l. compared the opposition of the American
Medical Association to government participation
in health care to that of town which has heard
that dam has burst and that the flood waters are
rushing toward it.
''The ANA has prepared to meet the food"
De Vote wrote, "by saying that it must not get
here, that the flood waters are communistic, that
we shall all be lost if they reach the city limits
Hostile waters are now everywhere pounding
around the citadel of organized medicine itself
Never before has the medical profession been
under such widespread attack. Never before has
its prestige sunk SO low. Critical articles, essays
and books are appearing everywhere.
In one new book on the medical profession,
titled 'It's Cheaper To DIE" authc- William
Michelfelder asserts: "Millions of Americans
feel that medical service has deteri0rated into
business and the ideal of rendering care to
sick humanity has become tainted with the
OppOrtunism of commerce."
Many factors have contributed to this attitude.
The staggering cost of medical care, which has
climbed faster than any other item on the con-
sumner price index, is the most important.
The expense of new techniques of treatment is
a main cause of steep medical COSTS but doctors
are doing very well for themselves, too.
Also responsible for the growing antagonism
toward medical men is the shortage of doctors.
Past policies of the ANA have curtailed the num-
Der Of physicians and today there simply are not
enough to 60 around. Overworked doctors are
curt and abrupt with their patients. 1t is difficult,
if not impossible, to get doctor to ones home.
Few patients are getting the kind Of careful care
or attention they feel they are entitled to.
HOSTILITY to organized medicine has also
reached peak because of the unyielding attitude
of the ANA toward highly popular and much
publicized proposals for government-sponsored
medical insurance for the aged In addition, the
startling revelations of high profits and question
able practices in the drug industry made by Sem
ator Estes Kefauver's O-Tenn) Senate subcom-
mittee have been associated in the public mind,
juStifably or not, with organized medicine.

Not in Sight

NEW YORK, July 6 (AP).-
No significant pickup in steel
operations is expected until the
summer letdown is past, Iron
Age said today.
The National Metalworking
weekly added. "Automotive and
some other major users of fiat
rolled products continue to be
the strong factors in the mar
ket.
Railroads, appliance makers,
oil and gas, and home building
continue to depress the mar
ket with lower-than-expect
orders.
steel mpanies remote
from their markets have been
hardest hit. Users are filling
their orders from mills closest
to home to assure immediate
delivery, and to eliminate, as
far as possible, dangers of
carrying small inventories.
This accounts for the wide
variation in district operating
rates"
The magazine said all hopes
of record production this year
have faded, The peak was lit
million tons in 1855. At the
start Of this year estimates of
q Observation-Disclosures year
were widespread.
"The absolute best that can
be hoped for is lis million

One doctor left his luncheon

They treated the victims
from emergency kits carried at
all times in their cars, and then
the victims were transferred by
ambulance or on foot to the
hospital.
The hospital had only a few
minutes advance warning be-
fore the first victims arrived.
Some victims were wearing tags

Man Missing,
3 Rescued as
Boat Upsets

A man apparently drowned
about 6:45 last night in the Po-
tomac River when his small
boat capsized about 100 yards
north of Memorial Bridge.
Three other men in the boat
were rescued by another craft.
The rescued men said they
did NOT know the missing man.
They told police, the boat
turned over when the owner
grabbed the tiller and tried to
make a sharp turn to the left.
The three men identified
themselves as Tavern E. Lee,
80, of the 2100 block of Mary
land avenue NE, a counselor
at Cedar Knoll School in Lau-
rel, Md; his brother, Ernest j.
Lee, %, of the 800 block of
Oronoco street, Alexandria, Va,
a clerk in the Alexandria Post
Office, and Norman Harris, IS,
of the 400 block of North Al
fred street, Alexandria, a clerk
at the main Washington Post
Office.
They told police they and a
17-year-old Alexandria youth
were fishing from the shore of
Roosevelt Island when the
missing man offered to take
them out to the middle of the
river for better fishing.
The accident occurred, they
said, after they had been out
in the river for about IS min
utes. The boat capsized in a
swift current in the middle of
the channel.
Harbor police recovered the
boat within half an hour. At
a late hour last night they still
were dragging the river.

educators noted. Education,
they said, must meet the in

GoRILLAs TO GET NEW zoo CAGE
Mkt and MoIko GROWING Up
BY JERRY OLEARY, Jr.
Star Stan Writer

Nikumba and Molka, the
Washington Zoos pair of gum
chewing gorillas, have out
grown their quarters and are
going to get bigger ones.
Zoo Director Theodore Reed
said the gorilla couple simply
has grown so big and strong
in their five yesrs at the Zoo
that they will soon have to be
moved into new quarters.
Bids will be let this week
for construction of a double
indoor cage with an outdoor
adjunct and with stronger bars
and sturdier bracing.
The gorilla pair is about 6
years old now ard they weigh
probably little more than 200
pounds each. The cage that
was adequate for them as 20
pound baby gorillas will no
longer suffice.
Boast Great Strength
It's not that Nikuma and
Molka are mean or vicious, &C
cording to Keeper Bernard
Gallagher. But they are un-
believably strong.
Mr.. Gallagher thinks Nikum-
ba could bend the bars of his
present cage now if he only
knew he could. Everyone at the
Zoo feels it would be best to
get the couple into more secure
quarters soon.
Their new cage-in an area
now occupied by the long
armed gibbons-would be not
only stronger but larger. 1t also
will feature a glass front for
several reasons:
To keep the great apes from
throwing bananas at the peo-
pie.
To keep the people from
throwing things at the gorillss.
And to prevent infection of
the animals with human dis
eases, such as colds and tuher-
culosis, to which they are sub
ject.

The poisoning is believed to
have been caused by strycnine-
filled meat left for the dogs in
that neighborhood.
My dog was dead 10 minutes
after we returned from a brief
walk" reported Col. Harold c.
Brown of 1708 Irving street NV
Col. Brown said his Labrador
retriever had been a household
pet for almost four years and
had been in the best of health.
Fenced Property
Il recently spent over 5000 to
fence in my back yard so the
dog could be outdoors without
bothering others or having 9TH
ers bother her." Col. Brown
commented. He said he Just
spent another 5000 to bury the
dog and provide it with a grave
marker.
Easa Bazlamet Of 1885 Ho-
bart street NV. said he also
spent about 5000 to have his
yard enclosed for his dog,
Rusty"
I'VE treated Rusty just like
a member of the family for
eight years." Mr.. Bazlamet
commented. I'VE fed him the
best food and all the kids in
the block were crazy about
him" he added.
Two hours after Rusty had
been playing with neighbor-
hood children. he was found
dead in the Bazlanet basement,
his owner reported.
My wife and the kids cried
for that dog" Mr.. Bazlamet
said. Even the man from the
city cried when he came to take
the dog away in a truck"
Everett Cummings of 1927
Irving street said he was un-
aware that poisoning was sus-
pected when he found a raw
piece of chicken in his yard
the same day his dog suffered
the same fate.
when I went to work, the
dog was just fine" Mr.. Gun
nings said. when I came home
the dog was on the basement

He said he threw the chicken
in the trash.

fessed. I'm almost sure the

A Stool ratio of boys to girls
exists in discipline problems
and other difficulties in the
schools, DR.. Frazier noted.

Patient Plan

A new "day-night" psychia-

into operation at District Cen
eral Hospital in August, 1861,
according to DR.. John D.
Schultz, the hospital medical
director.
He told the second annual
conference of the D. C. Assoc
iation for Mental Health yes
terday that existing hospital
buildings would be converted
into living quarters and treat
ment facilities for the new
center.
The center will supply treat
ment for short-term patients
who are almost ready to resume
a normal role in the commu-
nifty, he said.
Some patients would live at
home and receive daytime
treatment, while others would
spend their nights at the center
and hold daytime jobs on the
outside, he added.
The "day-night" center is
one Of several new approaches
to treating mental patients dis
cussed at the conference yes
terday at All Souls Unitarian
Church, Sixteenth and Harvard

The "foster-home" plan was
described by Miss Frances

the Community Care Program
Of the Districts Bureau of
Mental Health.
This plan, in operation here
since February, places mental
patients in suitable private
homes to prepare them for
eventual full integration into
community life.
In another panel discussion,
DR.. Bernard Malloy, a psychi-
artist, said mental illness is
most likely to strike when a
person is undergoing some
major change such as adoles-
cence. facing marriage, or the
coming of middle age.
