Representative Lankford,
Democrat of Maryland, said
last night he is going to make
a new attempt to force Navy
officials to reveal their plans
for the Naval Weapons Plant.
He made this statement at a
meeting in the House Office
Building of about Is represen-
tatives of Weapons Plant en-
ploye organizations, the Metro
politan Washington Board of
Trade and the Prince Georges
County Chamber of Commerce
Representative Lankford told
the group the Navy's refusal to
disclose its plans for the plant
has been a major obstacle in
finding other uses for it.
He said he plans to make a
floor speech in the House listing
the Navy's "evasive" replies to
his questions. He added that
this might embarrass them
into telling us what is going on"
Lack of Navy contracts has
resulted in the layof of many
employees at the plant and
threatens the jobs of additional
workers there.
Meanwhile, Walter L. Green,
who is seeking the Democratic
congressional nomination in
Maryland's Fifth District, said
last night that his opponent.
Representative Lankford, has
waited too long before trying to
help personnel laid off at the
plant.

croft Citizens Association in
Eastpines, MIR. Green, a College
Park attorney. said Mr.. Lank-

ton was working to develop

President Eisenhower told a
news conference last week that
he had instructed Secretary
Flemming to confer with all
interested people, such as in
surance companies and medi-
cal experts, and work out what
should be the responsibility of
the individual, and the city and
the State and. finally, the Fed
eral Government" in a volun-
tary insurance program.
Health insurance for the aged
is on its way toward becoming
q major issue in this years
election campaign. Both Sen
ators Humphrey of Minnesota
and Kennedy of Massachusetts,
have been attacking admins
tration opposition to the
Forand bill in their campaigns
for the Democratic presidential
nomination.
A Senate subcommittee,
meanwhile, heard testimony to-
day from a private health in
surance group that voluntary
plans should be supplemented
by Federal aid.
Jerry VoorhiS, executive Sec
retary of the Group Health AS
sociation. supported legislation
along the general lines Of the
Forand bill.
Heard by Senators
Mr.. Voorhis. a tormer House
Democrat from California, tes-
tined before the Senate Sub
committee on Problems of the
Aged. The association he rep
resents is a federation Of VOL
untary organizations including
the Group Health Association
of Washington.
He declared that voluntary
programs of this kind perform
a necessary and valuable serv-
ice in trying to meet an ex-
tremely difficult problem.
But he added:
1T is still evident that re-
sources beyond those available
either to the voluntary prepay
ment plans or to the people over
65 or even over so must be
made available from som e
source. Application of the in
surance principle would seem
logical. And use of the social
security system as a convenient
vehicle certainly recommends
itself.
IN general our organization
has been forced to the conclu-
sion that participation by the
Federal Government through
the social security program
and passage of legislation along
the general lines of the Forand
bill is probably necessary if the
needs for health care of the
aging population are to be met
in any adequate way"
Modification Gains
Meanwhile. moves to modify
the Forand old-age health in
surance bill in a House COM
mittee and to make it even
broader in the Senate subcom-

many had been victims Of in

lice trucks arrived and police
began getting out.
There were quite a lot of
women there who had come out

police scattered and entered
houses round about. Women
started screaming and I saw a
man run out Of his house being
hit by police with batons. I
heard shots fired.
Women picked up and
dragged away one man who

police commissioner for Cape
Town, confirmed that the po-
lice had opened fire but said
only warning shots were fired
over the heads Of Africans who
gathered.
Offering Protection
Col. Reay said the police en-
tered Nyanga to offer protection
for Negroes who wanted to go
to. work and to round up "in-
timidators" preventing them.
Africans in the township
claimed police smashed windows
and doors of houses and or
