This and That

"He was known as a 16-hour day
worker whose chief hobby was his bust
ness" said the account.
And so he died at the age Of So years.
Whether there was any connection,
must be left to time to tell.
There can be little question that
modern tragic deaths Of popular figures
lead somewhere, though it is a question
whether medical men or laymen will
profit from an investigation of relation
ship between overwork and early death.
A recent novel opens with the scene
of top executive jumping into an
elevator and turning around before the
door was closed
It was sort of trademark with the
man. ....
But he died inside of a few hours.
One may wonder if it is worth it,
to be so poppy just to pass away before
ones time, whatever that is.
ITO die, or not to die" is an aphorism
most persons would choose to answer
in the negative.
It is wonderful to work hard, very
hard, but OVERRIDING is another matter.
And what is OVERRIDING. in This sense?
Here, truly, what is one mans meat
is another's poison.

an apartment, and seemed to be doing
nicely, until he decided to make some
more money by playing an organ at .

Economic DisIocution in VA

After extended hearings and study,
the Hoover Commission recommended
the transfer of hospitals and medical
services from the Veterans Administra-
ton to the Federal Security Agency,
This was part of an overall plan to
eliminate costly duplication of tax
subsidized health services and facilities.
Taxpayers are taking terrible beating
from overlapping functions in dupli-
Gated facilities. The Hoover Commits
sion recommended a true unification of
Federal health programs. A Nation
wide shortage of doctors. nurses and
disqualification units compelled efficient
reorganization. Eventually the total
cost was assessed against the same
pocketbook: Yours! This economic
dislocation was most pronounced in the
VA program. Over 80 per cent of it's
benef1ciarieS had non-Service- connected
disability. They planned thousands of
new hospital beds though they did not
have personnel and funds to operate
existing facilities. Many VA hospitals
were located not on the basis of need or
efficiency but on cynical log-rol1ing and
pork-barrel Treasury raids. The rem
edy requires political courage and in
tegrity. AS a veteran and the father
of two veterans returned to active duty,
sincerely believe the rank and file of
ex-servicemen will support President
Eisenhower's credo: We serve the COM
mon good.

He made more money, no doubt of it,
and was doing so nicely that he decided
to build little retirement house, as
they call it down there, behind the
apartment.
He and his wife spent hours select
ing the furniture for it, this modern

He died month after they moved in.
Here again it was impossible to say
definitely that he died because he over
worked, but that is what his friends
think.

He worked 10 hours day, and when
he caught spinal meningitis, he died

believe to this day that if he had not
worked so hard. he would be alive now.
The high spirited, energetic modern
man has thousand times more temp
tation to be active than the men of
past centuries.
He seems to be paying for it, how
ever, in relentless number of deaths
Of heart disease, strikingly often at

culture established by Bishop John Fletcher
Hurst in 1893 But he also has announced an

DR.. Anderson wants program of growth

buildings, new equipment, new facilities costing
roughly ten million dollars, the money to be
raised in a ten-year period. Coincidentally,
he hopes for faculty and student body activ-

The Middle Way in Austria

Occupied Austria, a country that has known
no genuine freedom since imposition of the
Hitherto tyranny in the middle 193Os, has
demonstrated again that the spirit of political
independence hourishes among its people, In
parliamentary elections conducted under the
shadow of four-power occupation-American,
British, French and Russian-some four million
voters have shown more conclusively than ever
their dislike for either the extreme left or the
extreme right in political philosophy
Nearly "a per cent of the total vote was
divided almost equally between the moderately
conservative Peoples Party and the mildly
liberal Socialist Party-a result not greatly
different from that of 1949 Only within this
overwhelming majority of the full vote was
there a shift of any Importance, resulting in
gain of six seats for the Socialists to give them
70 places in the next Parliament and a loss
of one for the Peoples Party, to leave them
with "a seats. At the same time, the neo-Nazi
Independent Party lost one Of its is seats, the
Communists lost one of their five, and three
splinter parties failed to retain the one seat
each of them had held previously. To the West
it was a result encouraging in its clear disre-
gard for threatening words from Moscow that
a vote not to it's liking might result in nom
recognition, or worse, in the Russian zone.
AS far as its domestic government is con-
cerned, the Austrian vote may result in a revi-
sion of the cabinet. President Koerner, men,
Der of the Communist Socialist Party, was
elected in 1851 The fact that the Peoples
Party held parliamentary margin prompted
him to ask Leopold Figl, leader of that group,
to head coalition cabinet. With the Peoples
Party supremacy now shaved to a single seat,
it is expected that DR.. Figl will be called upon
to name new cabinet group giving greater
representation to the Socialists.
In its external policies, the new government
is not likely to shift to any substantially diff
ferent course unless Russian reaction forces
counter behavior. For six years, ending in De-
cember, 1850, the four occupying powers carried
on interminable discussions of treaty which
would make Austria free and independent. The
Russian behavior in these meetings has been
described as "the classic example of bad faith
in negotiating" and recent reopening of the
conversations has made no more progress. This
latest series of discussions was suspended in
early February to allow the elections to take
place, and when or how they will be resumed
Is not yet clear.
Whatever the next chapter in Austrian
political history may reveal the recent vote
has confirmed that its inclination is to follow
a middle course in domestic affairs and to be
impervious to threats or Establishments to seek
its salvation in extremist ideologies

Benefit of the Doubt

Dr. Robert L. Johnson president Of Temple
University, has taken a sensible stand on Sena-
tor McCarthy's investigation OF the Voice Of
America. DR.. Johnson, who is to become the
new director Of the Voice, has this to say: "I'm
willing to give Senator Mccarthy the benefit
Of the doubt. think he is trying to be helpful
and maybe he'll dig up stuff that will be very
helpful to u.s."
It Is possible that DR.. Johnson will be
diSillusioned as the investigation proceeds. For
If 1t Is conducted with disregard for proper
procedures it can do more harm than good.
There is wisdom, however, in refusing to adopt
an attitude of automatic opposition to the
inquiry simply because it is headed by Senator
Mccarthy. The Wisconsin Senator was able,
during the Tydings investigation, to make
much capital out of the claim that he was
denied access to files and records which would
have enabled him to prove" his various charges
with respect to Communists in the State De-
partment. In actual fact he proved very little.
He was quite successful, however, in convincing
large number of people that he would have
proved all or most of his charges had he been
given access to files which he had not seen but
which he said contained the proof.
In this respect it would be mistake now
to be put in the position of trying to block or
hamper the Senator's investigation If there
are things that are wrong with the operation
of the Voice they ought to be exposed and cor
rected. If there is nothing of any consequence
that is wrong, the Voice officials have little to
fear from the investigation. For they can
disarm Senator Mccarthy by cooperating with
him in every reasonable way. To try to obstruct
him. would merely put new weapon in his
hands.
Another development in the field of Senate
investigations is the statement by Senator
Jenner in connection with the probe of COM
muniSm in the schools by the Senate Internal
Security Subcommittee. On his record there is
considerable risk in giving Senator Jenner the
benefit of the doubt so far as the character of
his inquiry is concerned. He has made two
statements, however, which are worthy of notice.
He said that his subcommittee has "over-
whelming evidence :. that there is a small but
dangerous group of teachers in our schools and
colleges" which is operated from Moscow
through the Soviet disciplinary organs in this
country. He has also said that "our committee
is not concerned with telling the leaders of our
schools and colleges what to teach or how to
teach"
Since Senator Jenner has volunteered these
statements, he should be held to them His
investigation will be judged by the extent to
which the Overwhelming evidence" of which
he spoke is produced, and by the faithfulnesS
with which his committee adheres to the i'm
plicit promise not to interfere with what is
taught or how it is taught.

Mr.. Mckay on 'TideIonds'

Secretary of the Interior Mckay has taken
an eminently sound position on the question of
legislation to settle the so-called "tidelands"
issue. 1t is a position completely consistent
with President ESenhowerS campaign pledge in
favor of quitclaiming to the adjacent States
"all submerged lands and resources beneath
inland and offshore waters which lie within
historic State boundaries"
In line with this pledge Mr.. Mckay has
told the Senate Interior Committee that the
administration advocates prompt enactment of
bill that will not only provide for such a
quitclaim but also make clear that all of the
revenues from oil and gas deposits beyond the
historic State boundaries" are to 60 to the
Nation as whole. In other words the States
are to get no more than what they can rightly
lay claim to in the offshore lands within their
seward borders.
Since between 10 and 80 per cent of all the
countrys offShore wealth is believed to be in the
continental shelf beyond those borders Q0h
miles out in the case of Texas and Florida and
SE miles out in the case of the others), the
administrations position may not please some
members of Congress representing the States
chiefly affected. They may try to get special
percentage "cut-in" for their States in the
area outside the historic boundaries. But they
will be on weak ground if they do try it.
This is so because the coastal States though
they have been right in insisting on quitclaim
legislation for the submerged lands within their
historic seward boundaries, are no more
entitled to special privilege in the area beyond
those boundaries than is any inland State
That area, as Mr.. Mckay has said, should be
regarded as belonging to the entire Nation, and
President Eisenhower has done well in urging
through his Interior Secretary-that Congress
enact a bill that leaves no room for doubt on
that score.

Sound Hospital Program

With the aid OF professional advisory
committee the Commissioners have prepared
Tor congressional approval municipal hospital
Improvement program designed to stretch
health dollars as far as possible It is pleasantly
surprising to note that the hospitals and clinics
included in the eight-year building schedule
provide more facilities than had been con-
templated by the advisory group-at less cost.
This legerdemain was made possible by revising
plans for Gallinger Hospital
Confusion over the extent of the proposed
improvements at Glenn Dale Sanatorium has
been settled by the Commissioners in favor of
Glenn Dale. The advisory committee composed
largely OF doctors, had recommended 40O-bed
ADDITION to the tuberculosis hospital at a cost
Of about $12 million. Through a misunder-
standing, the Commissioners had announced
that the committee had recommended an 300
bed building as District officials originally had
advocated. Now the Commissioners have come
out definitely in favor of the 8O0-bed structure
at total cost of nearly SIS million. The larger
building will result in operational and main
tenance economies, in addition to providing
adequate facilities for treatment of Washing
tons tuberculosis patients.
Another misunderstanding in connection
with the advisory report has been cleared up.
Although the Commissioners previously had
announced enormously that the report recon-
mended construction of four health centers,
the final hospital section to be included in the
public works program calls for the centers-one
each in the Central Northwest, AnacoStia,
Kenilworth and the Northeast. These centers
long have been urged by District health
authorities.
To offset the increased cost of the hospital
program, the Commissioners eliminated So
million allotment for general hospital building
at Gallinger to be used at the outset as tempo
rary center for recuperating tuberculosis victims
Instead new administrative building would
be used for this purpose until Glenn Dale is
able to take over the load. Both the Commits
Sioners and the advisory group were agreed that
public safety requires the disqualification of
t.b. patients who now are free to circulate in
the city and its environs This is health
hazard that ought to be corrected at the earliest
opportunity.

The La Follettes of Wisconsin wrote a
chapter in American politics that lives now
only as tradition. Young Bob" was a part
of that tradition. But in the hour of his tragic
death, it is not the political tradition but a
certain gentleness, gallantry and humility in
his character as man that is treasured as
the personal memory of those who knew him.
He fought cleanly and vigorously for what he
believed and defeat never robbed him of grace
or dignity.
