to pick up the blood at the

At $3.50 o'clock one afternoon
last week, DR.. Moses Paulsen at
Johns Hopkins Hospital in Balti-
more picked up the telephone
and called Washington.
Within an hour, two blue-uni-
formed women from Washington
pulled up at the hospital with a
supply Of life-sustaining serum
albumen.
In the hospital lay a 34-year-
old mother Of two children. Suf-
fering from acute Illuminating
liberated colitis. she could re-
tain no food. For the third week,
she was literally being kept alive
by the albumen.
The supply of the precious
blood derivative had run out at
the hospital, but DR.. Paulsen
knew where to turn.
His telephone call set of a.
clockwork plan in an organization
used to emergencies-the Ameri-
can Red Cross.
Police Clear the Way. |
In less than five minutes, vol
unteers Of the round-the-clock
motor service were on their way
to Baltimore with a police escort.
Metropolitan police cleared the
way out of Washington. The
Maryland State police took up the
escort at the State line, and the
Baltimore City police were poised
at the city limits.

Wednesday. It was only ,one Of

No Blood Is Sold.
The Red Cross does not sell
blood, although relatives of recipi-
Ients are encouraged to replace
the supplies used. In the case of
the woman in Johns Hopkins. the
serum albumen used over the
three weeks would have cost 2,160
liz purchased commercially. It took
100 pints Of whole blood to make
lit.

gram takes in the District and %
counties of Maryland. Virginia
and West Virginia. Forty hospi-
tails have their full needs sup
piled by the Red Cross.
7 Five hospitals here-Doctors
Providence, Garfield, Gallinger

that the whole blood supply should

Welfare Head Plans
.ChiIdren's S Iniirmary
For Use in Epidemics

A three-pronged invasion by
mumps, measles and the virus"
at the Industrial Home School
Annex has also infected the Dis
trict's child welfare operations in
the last six weeks.
BY necessitatfng a quarantine
that won't end until next week,
83 cases Of assorted diseases have
upset the schedule Of new inmate
admissions to the extent that 43
children have had to be assigned
elsewhere on an emergency basis.
AS long as the quarantine lasts,
these 43 children will have to
remain in foster homes or private
institutions. They certainly will
not be admitted to the home
school annex as long as the spots
and Jumps prevail there.
Welfare Director Gerard M
Shea said yesterday that such
periodic outbreaks of germs in
|variably "tie up the child welfare
division terrifically."
Already Overcrowded.
MFR. Shea explained whenever
the annex must be quarantined-
as it does at least once a year
it means funneling of waiting
children to other accommodations
which, in many cases, are already
|overcrowded.
These emergency replacement
problems cause a great deal Of
hurried searching around by his
staff. complicating already con-
siderable administrative head
aches, the director said.
BY way Of remedy, Mr.. Shea
hopes by midsummer to be able to
rejuggle existing accommodations
at the institution, $500 Loughboro
road NV, so that an infirmary
can be set up adjacent to the
medical clinic for isolation cases.
Houses 13O Children.
The annex now has separate
quarters for four age and sex
categories of inmates in four diff

dren are housed there at present.

pally to returning trial PAROLES

The District Medical Society Is
planning Q protest to Commits
sioner F. Joseph Donohue over
the Health Departments recent
and so far unsuccessful-attempt
to channel more emergency indi-
gent patients to Gallinger Mu-
nicipal Hospital, it was learned
last night.
DR.. Frank E. Costenbader, pres
ident, said the society has asked
the Commissioner, who oversees
District health matters, for an
appointment in the near future.
Specific reason for the confer
ence request. he said, is to pro-
test any attempt to send more
emergency patients to Gallinger,
rather than to one Of the eight
private hospitals under contract
to the District to provide emer-
gency care for INDECENT patients.
DR.. Costenbader added, how
ever, that officials Of the society
asked for a conference with the
view that the entire situation can
be aired"
Dispute Is LeRg Standing.
There has been q long standing
controversy here over how many
INDECENT patients should be sent
to Gallinger. and how many
should be cared for at District
expense at private hospitals.
The latest Health Department
move-a request that police and
fire vehicles serving as ambu-
lances take more emergency
patients to Gallinger rather than
to the nearest contract hospital
is expected to renew the con-
troversy.
DR.. Costenbader said ofiicials
would ask a reasonable distribu-
ton" Of INDECENT. patients between
Gallinger and the participating
hospitals.
I'VE question the wisdom of the
latest move by the Health De-
partment," DR.. Costenbader said.
"But we question as strongly the
Districts insistence that nom
emergency INDECENT patients go to-
Gallinger for treatment"

reimbursed by the city only for
treatment Of emergency cases.
DR.. Costenbader said that at
Episcopal Hospital, where he is a
staff physician, many patients who
are told they must 60 to Gallinger
for treatment fail to do so be-
cause Of the distance, or physical
inability.
Then they show UP, months
later, in worse condition"
He said that because of flnan-
cial limitation under the District
contract, Episcopal is caring for
about half the INDECENT patients
they were treating five years ago.
The argument over ALLEGATION OF
INDECENT patients between public
and private hospitals was renewed
after it was revealed last week by
The Star that DR.. Daniel L. Seek
niger. District Health Officer, had
requested Fire Chief Millard Sut-
ton to see that ambulance dis
patchers sent more patients to
Gallinger.
Such an order could not be
issued, DR.. Seckinger was told,
without a directive from the Com
|missioners. Under the present
order setting up the emergency
ambulance service, ambulances
are supposed to take emergency
patients to the nearest participa-
ting hospital.
Cites Rising Costs.
DR.. Costenbader attacked as
entirely wrong" DR.. Seckinger's
reported statement to the effect
that the District would save
money if more indigents were sent
to Gallinger.
"The cost of caring for an indi-
gent patient at Gallinger Hospital
was estimated to be $3.50 a day
two years ago." DR.. CoStenbader
said. THAT was Just an estimate,
and costs surely have risen stree
then. Yet the contract hospitals
are paid but 50 q day for each
patient. As a taxpayer, ] have an
interest In saving money"

gent patient load as possible be-

in their lot with India. A fur
ther complication is the fact
that most of KaShmir'S 4
million inhabitants live in a
beautiful district known as
the Vale of Kashmir, around
the city of Srinagar. Although
it is also mostly Moslem in re-
ligion. this sector is controlled
by Indian forces and has a
fairly cosmopolitan outlook.
How it would go in vote is
uncertain even to schooled
observers.
India's popularity in the
Vale region has been enhanced
not only by local good govern
ment, but by the visits of
Prime Minister Pandit Nehru,
whose family comes from the
region. Although he is one of
the worlds busiest statesmen,
Nehru manages to take time
off two or three times a year
to relax in Srinagar.
An ardent Ghandi follower
since 1920. Nehru was jailed
nine times by the British dur
ing a stormy career in which
he championed the cause of
Indian home rule and finally
became Prime Minister of free
India in l947. Still hale and
hearty at 81, the Indian leader
enjoys swimming and the
Western sport of surf board
riding. Whenever Nehru pays
a visit. the capital gives him a
royal reception, featuring an
aquacade procession down the
city's main waterway. with
hundreds of Indian style gon-
dolas joining in. The whole
vacation allows Nehru to COM
bine pleasure with politics, al
ternately relaxing and holding
political meetings calculated
to enhance India's position in
the disputed territory.
Far from being an internal
affair only, the settlement of
Kashmir's destiny is vitality
important to the Western
world. because the territory
holds the northern gateway to
India. Russian and Chinese
Reds are firmly lodged in the
neighboring regions of Tibet,
TurkiStan and Sinkiang, and
are almost sure to take ad-
vantage of any disorder which
might occur.
