crisis entailing a record deficit of
more than $50, 1000, officials of Subur-
ban Hospital. Bethesda. will meet
tomorrow with the Montgomery
County commissioners and the coun-
tvs legislative delegation to the
General Assembly.
Arthur 3. Solon, hospital superin-
tendent, said the institution soon
would launch campaign for funds
but he hopes it can be placed on a
paying basis to do away with the
annual financial crisis.
r. Duncan Clark, a member of the
legislative delegation, said the meet
ing to discuss the problem will be at
I pm. tomorrow at Normandie
Farms.
County Aid Held "Skimpy"
Mr.. Solon said the hospital has
been running at a deficit ever since
it opened four years ago and that
it has been struggling along" with
the aid of private contributions and
"skimpy' county aid.
Last years deficit totaled $40 600.
Mr.. Solon said, adding that this was
overcome in part by a campaign in
which Montgomery County residents
contributed $4,000.
Most of the deficit, according to
the superintendent, results from
inadequate county contributions for
the care of INDECENT patients sent
to the hospital from county welfare
and Community Chest agencies.
Although the present average
cost for all expenses in treating
such patients is S13 per person

contributes only Sc per patient,
resulting in loss to the hospital
of 81 a day.

He said the number of such
patients constitutes about 20 per
cent of the hospitals normal oc-
cupancy of between rs and 80 per
cent of it's capacity. Other factors
contributing to the institutions

and State compensation rates.

Gen. Vandegrift Gets
Honorary Degree at
MaryIandC Convocation

Gen. Alexander A. Vandegrift ex-
pressed fear today that the American
opportunity to maintain a just and
fair peace may be lost through
ignorance or disinterest.
Speaking at the fall convocation
of the University of Maryland, dur
ing which he received an honorary
doctor of laws degree, the Marine
Corps commandant said it is now
clear that victory in World War II
had failed to make the world safe
for fundamental freedoms, even for
the present"
1T is apparent" Gen. Vandegrift
said, that We did not remove every
source of exploitation and aggres-
sion"
The Marine leader said the post
war situation raises two pertinent
questions:
Are we attempting merely to pre-
serve peace in our time under
standing full well that deluge will
surely follow?"
And are we so terrified at the
implications of atomic warfare that
we will settle for any kind of peace
at any price?"
He said it is not within the prov
ince of a professional Marine to
provide readymade answers but de-
clared, L am convinced that the
American people will not consciously
surrender their present opportunity
TO maintain peace that is Just and
fair"
He added, however, "I am less
firmly convinced that this oppor-
tunity will not be lost through ignor-
ance or disinterest."
In addition to Gen. Vandegrift,
the university honored Paul Saun-
ders, editor of the Southern Planter,
with a doctor of science degree.
