BELLEVUE WILL APPEAL
Trustees Declare Cour Ruling
Aids Ambulance Chasers.

James K. Paulding, secretary Of the
board Of trustees of Bellevue and Allied
Hospitals gave out a statement last night
Erlanger in the Supreme Court that an
employe Of a hospital might give informa-
ton to a lawyer in regard to the condition
Of a patient. and that the employe might
accept A gratuity for giving such fnforma-
ton without in any way violating the law.
The trustees of Bellevue intend TO appeal
from that decision. and the statement given
out last night says in part:
THE effect of this decision, unless re-
versed, will be to expose all patients in the
free public hospitals who are the victims
of accidents TO the prosecutions of the
ambulance chaser It was to safeguard
them from this class of attention that the
trustees adopted the rule forbidding the
giving Of information by hospital employees
The trustees believe that a patient in a
public hospital has the same right as one
IN a private hospital. whose records are
held inviolate. They recognize his right TO
consult a lawyer to bring action in his
name for damages in an accident case. and
they desire to do everything within their
power to facilitate access to q. patient by a
reputable lawyer, and to prevent the snap
ping up Of all such cases by lawyers of the
ambulance chaser type.
IF I represent in this matter the opinion
Of the trustees, an appeal will be taken
from the decision of Mr.. Justice ErIanger.''
