INITIATION ATTACK
SCORED BY FISHER
G. o. P. Opposition Is Termed
"In Line With Time.Worn
Traditions"
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, April 22-Prof.
Irving Fisher of Yale noted economist,
today asserted that the attack of four
Republican Congressman on the ad-
ministration's imitation program is IN
line with time-worn traditions"
Defending the imitation program,
certainly should be used until it works
enough and then stopped 1t can be
stopped, for we shall be stronger, not
weaker"
Text of Statement.
Prof Fishers statement follows:
THE protest against the Presidents
Reed and Walcott and Representatives
Smell and Luce, sin line with the time
worn traditions of bankers-though
few bankers today are as loyal to
them as these four Congressman. But
we are now confronted with a condi-
ton, not a theory This condition Is
the opposite of Germany's when Ger
man imitation began.
Few realize the gravity of our pres
ent situation. Our very National ex-
istence Is at stake. Even more than 1t
was in the World War. Halfway, ira
ditional and timid measures will no
longer do. II the price levels IS not
speedily raised, so that business, in
dustry, and agriculture can be run
again at enough of a profit to MAKE
sure that they are run at all and re-
absorb the unemployed, and if that
level is not raised enough to enable
debtors to pay their debts and creditors
to get their pay, this country will soon
be over the precipice with bloodshed
and revolution. There is, if my analy-
sis of this depression is right, abso-
lutely no escape from our present i'm
minent danger except through refia-
ton.
Nor can we stop to cavil about meth
DDS. The situation is too desperate and
imperative. The best method is what
ever is the quickest. I, too, dislike to
load on the President so much re-
sponsibility and power, but the alterna-
tive Is a debate which will delay &C.
tom when there Is no time to lose We
are at war and must. intrust to our
chief the wartime pow
THE open-market operations which
alone the DIRECTORS grudgingly admit
might well be used, cannot be intrustRd
wholly to the Federal Reserve System.
They had their opportunity year ago,
and made insufficient use of it.
Present Money Fiat
1.-THE paper money which the OBJ
jectors fear, is no more fiat than what
we have, nor as much. Our dollar sill
yer certificates are redeemable in only
Is cents worth Of silver
1.-THE directors fear If the medicine
doesn't work, more will be tried. It
certainly should be used until 1t works
enough and then stopned II ran he
stopped, for we shall be stronger, not
weaker. We can then balance the bud
get. We cannot now. When we reach
the price level which does the greatest
good to the greatest number-not far
from the 1926 level as calculated, we
should stabilize as Sweden has.
Almost all other nations have de-
valuated their gold coins. No one
should care what the dollar weighs if
what it buys is properly safeguarded.
It now is not 100 cents, but 1901 cents
in terms of 1926 dollars. Debtors can
not pay 100 cents on the dollar, nor
interest"

HOSPITAL HEAD
CALLED UPON
FORREPORT
Surgeon Commissioner Asks
Light on Avenue Crash
Fatal to Child of 3

DR.. Luther H. Reichelderfer,
president Of the Board Of District
Commissioners and well known as
a surgeon, today ordered Emer-
gency Hospital authorities to sub.
NIT to him a report on the acci-
dent m which o three-year-old
child was killed Monday night
when the hospital ambulance
struck an automobile.
The child, oren Lentz, jr., was
killed in the collision at Four
teenth and E Streets Northwest,
while his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Oren LentZ, ST., Of Indian Spring,
Md, were seriously injured.
Ambulance Speed Charged
DR.. Reichelderfer, in calling for
the report, said:
every month or two i have
had to call up the Superin-
tendents Of the hospitals on
someone's complaint and caution
them about the speed Of their
ambulances."
In controlling the speed Of
ambulances the Commissioners
are hampered by the traffic regu-
lation which provides that speed
limits do not apply to emergency
vehicles on call.
The regulation adds, however:
"This provision shall not re-
lieve the driver Of an author
lied emergency vehicle from
the duty to driv, with due re-
gard to the safety Of all per-
sons using the street nor shall
it protect the driver Of any
such vehicle from the conse-
quences of o reckless disregard
for the safety Of others"
HOSPITAL PROBLEM
DR.. Reichelderfer further COM
mented:
"Some persons might deem it
callOus to say SO, but ! do not
hesitate to say that speeding
ambulances, by and large, de-
stroy more lives than they save.
"It is q problem with every
hospital administrator. Super
intendents have frequently to
dismiss drivers who diSObey
instructions and surrender to
the lure Of speed when the
occasion gives excuse.
SPEED DANGER ASSAILED
Dangerous speed Of an am
bulanCe is unnecessary and un-
justified. Doctors know that IL
a person is so far gone that q
few seconds or even minute
or two in getting an inferno
to him might seem to give him
a chance, he is gone anyway"
The inquest into the death Of
the child has been postponed
pending the outcome Of the in
juries to his parents.
The crash in which the child
was killed was the scene Of
another accident involving an
Emergency. ambulance some
months ago, when an ambulance
taking a patient to Gallinger
Hospital collided with a fire
truck. The. ambulance driver was
fined for failing to give right-of-
way.
