Campaign for $4,000
For Arlington Hospital
To Open on May 10

|. Arlington Hospital WILL open q
campaign for $85, 900 on May 10, It
was announced today.
The campaign, the third annual
appeal, will close June 5.
An announcement of the drive
disclosed that negotiations are now
under way for the purchase Of the
hospital from the United States
Government.
Not Less than 500, 900. ".
While the purchase price has not
been definitely decided, the hos
|pital announced, II will not be less
than $100,000f
"of the $s5,ooO goal, therefore.
$4,000 is allocated for the first pay
ment," the hospital announced. "A
similar amount will have to be
added to the campaign goal each
year to meet these payments.
In addition to the remainder OF
the goal covering the 1948 budget,
it must take care of the unpaid 1947
deficit, which was incurred through
failure to attain last years goal
and the unanticipated increase in
the 1947 budget, the hospital said.
Items on Budget.
The 1948 budget includes items
for repairs, improvements, new
equipment and the estimated deficit
for the year. The hospital said a
running deficit, which is experienced
by hospitals all over the country, is
the result of its policy of accepting
all patients regardless Of ability
to pay.
Campaign Chairman Lawrence w.
Douglas declared, "Our hospital Is
part of our community. Since
neither endowment funds nor tax
funds, which ordinarily supplement
the income of most long-established
hospitals, are available to Arling-
ton Hospital, the cash operating
deficit must be made up by private
contributions from the community
it serves.
1.-THE hospital campaign is the
foremost charitable appeal to the
residents of the county. I am sure
that the people of Arlington will
respond generously when called
upon for donations for which we
must not fail"

ton Of apartments.
A hearing on the petition by the
Board Of County Commissioners

County for large apartment prof.
ect."
Officers Nominated.
IF this land were reclassified and
approximately 1000 families were

timated school population of the
area, burdens on existing highway
systems, etc."

On Bill 10 Restore
10 Tax on. Truckers
BY Stoff Correspondent Of The Star

RICHMOND, Va, Mar. 2.-Public
hearings will be held tomorrow on
legislation to restore the per cent
gross receipts tax on common and
contract carriers-a subject that
two years ago brought threats OF
retaliation" against Virginia from
the District of Columbia, Maryland
and several other States.
The House Finance Committee
has set 3 pm. tomorrow for hearing
arguments on the proposal, whose
chief sponsor is Senator Andrew w
Clarke of Alexandria. The bill
passed the Senate Thursday.
To date, no district protest has
been heard from District of Colum-
bia officials or those from other
States. Reference to the fight at
the last session was made in debate
on another bill in the House of
Delegates yesterday.
This was In connection with a
measure to raise the license fees
for common and contract carriers
to bring charges against that in
dustry more nearly in line with in
creases voted for its competitors,
the railroads.
Moore Sponsors Bill.
The latter bills chief sponsor is
Floor Leader E. Blackburn Moore,
spokesman in the House for Gov.
Tuck and chairman of the House
Finance Committee that is to con-
slider the Clarke bill tomorrow.
Before passing Mr.. Moore's license
tax bill, 81 to %, the House also
approved an amendment to exempt
intra-State freight haulers from
the higher tag fees, but imposing
a 2 per cent gross receipts tax on
them instead. The vote on the
amendment, which was opposed by
Mr.. Moore, was 81 to AZ.
The House yesterday passed the
sixth, and final, bill in the Gov
ernor's tax program for the cur
rent session. 1t voted against the
administration on another measure
The bill approved was by Mr..
Moore to raise the franchise fees
on public service corporations by
one-half Of l per cent in all brack-
cts. The other five bills in the
program to bring in $14 ,000, 900 more
each year, have been approved and
now are awaiting the Governors
signature.
Repeal Is Approved.
Members voted against the ad-
ministration. however, in passing,
So to Is, bill to repeal the tax on
money or intangible personal prop
erty.
The House also gave strong indi-
cations of possible trouble ahead be-
fore final passage of the Magruder-
Damn bill permitting counties to
impose automobile license tag fees
similar to the power now reserved
only to cities. AS introduced, the
bill applied only to Arlington County,
but the Finance Committee amended
it to give it general application to
all counties.
411C DlA1 was oColSIlCO dSo q SoAll-
pafion to another, already passed,
giving Arlington a city's taxing
power on businesses and professions.
Mr.. Damn told the House that the
patrons did not object to extending
the power to other counties, but If
the committees amendment created
opposition from other delegates, he
and Mr.. Magruder would oppose it.
When several members objected to
the revised bill, further considera-
ton was postponed until today.
The outlook today was for more
controversy on the S512, ,000, 900 bud
get bill which has been set for spe-
cial order in the House this after
noon.

Regally bearded Charles Evans
Hughes came within a Whisker of
being elected the 9th President of
the United States in 1916.
At that time he was, a crusty.

was probably because of that tom
permanent that he lost the presl-
Dental race to Woodrow Wilson i'll
n of the closest elections in his
tory-277 electoral votes to 254.
California's vote was the deciding
factor in the final result and Hughes
lost that when he incensed the Cali
fornia governor by failing to visit
him while on a tour of the state.
But Charles E. Hughes was, new
ertheless. as near to being a great
man as most people ever get. And
he mellowed with time.
He was the only American ever
to be appointed twice to the U. S.
supreme court once in 1910 and
again in 1890 when he returned to
preside as chief justice.
He was twice governor Of New
York. his native state. resigning
tile position during his second term
to become a supreme court assos

In July, 1871. he retired from the
supreme bench to withdraw into

August of this year he made only
one public appearance to attend

in April. 1916.
Late last month Charles Evans

CREEK CRISIS:
Relieved

Few U. S. forays into the field
of international aid have been sc
widely condemned and excoriated
as the so-called Truman doctrine
for economic help to Greece and
Turkey.
Almost since its inception the
Truman doctrine" has been de-
nounced as a fraud, a farce and q
flop. Much of the denunciation,
however, seemed to be based on
opinion rather than fact. Actually,
for a long time it was almost i'm
possible to assess the condition Of
the Greek aid program.
Now the government has come
out with a report to congress that
states bluntly that American mill
tary and economic aid has removed
the danger of Greece falling to
communism.
While not all the problems in
Greece are solved, the crisis of 10
months ago has been averted," one
official said. THE aid program in
Greece is over the hump"
The report, submitted by Presi-
dent Truman and covering the first
year of American efforts to keep
Greece free, embodied virtually the
first optimism anyone has ex-
pressed regarding the picture in
Greece.
So far does this optimism extend
that Greece now is accepted Of
ficially as the bright spot" in
American attempts to help other
nations resist the onslaughts Of
communism. In Asia and other Eu-
ropean countries the anti-coInmu-
mist battle is not considered won.
Government emphasis, Of course,
is on the fact that the task in
Greece still is not done. Between
$4,000 and 1900 Greek g~uerriIlas
remain at large despite recent sue
cesses by government forces. And
guerrilla action may continue for
several years. depending on the
amount Of aid received by the
rebels from Albania, Bulgaria and
Yugoslavia. g
Briefly. the official success story
of the Greek effort claims that the
nations wild imitation has been re-
sisted, the cost of living is drop
ping. about 1000 miles of key roads
have been reconstructed and the
vital Corinth canal is open to
traffic. II
