Duty-Free
Goods Curb
Is Signed
BY the Associated Press

The amount of goods subject
to tariffs which American tour
lists may bring home with them
duty-free will drop from $500
to 500 next month.
President Kennedy has sign
ed the bill he asked Congress
to enact making the change.
The measure is effective in 80
days and remains in force until
June 80, 1868.
Mr.. Kennedy asked the re-
duction as part Of his program
to restrict the flow of dollars
from the United States and re-
duce the strain on United
States gold holdings.
Congress wrote in a provision
allowing duty-free import from
the Virgin Islands of up to 5000
worth of goods subject to tariffs
The allowance of duty-free
imports of $500 worth Of tariff
subject goods has been in effect
since 1948 when tariff laws
were relaxed to encourage the
spending Of dollars in war
strained friendly countries.

Hospital Puts Unit
On Do-It-YourseIf
Treatment Busis

CHICAGO, Aug. IL (AP).-
A hospital unit in which pa.
tients take their own medicine
and walk to the hospital cafe
terra for their meals was de-
scribed today as saving pa
tients money.
The minimal care unit, at
the North Carolina Baptis.
Hospital in Winston Salem
opened in March with 80 rooms
for patients.
Writing in Hospitals, the
journal Of the American Hos
pital Association, Robert Walk
er, administrative assistant OF
the North Carolina Baptist
Hospitals, Inc, said rooms ir
the unit range in cost from 81
to $l2 a day. This compares
with $3.50 for the least expen-
Sive ward bed in the hospital
Each room has a private
bath, telephone and remote
control TV set. There are
lounges, a barber shop and q
beauty shop.
Eligible patients are conva-
leScents or those admitted fol-
diagnoStic studies or treatment
not requiring intravenous
drugs. Persons with fever or in
lection are not eligible.
The savings stem principally
from the smaller working staff
In the regular hospital, there
is an average of 2.71 employees
for each patient. There is only
one employe for every three
patients in the unit.

his 5 to 10-week lost-payment
period is over.
The Morse bill would not give
administrators power to de-
eide how long a man should
wait to receive benefits, and 1t
would allow the worker to col
lect for a complete 80 weeks
after a mandatory Six-week
waiting period ends.
The Board Of Trade would
automatically disqualify any
worker who is fired for good
cause or leaves work voluntari-
ly or refuses a suitable offer
of work. The Commissioners
bill would keep the five to 10
week waiting period but would
enable the worker to collect full
benefits after the period was
over.
TAXES-Both the Commits
sioners' bill and the Board of
Trade measure would decrease
the tax rate leveled against
business firms for the compen-
sation program. The Morse bill
makes no provision for any
reduction.
Inadequacies Admitted
All parties apparently agree
that the benefits paid to work.
ers who are legitimately out Of
work are inadequate. The area
of possible compromiSe-and
disagreement-apparently CEN
ters on who should qualify for
the benefits, and the mechanics
of paying for the program.
New York, for example, is
supposed to have one Of the
most liberal unemployment in
surance laws in the country,
yet its qualifications for bene-
fits are more strict than in
Washington. In New York,
workers who quit voluntarily,
or are fired for good cause, or
refuse suitable employment are
not allowed to receive benefit
checks.
Maryland also has a law
which cancels benefits for any
worker who loses his job
through his own decision or
fault. Virginia's Disqualified
ton formula is about the same
as the Districts law.
Virginia's Practice
In Virginia a man who leaves
his job voluntarily is docked
seven weeks on benefit pay
ments. If he is fired for mis-
conduct or refuses suitable
work, he is docked between sew
en- and IL weeks.
John w. Thompson, jr., pres
Iident of the Board Of Trade,
said in a television interview
yesterday that there was prob
ably some room for compro.
mise" Persons close to the
Senate District Committee fee
that Senator Morse may be
willing Ito give a little" on his
bill and the Commissioners
bill is in itself a form Of COM
promise.
But all parties feel that II
is unlikely that the House com.
mittee will make any great
effort to change the present Law
unless important concession
are made in the direction O.
more strict qualifying require
ments and more moderate tax
ing methods.

amend the present law. The
committee can choose between
three bills, each designed to
satisfy widely different view
points, or come up with a COM
promise measure Of its own.
. But whatever measure the
Senate committee indorseS, it
will probably die in the House
District Committee, the burial
place Of similar measures in
the past several years.
Three bills have been pre-
,sented to the District congress
hsional committee to modernize
the present law, which has
been in effect since January
1885.
Morse Bill Liberal
One bill, sponsored by Sen
ator Morse, Democrat of Ore
gon, would liberalize benefits,
and is supported by organized
labor.
Another represents the buSi-
nessman's view and Is sup
ported by the Metropolitan
Board Of Trade. The third is
a compromise measure, spon-
sored by the District Board Of
Commissioners and the men
who administer jobless bene-
fits IN the city.
The points Of contention are:
BENEFITS-The present law
allows a maximum weekly
benefit of $50 for a maximum
period Of 26 weeks. This is less
than the maximum $35 bene-
fit under Maryland law and
the $32 under Virginia regula-
tions. Administrators of the
Districts jobless program now
write about 5000 benefit
checks worth $214,000 a week.
They say the present maximum
is not adequate under cost-of-
living conditions.
Labor Wants Increase
The labor block wants this
figure increased drastically, to
about $72 a week for 80 weeks.
The Board of Trade would
boost it to $38 a week for 26
weeks.
The Commissioners, taking
the compromise position, would
set the maximum at about $46
a week for about 26 weeks.
The commissioners bill would
make the benefits about so per
cent of the average wage paid
in private industry here during
the fiscal year preceding the
benefit period. The Morse bill
would use the average wage
paid in private industry ano
in Government, and would
make the percentage figure
about sc per cent.
Average Wage $104
The unemployment compen-
sation administrators say the
average wage paid in private
industry in Washington last
year was $94 a week, compared
with an average Of $104 paie
to all workers. private ano
Federal.
QUALIFICATIONS: Unde'

voluntarily, is fired for gooc
cause, or who refuses an offel
of work, is eligible to receive
some benefits. Because he los

ton, he loses benefits for be-
