ALL UNDERTAKES
Health Officer Fowler Speaks
For Bill to Control EN-
baIming Business.

Strict regulation OF undertakers In
the District of Columbia was urged
today by DR.. w. C. Fowler. District
Health Officer, who appeared before
the House District Committee In the
interest of q bill introduced by Con-
gressman Zihlman OF Maryland.
DR.. Fowler explained to the com
mittee that the health department
has no control over the practice OF
embalming and urged that power be
extended to him to supervise the
business.
Practically every State in the coun-
try, DR.. Fowler said, has enacted leg
islation to regulate in some way or
other the practice Of embalming.
Congressman Zihlman's bill would
create commission comprising
licensed undcrtakers who would reg.
ulate the business in the District and
would enable the Health Department
to keep a watchful eye over the busi-
mss in general.
Licensing of all undertakers Is one
of the principal provisions in the bill
1t is this provision. requiring licenses
to be renewed every three years
which has caused some protest from
the undertakers now doing business
in Washington.
DR.. Fowler was the only witness
heard today, but the committee in
tends to give undertakers chance to
be heard before the bill Is reported.

Platform to Be Submitted to Sew

Distinctive Features.

Mrs. Maud Wood Park. chairman OF
the National League of Women
Voters. which has opened headquar-
ters in the Munsey building, came to
Washington today with the first plat
form which the league is to present
to all political parties at their sew
eral conventions.
She is also actively following up
legislation work In which the league
is most interested
1T Is essentially a woman's plat
FORM" said Mrs. Park. THAT is to
say, II includes subjects on which
women, because Of their experience as
mothers, home-makers and wage
earners, have a distinctive point OF
view.
"It should be clearly understood
that the six planks do not constitute
the full legislative program OF the
league. The program adopted in Chi
cago contains many other measures,
most of them matters of state legis-
lation rather than of Federal enact
ment."
The six planks OF tho league, which
Is non-partisan, include child welfare,
education, the home and high prices,
women. in gainful occupations, public
health and morals and independent
citizenship for married women.
