U. 5. 10 Keep Consulate
In Hanoi Even Under Reds
BY the Associated Press

HANOI, Sept. %. - A new
seven-man American team will
take over the United States con-
sulate here on September %.
prepared to stay in Hanoi under
Communist occupation so long as
there is no formal objection or
overt obstruction.
What America will do with its
consulate here if the Red-led
Wet Mini do protest or obstruct
its operations apparently will be
decided in Washington and Sal
gon only when and If such pro-
tests or distractions develop.
Competent sources in North
Indochina do not expect such
developments in the first months
after Ho Chi Minis government
occupies Hanoi October 10 under
the terms of the Geneva armis-
tice agreement.
Thomas Joseph Corcoran of
New York arrived yesterday to
become United States Consul,
succeeding Turner Cameron, who
is being reassigned to the Saigon
Embassy.
Mr.. Corcoran will have six
Americans on his staff, none of
them previously attached to the
consulate here. Apparently, the
State Department wants Hanoi
staff that has had no pervious
connection with either French
authorities or the Wet Namese
government in North Wet Nam.

"a committee which has spear
headed efforts to place colored
physicians on the STATS CT all
District hospitals. He also Is a
former president of the D. c.
Medico-C hirurgical Society-the

According to an official OF
Georgetown University Medical
School. the acceptance of the
two doctors was made in July.
The colored physician, accord
ing to DR.. Mazique, has been
faced in the past with a shortage
of beds at Freedmen's and there
fore had to turn private patients
over to white doctors who had
memberships on the STATS Of
other hospitals. In effect. q
number Of colored physicians
have said, they lost" their pa

The NAACP said many Of the
hospitals without colored staff
doctors have received Federal
grants for expansion or construc-
ton programs. One aspect Of the
fight was that Negro leaders
would petition Congress to add
an anti-discrimination clause to
hospital appropriations.
DR.. Mazique said there are Gin
dications" other hospitals might
follow Georgetown's move, but
not Immediately.

within the scope of the question
put to Mr.. Martin. the fact is that
Canada is showing much more in
terest in Israeli-Arab questions
than it has done. For the first
time. it has opened diplomatic
relations with Israel and a couple
of its neighboring Arab States.
Before this, the only representa-
lion it had in this vital area of
the Middle East was trade
commissioner in Cairo.
Now, George P. Kidd of the
Department of External Affairs,
Ottawa, has been appointed
charge d'affaires in Tel Aviv and
will open the Canadian Embassy
there. The Canadian Ambassador
in Greece, T. w. L. ''Terry" Mac
Dermot, will also act as Ambas-
sador to Israel; this is probably
a temporary arrangement until
such time as the Canadian govern
ment is able to appoint a full time
Ambassador. There is no doubt
that the departments personnel is
stretched to the limit at the mo-
ment due to the number of Off
GERS it has had to send to Indo-
China where Canada is serving on
the truce commission. Meanwhile,
Israel's legation, which was open
ed in Ottawa a year ago, has been
raised to an Embassy.

Dear Major Moscovitz:
Some time ago you printed an
article scorching certain rabbis
who participated in racket opera
tons. In an editorial note you de-
Tended the rabbis of the Southern
territory, and lauded them gen.
orally for the splendid public re-
lations work they are doing in the
South building up good will be-
tween Christians and Jews.
There is, however, one rabbi !
know who is an exception to the
statement that you make. This
particular person has made a
small fortune for himself in sell
ing advertising by using the title
Rabbi to further his own per-
sonal promotion for his own pri-
vate gain. I have talked to a num-
Der of people who were duped
into thinking that his solicitation
was for the benefit of some syna-
gogue activity since ne used the
term Rabbi" in selling them.
If you print this letter it may
serve to warn the public against
such surreptitious conduct. Why
can't some Rabbinical organiza-
ton put a stop to this?
/ am inclosing my check for SIS
renewing my subscription for an
other two years. AS the only Jew
ish weekly newspaper serving the
Birmingham area, you deserve
everyone's full support and CO.
operation.
Sincerely yours,
