387 CHILDREN AIDED.
BY HOSPITAL CORPS
Miss Gibson Reports Records
Broken for Number of
Serious Cases.

A total of 387 children were treated
at Childrens Hospital last month,
breaking all records for the number OF
more serious cases treated at the hos
pital in the same length of time, Miss
Matte Gibson, superintendent, reported
at meeting of the board of lady Wis
itors in the hospital yesterday. There
was a daily average of 116 children
critically i'll during that period.
This number, which, according to
Miss Gibson, taxes the hospital beyond
its normal capacity, does not include
the many minor cases Of sickness re-

ZlHLMAN PLANS BILL
RAISING D. C. GAS TAX
Chairman Of House Committee to
Introduce 3-cents-Per-G Gallon
Measure at Extra Session.

&AAN6GAAN ~ ASAtAA 1GSSAOAAe
Chairman zihlman Of the House Dis
trict committee announced yesterday
that he expects to introduce in the
House during the extra session bill to
increase the District gasoline tax from
D to cents per gallon.
This measure is urged by Maryland
constituents Of Mr.. Zihlman, who seek
to discourage Maryland people coming
into the District to buy gasoline when
the Maryland tax Is 4 cents per gallon.
A similar proposal to increase the gaso..
line tax was made in the last session OF
Congress by Senator Tydings OF Mary
land as an amendment to the Cram
ton bill, which failed to become a law.
The proposed gasoline tax increase Tor
the District will be vigorously opposed.
AS the House leadership intends to not
organize any committees except those
needed for handling the tariff and farm
relief legislation, there will be no COM
mittee in the extra session to which this
bill can be referred and no action can
be taken upon it.
