Last of the Yeotses

1t is fortunate thing to enjoy mem
bership in gifted family most fortunate
to be the households most gifted member.
The latter was a distinction denied to
Jack Yeats, the Dublin painter, who has
just died at the age of Sc. In the di-
mansions of both his art and his reputa-
ton, Jack Yeats was outshone by his poet
brother, William Butler.
Nevertheless, Painter Yeats was ex-
hibited in many of the worlds major art
centerS, among his many showings being
one here at the Phillips Gallery few
years ago. He was man of charm and
vision, nimbly intelligent and true Irish
man in his gift of conversation.
1t was the won't of critics to label
him incurably romantic but to add, in
tribute to the Yeats family's eloquence,
that his pictures we're painted poems.

Hospitals Shortchonqed

How private hospitals here are being
shortchanged by the District govern
ment in connection with payments for
the care of INDECENT patients has been
described in testimony before a House
Appropriations subcommittee. There is
no news of course, in the fact that the
hospitals have been losing money on the
INDECENT program for years. But there is
news in the fact that the losses have been
growing greater with the rise in costs of
oSpitalization-unti today they consti-
tute serious and wholly unjust burden
on the eight hospitals involved.
Because the treatment of INDECENT
patients, under District government
contract is both community service and
a means of promoting the training Of
doctors and hospital personnel, the pri-
vate hospitals have been willing in the
past to shoulder part of the cost. How
ever, the disparity between the cost of
treatment and the reimbursement re-
ceived from the District government has
widened greatly in recent years. Although
It now costs an average Of S2750 day
to treat each INDECENT, the present rate Of
reimbursement is only $l4 a day. Chill
drens Hospital, alone, has lost 81 $4,000
since 1949 because of such underpay-
mentS.
The District Health Department,
moved by the unfairness of the present
rate, recommended in its new budget an
increase in the payment from $l4 to
$3.50, which was the daily cost Of treat
Ing indgents at the District General Hos
pitaLas of June 80, 1855. But the Com

Fair CHALLENGE

The Kremlin continues to call for an
immediate ban, if only temporary" one,
on all testing of nuclear and thermo-
nuclear weapons. However, although this
may make for effective propaganda in
some areas of the world there is ample
reason to regard it as thoroughly inSin-
cere proposal.
This is so because the Soviet Union,
in advocating such a ban, persiStently
refuses to accept the idea of special
international arrangements designed to
make sure of the bans effectiveness. The
refusal speaks for itself. Certainly, as
long as they adhere to it, the men of the
Kremlin cannot expect the West to take
anything but suspicious view of what
they propose. If they are really in earnest
about the matter, why is it that they
so stubbornly fight shy of an agreement
to police the prohibition they have been
clamoring for?
Perhaps the answer can be found
in the fact that there is still some uncer-
tainty, despite the popular impression
to the contrary, about whether or not
all tests of atomic weapons and hydrogen
bombs are automatically detachable.
Although the Vests worldwide moni-
toring system serves as an excellent
watchdog. experts are by no means sure
that 1t is foolproof enough to record
every experimental defamation set of
within the vast expanse of the USSR.
Hence, since this doubt Is a real one,
there is ground for suSpecting Russia's
leaders, when they advocate a ban on
such explosions but insist at the same
time that 1t should be in no way
supervised.
In answer to this, Harold StasSen,
who is representing the United States
as the Presidents special aide at the
current London talks of the United Ma
tons Disarmament Subcommittee, has
submitted new American proposal.
Taking note of doubts about the relia-
bility of the monitoring system. the pro-
poSal affirmS our country's readiness to
stop or limit atomic-hydrogen testing
If certain basic conditions are met. These
conditions, among others, would require
the Soviet Union ~ to exchange with
us information on all experimental nu-
clear detonations in the past two years
and (2) to allow a type of inspection
that would insure against violations or
evasions of the ban agreement.
Here is fair challenge. If Nikita
KhruShchev and his colleagues are genu-
inely anxious to put an end to A and H
tests, they will give reasonably aff1rma-
tive response to the ideas set forth by
Mr.. Stassen. Otherwise their insincerity
should become self-evident to every lit
crate adult everywhere in the world.

What Comes Naturally

The Senate was doing what comes
naturally" when it scorned economy in
passing a SIS billion rivers and harbors
bill. Year in and year out this so-called
pork barrel legislation slides easily
through corresponding, as Senator
Douglas of Illinois Indignantly told his
colleagues, "a little in it for everybody
and lot in it for somebody" Probably
IN no other catch-all measure is there
more joyous -.logrolling" as members
vote authorizations for expenditures in
the Jurisdictions of their distinguished"
friends-alwayS in the happy expectation
that the friends will be reciprocally
generous
1t was just the same this time, or
perhaps little worse. For the Senate
not only beat back several economy pro-
posals-including one to send the bill
back to committee with instructions that
it be cut by $3.50 million-it went
on from there to add another S194 mil
lion on the floor. The major economy
move was defeated by So to 81 and only
an uncounted few raised their voices
in favor of a proposal that President
Eisenhower should submit a priority list
that would permit discarding some of
the projects
Who will dispute the Presidents re-
cent news-conference remarks when he
said: But take the vast number or the
great number of public works that are
authorized without proper engineering
studies to back them up. Congress author
ICES them. Why? 1t must be for political
purposes"

Beck Suspension

The .AFL-CIO executive council has
not wasted any time in lowering the boom
on Dave Beck, president of the Transfers
Union. He has been suspended as a coun-
Gil member and as an ALL CLIO vice pres
ident, and charges against him, which
could lead to a more drastic penalty, are
to be prepared and filed. Mr. Beck pre-
Sumably will get an opportunity to defend
himself at a hearing set for May co.
Meanwhile, the free-wheeling Team
ster boss, who is never at loss for words
except when testifying under oath, is
proposing to spend 81 million (of union
money of courSe) to tell the true story"
of his union, the biggest and most power
full in the country.
We do not know exactly what this
means, and we do not know whether the
teamsters who pay the dues will stand
still for any such raid on the treasury.
One would think, however, that they are
less interested in the true story" of the
Transfers Union than in the true story"
of what Dave Beck and his henchmen
have done to that union.
Mr.. Beck had ample opportunity to
tell this story in his appearance before
the Mcclellan committee. But he chose.
instead, to wrap himself in the Fifth
Amendment. He is not going to tell this
true story in our opinion, in the course
of any 81 million public relations project,
and we trust that some way will be found
to prevent this waste of the transfers

missioners failed to include this recon-
mendation in the budget sent to the
Budget Bureau and Congress. This was
misguided economy-at the expense of
the private hospitals and thus at the ex-
pense of paying patients of those hos
pitfalls. We agree with the Hospital Coun-
Gil of the National Capital Area that the
private hospitals should be paid at least
as much as it costs the city hospital to
care for similar indigents, which today
amounts to 1888. The Appropriations
Committees recommendation of SIC
day is step in the right direction, but
it does not go far enough.

Roadside Eyesores

The movement to safeguard the pro-
posed Al 000-mile interstate highway sys-
TEN from roadside eyeSoreS of the type
so familiar to travellers on u S. Route
is worthy of public upport-although the
movement is a bit belated 1t would have
been better If some statement of policy,
at the least, had been included in the $50
Federal Highway Act which authorized
the network. For it is evident that
strong fight will be waged by commercial
Signboard and other interests to make
the most of the new roadside locations
opened up by the huge highway program.
The laws deficiency was brought to
public attention last December by Robert
Moses, New York's park chief. in Har-
per'S article. He wrote that the new ex-
pressWays would be call left exposed to
an indiScriminate mushroom growth of
ugly filling stations, hotdog stands and
all the other familiar roadside eyeSores."
He warned that "if the billions of public
investment >. are to be protected and
the value Of our scenery and natural
assets is to be preserved, steps to prevent
the onslaught of commercial advertising
must be taken before construction gets
under way" Since then several bills have
been introduced calling for varying de-
greeS OF Federal control of roadside
defacement-either by the setting of
standards voluntarily to be enforced by
the States or by the withholding of Fed
eral funds for noncompliance with the
standards. Hearings on some of these
proposals are being held this week.
We hope that some reasonable meth
cd Of control can be worked out, so that
the new vistas of natural scenery through
which the new highways will run will
not be desecrated as some of our older
highways have been.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

bore us at first. after q time 1t
establishes the proper mood.
This mood then becomes our
mood. 1t can only do this if
we continue to read.
Therefore, I implore all
persons who may have found
such things as The Education
OF Henry Adams and The
Decline and Fall of the Ro-
man Empire difficult going,
to persist in their reading, and
they will come to realize, at
last. that these aretruly great
works, with the seal Of genera
tions upon them.
Very truly yours. H. L. D."
These are pertinent sugges-
tons. we think. for anyone
doing any reading.
For it is not only the old,
large work, of undoubted
fame, which at times strikes
a reader as hard to get
through.
Even some Of the latest
wisecracker books. magazine
articles, and news writings,
will at certain times bore one
no end!
Perhaps one is not quite in
the mood for the very latest
political uppercuts delivered
by master showmen around
the world.
One says, "Phooie." or some
word to the same disreSpectful
effect. and turns back to some
popular song on radio or tele-
vision.
Much writing of all sorts
demands perseverance.
If the writer knows his busi-
ness. he is able to build up
his own mood. and if you 60
along with him for a time, he
rewards you with fact or fancy,
imagination. truth. maybe in
spiration Of a sort. His mood
becomes yours.
So here. as elsewhere, the
old slogan holds good:
If you don't succeed at
first. try, try. again."
The very fact that one has
heard Of great work. speaks
volumes for it.
In the vast sea of literature
literally millions of books have
been printed, read and lost.
But certain ones have not been
lost. They come down to us
triumphantly. serenely. SEEM
ing to know that they will find
their own readers in every
age.
The point. as our corre-
spondent says, is that no one
can know if he is a books
reader except by giving it a
chance to prove 1t to him,

DR.. Schulman: I'VE are
pretty safe in assuming that we
are all moving toward a more
democratic way of life, in spite
Of the fact that our democratic
way of life is threatened by
outside forces. and part of the
cost Of changing seems TO be
this growing defiance on the
part Of the child. just as one Of
the other costs Of changing
seems to be the rising of
divorce rate, the inability of so
many people to find happiness
in their marriages. People will
have to learn new ways of
getting along with each other.
and the training that will be
necessary is tremendous. We
will have to train everybody.
First We all have to train our
selves to be able to train people.
because we have to know better
what is going on-parents,
teachers, children, everybody is
going to have to get into this.
No one group will be able to
carry 1t though"
Mr.. ChumbriS: First of all
We have to crystalline the idea
of where that place should be,
I mean so far as parental
authority. what the commun-
ity's attitude should be toward
parental authority. We have
to establish that first, don't
WEI"
DR.. Schulman: what would
you like the community atti-
tude to be?"
That is a good question.
What do we. as a community.
desire as our attitude not only
as to parents attitudes toward
children. but also the COM
munity. the police. the juvenile
courts. etc, toward the youth?
Without going into a long
dissertation as to what an ex-
cellent program to combat
juvenile delinquency should
consist of. I would like to
briefly state that most ex-
pertS agree that four requisites
are necessary: ID research.
90 trained technicians, such as
psychiatriSts. probation Of
flcers, social workers, correc-
tional institutions staff, etc;
90 public information and
public relations, "a social
action. The first two require
expenditures of considerable
sums. however. the last two
items could be maintained
with the minimum of expendi-
lures. In many communities
such as the metropolitan area
of the District of Columbia the
newspapers. radio and televi-
sion stations donate much time
to matters of youth and prob
lens of juvenile delinquency.
BY social action it would re-
quire the coordination of all
organizations both public and
private for the betterment of
our youth.

Somerset Rezoninq

In one more month the ap-
plication for rezoning to COM
mercial Of a tract of land
wholly within the town of
Somerset. Md, will come be-
fore the Montgomery County
Council. The members of this
town have been working to-
gether with other communities
adjacent to this property
which the Hecht Company
wishes to develop into a large
shopping center, in an effort
TO prevent rezoning of an
area entirely surrounded by
homes. AS one of the many
homeownerS directly affected
by this proposal, we desire to
add our personal protest.
This is quiet community
where our children have been
safe from most traffic hazards
and where we purchased our
homes because of its attrac-
tive winding streets which do
not lend themselves to such
heavy traffic as would surely
come If this coming applica-
ton we're approved. An eX-
animation of the loss in prop
erty values and down grading
Of an area is wildly exempli-
fed in that section of Silver
Spring close to the Hecht
Company in that area. We do
not wish this type of develop
ment here. Many of our resi-
dents have moved to Somerset
and nearby communities from
Silver Spring to escape the
commercial blight spreading
in Silver Spring.
There are many shopping
areas easily accessible and we
do not need such a shopping
center. 1t cannot and will not
contribute either to the beauty,
health or safety Of this COM
munity or those surrounding
it. We hope that our many
sincere requests that this APP
plication be disapproved will
result in the Montgomery
County Council turning 1t
down as they have previous
applications.
