property.
The council will study DR.. Haven
ner's list of proposed emergency prof.
ects at its next meeting, and after
making such additions or other amend
ments as 1t sees fit, will forward the
report to the District Commissioners.
Before Mr.. Stengle's opposition de-
veloped, the council had approved the
following projects: Completion OF
ing. pools and beaches, blilding Of a
reptile house at the Zoo and expansion
OF the Public Library system.
At this point Mr.. Stengle said that
II the council pursued its course, the
whole program would have been ap-
proved without the councils having
had before it figures In supg,ort OF the
amounts asked for the various projects.
DR.. Hayenner's report will make no
mention Of figures, the council deciding
that its statistical recommendations
must wait until the department heads
estimates are presented to them year
by year In preparation Of the budget
The council again took up the ques-
ton of appropriating 100000 year
for purchase of school sites and build
ings, instead Of the 81, 400, 600, as recon-
mended in the five-year plan, but this
question seems fated to go undecided.
Question Remains Undecided.
After DR.. E. E. Richardson, chair
man of the councils education COM
mittee, had made an eloquent plea for
inclusion Of the larger amount, citing
the existence Of ITS portables in the
District and overcrowded conditions III
many buildings, several councilmen
asked him If he thought the school
officials could spend the money If they
had it. A general discussion of the
efficiency of the municipal architects
office ensued, and the discussion trailed
off nconclusively into question of the
ACCESSIBILITY Of using the same room in
schools for gymnasium and assembly
hall.
The council was ready to take up the
question Of bridges again, but Thomas
E. Lodge of American University Park
had requested that this matter be post
poned until he arrived. He wanted to
make plea for inclusion of a new
Chain Bridge in the five-year plan.
Mr.. Lodge did not arrive as expected
and the question was passed on until
the next meeting.

HOSPITAL ACCOUNTING
SYSTEM UNDER REVIEW
Bureau of Efficiency Recommends
Changes Considered Desirable
in Gallinger Methods.

The District Commissioners today re-
ceived two recommendations from the
Bureau of Efficiency dealing with rec
ord keeping and accounting at Gal
linger Hospital. The reports are in
eidental to general survey of the
hospital being made by the bureau.
One report recommends that records
for property, now being maintained by
the same employe who receives and is
sues the property, be transferred to the
Office of the chief clerk. The report
states that keys to the storerooms are
available to other employees than the
Storekeeper and his assistant, as dupli-
cate keys are kept in the Office of the
chief clerk
Whenever these conditions exist"
the report continues, 1.-The issue of
stores without adequate record of their
conversion to personal use can easily be
made, and individual responsibility for
shortages cannot be fixed" The report
recommends that keys to the store
room be held only by the storekeeper
and his assistant, and that all duplicate
keys be kept in the custody of the Su-
perintendent.
The second report recommends new
set-up for the hospitals system of &C
counts and records. 1t differs from the
one now in use principally in the ar
rangement of appropriation accounts.
the use of loose leaf ledgers and the
establishment of self-balancing ledger
The proposed system, the bureau says,
will necessitate approval by the con-
troller general before being put into
effect, but no difficulty in this direc-
ton is foreseen. The bureau also states
that the system will have the indorse-
ment of the superintendent of the hos
pital.

COUNCIL REVIEWS
DONOVAN'S SYSTEM
Advisory Board Reports on
D. C. Auditors 5-Year
Financial Program.

The Citizens Advisory Councils
study of District Auditor Daniel j.
Donovan's five-year financial program
for the District ended last night after
a spirited objection by Charles I.
Stengle of Petworth to the system
USED in studying the plan hitherto of
adopting or rejecting one by one the
major improvements called for in the
plan. The council directed its chair
man, DR.. George G. Havenner, to draw
up report stating that the council
favored the principle of casting up the
municipalities probable receipts and ex-
penditures five years III advance to en-
able a picture to be drawn of what
may and may not be done with avail
able taxes, and then to list emergency
projects which the council believes
should be taken care of in the five
years. Dr. Havenner's recommended
ton is to include request for an in
crease of the Federal Governments
annual 100000 appropriation to the
District if any of the projects threaten

period Of friendly relations between
England and America.
In a brief address the British AM
bassador reported rapid progress" OF
King George in his recovery Of health.
His words were followed by a round of
congratulatory applause, repeated later
when he touched on the successful in
auguration April /, of air mail service
between England and India, distance
of 5000 miles.
The Ambassador was presented to
the 300 guests by Gen. Henry T. Alien.
president of the local chapter and
POSTMASTER at the dinner, who felici-
tated him on his attainment in re-
vealing the friendship between our
countries"
DIR. Richmond Criticizes Shaw.
DR.. Charles A. Richmond, president
emeritus Of Union College. Sche-
nectady, N. Y, followed Ambassador
Howard on the program. He pointed
out that British American good will is
not merely a question of common
language, common laws anc customs, y
but could be attributed largely to the
fact that America inherited from
England traditions of self-government
without which the popular Government
of the United States could never have
succeeded"
The speaker questioned the motives
of men who abuse positions of pronli-
nence to voice unfriendly sentiments.
Speaking of loose takers" DR.. Rich
mond continued: Bernard Shaw says
that in the last 100 years there were
scarcely 10 minutes during which Eng
land and America were not ready to
spring at each others throats," and
adds that it is time for us openly to
acknowledge this hate. Perhaps it IS
fortunate that those of us who read
his comments en- public affairs are not
particularly impressed by them while
others who might be prejudiced pro-
badly never heard of Shaw-something

which would make him unhappy should
he suspect 1t.
Men in public life who publicly chal-
lenge the good faith of other nations
for the purpose of obtaining local pop
ularity are a threat to international
peace, the speaker said "This kind OF
politician is sometimes applauded by
those whom the Apostle Paul once de-
scribed as loud fellows of the baser
sort They call him a real patricia
100 per center own strong aversion
to the man who describes himself as
100 per cent American. His patriot
ism is usually the kind which reused
Dr. johnson to exclaim, Sir, patriotism
is the last resort of scoundrelS.'
In this connection DR.. Richmond
mentioned the efforts of Mayor Thomp-
son Ito make Chicago safe from King
George"
Sees Britain and u. s. in Accord.
The final speaker was DR.. Hugh
Birckhead of Baltimore, secretary of
the Maryland branch, English Speaking
Union. Speaking from his experience
while in England as an American rep
resentatiye during the World War; DR..
Birckhead declared that the relations
between England and America are those
of brothers, "God-made, not man
made" He said such ties were proof
against adversely and mutual suspicion,
and would exist for all time.

AVIATION FATALITIES
IN NAVY RECORD SHOWN
Secretary Adams Reports $50 in
Five Years, With Tail Spin
as Chief Cause.
By the Associated Press.

A report sent to the Senate by Secre-
tary Adams shows that fatalities i'll the
aviation service of the Navy and Ma
rine Corps in the last five years have
totaled $50 and that their outstanding
cause has been the tail spin, which ac-
counted for more than IS per cent of
the accidents.
while progress has been made" the
report says, 1.-The problem has not been
solved. The most promising develop
ment is the Handley-Page slotted wing,
which has undergone modification and
development by the Navy.
"Other measures taken to reduce the
hazards include adoption of the para
chute. development of the Nays Aero
logical Service, supplying of rescue
boats adapted to the work, giving of
regular training to Reserve aviators
and steady increase in pilot flying time.
ANY legislation which results in an
increase in the efficiency of aviation"
the report adds, may be expected to
eventually effect corresponding re-
duction in the number of accidents.
However aside from these general eff
fectS, it is not believed safety of flying
is matter for specific legislation"
