Health Setup
In D. c. Is Hit

The District Health DEPART
ment falls far short of being q
model for the Nation, DR.. WAL
lace M Yater. chairman of the
District Medical Society Execu-
tive Board said yesterday. He
said this is shocking"
DR.. Yater referred to COM
ments made by DR.. Leroy E.
Burney, new surgeon general
of the United States Public
Health Service, in a telecast
last Sunday.
Under questioning by report
Iers, DR. Burney said the District
Health Department is definitely
not in the upper third and prob.
ably not even in the upper half
of departments in the States
and territories.
DR.. Yater said District Medical
Society spokesman have been
saying this for many years.
He added that the Executive
Board agreed with DR.. Burney's
later statements that no individ-
ual is responsible for the present
situation. However, he added,
now. when a change of admin
Iistration Of the Health Depart
meht is about to take place, Is
an opportune time to give the
incoming director of health an
opportunity to build on a sound
foundation. This will require suf-
ficient funds and the authority
to reorganize the department as
the director thinks best"
He was referring to the fact
that DR.. Daniel L. Seckinger,
present director. leaves Office at
the end Of this year.
DR.. Yater said Washington
doctors and the Medical Society
are ready to cooperate with the
Board Of Commissioners and the
new director of health to bring
the Department Of Health up to
higher standards.
"Of all places" he said, the
Nations Capital should be an
example for the rest OF the
country"
