BUSY PUBLISHER

WASHINGTON up - The aero
space industry claims that it is
the nations largest book publisher
and its stacks of technical manuals
exceeds the combined output of all
the commercial book publishing
houses in the nation.
Planes, the official publication
of the Aerospace Industries Asso-
citation, says that though these man
uals will never reach the "best
seller" list, the cost to produce
them is astronomical = the Air
Force alone spending some $50 mil
lion dollars year for technical
manuals.
The publication adds that the
aerospace industry is attempting
to cut the mounting cost through a
program of manual STANDARDIZED
ton. A plan to accomplish this act
has been submitted to the Defense
Department.

tuberculosis
Patients Rise
Glenn Dale Finds
No Drop in Disease

Treatment Of a record num-
Der of cases at Glenn Dale
Hospital in the past fiscal year
indicates that tuberculosis is as
prevalent here as ever before.
a hospital spokesman said
today.
George Halstead, administra-
tive officer for the city's sani-
tarium, said the total number
of individual cases treated in
fiscal 1859 was 1918. The pre-
vious record was reached in
1856 when 1910 individual
cases were treated.
The average number of daily
bed occupants at the hospital
last fiscal year amounted to
|553-a jump above the 4e5
average figure for the prior
year.
Actually, Mr.. Halstead noted,
the average stay in the hos
|pital is shorter now for each
patient, primarily because Of
the use of wonder drugs and
outpatient clinics. Most pa
tients although released sooner,
still must continue to seek
clinical care.
At IS Per Cent Of Capacity
The hospital operated at 95
per cent of capacity last year,
Mr.. Halstead said. The prior
year it was operated at some
what more than 80. per cent OF
capacity.
The sudden increase last fis-
cal year in the patient load is
probably due to improvement
in the District Health Depart
ment's tuberculosis case finding
program, it was pointed out.
New cases are discovered
through this program by such
methods as chest X-rays, tu-
berculin tests, chest clinic ex-
aminations and the screening
of jail prisoners who may be
carrying the disease.
Statistics purporting to
show that tuberculosis was
declining were not exactly cor
rect" Mr.. Halstead commented.
Bed Patients Drop
At one point, when the
number Of patients began to
decline at Glenn Dale follow
ing the introduction of wonder
drugs. it was proposed that the
hospital was no longer needed
as a tuberculosis treatment
center.

with newsmen but otherwise
had no comment.
The negotiations, held in
New York until now, were
broken OF last Friday by the
union, which claimed the talks
were getting nowhere.
The decision to resume the
talks was made in Washington
yesterday after the President
talked with union and industry
leaders in separate meetings.
He repeatedly told both sides in
firm language that he wanted
collective bargaining to con-
tinue.
Taft-Hartley Not Discussed
The President, VINO has re-
ferred to the strike as an in
tolerable situation, repeatedly
did not discuss issues during
the meetings.
He also avoided discussing
the possibility Of invoking
emergency provisions of the
Taft HARTLEY Act. which would
put the mills back in operation
during an 8O-day cooling off,
period.
But there was a strong i'm
plication that the President
might take such action if moth

NEW YORK, Oct. 1 (AP).-
Dock workers ignored Govern
ment pleas today and staged
a surprise walkout in many
Eastern and Gulf Coast ports,
stranding scores Of cargo YES
sells.
Oficials Of the independent
international Longshoremen's
Association predicted all the
LAS $4,000 stevedores on the
two coasts would be on strike
within hours as orders reached
them from New York.
A fulI-scale walkout would
virtually halt all cargo shipping
on the two coasts, as have SIM
liar strikes in the past.
However, in the first few
hours of the strike the situa-
ton was spotty. Cargo hand
lers were reported still on the
job in the Carolinas and Flori-
da as contract negotiations
with employees continued in
those areas.
Many Ships Affected
The major ports Of New
York, Boston, Baltimore and
some other New England areas
were all but at a standstill.
Estimates Of the Number Of
ships affected in New York
ranged from 157 to 100. New
England listed them in dozens.
Baltimore had about two dozen
with cargoes, plus l6 more in
shipyards. Philadelphia counted
ID. Thirty were reported af-
fected in New Orleans.
The Gulf Coast reported
