Wilson Teacher Graduates
Hear Senator fuIbright

Creation of a federation of Euro
pean nations to stop the spread of
communism and promote world
peace was urged last night by Sena-
tor Fulbright, Democrat, of Ar
kansas.
Speaking before the graduating
class of Wilson Teachers College.
Senator Fulbright said this would
result in unified Europe and one
that. this country could help to
achi'ge a sef-supporting status.
Senator Fulbright said the pres
ent system of the United States aid
ing Europe in piecemeal fashion
will have to be dropped eventually as
impractical. A strong European
federation would tend to stop Rus
sian expansion and remove the dan
ger of war, he added.
The Senator spoke before a gradu-
ating class of 33 and an audience
of more than 500 persons in cere-
monies In woodrow Wilson High
School.

Washington hospital authorities
today resumed the study of local
health facilities in the hope that
the District may benefit from Fed
eral aid under the Hospital Sur
vey and Construction Act OF 1916.
A nine-man Hospital Advisory
Council representing the medical
profession, hospital officials and civic
groups held its first meeting yes
terday at the Health Department to
discuss the projected survey.
The committee was appointed by
the District Commissioners to ad-
wise Health Officer George C. Ruh-
land in planning hospital and health
center construction. When the study
is complete, the Health Depart
ment will report the city's most
urgent needs to the United States
Public Health Service.
Entitled to S1,500, 900.
Under the act, the District is en-
titled to $4,000 in Federal funds
to conduct the survey and maxi
mum of 81 ,49l, ,750 in the next five
years for construction.
There's a catch, however: For
every dollar advanced by the
Federal Government, local authori-
ties must produce 81. How the
District is going to raise the money
to take advantage of the Federal
offer battles the city's officials.
According to DR.. Rutland, who
presided at yesterdays meeting, the
only funds in sight that the Dis
trict could use for matching pur-
poses are an unspent sum of about
100000 for a health center and
about $809,000 for improvement OF
Gallinger Hospital, delayed by, cur
rent high construction costs.
Survey May Take Month.
The health officer said he thought
the new survey would take about
month. He pointed out that full
use would be made of the findings
of other survey groups in recent
years, including the health and
hospital survey of last year.
To help the Hospital Advisory
Council in its work. the aid of
building, fire and sanitary inspectors
will be requested in studying local
hospital plants, DR.. Rutland as
serted.
He was emphatic in pointing out
that the Federal act applies to
health centers as well as hospitals
and related facilities and indicated
the legislation might provide long
sought assistance in the construc-
tion of additional clinics under
Health Department operation.
Six New Centers Envisioned.
The department, he said, envi-
sions six new health centers to serve
the District population some day. So
far, only one such center especially
constructed for the purpose is avail
able. The Health Department is
supplementing this center with two
clinics in buildings not designed for
health service.
The new Southwest Center cost
$203, 900, but Municipal Architect
Merrel A. Coe estimates similar IA
cilities would cost about double that
amount today.
Although the health officer de-
clined to speculate as to where the
available funds might best be spent.
it is logical to assume that the
health centers and municipality
operated Gallinger Hospital would
be the chief beneflciaries. The ci5y's
non-profit hospitals are eligible for
a maximum of SIS ,ooo, 900 under the
proposed Norton bill.

'Bourbons' Rejoicing
|0ver Labor Bill, ave
Is Told by Bishop She'll
By George Beveridge
Sfor Stoff Correspondent

MILWAUKEE,, June. 2o.-The
Most Rev. Bernard j. Shell, Auxil-
iary Bishop of Chicago, today at
tackled the Taft-Hartley labor bill
as weapon to hamstring the move
ment "that has done more than any
other economic group to bring JUS
tice to ordinary men"
In keynote speech to the second
annual convention of the American
Veterans Committee, Bishop She'll
charged that the labor legislation is
only one evidence by the present
Congress of "a fading concern for
freedom and justice within this Ma
ton"
About 1000 delegates continuously
rocked MilWaukee's Civic Auditorium
with applause as their favorite
speaker-and only honorary mem
ber-put the case for a liberal social
and political order against the
forces of reaction" In this country.
Sees Carnival Air"
Charging that unions ''have been
more democratic within their own
ranks than have their managerial
counterparts," Bishop She'll said he
feared return to "the time when
the sphere of business was absolute
when even God, it seemed, could
not enter"
IT have detected carnival air
among certain of the rich, as If the
happy hunting days are about to
return" he declared. There is
rejoicing in the camp of the bour-
bons, and they charge, with un-
seemly haste, to pushy the sWeaty
people back behind the barricades." !"
Turning sarcasm towards the
labor. bill to the delight of his
audience of young liberal veterans,
Bishop Shell declared: Once more,
the workers inalienable right to
starve will stand as one Of the FORE
most pillars of free enterprise.
Once more, a total disregard for
human dignity will be accepted as
an avowed principle OF commerce.
Once more, the almighty dollar will
be elevated to the altar, to be wor-
shipped as the one true God"
Waning Care for Freedom.
/ Another example of waning cara
for freedom here, Bishop She'll de-
clared, "Is the regrettable tendency
to find communistic influence in
almost every proposal for legitimate
social and economic improvement. .
IF the high tide of national pros
perity recedes," he continued,
"many citizens may turn to COM
munism in the mistaken apprehen-
sion that the Communists are the
champions of the underprivileged.
| Delegates-waging a bitter fight
against communism in their own
organization during this four-day
meeting-went wild as the speaker
stated "it would be the height OF
folly to think there can be any
compromise between communism
and democracy"
1--WE can never forget" he warned,
that American communists are the
spiritual cousins and the servile
lackeys of totalitarism."
In a, strong statement against
military aggression by any nation.
Veterans Administrator Bradley to-
day urged "a bold foreign policy to
halt the sparks of imperialism.
Indignation Not Enough.
Gen. Bradley told the convention
this countr ycannot 'halt imperial
ism with moral indignation.

Bradley's words as they planned

Senate Party Chiefs
Agree 10 Act Today
On Teachers Pay

Senate party leaders have agreed
on action some time today on the
new teachers pay bill.
Senator Cain, Republican, of
Washington, sought to bring the
bill to the floor late yesterday by
unanimous consent, but leaders
agreed to bring it up today in
stead.
Although the $13,500,o0o District
revenue bill is still awaiting chance
to be brought to the floor, action is
not expected today.
Under the agreement, the pay
bill will be sandwiched in during
discussion of the Wherry presiden-
tia1 succession bill.
Boost Expires June 80.
Senator Cain, chairman of the
Fiscal Subcommittee of the Senate
District Committee and co-author
Of the bill, along with Representa-
tive Bates, Republican, of Massa-
chusetts, told his colleagues delay
would jeopardize the salaries of the
school teachers. A temporary $3.50
boost expires June 30.
The bill to be taken up will be
the House passed measure rather
than the Senate version, but it is
probable that Senator Cain will
include the amendments adopted
by the full committee. These would
liberalize sick leave benefits for at
tendance officers and would grant
a $500 increase to school principals
with masters degrees.
The fight is expected to center
on an amendment sponsored by
Senator Johnston, Democrat, OF
South Carolina, in the interest OF
1876 teachers who have reached a
rating of superior. This rating
would be abolished in the House
bill.
30 Would Be Frozen.
OF the 1886, some 80 teachers have
reached the maximum pay o1
$4,150 for a superior rating anc
would be frozen there.
Senator Cain plans q vigorous
battle against the Johnston amend
ment which, however, is backee
by seven of the IL members of the
District Committee. Two of these
Senator Cooper of Kentucky ,anc
Senator Capper of Kansas, are
Republicans.
The pay bill would give most
teachers a permanent 5000 increase
over their old basic rate and woule
allow $500 increase for the mas
ter's degrees.
Thus the basic salary jumps te
$2,500 for a teacher entering the
system or $1,000 If the teacher has
a masters degree.
Fifteen annual increments OF
500 annually would be provided but
are divided into three groups Of
five. To go from one group into
the next, the teacher would have te
show improved work through in
service training under the auspices
of the Board of Education.
