Greater Southeast Hospital
supporters have to raise 81 mil
lion if the proposed 305-bed
facility is to get under con-
struction this fall.
Raymond ]. McDonough,
president of the hospital foun-
dation, yesterday told fund
raisers and contributors that
the 81 million is needed so the
foundation can apply very,
very soon" to the General
Services Administration for a
$4.4 million Federal matching
funds grant.
The hospital planners have
commitments totaling So, 800. 900
from fund raising attempts
over the past seven years. The
planned hospital will cost $8,-
600, 900.
The financial picture was re-
vealed yesterday to a group
of fund supporters at a special
meeting in the downtown Per-
petual Building. Mr.. McDon-
ough said the meeting was not
called "for the. purpose of beat
ing anyone over the head for
more money" He asked them
to see If a plan could be worked
out which would show the
Government that the 81 mil
lion would be available when
needed.
Another intensified fund
raising campaign is too much
to expect, Mr.. McDonough
said, but he added he believes
the extra money could be
raised by public subscription

Jobs Legal,
Falls Church
Council Told

La Rue Van Meter, Falls
Church city attorney. told the
city council last night, that in
his opinion all Federal employees
may hold city council or school
board seats in Falls Church.
Last week. the Falls Church
Taxpayers League, disclosed its
intention of investigating the
legality of federally employed
city council members holding
their council positions. Four Of
the seven councilmen are en-
ployed by the Federal Govern
ment.
State law bars professional
governmental employees from
holding local office but permits
Federal clerks to do so. Mr..
Van Meter informed the coun-
Gil, however. that the city char
ter permits all Federal en-
ployes to hold local office. The
charter, as special State legis-
lation" has precedence over
Virginia general law, Mr.. Var
Meter said.
Turning to coming matters
the council tabled a proposal
to declare a moratorium until
the end of this year on all re-
zonings within the city.
The purpose of the motion
was to give the council free
dom from facing proposed zon-
ing changes until the overall
economic survey OF Falls
Church now in progress is COM
pleted.
The councilmen concluded,
however, that a moratorium
would be too drastic"

Author Says Pesticides
Can Peril Human Race

Mounting evidence indicates
the human race is endangering
itself through the use Of in

Rachel Carson, the noted BIZ
ologist and author, said yes
terday.
There is a growing need, in
the field of medical geneticS,
TO test these widely used chem
icals for the deleterious effect
they may have on present and
future generations, she said.
Speaking at the Special Lii
braries Association convention
at the Shoreham Hotel, Miss
Carson said that in addition to
the hazard Of acute or chronic
poisoning, there is peril in the
long range genetic effects.
The author of the best-selling
THE Sea Around Us" and other
works, later raised the question
of the link between these sprays
and weed-killers and cancer.
Several such chemicals are
known to be cancer-producing,
she said.

cides have caused chromosome
damage to laboratory organ
isn1s. and that it follows thai
humans can be similarly af-
fected. She said quite q few
human abnormalties can be
caused by comparatively trivial
chromosome damage.

field in medical genetics," she
added. within the past five
or six years techniques have
been developed to study human
chromosomes accurately"
