Sick Hospital

The Star recently ran a
thoughtful editorial about D.
C. General Hospital being a
sick hospital" You agreed
with the four-month study Of
the House Appropriations
Committee that the hospital
itself has been as sick as some
Of the patients it was treat
ing. And you voiced the hope
that a new health director
would be able to get at the
roots Of the trouble and pre-
scribe remedies that will re-
store d. c. General to the good
standing 1t should have among
the municipal hospitals Of the
country. Already. this vote
less community has received
disturbing estimates Of the
price demanded to restore this
almshouse Of the healing arts
to its chronic social insuffi-
cheney: Professional consult
ants point out that construc-
ton now planned would cost
$4.303, 900. while the complete
reorganization deemed essen
tial would cost $7.067, 900. or
only $2.764.000 more.
Not mentioned previously is
the alarming disclosure that
our private nonprofit hospitals
have been warned that they
must stop accepting new out

pay their own way. These

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES {. TRACEWELL

Templeton Jones has often
advocated walking to work.
but how about running?
While he stands on the curb.
waiting for his bus. a slim man
runs past him every morning.
Evidently he was a long dis
tance runner in his collegiate
days. Jones. with the practised
eye of a devotee of track sports,
spots the correct head holding,
shoulders right, arms correct,
legs moving easily.
The man never seems to
work up a flush or a sweat, but
goes along at q neat dogtrot,
as 1t is called.
He looks neither to left
where the traffic is--or to the
right-where Jones is-but
goes on his merry way to the
circle.
The other morning Temp
Jones was fortunate enough to
find himself seated directly be-
hind this paragon.
The runner had neither
flush nor perspiration. He was
not even breathing in an extra
manner. What a man!
Jones thought that II he.
Jones. had one-half as much
pep as this fellow, he (Jones
again) would have been pres
ident of his firm by this time.
Much Of the worlds work is
done on physical stamina.
When you team 1t up with
intellectual vigor. you get q
potent combination.
The runner pleased our
friend no end by taking out q
copy Of The New York Times.
The right morning paper.
Jones thought.
The man turned to the book
review.
After reading it. he tore the
whole page out, and put 1t
away in his brief case.
1t was an action which fur
ther made Templeton Jones
feel at home with him.
To top it of, the man pulled
a book out Of his bag.
He could both run and read.
Jones thought, a marvellous
thing. indeed.
\
Running to work does not
really get one there any faster.
Jones. waiting for his bus to
take him to the circle, caught
the same bus there.
It seems to be wholly a mat
Evening star., 1957-04-26

ter Of what one can do and
enjoy.
Running is not for everyone.
1t demands certain muscles.
certain coordination. But if
one can do it properly, it is no
more than a good fast walk
to others.
So 1t finally gets down to
walking, for most.
Here, again, the personal
equation is paramount. Some
grow very hot. while walking.
and so tend to leave it alone.
Those who can walk we'll.
however, benefit from the ex-
ercise.
1t is about the best ALL
around form Of constitutional
exercise there Is for most peo-
pie, according to the doctors,
who are so busy that they
have little time for it them
selves.
They love to prescribe it for
others. especially those on re-
ducing diets.
For years the doctors said
take a two-mile walk as part
OF your dieting regime.
They said this even when
some experts" said that exer-
else. as such, did no good in
reducing.
Now the same experts"
have at last admitted that
exercise may be Of some
good in reducing. So the doc
tors don't have to change their
prescription.
4 \ 4
Walking in and around a big
city is no longer any fun, it
must be admitted. But per-
haps the stop-start business is
good, after all.
The idea of walking for the
sedentary is not Just exercise.
really, after all, but a mere
stirring up of the natural
processes in muscles and lungs.
Today's city walking is more
to keep a person natural, than
anything else.
To walk, is to be human:
whereas to ride. especially in
your own car, is to make YOUR
self a part Of soulleSs ma
chine.
Think Of this. sometime,
when you have a chance to
walk.
1t may take off a pound or
two, over the months. and
help keep you from the stroke
or heart attack we hear so
much Of, these days.

Mr.. Henderson will report toI
Secretary Of State Dulles this

at Washington National Air

gestions for dealing with the
problems created by Syria's re-
Gently accelerated drift toward
the Soviet bloc.
He said the turn to the left
in Syria will have serious
effects not only in the Middle

Pressures Indicated
Other State Department Of
