They Earned the Appointments

President Truman could not have made
judicial appointments more certain of Senate
and popular-approval than those of Judge
Harold r. Medina for the United States Court
of Appeals for the Second Circuit and of Thomas
F. Murphy for Judge Of the District Court OF the
Southern District of New York.
Judge Medina's careful handling OF the historic
Communist-conspiracy trial was masterpiece
of judicial hrmness, tempered by patience and
all-around wisdom. He frustrated q calculated
effort of the Reds to break him down. physi-
cally and mentally, and as result the leaders
of the conspiracy were convicted and their coun-
sci held in contempt. The ordeal which Judge
Medina survived proved his fitness for higher
judicial responsibilities.
Mr.. Murphy similarly earned promotion to
higher Federal Office when he successfully prose-
cuted Alger Hiss for perjury. He has done q
good Job as New York police commissioner, but
it is known that he has had his eye on the
Federal bench for some time.
Both men richly deserve the honors that
have come to them.

This and That

Templeton Jones says this last is not
always understood, but that If such
kind-hearted persons would put them
selves in the young birds place, they
would; the creature has few, If any
feathers. Its mother, perched over 1t,
keeps off both the cold and the sun.
The sunshine, he explains, is almost
as fatal to these young bits Of life, once
they have fallen from nest.
Sometimes they fall out through try
ing to fly too early.
Often they are tumbled out by storms,
either of wind or rain. or both.
Occasionally cat gets one, and the
others survive on the ground.
Whatever the cause, it puts the bird
out of the nest, and no species has the
ability to gets its own back into the
cradle.
The nest, according to Jones, is not
bird home. really, but cradle for the
young.
It is the most primitive sort of thing,
and yet beautifully adapted to its pur-
pose.
Templetoa Ssoss says that if birds
took college courses they pFU6ably could
do no better.
The system they use has been worked
out over millions Of years and should be
good by this time. It Is.

The NCAA has worked out q controlled"
television plan under which, roughly speaking,
one game in geographical area would be broad
cast. All others could be seen only from the
stadiums. The thought back of this is that
television cuts down on the gate receipts, and
that the colleges as a matter of financial self
defense have got to do something about it.
1t is also possible however, that the NCAA
plan may kill the goose that produces those
golden eggs. At any rate, the overwhelming

best thing to do is to put the fallen bird
back into the nest, If it can be found.
Sometimes it is necessary to put
cloth in a berry box, and fasten the
box securely to branch. then place
the baby bird in 1t, and hope the par
ents will find it and take care of it.
What often seems to be indifference
on the part of the parents is not, but
merely caution; if the watcher will
cease watching, the birds will return to
take care Of their young.
Jones goes on to say that II this can
not be done, the bird should be placed
in large cardboard box with screen
over 1t.
Water is given before each meal by
means Of medicine dropper and food
every hour during daylight. When the
bird gets enough. the throat closes. so
there is no use trying to give 1t any more
at that time.
Foods consist of yolk of hard-boiled
egg, hamburger and pablum, with now
and then a pureed raisin. These foods
may be mixed in equal parts, with
drop or two of cod liver oil to the cup.
No sand or grit of any kind should be
used.
II these directions are followed, ac-
cording to Jones, the chances are that
the baby bird will live and thrive. After
about to weeks 1t should be given
its liberty. These directions, he says,
will apply to ali put very few species.

Templeton Jones has q reputation as
an amateur bird lover.
Sometimes he wishes he didn't!
You see, it is this way:
Jones Is supposed to know so much
about our "feathered friends" as they
are sometimes called, that he even knows
how to bring up baby birds fallen from
the nest.
And that is where the trouble comes
in. he says.
All of Jones friends call him up to ask
what to do."
If a young robin tumbles from the
nest, Jones is the man Of the hour. or
the minute.
No matter the time, whether midday
or midnight, the Jones phone rings.

son on the other end is going to say.

he wishes he might.

Counteruttuck on Brown

It was amazing that The Star
should permit the use of its columns for
publication Of the scurrilous. defamatory
attack on the Joint Chiefs Of Staff, by
Constantine Brown, in your edition Of
May 81.
The integrity, veracity. good faith and
personal honor Of these distinguished
soldiers and gentlemen were impugned
by Brown because they refused to ac-
quiesce in measures proposed by Gen.
Macarthur, which they are convinced
would create grave risks OF provoking
World War III.
Despite their closely reasoned stand.
Brown represents them as willing
stooges for the civilian authority; pub
licity fronts for politicians; therefore, by
direct inference, spineless military jelly
fish, unworthy of their high positions
and untrue to their enormous response
bilities to the American people.
However, such an attack by Brown
is not surprising to any one who reads
the columnists. A man who will per-
sistently use his privilege as sup
posedly reputable writer to propagandize
for totalitarian Peron of Argentina, then
turn his peculiar talents to propaganda
for totalitarian Franco week after week,
might be expected to attempt to smear
and smirch his own country's eminent
Chiefs of Staff because they refuse to
be stampeded into a global war with
Russia.

An UnreoIistic Reduction

Unrealistic is the proper word to describe
the House approved $135 900 slash In the budget
estimates for care of needy patients in private
hospitals. The er-all reduction in the INDECENT
disqualification fund is as unrealistc as the $9-a-
day payment which the District makes to private
hospitals for this public health service.
The Commissioners originally had planned
to drop three of the hospitals from the list OF
institutions eligible for such payments, but, on
receiving protests from the affected hospitals
restored them to the list The estimate for fiscal
1852 remained at the $500, 900 level however. The
1851 appropriation was $685. 900 and the 1850
appropriation $745 ,000 Yet, during this period,
there has been no decrease in the demands for
treatment of indigents in the private hospitals.
Health Of1cer Seckinger testified that the num-
ber Of out-patient visits to private hospitals has
climbed from 5000 in 1s47 to 10000 last year.
The same arguments against excluding Prov
idence Garheld and Episcopal Hospitals from
INDECENT care are applicable against the proposed
reduction in service which the cut in funds would
mean. The INDECENT program is the base on
which the physician-training projects Of the
hospitals are built. Any undermining Of that
base inevitably weakens the training structure
and adversely affects the general public health
situation in Washington. The professional
standing of hospital can be seriously imperiled
by deterioration of the training program.
community without adequate training courses is
at disadvantage in seeking to staff its hospitals
properly
OF course, the hospitals could maintain their
training programs by making up the difference
between actual cost of treating indigents and
their allowances for this care from public funds.
But they already are being paid less than the
cost of this service-in some cases less than half
of the cost The District governments own hos
pital, Gallinger, is allowed $12.50 day for the
same type of care for which private hospitals
are paid &c.
If the private hospitals are to continue to
participate in the INDECENT program-and the
need for this partnership has been amply dem
onstrated-then they should be given adequate
reimbursement for their work. Without adequate
payment the hospitals must add the deficit to
the bills of private patients, who as taxpayers,
already have contributed to the care of the
needy Such double taxation of the sick who
are able to pay is manifestly unfair.
