Armed Forces TO Get
Pathology Institute

Development of an Armed Forces
Institute of Pathology building
near Walter Re?d Hospital, which
would absorb facilities of the old
Army Institute Of Pathology here,
has been approved by a House
Armed Services Subcommittee.
The committee yesterday ap-
proved a .s350,0oj grant for plan
ming tie project.
Congress previously had au-
thorized s60o,000 to plan a new
Army institute building at Forest
Glen, Md. It was to include
1,0o0-bed no1pital.
Committee spokesmen said the
Secretary of Defense, however,
ruled against constructing addi-
tional hospital beds in this area.
1t was decided the institute should
be built in conjunction with an ex-
listing hospital. Under present
plans, the institute will serve all
services of the armed forces.
The present Army Institute Of
Pathology Building, at Seventh
street and independence avenue
NV. was constructed in 1887. It
serves as a pathological clearing
house for civilian as we'll as mill
tary units.
Before World War II, the insti-
tuition was known as the Army
Medical Museum, and the museum
facilities remain an important part
of the institute.
