By Chris Mathisea

The Capitol Hill food business
is sinking deeper and deeper into
the red. and some members of
Congress are finding it difficult
to explain this state Of affairs TO
visiting constituents.
The subsidy for eating places
in the Capitol and the Senate and
House Once Buildings now has
approached 500. 900 a year.
A concessionaire operates those
on the Senate side. The facilities
on the House side are supervised
by the Architect Of the Capitol.
The restaurant and cafeteria bud
gets do not have to allow for
space rental or utilities.
The House dining places are ex-
pected to incur a net operating
loss Of approximately $4,000 for
the fiscal year ending June 30.
largely because the pay raise for
Government employees added about
$24 900 to the yearly overhead.
The Senate's privately run din
ing places have been losing money
ct q somewhat lower rate.
The House has Voted O $47,500
subsidy to cover anticipated losses
In the fiscal year beginning July /.
But Representative Norren. Dem
ocrat, Of Arkansas, who headed
10 subcommittee considering this
and all other congressional
housekeeping" charges. doesn't
like 1t.

do not believe II Is right"
Stefan Agrees.
And Representative Stefan OF
Nebraska. ranking Republican
member Of the subcommittee
agrees. He said:
People who come TO Washing
ton like to eat In the Capitol.
We take our constituents into the
restaurant and sit down and buy
their lunches for them. Many Of
them think We get it for nothing
and they are amazed at the prices
We pay and the tips We have 70
give. And then. when they md
we have to pay out Of their tax
payer money to keep the thing
going. they just cannot under
stand it."
The restaurants. with waiter
service, are in the Senate and
House wings of the Capitol. There
are cafeterias there. too. as well
as In the Senate and the new
House Once Buildings.
In general. the cafeterias are
able to break even. or slightly
better.
But the restaurants have a
difficult time. An important fac
tor Is the uncertainty Of demand
depending on whether or not the
Senate or House Is in session on q
particular day. Another is the
fact that, unlike the average
restaurant, there rarely is oc-
casion to serve the evening meal.
According TO Representative
Stefan, restaurant and cafeteria

men have told him they could
make q profit in the establish
nents despite these disadvantages,
But William A. Brockvell. man
ager Of the House restaurant. Is
doubtful.
You may ind somebody who
can operate ii without losing
money. he admitted. but I DO
not think you can with the setup
you have today. would not
want il as my concession.
Representative Stefan thinks
by making all the eating places
cafeterias they could get by with
out q substantial subsidy. The
quality OF food is about the same
as IN private restaurants. as are
the prices. he contends.
Representative Scrivner. Re-
publican. Of Kansas. on the other
hand. thinks the taxpayer Is get
ting a fair deal in the subsidy
arrangement
If the House is in session. and
the members had TO go two or
three blocks 70 eat. then undoubt-
edly would be gone from the Capt.
tol anywhere from IS minutes TO
an hour and half. instead of be-
ing here and available for work on

said.
1T takes only about half an
hour to go down TO the House din
ing room and eat and get back on
the floor. When you stop TO figure

OF Congress gets. II he can save an

.5O% Drop in Sick Rate
Noted by Army; Navy
Has Slight Decrease
ey John A. Giles

Sickness In the armed forces
has shown . steady and substan-
tial drop. the surgeons general Of
the Army and Navy disclosed yes
terday.
The Army's rate of illness, which
remained around 4 per cent Of
all personnel over q period Of
years, now Is down to 2 per cent
and at many posts 1t is below that
percentage. Maj. Gen. Raymond
w. Bliss reported.
In the Navy, the rate has de-
clined from 81 per cent to 10
per cent, Rear Admiral Clifford A.
Swanson said.
Both attributed the declines to
preventive medicine and educa-
ton.
There has been q noticeable
drop In all types Of diseases and
the veneral rate in the Navy Is at
Its lowest point, Admiral Swanson
said. The use Of penicillian and
sulfa drugs has contributed to
this greatly. he added.
The decline In illness, along
with several other factors, has
lessened the demand for medical
officers to the extent that officials
no longer see the possibility Of
having to, ask Congress for au-
thority to draft physicians and
dentists proposal that was re-
ceiving serious attention at the
Pentagon several months ago.
The lawmakers refused to include
such a provision In the draft law
now on the hooks.
Need Lessened by Cutbacks.V r
The medical needs Of the Army.
Navy and Air Force were lessened
by the cltbacks in overall strength
In President Truman's budget. but
the military establishments con-
tinuing campaign to obtain more
medical officers also is beginning
to produce results. Gen. Bliss said
he was greatly encouraged"
More reserves are applying for
extended active duty and we are
getting more civilian doctors to
help in our hospitals" Gen. Bliss
said. $50 now the Army Is about
800 medical officers short of re-
quirements as compared with q
shortage of several thousands a
few months ago."
| Admiral Swanson said that
while the Navy could use some ad-
ditional physicians 1t was felt that
the number now was sufficient to
meet the need.
The Air Force, which soon In &c
get its own medical department
Is expected to be about 800 short.
Joint stating Of hospitals and
the common use Of facilities have
helped alleviate q part Of the
shortages. Admiral Swanson point
ed out that all the armed services
now were using common hospital
facilities at Honolulu, New York
and Norfolk, Va.
Station Hospitals Closed.
A number of station hospitals
including the one at Fort Myer
have been closed and the Army has
changed its medical organizational
plan to tighten up on the use oi
personnel generally. The organiza.
tional change, instituted several
years ago. is just now beginning
to produce results, Gen. Bliss said

had received waftime draft defer
ments and Government financed
educations to volunteer for duty
but Gen. Bliss said that this
method had not been too success
full.
The Army also has "circularized'
some $4,000 reserve medical off,

short tours of duty and Gen. Bliss
called their response remark

Sl00-a- Month Extra Pay.
Meanwhile. the military estab-
lishment is continuing all sorts OF
inducements to get physicians and

extra pay, and has been announc-
ing other benefits" frequently.
The latest Of these was an army
