DR.. Rutland Silent
On Protests After
Glenn Dale Visit
White Nurses Oppose
Transfers to Make
Room for CoIored

DR.. George c. Ruhland, District
health officer, who spent some time
at Glenn Dale tuberculosis Sana-
torium yesterday, continued today
his policy of being non-commital
on the protests of Glenn Dale white
nurses against plans to transfer
some of them to Gallinger Hospital
to make way for l6 colored nurses.
A request to DR.. Ruhland's ONCE
for a statement from him on the
situation went unanswered up to
noon today. He was in his Office
this morning following his confer
ence at the Institution yesterday
with officials. Although DR.. Rutland
had nothing to say, it was learned
he had taken up the matter during
his visit to Glenn Dale.
Nine white nurses, it is understood,
had been ordered transferred to Gal
inger or given the alternative of
resigning Those who would remain
have protested against the bringing
in Of colored nurses.
Colored organisations in the city
have defended the right of the COL
ored nurses to work in the hospital.
The plan had been, it is understood,
for colored nurses to care for colored
patients.
White nurses at the institution
have appealed to several members
of Congress, as well as to District
officials, to prevent the sending of
colored nurses to Glenn Dale. The
appointments would be made under
the District supply bill passed yes
terday by Congress.

treasures" to the gallery's collection.
DR.. Charles c. Abbot, secretary of
the Smithsonian Institution, said to-

In a statement of appreciation,
Dr. Abbot said:
The consummation of the munifi-
cent gift by Samuel H. Kress of New
York of his great collection of Ital-
ian and other art to the Smithsonian
Institution for the National Gallery
of Art is a source of deep gratitude
and qualification, not only to the
institution and the gallery, but to
art lovers everywhere.
1T is impossible to overestimate
the gracious influence the contem-
plation of these masterpieces and
those comprising Mr.. Melons Won
derful collection will exert on the
millions of visitors who will come
to the gallery as to a shrine in the
years to come.
But great and intrinsically valu-
able as this gift is, the spirit which
prompted Mr. Kress to make his COL
lection accessible to the public in the
National Gallery cannot fail to in
1uence other great private collectors
to add their treasures to those of MIR.

themselves will make our National

His early training was in civil en-.
gineering, road and trail work
Southwestern archaeology and botany
with the Highway Department OF
New Mexico. He went into the Gov
ernment service in 1925 at Mess
Verde National Park and was
brought by Secretary Ickes to Wash
ington after they had struck up a
friendship when Mr.. Ickes visited
Mr.. Finnan's park.
Was Active In d. c. Affairs.
In addition to his service in the
development of the parks in the
District, Mr.. Finnan has also served
as a member of the District Com
mittee on Recreation and has taken
an active part in District affairs
serving on numerous committees
devoted to civic and charitable en-
deavor, among them the Community
Chest.
Mr.. Ickes announced that Mr.
Finnan's broad knowledge of the
Southwest and familiarity with de-
partmental policies and procedure
gained during his stay in Washing
ton, were among the deciding fac
tors in making the transfer.
Mr.. Ickes said that no successor
would be appointed Immediately to
Mr.. Finnans post. Pending such ap-
pointment, Asst. Supt. Frank T.
Gartside will be acting head OF the
local park system.
This leaves to Mr.. Gartside and
Lewis R. Barrett, newly appointed
director of recreation for the Dis
trict, the spade work on a compre-
hensive and co-ordinated recreation
system for the District.
Parks Growth.
During Mr.. Finnan's six-year stay
here he has seen many major i'm
provements in the Washington park
system come to pass, among then
the final development Of the Mall
development Of Fort Dupont Park
the Rock Greek and Potomac Park
way and Fort Stevens Park. as well
as the purchase and partial develop
ment of the G. & o. Canal and many
other items in the city's park and
recreation system. Programs OF
education and amusement in the
parks have grown to large proper
tions during his superintendency
and the annual number of park
users has reached the millions.
Mr.. FRANKIE formerly served as as
sistant superintendent of Mesa
Verde Park under Mr.. Finnan. His
knowledge of archaeology is the gov
erning factor in his transfer, as the
chief items of interest at Mesa Verde
are the cliff dwellings of ancient In
dian tribes.
Mr.. FRANKIE was born In Leipzig
Germany, and came with his family
to the United States as a child. He
was educated at New York Univer-
sity and served in the United States
