pointments Of the physicians to- the poor. The

have been In Office for long time and the
health officer thought there should be q change.
IL will be recalled that some time ago
he recommended that term Of service
OF these physicians be limited to three
years This would give the young graduates
an opportunity to get a foothold in their pro
fession- The Comm issioners approved this
recommendation and the changes have been
expected since then every day The press Of
business. however, made the matter hang fire
until yesterday, when the subject was taken up
and discussed at length. There were many ap-
plicants. all with more or less professional
or political backing, and the Commits
sioners found themselves in a quandary
as to whom to appoint. They finally
decided to appoint twenty physicians and d.
vide the District into twenty sections. The pay
will be reduced to $50 per month and the diff
ference will compensate for the additional men.
The appointments made are follows: ]. W.

respects to the democratic central committee.
He said with perhaps more than his usual well
known tefseness and earnestncss the democ-
racy Of the District we're handicapped by the
so-calied central committee. That organiza-
ton had been almost continually throwing cold
water upon the efforts Of others, but for one he
did not intend that the jackson Democratic
Association should stand aside for any one man
from Capitol Hill or Georgetown. He doubted
the loyalty Of the organization Of the central
committee, and while he personally respected
Its members he believed they had no authority.
Mr. Sardo then chilled his hearers by stating that
In his opinion no one here would get an office
under the new administration He concluded
by saying that the central committee in attack
ing the president Of the Jackson Association,
Mr.. Jas. L. Norris. attacked the association
ITSELF He believed that II the central commit
tee we're left to itself the result would be their
determination in the same process that
adopted by the Kilkenny cats.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Sardo's remarks the
association adjourned. after vigorously ap-
plauding all he said. The preceding business
Norris called the meeting to order, but was
called away on important business, and Vice
President ]. ". Barker took the chair. At the
suggestion Of Mr.. Norris the association de-
cided to celebrate Jackson's birthday, January
8, by grand banquet, to which many men
prominent In national democratic circles will
