NUMEROUS
CHARGES

The request Of DR.. VIM. A,
White, for funds to begin a
SIS, 100000 building program at
st. Elizabeths Hospital, will
not be allowed in the current
appropriation bill as a result
Of the suspicion cast upon the

Seven Probes Held
Since the Fenning investigation
seven independent inquiries have

necessary to maintain the institu-
ton until the reports on all of
these Investigations are ready.
500 Patients Removed
In the hearings on the Depart
ment of Interior appropriation bill,
presented to the House today. DIR.
White testified that since the Fen
ming case was opened last spring the
Veterans Bureau has removed 500 of
its patients from st. Elizabeth's Hos,
pital. These patients have been
transferred to other Government hos
pitfalls.
AS a result of removals, following
the investigation, the population Of
st. Elizabeths is now down to 1000,
the lowest in a number of years.
Investigations of the hospital were
made by the Gibson subcommittee
of the House District Committee,
the House Veterans Committee, the
House Judiciary Committee, the
general accounting office, acting
under orders from Congress, the
Veterans Bureau, by five physicians
appointed by the Secretary of tho
Interior and by the hospital board
of visitors.
All of the investigations have
been completed except that by the
Comptroller Generals Office, which
will be finished within few days.
Reports have not been made by
several Of the investigating bodies.
The Committee on Appropriations
allowed an increase Of $4,000 in the
bill submitted to the House today.
