What then does the expert learn when
he interprets an EGG? Two major pieces
of information are obtained. These are
the detection Of muscle damage or injury
to the heart; and the differentiation
between the various types Of irregular
beating Of the heart. Il is, therefore, an
important part of the complete medical
study of a patient and gives information

What u Can't Tell

II is important TO realize what the
electrocardiogram does nor tell. IL will
not tell how strong the heart muscle IS.
Il will not tell how long the patient IS
going to live. In rare instances. an indi-
Ndual may have a normal electrocardio-
gram with serious heart disease, or he
may have an abnormal EGG without
serious heart disease. II will not tell you
what kind Of heart disease you have -
whether. for example, il is due to rheu-
matte fever, hardening Of the arteries or
a rapid heart from some kind Of an
emotional upset.
Why was the Eisenhower electrocar-
diogram so important? First, il could
show If the heart muscle was damaged.
In the case of our President. who appar-
emily had some abdominal symptoms. it
could also help decide whether il was the
heart or the stomach which was causing
the trouble.
The question is often asked. Should
the electrocardiogram be routine part
Of all medical examinations? Certainly
il is a useful piece Of information TO
have, particularly for adults. Having a
normal tracing for comparison later. if
your doctor suspects that heart damage
has occurred, makes the Interpretation

The electrocardiogram, usually made
in the doctors Office or hospital by a
trained assistant, is taken by attaching
little metal electrodes TO the skin. These
pick up the tiny current from the heart.
This is amplified and a picture Of it is
produced on the roll Of paper. To the
patient il appears as an endless series Of
steeply-waved lines - looking like an

Almond Urged
To Keep Schools

The president of the Fairfax
County League Of Women
Voters has sent a letter to Gov
ernor Almond urging him to do
all in his power ito keep open
every public school in Virginia. 4"
Mrs. Sterling Lee wrote that
the league is concerned that
tremendous State and local
investment" in public schools
will be jeopardized and "even
more concerned over the edu-
cational future of the children
Of Virginia"
From our studies through
the past four years, we have
concluded that no simple set
Of laws or regulations can be
effective throughout the State
because each locality has its
own distinct problems. Should
the present laws of Virginia
prove inadequate for keeping
open every public school in
each school district, we ask that
the final decision on the matter
be left to each local school
board" Mrs. Lee said.

U.S.MedicaI Library
Will Be Built Soon
Bill Approving
Large Structure
Awaits Signing
BY GRACE BASsETT
star star Writer


Construction OF the long,
disputed $50 million National
Library Of Medicine should be
underway early next year,
sponsors said today.
Legislation granting the money
awaits President EisenhowerIs
signature. The $50 million item
was inserted in a SO billion
Health. Education and Welfare
Department budget. mainly
through efforts Of Senator Hill,
Democrat Of Alabama.
Neither the President nor the
House asked for funds.
But Senator Hill. chairman
Of the subcommittee responsible
for the library. convinced the
full Senate Appropriations
Committee and conferees last
week to allow the money.
Inc library, now in quarters
condemned as a fire hazard at
Independence avenue and Sew
enth street S.W., was tied up
in a dispute over a new loca-
ton in 1856. A faction Of med
ical leaders wanted to put the
library in Chicago. But Con-
gress authorized a Board Of
Regents to be established and
to choose a site.
First. the Regents selected
the reservation Of the National
Institutes of Health in Bethes-
da. This year. the location was
pin-pointed on the southeast
corner of the Institutes tract,
west Of Wisconsin avenue.
New York architects r. B.
O'Connor and w. H. Kilham,
jr., have assured Library Re-
gents that plans win be drawn
well before February. The Sen.
ate Appropriations Committee,
in approving the project. said
that funds could be obligated
by February or March, and
stipulated that they must be
obligated by not later than
April 80. 1859.
The library is part OF the
Public Health Service, not Of
the National Institutes.
1t was one Of the major
buildings on the Institutes
grounds cleared in the HEW
budget, however.
Others were:
A central administration
building, 500 million, also
added in the Senate to the
budget proposals as submitted
by the President and approved
by the House. Continued
fruitful expenditure of such
funds requires that the insti-
tutes have not only competent
and adequate stan but
also office facilities to perform
work without. sacrifice of es-
tablished standards Of excel.
lence," the Senate Committee
noted.
A dental research building,
$3.7 million. Both the House
and the Senate demanded this
building although the President
did not ask for it.
Bids for the dental research
facilities are expected to be re.
ceived by September, so con-
struction can begin in the fall.
The building is to be ready for
occupancy by February is,
1860, the congressional COM
mittees said.
