form the hospital service 10 which
a city OF Richmond's Importance is en-
titled.
The plan gains strong support from
tho growing feeling that the city can
not much longer continue to conduct
Jointly it's hospital and alnishouse The
union Of these two municipal functions

after President Wilson has conferred

to reach some sort of an agreement
will be resumed.
While the committee marked time

tive Wingo. who has opposed several
parts OF the administration bill, and
with Representative Glass, chairman
OF tho committee. following which II
was planned that the bill be taken out
OF the hands OF the Democratic mem
bers Of the committee and be sent to
n house caucus, IL vote demon
strated they were unable to agree.
accordingly. when the conference
met after the house adjourned, Rep
resentative wingo offered a motion
that the bill be submitted to a Dem
ocratic caucus to be called a week
from Monday. and that the commit
tee members I'm the meantime thresh
out as many OF their differences as
possible. Representative Ragsdale Of
fered n motion to send the bill to
the caucus Immediately without any
recommendation and with all amend
rnents pending. Other motions fol-
lowed In quick succession and confu-
sion ensued.
The discussion became rather acri-
monlous. Representative Ragsdale
calling Chairman Glass to account for

man believed the committee was un-
able to agree. Chairman Glass re-
pudiated the statement.
Representative Korbly interrupted

to make a statement. Representative

bers OF the committee were so dis

tion to be discoug teous.
Representative Wilson OF Fiorids
wanted to know IL the charge of dis
courtesy applied to him. and Rep,
resentative Bulkeley retorted that his
statement could be interpreted by
each member of the committee to
suit himself. In the confusion the
various motions to send the bill to
conference were laid upon the table,
and the committee adjourned until
Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock with
the bill still suspended in midair.
