ASKS CAB PERMIT
CHECK BY POLICE
License Official Suggests
Step to Halt Use of
Unlicensed Taxis.

A close check-up by police Of all
taxicabs operating after tomorrow
night. when taxi licenses for the year
expire. was suggested today by Wade
Coombs. superintendent of licenses,
rs = means of keeping unlicensed
cabs OF the streets.
Mr.. Coombs voiced belief that some
taxicab drivers may attempt to get
by on their expired licenses between
Saturday and August 20, when the
taxicab liability law goes into Effect,
since they do not plan to remain in
the business after that date. He said
he would ask police 10 make q special
check for this reason.
Up to noon today about 1900 taxi
cab drivers had obtained licenses for
the new fiscal year, about 1900 less
than the total licensed by the close Cf
business on July Is Of last year. How
ever. hundreds of drivers were trying
to beat" the deadline Of tomorrow
midnight and Mr.. Coombs said he
could issue licenses at the rate Of
about 1000 . day.
While the total Of drivers licensed
last July Is was about 5000, the
maximum who obtained permits dur
ing the past year was approximately
1900.
Omcials Of the Public Utilities
Commission have anticipated there
would be q decline in the number Of
taxicab drivers as q result OF the taxi
cab liabilities plan. 1t is thought that
many Of those who drop out are part
time drivers.

ton. he said. Is that there are no
facilities In Gallinger's psychopathic
wards for segregating disturbed and
quiet patients.
While the machinery Of the new
system now is working, and the COM
mission has held four hearings and
scheduled another for tomorrow, the
To-day delay period is permanent, ac-
cording to a ruling of T. Gillespie
Walsh. lawyer member OF the ,om-
mission. This provision OF the new
law apparently was actuated by q
desire to safeguard the rights Of
patients to appeal for . jury trial
before being sent to st. Elizabeth's.
But 1t will result. DR.. Gilbert pointed
out, in continuous delay.
Temporary Commitments.
Another practice Of the past for
which there is no provision in the
new law is the temporary commit
ment Of violent patients Those in
q highly agitated condition formerly
were sent at once to st. Elizabeth's,
under temporary commitment, pend
ing court hearing. Now they must
be held at Gallinger, which lacks the
facilities Of St. Eizabeth's for taking
care of these cases.
The Commission on Mental Hygiene,
Of which Drs. H. D. Shapiro and
Albert E. Marland are the medical
members for the FIRST quarter Of the
fiscal year, has opened omces In the
old Police Court Building, at SIS D
street NV.

Delay in starting the new simpli-
fied procedure Of committing insane
persons in the District to st. Eliza
beth's Hospital has crowded the psy-
chopathic wards Of Gallinger NUM-
cipal Hospital far beyond their COM
Portable capacity, DR.. Joseph L. Gilbert,
chief psychiatrist there. said today.
At the same time DR.. Gilbert, while
favoring the new plan Of commitment
by . mental commission instead of q
jury In open court, was dubious at the
prospect Of eliminating delays and
relieving congestion in the observa-
ton wards. He pointed to an official
. Interpretation OF the new law under
which 10 week days must elapse before
q committed person may be taken to
st. Elizabeth's.
The delay in launching the new
system was due to lack of funds for
the Commission on Mental Hygiene
created by the last Congress. These
funds did not become available until
the second deficiency bill was signed
last week. Meanwhile, mental cases
had been piling up in the local courts,
and numerous patients at Gallinger
were awaiting examination by the
commission.
Number Of Patients Large.
DR.. Gilbert now has under his care
ITO patients in the three buildings
set aside for mental observation.
This is considerably larger than the
average number. he pointed out. The

Montgomery Doctors Meet
Tuesday to Consider
Chevy Chase Site.
DECISION TO DEPEND
ON ANY COMPETITION
Association Enlarges Medical
staff at Clinic to Care for
Many Patients.

Proposal of Group Health Associa-
ton. Inc, to build a hospital and
clinic in Chevy Chase, Md, will be
considered Tuesday night at a meet
ing Of the Montgomery County Medical
Society. at the Manor Country Club.
DR.. Jacob w. Bird, president Of the
society, said it probably would decide
then whether or not to oppose the G
H. A. request to the Montgomery
County commissioners for authority to
build the hospital, at a hearing sched-
uled by the commissioners for July rs.
DR.. Bird emphasized that the organ
ization had not taken any action yet
toward the hospital proposal, explain
ing that the society's attitude would be
determined largely by further study
Of the G. H. A. application and what
1t indicates as to the scope and future
operation Of the hospital.
Medical STAFF ENLARGED.
Meantime. G. H. A. has enlarged its
medical staff at its clinic in the 1900
block of I street NV, it was an
nounced, to take care Of its large
clientele of Government workers from
several agencies.
As an associate member of the Dis
trict Of Columbia Medical Society, DR..
Bird said he was familiar with Group
Health Association, which has been
opposed by the District Medical So
ciety. But personally, DR.. Bird en-
phaszied. he had come to no conclusion
in regard to the proposed G. H. A.
hospital in Montgomery County. He
emphasized he had an open mind on
the subject.
At the meeting Of the Montgomery
society. which begins at $50 pm.
Tuesday night, DR.. Bird said, there
will be several members of the Dis
trict Medical Society to furnish gen.
eral information on G. H. A. activi-
ties.
Competition Factor.
If the proposed g. H. A. institution
IN Montgomery County Is only for the
treatment Of Government employees,
DR.. Bird pointed out. 1t would help
take care Of those living in Mont
gomery County. He estimated Mont
gomery County had at least 5000
Government workers.
II, however, the G.. H. A. hospital
eventually would compete directly
with the Washington Sanitarium 1T
Takoma Park or the Montgomery
County General Hospital, Of which
he Is superintendent, DR.. Bird said
this factor would be one for serious
consideration Of the county medical
society.
-Four more physicians will be added
to the medical stan Of Group Health
Association, Inc, increasing the num-
ber to IL, William c. Kirkpatrick, Or
ganization president, announced today.
Serving the $500 association mem
bers also were nine nurses and techni-
clans. Salaries Of the new physicians
will be paid out Of the general fund
Of the corporation, financed entirely by
the monthly dues, 1t was said.
Expansion of the associations med
ical staff is only part of . general
program whereby we hope to increase
the value Of Group Health Association, u
Mr.. Kirkpatrick explained. The in
crease was neoessitated by the rapid
growth in membership. Since the OPEN
ing Of the first clinic last fall, the
membership has increased from $50
to 1900.
