IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our beloved
mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Aparicio,
who died seven years ago, April
%, 1852.
There are little ones glancing about
on my path,
In need of a friend and a guide;
There are dim little eyes looking
up into mine
Whose tears could be easily dried.
But Jesus may beckon the children
away,
In the midst of their grief and
their glee:
viii any of these, at the Beautiful
Gate
Be waiting and watching for me?
There are old and forsaken who
linger awhile
In the homes which their dearest
have left;
And an action of love, or a few
gentle words,
Might cheer the sad spirit bereft.
But the reaper is near to the long
standing corn,
The weary shall soon be set free:
VIII any of these, at the Beautiful
Gate,
Be waiting and watching for me?
There are dear ones at home I may
bless with my love,
There are wretched ones pacing
the street;
There are friendIess and suffering
strangers around,
Whom in Heaven above I may
meet.
There are many unthought Of,
whom happy and blest,
In the land of the leal I shall see:
viii any of these, at the beautiful
Gate
Be waiting and watching for me?
Sadly missed by daughters, Mrs.
Overton Wycough and Mrs. D.
Jalma GARNER.

The State Department spokes-
man recognized the fact that West
Africans share certain common
historical experiences, backgrounds
and conditions, but on the other
hand, he added, the obstacles to
regional unity are still great. 1T
would appear, however, that West
African political leadership will
place considerable emphasis on
functional cooperation in such
fields as common economic policy
and customs services.
US. Hit From Both Sides
Satterthwaite said the United
States has been accused Of being
anti-colonialist and workin 6
against the Europeans in Africa,
It has also been accused by At
ricans of working hand-in-hand
with our NATO allies to repress
African freedom. But the policy Of
the United States is not incon-
sistent, he emphasized.
I'VE support African political
aspirations where they are moder-
ate, non-violent and constructive
and take into account their obliga-
tons to and interdependence with
the world community.
He added, however, that the U.
S. feels that Africa should main
tain ties with Western Europe, be-
cause he could see no cause why
there should be a conflict between
the two concepts.
q. $. Policy Is Clear
The policy of the United States
is clear and unequivocal," he
emphasized. I'VE believe in the
right of ef-determination for all
peoples e..
I'VE favor an orderly, steady
development of African countries
to the point where they may join
the community of free nations as
equal members, able to stand on
their own feet
Il am convinced that the yearn-
ing of the peoples of Africa for
a better way of life presents US
with one of the great challenges

nNE PLEASANT April day so years ago.
" an Evening Star delivery boy named
Homer Greenfield stopped to pick straw
berries in Takoma Park garden Unfor-
tunately, he was interrupted by the owner,
who chased him away
In haSty flight, the 12-year -old tried
to clear high barbed-wire fence He was
unsuccessful The wire caught finger
and ripped off most of the flesh.
Hurt, but very much in a hurry, Homer
didn't halt to nurse his wound He sped
toward hospital, under construction near
by where he had friends, men to whom he
brought The Star every day
Gasping with pain and exertion. he
made 1t to the doorway of the unfinished
building, then collapsed. Workmen carried
him, unconscious and bloody, to an oper-
ating room cluttered with supplies to be
stored. There, massive master sergeant
in the Medical Corps cleared a table, put
the boy on it, and quickly sewed the finger.
And that" explained Homer Green

how 1 became the first patient at Walter

Mr.. Greenfield, now retired after A
years of Federal service, had occasion to
recall the incident again as the hospital
marked its Golden Anniversary Friday
The place opened long before his finger
healed.

Mr. Greenfield was the unofficial first
OF about 100000 patients, from privates to
Presidents, who have been treated at Walter

When the institution opened officially

But the hospital grew rapidly, and in a few
years was handling about 600 patients at
time Authorized capacity now is 1850.
This can be increased quickly to meet
emergencies, however. During World War I,
temporary arrangements were made for
$500. And once, during the Korean con-
flict, 5000 were admitted.
Since 1928, the hospital has been in
