DENTAL LICENSE
CHANGES URGED
City Heads Advise Budget
Bureau Present Law
Is Inadequate.

Strengthening of the act providing
for the examination and licensing Of
dentists and dental hygienists was
urged yesterday by the Commission
ers in report to the Budget Bureau
suggesting some changes in bills now
before the House and Senate.
The Commissioners advised the
Budget Bureau they had found the
existing law inadequate. The move
has been indorsed by the District
Dental Society and the Robert T.
Freeman Dental Society, they re-
ported.
This report and several others were
sent to the Budget Bureau to deter
mine which of the proposed reports
to Congress were in accord with the
legislative policies of the President.
The Commissioners withheld COM
ment on the bill of Representative
Celler, Democrat. of New York, which
would provide for election of mayor
and a city council of rs members by
the residents of the District to replace
the present Board of Commissioners,
who are named by the President. The
city heads said they would withhold
comment until after report has been
submitted to Congress by E. O. Grit
hnhagen & Associates, the Chicago
frm recently employed to make a
survey of plans for reorganization of
the District government.
Opposition "at this time" was voiced
by the Commissioners to a bill to give
part pay to educational employees of
the public school system when on
leave of absence for the purpose Of
educational improvement. They ex-
planned their opposition was based on
the fact that new tax bill has been
devised to meet the Districts present
fiscal needs, and that the plan would
mean an increase in school appro-
priations.
Approval was sought for a bill
which would enable hospitals to force
payment of bills rendered in accident
cases. The city heads held it was
"manifestly unfair" to require hos
pitals to receive injured persons with
out giving them some means of en-
forcing payment for the services.
The Commissioners reported there
had been numerous cases N which
hospitals had been unable to enforce
payment of their bills even though
the victims of accidents had been
able to collect insurance payments
for their injuries. They said Mary
land, Virginia, New York and IA
other States now have such legisla-
ton.
