there Is a need for medical or surg
ical service?
We also know from personal ex-
perience that there is a serious
shortage of doctors for local hospi-
tails and home practices. Old folks
are prone to ills, babies are being
born. accidents happen, children
cannot be neglected, SO obviously
all doctors cannot be spared; there
must be substitution. II all the
young doctors are sent into the
armed forces. and only the old ones
left behind. some arrangement
should be made to fill the gaps
with women physicians or else
augment those who go by sending
women.
Prejudice Against Them
One may be prejudiced against
women doctors. but it's a most un-
warranted prejudice. Nor is it in
telligent to assume that they are
only fitted for gynecolog: cal cases.
They have the same educational
requirements and background as
men and. as see 1t. good doctor
Is a good doctor. irrespective of
sex. There are also many fine wo-
men surgeons. but even were this
not so and even II women were not
as good as men. they are or would
certainly be capable Of handling
many of the common cases that
come up in and out Of the service.
Why the discrimination against
them? The old-fogey notion that
woman's place Is In the home has
been strapped, besides which. how
can one reconcile this attitude, as
applied to women doctors, when
women nurses are encouraged to
leave home and young women are
being almost begged to train as
nurses?
There are women physicians at

CARNATIONS. ACS, WAVES.
SPARS and SO on, but they must
conflne their ministrations to the
organizations to which they be-
long.
Doesn't the Army and Navy
know that there are many excel
lent hospitals stated entirely by
women? The well-known New
York Inf1rmary for Women and
Children is one. for instance. and
many men who have been treated
by women doctors are sold on the
idea that they are as good. GER

men medicos.
Why Wait?
Undoubtedly, the restrictions
now placed on women doctors will.
in time. be removed. but why wait
when there is such need and such
supply from which to draw? There
are somewhere in the neighbour
hood Of 5000 women doctors in
the United States at this time.
Over the radio and in the press
come appeals to girls to take up
nursing as a profession. Consider
ing the portage OF available
nurses and the growing need for
them not only for the duration. but
for years after. II certainly seems
like a sensible solution Of the living
problem. Competent nurses are

Van Duzer Opposes
Move 10 Abandon
Auto Inspections
Challenges Accident
Doto Submitted by
Keystone Motor Club

District Traffic Director William
A. Van Duzer today declared he
vigorously opposes abandonment of
motor vehicle inspections here as
proposed last Monday by the Key
stone Motor Club during the Com
missioners' hearing on the depart
mental estimates for the 1914 Dis
trict budget.
Mr.. Van Duzer said his depart
ment was not prepared to relax any
OF the standards established when
inspections were begun in 1888. He
conceded that reflections, in many
instances. would force automobiles
off the road, but he said he con-
sidered it necessary both for safety
and conservation that deficient au-
tomobiles be denied certificates.
I'VE don't have the figures on it
yet, but we know that the trend so
far during the 1912 inspection Pc
riod shows more cars being rejected
than there were laso year" he
pointed out. Next year, the per-
centage will be even higher, and
that's going to continue until 1t is
again possible for the ordinary mo-
torist to buy new cars, tires and
parts. It's too bad that these cars
must be forced off the streets, in
many cases, but it's better that way

Since this is an entirely new field
Of Red Cross activity, an urgent
need exists for volunteers who will
take the instructors course of IS
hours to prepare them to give the
course within their own organiza-
tions or to general groups organized
by the District chapter. Speakers,
trained in the work, also are needed
to present the program to women's
clubs, parent-teacher associations,
citizens organizations and similar
groups.
While this program is designed as
an aid to the war effort, injuries
suffered away from work being one
of the leading causes of man-hour
loss in war activity, it is permanent
institution which will continue after
the war is over just as will the nu-

Approximately 300 Office workers

today were moving into their new

yesterday-exactly one week after

The building, which is a one-foor,

miles from Meadows.
An inf1rmary to treat workers on
the project also has been built, while
the foundations are being laid for

lunches for up to 5000 laborers, and
a machine repair shop.
Construction Of an employment
office is expected to be completed
today, according to 1t. Col. Eben

the work gets into full swing ap-
proximately 5000 workmen will
labor In two shifts Of 10 hours each.
An area 5000 feet long and 400

Last year "a Washingtonians were
killed in traffic accidents. In the
same period 1873 died as the result OF
accidents in their own homes. This
toll of home accidents was an i'm
provement over the previous year,
but is representative Of a condition
which has prevailed for many years.
Preventable accidents rank fifth
among all the causes of death in the
United States. Among children less
than 20 years of age they outrank
all other causes of death, with more
than half the deaths up to the age
Of IA being caused in this fashion.

than to allow them to be driven In
an unsafe condition"
Last year, Mr.. Van Duzer said,
one-fourth OF the passenger cars in
spected had to be turned down. for
deficiencies which were causing tire
waste. A total Of 1884 out OF the
1924 passenger cars registered in
the District were rejected on their
first tip to the stations for some
such deficiency. The inspectors also
turned down 43 per cent OF the
trucks, II per cent of the motor
cycles, % per cent OF the taxicabs
and 23 per cent Of the buses for
the same reasons.
The traffic director conceded that
inspectors might be less rigid in
examining features OF automobiles
not connected with either safety
or conservation. Speedometers, for
example. he sah, may get by these
days If hey are not in perfect shape,
inasmucn as it is difficult to replace
certain parts of their mechanism
ana since they are unlmportant as
a safety feature.
Where deficiencies are likely to
result in waste of tires or gaso-
line or result in damage to certain
parts, the examination will be more
rigid. If anything, Mr.. Van Duzer
declared.
Features with direct bearing on
tire conservation were listed as
wheel alignment, wheel bearings,
king pins. tie rods, steering drag
link and brake equalization.
The traffic chief denied that less
than per cent of the accidents in
the District were attributable to me-
chanical defects, as estimated by the
Keystone Club. He pointed out that
1t is frequently impossible to ascer-
tain from the wreckage OF car
whether there had been anything
wrong with the mechanism.

constantly increasing number OF
