Chest Seeks Formula
To Reduce Hospitals
Losses on Indigents

The Community Chest Federation
plans to work out a budget formula
that will increase payments to
Washington area hospitals which
cite huge losses in the treatment of
Chest-fnanced INDECENT and semi
INDECENT patients.
Oficials said today plans for pay
ment to the hospitals for 1949 prob
ably will be based on amounts that
approximate the charges hospitals
make to other ward patients" Here
tofore payments have been at fiat
rate which Chest officials admit do
not nearly meet hospital costs.
The budget committee, which de-
termineS needs of Chest-financed
activities, will meet next week for
the first session of discussions that
will result in a tentative budget,
expected to be completed by the
end of this month. Chairman of the
federation committee is Frank A.
Birgfeld, retired, chief clerk of the
Treasury Department.
Oficials indicated the first step
will be a meeting of the committee
with Willard c. Smith, director of
the Health Security Administration,
which handles Chest payments to
hospitals for treating semi-indigent
and INDECENT patients. Hospital ad-
ministrators will submit estimated
needs for 194S through HSA, based
on the number of Chest patients
expected to be treated next year.
After all needs are compiled by
the budget committee, goal for
the Chest fund drive this fall will
be set
The Chest allocated about $432,-
900 to hospitals this year from the
s3,325 900 raised last fall, officials
said. Another 100000 was lost to
the hospitals because the drive
missed it's goal of $3,900,000, they
explained.
Rate Of Payments.
Regardless of hospital expenses,
NSA now pays hospitals at the rate
of $3.50 per adult-day of treatment
of certified patients, 50 per infant
day and 81 for out-patient visits.
Semi-indigent patients swell the
hospital fund by paying whatever
they can afford, as determined by
HSA.
Hospitals, meanwhile, have threat
ened drastic curtailment in service
to the INDECENT and semi-indigent
patients unless payments are raised.

Western Powers Ask
ii. n. 10 Reconsider
Italy, Trans-Jordan
BY the Associated Press

LAKE SUCCESS, April 3-The
western powers demanded again to-
day the admission Of italy and
Trans-Jordan into the United Ma
tions.
Both countries have been blocked
twice by Soviet Russia vetoes.
The three powers-the United
States, France and Britain-indi-
Gated they want the membership
issue settled Immediately.
The demand came Just two weeks
after the three powers called for
the return Of Trieste to Italy and
two weeks before the crucial italian
elections.
Gromyko's Veto Expected.
Moscow has not tipped its hand
yet on the Trieste question. There
was immediate speculation here that
Andrei A. Gromyko, Soviet deputy
foreign minister, would be guided
on the italian application by the
Soviet reaction to the Trieste pro-
posal.
He is expected to veto Trans
Jordan a third time.
Warren r. Austin, chief United
States delegate; Alexandra Parodi,
head of the French delegation, and
Valentine G. Lawford, membership
expert of the British delegation,
signed letter to DR.. Alfonso Lopez
of Columbia, this months presi-
dent of the Security Coucil, asking
reconsideration.
The three delegates said that they
believe 1t appropriate to bring up
the two applications in view of the
meeting Of the Assembly in special
session April Is.
Calendar Could Be BrOadened.
That session was called to con-
slider Palestine alone. But two
thirds vote of the members can
broaden the work calendar.
| The last Security Council battle
on members was October l, 1947,
when Mr.. Gromyko vetoed the ap-
plications of Italy and Finland.
At the same session Romania,
Bulgaria and Hungary failed to
muster the necessary seven-vote
majority to pass the Council.
| Meanwhile, China's top delegate
to the U. NJ, DR.. T. F. Tsiang, de-
clared his country will keep hands.
off on partition in the special As
sembly.
He said in an interview that he
feels solution of the whole Pales-
tine problem is impossible unless
Jews and Arabs agree.
Battle Over Partition.
He was the first of the Big Five
delegates to disclose his plans for
the special Assembly.
One of the most heated battles
will be whether to overturn the
partition decision. One key delegate
who would not be identified said
he doubted the Assembly will re-
verse its action. Last November
% the delegates voted SO to 13 for
dividing the Holy Land into Jewish
and Arab zones. Ten countries, in
Guiding China, abstained, and the
57th nation, Siam, was absent.
Arab sources disclosed, mean
while, that Jamal Husseini, vice.
chairman of the Arab Higher Com
mittee and right-hand man of Hal
Amin FL Husseini, exiled Mufti of
Jerusalem, will arrive by plane Mon
day to talk truce with the Security

Council last Thursday called on the

creased income tax rates, and a
higher Federal payment.
Congress last year, by substantial
votes, refused to apply the District
income levy to persons resident here
but claiming domicile in their home
States. This is one Of the main
reasons why Congressional and
District leaders have turned to the
sales tax as q practical answer to
the citys revenue needs.
One other possible means of i'm

posed in principle by Mr.. Bates, ex-
