Jan. 18.—A comp^ison of war appropriations and expendi tures for the past two fiscal years and the approaching fiscal year was out lined in the budget message which Presidtot Rooeerelt sent to Congress last week. It Twas pointed out that gOTenrment expenditures for the war and all other purposes in the fiscal year ending June SO, 1144, totaled 1128,000.000,000. and that appropria tions for the cnrrent year' totaled 197,000,000,000, Authorisations and appropriations requested for the fiscal year 1945-46 aggregate 187.000,000,000. Of this total 84 per cent will be ex pended directly in the war effort, IS pec cent will go to meet veterans’ ex- penee#, interest on the public debt and tax refunds, and 4 per cent will take care of all other activities Of the Fed eral Government Outlays for the constriction of war plants now are declining, but there ill necessarily be increases in ex penditures for the pay of the armed forces, for munitions and supplies, for the development of new weapons^ for interest on the public debt, for tax refunds and other federal expenses. President Roosevelt reports there now are 2,900,000 federal employees of whom 2,040,000 are in the War and Navy departments and other var agencies, and only 836,000 in the post office system and similar peace time agencies. The total number of gov ernment employees has declined 126,- 000 from the June, 1943, peak, and further reductions will be made as the war permits. 1 have had a number of complaints recently from my disfrict concerning the del^ In delivery of msil to sol diers overseM, and my Inqnlries along that line have brought forth two statementa from the War department which may be of interest to my con stituents. One groop of complaints has con cerned difficulties in the receiving of mail by men~Ih the first few weeks after they go overseas. The War de partment informa me that during the early months of service abroad many soldiers are transferred through vart^ ous replacement centers and other in stallations before they are assigned to a permanent unit. ’These chaugM cannot be foreseen, of course, and mean that each piece of mail for such individuals has . to be oheckad «galnat records of transfers, have the address corrected, and then be forwarded These delays usually cease after the soldier gets a permanent address, has notified his family and friends, and they commence to write directly to bis new address. Also. I have bad a number ..of letters concerning difficulty in the receipt of mail by men who are hospitalised. In this case the War department aays that the answer is similar to that in the' pt«cedlng paragraph. The wound ed and sick are moved to the rear through a series of hospitals in order that appropriate treatment and quart ers may be provided. This means that each piece of mail addressed to the organisation with which the soldier was serving must have tha address changed and be forwarded, perhaps repeatedly, before it catches up to the addressee. Until such time as one address is retained long enough for It to be furnished to correspondents at lome and used os mail for direct de livery, there is no way of avoldlsg delay reeulting fromr the time con suming forwarding of mail. A system s now in effect whereby the esierg- ency addressee of the soldier serionsly ill or wounded is immediately notified by a member of the hospital staff of the new address. ’Ibis will assist In speeding delivery of mail. Lt J. L Brown Is Given Otation Major Alton C. Brown, Camden, who Is with the Seventh Army in France and attached to a hospital unit, tells an interesting story of how blood transfusions are keeping the death rate In Americans at a minimum. vme way t>t seeing wt a giance 'just how busy we are at any particular time is to check the number of blood transfusions given,” said Major Brown who is Chief of the Laboratory and Pharmacy section of the 11th Evacua tion hospital now following close to the 7th Army in its push Into Ger many. ’I can remember,” be said, ‘‘when eight or ten transfusions a day dur ing the Tunisian campaign was con sidered a ressonable number. How ever we have since given as many as 94 in a single day. On the beach head at Ansio our total for 12 days was in excess of seven hundred. II was at Anzio that we first made use of the blood bank. Until then we had man aged to get along on the donations by members of our own unit and those of neighboring outfits. ’The men were always willing to cooperate in giving blood. Major Brown’s first service with the Medical corps was at the Fort Bragg station in March, 1941. While at this station he was promoted to Captain before leaving to Join thC 11th Bvacu ation hospital on maneuvers at the Desert Training Center in California. In November, 1942, Major Brown sailed with the hospital unit for over seas service, arriving at Chwabianca. North Africa. Since then he has seen service at the ’Tunisian, Sicilian and French campaigns. It was dUTtng the Sicilian campaign that he received his promotion to Major, The Major’s- .wlfOr Mrs. Nellie Claire Brown, his daughter ’Therejm Claire A Certificate of Merit haa been awarded to Second Lieut.
