3 Men flake Jail Break

Mlneola, N. r., September il. - (UP) - The sweetheart of one of three alleged burglars was said by officials today to have provided the revolver and the automobile which aided their escape from the Nassau County Jail last night,
 The woman is believed to have smuggled small revolver to Teddy Delmar when she visited him at the Jail yesterday, District Attorney Ed ward J. Neary said, and to have driven the Packard car in which they escaped after overpowering three jailers and sealing a lb-foot wall.
 Weary said the woman previously had tried to effect Delmars release on bail SO that they might be mar ried. Delmar, arrested on Q burg lary charge last August, would be subject to life imprisonment as a fourth offender If convicted.
 Two other prisoners, who made the break also, were captured out side the jail. They were injured when climbing over l5-toot wall, The escape began when jailer Harvey Pecan led @ prisoner to the cell where the five men were kept, When the door opener, they jumped on him. Taking his keys, they at- tackled two other jaiers, William Haysman and Charles Iehle. All jailers were bound and gagged.
 Sheriff Gustav Medered said that after overpowering the guards and locking them in cells the men fled fro mthe building, over the wall to a lane where a woman in a Packard car was waiting.
 The escaped men were: Walter Natewicz, 33; Teddy Delmar and John Jackson, 28, all of New York. Captured were Henry AInbrosiak, of Glen Head, N. Y, charged with rape, and Ralph Head of Rome, Ga, charged with rape and assault.

pressed in the following statement attributed to the staff of the Wa terbury hospital as expressed by pr. Foster.
 We physicians feel that the new contract is an opening wedge to the control of the medical profession by insurance companies"
 The Blue Cross directors have been aware of this fear, and, in or- der that the opinions of the doctors may always receive due weight, three of their members have rec gently been added to the Board of Directors, Blue Cross has never employed any physician or attempt- ed in any way to dictate the terms under which physicians work for or with hospitals, and it is diff cult, therefore, for the Blue Cross to SC chow the expressed fears of the medical profession can be well founded.
 Another fear which has been eX- pressed by the physicians is that the hospitals will not be fairly re- imbursed for these new increased services. The primary responsi- bility for protecting the hospitals rests, of course, on the hospital trus- tees, but the physicians interest in the hospitals is very great, and it is proper, therefore, that their concern should be expressed, As stated before, the policy of the Blue Cross is to pay the full cost of hos pital service. Hospitals in the past have rarely received more than this except in cases where they rendr luxury servic. The Blue Cross clients expect to receive semi-priv- ate service and in reimbursing the hospitals in full for this, the hos pitals should, in the long run, re- ceive slightly more than they have in the past.
 In offering the increased services listed in its new contract, the Blue has expected the same loyal and eff fective cooperation from the madi- cal fraternity which 1t has received in the past. The Blue Cross hopes that this cooperation will continue because 1t fears the withdraway thereof may hamper the program of providing for the people of Connec- ticut the best possible protection against hospital bills at the low est possible cost.
 In conclusion, the following state- ment is attributed to the Connec- ticut State Medical Journal
 "Connecticut medicine will not op- pose anything that is good for the people of the State but 1t is not impressed by the magic of this Plan"
 Because the Plan has grown in seven years from a small strug- gling institution with a debt, to a financially secure, non-profit or ganization, serving 100000 people, 1t is not unnatural to think of it as magic, but in fact it has been due consistently unselfish effort to miti- gate the burden of illness by en- abling people to plan, for their hospital bills at least, by means of small cooperative payments. That is all the magic there is to the Blue Cross Plan"

RunIess Stockings Ire Promised

New York, Sept. l1-(UP)-Stock- ings that won't run, pants that won't shine or wrinkle and woolens that won't shrink will make their appearance in postwar apparel shops, Dr. Donald H. Powers, of Bos- ton predicted today.
 Powers, in a paper read before the 108th meeting of the American Chemical Society, said that the rev. olutionary fabric changes had al- ready been effected in the labora- tory. He is head of the textile re- search program for Monsanto Chemical Company.
 A newly y-developed Syton solution will add as much as 50 per cent to the tensile strength of cotton fbiers, Powers said, will prevent stockings from running and permit looms to operate with greater efficiency by preventing breaks.
 Woolens can be made resistant to shrinkage and creasing by impreg- nation with a combination of for- maldehyde and members of the Melamine family, a carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen synthesis now used as molden plastics and adhesives, Pow CTS said. A proper saturation will not affect the feel and appearance of the fabric, he aid.
 The society opened a five day r,aaekinO lindar fha alIsnicpS Of the North Jersey section. today. Several hundred papers dealing with war time research and postwar activi- ties in rubber, petroleum, food, plas- tics, fertilizer, cellulose, gas and fuel, medicinal chemistry and edu- cation, will be presented to the meetings seventeen sections. Ap- proximately 1000 persons are ex- pected to attend the meeting.

Separation Center
Al Meade Unlikely

Projected plans for separation
center at Fort Meade, Md, to dis
charge soldiers from the Washing
ton area may have to be discarded
for lack OF space, it was learned
today.
The Army announced several
months ago that Fort Meade was
to be the separa ton center for this
area. 1t still Is under consideration
but the War Department is now
considering several other sites in
this area.
The Sd Service Command, of
which Washington is a part, is the
only one in the country without a
separation center either planned or
in operation. the Army spokesman
said.
The center was due to start opera
tions more than a week ago at Fort
Meade under command of Col.
Joseph A. Haig, but the Army
spokesman said at the last minute
it was found space couldn't be
spared.
The Army has established 18 CEN
tiers throughout the country to re-
lease men as near as possible to the
point from which they were inducted
into the service. Until the War De-
partment chooses a location for this
service commands center, Washing
ton men will continue to be dis
charged from Fort Dix, N. j.
