SYSTEM OF PROMOTIONS.
Plan Affecting Medical staff of Wash
ington Asylum Hospital.

BY inauGurating a system of promotions
for the staff of resident physicians at the
Washington Asylum Hospital the Commits
soners of the District are of the opinion
that they can materially improve the serv-
ice
The plan outlined by the members of the
board of charities, submitted to the Com
missioners, for appointments and promo
lions is as follows:
That internes be appointed upon COM
petitive examination; that when an inferno
has served one year and has passed the
District examining and licensing board, he
shall be promoted to the position of resi-
dent physician, in which position he shall
serve six months, then be transferred to
he shall serve six months as resident physi-
clan: then be transferred to the Tubercu-
losis Hospital, where he shall serve six
months as resident physician; at the expi-
ration of his term of service at the Tuber-
culosis Hospital, if his record, moral and
professional, Is good he shall be appointed
physician to the poor"
They also suggested that the system
should be arranged SO not to interfere
with the proper quoti. of coored and
homeopathic physicians to the poor. The
board is prepared to recommend the same
system for the promotion of internes at
Freedmen's Hospital. or any other hospital
in the District having a colored medical
staff Well as for the internes of the
Homeopathic Hospital, provided these in
situations require the same length of
service.
