Malpractice
Judgment
Is Upheld

The United States Court of
Appeals yesterday affirmed q
jury's $l20,O0O judgm e n
against an Arlington physician
who was accused in a malprac-
tice suit Of having negligently
failed to detect a blood condi-
ton which permanently dam
aged an infants brain.
The blood condition of the
child, Michele Neyland, was
the result of a blood problem
in the mother, Mrs. Herbert
Neyland Of the 200 block Of
North Pennsylvania avenue,
Falls Church.
The court said there was suf-
ficient evidence at the trial to
uphold the jury's finding that
DR.. Weldon A. Price, with Of
fices at Thirteenth and North
Hudson streets, had been neg
ligent in not giving additional
blood tests to Michele after
the child showed continuing
convulsions and jaundice sub
sequent to her birth.
The convulsions and jaun-
dice, the court said, are recog-
nized signs of erythroblastosis
fetalis, which causes BRAIN
damaging bile to be deposited
into the blood. The bile is
injected into the blood by the
liver in an attempt by the body
to correct Rh blood factor prob
lens incurred between Rh posi-
tive and Rh negative parents
in a prior pregnancy. Mr.. and
Mrs. Neyland have opposing
Rh factors in their blood. The
court Salo q recognized ana ef-
fective treatment of the in
fant's malady is a full transfu-
sion to replace the unhealthy
blood.
The court said the negligence
rule for doctors Is whether the
mistake or error resulted from
a failure to comply with recog-
nized standards of medical care
exercised by physicians in the
same speciality under similar
circumstances in the general
area in which the physician
practices.
The doctor alleged that he
was not negligent, and that
there was insufficient evidence
at the District Court trial to
Justify the verdict.

Senate Unit Restores
Most of Postal Funds

The Senate Appropriations
Committee today restored to
the Treasury-Post Office ap-
preparation bill about two
thirds Of a $92 million House
cut, which postal officials
warned would require curtail-
ment Of some mail service.
Postmaster General Day tes-
titled that under the House bill
he would have 10 consider the
unpleasant possibility OF end
ing Saturday deliveries or cur
failing delivery TO new homes
and offices.
The most important item for
the postal service is the "op-
erations' fund, in which the
House made a $69.8 million cut.
OF this amount the Senate
committee restored $50 mil
lion. Only two days ago a sub
committee which studied the
bill had recommended restora-
ton Of $50 million.
Postal officials indicated yes
terday they could get by IL the
bulk Of the subcommittee pro-
posal were retained.
But the big question now is
whether the Senate will be able
10 retain all OF this $50 mil
lion restoration in conference
with the House. Ordinarily
conferees split the difference
on money items. This would
mean final restoration OF
something less than $50 mil
lion.
Senator Robertson, Democrat

bill, said the Senate figures left
