Holman Plans
D. T.. Ballot on
Regime Here
GoIIinger Probe Head
Cites Lack of Fixed
Authority in District

Chairman Holman of the Senate
subcommittee which investigated
Gallinger Hospital announced TO-DAY
that as result of his findings he
planned to sponsor a resolution au-
thorizing creation of a Charter
commission through which dis
franchised residents OF the District
could, by popular vote, inform Con-
ereSS whether they want change
IN the present commission form OF
government.
The inquiry, he said. showed the
immediate causes of conditions at
Galhnger, could be located" in:
Il. Inadequate facilities, equip
nhent and supplies.
.. Shortage of number and un-
satisfactory kind of employees.
3. Lack of discipline throughout
the institution"
The Gallinger inquiry. said Sena-
tor Holman. Republican, Of Oregon
brought up the most important
element in the present form of the
District Government which should
be corrected-"the fixing of author
itv and responsibility.
Asks Charter Commission.
The three Commissioners and
other municipal officials. he de-
elared, are not responsible TO the
people of the District. Maybe the
people here are satisfied with the
present form Of government, he
said. but to find out definitely their
opinion he is preparing a resolution
authorizing creation of a charter
commission"
The conduct of Commissioner
Guy Mason. who refused to discuss
the Galllnger situation before the
subcommittee last week. Senator
Holman explained. "eXempliied"
the attitude Of the District officials
He said Commissioner Mason real
Hed he was hot responsible to anv
one other than to the President who
appointed him. for his public acts
or for the entire absence of per-
forming any duties in connection
with the administration of the Dis
trlct.'
Under that attithde and Setup
what would happen to the people
OF the District should sudden
disaster occur mere which at times
have visited other cities OF cur
eountry?" he asked. A government
which is not responsive to the needs
OF the governed in ordinary times
would prove totally helpless and
inefficient In an emergency.
Reflects Other Conditions.
What is obvious at Callineer
Hospital no doubt reflects the COM
mon conditions which prevail at
other municipal institutions and n
the city departments. Therefore
the fundamental remedy for exist
Ing conditions at GallinSer Hospital
Is to be found in the overall gov
ernment of the District Itself"
Senator Holmans views were cut
lined in 300-Word statement issued
to newspaper reporters who Gov
ered' the hearings last week before
his subcommittee He added how
ever eXtemporaneously that from
what he had learned during the
inquiry District officials seem to
have only a payroll interest in
their Jobs" and lack zeal and in
spiration.'
Newspaper reporters asked SEN
stor Holman if he intended TO sup
port the already announced recon-
mendations of Senator BuShfleld
Republican. of South Dakota for
a shape-up in the Gallinger per-
sOnnel. To this query ne replied
