Tours Scheduled Tomorrow
To Mark National Hospital Day

Most Washington area hospitals
will hold open house tomorrow in
observance of National Hospital
Day.
Conducted tours, lectures and
exhibits have been planned to
show the general public the work
of the hospitals and the advances
in medicine during recent years.
In proclamation yesterday, the
District Commissioners urged res
idents to join in the observance
and "Show appreciation to those
institutions whose dedicated serv-
ices reflect the high type of med
ical education, service and hospital
care which is available to our
community"
Continued high standards of
hospital care are possible only
through the community's under
standing, appreciation and support
of its hospitals" the Commission
ers declared.
Walter N. Tobriner. president of
the Hospital Council of the Ma
tional Capital area, acknowledged
the proclamation by saying:
"Our hospitals are truly appre-
ciative of the confidence placed in
them by both the public and the
medical profession, as is evidenced
not only in this public expression
of the Commissioners, but also in
the increased demand for their
services year after year.
He said the IL voluntary hos
pitals included in the councils
membership admitted 99,243 pa
tients last year, as compared to
p3,588 in 1949.

Senate Committee
|Ok's 18-Year Draft
But With Strings

Washington LPA)-Some form
Of universal military training and
service moved a big step nearer
Feb. Ia. The Senate Armed Ser
vices Committee approved the bill
providing for the draft of 18-year-
olds and extending the period in
ductees can be kept in uniform tc
26 months. But the draft of 49,
year-olds was carefully hedged.
Before turning to the 18year-
olds, the armed services must eX-
haust three other anpow
sources: able-bodied single mer
from 10 to 26; men from 19 to 2t
with slight physical defects con
filming them to limited service; non
veterans in the 10 to 26 bracket
who have one dependent.
Senate action will be quite q
while coming, however, for the new
draft bill won't be taken up until
the Presidents authority to SEND
troops abroad is disposed of. Ad-
ministration leaders don't want the
two matters to become intermingl-
ed Meanwhile, the House Armed
Services Committee was preparing
to tackle the 1S-year-old question.
Other provisions in the Senate
committees bill:
No inductee or enlistce can be
sent into combat without -four
months Of basic training. (But such
training can be given in an over
seas garrison or aboard a Navy
ship)
Seventy-five thousand 1S-year-
olds can be deferred annually dur
ing the first three years of the
acts life to go to college. (Sen
Morse OR, Ore.) tried unsuccess'
fully to up this number to 100000
may try again on the Senate floor.
National Guardsmen and Reser-
visits called to active duty will also
be liable for 26 months of service
Overall liability for military ser
vice of inductees is eight years
including reserve duty.
Until July /, 1853, the President
will retain authority to extend all
enlistments one year and to cal
up Reservists and GuardSmen.
The Senate bill will be a perm
anent statute if enacted. The pre-
sent draft law, which a new bill
will replace, is scheduled TO expire
July 9.
Aim of the bill is to build the
armed forces to a strength of g.
100000 by June 30 and to maintain
that strength. The l3-man com
mittee approved the bill unanim-
ously after splitting on number
of proposals.
Both the AFL and CIO have an
nounced guarded endorsements OF
universal military training, They
want the rights of labor and other
traditional American rights safe
guarded.

Voice Answers
Critics Of Eye
And Ear Appeal

Washington (LPA)-The Voice
of America, slightly bewildered by
charges it has both a CLEAN in It's
eye and a frog in its throat, wants
Congressional critics to take a loof
for themselves.
One of the critics, Rep. Walter
H. Judd OR, Mimi is well quail
fied-he's both a doctor and
former Chinese missionary. 1t was
Judds denunciation Of a State De
partment documentary film show
ing girls in bathing suits and jazz
players that started the rumpus.
The film, distributed through
Voice of America facilities, show
ed the annual music festival al
Tanglewood, near Lenox, Mass. II
features long-hair music conducted
by Serge Koussevitsky, but one
scene shows the musicians relax
ing in "jam session" and another
shows girls on the beach in bath
ing suits. Both scenes were insert
ed to counteract Russian propa-
ganda that Americans ar "down-
trodden, unhappy, boorish people
suffering under capitalism's heel
according to Edward w. Barrett,
assistant secretary of state who
directs the departments propa-
ganda activities.
Congressman Judd doesn't see
things that way. He thinks Oriental
women would be offended because
they don't display their charms
quite so freely. Judd is afraid
bathing beauties and jazz music
ians will give the wrong impression
of the US overseas.
Barrett didn't try to hide his
annoyance at the Congressman's
charges or at charges by Sen.
William ID. Benton Cd, Conn., that
"the Voice of America has frog
in its throat" Said Barrett: 81
want to knock in the head the talk
that the Voice Of America program
is spreading to the world lot of
frothy business about bathing girls
jazz and the like"
THE Voice and related activities
today are engaged in tough
hard hitting and unprecedented
Campaign Of Truth and the job
we are doing is one Of exposing
the phoniness of Kremlin Commun-
ISM" Barrett declared.
In reply to Benton's charges
Denton, an ex-advertising man,
used to have Barrett's present job,
the assistant secretary said he
would welcome an investigation
"as an opportunity to have as many
members of Congress as possible
hear our full story.

Phone Workers Denounce
Profiteering In Emergency

Washington (LPA) = Profiteer-
ing and power grabbing cannot bt
allowed in the present emergency,
the Communications Workers de-
clared Feb. 16.
In a 17-page domestic policy
S m e n t, the 800, ,000-member
union outlined course of action
for control of initiation, elimination
of speculation, wage and price
controls, mobilization of manpower,
rent control, and system of taxa
tion drastically limiting corpora
tion profits and individual incomes
in the higher brackets.
Workers convinced that sharing
the load prevails" could enact "new
miracles of production" the phone
union said. 1t recommended that
Congress modify or junk the De-
fense Production Act, replacing it
with a workable system of wage
price controls.
1t called for immediate establish
ment Of rationing and ceiling
prices on end products, including
the use of priorities, quality con-
trolls, and limitation on the manu-
facture of luxury items.
Other recommendations included
that: wage stabilization give full
weight to increased living costs,
wage inequities, subs a n d r d
wages and other factors; that pro-
ductivity increases be recognized ;
insurance and pension plans, being
non-inflationary not be included in
computing living cost increases.
Manpower be utilized to the
maximum point, encouraging wo-
men to reenter defense industries
and training and fully utilizing the
capabilities Of physically handicap
ped workers and workers from
minority groups.
The disparity between large and
small incomes be corrected by
skimming off a large part of the
excessively high incomes and their
stabilization at some level consist
ent with the needs and sacrifices
that must be made. This to be ac-
complished by sharply increasing
the tax rate on higher incomes,
plugging loopholes in the law and
enacting 100 percent excess pro-
fits tax.
,CWA President Joseph Beirne
charged that big business "has
taken over our defense effort and
snafu'd the entire program" The
situation can't be corrected, he
said, until labor and other repre-
sentative groups are given posi-
tions of real responsibility at
policy-making and administrative
levels in the defense effort"

Ships Minutes Vignettes
On Shipbodrd Life AT Sea

New York (LPA)-One OF the

of the labor press is the Seafarers
Log fortnightly publication of the
Atlantic & Gulf District Of the Sea-
farers International Union-AFL,

their shoreside union meetings. The
minutes are vignettes OF shipboard
life. Following examples are from

utes of the Jan. a meeting aboard
the SS Winter Hill. an oil tanker
belonging to the Cities Service Oil

and later promoted to Chief Cook.

any rotten fruit or vegetables that
come aboard"
From the Jan. Ia minutes from

seamen who drink too much too

Labor Aided In
Rehabilitation
Program For 1850

Washington (LPA) - The ma
tion's two million handicapped men
and women constitute one of the
few sources at hand to supply ever
growing manpower requirements,
the 1850 report of the Office of
Vocational Rehabilitation points
out.
The office, branch of the Fed
eral Security Agency, supervised a
Federal-State program that during
fiscal 1850 trained and placed H.
543 persons in jobs, a record num-
Der for the third consecutive year.
OF this group, 59,597 persons
were doing their jobs so well that
their cases could be closed as re-
habilitated. The other 1896 were
working on jobs for which they had
been fully prepared, but were still
under observation to assure their
complete adjustment, since many
of them were retrained for entire
|1y new jobs and others had never
worked before.
The report showed that the re-
habilitation program is paying off.
Before services were started, the
rehabilitants were earning at the
rate of SIT million a year on which
they paid little or no taxes. After
rehabilitation they We're earning
at the rate of $93 million. Of this,
they would pay $5.5 million in

can even greater dividend" the
report said, "is the gain in self
respect to the individual whom
vocational rehabilitation has con-
verted from a state of dependency
on others to one of economic indie
pendence, returning him to the role
of family breadwinner in many
cases."
Despite the gains of the past few
years, however, "only a fraction of
the total number of handicapped
persons needing services are gett-
ing them" Added facilities and
personnel for the program could
properly be counted as expendi-
lures for the national defense mo-
bilization, since it would provide
much, otherwise wasted, manpower,
the report said.
u"Since large proportion of
workers are not yet familiar with
the services available to them and
their disabled friends and relatives,
labor organizations offer a broad
field for dissemination of informa-
tion about the program" the re-
port stated. ggi,l5.3 s5Ae TX

DISABLE MOVES
TO OUTWIT
MEAT PACKERS

Washington (LPA) - Mike Di-
Sale, director of the Office OF
Price Sterilization, made another
move in his campaign to outwit the
nations meat packers. Up. to ther
at least the campaign results hac
been pretty lean.
The pudgy price chief issued ar
Interpretation" of his original
Jan. 26 price freeze order, declar-
ing that meat packers doing bust
ness in more than one location
must set separate ceilings for each
branch. The Interpretation order is
applicable to other industries, but
the packers were DiSalle's main
target.
Here's how the packers have
been beating the game on porter
house steaks and loin lamb chops
mot to mention hamburger:
They've been setting uniform ma
tional ceilings for each item every
where: one ceiling for leg of lamb
for instance, whether it's sold in
Chicago, Boston, or San Francisco
In setting ceilings this way, they've
taken advantage of loophole in
the original price order.
The freeze order simply said that
the ceiling would be the highest
price received between Dec. 19 and
Jan. 25, inclusive. So packer could
review his books, find the highest
sale recorded anywhere for a leg
of lamb, even for a single sale.
That was the ceiling. He did the
same thing for steaks and chops
and other cuts.
If he found he'd gotten 10 cents
more in some small midwestern
city than in big markets like New
York or San Francisco, he set his
ceiling 10 cents above the old New
York price.
Retail butchers in the big cities
have complained that wholesale
ceilings are above the frozen"
prices at which they can sell meat
to consumers, as a result of the
packers trick. DiSalle's office says
that the situation is particularly
bad on the East and West Coasts
where some retail butchers have
threatened to go out of business.
DiSalle's move may have been a
good one, but it was a long way
from checkmate, observers agreed.

Churchill Beaten

Of the steel industry and the hand
ling of the meat shortage.
The government took over the
steel industry Feb. Is, as the cul-
mination of siX-year battle, but
the changeover created scarcely a
ripple. What the government did
was to buy up the ordinary stock
of 92 firms making 91.8 percent OF
the nations annual output of lC
million tons, for $3.50 million, in
stock, redeemable in 1977-S0. In
terest rate is 3@ percent. Firms
making finished products such as
castings, wheels, forgings, tubes
pipes and wire were not affected.
The net earnings of the 90 firms,
employing 277,000 workers, will go
to a special account in the name
Of the Iron and Steel Corporation

the present firms will be kept, as
will the trade and brand marks; the
