and that the fare in taxis be reduced
to Is cents.
In explaining the reasons for the
recommendations he wrote:
ut must be admitted that the
transportation problem is becoming
more difficult all the time and that
there are far too many cars. public
or private, carrying only one pas
senger, thus adding to the hazard
without assisting to solve the prob
lem"
Continuing. Mr. Delano suggested
the reduction of the area Of taxi

the regulation forcing private cars
to carry three passengers into the
zone; the establishment of certain
express thoroughfare on which all
parking would be prohibited. and

Full Scale Air Attack Begun
On Isle North Of Australia

by the Associated Press.
MELBOURNE, Australia, Jan. 90
A ful-scale air attack on Rabaul,
in Australian inundated New Brit
ain, north of Australia, was launched
today by Japanese bombers escorted
by fighters, an onicial announcement
said today.
The announcement said the raid
ers presumably were striking from
an aircraft carrier.
The attack marked an extension
of Japanese activity to an area $500
miles east Of Singapore and about
1000 southwest OF Honolulu.
Rabaul, 300 miles below the
equator, is New Britain's major
city. Neighboring islands are New
Guinea on the west, the Solomons
on the east.
The attack was announced by Air
Minister A. S. Drakeford, who said
it was launched about midday with
waves of planes bombing the air
base.
installations on it and other mill
tary objectives were damaged, he
acknowledged, but no details were
divulged. He said his own informa-
ton was meager but that further
reports were expected later.

Churchill Anxious
.0ver Pacific War,
But Sees Victory
Grants Three-Doy Debate
And Offers to Submit
To Confidence Vote
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Jan. 20.-Prime Min
lister Churchill, confronting a
restive House of Commons, in
formed it's members today that
he shared their anxiety about
operations in the Pacific, but told
them he had growing conf
dence" in eventual victory there.
Announcing that three-day de-
bate would be held soon on the war
situation, the Prime Minister also
showed evidence Of equal confidence
in his personal strength"
Addressing Parliament for the first
time since his return from the his
toric conferences in Washington and
Ottawa, the Prime Minister offered
to call for a vote Of confidence If
the debate should disclose any chal-
lenge to his government.
Wins Initial Victory.
Mr.. Churchill won an initial vic
tory against a threat to force his
hand and obtain an immediate dis
cussion of the defense OF Malaga.
AS promised, Liberal National
Member Edgar Granville moved
that the House adjourn-a parlia-
mentary device that would enable
the members to e.estion at once
the adequacy of British strength
guarding threatened Singapore.
Mr.. Churchill prevailed, however,
when the speaker refused to enter
tain the motion. No member rose
to support Mr.. Granville and the
matter was dropped. Such motion
requires the support of at least 40
members.
Hoarse- voiced and suffering from
a cold, Mr.. Churchill was loudly
cheered when he entered the
chamber.
When asked if he were prepared
to make a statement to allay men,
bers' anxieties, the Prime Minister
replied:
Il naturally share the anxieties
that are felt on the war in the Far
East But also share a growing
confidence, which I think might also
be justified, in the eventual outcome
of this struggle"
Asks Talks Be Recorded.
In winning postponement-
which will enable him to consult
advisers inaccessible to him during
his absence in America-the Prime
Minister proposed that his war re-
view and any future major state
ments be recorded during delivery
for subsequent broadcast.
There never has been a broadcast
from the halls of Parliament, nor
recording of the debate on its
floor, and there was such a variety
of opinion on Mr.. Churchills sug-

Hospital Facilities
For 'Semi-|ndigent'
Urged by Mason
Commissioner Sees
Subsidies os Only
Other Solution

Commissioner Mason told the
House District Committee the
city heads have arrived at the
opinion that new hospital facili-
ties for the mi-indigent" or
subsidies for private institutions
are the only solutions to an ex-
listing shortage of hospital beds
here.
Maury Maverick, chief of the gov
ernmental requirements branch,
ONCE of Production Management,
later recommended both expedients.
The expressions came as hearings
we're held on bill introduced by
Chairman Randolph authorizing
construction of temporary build
ings with a total of 1000 beds at
Gallinger Hospital and the Glenn
Dale tuberculosis Sanitoria.
The Commissioners realize that
there is an in-between field here, u
Mr.. Mason said.
He called attention to persons
earning $500. $1,000 or $4,000 a
year who cannot pay a minimum
charge of 81 a day or on up to s6
day for treatment.
Hospital Site Offered.
Ofdcials of private hospitals who
took the stand later agreed. in
general, that they were in need of
help because their institutions were
unable financially to undertake ex-
panSion.
DR.. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president
of George Washington University
introduced DR.. Walter A. Bloedorn,
dean of the medical school and su-
perintendent of the Univrsity Hos
pital, who said he was authorized
to offer for hospital construction
approximately four -fifths of a city
block at Twenty-third and G streets
NV.
The site could accommodate a
hospital of $50 to 500 beds, depend
ing on height of the building.
The Rev DR.. David B. McCauley
dean of the medical school OF
Georgetown University, said that
institution probably could provide
land if money for construction were
made available.
| DR.. McCauley and B. B. Sandidge,
superintendent of Emergency Hos

pay care in Government facilities
should be examined very carefully
before decision is reached. Mr.

Fight 10 Delay Trial

To Appeals Court
Government Will Seek
Writ to DisquoIify
Justice GoIdsboroueh

Backing up the Governments
charges Of a personal prejudice
and bias filed yesterday against
District Judge T. Alan Colds
borough, the Justice Department
prepared today to ask the Court
of Appeals to prevent Justice
Goldsborough from going ahead
tomorrow with the trial Of
George Sylvester Viereck. widely
known Nazi publicist. who is &C
cused of violating the Foreign
Agents Registration Act by filing
incomplete registration state
mentS with the State Depart
ment.
After a conference at the Justice
Department this morning it was
decided that Solicitor General Fahy
would ask the Court of Appeals for
writs of prohibition and mandamus
requiring Judge Goldsborough tc
disqualify himself from presiding
at the trial.
The department expected to ap-
ply for the writs directly to Chief
Justice D. Lawrence Groner, but it
was possible that another member
of the appellate body would act
on the case. There were three pos
sible developments out of this ac-
ton, it was said at the department..
The writs may be granted imme-
diately, they may be denied or they
may be set down for hearing by the
Court of Appeals.
II hearing were ordered, a tenn
porary stay of the Viereck trial
would be directed also pending final
action on the Justice Departments
application
If Justice Goldsborough were i'm
mediately disqualified, the Viereck
trial might 60 on tomorrow, but
that point was not definitely de-
cided.
William Power Maloney, special
assistant to the Attorney General,
who is representing the Government
in the Viereck prosecution, filed the
charges against Judge Goldsborough
late yesterday when the jurist an
nounced his intention of going ahead
with the trial tomorrow despite the
contention of the Government that
its case had not been adequately
prepared. The Government had not
expected the Viereck trial would
come up until next month.
Claims Attitude "Arbftrary."

ough's attitude in his chambers on

counsel called upon him, was "arbi-
