Agreement on Reich
Rouses Hope Here
For Soviet Accord
British and French Shore
U. S. View Thot Chonce oi
Settlement Is Enhanced
BY the Associoted Press

Officials expressed hope today
that a new three power agreement
on Germany. bringing the West
ern Nations into closer unity than
ever before. may improve chances
for an eventual settlement with
Russia.
The agreement will result In the
merger Of the American. British
and French zones Of occupation
in Western Germany. with the
promise that military control
but not military occupation-will
be dropped as soon as the Ger
mans set up their own federal
republic"
The next move for q settlement
Is up to Russia. which occupies
Eastern Germany.
British and French leaders. who
have recently emphasized their
growing hopes for world peace,
evidently share the American
view that the German agreement
Is a constructive step In that
direction.
Chairman Tydings Of the Sen
ate Armed Services Committee
took the same attitude. He called
it a forward step" toward settling
the dispute with Russia over the
Berlin situation. Other Senators
saw in the plan a chance to cut
United States expenses abroad.
The agreement, announced yes
terday by Secretary Of State Ache
son and Foreign Ministers Bevin
and Schuman. climaxed q Today
period of diplomatic activity
probably unprecedented in Wash
ington's history.
Besides breaking the long dis
agreement over the former enemy
country, those 10 days brought
the signing of the Atlantic Pact
which President Truman plans to
send to the Senate for ratification
early next week-followed by re-
quests from eight member nations
for American arms and dollars
under the treaty.
The Senate topped these events
last night by giving its over
whelming approval. on a 10 to Z
vote, to another Is months Of
Marshall Plan aid for Western
Europe.
All these developments were
pulled together into a single pack
age by Mr.. Acheson late yesterday
at news conference held mainly
to discuss the German settlement.
Asked whether that agreement
might provide basis for negotia-
tions with the Soviet Union. Mr..
Acheson said that while he knows
of no such plans on the part Of
the West, he does think the new
situation affords more hope for
solution Of the East-West diff
culties.
The European Recovery Pro-
gram, the Atlantic Pact and the
German agreement are all meas
ures which mean greatly increased
strength In Western Europe. Mr..
Acheson continued.
It has long been his view, he
said. that the greatest hope for a
settlement in the conflict with
Russia was to I'LL with strength
what he called the vacuum Of
weakness left In Western Europe
by the war.

Believes Public
Rebelling

NCNOAAAAS
WASHINGTON AMP Whether
or not we as a nation are to have
a compulsory health insurance
program is a question to be deter
mined by the masses of the
people at the polls", said DR.. c..
Herbert Marshall, president ofthe
National Medical association in a
message to the members of that
organization last week.
He related:
"While I deprecate the intrusion
of politics on the domain of med
icine, I have to accept it because
there is no other out that seems
at all feasible. The profession
has only itself to blame. It allow
ed the pendulum to swing too far
in the direction Of specialization,
with it's exhorbitant fees, and thus
forced adequate medical care be-
yond the reach of a great major
ity of the people. The result was
a rebellion onthe part Of the lai-
ty against these high costs.
"The American Medical Associa-
ton has sensed the situation and
allocated huge funds to educate
the American public. The Nation
al Medical Association must &C.
cept that challenge and launch a
similar program among our
similar program among our
people. Pro or con makes no diff
ference so long as you are fair
in your thinkink and mature in
your judgement. Discussing the
subject among ourselves is not
sufficient. AS soon as we indivi-
dually arrive at a decision, we
should project our thinking into
the community.
"Time should be set aside in
our church programs, our forums,
clubs and fraternities for full dis
cussion on this vital subject. A
vote should be taken and the re-
suits made known to your elect
ed officials on the state and nat
ional levels. The Administrator of
Social Security, Hon. Oscar Ewing,
should be advised of your action.
This is good grass-root technique
and will grave most profitable"

Pollution Control Fund
Only Drop in Bucket,
Advisory Board Told

Funds authorized under the
Water Pollution Control Act. but
yet unappropriated, are only q
drop in the bucket compared with
the funds needed to correct the
Nations worst pollution problems,
the National Advisory Board was
told today.
James Morrell. deputy commits
sioner of the Bureau of Com
munity Facilities of the Federal
Works Agency. told board men,
bers it will require from $780,
900 900 to $500, 900 900 to correct
the more serious pollution condi-
tons throughout the Nation.
Under the act. he said, the Gov
eminent is authorized to bear one
third of the cost of abatement
projects. with the localities ap-
propriating two-thirds.
Could Reach 337 Millions.
This could amount to $67. 50e,-
900 a year, or a total Of 1897 $780,
900 for five years. This Is about
one-tenth the estimated cost OF
correcting the Nations major pol
luton problems.
Although the act became law
last June 80. it was pointed out
that none of the money has been
appropriated. Communities, it
was said. already are clamoring
for assistance in pollution control
Pere Seward. commissioner of
the Community Facilities Bureau,
said the pollution problem has
been made more acute by popula-
ton growth and industrial expan-
sion. He said the Federal Gov
eminent could and should have
taken a hand In pollution control
years ago.
The board. set up under provi-
sions of the act, yesterday dis
cussed Nationwide plans.
Technical Aide to Be Given.
Explaining the Public Health
Services part in the pollution
abatement program, Carl Schwob,
chief of the Division Of Water Pol
luton Control, said his depart
ment will provide technical assist
ance to local governments in
drawing up abatement plans.
He said the international water
commissions on the Canadian and
Mexican borders also will be
drawn into the Nationwide pro-
gram. The Army Engineers, Geo
logical Survey and the Fish and
Wild Life Services will be asked
to provide data, he said.
The advisory board, presided
over by Mark d. Hollis, assistant
surgeon general and chief sani-
tary engineer of the Public Health
Service. is composed of repre-
sentatives of the Army Engineers
and other Government agencies,

most optimistic observer that the
defendant Willie Talbert was

fear.
