Monthly Reports Provided.
The new rule provides that the
clerk shall transmit to the Attorney
General Of the United States q
monthly report in detail.
One rule recommended for adop-
ton by the Washingtonu Housing
Association was not accepted. The
association urged that the time of
the landlord and tenant session be
changed from morning to afternoon.
Directing the Washington Housing

the hight for progressive changes in
procedure in the landlord and
tenant branch Of the court.
Under the present setup at the
court the judge serving in Landlord
and Tenant branch, which begins at
$50 am, also sits in the Small
Claims branch, which Is scheduled
for 10:30 am. If the new rule en-
pOwering the court to inquire in de-
tail in each tenant case were fol-

be necessary for handling those
cases, the association pointed out.
But an afternoon session for the

Vote League Backs Change.
The League Of Women Voters,
which reported to the association
on the court, made this observation:
In view Of the crowded conditions
and confusion during the morning
session, we believe these cases
should be heard in the afternoon
so that the judge would have more
time to give to them and the de-
PENDANTS, a large number of whom
We have observed to be housewives,
would be enabled to appear
promptly with less hardship to
themselves and families than is
possible at an early morning hour.
As housewives, we can appreciate
how almost impossible it must be
for such a woman to get her school
age children of to school, get a
neighbor to look after the younger
children, get herself ready and
get to court by public conveyance,
or walk II she has no carfare, dur
ing the time Of great trafnc con-
gestion, in order to appear in court
by $50 am"
The association currently is con-

to appear In court when they re-
ceive summonses, only about 80 per
cent Of those sued now attending
the hearings. It contends that the
afternoon session would aid this
campaign by allowing more house.
