Quarters Called Unsanitary.
The quarters are on the top
floor of the old Crippled Chill
dren's Building and in an adjoin-
ing frame house.
The patients were moved out of
the lower floors of the Crippled
Children's Building, one of the
oldest hospital structures in the
District. into a new 50 million
building last summer. The prin-
cipal reasons cited by hospital and
District officials in asking for the
new building were the unsanitary
conditions and fire danger in the
old structure.
Conditions in the frame build
ing, or quarters No. 2, are about
the same.
Panes in two skylights in the
old Crippled Children's building
are broken out. Bats often swoop
down from the exposed rafters,
and dirt Sits down on the floors.
In case of fire, the vents would
create a strong draft, the staff
charged. Mice and rats also are
a problem in the building, they
complained.
Some Repairs Promised.
The ever-present fire danger Is
increased because the lack of floor
plugs forces occupants to rig wir-
ing from bare overhead light
fixtures to study lamps, it was
brought out.
The bathrooms. they said, are
primitive, and one of the anti
quated, slow-running showers must
serve as many as a dozen trainees.
In most cases, there are no
closets, and file cabinets and foot
lockers must be used instead.
DR.. Seckinger, in response to a
direct question, admitted he would
condemn such living quarters any
where else in the District.
DR.. Stebbing promised to send
all repairmen that could be
spared to. the dilapidated struc-
lures to redecorate and repair as
much as possible under existing
funds.

Residents and interns at Gal
linger Hospital have warned Dis
trict officials they must improve
living and studying conditions for
the house staff or face the posi-
bility of not being able to get a
staff adequate to run the hospital,
it was learned yesterday.
Long smoldering resentment
against conditions at the hospital
conditions the hospital admins
tration has no funds to rectify-
exploded last week when the Com
missioners' budget for the fiscal
year 1853 again failed to include
money for improvements.
| In a secret meeting Thursday
with Health Officer Daniel Seek
niger, DR.. Philip A. E. Stebbing,
the hospital superintendent, and
DR.. Joseph F. Fazekas. chief of
staff. the residents and interns
complained bitterly about made
quate living quarters, poor food,
low pay. and lack of library and
study facilities.
Some Have Changed Minds.
The house staff, about 125 in
terms and residents, emphasized
their principal concern was over
the future of athe hospital. They
pointed otitF that intern-recruiting
lis becomingly highly competitive
due to the shortage of medical
school graduates.
They warned that INDECENT pa
tient care would, in the long run,
be impaired because of the diff
If1culty in getting interns.
DR.. Fazekas admitted some po-
tential applicants have changed
their minds after viewing staff
living quarters.
The protest meeting was the
elimination of several months of
writing letters and making tele-
phone calls to District officials.
Commissioner F. Joseph Donohue
visited the quarters before the
current budget was drawn up. and
expressed interest in obtaining
better facilities.
Principal cause for the staff's
complaints was the failure of the
Commissioners to recommend a
$26, 900 appropriation for major
structural changes in the battered
old buildings where the majority

For his own part, Representa-
tive Beall has introduced a bill
calling for an Interstate Com
merce Commission investigation
of public transportation in the
immediate area. He is seeking
early hearings on his measure.
In this connection, the Airing
ton County Public Utilities Com
mission is completing prepara-
ltions for a discussion of Mr.. Beall's
bill among representatives of all
sections of the Metropolitan Area
Purpose of the meeting is to
prepare the public's case for a

Gerald j. Glassman, executive
assistant of the Arlington P. U. C.
declared yesterday that his board
lis interested in the coordination
of all utilities in the Metropolitan
Area. although at present all
efforts are being concentrated on
transportation.
"The transport problem is q
good example of the need fol-
joint cooperation" MFR. Glassman
said. He pointed out further that
Arlington residents must pay
higher gas rates than District
consumers. although both Sec
ltions get their gas from the same
company.
And there's a street in out
here along one side Of which the
people get substantially higher

added.
