CHICAGO, May B. Psy-

emergency duty at Suburban
Hospital that all other county
doctors had agreed to do.
And yet, he said, the patient
has every right to expect any
physician to be familiar with
simple medical skills, including
pSychiatrists.
Suburban Case Cited

He had lived in Washington
since 1880 in a comfortable
Georgian brick house at 65

member of the University
and Century Clubs in New
York and the Metropolitan

He wrote for a lobby, for
trade magazines and turned
out subsidized books. In 1910
Gilbert GroSVenor asked him
to write for the National
Geographic, a connection
that was very rewarding to
amour prOpre as well as to

pal Church, past president of
the English Speaking Union
and the Society of Fine Arts
and has served on the boards
of hospitals and a dozen
charitable institutions.
AS for clubs it is amazing
to learn that he has belonged
to so many. He was a mem
Der of the Players in New

Pvt. Hirshman said he and

Psychiotrists Chided
As Over-SpecioIized

Medical Society agreed to set
up a rotating system of VOL
unteer doctors to cover the
emergency room on a take
turns basis at nights and on
week ends.
DR.. Felix charged that the
only group Of doctors who
wouldn't-or couldn't-rely on
their basic medical skills to do
this were the psychiatristS.
They were excused. he said,
because both psychiatrists and
other doctors agreed they
hadn't retained these basic
Skills.
Speaking OF the Montgomery
County pSychiatristS. DR.. Felix
said, the pSychiatrists MAIN
tained that they felt them
selves so unfamiliar with what
would be required Of them On
the Suburban Hospital emerg-
ency room that it would be in
the best interest OF the patients
II they were excused"
1T has been rather disturb
ing to me to learn how quickly
the general medical knowledge
and skills of many young psy-
chiartistS seem to deteriorate, 4"
he said.
II am always concerned to
find that the residents in the
first Is months do very well
answering medical questions
and that they seem to enjoy
the session." DR.. Felix said.
Suggests a Poll
But the senior residents are
much more likely to do poorly
and not infrequently they are
bored with the whole business.
The senior residents" he
added, "often wonder what all
this has to do with psychiatry
anyway.
ITO this observer such an
attitude is ominious for the
future of the psychiatrist as a
physician" he continued.
Would it not perhaps be re-
vealing to poll the membership
of this association to ascertain
the last time each had taken a
postgraduate or refresher
course in any phase of medi-
cine except psychiatry?" he
asked.

was being considered today at
the annual diocesan conven-
ton of the Episcopalian Wash
ington Diocese.
The statement, which was to
be introduced by Canon Charles
Martin. headmaster of st. AL

effectiveness of great national
ceremonies is "leSsened" when
too many major religious
groups are represented and
participate.
The statement pointed out
that "at the Inauguration of
President Kennedy four clergy
men shared in the ceremonies.
With the wide diversity of re-
ligious beliefs among the peo-
pie of our country. it is under
standable that those who plan
the inauguration and that
those who have planned other
ceremonies of national sig
nificance. would wish to have
the major religious groupings
of our Nation represented.
I'VE understand this and we
appreciate the intention but we
do not believe it is necessary
or wise. Such repreSention
makes for imbalance in the
ceremony and reduces their to-
tai effectiveness"
The resolution further sug-
gested that "the common prac-
tice of having one clergyman

Leroy Sims, 46, a truck driver
and night watchman living at
the Fiftieth street address, said
he first noticed the car on Sun
day, April 80.
After a while 1 called police
about it," Mr.. Sims said. Il
guess they came out while 1
was at work. but my wife said
she saw a police car pulling
out of the driveway"
Mr.. Sims became curious
again yesterday while working
near the car. He detected an
odor and again called police.
This time the examination was
thorough. The body could be
seen from behind the lifted
rear seat.
Two bullets were recovered
from the head. Deputy Coroner
Richard L. Welton said. One
was lodged in the brain and the
second flattened against the
skull. Both had been fired into
the forehead just above the

ALBERT ATWOOD is a
Yankee despite his Jersey
City birth. The Atwood fam
lily home at Chatham on
Cape Cod was built about
1850.
1t was a church-going CAL
whist family, Congregation
aliSt on Cape Cod, Dutch Re-
formed in Jersey City and
later Presbyterian.
His father, a railroad civil
engineer, died at 80 from ty-
phoid fever. His mother died
shortly after, leaving him
and a younger brother or
phaned before their teens.
He was never in want.
There was a small estate and
a conscientious guardian who
enabled him to go to Am
herSt. But the painful lone
illness of an orphaned boy
hood is suggested. Perhaps
that is why he has been so
gregarious.
He was a financial-page
reporter and editor before
he became a regular contrib
utor to the Saturday Evening
Post. George Horace Lorimer,
the editor who made the
Post, liked his product.
From earliest s. E. P. days
l was fascinated by the prob
lens Of great wealth, large
incomes and rich men in
general"
In "a years he sold the Post
200 long articles and count
less editorials. This did not
make him wealthy, but it
gave him an income that en-
abled him to join the best
clubs.
But that came to an end
in 1887 when Lorimer retired
shortly before his death.
He had to make another
connection. The beSt-paying
magazine was, and is, the
Readers Digest. He got an
assignment. The Digest paid
him but never published the
article. Subsequently he wrote
on order several short ar
ticles.
But he was getting no
where with suggestions. He
went to his literary agent,
who told him that Dewitt
Wallace, head of the Digest,
"had said I had never been
able to write anyway"

An 0ctoeenurion
Autobiography
By GEORGE KENNEDY

When the writer first met
Albert w. Atwood he was
president of the Washington
Rotary Club and enjoying it.
This seemed peculiar be-
cause he is a professional
writer. But he is one little
influenced by H. L. Mencken
or Sinclair Lewis.
He likes businessmen and
first-name calling and back
Slapping and all that.
Albert Atwood is an organ
ization man. His organiza-
ton is the leading citizen
group of the upper middle
class that makes a bow to
Culture.
He has privately published
his autobiography, "These 80
Years" It is written pri-
marily for his family and cir
culated among his friends.
The Rambler, who in
tended merely to dip into it,
spent most of Saturday read
ing it in its entirety.
1t has qualities of candor
and frankneSs that some
would consider downright
unYankeelike.
1t is not Oh sale. 1t has
not been offered to a pub
Usher. Perhaps one will pick
it up. 1t would be no mistake.
1t is a contribution to the
American story of the goth
century. And it is available
in the Washington public
libraries, on whose board
Albert Atwood served for
many years.

U. S. Example
On Tax Credit
BY ALEX r. PRESTON
Star Staff Writer


RICHMOND, May 8.-Coun-
sci for Prince Edward County,
Va, today defended tax credits
allowed for contributions to that
county's private, segregated
school system by citing Federal
and State income tax credits
allowed for church donations.
The argument was advanced
before Federal Judge Oren r.
Lewis by Collins Denny, jr.,
counsel for the Prince Edward
County School Board.
1t came as the court heard
motion by the State of Viz
ginia and the County to dis
miss an amended supplemental
complaint which the court al
lowed group of Negroes to
file last month in the Prince
Edward school desegregation
case.
The Negro plaintiffs are
seeking to reopen public
schools in Prince Edward
County on a nom -diScrimina-
tory basis. Public schools there
have been closed for two years
and about l,400 white children
have been educated in private
claSSrooms while approximately
1,700 Negro children have. for
the most part, been without
education.
U. S. Plea Slated
Judge Lewis said he would
hear arguments later today on
a motion filed by Robert Ken
nedy, Attorney General of the
United States, to admit the
Government as a co-plaintiff
with the Negroes in the 10
year-old case.
This motion will be opposed
by the County and the State
whose officials are named as
defendants.
The Federal Governments,
motion. which would prohibit
Virginia from spending State
funds for public schools any,
where until those of Prince Ed
ward are reopened to both
races. also challenges the tax
credits, ranging up to Is per
cent, which Prince Edward al
lows for owners of real estate
who make donations to the pri-
vate schools.
Scope Questioned
The defendants are contend
ing that new issues, going be-
yond the scope of the original
suit, have been raised in the
plaintiffs amended complaint
and therefore should be brought
in separate suits under Federal
rules Of procedure.
Judge Lewis inquired, What
is your position insofar as the
Fourteenth Amendment is con-
cerned"
The plaintiffs and the Gov
ernment in its motion tc inter-
vene both contend that chill
dren of Prince Edward County
are denied equal opportunity
with those of other Virginia
counties where public schools
are maintained.
Mr.. Denny said he thought
this issue should first be re-
solved in State courts.
IF the State Of Virginia op-
Grated schools" he added,
there might be some validity
to their contention" 1t was his
contention that schools are run
by the localities.
CT Bill Cited
In further support Of the
State and local tuition grants
program, Mr.. Denny referred
to the Federal CT bill in which
aid is given for college eduea-
ton.
The Federal Government
did not restrict its grants to
GIs atten ding integrated
schools" Mr.. Denny said. "As
a matter of fact they did not
restrict them to non-Sectarian
schools. as Virginia does"
Robert D. McIlwaine III, As
Sistant State Attorney General,
said: 1--WE are confident this
court will not be misled by

couched in the terms of an in

l once heard about q man
who was very wealthy. He lived
on a large, beautiful estate. He
drove a long, sleek car. He was
able to dress in the latest fash
ions and enjoy all the luxuries
Of life. But no one was envious
Of this mans wealth-no one
resented his having so much.
He knew how to use his surplus.
Many small church groups
worshiped in lovely buildings
that this man had given them.
The hospital in his city built
and furnished an entire wing
with his donations. Charitable
organizations were never re-
fused aid from this great man.
He even supported an entire
mission school and contributed
to the missionary teachers sup
port. And God blest him and
prospered him even more. His
surplus was a blessing to his
fellow man.
Is Cod interested in people
having a surplusp Does He ever
give more than is needed? ! be-
lieve He does. In my opinion,
while a surplus is not necessary
to the salvation Of a soul, it is
vital to the well-being of a wit
ness for Jesus Christ.
From the very beginning God
has given SURPRISES to His fol
lowers. Remember how God
provided food for the Israelites

Sabbath. But if they gathered
too much or unwisely used the
surplus. it spoiled. This shows
that we are to use our SURPRISES
as Cod tells us to and only tor
His glory and service.
David the Psalmist said, My
cup runneth over" 1t got too
full; it had a surplus.
Once Christ took a little
boys lunch of five small loaves
and two fish and multiplied it.
He blest the lunch, fed five
thousand men and had twelve
baskets Of surplus left oyer.
The Apostle Paul wrote, But
my God shall supply all your
need according to his riches in
glory by Christ Jesus That
Scripture means that our needs
shall be met, not by minimum
standards or with just enough
to get by, but according to the
riches Of Cod. This promise is
not to supply part Of our needs,
but God promises to supply ~
our needs.
Christ has offered us the
abundance Of His eternal life.
He said, 4 am come that they
might have life, and that they
might have it more abundantly.
Here is a promise Of surplus.
Christ specifically mentioned

Cod is pleased to bless all Of
us with a surplus Of everything
we need in this world if we will
dedicate it to His glory.
God has a surplus for you.
