The prospect Of plodding through nine

bright young man who has plenty Of ability
but very little money and who can set
himself . job In commercial life with no
further schooling. The natural result is q
declining tendency in native ability Of those
who enter the profession. The remedy n
to repeal the laws requiring prospective
doctors TO attend medical school for any
stated length Of time. That requirement
places q handicap on genius q premium on
mediocrity. because the bright boy Is held

test should be the ability OF the applicant
to pass the test prescribed by the board OF
examiners.
Another change that would greatly help
the situation would be to license midwiyes.
Ninety-nine per cent Of maternity cases
could be handled by midwves as well as
by doctors, whose time could be better spent
on other cases. Fifty years ago the midwife
was component part Of every community,

Argues That Cost Of Atlantic Pact
VIII Promote T0taiitarian Systems
TO the Editor OF The s,Ai

To the Editor OF The star:
Guns are OF greater Importance histor-
ically than butter" So taught the late de-
lightful Goering and Goeboels. However. our
Presidents economic adviser. Edwin O..
Nourse. holds a contrary belief, He pro-
tests against our huge arms appropriations
saying: "A defense program that Is guided
exclusively by the most perfect military con-
siderations may impair economic and
financial preparedness Or give fuel TO the
development Of q NTH column In our midst
and thereby undermine It's own effective
ness"
This warning is especially relevant 70 the
North Atlantic Pact which would add tre-
mendously TO our military expenses. The
comparatively small fgure proposed TO i'm
plement 1t "for the hrst year" is misleading.
1t covers up the fact that $500 900 600
worth Of our own military equipment Is TO
be classified as war surplus" and marked
down to q tenth of It's value before being
shipped to Europe. However. our Armed
Forces insist on its replaeement--which will
cost us more than s4.50o. 900 900
The economic implications OF this Pact for
Europe are even more serious. h-as Secre-
tary Acheson has said-European nations
will furnish between IS and 81 for each
dollar this country puts into the military AID
program" These impoverished countries
already are strongly infected with both
fascism and communism. II their produc-
ton is diverted into arms. how their nfth
columns will mushroom
Unless the Senate wants to prepare the
ground for this poisonous growth. IL should
not ratify the Pact.

= 1t Comes to NOTHING

little less than two years ago the
Department of Justice lawyers, perhaps
because they had nothing better to do,
decided to prosecute Washington realtors
under the antitrust laws. They filed a
civil suit naming the Washington Real
Estate Board, the National Association of
Real Estate Boards, and certain individ-
uals They also obtained an indictment
against the two organizations, the effect
being, by indirection, to link the individ-
uals-all of them respected businessmen of
the city-with the criminal charge.
Now this venture has come to nothing
The indictment was thrown out year ago
by Judge Curran, his view being that the
departmental lawyers had placed an un-
reasonable construction on the antitrust
laws On Tuesday of this week Judge
Holtzoff dismissed the civil. suit on the
ground that personal services are not COW
cred by the antitrust laws So the Depart
ment of Justice, after considerable ex-
penditure of time and taxpayers money,
winds up empty handed.
This lack of achievement could not be
legitimately criticized II there had been
any valid reason to believe that crime
had been committed, or even II there had
been any creditable evidence that the pub
lie interest was adversely affected by the
practices of the real estate men. But the
Justice Department has not been able to
establish either basis for its action and,
that being so, it is fairly open to criticism
for abusing its authority.
The civil suit, presumably the stronger
of the two complaints, was based on the
fact that the members of the Real Estate
Board had Stablished&standard commits
sion rates. This was done openly, without
any attempt at concealment, but the
department contended that the practice
amounted both to q criminal and civil
violation of law. The judges thought other
wise. In dismissing the civil suit, Judge
Holtzoff pointed out that the Government
had offered no evidence to show that the
rate of commissions prescribed by the board
Is unreasonable or excessive, or that the
fixed rate unduly or unreasonably restrains
competition between real estate brokers or
adversely affects the sale of real estate
ION the contrary" he declared, there Is
evidence in the record to the effect that
before the board attempted to fix standard
commission rates there was chaos and con-
fusion, resulting in occasional overcharges
on the part of the less scrupulous members
of the craft, and that one of the purposes
Of the board was to eliminate this unde-
sirable condition"
The Government lawyers took the posi-
ton that this was immaterial. It made no
difference to them whether the motives
were good, or whether the result OF the
fixed rates was beneficial. The mere fixing
of rates, they said, is Illegal of itself, and
violation of law.
There is some talk of an appeal in the
hope that the higher courts will indorse
this tortured view of the law OF course,
the right of appeal is open. But it would
seem that the Attorney General, after
these two rebuffs, would be happy to call
a halt to an undertaking which not only
has been a waste of time and money,
but which smells very strongly of sheer
persecution.
