7 Minor D. T.. Bills
Expected 10 Pass
House Tomorrow
First Would Amend Act
On Practice Of Medicine;
Second Is for Legal Fee
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.

Chairman Randolph of the House
District Committee expects two nom
controversial bills to be passed
promptly tomorrow in the House.
One would amend the act to regu-
late the practice of the healing arts
here and the other would authorize
payment of an additional fee for
professional services to Joseph
Sharfsin of Philadelphia, who saved
the District a considerable amount
in a deed Of trust case 13 years ago.
Mr.. Randolph, in his report to
the House, explained that the bill
relating to practice of medicine pro-
vides the District Commission in
Licensure with sufficient funds for
making its own Investigations of
illegal practice. License fees never
have been sufficient to support this
ofice and since the emergency war
period revenues have fallen. The
bill requires annual registration at
merely nominal fee, as in most
States. Annual registration would,
he adds, be helpful in keeping the
Health Department constantly in
formed Of doctors activities. The
Commissioners approved this legis-
lation.-
: Fee In Trust Fund Case.
The additional fee to Mr.. Sharf-
sin grew out Of the $75 900 trust
fund accounted for by the Gfrard
Trust Co., in the estate of Miss
Helen Marie Fink of washington
who disappeared while on a voyage
from New York to California. Three
sets of claimants appeared It be-
came necessary for the District to
protect its interests by employing q
lawyer familiar with all phases of
Pennsylvania practice. The Dis
trict Commissioners and the Cor
poration Counsel advised that the
additional fee was well earned.
Representative McGehee, Demo-
crat, Of Mississippi has arranged for
subcommittee hearings Wednesday
on the bill to regulate hours of
WOIIlcI III u1OuSLIy.
Child Labor Proposals.
Considerable interest has been
shown by representatives of many
District organizations in the pro-
posal that the child labor law here
be revised generally. The District
Committee has asked DR.. Frank w.
Ballou, superintendent of schools,
who suggested the legislative action,
to confer with Corporation Counsel
Richmond B. Keech and have a
corrective bill drafted. One provi-
sion would permit school children
to engage in part-time work during
periods. The House Dis
trict Committee has had many re-
quests from persons who wish to be
heard when the re-drafted bill is
considered.
