Court Rejects Suit to Block

lit added, would not pay for
the architects fees for the pro.
posed hospital, much less build
a hospital on the land.
The opinion noted that a
"basic provision" of the agree.
ment between the Silver Spring
Hospital Association and the
Sisters of the Holy Cross stip.
ulated that the new hospital
would be open to all persons
irrespective of race, creed,
color or residence" For this
reason, it added, the hospital
will be "a hospital impressed
with a public interest, in con.
formity with the enabling act"
The court said it did not feel
the necessity for passing on the
question of separation of church
and state on the ground that
the transfer of the property
and the proposed operation by
the Sisters of the Holy Cross
were in conformity with the
requirements of the enabling
act.

One is a new type of inter-

standardizing the size of the
new envelope, mail sorting and
delivery have been speeded up.

ISOLATION with no reservation
whatsoever"
The court said it disagreed
with the plaintiffs contention
that transfer of the property
without any Limitation and with
out any provision for reversion
constituted an unlawful act.
THE conveyance to the de-
PENDANT association was with no
strings attached" the opinion
said. THAT the County Com
missioners had such a right is
clear, since they complied in
full with the provisions of the
enabling act passed by the Gen
era: Assembly"
The principal purpose of the
act, the opinion said, was to
provide for a hospital in the
Silver Spring area, adding "and
by a transfer of the site to the
defendant, Holy Cross Hospital,
a charitable and benevolent in
be accomplished"
No Discrimination Seen
The Judge rejected the plain
tiffs' claim that operation of the
hospital by the Sisters of the
Holy Cross would amount to IAN
unconstitutional preference for
adherents of a single faith, F"
made possible by the support of
public funds Involuntary con-
tributed."
"The sole contribution in
which the plaintiffs could have
even a remote interest is the
$4,000 contributed to the pur-
chase of the site by the County
Commissioners in 1915, which
site was conveyed without any
reservation whatsoever to the

Local Drive
For Hospital

Maryland Gov. ]. Willard
Tawes has accepted honorary
Craftsmanship of the To-day
drive to top the 81 million goal
of the Silver Spring Hospital
Building Fund.
The Governor also has signed
a proclamation declaring the
100 days ending November %
as Operation Thanksgiving
Days"
The proclamation urges "all
community-minded citizens to
join in bringing this hospital
campaign to successful frui.
ton"
The announcement was made
today by Frank H. Proudfoot,
general chairman of the hospi.
tai campaign. 1t came on the
heels of a Montgomery County
Circuit Court decision paving
the way for the Silver Spring
Hospital Association to turn
over its assets ana land to the
Holy Cross Hospital of Silver
Spring, Inc, which will build
and operate the hospital.
The 81 millions hospital will
be built on a 10-acre site on
Forest Glen I'd. overlooking the
Capital Beltway and Sligo
Creek Park.
The campaign, which has
passed well beyond the 100000
mark has been held up pending
the court decision. Mr.. Proud
foot said that the new drive
will move ahead with renewed
effort and with concentration
on special gifts.
Leaders of the special gift
campaign will be announced
next week.
Gov. Tawes in his official
proclamation said there has
"long been recognized des-

He said it was with a feel

Operation of a new COM
munity hospital in Silver
Spring by the Sisters of the
Holy Cross was given a
legal green light this week
when Montgomery County Cir
cult Court dismissed a suit by
five citizens who sought to
block the project.
In an opinion signed by Chief
Judge Patrick NJ. Schnauffer
and Judge Thomas M. Ander-
son, the court upheld validity
of transfer of the hospital site
from the former Board of
County Commissioners to the
