HOSPITALS TO GET SVRHLl'S WASHINGTON - Rural hospitals and health centers can look for a major share of the hundreds of m il lions' of dollars of medical equip ment to be released by the army and the navy. A policy has Anally been worked out at the surplus prop erty board to assure release of this material for public health use, Arst in areas that have no existing facili ties, second in areas which have in sufficient facilities. So great is the need of rural and small-town hos pitals and clinics that there will be little equipment left for replacement. This policy was achieved only aft er a long and bitter dispute between the surplus property board and Dr. Morris Fishbein. editor of the Jour nal of the American Medical Asso ciation. Fishbein. in whose journal advertise the largest makers of med ical equipment, had urged that this vast volume of surplus material not Infantry company of the 103rd infantry division, V.

Fishbein insisted that huge quantities of certain supplies. ! such as bandages, could not be used because they differed somewhat 1 from accepted standard sizes. However, in a lengthy session at the office of U. S Surgeon General Thomas Parran, Dr. Fishbein Anal ly was won over and even agreed to serve on the overall board which will recomm«id on the disposal of med ical supplies. Three types of equipment will be distributed—public health supplies, surgical and therapeutic instru ments, and pharmaceuticals. A board of public officials and physi- ■ cians headed by Dr. Parran will rec ommend their allocation to Federal Security Chairman Paul McNutt, who will work through the surplus property board. Actual allocation of the supplies within the states will rest with state boards to be com posed of various federal government and state medical officials. Note — Federal officials are worried lest the state boards be come a weak link in the setup. They fear that, in areas of great est need, state groups will not be anxious to aid in the equip ping of Negro clinics and hos pitals. Therefore, an effort will be made to work out rigid re quirements in Washington. No Lower photo shows one of the newly equipped and trained fighting units, as pep talk Is given by Gen.

Chinese Army Speeds Up All-Out War Effort Baldies Hold First Convention C HURCHILL’S N EEDLIN G Backstage fact about the Joe Da vies pilgrimage to London is that originally he was picked to go to ^0 brush Moscow for an intimate talk with Of C0M8 Stalin, but his doctor forbade It. Davies was slated for the Moscow W H trip because he is the only U. S. ambassador since the United States recognized Russia who has been welcome at the Kremlin. This was primarily due to Joe’s book, “Mis sion to Moscow” and the Aim by the same name, which gave a sym pathetic portrayal of Soviet prog ress. Therefore, it was planned to have him impress on Stalin that re cent diplomatic snarls had alienat ed American public opinion. When Davies was unable to go to Moscow, it was decided that Harry Hopkins should do the job instead; while Davies would go to London and urge Churchill to stop needling Russia. This latter job is considered al most as important as the Hopkins trip to Moscow. For several White House advisers are convinced that Churchill, always critical of the Russians, delights in anything which 1 keeps the United States and the So viet in a state of mutual suspicion.
