Health Council 10 Act
On Coordination Of
Work in District Area

Efforts to check disease in the
District and five nearby areas will
be more closely co-ordinated under
reorganization plan now before
the Washington Metropolitan Health
| Council.
The proposal on which the coun-
ellis co-ordinating board will act
December 4, calls for greater repre-
sentation for Prince Georges. Mont
gomery, Arlington and Fairfax
Counties and Alexandria, trans
forming the council from an agency
chiefly representative of the Dis
trict to one qualified to deal with
health problems of the entire area
If the council approves the re-
organization plan, it will request
transfer from the Council of Social
Agencies of the District of Colum-
bia and vicinity. which draws its
financial support from the Wash
ington Community Chest. The new
council would get its funds from The
Community Chest Federation, COM
ing directly under thai agency.
Was Urged in Medical Survey.
The health council is an unofficial
planning body representing official
health agencies and voluntary or
ganiza tions providing health service,
It's reconstruction on a more in
elusive metropolitan basis was one
of the chief recommendations of a
group of medical and hospital ex-
perts who surveyed the District
health scene at the councils request
last year.
Diseases do not recognize boun-
Diary lines" the surveyors pointed
out, urging representation from all
areas concerned and provision of
an adequate qualified staff to pro-
vide leadership and consulting serv-
ice"
A special health council sub
committee on agency membership
and relations, headed by Ray Ever
EFT, supported the survey recommen-
dation and drew up detailed re-
organizati ton plan which has been
approved by the councils survey
committee and executive commit
tee, and now awaits the co-ordinat-
ing boards action.
Provides for New Board.
1t provides for a new co-ordinat-
ing board of 36 members. The board
would include at least four men,
bers from each of the six areas.
Among these would be the chairman
of each local health council. The
Council of Social Agencies and Dis
trict health organizations would de-
ternine the District representa-
tion.
The delegate body Of the health
council would consist, as at present,
of active and associate members, the
former representing recognized Of
fetal and voluntary health agencies,
who would have the voting right in
council decisions. and the latter
chosen from lay organizations whose
interest in health is a collateral
activity.
Should the reorganization plan
be adopted, an additional admins
trative burden would fall on the
health council staff. which now
consists of only two full-time en-
ployes.
ultimately, it will certainly have
to have a larger staff" It was as
serted last night by DR.. Herbert P.
Ramsey, chairman of the survey
committee and past president of the
council,

Gates, Marines New CMef, Led
Every Type of Tactical Unit

McIlhenny of Washington, in 1920
They have one son, Clifton B. Gates
jr., q lieutenant in the Navy sta
toned at Norfolk, and daughter
Ann Willis Gates, II, who attends
school in Connecticut.
During the years of peace Gen
Gates served at various posts, in
cluding three years in China, aboard
ships of the fleet, and at various
schools and stations in this country
Served at Guadalcanal.
Early in 1912 Gen. Vandegrift put
him in command of the 1st Marine
Division for the Guadalcanal cam
paign and he stayed through that
desperate battle until the end.
These were without doubt the
darkest days of the war" Gen. Gates
says. Especially the nights of Oc-
tober 13 and IA, 1912 when the Jap
battleships bombed us numerically
and their bombers followed the next
day."
Many Of the generals voluninous
personal notes on the Guadalcanal
campaign were used by Richard
Tregaskis In his book, "Guadalcanal
Diary"
Gen. Gates was ordered to assume
command of the 4th Marine Divi-
sion during its attack on Saipan and
Tinian. The following February he
led the 4th on to Two Jima and re-
manned with, the division until Its
deactivation late in 1945,' when he
was ordered to Quantico. 3D.. ,.,.. :,
Like most Marines, Gen. Gates /,
vehement on the subject Of national
defense and constant preparedness
Sports Minded Officer.
This country has never lost a
war, and our people have no idea
Of what an enemy would inflict on
us If we lost the next war" he says.
II believe the men in the reserves
Of the services. who realize what
could happen, must help to main
tain the Nations interest"
Gen. Gates is regarded as one of
the most sports-minded OF top Ma
rine officers. At Quantico he has
backed every sport possible. includ-
ing a cross-country track team.
The Quantico football team, which
plays any college team it can sched-
ule, has five players who were on
the Naval Academy squad last year
and which defeated the Boiling
Field team yesterday. 1876.
Gen. Gates Is frank in his views
on foreign relations. He doesn't
think that Russia has the inclina-
ton to get involved in a war with
this country and Is certain that
this country will not go to war
against Russia.
If there is another war" he says
like many other military men, both
sides will lose. There will be no
winner"

The fact that Scotland is pre-

around industrial Glasgow, led to
predictions that the vote would show
a continuation of the right wing
trend evidenced Saturday in local
elections in England and Wales.
This swing to the right, which saw
net Conservative gains of 621 city
council seats and net labor losses OF
652 seats, was generally interpreted
as a reflection of public restiveness
under the increasing austerity of life
under the Labor government.

LAND FACE--At the land
face Of the fort, the peninsula
was about a half mile wide.
That face commenced about 100
feet from the river. It ran its
entire distance to meet the sea
fortification. Great difficulty
was experienced in it's construc-
ton because of the continual
shifting of the sands. No moat,
a common defense for that type
of fortific alton in those days,
was built. Meats were used to
halt foot soldiers from storming
the ramparts. The shifting sand
made construction of a moat a
virtual impossibility.
