Comprehensive Sud-
Of Cost Of Hospital
Services Underway

A comprehensive study of hos
pital costs-and their relation tt
the ability of District residents te
pay for them-is under way ir
Washington hospitals.
The study is expected to be
especially valuable in further de-
velopment of prepayment health

clear picture of services respon-
sible for high costs of operating
hospitals.
The study. sponsored by the
District Medical Society and the
District Medico-C -Chirugical Society

of technical staff from the
United States Public Health Serv-

the study at Sibley, Garfield and
Columbia Hospitals. Interviews
began last week at Emergency and
Episcopal Hospitals.
DR.. Karl c. Corley, chairman
of the District Medical Society's S
committee on medical care,
praised cooperation of patients,
doctors and hospitals for making
possible the study.

will not only be enlightening but
valuable as a guide to the medical
profession and other groups in
dealing with economic problems

Rail Fare Raise Spurs
Advance Ticket Sales

Higher basic railroad passenger
fares. effective at midnight No

regular travellers here to buy ad-

recently by the Interstate Com

fected is East of the Mississippi

71% Of Fatal Accide dents
Here Occur al Night

Thirty mine per cent of Wash
ington's traffic accidents during
q recent six-month survey hap
pened at night, but II per cent OF
all fatal accidents took place after
dark, according to report from
the Street and Traffic Safety
Lighting Bureau at Cleveland.
The bureau included 80 other
cities in its survey, which 1t said
indicated two to three times as
many persons are killed in night
traffic accidents as in daylight
ones.
OF 1882 night accidents, 60s
were fatal, as compared with 366
or 127 ,608 daytime accidents. the
statistics indicated. Night acci-
dents which accounted for only 81
per cent Of the day and night to-
tai caused SO per cent Of the
deaths, according to the figures.
Washington had 1895 night ac-
cidents, of which 20 were fatal,
and 3.673 daytime accidents with
eight fatalities. the report said.
Only 81 of the 81 cities re-
ported fewer deaths at night than

Fear Of Penalty Linked
To Disappearance Of
Cook After Car Crash

Police searching for French
cook who dropped from sight after
his new automobile cut down a
lamp post on Hains Point Thurs
day night believe the two years
he spent in a German concen-
tration camp may furnish a clue
to his disappearance.
They pointed out. however. that
Rene Marchal, 35. had little more
than a $40 fine to fear as the
result of an accident which caved
in the front of his 1949 sedan
and toppled over the lamp post.
Harbor police yesterday dragged
the Potomac just of the seawall
on the possibility MI. Marchal
might have jumped into the river.
Park Policeman H. L. Hayden
found the little Frenchman, a
sauce cook at the Mayflower Hotel,
Evening star., 1949-11-20

sitting oejectedly in his damaged
car about 40 feet from the broken
lamp post. He identified himself
and admitted his car had done
the damage, the officer said.
Pvt. Hayden reported he went
to examine the damaged post. and
found on his return to the auto
mobile that the driver had disap-
peared. A search of the area failed
to disclose where he had gone. The
officer reported he had said moth
ing to frighten Mr.. Marchal.
Park police said yesterday the
drivers insurance probably would
cover damage to the car and an
other 500 for the lamp-post, and
he probably would have had to
pay a $40 fine for failure to main
tain control of his automobile.
A veteran of the French army,
Mr.. Marchal came to America in
1947 under an immigration quota
and had worked regularly ever
since, according to Miss Katherine
Spiess of 2101 N street NV, a
cousin. He had been sponsored
|by her father, Joseph Speiss,
Miss Speiss said.
Investigators believe Mr.. Mar
chal is hiding in fear Of a harsh
penalty or that he may have
jumped into the river. Relatives
said he is an excellent swimmer. :
Mr.. Marchal bought his automo-
bile recently, the first he ever
owned, and friends said he was
very proud of it. He had expected
to become an American citizen.
He lived at Alt Seventh street

q conclusive test of support.
In about six weeks the COM

enough prospective members are
available to make the project
workable.
Ideally Situated.
Present plans call for erection
of an ultra-modern building
where domestic and foreign
produced goods may be placed on
permanent display to stimulate
trade among nations"
The preliminary survey by an
industrial research engineer graft
fled the committees contention
that Washington. representing a
neutral area, non-competitive
with eastern seaports. is ideally
constituted for a world trade
mart.
Location of foreign commercial
agencies here, quick personal liai-
son with foreign embassy staffs,
Washington easy accessibility by
air and rail, the huge tourist trade
and the large number of conven-
tions here were other factors cited
in favor of the mart.

Committee calls for organization
Of an International Trade Mart
Association here as a non-profit
corporation.

products. Other members would
be non-dlsplaying concerns such
as steamship, railroad and airline
operators, port authorities. ex-

tions in Washington would be
given free membership. The
cost of other memberships ten
tatively has been fixed at IS to
$40 per square foot year for
display space. and $3.50 to $1,000
a year membership dues, depend
ing on type and volume of busi--
ness.
