COURT SETS
RECORD
| $50 Cases Disposed
OF in Year, and | ,645
Indictments

Setting a new high record for
all time, the United States Dis
trict Court has disposed of total
of 1920 criminal cases, according
to the report of John C. Conliff,
jr., clerk of the United States At.
torney's office.
Criminal Division One, Mr.. Jus.
tice Daniel w. ODonoghue, pre-
siding, was responsible for the
high record, the report of Clerk
William S. Adkins reveals, dispos-
ing of 1,043 felony indictments
during the year.
Long Cases Delay
In Criminal Division Two, the
progress of the court was halted
several times during the year by
unusually long trials which, in one
case-that of seven descendants
charged with conspiracy to de-
fraud the Government-consumed
nearly seven weeks of court time.
The total business of the two
courts breaks down with 200 trials
ending in guilty verdicts and LOG
in acquittalS. There were 1,040
guilty pleas and ten acquittals on
motions for directed verdicts. The
remainder of the cases were
nolled because of lack of sufficient
evidence, death of defendants or
important witnesses or for other
reasons.
Indictments reported - to the
number of 1,645-also set a new
high record for this court, it was
said, and there were but 303 cases
pending at the end of the fiscal
year.
Nine Wait in Jail
OF the latter number, there
were but y that were actually
triable, according to the report,
due to fugitive status of the de-
PENDANTS or the tendency of dila-
tory pleadings in the cases. OF
those triable there were but nine
defendants in jail awaiting trial.
The others are at liberty under
bond.
In celebration of the accom-
pliShment of his court, Justice
O'Donoghue entertained Clerk Ad-
kinS, Probation Officer Joseph Y.
Reeves and Assistant U. S. At
torney Samuel F. Beach at his
hunting lodge at Harper's Ferry
over the weekend.

SHORTER DAY,
NURSES TOPIC
TONIGHT
Emergency Hospital Is
Ready to Grant
8-Hour Shift

Adoption of an 8-hour day for
graduate nurses at Emergency
Hospital came step nearer today
with the admission by hospital
authorities that they were await
ing an expression on the subject
expected to be forthcoming to-
night from a meeting Of the
Nurses Alumnae Association be-
fore taking up the matter with
hospital physicians.
1t is generally understood that
about 100 of the 125 graduates at
the hospital made plain at meet
ing held last Friday that they in
dorSed the 8-hour day as sub
stitute for the 12-hour tour of duty
now in force.
Ready For Demand
So clear was the mandate, &C
cording to reports, that the nurses
have talked of COUGHING their re-
quest for the shorter day in the
language of a demand.
In consideration of these de-
velopmentS, those familiar with
the hospitals affairs feel certain
that tonight's meeting-to be held
in the Assembly Hall-will result
in a confirmation of last weeks
expression.
B. B. Sandidge, superintendent
of the hospital, again conferred
yesterday with Miss Janet Fish,
supervisor of nurses. regarding
the merits of thu eight and r.
hour days, but would take no
sides on the issue. He said:
1.-THE hospital itself is neutral
on this matter. We are not
holding up settlement Of the
length of the working day.
TAKES PATIENTS SIDE
"There are two sides in
volved. The eight-hOur day has
merit for the nurses. But the
l2-hOur day has merit for the
patient. If the eight-hOur day
is put into effect, it will mean q
20 per cent increase in nursing
costs to the patient.
Bearing in mind the fact
that the best interests of the
hospital must be observed, the
question has resolved itself into
an issue between the nurses and
the doctors and the settlement
will depend upon them"
Virtually all other hospitals en-
ploy graduate nurses on the eight
hour schedule. The 12-hour
shift at Emergency has long been
point of controversy between
the hospital management an d
the nurses.
Tonight's meeting, expected to
be attended by a record number
of graduates, will be closed to the
public.
