want to pass q law" Yet there are
fields of human behavior that do not
readily yield to law, where, indeed,
a law may be felt to impinge on
the rights Of some, in protecting the
rights Of others.
Groups who attempt to remove
from all phases Of life the exercise
of religious discrimination must as
sumo that no one takes his religion
seriously. Religion Is an act OF choice
hence Of discrimination, bound to
extend to some degree beyond the
immediate person and even to cate
gories of employment. II an en-

child's room, the religious sffiliation

will undoubtedly feel it his right
to exercise discrimina tion against
anyone homeopathic toward the
religious principles Of the family.
In sll intimate employment-such
as that of confidential secretary
the employer will seek the utmost
compatibility.
Private Educa tiOn Involved.
Private education also is involved.
Where schools are secular, whether
public or private, religious factors
cannot reasonably enter into choice
of students. But where they are
founded to exert certain religious
influence and chosen by parents for

discrimination is implicit. Freedom

70 Hospitals Here
Approved in Check Up

Full approval was accorded to 20
hospitals in the District in the
annual survey of the Nations medi-
cal facilities by the American Col
lege of Surgeons, results of which
were announced today.
The approved hospitals were the
only institutions in the District
covered by the 1916 survey, designed
to measure adherence to accepted
standards of equipment, technical
competence of the staff, adequacy
of patients supervision, accuracy Of
records and proper administration.
They included the following hos
pitfalls: Casualty, Children's, Co.
lumbia Hospital for Women, Doc
tors, Emergency, Episcopal Eye, Ear
and Throat, Freedmen's, Gallinger,
Garfield, Georgetown University,
George Washington University, Ma
tional Homeopathic, Providence,
Saint Elizabeth's, Sibley, Soldiers
Home, Washington Sanitarium,
Mount Alto, Walter Reed and the
Bethesda Naval Hospital.
Analysis of the report shows a
drop in the number of institutions
approved throughout the country
for the first time since the surveys
began in 1918.
The decline, from 3,181 in 1945 to
BIB in 1916, was attributed by DR..
Irwin Abel of Louisville, KY, presi-
dent of the surgeons group, to
higher standards demanded by the
survey committee last year than
during the war, when allowance was
made for unavoidable shortages of
personnel and supplies.
