Health Council Opposed
On Hospital Planning

Commissioner Robert E. Nc.
Laughlin today asked the BOARD
'of Commissioners to override
the objection of the Public
Health Advisory Council to the
proposal that the council be in
creased to include three or -four
members of the Halliburton
Hospital Council.
The Hill-Burton group now
studies construction needs oil
hospitals and recommends tx
Congress allotments of funds
under the Halliburton Hospital
Act.
The Commissioner also asked
that a subcommittee on hospitals
be established by the Advisory
Council. Both motions were
taken under advisement.
Commissioner Mclaughlin said
he felt the Public Health Ad-
visory Council does not get
deeply enough" into the hospital
problem.
He warned against a great
concentration of hospitals in the
city without any overall plan

Police officials declared that
telephone and telegraph vertical
ton is often necessary when
dealing with fugitives, requiring
two or more messages to handle
each matter. On the new
closed circuit teletype the sigma
ture by call letters will be con-
sidered sufficient yerification.
The system is expected to
eliminate delays in settling
jurisdictional problems and will
join most State police agencies
and key communication centers
in participating States.
The system will be operated
in manner similar to the long
distance telephone, with the
agency which originates the
message or inquiry paying for

The :
Rambler
A No-Mun's-
In the Southwest
By JACK JONAS

If your steps took you
through the southwest area
marked for redevelopment,
you might wonder why you
didn't hear the air raid sirens
before the bomb hit.
Half-gone buildings, shat
tered windows, piles of debris
and gaping holes in the ground
complete the illusion that a
mammoth blast has done its
work.
At the edge of one pile Of
debris is a small ragged piece
of blue linoleum with a faded
yellow flower print, all that
remains of an ages-ago
planning for a neat kitchen.
A set of concrete steps at the
edge of the sidewalk leads up
to nowhere.
Some blocks are completely
flattened. In others, parts Of
buildings remain. In one, the
block bounded by Third and
Fourth and G and H streets
S.W., only two buildings stand.
One of these is a battered,
yellow brick structure marked
with the fatal white TX" of
condemnation. It's windows
and doors are gone, and above
the door-opening at street
level is a once-proud sign say
ing, Crystal Beauty Salon."
The other, standing at the
other side of the block, is a
small church. 1t is neat, re-
Gently painted white with red
trim around its windows and
4 well-kept iron fence en-
closing its tiny front yard.

A WRECKER'S SIGN near
by gives the clue to what Is
happening in this desolate
area of rs acres extending to
the Pennsylvania tracks on
the north, I street on the
south, Fourth street on the
west and South Capitol street
on the east. The sign says:
This Site Being Cleared for
Progress"
And in an alley close by the
white church, the impersonal
wreckers are at work, ripping
and tearing at a house.
AS they pull down a wall,
a room with gaudy wallpaper
is exposed to the street. The
wallpaper is bright as the
sunlight strikes 1t as if 1t had
been cleaned a few days be-
fore the wreckers arrived. A
broken rocker stands un-
wanted in a corner Of the
room.
Big bonfires spaced around
the wrecking work serve the
dual purpose of keeping the
workmen warm and getting
rid Of unwanted scrap. Odd
bits of lumber tumble down
from atop the buildings into
the fires.
Beyond them as they work
Is a block that looks as If
nothing had ever been there.
The hodgepodge of over-used
buildings is gone, the holes
are filled and the ground
leveled. Only a few gaunt
trees remain.
