C. H. A. SERVICE
SUPERIOR, SAYS
DR.. SCAN DIFFIO.
Medical Trust Inquiry
To Resume Monday

With numerous exhibits before
the members for their conSidera-
ton. the special grand jury in
vestigating Government charges
that organized medicine has vio-
lated antitrust laws in its per-
sonal fight against the Group
Health Association will convene
again Monday morning.
Yesterdays witnesses included
DR.. Mario Scandiffio, pediatrician
of G. H. A., and Miss Mary
Frances Steuart, laboratory
technician for the group.
DR.. Scandiffio. one of the first
victims of the District of Colum-
bia Medical Association purge" Of
its membership rolls for G. H. A.
sympathies, was ousted from the
association some time ago but has
appealed and will be given hear
ing before the Judicial Council
Of the American Medical ASSocia-
ton next month.
ANSWERS CHARGE
While DR.. Scandiffio declined to
make any statement on leaving
the grand jury room after about
three hours, a little while later
he replied to charges of "ineffec-
tiveneSs and inadequacy" of the
G. H. A., hurled by the District
Medical Association. He said:
From my experiences in pri-
vate practice and with the G.
H. A. activity, I can say from
my standpoint that the type of
practice carried on in this group
Is far superior to the type of
work done in private practice,
for the reason that we have
every available facility at our
fingertips."
DR.. Scandiffio pointed out that
many times patients go to a pri-
Vate physician and require some
special type of laboratory work
which the average physician is
not equipped to dc. Also con-
sultation may be needed in spe-
cial fields such as eye, ear, nose,
throat or surgery. This will re-
quire sending the patient to a
specialist in one of these fields.
This is not only an additional
expense for the patient, but causes
loss of time that may be detri-
mental to the well-being of the
patient, he declared.
TELLS ADVANTAGES
However, when the patient
comes to the G. H. A. clinic all |
Of these facilities are at hand, ,
with specialists in the various
fields, so that regardless of the
ailment the patient gets imme-
diate attention from some quail
fled person, DR.. Scandiffio said.
He added!
This is one of the greatest
advantages we have. We get
consultation within a few min.
utes, with no waste of time and
there is a far closer personal
contact between the physicians
because of their affiliation."
Miss Steuart declined to make
any statement after being closeted
with the jury for less than 80 min {

ANTONIO AJELLO
Candle Art. Master
Dies at 70

Antonio Ajello, master candle
maker, whose elaborate samples
of art have been presented to such
personages as Mussolini, the Pope,
General Pershing, the Duke of
Windsor, the late Queen Marie of
Rumania, four American Presi-
dents, and hosts of other distin-
guished persons, died yesterday at
his New York city home at 10.
For more than so years, Mr..
Ajello was a master candlemaker,
whose sweet-scented tapers, made
from a secret family formula,
have gone around the world. His
masterpiece was the memorial
candle nodded for Enrico Caruso
by public subscription in 1921.
This torch, which took six months
to make, weighed a ton, and was
10 feet high. Burning for "a hours
every All Souls Day, in the Naples
church where it stands, Mr.. Ajello
calculated it would last 1900
years.
Born near Sorrento, Italy, Mr..
Ajello was one Of a family which
for 165 years had made cere-
candles, raising its own
bees for the wax and working on
a secret formula which scented
the candles with the perfume Of
flowers. He came here with his
father at the age of IL, and later
his own factory.
The Washington times., 1938-08-09

personality has led many to be-
heve that they are dumb" dogs
and because their heads are
slightly domed, long and narrow,
there is not enough space for
brains. One might just as well
say that a hippopotamus is
qualified to teach at a university.
In Russia, color is not a
cardinal feature because the
dogs there are really used for
wolf hunting and therefore color
is unimportant, but in England
and America solid white is pre-
ferred, but may be marked with
tan or gray. This is due to the
fact that as a dog for a lady of
fashion or for a picturesque fig
ure on the country estate, the
brand is unexcelled. He is
proud, naughty and disdainful
and is a serious opponent when
acting as a guardian.
In height, 80 inches is consid.
cred about the average at tip of
shoulder while they may weigh
from rs to 100 pounds. The fe-
male usually is somewhat
smaller than the male.

DR., PETERSON
Rites for Physician

DR.. P. B. Peterson, 70, former

Pennsylvania medical circles, died
yesterday at his home in Homes

canine companion, for he never
fails to win attention wherever
he goes and, in my opinion,
well deserves it.
A book on wolfhunting, pub
Hshed about the middle of the
Seventeenth Century, describes
dogs Of this breed as being ORR
entail in origin. It seems prob
able, therefore, that there may
be some foundation in the theory
that they are related to other
dogs of their type, such as the
Seldom-seen Saluki or Afghan
hound.
It may truly be stated, how
ever, that the wolfhound is a
white Russian" not only be-
cause white is usually the pre-
dominating color, but due to
the fact that up until the time
Of the World War, the borzoi
were owned and generally ia
Vored by the cars Of Russia and
mobiles of their court.
Those who have a special in.
tereSt in the breed will agree
with me that the wolfhound has
been both ibeled and slandered
concerning its intelligence.
