SL1ll III TIC DIR.
Although the Senate judiciary
subcommittee, headed by Senator
Rice w. Means of Colorado, has
closely guarded the nature Of the
charges which have caused un
precedented delay in action on
Major Gordon's name, it has leaked
out that much Of the opposition has
grown out Of cases connected with
ST. Elizabeth's Hospital in which
Major Gordon has figured.
Cite Delay in Case
The most important Of these cases
concerns william Green, colored
patient at st. Elizabeth's, who died
after beating at the hospital in
July, 1924.
A coroner's jury decided that
Green's death was. homicidal.
According to charges placed be-
fore the Senate Committee, 1t was
six months later that Major Gordon
presented the case to the Grand
Jury and then the most important
witnesses were not called. Because
of this, say the District Attorneys
accusers, the Grand Jury ignored
the case. , -.
Case Is ReOpened
In September, 1925, IA months
after the death Of Green, a special
petition presented through John A.
Savage, an ex-patient who has,
since his release, sought to bring
about the freedom of other patients
at st. Elizabeth's, and who is one
of Major Gordon's principal ac-
cusers, brought a reopening Of the
case by the Grand. Jury. William
M. Mcintyre and Irving r.
Sweeney, attendants at the hospi-
tai, were indicted in October, 1925.
Neither has yet been tried, although
it now is nearly two years since
Green's death.

WOMEN BUREAU
BILL HELD Up

Charges that efforts are being
made to intimidate members of the
House District Committee who OPP
pose the bill to legalize the women's
bureau of the Police Department
were features Of a heated contrO-
versy today when an unsuccessful
attempt was made to report the
bill.
Action on the measure was
blocked for the fourth consecutive
time by lack Of quorum.
Representative William G. Ham
mer of North Carolina angrily de-
nounced representatives of wonIen's
organizations.
Charges Coercion
81 am sick and tired of these
continued attempts to coerce me
into voting for this BILL Hammer
said. II am convinced the bill IS
wrong in principle and ! am going
to fight against it.
These women have been attempt.
ing to brighten me into voting for
the bill by threatening me politically
in my home district"
Mrs. Edwin C. Gregory, Of Sails
man of the legislative committee
of the Daughters Of the American
Revolution, was made the target OF
an attack by Mrs. Giles Scott Raj
ter, president of the local parent
teachers association.
Daughters Favor Bill
Mrs. Gregory told the committee
that the women of her organization
were in favor Of the bill. She
presented a resolution adopted by
the daughters requesting passage
Of the measure.
by what right do these people
come here from other States and
attempt to cram legislation upon
the people of the District over
their obJeQtions?" Mrs. Rafter said
sharply. "The women of the Dis
trict are fighting for the rights
of their children in opposing this
bill.
"The bill delegates improper
authority to the women's bureau.
We believe the right of parole and
the right Of deciding whether such
cases should be heard in court
should be left to the courts and not
to any police agency"
Mrs. Gregory was defended by
representative Blanton of Texas.
After efforts to secure a quorum
proved fruitless, the committee re-
cessed until Wednesday morning,
when a further attempt will be
made to secure action.
