CONSIDERS RULES
FOR D. c. SURET|ES
Judge Mcmahon Has Request
for Conference With Pro-
feSSi0naI BondSmen.

Police judges today told rep
resentatives of the professional
bondsmen at Police Court that they
would give consideration to their re-
quest to talk matters over appertain-
ing to the new regulations which
limit the liability of bondsmen to
twice the value of their assessed prop
erty holdings, when they received a
written request outlining the purpose
of the conference.
The new rules have resulted in a
virtual stoppage of business for pro-
fessional bondsmen in the District
who have gone over their limit of
double the value of their assessed
property holdings. At the time the
rule was made the stipulation was
that they might underwrite bonds
with limit of three times the market
value of the property. All of the
bondSmen were within whispering
distance of that quota then.
No Reports of Congestion.
Contrary to the prediction of bonds
men, however. there have thus far
been no reports of serious congestion
of police stations on account of the
inability to obtain bonds on the part
Of prisoners, although there have
been reported numbers of requests for
bonds which could not be filled on ac-
count of the inability of professional
bondsmen to underwrite them.
