Private Charities Urged to Help

basis.
The exact number Of these
offers is unknown. D. c. Gen.

Council staffers could inter-

Once suitable homes were Sc

chiatric experts which could
visit the elderly guests in need
Of such care.
The idea is a elimination Of

Miss Patricia A. Morss. con-

long range ideas TO protect the
well being Of the aged.

homes at 1914 Thirty-eight
