Civil Defense Advisory Group, To wn Board Coordinate Work The Brookhaven Civil Defense Advisory Group has been work- ing with the Town Board month l y since November , 1960 , coordinating the responsibility of the Town Board with that of the Brookhaven Town Civil Defense. This was considered necessary as Civil Defense is the duty and responsibility of the Supervisor and the Town Board in serving as the governing body to be prepared to augment , supp lement , and expand the present government when an emergency arises. Each month the meetings have been held at the Patchogue Hotel. In December 1960 the rescue truck and equipment was discus- sed. In January 1961 the functions of the Medical Services of Civil Defense was taken up. In Febru- ary the fire service was gone over and its connection with Civil De- fense. In March the welfare sec- tion of Civil Defense was review- ed. In April the Advisory Group reviewed the Radiological Divis- ion , with the civilian appointees , county and town personnel present. In June the police and auxiliary police was the topic. It was noted that the cooperation of the police and auxiliary police was excellent, In all the above meetings Brookhaven Civil Defense repor- ted it had received excellent coop- eration from the county and the state Civil Defense, and also from the various branches of the town and county government , whose functions tied in with Civil De- fense. The recommendations of the Advisory Group to the Town Board at each of these meetings have been adopted or are receiving ser- ious consideration from the Town Board. These meetings have been fruitful in developing cooperation and understanding between the Town Board , county and Civil De- fense functions, the Advisory Group said in a release. These meetings have been edu- cational to the Advisoi v Group. Town Board and the various bran- ches of Civil Defense in under- standing the problems with which each of the various organizations is faced. The Advisory Group said it was heartwarming for the Brookhaven Civil Defense to re- ceive the excellent cooperation of the Town Board and the county throughout all these meetings.

County to S ettle Welfare Cases ' Hospital Bills RIVERHEAD — The Board of Supervisors on Monday imple- mented state legislation that au- thorizes the County Welfare De- partment to pay 75 per cent of outstanding claims owed to Suf- folk' s nine voluntary hospitals for the care of Welfare patients. By a unanimous vote of the board , $412 , 000 in back bills are to be paid to the voluntary, non- profit hosp itals of the county. In April , the county law of the State of New York regarding pay- ments to the hospitals by the wel- fare department , was amended to permit the payment of bills in ad- vance of audit , for charges and services rendered welfare patients. Presenting the case tor the hospitals were Stanley G. Iloran , president of the board of directois of Southside Hosp ital in Bay- Shore , and John Halleran , boaid member of both St. Charles Hos- pital in Port Jefi' eison and Good Samaritan Hospital in West lsli p. Both urged the supervisor^ to per- mit a 75 per cent payment , as approved by the State Le«islatuie , rather than the 50 per cent writ- ten into a proposed county resolu- tion. Mr. Horan and Mr. Halleran said that their hosp itals necessari- l y operated at a deficit because of the large sums owed them by the welfare department , and that they had to borrow money for operat- ing expenses. Voluntary hospitals , Mr. Horan explained , have no working capital and are solely de- pendent upon the monies received for patient care. The per diem charge for welfare patients is established b y the Joint Hospital Rate Commission and is arrived at on the basis of each hospital' s annual operating costs. Hospitals represented at the board meeting and their claims against the Welfare Department as of June 30 this year were : Southampton Hospital , $81 , 700; Brookhaven Memorial, $60 ,000; Southside , $99 ,000; Central Suf- folk , $28 , 000 ; Mather Memorial $20 , 000 ; Huntington , $80 ,000 ; Eastern Long Island , $14 , 500; Good Samaritan , $13 , 000; and St. Charles , $15 , 000. Commissioner of Welfare John L. Barry sympathized with the re- quest of the hospitals and advised the board that he favored the 75 per cent payment. Delays in pay- ments are caused by the necessity of intensive investigation into the eligibility of patients to receive funds , he said. ¦¦^¦¦¦¦¦^¦¦¦¦Ha^BHH^^HDBH^BHHlH^HI^H^HIHI^HIHnMHHi ^nBHMnHflHHBHHHB ^H^^I^^BBHHHH CT 7 I HHHBflBHPV*flBMHBBflB3HBH6£9BBSBSSBi!ra^B5 HwS r \7 r ' J JW SJB HB B^™ with Remot e Control L A A 2HHHPB H U H HHH^^ A JL j . * \\T 1 \ r \ J=4 / \ ^ t v/^ / \ vr 5 \* U / Automatic W aSIier \from bedroom... to living room... to any room! / 1 2-lb.

They escaped with $1 , 896 in cash and $556 in check s accordink to investigating State Police. State Police said the robbery took place about 9:30 p. m. as the assistant manager of the depot , Josep h Mitchell of Selden , and one of the drivers , Francis Bach of Bellport , were counting the day ' s receipts from the bakery route men. The two Krug men had almost completed their count when the masked bandits , armed with a shotgun , forced their way in , de- manded the money, and fled. An alarm was immediately is- sued by State Police , describing the robbers as young men , one about six feet tall , the other about five feet , eight inches m height.

KEATING Despite heartening signs of im- provement in the Nation ' s econo- mic health during the past few weeks , many serious long range problems in the economy remain. Chief among these are the disap- pointing failure of employment figures to keep pace with the gen- eral recovery, and the continuing threat of inflation. I believe that these two factors are related. We have had some success in the past 10 years in holding down the lid on inflation , but we have not been able to establish prices at a level that will assure a maxi- mum flow of goods in the maricct place. This means that we have not been taking full advantage of our improved technology, so that e\ en in comparatively good times an unacceptably high degree of joblessness continues. • /steam.

'n J i >r the va ' i'\ <> L s-aie^maiisl lp, but I think that even richer re- wards can be reaped by urging merchants to advertise and to pro- vide goods at lower p rices . Sales- manship will help, but a genei al reduction in prices is the thing that will persuade the consumer to start spending his dollai- . Another area in which we must fight inflation concerns the Feder- al deficit , which seems to go up e\ery time the Administration sends a message to Congie». I am disturbed o\er this '' , ^pend to- day, boirow tomonow \ economic policy. The Administration has been talking about tax cuts tor m \t year at the same time it is m- In the li g ht of these factors , I think that government oug ht to launch a massive campaign to en- courage merchants to expand their sales by lowering prices. This would both knock the blocks out from under the threat of infla- tion , and produce the consumer demand that would get our factor- ies and shops running at full Hating the Fedeial buduet. This is about as consistent as hoping that the grass will grow whil e at the same time praying that it will not rain. Washingto n
