Hospital Aide

Commissioner David B. Kar-
rick has taken issue with a re-
signing District General Hospital
medical officers parting blast.
The city head commented yes
terday that he could not agree
with DR.. Lawrence Phillips "as-
sumption that all the difficulties
at District General are due to
the indifference and stupidity OF
others"
Mr.. Karrick said he was aware
of the problems and appropria-
ton inadequacies at the hospital
as well as in other areas of
District activities. particularly
schools"
Effective November 80
DR.. Phillips submitted his res
ignation as chief medical officer
of the admitting and emergency
/. service at the hospital to the
office of DR.. Joseph Fazekas, the
hospitals chief of staff. He
wrote that it would be effective
November 30.
Mr.. Karrick said the decision
of Dr.. Phillips, whom he called
IAN able physician" came as no
surprise. DR.. Phillips has been
critical of the hospital admins
Itration before.
II regret the method by which
he submitted his resignation, "
Mr.. Karrick said, however,
which the superintendent of the

health and I learned of in the
press"

The hospital, as a Public Health
Department institution, comes

vision of activities among the

DR.. Phillips resigned with an
attack on the "antiquated poll
cies" of the hospital.
He charged the environment
I"is intolerable if one is to retain
his self-respect. 1t is even more
degrading when one comes to
realize that this environment was
born of ignorance and thrives on

He said the board would not
be ready to make final decision
on the subject for three or four
weeks. but that the administra-
tive officers arrived at the oeci-
sion through process of elm
ination, when they could find no
other funds with which to build
new schools.
Advantages Seen
Mr.. Lowe said the plan has
several valuable features, among
them the possibility of complet-
ing new projects before the con-
stantly rising costs get too high.
He gave as an example the ex-
pansion program at Anacostia
High School. which he said now
cannot be completed until an
additional 100000 is found
somewhere.

was not too short-sighted, Mr..
Zellers said any planning for
District schools beyond five years
would have to be done tongue
in cheek"

Schuyler Lowe. director of gen.
eral administration, said he be-
lieves that if the District
launches a program of building
with borrowed funds, it would
be done on an overall basis
rather than just applying to
school projects.
Mr.. Lowe told the D. c. Leg

1t was Mr.. Richards, chairman

Committee, who warned last
week that if the administration
plans to reappraise the program
later this year Congress may
grant only a stop-gap authorize
ton to last until January.
Chairman George of the Sen
ate COMMITTEE, who first pro-
posed a study of the foreign aid
program, said there was a
wide area Of agreement" on
the need for it. He ,empha-
sized the study would have no
effect on this years program.
In addition, Senator George
told reporters, I'VE talked over
with the President and the Sec
rotary of State and the entire
aid program for the fiscal year
starting in July"
Long-Range Study Favored
He said there was general
agreement that authority for the

cluded in this years foreign aid

there was no effort to arrive at a

men on the House and Senate
committees handling the subject
Earlier in the day Secretary of
State Dulles told a Senate hear
ling the President felt any ap-
Ipreciable cut in foreign aid
would endanger the security OF

Before leaving late today for

of bipartisanship in this field.
Chester Bowles, the Demo-

the present administration has
not responded to Soviet eco

Mr.. Stassen replied that BIZ

it is working better than ever"
And. he added, there is STA
bility in the world picture and
with it economic success"
Mr.. Bowles contended Com
munist influence has increased
since Mr.. Eisenhower took Office,
and he said Soviet policies aimed
at economic domination must be
checked.
Let this go on five more
years. and you will have lost
most Of Asia and Africa" he
said.
Mr.. Stassen replied that the
United States will give the
Communists a reverse in the
economic struggle just as we
have given them a reverse in
other fields
