Plans for 5000, 900,
Hospitals Growth Given

WASHINGTON, D. c. - Plans for
5000, 100000 hospital construction
program to meet all anticipated vet
Grams requirements were made pub
lie recently by the veterans admin
istration. The two-year program is
now before the federal board of hos
pitalization for approval. It calls for
building 40 new hospitals and for
additions to many existing institu-
tons.
Officials said that if the plans
were endorsed by the board and
funds were appropriated by con-
gress, the administration would have
hospitals with a total bed capacity
of 100000 at the end of the 1947
fiscal year. ''We believe that will be
enough for all our needs" one off
cial said.
The bed capacity of present vet
Grams hospitals and those which are
under construction or authorized, is
1881. The new program would
add approximately $4,000 beds.
The remaining hospitals neces-
sary to bring the total capacity to
the 100000 bed mark are expected
to be transferred to the administra-
ton by the army and navy as their
own needs diminish.

24,OOO,OOO

CARS $4,000, 900
Approximately 100000 auto
mobiles, or about 20 per cent of our
1941 automobile population, died
during the war.
The other 23,000,OO0 to 24,000,00O
cars which we now have practically
all passed their prime, since there
are very few of them that are less
than four years old.
In general, the life of an auto
mobile is about one-tenth the life
of a person. A car is in its prime
for the first three years, just as a
man is until he is thirty. 1t begins
to get creaky at the joints when
it is four or five years old and
by the time it is eight or nine il
has SO many complaints that il
spends most of its time in the hands
of car doctors.
On the basis of ten years being
the average life span of an auto.
mobile, it will be necessary, in order
to return to normal, to replace al
of the cars in existence today, plu:
those which have become casualties
within the next six years.
That calls for production of a
least 100000 cars a year for si1
years, which is more cars than have
ever been produced in a year be-
fore.
This brief picture of the automo
bile situation should make it clear
that it is going to be a long time
before our automobile population
reaches the almost 100000 popula
ton of 194i.

all things, and desperately wicked:
who can know it,"
The Lesson-Sermon also will in
clude passages form the Christian
Science textbook, Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures, -
by Mary Baker Eddy, among which
is the following, page 537 - what
.soever a man soweth, that shall he
also reap Error excluded itself from
harmony. Sin is its own punish
ment."

" SNAPSHOTS
BY James Preston

Veterans Friend
Toiling in a textile mill as a
boy, Olin Dewitt Johnston learned
early the value of a dollar.
The husky, fortnight Senator
from South Carolina, although
comparatively new on Capitol Hill,
is winning respect for his knowl-
edge of economics and the hard facts
of taxation.
Millions of men and women who
served In the war are likely to think
gratefully of Johnston if his propos-
al becomes law He would forgive all
income taxes for members of the
armed forces from Dec. 7, 1941, day
of the attack on Pearl Harbor, to the
official end of the war
Like Rep. Frank Carlson OF
Kansas, author of tax reduction
plans, Senator Johnston is a vet
eran of the 1917-1918 struggle fol
Democracy, having served in this
country and France.
Unlike Carlson, the Southerner is
a strong champion of New Deal
policy. These men meet on common
ground, however, when talk turns tc
taxes that dig deep into the payroll
pocket.
Voters of his native state twice
sent Johnston to the Govenor'i
mansion before helping him defea
Cotton Ed Smith for the Senate
last November.
They applauded his use of ar
economical horse and buggy for thu
Inauguration ceremonies held the
second time he won the Governor
ship. He rode in the vehicle to thu
scene of the swearing-in.

Museum Story Hour
Saturday Morning
Presenting The Fourth Of The
Through The Looking Glass"
Series.

At the Saturday morning popular
Story Hour for Children, to be held
at the Washington County Museum
of Fine Arts at 1920 o'clock, Miss
Mary Harter, assistant to the direc-
tor Of the museum, will tell the
story of "The Palace of Minos," the
fourth in the Through the Look
ing Glass" series.
The story will describe favorite
Greek tale of the hero, Theseus, who
travelled from his fathers court to
Crete to help free his father from
paying a yearly tribute of seven
young men and seven maidens to the
King of Crete, Minos. Minos lived
in large and wonderful palace part
of which was called a labyrinth. In
this labyrinth the king kept a ter
rible beast, the Minotaur, to which
he fed the Greek youths and maid
ems. Theseus, with the help of the
beautiful daughter of Minos,
Ariadne, kills the Minotaur and
frees his companions. In 1895 Sir
Arthur Evans, excavating in Crete,
came upon a palace which he be-
lieved was the Palace of Minos, thus
bringing the story to life.

!. Greet Christmas

There were warmth, brightness
and good cheer indoors on Christmas
Day, bit for those who were forced
to travel or be outdoors, the going
was tough.
Rain and sleet in the morning
with freezing temperatures, coated
roads and walks with ice, and numer-
Gus accidents of more or less SER
ious nature, and falls of pedestrians
are reported. Travel conditions were
so slippery and dangerous that many
a planned Christmas visit was can
celed or postponed.
In the afternoon the temperature
moderated and rain increased to a
downpcur, that washed away much
of the snow blanketing the landscape
and softened up the icy coating
spread over everything. BY Wednes-
day morning, in place of an unbro-
ken whiteness covering the country
side there were great bare spots
showing through and the nine-inch
snowfall of few days previous was
on the way out.
