POLICE TRIAL UNIT
. Of C|T|zENSA
Gardiner Says Independent
Board Would Help Off,
GERS Morale.

Establishment of civilian police
trial board, entirely Independent Of the
Police Department, was urged today
by w Gwynn Gardiner, former District
Commissioner, at a hearing before \
special subcommittee of the House
District Committee on bills authoriz-
ing the Commissioners to restore four
dismissed policemen to duty. Gardiner
is representing two Of the former off,
GERS.
Gardiner said he first proposed the
plan OF an independent trial board
while he was Commissioner and ex-
pressed the belief it would prevent de-
struction OF morale in the Police De-
partment. which is possible under the
present set-up if the Commissioners
overrule the findings of trial board
made up entirely of police officials.
Representative Bates. Republican,
Of Massachusetts, questioned the wis
dom of Congress enacting legislation
directing the Commissioners to restore
dismissed policemen to duty. While
the pending bills merely authorize the
Commissioners to reappoint the four
former officers, Gardiner told the sub
committee he believed the legislation
should direct the reappointment to as
sure the men Of reinstatement.
1T would be dangerous legislation
to make it mandatory on the Commits
sioners to reinstate dismissed police
men," said Bates. Such legislation
might subject the whole department
to political pressure"
Bates argued there should be a judi
cial review of the Police Trial Board
cases by the Police Court or some other
legal agency, rather than enactment
OF legislation which would compel the
Commissioners to reinstate the four
men.
The four former officers who are
seeking restoration to duty through
special legislation are David r.
Thompson, Ralph s. Warner, James
F. Day and Amos B. Cole

INSURANCE SEEN
RAISING GTAX|RATE
Tydjngs Backed by Drivers
in VieW-Posting of
Cash Sum Instead.

Compulsory liability insurance for
taxicabs in the District must be ac-
companied by increased passenger
rates. Senate subcommittee was told
today.
This view was advanced by Chair
man TydinEs of the subcommittee
which is holding public hearings on
the House bill to require taxicab in
surance and was Endorsed by cab
drivers and representatives of the
public.
The House bill contains a provision
permitting the posting Of $4,000 in
cash with the public Utilities Com
mission in lieu of insurance. This pro-
vision was favored by Attorney Ring
gold Hart, appearing for the Diamond
Cab Association, who told the COM
mlttee the highest total of damage
claims paid by his association in any
year since 1884 was approximately
$4,000.
Our association pays all legitimate
claims against it," Hart said I'VE
have no unsatisfied judgments. If
we were permitted to post a security
fund Of SIS 900, to be constantly main
tanned at that level. the public would
have adequate protection in 50 far as
our cabs are concerned. 1t would
also be much cheaper for us. which
means lower fare rates since the in
surance specified in the bill would
cost our association about $3eO,0O0
every three months
Operates 1900 Cabs.
Hart explained his association op-
crates about 1900 cabs and that the
insurance premium would be about
$2s per month per cab.
The provision authorizing the cash
indemnity fund was strenuously op-
posed, however. by representatives of
independent operators. They contend
ed the independent drivers would of
necessity have to take out the insur-
ance, at a cost to each driver OF S25
month, whereas the driver of a
Diamond cab would be allowed to
operate indefinitely by putting up a
total Of less than $75 as a member
OF the association. Senator Tydings
said he appreciated that this would
work hardship on independent driv-
ers, but pointed out they could over
come 1t by forming their own associa-
ton.
Howard M. Starkey, manager of the
Washington of1ice of the Association of
Casualty and Surety Executives, told
the committee he was in favor Of the
bill, but added "our experience with
taxicab insurance has been 50 bad
that it is almost impossible to get
any OF the old line stock companies
TO write insurance on taxicabs"
Wender Testifies.
Harry S. Wender, chairman of the
Safety Committee of the Federation
Of Citizens Associations, told Senator
1ydings the federation recognized the
necessity of increasing taxicab fares
to meet the cost OF the insurance, but
said he believed the determination Of
the amount Of increase should be left
to the Public Utilities Commission
and not be fixed by Congress.
The committee also has under con-
sideration q bill to limit the number
of taxicabs operating in the Dis
trict. He said he was personally op-
posed to the measure, however, and
since 1t has been defeated in the
House it was not considered likely the
Senate will act favorably on 1t.
