Here is my prophecy: "In its final development, the telephone will be carried about by the individual, perhaps as we carry a watch today.

It probably will require no dial or equivalent, and I think the users will be able to see each other, if they want, as they talk.

So dol The National Tribune, a 75-yearold weekly veterans newspaper published here, sounded the GI battle cry in its current Issue, assailing Phillips for "sorry inferences and misstatements" in a speech to the house. In an editorial the paper also warned congressmen they will commit "political suicide" if they support a proposal by Teague to bar from free medical care those veterans whose ailments aren't service-connected and who make $4000 yearly or more, "The veterans administration is over-investigated and under-financed," the paper said. "What kt needs is enough money from the congress to do what the American people want it to do." Ketchum said VFW will correct abuses of the veterans hospital privilege wherever found. But he said Phillips, in calling attention of the house to a number of specific cases, "may have let the cat out of the bag as to the next logical step by the economy groupto shut off compensation for men disabled in service who nevertheless are able to earn some income." of the veterans program So do The National Tribune. a School Strike Ends MEXICO CITY, April 10.

ganizations were hitting the ceiling today at congressional proposals to do some economiz-, 'N. on the multi-billion-dollar benefit program. They were girding especially for a fight against moves by Repre- sentatives John Phillips (R-Calif.) and Olin E. Teague (D-Texas) to put stricter limits on free hospital care for veterans whose ailments are not due to military service. Phillips, chairman of an appropriations subcommittee handling funds for the veterans administra, tion, has charged that hundreds of such veterans who could pay for )rivate medical care are getting it free, instead, at VA hospitals.

Waste, Abuse "Must Go" House members, more seriously than at any time since World war II, are looking this year for ways to save on veterans' outlays, both In the hospital field and elsewhere. They say waste and abuse must be weeded out of the program. Counterattacks against the economy moves have been launched by both the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the two biggest veterans groups. Their loaders see the drive es an entering wedge for another "economy act" like that of 1933, when all veterans benefits were cut to the bone.1 This thing apparently goes fur-I ther than just trying to get the chiselers out of the hospitals," said Omar Ketchum, VFW legislative director. The Disabled American Veterans, said it will stand with the "Big I Two" in opposing new legal restric-I I tions on veterans medical care.

spokesman said abuses such as those cited by Phillips can be cor-1 rected by the veterans administra-' tion. Amvels, a World war II ex-servlee group, declined to join the veterans' attack on Phillips and other economy advocates. "They pre not antiveteran," said Rufus Wilson, Amvets legislative director. "Sure, they are looking for ways to balance the budget. 1 They want the fat and frills cut out By FRANK ELEAZEll WASHINGTON, April 10.
