The Record from Hackensack, New Jersey • 12

THE RECORD. FRIDAY. MAY 28. 1976 A-12 Quinlan reversal asked Commercial aviation honored 1 I 4 ViiA respirator. Her ability to breathe without it raises a number of ethical and legal questions over her care.

And litigation is costly, particularly for a patient like Miss Quinlan, whose care is paid for by Medicaid at rates the nursing home industry considers too low. The court, in its ruling March 31, gave the Quinlans the option to replace Miss Quinlan 's present physicians. Dr. Robert Morse and Dr. Arshad Javed, who originally refused the Quinlans' request to disconnect her respirator.

But the state medical society's Maressa said finding another physician would be difficult. There has been speculation the Quinlans have considered hiring Dr. Julius Korein. a professor of neurology at New York Medical School. However, Korein does not have a license to practice in New Jersey.

Maressa said it was unlikely a nursing home would accept Miss Quinlan if she were cared for by any out-of-state physician without a New Jersey medical license. According to a source close to the Quinlans, St. Clare's has tried to sidestep the Supreme Court decision, and the family believes the hospital and its physicians will implement any procedure to keep Miss Quinlan alive. The source said the family was not aware that attempts to wean Miss Quinlan from the respirator were begun after the court's decision. He said St.

Clare's sought last summer to transfer Miss Quinlan to a nursing home before her case went to court, but could not locate one willing to accept her. sources indicate county officials are reluctant to accept Miss Quinlan. 21 as a patient at the county-run Morris View Nursing Home. The Denville hospital informally contacted the nursing home last weekend after it weaned Miss Quinlan from her respirator. Vincent Maressa.

executive director of the New Jersey Medical Society, agreed that placing Miss Quinlan in another nursing home would be difficult. "Given the attendant publicity, and the possibility of a morass of litigation, it is quite conceivable that a skilled nursing home would be very cautious," Maressa said. The problem, say those familiar with the situation, is the notoriety surrounding the case. Under the best of circumstances, nursing homes do not like to admit terminally ill patients. In addition, they say.

"the nursing home that accepts Miss Quinlan must provide security and possibly staff beyond normal needs. Fred Swanson, administrator for Morris View, said no decision would be made without a careful and thorough review of Miss Quintan's medical needs and the problems stemming from massive publicity. There also is the fear of becoming entangled in a legal battle, sources say, because the case already has gone to the state Supreme Court. The court granted Julia and Joseph Quinlan permission to stop certain types of medical treatment the hospital used to keep their daughter alive. However, the court and none of the medical experts who testified believed Miss Quinlan could survive without the By Rick Levine and Georgette Wagner Salt Writers A petition asking the state Supreme Court to reverse its decision permitting the parents of Karen Anne Quinlan to withdraw medical treatment to their comatose daughter was filed yesterday in Trenton.

Richard Gallagher, who described himself as president of an organization called the Human Life Amendment Group, and Stephen J. Garger of New Milford, the group's secretary-treasurer, said they were concerned that the court decision would lead to more blatant cases of euthanasia. The justices have agreed to discuss the petition Tuesday. If the request is rejected by the court, an appeal will be filed with the United States Supreme Court, according to the group. Meanwhile, Miss Quinlan may have to remain in St.

Clare's Hospital, Denville, despite attempts by her family and the hospital to move her to a nursing home. "Finding another place for Karen would be very hard under any circumstances, but with all the attention it's become virtually impossible," a source close to the Quinlan family said. "We are looking for an institution with real courage because that would be the only one that would take her now." Nursing homes do not offer the intensive medical care provided by a hospital, and the attempt to transfer Miss Quinlan is seen as a move to lessen the chances that extraordinary measures would be used to keep the comatose woman alive.

Even though her older brother leads the leftist forces which day after day have been trading shells with the rightists who control eastern Beirut, she apparently was on friendly terms with her neighbors. Mrs.

al-Atrash, who was separated from her husband, was killed shortly after returning from having lunch with a Christian neighbor. Phalange militiamen delivered her body to the Moslem side of the city. Jumblatt took it to Mokhtara, the family home in central Lebanon, for burial today. The killing postponed for the second time a meeting between Jumblatt and Sarkis to discuss the Christian president-elect's effort to arrange an armistice in the civil war and a roundtable political conference of the leaders of all the warring factions. No increase in the fighting was reported despite fears of Moslem revenge for the killing of Mrs.

al-Atrash. The U.N. force, made up of troops from Austria, Canada, Poland, and Iran, was placed in the truce zone after a disengagement agreement was negotiated in 1974 by U.S. Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger.

In Lebanon, Jumblatt, when told of his sister's death, cried openly but made no accusations. Instead, he called on the largely Moslem leftist forces to restrain "their spontaneous reaction" and not to retaliate against the predominantly Christian rightists. Leaders of the Christian Phalange party denied the killers were from their militia. "Our brothers and colleagues must abide by the' moral values we cherish even though others may not," Jumblatt said. "My sister is a martyr to honor and confidence in others and belief in the possibility of coexistence in Lebanon." Mrs.

Some thought Syria might pressure him for political concessions. Others said he should not commit the prestige of his office to what they regarded as basically a technical matter. Six months ago, to get Syria's agreement to the last extension of the mandate for the U.N. force, the Security Council agreed to the participation of the Palestine Liberation Organization in a debate on the Arab-Israeli situation.

Israel boycotted the debate. Waldheim reported that this time, Syrian President Assad asked only for "clarifications" on the Mideast situation and "intensification of negotiations." He said Assad was "very keen to progress in the way of peace." After Waldheim's announcement, the Israeli Foreign Ministry said Israel's "positive attitude" toward renewal of the mandate "remained valid, provided there were no additional conditions."

Alistair Cooke, in his book, "America," described Kllis Island as "a frowzy monument to the American habit of junking and forgetting whatever it wears out." Upkeep of the main building will be met with a $500,000 annual appropriation, but Sam-martino acknowledged that most of the island's buildings will have to be allowed to deteriorate further.

He said he hopes more money can be found to renovate a theater on the island where ethnic groups might hold festivals. He also wants ferry service from Liberty Park in Jersey City.
