BRASHEARS OPPOSES
new INSURANCE CODE
Tells Senate District Committee
There Is No Evil to Be
Remedied by Legislation.

The proposed new insurance code
FOR Washington was opposed before
the Senate District committee today
by Edward S. Brashears Of the execu-
tive committee OF the Insurance Club
OF Washington on the ground that
there is no local demand for the legis-
lation. Mr.. Brashears argued there
are only two reasons for legislation
the raising Of revenue or the correc-
ton Of evils. This Is not revenue
any conditions needing correction
through this legislation.
Mr.. Brashears took issue with test!-
n1ony presented a few days ago that
without the proposed regulations large
buyers of fire insurance could not get
favorable rates. He centered ali of
his objections on the effect the bill
would have on fire. casualty and
surety insurance. He contended that
competition is keeping fire insurance
rates low in Washington and that
this code would stifle competition.
He also raised strenuous objections
to the provision relating to the
licensing of agents and brokers by
the superintendent Of insurance. 1t
Is expected the committee will con-
clude the hearings today.
At frequent intervals during his
testimony Mr.. Brashears clashed with
Thomas Baldwin, superintendent of
insurance, over certain features of the
bill. Senator Sackett OF Kentucky
pointed out that IA number of amend
ments had been written into the bill
recently and he suggested that Mr..
Brashears confer with Mr.. Baldwin TO
find out II any of those amendments
removed the objections he raised.

C|TyFUNDS ASKED
AT HOUSE HEARING
Urgent Needs Stressed for
Inclusion in Appropriations
Next Year.

More than 80 citizens of the Dis
trict. including Jesse c. Suter. chair
man of the Citizens Advisory Coun-
Gil, and representatives from more
than a dozen citizens associations,
testified today at hearings on appro-
priationS needed in various sections
of the National Capital before the
subcommittee which is framing the
District appropriation bill in the
House for the next fiscal year.
Mrs. Frank B. Noyes pleaded with
the committee for more generous sup
port of the child hygiene crusade.
She asked specifically that the cur
rent appropriation of $4,000 be in
creased to $4,000, so that the Dis.
trict health officer might establish two
more centers, one In Brightwood and
the other in Southeast Washington.
and be able to employ a supervising
nurse to have administrative super.
vision over all OF the hygiene stations.
Committee Sympathetic.
The committee listened sympathetic
ally to Mrs. Noyes' plea that the
health of children should be properly
safpguarded and that health ideas
should be inculcated.
Representative citizens from the
Park View section protested vigorous
" against the proposal OF the Board
Of Education tofenlarge the Park View
School by putting on an extra story.
They declared that they would prefer
70 wait five years for additional school
accommodations. They argued that
he appropriation made last year and
unexpended should be used to pur-
chase additional land adjoining the
present school on which an extension
10 the present school building might
later be erected.
Ask for High School.
Representatives of the Manor Park
Citizens Association asked for ap-
preparations for a storm sewer be-
tween Brightwood and Takoma, and
for work to be begun on new
junior high school in Brightwooi or
vicinity. Those who spoke were John
y. Smoot, Herbert Bryant and Er-
nest II. Pullman, officers of the asso-
citation. They pointed out that these
improvements also were indorsed by
the Brightwood and TakomA associa-
lions.
Mr.. Smoot. in urging the sewer
construction, said II would prevent
further flooding of cellars OF Manor
Park residents, due to improper sur.
face drainage OF the region by Pin9y
Branch Creek. which in many places
is nothing more than a ditch. Com
plant was made that some of the
water becomes staSnant and consti-
tutes a health menace.
