63 Die in Nursing Home Fire
In Ohio; "a Others Saved

There was little commotion
and they all seemed in a daze.
Mr.. French said he and Mr.
Dahman managed to push in q
side door and then saw q nurse
carrying an elderly woman who
couldn't walk. 1t was all dark,
except for the flames and Mr.,
Dahmanss flashlight.
Il picked up the woman and
carried her to the side door,
Mr.. French said. Some other
patients already were huddled
there. An attendant said other
patients still were alive in an
other wing Of the building.
I'VE went to the wing and
there was a man and a lady
standing there. I grabbed the
lady and the truck driver got a
wheelchair.
BY then the flames were so
bad that the side door exit was
blocked and I had to head for
another door. The smoke was
so heavy and my eyes we're
smarting so much that I got
down on the floor and crawled
to the door to get out.
I'VE carried several out by
then, but 1t was impossible to
get any more. :" Mr.. French
said as his voice became
ehoked.
In a matter Of minutes the
whole thing was aflame. I could
see the other people, but /
couldn't help them.
1T was Just too much for my
mind to grasp. We wanted to
get them, but we couldn't. 1t
was such a helpless feeling.
God. I hope I never see
anything like 1t again."

On December 30, 1852, We
wrote in this column:
President Kennedy has done
more to improve the Govern
rnent civil service and as a re-
suit the public service itseli
than any other President since
the enactment of the civil serv-
ice law in 1888"
With the tragic death Of
President Kennedy, Govern
ment employees have lost a
great friend and champion.
And the cause of public Serv-
ice has suffered a grievous loss.
Mr.. Kennedy felt strongly
that the success or failure OF
any administration rested in
great measure on the caliber of
the career people carrying out
its policies. And he felt that
only through giving the Federal
career service the proper in
centives, encouragement and
prestige could it meet the huge
problems of our times.
LIST OF ACHIEVEMENTS
President Kennedy was the
first President in history to ad-
vocate pay raises for Federal
workers.
But he went further than
that. He proposed a pay COM
parability system whereby Gov
eminent salaries would be ad-
justed annually to attain and
keep parity with industry pay.
This was approved by Congress.
Consequently, a permanent
system has been set up for
Government salaries to keep
pace with industry in the future
and to avoid the lags which
have kept Federal pay below par
in past years and hindered the
recruitment and retention of
the best possible people.

tanning their purchasing power

tirement annuities in the flu

discrimination in Government
and give members of minority
groups greater opportunities
for appointments and promo
tons.
Women Also Benefited
Women in Government also
benefited from actions by the
Kennedy administration.
Mr.. Kennedy set UP the
Presidents Commission on the
Status of Women to eradicate
discrimination because of sex
both in the Federal service and
outside employment. He also
directed the csc to take steps
to end this kind of discrimina-
ton in Government.
Based on recommendations
of the Presidents commission
a n d Mr.. Kennedy's directive
itself, the csc issued regula-
tons which ended the system
which had permitted agencies
to designate men only" when
IS ele tin g persons from civil
service registers.
AS a result, agencies can no
longer designate men only"
for a job unless they submit a
sufficiently compelling reason
to satisfy the CSC. The result
is that in more than IS per cent
Of agency requests for job eligi-
bles that now reach the csc
there Is no distinction made
between the sexes.
The csc also is working on
plans to provide part-time
Government job opportunities
for qualified women. Mr.. Ken
nedy also showed his compass
sion and understanding by di-
recting that Government agen-
cies do all they can to hire the
physically handicapped and the
mentally restored.
President Kennedy's devotion
to the ideals of public service
should serve as an inspiration
to all Government employees.
Through their efforts they will
give life and meaning to Mr..
Kennedy's detectives for tn e
American people and the Amer
lean way of life.

NORWALK, Ohio. Nov. %
CAP) .-Sixty-three persons
were killed early today m a fire
that swept through a nursing
home for the aged. infirm and
mentally III. Twenty-four 9TH
ers were rescued.
The blaze destroyed the To-
year-old Golden Age Nursing
Home near Fitchville, is miles
southeast Of here. The one
story concrete building burned
quickly. fed by a tank Of pro-
pane gas and tar roofing. A
brisk wind famed the flames.
There was no explanation for
the origin Of the fire. which
began about 4::30 am.
Gov. James A. Rhodes, who
flew to the scene from Column
bus, ordered a full investigation
by the Ohio Highway Patrol
and the state fire marshars
office.
Amid the stories of horror
elderly persons trapped in their
beds. other crippled or too
weak to walk and still others
crushed by the collapsing
roof = two heroes emerged.
They are Henry Dshman, q
truck driver from Sarber, Pa,
and a 2i-year-old Clifford
French, q graduate student
from Midwestern Baptist Semi
nary In Pontiac, Mich. They
were driving along U. s. High
way $50 when they saw the
flames. They stopped and res
cued many patients and hospi-
tai employees.
Twenty-one patients In all
were saved, in addition to three
nurses. Some suffered second
and third-degree burns and
we're taken to Fisher-Titus Me-
mortal Hospital. Four were list
ed in serious condition.
1t was more than eight hours
after the pre-dawn fire before
firemen and other officials
could begin moving bodies from
the smoldering structure.
Late today. So. bodies had
been recovered and A had
been identified.
Bodies were taken to a
morgue set up in a cafeteria
and gymnasium Of the Fitch
vile Grade School. Identifica-
was a difficult task. Bodies
were badly charred and the
rest homes records were con-
sumed in the fire.
A nursing home supervisor
said many Of the patients had
come from State hospital. More
than half of them had no
known relatives and seldom re-
ceived visitors, she said.
The victims-almost evenly
divided into men and women
were in at least Is rooms Of the
sprawling L-shaped building.
Mr.. Evege said timbers were
failing from the roof as he
tried to rescue some patients.
Some Of the folks came out Of
their rooms. but got confused
and went back to the rooms
again." he said.

President Kennedy's execu-
tive order giving official bar
gaining rights to Government
employe unions in their deal
ings with Federal agencies
marked a new concept in the
Government service. A new era
of labor management relations
in Government was established,
with employees and their union
representatives having a great
er role in determining their
working conditions and policies
involving their employment.
Authorized Dues CheckOff
Mr.. Kennedy also authorized
the voluntary payroll union
dues checkoff system, which
goes into effect in Government
next January l.
Mr.. Kennedy established ap-
peals and grievance procedures
rights for Government en-
'ployes in their agencies. This
also was a new concept in Gov
eminent. Until then. employees
had no appeal or grievance
procedures guaranteed them at
the agency level.
In addition, non-veterans in
Government for the first time
now have the right to appeal to
the Civil Service Commission
from adverse agency actions, as
a result of action by Mr.. Ken

had this right.
A better break for minority
