waters where they are a rarity.
Pilots stationed at Suffolk
County Air Force Base reported
seeing the seals on Plum Island
near the eastern tip of Long Is
land.
Unseasonably cold spring wea
ther in this area was believed
responsible for the seals’ visit.

of major hospitalization costs.
The Defense Department, in
backing the measure, has testified
it would provide dependents with
better health services than are
now available from any private
group plan.
The Department says nearly
half of the 2Vfe million wives and
children who would be affected
now get no health service from
the government because they are
too distant from military hospitals
and dispensaries, or because these
units are overtaxed. The law now
provides no overall program of
civilian care to fill this gap.
As the House passed it, the
pending bill would authorize the
Defense Department to require
maximum use of military facili
ties before paying for civilian
care, a feature which the Ameri
can Hospital Assn., have opposed.
They demanded' that depend
ents have complete freedom of
choice between military and civ
ilian care.
They said they feared that
without a free choice, the plan
might lead to an expansion of
military facilities, and thus bring
on an increased doctor draft pro
gram.
Winding up the hearings Fri
day, Russell told witnesses “I
can’t concieve of the Secretary of
Defense providing regulations
which would deny thh freedom of
choice” where reasonable military
care was not available.
