Alcohol Tax Agent S
Custer for Drinking
Upheld by Court

The discharge of special agent
of the Federal Alcohol Tax unit
on charges that he drank too
much liquor was affirmed today by
the United States Court of
Appeals
The decision went against
Harvey e. Grasse. a middle-aged
veteran Of World War I, now liv-
ing In Chicago. Mr.. Grasse sought
to regain his job with the unit of
the Internal Revenue Bureau,
which had fired him in 1914 after
more than 10 years service, on
charges of intoxication, excessive
use Of intoxicants, disorderly con-
duct, conduct unbecoming q Fed
eral' officer and unsatisfactory
service"
MIR. Grasse appealed his dis
charge two years later. and the
Government heard his pleas for
reinstatement before concluding
that he should stay fired. His
appeal to the court was based on
his rights as a war veteran.
Chief Judge Arthur r. Lederle
of the District Court for Eastern
Michigan, who was sitting by
designation on the appellate
bench. ruled today that Mr.. Grasse
waited too long in pursuing his
appeals.
Judge Lederle, moreover, de-
clared that I'VE are not impressed
with Mr.. Grasses contention that,
by writing vitriolic letters about
his discharge to various influential
people after his appeal was finally
decided. he was acting diligently
in sincere effort to regain the
position"
Attorney Joseph Kovner, who
argued the Governments case.
said today the tax unit did every
thing in its power to keep Mr..
Grasse on its rolls because he had
been shot in the eye during pro-
hipition days, when his raiding
party was ambushed by noun
taineers in Kentucky.

Benefits Paid by CHI
In Maternity Cases 10
Be Cut Over 50 Pei,
ObstetricoI Patients
To Be Allowed FIot
50 q Day for 8 Days

Maternity patients enrolled in
Group disqualification, Inc, will
have to pay more than half the
costs of their hospital care start
ing next October. a survey by The
Star of hospital charges indicated
last night.
At present, CHI pays virtually
all the hospital costs of eligible
enrollees, including maternity
patients. Excluded only are pro-
fessional services" such as X-ray.
laboratory and anesthesia.
Under the benefit cut-back,
however, CHI will allow obstetri-
cal patients a fiat SO a day, for a
maximum of eight days, toward
the cost of their hospital care.
5-Day Costs Exceed $50.
Thus, if a maternity patient Is
in the hospital for five days, CHI
would pay the hospital $45. If the
total bill amounted to 500, the
hospital would bill the patient for
$55.
The Stars survey Of IA Wash
ington area hospitals affiliated
with CHI showed that, with one
exception. their present-day nor
NAL charges for five days of ma
ternity care in a semipriyate room
exceed $90-twice the $45 CHI
would credit toward the bill. The
average stay of maternity patients
in the hospitals is between five
and six days.
The exception was Freedmen'sI
Hospital which, operated under
the Federal Government, listed a.
$9-a-day ward rate and a $40 de-
livery room fee as it's only routine
charges for maternity patients.
GHI's' switch to the indemnity
method of payment, officials said,
will be held off until October /,
1852. in order that present sub
scribers who are pregnant will not
be affected.
First Case of Part Ceverage.
The action is the first instance
in which CHI has changed from
full-coverage type of benefit to
a fiat cash indemnity system. 1t
will apply only to maternity pa
tlents. The full-coverage provi-
sions will be retained for patients
hoSpitalized for other conditions.
Full coverage of most hospital
services also will be retained for
caesarian deliveries, ectopic preg-
nancies and miscarriages.
F. P. Rawlings. jr., CHI direc-
tor. said a basic reason for the
change is that "disproportionate
amount" Of subscribers payments
have been going into maternity
benefits.

Virginia Group Asks
Mental Treatment for
All Sex Offenders
BY the Associosed Pres,

RICHMOND, Dec. ga leg
islative study commission recon-
mended today that Virginia
courts be empowered to commit
any convicted sex offender to
State mental hospitals "for an
indefinite period"
Regardless of the sentence orig
inally imposed when the offender
is convicted, the commission said,
continued detention is the only
safe course" in some cases. The
commission is headed by State
Senator Charles r. FenWick of
/ Arlington.
Sexual alteration is a mental
! illness" the commission report
declared. and in many cases
such mental illness will respond
to treatment. Therefore it rec
commended that offenders be given
the opportunity of treatment at
State hospitals.
But it added that Gin other
cases the condition is permanent
and the only means of protecting
society is restraint for an indefi-
mite period"
The commission, created by
the 1850 General Assembly. rec
commended that the Assembly
appropriate any additional funds
needed by the Department of
Mental Hygiene and Hospitals to
make the program of treatment
effective.
The States penal Institutions do
not possess the psychiatric per-
sonnel necessary to work toward
Rehabilitation of the sex deviate,
the commission said.
It recommended that convicted
sex offenders be sent first to a
State mental institution where
treatment may be effected. Should
in the judgment of physicians,
the prisoner recover, it would then
be at the discretion of the court
whether to transfer him to a reg
ular prison to complete his term.
If the prisoner remains in the
hospital for the full length of his
term. the commission said, the
court should consider his release.
IF the court finds that release
would be dangerous then he shall
be kept in the mental institution
until the psyehiatrists declare that,
because of sufficient improvement.
his release will not menace So
Iciety," the commission recon-
mended. .
1t urged that sex offenders be
under maximum detention" in a
special section of the hospitals to
which they are sent ito safeguard
the other inmates and society"
Later, after treatment indi-
Gates beneficial results. the super
Iintendent can transfer the Of
fender to the civil section pro-
lvided he obtains the approval of
the judge of the committing
court" the report added.
The report said during the year
1850, total of 3.145 persons were
committed to jail in Virginia
charged with direct sex offenses
other than rape, while 429 per-
sons were charged with rape, at
tempted rape and statutory rape.
OF the 429, only 81 were sentenced

that the present list contains "a
lot of dead wood"
Heads Issue First 1000.
The first 1000 tags are issued
through the Commissioners, rather
than the Department of Vehicles
and Traffic. The Commissioners
themselves hold the first three.
Many of the others are assigned
to officials, judges, and others
prominent in the District and
Federal Governments.
The list has not been reviewed
for many years, Commissioner
Donohue said.
The Commissioner disclosed
the probable revamping move on
his weekly radio broadcast over
Station WWDC. He told report
ers afterwards he expects 80 per
cent of the present loW-tag hold
ers will retain them.
He said he already has had
some 20 requests, either from
present low-tag holders anxious
to keep them or others eager to
obtain them.
Mr.. Donohue said he was sur
prised to learn he was charged"
with the responsibility for issuing
144 of the low numbers when in
fact he had issued only two. He
was interested in learning what
was behind this.
Refers to Skid Chain Issue.
During his broadcast Commits
Sioner Donohue also:
Predicted the Districts new reg
ulation requiring snow tires or
skid chains on principal streets
during snowstorms will not mean
many arrests. He said he hopes
people will realize the need and
stay home if their cars are not
properly equipped.
Promised he will urge a pay in
crease for District policemen as
soon as Congress returns.
Stated the Commissioners will
stand behind their recent order
calling for integration Of some
Negro flremen into white units,
and expressed doubt that many
Congressman would oppose the
move lin an election year" He
added he would protest any long
delay in allowing the plan to take
effect. 1t is now awaiting con-
eresSional study.
