Returns from the New Hamp-
shire primary last night gave
Washington campaign workers
their first taste this year Of elec-
ton excitement - and almost
caused . candidate for President
Ito be booted out Of the National
Press Club:
At headquarters for all of the
principal candidates. office per-
|sonnel waited far into the night
to tabulate votes as reported by
radio and news tickers. HOPES
rose and fell as the returns
trickled in. ~,
When the counting ended, the
happiest crowds milled about
suites in the Shoreham and Ra-
leigh Hotels. for there are located
the headquarters of Gen. Eisen-
hover and Senator Kefauver.
Taft Headquarters Gloomy.
Gloom descended upon head
quarters for Senator Taft in the
Standard OH Building on Con-
lStitution avenue.
But the most unexpected de-
|veloprnent involved Harold E.
Stassen. only candidate for Presi-
dent in town.
At the request Of two pfaotog-
Iraphers, Mr.. Stassen went from
his suite at the Willard Hotel to
the National Press Club to pose
for pictures beside teletype ma
chimes carrying the primary elec-
ton returns.
It so happens none of those In
the group holds membership in
the club and a doorman refused
to admit them.
"Rules Are Rules"
II don't care who you are. said
the doorman. rules are rules and
I'm here to enforce them"
Mr.. Stassen retreated toward
the exits but the photographers
persisted in their protests and
finally found a club official who
caught up. with the candidate at
the elevator. then escorted the
party into the club as his guests.
At Gen. Eisenhc wer'S head
quarters the teletypes were a
trifle hard to watch. and for a
reason. They had been installed
in clothes closet because young
women employees objected to their
noise. But the slight incon-
venience failed to diminish the
joy of the workers as the general
went into a substantial lead.
Kefauver Is Elated.
Senator Kefauver's staff re-
manned in their new suite at the
Raleigh until well after midnight,
glued to a. small radio. At one
point the Senator's administrative
assistant, Richard Wallace, talked
by telephone with the candidate
lin Concord. N. H.
The crime e-busting Senator was
lelated by his victory but ex-
pressed concern over his chances
Iof getting back to town in time
for a"noon speech today. It was
showing hard in New Hampshire
land Senator Kefauver was trying
to charter plane to bring him at
least part Of the way.
Taft workers did their vote tabs
ulating in private. They refused
to admit reporters or photog-
|raphers who went to their head
quarters.

|McKe|din Reported
Ready 10 Name Rollins
AS Attorney General
By the Associated Press

ELKTON, Md, Oct. 30.-Gov.
McKeldin finally has decided on
the long g-awaited appointment of
Edward d. E. Rollins, former
States attorney for Cecil County,
as Maryland's new attorney gen.
eral, it was learned here today.
Friends said the Governor called
Mr.. Rollins last night and told him
he was getting the appointment.
The formal announcement is to be
released by the Governors Office
in Annapolis for tomorrow morn
ing's newspapers.
The post became vacant when
he elevated Attorney General
Hammond to the Maryland Court
of Appeals September 16.
When Mr.. Hammond's appoint
ment to the States highest court
became a probability months ago,
the name of Mr.. Rollins bobbed
up Immediately as likely success
sor and all the speculation since
then has had him the leading
contender for the job and only
one or two others were ever men
Itioned.
Mr.. Hammond was a Democrat
and the appointment of Mr.. Rol-
llins puts Republicans in two of
Maryland's three top elective Of
fees for the first time in many
years.

Election Day 10 Shut
Banks, Liquor Stores
In Nearby Areas

Banks and liquor stores will be-
closed on Tuesday, Eelection Day,
in nearby Maryland and Virginia
So will public schools in Mont
gomery and Prince Georges coun-
ties.
For the voteless residents of
the District, however, life will be-
much the same as usual.
Liquor stores and bars in the
District will be open, so far asI
the law is concerned, although
some establishments close by
choice.
The District Commissioners
however, approved early closing
of the two inspection stations of
the Department of Vehicles and
Traffic an hour earlier to permit
employeS to vote. Other District
employees will be given time off
to vote.
The places where the public has
its automobiles inspected by the
District Government in Southwest
and Northeast will be closed att
pm, rather than 4 pm.
State Law in Maryland.
In nearby Maryland, all liquor
stores and bars are required by
State law to close until one hour
after the polls close, which would
make it 8 pm. Maryland does
not even allow the sale of beer
and wine during the day.
In Virginia, the State LIQUOR
stores will be closed, but bars and
restaurants may continue to sell
beer and wine, which is all they
are allowed to sell at any time !
District schools and all those
in nearby Virginia except four in
Arlington will be operating as
usual. Arlington plans to close
Maury, Clay, Monroe and Wood
lawn schools because polling
places located in those schools
would interfere with school ac-I
tivities. Polling places are also,
located in other schools in Arling-I
ton, Fairfax and Alexandria, but
they nave enough room to ac-
commodate both functions.
Banks to Stay Open.
Banks will remain open in the
District.
The District stock exchange
and all other stock EXCHANGES
across the country will close on
Tuesday. but some commodity and
livestock exchanges will remain

to make the doctor a methodical
and orderly person. He restricts
his habits, and he disciplines his
methods and manners. He must be
cool-headed and careful if he ex-
poets to succeed in his profession.
Since all these things have be-
come a part of his nature, it would
seem only natural when he goes
out in the world to deal with the
public, he would anticipate a like
return of courtesy and considera-
ton from those he serves. The sad
part of it is, he sees people at their
worst; when they are doubled up
in pain, or their faces knotted from
sick stomach, or frigid with
fright that some illness, real or
Imaginary will shortly end their
days. Panicky human beings won't
pause for a moment and ponder
little bit. If they did, they might
cody send for the doctor, then
wait more placidly for his arrival,
more secure in the knowledge that
frantic yelling and complaints a.
bout the doctors speed will do
more harm than cool. No one stops
to consider that maybe the doctor
is having to pacify a half-dozen
other patients; or he might be dog
tired after a night out with some
stubborn case or bringing into the
world another life.
But no, we demand immediate
service from the doctor; we COM
plain or criticise him constantly if
we don't respond Immediately to
his treatment. We refuse to be-
lieve that except in rare instances
the doctor is at his best as a dag
nostician, and can do US most good
if we let nature do the work of
healing. We are foolish enough to
believe that if he loads us with
pink pills, or something evil SMELL
ing in a bottle, sympathizes with
US and tells how bad off we are,
that we will get well. Far worse,
we believe that we can continue to
over-indulge beyond normal human
capacity, in work or in play or eat
ing and drinking, we can still get
well by taking a lot of medicine.
None of us want to admit that over
half the people who go to doctors,
have nothing worse with them than
their mind, which imagines they
are sick; refuses to believe the
truth and won't go away satisfied
unless the doctor doses them lib
orally with medical baloney, latin
names for what ails them, and
loads them down with tablets,
pills, capsules, elixirs and emul-
sions. Such folks, scared to death
for day or two, soon find nature
putting in its ticks, and they feel
better, quite confident the doctors
nostrums have brought til EN-
round, and in a fifty are back at
their old habits, over-indulging in
everything.
/ know an old doctor who got in
bad with a community because he
wouldn't give his patients drugs,
except in rare cases. For all their
minor ailments, he prescribed free
but liberal doses of sleep and rest,
and a sensible diet, for a few days
at least. But the public is not salts
fled with anything else but a lot of
costly drugs with topheavy names,
and woe to any doctor who forget
ting the patients mind is the thing
that needs treatment mostly, tries
to save them money spent for use
less medicines.
A lot of doctors get accused of
being tight on the dollar. 1t seems
The coastland times. [volume] (Mnateo [i.e. Manteo], N.C.) 1947-1959, 1952-03-21

against the doctor, outside of COM
plants about his professional be-
havior. Well, a doctor has to be
tight to begin with. He is usually
in hook to his eyeballs for his eight
or ten years of education, and in
most cases further in debt to pay
for lot of expensive office equip
ment, an automobile to travel in,
and maybe he is just getting
around to acquiring family.
Moreover, being an outstanding
man in the community, he is the
target for every appeal for this,
that, and the other, for which a
campaign is being waged from
time to time, and he has to carry
on his books a lot of poor folks
unable to pay their bills, as well
as all the constitutional dead-beats
and slow-payers he serves.
And now we come to the CALLING
part of the doctors life. He can
put up with much discourtesy and
lack of consideration, the I'M
reasonable demands of his patients,
their complaints that he isn't TAX
ing any interest in their case, and
isn't doing them any good. But
most important of all he has to
live; he has to pay his bills in the
community, he has to meet his pay
ments for his education, his equip
ment, or whatever else he may
owe. And he can't do it without
money. He has to charge plenty
for his work from the few who do
pay, to make up for the many who
are slow to pay or don't pay at all.
Funny thing, isn't it, that the
one man on whom we think we are
most dependent is the man we pay
last. When we get little money,
we usually make the payments on
the car; we buy something we have
had our heart set on for a long
time; we spend until we spend out,
and the doctor is the last man we
think of. Yet we continue to call on
him, for every member of the fam
lily, no matter how long we have
been owing him. In doing this, we
expect him to come promptly, as
readily, as freely and as graciously
as if we didn't owe him a cent.
If we would pause to think about
the long nights without sleep; how
often he is called from his warm
bed just as he has gotten in after
a hard day or a long and tiresome
vigil; if we would remember that
the doctor is only a human being,
perhaps with more education, but
otherwise no more sturdy physical
'ly than any other human; if we
would remember that not even all
doctors are endowed by nature
with the best of health and
strength; if we would remember
all the things that handicap the
doctor, and think about what we
would do in the same circum-
stances, we might be a little more
considerable, a little more cour-
teous toward him. We might easily
see that after all he is. above the
average stature-even something
lof the superman we pretend that
all doctors ought to be.
