BY John McKeIwoy

The old building is dead now.
The halls are bare, cold and
drafty. Dust is deep on a marble
shelf that held so many flowers
so many days. They were picked
for their brightness.
The sounds that come down
the halls are made by workmen.
And each sound means some
thing else has been ripped away
and thrown on the ground.
Ivy is still clinging to the
building, though, the leaves, have
fallen. It used to grow thick
right up to the roof. Then, you
could hardly see the bricks and
the little arches over each win
dow with keystone in the
middle.
The brick walk that leads up
to the dignified entrance with
the iron stairs is covered with
mud and debris.
Yet the old place still holds
on to dignity and charm. It al
ways looked more like a home
than a hospital.
This was where Children's
Hospital came into it's own.
Though the hospital had oper-
ated in two rented buildings
downtown from 1871 to 1878,
the old building that is being
torn down now was the first of
the collection of buildings be-
tween Thirteenth and Twelfth
streets comprising Children'S
Hospital. The building was built
in 1871 at cost of $23,662.
In Familiar Role.
It's being torn down, piece by
piece, to make room for an audi
torium and big parking lot.
The parking lot will be in the
same place doctors once parked
their horses or carriages. The
new parking lot will also be for
doctors.
The auditorium will be named
for DR.. Joseph S. Wall, who came
to the hospital in 1896 as a resi-
dent. He Later became chairman
of the medical staff of the hos
pital, the position he held at his
death last year.
1t was in the basement of the

that DR.. Wall used to conduct
an afternoon clinic. There were
times. the story goes. that the
doctor seemed unusually rushed
in the afternoons. When he left.
at almost q trot, 1t would be In
the direction of the ball park.
That same room with the bay

places, was considered unsafe for
hospital use in 1925. It was
turned into nurses quarters and
ofices. But when the children
left, the building began to die.
Their variety of noises have
since been filing other and
newer halls.
Rubble on battle-ground.
Where battles against typhoid.
dipfltheria. infantile paralysis
went on in the old building, the
rooms are now filled with rubble
and uprooted bathroom fixtures.
The reception hall where the
flowers always were will soon be
gone. And the three flights of
stairs patients were once carried
up and down will fall. Each
flight had shiny bannister per-
feet for sliding down, though no
one remembers any one ever
doing it. There were no elevators.
Now, before it's gone, the
old building almost bumps
against the sparkling new quar-
ters of the present hospital, a
stark contrast between the old
and modern medicine.
1t served its purpose when the
average cost per patient was A
cents a day, when an X-ray ma
chine could be purchased for
$500. when doctors left their
horses on the grassy lawn out
side. when nurses had more time.
The old place will be gone in
about six or seven weeks, those
in charge of wrecking operations
figure. It's just another build
ing to them.

AFL-CI0 No Raid
Agreement Signed
AS Step 10 Merger
By james Y. Newton

Merger of the AFL and CIO
was a step nearer today-al-
though still some distance off,
following the signing by top
labor officials of an agreement
that would prohibit inter-
organization membership raids.
AFL President George Meany
and CIO President Walter P.
Reuther, and the secretary
treasurers. William Schnitzler
and James B. Carey. signed the
"no-raiding" pact yesterday.
To become effective. the docu-
ment must be ratified by the Of
ficers of the $50 international
unions af1iliated with the AFL
and CIO. The unions will meet
here III early January for that
purpose.
This is the case-fire agree
ment that makes the peace con-
ference possible" Mr.. Reuther
said of the pact to outlaw raid
ing. BY the peace conference
he meant the discussions to be
held later relating to actual
organic unity" of the AFL and
CIO.
The meeting was attended by
the large unity committees sof
the two organizations. The COM
mittees will meet. again after
full ratification of the no-raid
agreement and set up small
groups to tackle the various
problems which must be worked
out in advance of merger.
Research stats will be en-
ployed by the organizations to
tackle merger problems.

since the big AFL-CIo split in

since the big AFL-CIO split in
1885.
But neither Mr.. Meany nor Mr..
Reuther attempted to minimize
the task ahead. They said that
literally hundreds" of problems
involving overlapping jurisdic-
tionS of various union and other
situations remained to be worked
out before there could be a
merger.
In the agreement signed by
the leaders. the AFL and CIO
pledge themselves not to attempt
to organize workers already en-
rolled in a bargaining unit of a
union on the other side.
