Gains were Offset by losses of
900 in the service industries, in
fiuenced by a lesser volume of
tourist trade and the closing of
schools, Mr.. Hetzel asserted.
During the summer, Mr.. Het-
eel said employment in this area
is expected to decline slightly,
particularly in retail trade, be-
cause Of vacation schedules and
a five-day week.
Some slackening is anticipated
in construction projects, due to
the steel strike and the conse-
quent dwindling supplies.
Because of the closing OF
school and the large influx Of
teenagers and college graduates
entering the laborN market, there
was an increase of 1900 in the
number of unemployed in June.
This made a total Of 15,4O0, Mr..
Hetzel asserted. But he anti
cipates a gradual decline as
young people are absorbed into
the labor market or leave this
area to obtain employment.

PROGRESS BRINGS FLOOD PERILS
Rain Has No Chance
To Soak Into Ground

Friday nights floods caused by
rainfall he measured as 2.25
inches, were almost as bad as
the 5.25-inch fall of 1852, &C
cording to Bernard Frank, vice
president of the Rock Creek Wa
terShed Association.
The reason, he says, is the
growing amount of impermeable
ground that has attended real
estate and road development
causing the water to run off toe
quickly. rather than soak in.
On the other hand, Mayor
George w. Page of Edmonston,

Health Post Paw
Cuts Applicants

There is little chance of OBJ
tanning a competent admins
traitor" to replace retiring Health
Director Daniel L. Seckinger at
the jobs present salary, District
Commissioner David B. Karrick
declared last night.
The Commissioner, speaking
over the WWDC's Report to the,
People, said he has already re-
ceived about a dozen applications
for the job. He added he is wait
ing until August ! before he
makes his recommendation with
the hope that more names will
arrive.
Mr.. Karrick, who SuperviSes
health activities for the District,
said several medical associations
and colleges have replied to his
request for advice. saying they
could not recommend any of
their members or graduates for
the job because of the low salary.
$13.975-a-Year Salary
The Health Directors starting
pay is $13.975 a year. The Dis
trict Commissioners receive a
salary of $14,620 annually, al
though bill pending in Congress
now would raise this to about
$17,500 or more.
Afterwards, the Commissioner
could not be reached to comment
on last-minute news that the
Senate-H House conferees had cut
in half the proposed $4,000
sum to raise the salaries of in
terms and residents at District
General Hospital and $l4.500 to
replace interns on ambulanceS
with qualified first aid men.
Mr.. Karrick did. however. de-
clare that an extremely serious
situation would result if the pay
raises were not provided.
Only 35 of 54 internships at the
municipal institution are filled,
the Commissioner said. and the
situation will probably become
worse if money is not provided to
raise the pay from $l,545 to
$4,000.
Compromise Reached
The House voted earlier this
month to cut the hospital funds
out completely. Later. the Sem
ate voted TO restore them. The
matter was taken up by con-
ferees this week.
1t was reported that COM
promise was reached whereby the
total of $l40,500 was slashed in
half with the understanding that
the pay raises and the replace
ment of interns on ambulances
with first aid men would start at
the first Of the calendar year
rather than Immediately.
Mr.. Karrick previously has
gone on record as being strongly
in favor Of the full increase.
