Bill Provides Voluntary
St. EIizabefhs Admissions

Representative Buck, Republican,
of New York has introduced in the
House, a bill to authorize st. Eliza
beths Hospital to admit and treat
patients on voluntary applications.
The measure, which was re-
quested by the Federal Security

mittee on Education and Labor. 1t

tee on Institutions, of which Repre-
sentative Buck is chairman.
The bill would provide that per-
sons who are not adjudged insane,

help might apply voluntarily for
Treatment. Under present proceed
ure, persons may be admitted to
the institution only by court COM

Scientist Asks Stain
To Put Atomic Issue
Directly Up 10 People

An appeal to Soviet Prime Min
lister Stain to resolve the dead
lock" between the United States and
Russia by putting their differences
up to the people of the two coun-
tries was published by an atomic
scientist today after he was refused
permission to send it directly to
Stain.
The State Department ruled that
it would not be in the national
interest" to approve transmission
to Moscow of the appeal by DR.. Leo
Szilard, Hungarian-born University
of Chicago professor, who played a
prominent role in development Of
the atomic bomb.
DR.. Szilard then printed his ap-
peal as an open letter to Stain"
in the Bulletin of the Atomic Sci
entists
He proposed that Mr. Stain speak
directly to the American people,
possibly once a month, presenting
Russia's proposals for general
postwar settlement, and that Presi-
dent Truman address the Russian
people "just as often as you speak
to the American public"
DR.. Szilard said he had sought
permission from the Justice Depart
ment to send his letter directly to
Stain. Under the Logan Act, it is
illegal for a private citizens, with
out official permission, to carry on
correspondence with any foreign
government in an effort to influ-
ence its conduct in relation to any
disputes with the United States.
The Justice Department made
public letter from Undersecretary
of State Lovett concluding that it
would not be in the national interest
to grant DR.. Szilard's request. Mr..
Lovett said granting permission to
transmit the letter might be con-
strued as approval of DR.. Szilard's
views which "are not of nature to
assist in the solution of the prob
lens with which the letter deals"
