The Kennedy cabinet is
holding regular but unofficial
meetings without the President,
it was reported yesterday, be-
cause Mr.. Kennedy views most
formal cabinet sessions as a
waste of time.
With the Presidents approval
and encouragement, cabinet
officers are meeting every Sec
ond Wednesday at a different
department. The August 2
meeting will be at the Penta-
gon, and two weeks later the
Treasury will be the host.
Although Mr.. Kennedy con-
suits his cabinet members as
individuals more than many
recent Presidents, he prefers to
call together only those directly
concerned with the problems at
hand.
AS a result, the institution of
weekly cabinet meetings, on
which former President Eisen-
hover set great store, has dis
appeared in the new admins
tration. Only eight meetings
have been held in Mr.. Ken
nedy's first six months in office.
The President has explained
that he believes valuable time
is consumed, and no useful
purpose served, when a room
full of important people sit
listening to discussions that
concern only two or three.
Moreover, a White House
aide said yesterday, Mr.. Ken
nedy reliShes sharp debate but
dislikes long speeches. He con-
ours with a report of the Sen
ate Subcommittee on Govern
ment Policy Machinery that
said the more people involved
in a discussion, the less is
likely to be accomplished.
"The man whose first SEN
tence gets to the heart Of the
problem is the man who holds
the Presidents attention" a
White House aide told a re-
porter.

a long windup loses Mr.. Ken
nedy quickly"
At a full cabinet session last
month someone suggested that
the cabinet members would get
to know each other better and
could discuss common prob
lens of administration and
personnel if they had regular
meetings by themselves.
Mr.. Kennedy was pleased
with the idea, the informant
said, and suggested that the
first get-together be held in
the White House. The second
was held at the State De-
partment's dining room last
Wednesday.
Most cabinet members were
said to consider their unoffi-
cial fortnightly meetings a
great success and a source Of
unity and cohesion in the
administration.

connection with negotiations
over the check. Batista has
sought refuge in Portugal's
Madeira Islands.
Mr.. Austin declined to con-
firm that he had made such a
trip but added: There might
be some truth In it,
The second affidavit linking
Mr.. Austin with the multi
million-dollar check was signed
by Glen P. Bevan, also an
engineer. He could not be
reached for comment yesterday.
The Bevan affidavit states
that Mr.. Austin was first con-
tacted by the Cuban govern
ment in regard to the purchase
of vehicles in 1858.
According to Mr.. Smith, Mr..
Austin and Mr.. Bevan were
formerly associated in connec-
ton wit hthe development Of a
giant snowplow.
The Berlanti suit seeks $50
million in damages on a claim

DETROIT, July 26 (AP)-
The stage was set today for a
showdown struggle over dele
gate seats to Michigan's first
Constitutional convention in So
years-but for many candidates
it may be a sham battle.
Only about is per cent-or
less than 600.000-of the States
4 million registered voters
turned out at the polls in yes
terday's primary to nominate
288 candidates for the Septem-
ber IL general election. The
convention will start October 8.
In many predominantly Re-
publican or Democratic districts
the nomination was believed
tantamount to election.
There were no major upSetS
in the primary, and most big
name candidates either were
unopposed or won handily.
These included George Rom
ney. president of American
Motors Corp; John A. Hannah,
president Of Michigan State
University: former Republican
Congressman Alvin Bentley;
G. o. P. national committee

Batista government.
One of the affidavits accom-
panying the Berlanti suit was
sworn to by Arthur L. Smith, SO,
IA Miami engineer, who is now
registered at a Washington ho-
tel. Mr.. Smith, in the affidavit,
stated that ION any occasions
he heard Mr.. Austin say that
the $12.5 million check was
made available" to him by
Cuba and has been held in
trust for the purchase of agri-
cultural vehicles and equipment.
Mr.. Smith yesterday told a

Private Doctors
Reap Subsidy,
Expert Says

The American public subsidies
doctors in private practice to the
tune of So billion annually by pro-
viding them with hospital buildings,
equipment and personnel to carry
out what is both professional SER
vice and "a private, competitive
business" Michael M. Davis, ma
tionally known medical economist,
has declared.
Fifty years ago, Davis declared,
the voluntary non-profit hospitals
in the country served charity pa
tients" almost exclusively, and
medical staffs "gave their services
to these patients without charge" "
Today, he added, 80 percent of the
100000 beds in these voluntary
hospitals are from patients "who
pay their doctors directly or
through an insurance plan."
The capital investment in the
beds occupied by paying patients is
roughly 81 billion-an average of
$4,000 worth of buildings and
equipment placed without charge"
at the disposal of each of the 1OO,-
900 physicians who make use of
these hospital facilities, he pointed
out.
The medical economist said that
we subsidize the doctors in addi-
ton" by providing him also with
the free use of nurses and other
personnel for the care of his priv
ate patients. For each of the 1O0,-
600 doctor involved, he continued,
this is an additional $10,000-a-year
subsidy-a total of 81 billion an
nually.
Davis contended that 1--WE subsi-
die the private practice of doctors
to a greater degree than any other
body of professional practitioners" "
