CHI Fights
Bill toForce
Dental Pucts

Officers of Group Hospitali-
zation, Inc, today opposed a bill
they say would force them to
contract. with dental hospitals.
The bill was swept through
the House without hearings.
First, it authorizes Group
disqualification to enter with
such contracts. Dental hospitals
disseminated against" by
failure of CHI to approve con-
tracts could appeal for orders
forcing the agreements.
Representative Kee, Demo-
crat of West Virginia, sponsored
the legislation. She says
serious dental work would be
available to more people at
lower rates under the plan.
F, P. Rawlings, jr., presi-
dent of CHI, who testified be-
fore a Senate subcommittee,
protested that such forced con-
tracts would require an increase
in rates for his subscribers.
New contracts also would
have to be issued to all sub
scribers to limit benefits to
cases involving dental surgery
and requiring patients to be
hospitalized overnight, he said.
The contracting question first
arose last December, when the
Mead Dental Hospital of 1401
Sixteenth street NV. asked
Group disqualification for a
contract. The corporations ex-
ecutive committee rejected the
contract.
DR.. Sterling V. Mead main
tained his institution was the
only licensed, approved hos
pital in the District without a
contract for medical insurance
benefits. Denial of this con-
tract amounts to discrimina-
ton, he added.
He asked subcommittee
Chairman Morse, Democrat
Of Oregon. for permission to
file statement of facts and a
legal brief to correct erroneous
impressions which he said were
left by almost all testimony
this morning. He has until

Aviation Building Assured
1t was considered almost cer-
tain that at least the aviation
and space building will be ap-
proved by Congress, for two
major reasons. The building
is an integral part of the city's
Southwest redevelopment pro-
gram and its construction
would clear the way for razing
one of the largest, most un-
slightly temporary buildings of
the Government, near the
Washington Monument.
Chances appeared good that
all the buildings would be ap-
proved. The court building,
however is bound to draw
some criticism. It's originally
was planned for only the Court
Of Claims, but now is to in
clude the Court of Customs
and Patent Appeals as well.
The United States Tax Court
also wants space in the struc-
ture.
In controversy, too, is the
possible Lafayette square loca-
tion. A court there would be
built on a site now occupied
by three historic structures.

D. C.. Returns
House Sold
In Tax Error

Patrick J. Hassett has his
house back today, after the
District conceded it mistakenly
sold it for 500.
Red-faced District officials
explained that the three-bed-
room home. at 2711 North
Capitol street, went on the
auction block because some one
punched the wrong hole on an
IBM card.
District Court Judge Edward
M. Curran signed the order re-
turning the $4,000 property to
Mr.. HaSSett, of 1910 Hammond
avenue, Takoma Park, after a
settlement.
1T was the first time the city
has made such a mistake and
that is remarkable. considering
how many homes ale taxed
here every year." one official
offered in mitigation.
Mr.. Hassett filed suit in Dis
trict Court to regain his prop
erty last summer, when he
learned that it had been auc-
toned in 1856 allegedly because
of delinquent real estate taxes
Mr.. Hassett had paid his
taxes, but the District mis-
takenly credited the payment
to another property. The Dis
trict says it notified Mr.. Has
Sett he was delinquent at that
time. But he said he never
received the letter.
The city sold the property
for the amount of taxes al
legedly owed in January, 1857,
to the Shenandoah Corp. The
District says it sent another
letter to Mr.. HaSSett in De-
cember, 1858, to advise him
he could redeem the property,
but Mr.. HaSsett said he did
not. receive that letter either.
After the two years required
by law expired, Shenandoah
was eligible to start collecting
rent from the North Capitol
street address. That apparently
is when Mr.. Hassett learned
about the sale, a District Off
cial said.
The District will repay the
$69 to Shenandoah.

More Tibetans
Flee 10 India

NEW DELHI, June % (AP)
Reports continue of more
sharp fighting between Tibetans
and Chinese Communists in
western Tibet.
Unconflrmed reports coming
via Nepal say the Chinese have
reinforced normal 2,000-man
garrison at Porkha with a full
division of $4,000 men to COM
bat the guerrillas.
An Indian official said yeSter-
day far more refugees have
poured out of beleaguered Tibet
recently and more are expected.
There were $4,000 refugees in
India and several thousand
more in Nepal before the new
flow began.
The fighting in the Porkha
area, on the main east-west
T1betan highway, has been re-
ported for more than a week
but the full extent of the battles
is not known.
Additional reports indicate
more battles at several points
IN Central Tibet. One is at
Saka, 245 miles east of Porkha,
where rebels are said to be
trying to capture an important
pass.
Another battle was reported
about so miles north of Mount
Everest.
Continued fighting also is
reported around Gyangtse, an
important town on the old
trade route from Lhasa to
India.
The sudden increase of
refugees into India is believed
to be caused by severe Chinese
repression and food shortages
IN Tibet, as well as the new
fighting.
1ndia's chief of staff, Gen
K. S. Thimayya, told newsmen
yesterday the Tibetan guer-
rillaS are fighting the Chinese
Reds with whatever they can
get their hands on in the way
of WeaponS-from ancient muz-
zle leaders to more modern
guns discarded by many ma
tionS.
Gen. Thimayya said he ia
vored a more careful screening
OF the Tibetan refugees stream
ing into India.
Il am convinced a certain
percentage of subversive ele-
ments are coming in with the
refugees" he said.
