District Plans to Ask
Congress to Transfer
Ownership to City

The District cannot qualify for
$525, 900 in Federal funds already
allocated by the city to help build a
new pediatrics and crippled chill
dren's building at Gallinger Hospi-
stal because title to the Gallinger
grounds is in the Federal Govern
ment, The Star learned today.
In a further attempt to get the
money. however, it was understood
the District plans to ask Congress
to transfer title to the city.
The funds were allocated last fall
from about $l,340,000 that will be
available under the five-year Hill
Burton Act to spur hospital con-
struction by both municipal and
private groups. Under the plan,
every 81 in Federal funds must be
matched with So on hand for the
project.
West Gives Opinion.
This was the plan under which
s59S,000 also was granted to Chill
dren's Hospital for its proposed new
main hospital building.
The difficulty in Gallinger's plans
came from a provision in the act
that construction sites must be
owned by applicants for the grants.
Since title to the site" Corpora
ton Council Vernon E. West wrote
in an opinion, lis not now in the
District of Columbia, and there is
no reason to anticipate that it will
become vested in the District of
Columbia, this subject applicant for
Hill-Burton funds must be
disapproved by the Surgeon Gen
eral"
To get around this point, Mr..
West urged that the District ask
Congress in its first deficiency bill,
soon to go to Capitol Hill, to con-
sider-for purposes of the act-that
title to the Gallinger land be solely
vested" in the District.
Sent to Budget Officials.
This recommendation, approved
by the Commissioners, has been
sent to budget officials for action,
it was understood.
If Congress fails to approve the
provision, health officials said, the
only alternative would be for the
District to provide the extra $685.
9l4 itself.
Meanwhile. officials have revised
plans for use of the Hill-Burton
money, as approved by the Com
missionerS last September, accord
ing to Henry S. Gavens, Health De-
partment administrative officer.
Last fall the decision was to ap-
prove ALLEGATION of 100000 to begin
construction of the pediatrics-
crippled children's building and a
new laboratory. Later, Mr.. Gavens
said, it has been decided to finance
the laboratory entirely with Dis
trict funds.
100000 Appropriated.
For the pediatrics structure It
was decided to use $298,110 in Hill
Burton money available last year
and S227,804 tff&t will be available
this year. Congress authorized con-
struction of the building to cost
s2,050,000, and equipment will cost
another 100000, Mr. Gavens said.
So far 100000 has been appropri-
ated.
The structure will have two wings
one for a three-story pediatrics
building and the other for two
story crippled children's building.
Oficials last fall abandoned earlier
plans to build a third story on the
crippled children's wing for the
treatment Of rheumatic heart dis
ease victims.
Meanwhile, preliminary construc-
ton sketches for the proposed struc-
ture left District Offices Monday for
Public Health Service approval. it

sold to date, he added.
Three More Floats Added.
Three more floats representing
States-but unofficially-have been
added to the parade, Carter Barron,
parade chairman, said.
Democrats in New York. South
Carolina and Nebraska have over
ridden their State administration to
enter floats. Mr. Barron said Demo-
cratic committees of the three States
arranged for the floats.
Gov Thurmond of South Caro-
lima, defeated DiXicrat candidate for
President in the last election, wired
that his States was not interested"
in entering a float, Mr.. Barron said.
Gov. Dewey of New York, the de-
feated Republican nominee, also has
notified the committee that no
funds were available for building a
float to be used outside the State.
Similarly. Gov. Peterson of Ne
braska declined to enter a float, Mr.
Baron said.
He said invitations to enter floats
In the parade went to all Governors
and more than a dozen have replied
they will have no entry.
Kentucky Going All Out.

OF its native son, Vice President
elect Barkley, expects to have at
least two floats and a steam calliope
in the parade. Mr.. Barkley will be
guest of honor at reception and

mans birthplace, and the District.
The float representing the District
will not be official The Commis-
sioners refused to enter an official
float after squabble as to whether
suffrage should be the theme.
A number of groups have joined
to finapce the Districts float.
One of these, the Central Suffrage
Conference of Washington will meet
at 8:15 o'clock tonight at TOO Jack
son place NV. to consider its con-
tribution to the float,

WASHINGTON - Some 10000
900 World War il veterans can now
figure out the life insurance divi-
dend checks they may expect with
in the next nine months.
Under the deceptively simple
formula announced by the Veter-
ans Administration yesterday,
minority of them-but a minority
of many thousand - may get
a maximum of S52S each.
For the younger ex-GTs, the
dividend rate is IS cents a month
for each $1,000 of insurance. For
those over 40 when the policy was
issued, there is a defending scale,
with a minimum rate of 20 cents
a month for each $1,000 taken out
5v a man of IS or over.
The top checks go to the 40
or-under policy-holders who (a)
took out the maximum amount

it first became available and CO.
retained it in full force for the 9S

Hears Address
By Home Agent

Miss Gayle Wells, assistant Home
Demonstration Agent in Columbus
County, addressed the Tabor City
Woman's Club on Thursday eve
ming at the Womans clubhouse US
ing as her subject The Importance
In Health and Community Ser
vice"
In an interesting manner she
pointed out the Importance OF
teaching the children sanitation
and malnutrition. She said in
checking with county doctors il
was learned that the greatest per-
cent. OF children's skin diseases
were caused from the lack of the
proper use of soap and water, and
poor health originates mainly from
malnutrition. 1t has been observed
in school lunch rooms that groups
of children do not eat meat or veg
etables, neither do they drink milk
which causes the deficiency of vi
tamins, iron and calcium. She also
pointed out flies and mosquitoes
carry worm diseases to children.
Mrs. David Kelley, chairman OF
the division Of Public Welfare, was
n charge of the program and in
troduced Miss Hiwathia Lupo of
the Columbus County Welfare De
partment who presented the guest
speaker.
Prior to the program Mrs. Hor-
ace Roberts, president, presided ov-
ar the business session and re-
ported on plans made for the years
work at the executive meeting held
during the summer. She announced
the club had secured the Pendle-
son's Art Exhibit for public show
ing in the near future.
Mrs. Fred M. Jernigan, Mrs. J. c,
Singletary and Mrs. Deland Leon
ard were appointed official dele
gates to the District Meeting OF

ergreen October /.
In concluding the business ses-
sion Mrs. Roberts spoke briefly on
the contribution Miss Lucille Bran
lette, deceased, had made to the
club, and clubwomen paused for
one minute in her memory after
which Miss Ann Brooks McGou-
gan read a poem she composed for
the club at the end of the first
charter year.
During the social hour refresh
ments were served by Mrs. Rich
ard Gordon, Mrs. Woody High,

Veterans, Here's How To
FIGURE .NSLI Dividends

Grams are believed to have kept
accurate records.
The dividend will be, paid at the
same rate on both term and con.
verted policies. 1t is not subject
to income tax. Veterans must ap-
ply for it.
Application blanks are avail
able at all post offices and vet
Grams oenters. Some 100000 al
ready have been sent in.
VA officials pointed out that
while the typical monthly pre-
MUM on term insurance at age
81 is SIPS for ordinary CONNER
,cial life insurance, that for Ma
tional Service Life Insurance was
65 cents.
Now the dividend rate on such
a policy is IS cents, making for
extremely cheap insurance for the
veterans.
Gray said the formula does not
apply to insurance on perma.
nent plan which has been. sur
rendered for a reduced paid-ur
amount. Such cases will be cal
culated >parately. ...:.
