culties develop.

On the House side, where the
slab is larger, workmen expect to
complete the concrete pouring BY

from virtually all the gallery
walls. They will be covered with
an acoustical material. This ma
terial will be covered with spe.
cially woven fabric of soft colol
into which has been worked ar

District Doctors
Oppose Truman
Health Program
Only n Of e18 Poiled
Approve Compulsory
Insurance Plan

= An overwhelming majority Of
Washington doctors have regis.
tered unqualified opposition to
President Truman's compulsory
health insurance program in
District Medical Society referen-
dunn, it was learned last night.
The study was made, officials
said, in answer to charges that
American Medical Association op-
position to the program is not in
accord with the views Of rank and
file members.
The poll was taken on the ap-
peal of several doctors to "end
any conjecture on this point" as
far as Washington doctors are
concerned, according to an article
in the current issue of the Medical
Annals Of the District Medical
Society.
Only 81 Favor Truman Plan.
A total of 91S doctors here an
swered the poll, showing these
results:
l. Twenty-one said they were
in favor Of the Truman compul.
sorry insurance plan.
2. The largest number, 869, said
they favored extension of volun-
tary health insurance plans, both
in coverage of more persons and
more benefits.
3. Another % doctors said they
approved of neither.
Members of the society were
asked to check one of the three
points listed on the referendum.
Typical Of comments among the
20 doctors wso said they favored
neither the compulsory nor the
voluntary plans, the annals re-
ported, were these:
II favor a sort of free hospital
system equivalent to free public
schools"
! Federal Aid Indicated.
Neither voluntary nor compul-
sorry health insurance is desirable,
I believe families with less than
$l.500 income cannot get good
medical care, and Federal aid to
the States in developing coverage
for this income group is indicated.
Families should pay certain per-
centage OF income, the rest from
taxes"
Il recommend that the ANA
sit down with the administration
and formulate a national health
bill mutually satisfactory"
The 918 doctors whose answers
are covered in the report were
among 1866 voting members of
the society to whom poll ballots
were sent, the society said. Addi-
tional replies which have come In
after publication OF the annals
report, they said, Closely follow"
the earlier returns.
Proposed by DR.. Mattingly.
The poll was proposed by DR..
Thomas e. Mattingiy at q society
meeting May 4 at which a dis
cnssion OF the health insurance
proposals gave no statistically
decisive picture of the members
sentiments.
On another part of the poll bal
lots, 222 doctors indicated ap-
proval Of Federal assistance to
States in developing coverage un-
der voluntary insurance for the

In the way of general COM

doctor said he favors education
Of the public "to the fact that
existing facilities are adequate.
Another. however, said, "While
