Ex-University M.D. Finishes Campaign Ousting Schreiber

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Dr. Walter P. Schreiber, chief of medical science in the German Army during World War II, left his job with the U.S. Air Force yesterday. This ends the three months' campaign of Dr. Leo Alexander, a former Medical School instructor, to remove Schreiber from his job because of his wartime record.

Schreiber, who acted as supervisor to Nazi concentration camp "experiments," has been working in this country for six months.

Brigadier General Otis O. Benson, Jr., commander of the Air Force School of Aviation Medicine at Randolph Field, Texas, where Schreiber worked until his dismissal, said he would be "turned over to the Joint Intelligence Agency in Washington for repatriation or any other disposition they see fit to make." The Air Force also pointed out that he has the right to petition the Immigration Service to stay in this country if he wants to.

Schreiber has not yet announced his future plans.
