Officials of 9 Hospitals
And D.C. Confer Today
On Indigent Payments
A system for reimbursing nine
private hospitals here for the care
of indigent patients, was to be
worked out today at a conference
among officials of the Health De
partment and the hospitals.
An appropriation of $735,000 was
made available in the 1949 District
suply bill, effective tomorrow, to re- :
imburse private hospitals for tax
eligible patients at the rate of $9
per day.
Dr. George C. Ruhland, District
Health Officer, has invited to the
conference Assistant Health Officer
Dr. Daniel L. Seckinger; several of
his own staff, Walter Fowler, Dis
District budget officer: A. R. Pilker
ton, District auditor; Robert Bryant,
executive secretary of the Hospital
Council and the nine hospital su
perintendents.
To Clarify Act.
Hospital spokesmen, who recently
have said they face a combined defi
| cti of about $1,000,000 for this cal
endar year, are hoping for reim
bursement for the indigent care.
Some sources had hoped the funds
would be available for indigent
patient care for costs incurred dur
ing the 1948 fiscal year. But other
officials, interpreting the language
of the 1949 supply bill, were repre
sented as saying the $735,000 can
be spent only on care extended in
the fiscal year beginning tomorrow.
This was expected to be clarified
at the meeting today.
Dr. Ruhland said he hopes to
arrange for uniformity in account
ing for the indigent care at all hos
pitals. a system of eligibility and
procedure for making payments.
Six Added This year.
Only three hospitals previously
have had contracts with the Health
Department for reimbursement for
care of indigents. But the appro
priation bill and report added six
more, making a total of nine. The
three original one are Casualty,
Emergency and Children’s Hospitals.
The six new ones now eligible for
such contracts are Columbia, Epis
copal, Georgetown, George Wash
ington, Providence and Garfield.
The appropriation bill provides
that the hospitals receive $9 or cost
for indigent care. But in virtualy
every institution the actual cost is
known to be higher.
The cost of an adult day's care of
non-tax-eligible patients in the 11
private hospitals in this area was
estimated yesterday at $14.48. This
was the figure on which the hospi
tals have asked the Budget Commit
tee of the Community Chest Fed
eration to allocate $1,153,000 to take
care of non-tax-eligible, indigent
patients in the 1949 calendar year.
British Chief of Malaya
Reported Due for Removal
By th* Associated Pres*
LONDON, June 30.—A British
government source said yesterday
that Sir Edward Gent will be re
lieved as high commissioner of the
violence-swept Malayan Federation.
'The question of a successor already
is under consideration, the in
formant added.
Gent has been criticized for his
handling of guerrilla outbreaks in
which an estimated 50 persons have
lost their lives since mid-May.
British authorities blame the dis
orders on Communist leadership.
Gent is due to arrive in London
Friday night from the Asiatic col
ony. It has been announced that
he was returning here for consulta
tions. A Colonial Office spokesman
made no comment when asked if he
would return to Malaya after the
talks.
The spokesman said there were
•‘adequate numbers" of British and
empire military forces on the spot
to carry out the British govern
ment's intention of wiping out the
guerrillas.

Court of Claim* to Rule
On Judge Johnson's Pay
ty Aiiociatcd Pr«»
The United States Court of
Claims has taken jurisdiction in the
petition of former Federal Judge
Albert W. Johnson of Pennsylvania'
for back pay and restoration of sal
ary.
The court’s decision yesterday was
only on the legal question of wheth
er it had the right to consider the
petition.
But it marked a momentary vic
tory for Judge Johnson and a de
feat for the Justice Department i
which had held that the court did
not have jurisdiction.
A court clerk said that the next
move will be for the court to hold a
hearing on the merits of Judge
Johnson’s request.
Judge Johnson, who resigned as
judge of the Middle Pennsylvania
District while his judicial conduct
: was under investigation by the
[House Judiciary Committee, is ask
ing for *24,166.65 in back pay and
restoration of the *10,000-a-year sal
ary he was getting at the time he
