Overdue Expansion

In the 16 years since George WASH
ington University Hospital at Washing
ton Circle opened its doors, the demands
of community service have steadily in
creased the need for improved and
expanded facilities. 1t is gratifying,
therefore, that House District subcom-
mittee has approved legislation, conso-
nant with Federal assistance to other
Washington hospitals, to provide $25
million grant to help bear the costs of
SIS million addition.
These funds would increase the ca
pacity of the hospital by 100 beds, and
provide modernized surgical and related
facilities which are needed to enhance
both the teaching and the treatment
functions Of the institution The bill to
provide Federal assistance was drafted
by the Department of Health, Education
and Welfare, after Secretary Ribicoff
became convinced of the urgency of the
project. Especially heartening also is the
support Of House Speaker Mccormack,
who has maintained continuing inter
est in the welfare of hospitals in the
Nations Capital, and who frequently has
expressed pride in the role which Con-
greSS has played in their growth and
development.

Koshmir Aqoin

The United Nations Security Coun-
Gil has done the sensible thing in
postponing debate on the perennial
question of Kashmir. Pakistan had re-
queSted the Council to deal with the
subject on an urgent basis, but 1t failed
to show the need for such a procedure
at this time, and so the matter has
been put on the shelf until after midas
general elections few weeks from now.
According to the Pakistani COM
plant, some Of midas most prominent
political leaders, including Defense Min
lister Krishna Menon, have recently
voiced threats to resort to military
action-aS In the case of Portuguese
Goa-to Hibernate" Kashmir. Moreover,
again according to the complaint, these
threats have been followed up by
menacing Indian troop movements. In
reply, however, midas representative
before the Council has denied that
any such movements have been made
against Pakistan, and he has flatly
asserted that his country will not
use force" to take over the disputed
territory.
This complex and potentially ex-
ploSive issue, of course, is familiar
one to the U. N. Ever since the late
194Os, 1t has frequently been placed on
the Security Councils agenda, but no
progress worthy of the name has yet
been made toward mutually satisfac-
tory settlement. PakiStan, which holds
a third Of the territory as against the
two-thirds held by India, has been
asking over the years for plebiscite to
let Kashmir's people (predominantly
MoSlem, as are the PakiStaniS) decide
for themselves which of the two coun-
tries they wish to belong to. BY way
of contrast, India, which is predomin-
antly Hindu, and which feels that it
is legally, morally, culturally and his
torically entitled to regard the territory
as part Of itself, has steadfastly refused
to assent to such plebiscite.
PakiStan thus has the advantage
Of the argument in at least one i'm
portant reSpect-willingness to accept
the decision of a free and democratic
vote. Still, the Kashmir issue is too
involved to be reduced to simple black
and-white terms in which one side may
accurately be described as wholly right
and the other as wholly wrong. The
debate in that sense is likely to con-
can be hoped for Is that 1t will not
explode into warfare while the search
for a peaceful settlement goes on.

Free-WheeIinq Brokers

The majority of investment brokers
in Washington are capable and trust
worthy. 1t is a shocking fact, however,
that the lack Of adequate local control
and regulation has made the District of
Columbia mecca for shady and incom-
petent operators promoters whose lack
of experience, lack Of resources or
questionable practices make them poor
and often dangerous risks for investors.
No less than third of our investment
firms possess deficiencies which would
diSqualify them in other Jurisdictions.
Intensive Investigations of Wash
ington dealers in stocks and bonds are
now under way by Federal and private
agencies. But for the most part there
is little public awareness of the dangers
which still exist. In the first of a series
OF articles beginning in The Star today,
Reporter Miriam Gutenberg places these
dangers in perspective-thes hoddy and
unethical practices, the losses of savings
which have resulted from them, the
root causes of the problem, and some
of the remedies. We believe there is
much to commend these disclosures to
our readers.
We believe, too, that these articles
demonstrate clearly the need for some
form of corrective legislation. 1t is
significant that throughout the Nation
only two States and the District of
Columbia lack local laws-the so-called
Blue Sky Laws"-which are designed
to safeguard those who invest their
savings in stocks and bonds

Confirming Mr.. McCone

When the last speech had been
made, the Senate voted II to IL to
confirm John A. McCone as the new
director Of the Central Intelligence
Agency. An announcement of the posi-
tions of Is absentee Senators revealed
that the vote would have been "a to Is
had they been present.
This overwhelming vote of conf
dence in Mr.. McCone, as he takes over
his new and very important duties,
should be reaSsuring to the American
people. This is the more desirable since
there seems to have been a studied
effort in some SegmentS Of the press
to discredit him and destroy public
confidence in his fitness for the job.
The IL Senators who actually voted
against Mr.. McCone raised variety
! of objections he lacked expert
ence in intelligence work, that he is
temperamentally unsuited for the post,
that his views on foreign policy are
not sufficiently well known, etc. All of
these points were effectively answered,
we thought, in the course of the Senate
debate. Even more effectively dealt
with was the principal club used to
belabor hin-an alleged conflict Of
interest.
This alleged conflict grew out Of
the fact that Mr.. McCone Is large
stakeholder in several corporations-in
short, that he is man of some wealth.
Senator Russell, chairman of the
Armed Services Committee, which held
hearings on the McCone nomination,
answered this by pointing out that the
CHA, as distinguished from the Defense
Department, for example, has only
minor procurement functionS-that 1t
is not engaged to any significant degree
in negotiating purchase contracts with
firms in which Mr.. McCone might have
a stock interest. Senator Symington I'M
derscored this by calling attention to
the fact the general counsel of CHA,
in an opinion concurred in by the
Justice Department, had held that no
conflict of interest existed. Finally,
Senator Russell stated that Mr.. McCone
was Every frank" in discussing this
matter before his committee; that while
the nominee did not think there was
any conflict, he nevertheless offered
to dispose of his holdings, If the COM
mittee wished, as he had done upon
becoming chairman of the Atomic En-
ergy Commission under President Eisen-
hover The decision against requiring
Investment, Senator Russell emphasized,
was the committees, not Mr.. McCones.
It seems to us that it is desirable
to have this fact on record so that Mr..
McCone, in undertaking what at best
will be a difficult assignment, will not
be handicapped by any doubt in the
public mind as to his integrity or his
attitude with respect to the conflict
of-intereSt question.

Salaries and Rents

The President is to be COM

stand in improving conditions

recognition of their unions,
with employe representatives
to assist in solving grievances
Is an advancement in person.
mel administration. Also,
granting non veteran en-
ployes the same rights of ap-
peal as employees who are war
veterans is a belated correc-
ton of an obvious diScrim-
nation as well as a cause of
decentralization.
The President is seeking a
Government pay raise
avowedly to make salaries
comparable for similar work
in private industry. On it's
face this is splendid. But it
may create a vicious finan-
cial circle resulting in little
or no real increase. Thou
sands of Government workers
must rent houses or apart
ments. Many of these are at
the mercy of landlords, who
rent by the month and re-
fuse to give long term or an
nual leases. They may charge
rents all out of proportion
to their capital investment.
Thus salary increases not
only may add an unfair fl
nancial burden upon the ten
ant but may abet initiation.
The thoughtless answer is to
let the tenant move. But
move where? Can he afford
the cost of moving? How does
he know that the new land
lord will prove any better
than the one he left? Actual
ly, competition in construc-
ting dwellings is remote in
obtaining a fair rent for the
individual tenant, particular
ly for low and average rentals
in the Metropolitan Area.
One answer is to establish
a permanent rent-control
agency for this area. 1t would
protect the capital investment
of the landlord and the fl
nancial interest of the tenant.
Today the latter may be the
victim of a financial squeeze

Time for q Chonqe?

A Republican Party that sometimes
seems determined to preserve its mi
nority status might find a prescription
for better political health in the advice
offered by former President Eisenhower
to the G. o. P. Embarrassing dinners.
For the Gettysburg SOLDIER farmer
is more impatient than many of his
party colleagues with the dreary Won
and-lost record of Republicanism in the
last thirty years. Because of his own
personal popularity-a factor which he
did not mention-the G. o. P. has
scored its only two presidential vic
tories in three decades. Over the same
period, it has controlled Congress for
only four years and it's onetime pre-
dominance in State capitolS and city
halls is merely a memory.
In his discussion of this record and
what might be done to improve the
party's showing in the future, General
Eisenhower has spoken some basic
truths and ones that are no less COM
polling simply because they are virtu-
ally self-evident. AS any realistic poll
