recognized the desirability Of

favor Of q practical control Of

through the proposed new

Voter Rotins :
Again, District water carries

it as such, although the water
Is as good or better than that
of some cities with top billing
whose health engineers are
more concerned with the pres
ent caliber of the water than
any potential pollution poSsi-
bilitieS.
Mr.. Cary also took part in
the drafting of the code on

Sioners are finding impossible
to enforce because of its re-
Strictiveness.
In the licensing of the vari-
Gus categories Of housing. the
Commissioners are confronted

Even the court prosecutors
are recognizing that some Of

have been giving small viola
tors hauled in advice on how
to get by.
Assistant Corporation Coun-
sci Clark King has explained
this by saying that the big
operators know how to, cope
with the situation but the lit
tie fellows don't and should
not be penalized for it -
It's q situation that cries for

The st. Elizabeths Hospi-
tai story is with Us again and
just as confusing as ever.
Here is q completely Fed
eral institution where:
/. Three-fourths Of the pa
tients are local.
2. These patients are paid
for by the local taxpayer at Q
$4.90 daily rate per patient.
8. The city government. rep
resenting the taxpayer, has no
control over the number of in
digent commitments to the in
stitution. These are by, the
courts through the Mental
Health Commission.
4. The city government has
no control whatever in fixing
the daily rate per patient.
5. Because Of the volume of
local patients, the city is be-
ing asked to share the cost Of a
SIS million new maximum Sc
curity building and probably
any other new construction at
the hospital.
What you have in effect is
a hospital enjoying the pres
tige of being a Federal rather
than a local institution but
subsisting on local funds pri-
marily.
FowIer's Suggestion
You can't blame District A.
nancial ofiicials for looking at
this as a hole in the city's pock-
ct that they can't mend. 1t
prompted Budget Ofhcer Wal
ter L. Fowler some years ago
to suggest that the District
take over the hospital. For the
fiscal year ending July / the
amount paid to the hospital
will total about sos million.
Mr.. Fowler also took the
position that some patients be-
ing cared for at st. Elizabeths
at the $3.50 daily rate were
suffering from senility rather
than mental illness and prob
ably could be relocated. if the
hospital were run by the city,
in the Home for Aged at a
lower daily rate. Some Of this
is now being done as facilities
become available in the new
hospital at the Home for Aged.
On the other side, however,
Supt. Winfred Overholser and
his staff have succeeded over
the years in building an insti-
tuition Of the highest stand
ards of care and treatment-a
model for the States to look to
in their mental institutions.
There is no doubt that they
have been aided tremendously
in achieving this by their sta
tus as a ward of the Nation
rather than of the city. They
therefore are strongly opposed
to any suggestion that the
District take over.
The current proposal that
the city share in paying for the
new construction repeatedly
has strong backing in: the
Budget Bureau and the Com
missioners are indisposed to
make any issue of it. A House

date). the possibility exists
! that the question of reinstat-
ing DR.. Oppenheimer's clear
ance might be regarded as
moot and might be left In q
state Of uncertainty"
There was, some observers
speculated, another reason for
pushing for a review before
the end of this month. One
of the five commissioners. Eu-
gene Zuckert. ends his term on
June 80. He is considered q
supporter of DR.. Oppenhelmer,
along with Commissioners
Henry D. Smyth and Thomas
E. Murray. The line of rea-
soning here is that If a vote
can be obtained before June
80, it Is quite likely to favor
DR.. Oppenheimer. 80, where
as a vote after July with a
new commissioner in the pic
ture-would be nowhere near
as safe" for the physicist.
OF course, even If the COM
mission should vote SO to re-
store DR.. Oppenh h e inner
clearance. it does not follow
that the scientist would be back
!, In the swim. The commission
would not have to sign a new
contract with him, nor would
it have to use his per diem
services even If a contract was
signed. '''-'' -
Some political figures here
profess to see a grave danger
in what they regard as, caya-
lier treatment Of one Of Amer
ica's top nuclear experts. THE
effect on DR.. Oppenheimer en-
tirely aside, these figures ask,
what will be the effect on
scientists generally? This ques-
ton echoes the fear expressed
by DR.. Evans in his dissent.
Others who oppose the
boards findings and recon-
mendations look at the case
from a different angle. They
object to the emphasis laid on
DR.. Oppenheimer's lack Of
enthusiasm" for the hydrogen
bomb program. Does o Gov
ernment official or consultant.
they ask, have to throw his
convictions to the winds in
order to comply with a Gov
ernment policy with enthu-
siaSm?" Isn't simple, corScien-
tious compliance enough?
Such questions, it was clear
this week end, would be food
for thought In the Atomic
Energy Commission and else
where for many weeks to come.

Housinq

Another leaf from the Dem
ocratic book which has been
accepted by most Republicans
is blic-financed housing.
The Government first stepped
directly into the housing buSi-
ness during the Truman ad-
ministration after several years
of indirect help. President Eli
senhower accepted the idea and
has asked Congress for au-
thority to build 100000 pub
lie housing units in the next
four years.
AS has been the custom since
the first public housing bill
was passed in 1949, the House
was reluctant to go along with
the program. It was a close
fight this year but the House
finally rejected, 176 to 211,
a motion to accept the Presi-
dents recommendations.
AS has also been the custom,

The Future

What Das likely to come OF

It seemed practically certain
that DR.. Oppenheimer never
again would be at the epicen-
ter of American atomic af-
fairs. To regain that position
was not his real purpose in
asking for review of his case
by the full Atomic Energy
Commission. His purpose was.
to put it in q cliche. to clear

The United States is fast be-
coming a nation Of veterans,
so much so that today the ex-
CT is a major economic and
political force on the American
scene. This could not be said
of the veteran after World War
I. Then he was in a decided
minority.
With the addition in April
of another 10000 discharges
to the Nations list of former
service personnel, the Veterans
Administration counted an all
time high of 20.7 million liv-
ing American eX-GIs-ap-
proximately three out Of every
five men over 20 years Of age.
OF the total now on the
roster, only 3.4 million are vet
erans of World War I or earlier
conflicts in which this country
took a part.
Two Out Of Three
World War II and the Ko-
rean struggle. in comparison,
so far have produced 17.3
million ex-servicemen-two out
of every three men between ~
and 81 years old.
The mounting list of former
GIs has become a matter OF
urinary concern to American
politicians and economists,
many of them veterans them
selves. Veterans are voters.
They also represent a large
portion of the country's pur-
chasing power. But elections
and profits aside. the veterans
greatest value lies perhaps IN
the fact that most Of those
who served during the past IL
years are sufficiently trained
and still physically able to
fight again If needed.
The veterans rise to promi-
nence began in 1890. Until
that time the only benefits
available to the EXCL were
limited pension and insurance
funds and medical aid. The
program was administered by
two Federal agencies, the Vet
eranS' Pension Bureau and the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance.

VI The area of disagreement
among commission members
was small but significant.
Three members, all Demo-
cratic appointees, objected to
q provision making the chair
man Of the Acc the principal
officer" Of that group. Under
existing law, the chairman is
merely the man who presides
at meetings. He has no more
authority than the other
members.
Tne three dlSSenterS, DR..
Henry DeWolf Smyth, Thomas
E. Murray and Eugene Zuck-
ert, said the proposed change
would give one man too much
power-more power and re-
sponsibihty than one individ-
ual can handle. Privately. and
last week publicly. the three
men have been miffed by past
attempts by Chairman Lewis
L. Strauss to dominate the
board.
Despite that dissent, it
seemed likely Congress would
give the President most Of
what he wants this year in an
atomic energy law.
Evening star., 1954-06-06

a feeling among persons who
admire DR.. Oppenheimer that
he was being put into some
thing akin to double jeopardy
in being asked to go through
the security wringer on facts
that had already been thor
oughly examined.
One part of Mr.. Nichols
charges - QGGntitGtiUely the
greater part-had to do with
DR.. Oppenheimer's long and
close association with known
Communists and his apparent
one-time fondneSs for mem
bership in Red front organiza-
tions. This was the old part
Of the charges.
The new part-and qualita-
ttUely the more important
concerned DR.. Oppenheimer's
relationship with the hydro
gen bomb project. In essence.
the Aces contention seemed
to be that the scientist was
ag'in' the H-bomb.
Voluminous Record
The hearings that began in
April recorded 5000 pages Of
testimony and received a sim
lar volume of documentary
evidence. It seems agreed by
all concerned that, while the
hearings were held in secret.
there was little or nothing Of
the Star Chamber about them.
DR.. Oppenheimer was attended
by counsel, including the emf
nent John w. Davis (who
pleaded the losing case on seq
regation before the Supreme
Court last year, and Lloyd K.
Garrison. Except for some
secret information, including
FBI files, he had access to
most data, and had an oppor-
tunity to confront and cross
examine witnesses.
In q letter issued last week
appealing DR.. Oppenheimer's
case to the ACC itself. virtu-
ally the only adverse criticism
made about the hearing proce-
dures was that the Acc had
declassified some previously
secret material the instant be-
fore introducing it. This, OF
course, meant the scientists
lawyers had no chance to in
spect such evidence in advance

and more active support for ex-
servicemen led a few months
later to consolidation Of the
veterans groups into what
today is considered a major
Government organization, the
Veterans Administration, en-
ploying $4,000.
Not only has it become the
VAS task to administer to the
20 million discharges, but to
members of their families as
well.
A recent look into its crys-
tai ball produced the follow
ing prediction by the VA: BY
1855, World War II veterans
and their families will num-
ber about 81 million.
Economic lmpoct
Since 1914 more than 800
public laws relating to the
Veterans Administration have
been passed by Congress.
More than half Of them Of
fered direct financial. medi-
cal, educational and insur-
ance benefits to the former
GI and his family. With each
new law the Nations economy
prospered. Sales Skyrocketed.
Money was kept in circula-
ton.
Perhaps the greatest overall
effect of the heavy EXCL pop
ulation has been registered in
the construction field. After
World War the automotive
industry for q number OF
years took UP the economic
slack which often follows wars.
Since 1945 this country's
housing program has helped
much to I'LL that gap. The
veteran can take much Of the
credit. Latest reports show
the Veterans Administration
since 1914 has granted guar
anteed and insured loans to
8 million veterans for con-
struction or outright pur-
chase Of homes.
The veterans impact also
was felt in q related fleld
when. with VA aid. 205,00
ex-GIs purchased farms and
the Necessary machinery to
