Establishment of a new Bureau of Medical Social Service in the Health Department, to serve not only the hospitals, but all bureaus of the de partment which deal ^ith individual and family counseling, was pro posed. “The areas of public health nurs ing and medical social service are distinct and independent fields of professional competence,” declared the report. “Clear recognition of this fact would contribute to the effi ciency of other bureaus, would re lieve the Bureau of Nursing of duties which interfere with the qual ity and quantity of its proper work and would place the District in the forefront of public health advance among the municipal health depart ments of this continent.” Appointment of two full-time as sistants to the director of the Ma ternal and Child Health Bureau of the Health Department, with more clinic aides and clerks, was recom mended. Opposes Woman’s Clinic. Among one of the sharpest sug gestions was one on the Woman’s Clinic, operating since 1883 on Georgia avenue N.W. On this subject the survey said: “Health departments should be empowered to license separate clinics as well as hospitals. With this in mind, in the interests of sound health practice, serious consideration should be given tq discontinuing the services of Woman’s Clinic.” This was described as a voluntary clinic “serving patients who could be bet ter cared for in a physician’s office or in a hospital or health depart ment clinic.” “Without questioning the qualifi cations of the physicians,” said the report, "the quality of service in the clinic must suffer from the absence of nursing assistance and adequate equipment and facilities for diag nosis and treatment. The funds raised by the board could be put to more efficient use by donations to some type of health work which is already well organized to give medi cal care to mothers and children.” The report also recommended that the maternity service service provided by the Montgomery Gen eral Hospital “should' be radically reformed or discontinued.” “More hospital beds for maternity cases are needed, particularly for Negroes * * » throughout the Metro politan Area, particularly in Fairlax and Prince Georges Counties,” the report said. “* * * Steps should be taken to provide adequate facilities to care for Negro unmarried mothers, which are at present grossly in adequate. Mental Hygiene Scrutinized. “Community programs for ma ternal and child health and nursery facilities, when under the auspices of private agencies, should be co ordinated with those of other agencies, private and public.” Several proposals for improvement of facilities for mental hygiene were advanced. The Metropolitan Health Council 1 was urged to study mental clinic services of the entire area, try to strengthen those now in the District, and get other clinics established, not only here, but in either Alex j andria or Arlington, and in Prince Georges County. The council was urged to bring about establishment in a local hos i pital of facilities for “residential care of pre-psychotic post-encph ; alitic. and other types of children in need of special group care.” Psychiatric and psychological con sultants, the surveyors recommended, should be made available to homes for unmarried mothers, so as to “favor rather than retard, the emotional adjustment of the clients ol such institutions.” Regarding crippled children, the report recommended the two State health departments and the Dis trict each employ a full-time di rector for the crippled children’s service. Would Remove Barriers Criticizing residential require- j ments for care, the surveyors urged "that regulations which prohibit children in need of care receiving it be abolished. This refers, “it was explained,” to the strict residence requirements in the District and Virginia, and also, in Virginia, to the requirement for referral by a physician or certification by a wel fare department.” The age limit for the Arlington County Clinic should be raised, it was proposed, from 16 to 21 years i of age. The District of Columbia was urged to get adequate funds to carry out the rehabilitation center planned by the Bureau of Maternal CARDINAL GRIFFIN AT WHITE HOUSE—Bernard Cardinal Griffin, Archbishop of Westhiinster, England, discussed the world food crisis with President Truman at the Whitf House yesterday. —AP Photo. and Child Welfare. It was also urged that financial arrangements be made so that children in all of the metropolitan area may benefit. More attention should be given to children with cerebral palsy, the report recommended, suggesting joint action by the two states and the District. • Local chapters of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, together wdth the official programs, should plan for meeting epidemic and current needs, the report pro posed. Setting up a curative workship for the District, to be used by both Maryland and Virginia, was recom mended as a field for new private agencj or agencies. Cites Health Center. The Child Health Center at Chil dren's Hospital, financed by the Child Welfare Society and the Corp munity War Fund, was said to pro vide "child health and child guidance service.” "This center is well housed, wdth adequate cubicles, doctors’ and nurses’ offices and a playroom, with an administrator, a medical director, the time of one and a half nursing assistants and a parttime psychol ogist. Additional medical service is provided by paid physicians. There are daily sessions for white and Negro clients, although the bulk of the clientele is Negro. "The work seems to be conducted on a high plane,” said the report, "but though the center was orig jinally designed primarily for dem ;onstration purposes, its teaching possibilities have not been well developed. Faulty Integration Seen. “This center seems to be rendering a valuable community service. The program is, however, not well inte grated with other community serv ices and there is some question in | regard to integration with Chil ! dren's Hospital services, such as medical social service, training of physicians and nurses and medical students. “This might easily be developed into a demonstration center, with emphasis on teaching and greater development of child guidance and mental hygiene. If this is done, the work of the center should be more closely integrated w'ith the Chil dren’s Hospital mental hygiene pro j gram, with the clinics of the depart ment of health and with the home ■ service of the Instructive Visiting ■ Nurse Society." The three men responsible for the | survey are w’idely known as experts j in their fields. They are Dr. D. E. A. j Winslow of New' Haven, Conn., pro fessor emeritus, department of pub lic health, Yale University; Dr. Ira V. Hiscock, chairman of the depart ment of public health of Yale, w;ho j also is vice president of the National ! Health Council, and Dr. Claude W. Munger, administrator of St. Luke’s ’Hospital, New York City, who is | president of the American* College of Hospital Administrators. War, Navy Chiefs Go to Annapolis And West Point The Secretaries of War and Navy, chief opponents in the fight over merger of the armed forces, will show off their respective academies to each other today and Saturday.

Two Prince Georges Youths Convicted In Assault Case James Clarence Raymond Wash- ' ington, 16, and Willie Gray Taylor, 15, colored, of Huntsville iMd.l, were found guilty yesterday of criminal assault on a 19-year old Seat Pleasant girl last March 17 by Associate Judges Charles C. Mar- j bury and John B. Grey, jr., who’ conducted the two-day trial in the \ Prince Georges County Circuit Courti in Upper Marlboro. The sentence will be imposed at 3 p.m. Friday, it was announced. Under Maryland law. the two: youths face a maximum sentence | of death by hanging or life im-1 prisonment. Fiancee of Veteran. The convicted youths, with two1 others, were charged with assaulting the girl a total of five times, after S the assailants came upon her andj her fiance, Donald Beyer, 20, a! former Coast Guardsman and vet eran of 27 months of sea and convoy duty, as they were seated in their parked automobile on Sheriff road, near Huntsville. In addition to testimony from the girl and Mr. Beyer, State’s Attorney A. Gwynn Bowie also produced signed statements by both men and a 12-gauge shotgun and a .22-caliber rifle, which were allegedly used to cover the victim’s companion. Insanity Plea Rejected. A plea of insanity for Washington was ruled out by the judges, who contended he was sane at the time of the offense, when the plea was filed and at the time of the trial. 1 Their decision, they said, was based on testimony on Monday by Dr. George H. Preston and Dr. Andrew C. Gillis of the Maryland State Board of Mental Hygiene, who testified that Washington was "not legally insane” and had "ability to distinguish between right and wrong.” The trial of the other two colored youths, Walter Ross, 21, and his brother, Charles. 20, of Brightseat. will be held in the Anne Arundel County Circuit Court in Annapolis. No date has been set, it was learned from Attorney Benjamin F. Sears, their counsel, who requested a change of venue from Prince Georges County. Three Liquor Stores Robbed In Hour; Grocery Looted Three liquor stores were robbed of $1,270 in less than an hour last night.

CardinalGriffinLeavei For Chicago After Talk With Truman Bernard Cardinal Griffin, Arch bishop of Westminster, England, left for Chicago today to visit Samuel Cardinal Stritch, after a day in Washington that included a call at the White House and a chat with President Truman. The\cardi nal left National Aircort at 7:55 a.m. Cardinal Griffin gave a press con ference yesterday at the Apostolic Delegation, 3339 Massachusetts ave nue N.W. He said that one of his reasons in coming to Washington was to see the Most Rev. Amleto Giovanni Cicogani, the apostolic delegate, who was his professor of canon law in Rome in 1925 to 1927. Asked about food, he said, “Europe wants all the food it can get from the countries which have it.” Of the international political situation he said, "The one obstacle to peace is the difference between the East and the West,” adding, “I’ve said that many times before." Enjoying Trip. He said he was enjoying his trip m spite of its whirlwind character. He came to this country, he said, primarily to receive the honorary degree conferred on him by Ford ham University Saturday and was now making calls on the American cardinals and a few of the bishops. In Philadelphia, he said, “I visited 15 places in three hours and spoke in every one of them.” The cardinal was asked if he had Irish ancestry and he said not that he knew of. “The tombstones of my great grandparents show they were born in the English midlands,” he said. “President de Valera (of Eire) told me that Griffin is a name that can be Irish, Welsh or English. I be lieve I am all English.” “Now, now.” said Archbishop Ci cogani, who had entered the room, “don't make an Irishman of him. He's English.” Cleanup Drive Extended Because of unfavorable weather; conditions recently, the cleanup i campaign of Mount Rainier has been extended from May 18 through May 25, Chairman Clarence B.
