st. Elizabeth's Hospital, was suspend
ed for week without pay yesterday
by the hospital disciplinary boarG
for failing to cooperate with Off
cials at the institution and for
"other reasons" according to DR.. vii
liam A. White, superintendent Of tn

In a statement for the press, how
ever. McCandlish states that he Is
being punished for going over the
heads of Immediate superiors" IN re
porting alleged abuses OF patients to
the Department of the Interior, which
has supervision of the hospital. This
DIR. White denied last night.
In his complaint to the department
McCandlish charged that inmates Of
the institution were deprived of vari-
GUS eonveniences In the way of saui-
tation, water, etc, and that woman
teachers were forced to conduct
classes in these wards without guard
or attendants being on duty. Nc
Candlish claims he made repeated ef
forts to obtain action from the hos
pital doctor In charge of the Veterans
Bureau patients there and ultimatel%
decided TO appeal to the Interior De
partment.
Supt White last night stated that
McCandlish had no just cause tof
complaining to the department. He
been slightly inconvenienced recent
ly during the opening of a new ward
but that no real hardship was en-
tailed. McCandlish'S complaint. he
emphasized. had nothing to do with

Thousands Increase Likely
At Public Euening Schools
Elementary and High School Classes Are
to Be Brought Together as Ne,o
Term Starts Tomorrow.

Washington's evening public schools
ranked among the best In the United
itates despite the handicaps under
which they are operated. will open to-
morrow for the scholastic year 1923
1924. For the first time since their
establishment the night schools will
be conducted this year on progressive
cosmopolitan plans, with the ele-
mentary and high school classes COM
btned In the same school.
Advance estimates indicate that the
enrolment will be heavy and prob
ably will exceed that of last year by
several thousands. The new plan of
centralizing the grade and high school
classes In one building, together with
the diploma and certification to COL
lege offered to graduates. 1t is be-
ifeved, Will make the evening schools
more popular this year than ever be-
fore.
Walter B. Patterson. director OF the
hight and other special schools, an
nounced last night that the organi-
sation OF the evening school system
had been completed. All of the
teachers necessary to conduct the
classes have been nominated and as
SIBHeu 10 tHe various SchOOlS. Their
appointment, however, will not be
made until Wednesday, when the
board Of education meets.
Funds Limited.
Again this year the night schools
are confronted with a limited appro-
rriation, of $4,000. although the off,
rfals pleaded with Congress at the
last session for an additional $1,000
TO meet the ever-increa sing demands
being made upon these schools, prin-
:ipally by, adults who were denied
the advantage Of an education dur
ing their youth. BY strict economy
and careful apportionment of the
money the officials hope to make it
last through the nine-month school
year.
Industrial work will be feature
Of the curricula In several of the
schools. There will be the usual ele-
mentary and academic work in all
OF the schools.
Business High School will give
courses that are strictly synonymous
with it's name. Typewriting, short

tions Of the city, the officials believe
have It's night school. except George

duct q night school in Georgetown,

311 PUPILS ENROLL
AT MINER NORMAL

The Miner Normal School opened
with an enrolment Of al on Sep
tember 2s, the highest registration
in the history of the school. OF this
number lol were returning seniors
and 1870 juniors.
Several additions have been made
to the faculty. Mrs L. e. Tibbs, for
merly kindergarten principal in the
graded schools, has been placed in
charge of the music department. The
loss to the faculty sustained by the
transfer of G. S. Wormley to the
prtncipaiship of the Randall Junior
High School has been met by the
promotion OF j. l. Minor to the posi-
tion Of supervisor of practice. To
alleviate congestion in the English
department, new position has been
created, to which Miss Il. p Shipper
the practice teacher of the fourth
grade, has been advanced. The places
left vacant in the practice schools
have been filled by Miss NJ. Z. Thomas
and Miss T. Corrothers. both of
whom are graduates of Howard Uni
versity and have been successful
teachers in the graded schools.

term. Before the opening day COM
mittee of seniors under the direction
of Mrs. woodward met and forrnu-
lated plans to extend a cordial well
come to the juniors A reception
committee and a committee on in
formation Were appointed, some of
the members OF which posted a sim
pie placard of greeting to- the in
coming juniors Others, easily ac-
cessible on account of their badges,
were on hand on the opening day TO
give aid and a word of greeting TO
the new students.
This year 4 departure from the
regular program is contemplated in
the form of a special program for
the extended Friday morning assem-
bly,. Music. addresses by prominent
speakers, motion pictures and stu
dent activities will be the leading
features of these exercises.
A distinct advance in the educa-
tional progress of the public schools
will be initiated in the establishm ent
of a psychological clinic, which will
operate twice q week under the di-
rection of Miss Lane. teacher OF psy-
chology in this institution. Miss
Lane, who secured her masters de-
gree in education at Columbia Uni
versity in 1922, is we'll prepared to
prosecute effectively this undertak-
ing The aim of this clinic is to
meet the needs of problematic chill
dren of the practical department OF
this institution and of the schools at
