TuberCuIar Veterans
Warned About Leaves

Tuberculous veterans who leave
Veterans Administration hos )itals
against doctors orders or are alb
sent without leave (AWOL) to visit
their families during the Christmas
holidays are endangering their own
health as well as that of their fam
lilies and communities, VA warn
ed today.
VA hospital officials are urging
relatives of tuberculous veterans to
cooperate in persauding patients
with an active infection to remain
in the hospital At the same time,
VA is cautiOning relatives that
patients must not be led to feel
they are mot wanted" by their
families.
Ordinarily during the Christmas
season, VA said, patients who have
progressed beyond the infectious
point and for whom a brief inter
ruptiOn in treatment would not be
harmful are given passes to go
home.
VA doctors said they would like
to reduce all leave-taking to an
absolute minimum, but they rec.
! Ognize that such a policy runs
counter to the desire of a large
number of patients to be with
their families during the holidays.
Milford chronicle., 1950-12-15

The large number Of patients
granted leave is, in part at least,
a reflection of the AWOL problem
which results when too strict a
leave policy is established, they
added.
A study was made Of the leave
status last Christmas day of ap-
proximately $500 tuberculous pa
tients on the rolls of S3 VA hos
pitfalls. Slightly more than 80 per
cent we're on pass or leave, and
for the month of December, 342
were AWOL or left against medi-
cal advice.
The need for continuous treat
ment is most essential for those
patients who require 81 or more
hours a day bed rest, VA said.
These are patients who are at the
more critical stage in the treat
ment of their disease.
To meet the problem, VA has
furnished its hospitals with q list
of methods used most successfully
to prevent interruption in the treat

Board Urges Pay Increase
On Shori-Line Railroads

| An emergency board today rec
commended to President Truman
that Is short line railroads grant
their incorporating employees a
seven-cent hourly increase as well
as 40-hour week with the same
base pay as previously earned for
48 hours.
The settlement proposal, ad.
vanced to avert a strike in scat
tered sections of the country, falls
into the pattern previously laid
down on the big railroads.
The workers, who are those in
other than train service, had asked
for 25-cent hourly increase over
their base pay. The emergency
board was set up in August when
management and labor could
come to no agreement.
