f 'lam f ®r qi edical Care of Aged
WASHINGTON (AP)—America's "general practitioner of the year" yesterday saw "a
form of blackmail" in the legislation endorsed by the American Medical Association to
finance medical care for aged persons unable to pay for it.
But he doesn't like the broad, Social Security approach favored by President-elect
John F. Kennedy, eitheE, and thinks the states and the doctors should do the job.

Accused Of
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.(/P)
—Britain injected the issue of
Soviet colonialism into Gen
eral Assembly debate yester
day over Premier Khrush
chev's demand for immediate
independence of. all peoples
living under colonial and UN
trusteeship systeMs.
The move brought angry So
viet charges that Britain was POk
ing _in to the internal.affairs of the
Soviet Union and resorting to cold
war tactics. The clash Marked
the opening of debate expected to
last more than a week.
Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
ister Valerian A. Zorin assailed
the U.N. trusteeship system as
an outmoded and an ineffec
tive instrument of the colonial
powers and declared it must be
scrapped.
David Ormsby-Gare, British
minister of state for foreign af
fairs, accused Zorin of using the
assembly debate "simply as an
other occasion for vitifyin.r , my
country and its allies, awl for
carrying the cold %val. into Africa,
in the hope that perhaps it can be
hotted up to its advantage."
Ormsby-Gore said that since
1939 about 500 million people,
formerly under British rule, had
achieved freedom and inde
pendence.
In that same period, he added,
"the whole or part of six coun
tries. with a population of 22 mil
lion. have been forcibly incorpor
ated into the Soviet Union. They
include the world's three newest
colonies -- Lithuania, Estonia and
Latvia."
Congolese Pursue

day was ordered to pursue and

trice Lumumba before he can
reach his political stronghold of
Stanleyville. His flight raised the
lineal of civil war in this troubled
nation.
Lumumba drove past sleepy
Congolese soldiers watching his
villa Sunday night, leaving be
hind a statement saying he was
going to Stanleyville for the fu

But his political foes. President

"GI BLUES"
STARTS TOMORROW
Dr. James T. Cook, 44, of Mar
ianna, Fla., made Lis comments
at a news conference shortly aft
er the AMA had• named him the
14th recipient of its annual award
to a general practitioner "who
has made an outstanding contri
bution to his community."
Cook was asked his view of
recently enacted legislation un
der which medical care for the
aged unable to pay for it would
be - provided by federal grants
matched by state funds.
°That's a form of blackmail—l
don't approve of it," he said, ex
plaining that he meant that such
!a system forces a state to put up
equal money in order to get a
grant from the federal govern
ment.
Actually, the new law fixes the
federal share at at least 50 per
. cent but can go up to 80 per cent
in states, of lowest per capita in
come. And in many cases states
won't have to put up a cent to get
the extra old age assistance mon
ey, being credited with funds they
already are spending for public
assistance.
But, almost in the same
breath, he said he is strongly
opposed, as is the AMA, to pro
posals by Kennedy and others
that medical care for all the
aged be financed through Social
Security taxes.
Cook told reporters he believes
it's the responsibility of states
and local communities to take
care of the hospitals while doctors
should provide their services for
the indigent, aged or otherwise.
If a state finds it cannot do so,
he said, it could then appeal to
the federal government for aid.
But he stressed that he is against
the federal government taking the
initiative and the states accepting
"anything that was offered" be
cause "this makes it a political
football."
Cook said extending Social Se
curity lo cover medical care for
the aged "would have provided
:his only to • people drawing a
Social Security check,"

Apalachin Sentences
Reversed by Court
NEW YORK (RP)—A federal appeals court yesterday

had boasted of the convictions, was soundly criticized for its
handling of the case from start to finish.
