PORTLAND, Jan. 37,-m Physicians, defending against the federal government's monopoly charge In pre-paid care, slapped today at what they called "inter ference" by the National Hospital association. Dr. Lester M. Lehrbach, Rose burg, said in federal court that the association "seem to feel that the records belong to them in stead of us. They are continually asking for information which takes considerable time to dig out and give to them." He said he had so much trouble collecting that he no longer ac cepts the association's pre-pay-ment tickets from his patients. He said that in 1944 or 1945 two of his patients injured in a Roseburg lumber operation were moved to Portland and he had trouble collecting his fee. 'I was very irate when I found the two men had gone to Portland," he said. Philip Marcus, head counsel for the government, said it was the lumber company, not the hospi tal association, which moved the men. Dr. R. M. McKeown, Coos Bay, also attacked the National Hos pital association.
