Democrats' School
Aid Bill Stalled
Washington U.R) The drive
to bring the Democratic. 51,600,
000,000 school aid bill to the
House floor was stalled at least
temporarily today.
The House Rules committee
began working over the bill
Tuesday. And so far, the com
mittee showed no signs of letting
it go.
However, House leaders hoped
the bill can be brought to the
floor for a vote next week. ,
The bill calls for federal
grants of $400,000,000 a year to
states for school construction
during the next four years. The
administration wants to give the
states $1,250,000,000 oyer a five
year period. The Republicans
have pledged to fight for the
administration' plan.
Any school aid plan is certain
to run into a segregation fight
on the House floor. Proposed
amendments would bar federal
funds to segregated schools.

Undergraduate
Doctors Said Lacking
Chicago (U.R) There ' are
more newly .graauaxea aocxors
still in training than there are
students in undergraduate med
ical schools, the Council on Med
ical Education and Hospitals of
the American Medical Associa
tion reports.
The council said the situation
is unique among the professions.
The councl's 1954-55 annual
report showed 29,560 young
physician graduates serving as
interns or residents in 1,364 hos
pitals. That's more than the num
ber of students in undergraduate
medical schools, the council said,
and indicates "the magnitude of
the growth over the past 10
years."
The pay for interns in hos
pitals connected with medical
schools ran $37 a month com.
pared with $84 the previous
year, the council said. In hos
pitals not affiliated with schools,
the monthly pay is $136 a month,
$1.00 more than the previous
year.
However, the council said, the
pay seems to have no effect on
the prospective intern's choice of
a hospital for training.

Mice Parachuted
Toward Nude Singer
Portsmouth, England U.R)
Peaches Page the nude had
mouse trouble again Tuesday
night
Miss Page, who bills herself
as "The Delicious Singing
Nude," ran into trouble in Lon
don last week when a mouse ran
across her foot and she streaked
for the .wings in defiance of Brit
ish law.
British law says an actress
may appear nude on the stage if
she does not move.
Tuesday night several men
dressed as clergymen parachut
ed two white mice onto the
stage from a box overlooking the
delicious nude.
The management dropped the
curtain before Miss Page could
break the law aeain. And also
before the "clergymen" discov
ered to be sailors in disguise
rnulri neDDer her with the pea
shooters they had brought with
them.
Displeasure Told
Over Ford Grants
Portland (U.R) Chancellor
John R. Richards of the state
system of higher education yes
terday expressed mild displeas
ure with the Ford Foundation
for its failure to include North
west medical schools in its re
cent $500,000,000 grant to pri
vate colleges and hospitals.
Dr. Richards told the State
Board of Higher Education meet-
ine he wasn't disgruntled be
cause public schools didn't re
ceive Ford grants. But he point
ed out that public medical
schools were particularly de
pendent upon private income.
"The unfortunate effect of the
Ford Foundation formula for
medical education is to deny any.
funds for the support of medical
teaching and research in the en
tire Northwest, for this area has
no nrivate medical schools." he
said.
Of all the hospital beds in the
U.S. about 71 per cent are op
erated by the government 44
per cent by the states; 14 by the
U.S.,and 13 by city-county.
