Scientifically

A distraught young husband

said he had been seeing an
Arlington woman whose hus-
band is in Japan in military
service.
They said the woman visited
him about 6 pm. yesterday and
he asked her to move to Flor
ida with him. When she re-
fused he pulled out a pistol and
threatened to shoot himself.
When an unidentified caller
reported a Stabbing at the adj

the pistol. Mr.. Brady said.
''Don't come any closer or I'll
Shoot" He held the pistol
pressed against his stomach.
A priest, the Rev. Jonn J..
Madigan of Holy Comforter
Church. was summoned and
talked to Mr.. Brady for about
half an hour while the woman
stood outside in the hall.

he could talk to the woman.
Policemen brought her into
the room and Mr.. Brady fired
the gun into himself.

He said the board felt its rate
structure for privately paying
patients was sound and that the
only recourse was to reduce the
number Of beds available to In

Receives Reimbursement
The hospital receives reim-
bursement from the city's well
fare department for many indi-
gents, he acknowledged. But
he declared that it did not
come close to covering the cost
Of caring for such patients. The
current welfare rate for city
patients is $17.60 per day

is $24.13 per day. he said.
Mr.. Richard did not specify
how many beds would be lin

1t costs $1.65 extra (the

how much easier on the

it. He missed Baltimore.

what the toll would be. He

It said the work on the

it is expected to open about

Then it added that traific

said that going northeast

minutes on the new route.
That gave the Rambler

sometimes added up to IS
