Glenn Dale Sanatorium
Seeks Volunteer Nurses

An appeal to women graduates OF
home nursing courses to volunteer
for part-time work at Glenn Dale
Sanatorium was issued today by the
District Chapter of the American
Red Cross.
In a message to graduates of home
nursing courses, Health Officer
George c. Rutland declared that
the acute nursing shortage at
Glenn Dale brings us face to face
with the unfortunate possibility of
closing one more ward. We would
be unwillingly forced to send pa
tients away fro mthe institution"
Many of these tuberculosis pa
tients would have to be sent into
homes with improper facilities for
isolation and care Dr. Rutland S
message continued You can see
that this is something that we
would not like to do, for the health
Of the city would be in danger"
Holders of nome nursing certifi-
Gates are being contacted by letter
and telephone and some favorable
responses have been received. Last
Saturday the chapter told the de-
partment that it could offer so
aides.

Insurance Men Told
To Seek Legislation
In Light Of New Ruling
Ey the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June l6-Charles F. j.
Harrington. president OF the Ma
tional Association OF Insurance
Commissioners. suggested yesterday
the drafting of new legislation COW
ering insurance because OF last
weeks Supreme Court decision
classifying insurance as commerce
subject to interstate commerce and
kindred regulations.
Legislation recommended prior TO
the Supreme Court decision, he told
the association at its opening con-
vention session, is no longer suf1
GENTLY comprehensive.
Those of us who have read and
studied the decision should be here
authorized to offer to cooperate
with congressional leaders, he said,
Consideration should be given to
the effect of the decision in fire, life,
casualty and all branches Of the in
surance business.
Our association is best qualified
to impartially cooperate in the
drafting of such legislation
Gov. Dwight H. Green of Illinois
told the association that. as a result
of the Supreme Court decision, the
greatest test of State supervision OF
insurance is at hand"
State supervision now stands in
the clear light OF public opinion, y
Gov. Green said.
BY the excellence of its work
and the protection it gives the poi
icyholder it must win and retain his
devoted and militant support, and
by doing so halt the dangerously
broad march of centralized govern
ment and give impetus to the fight
of the States to regain and retain
their constitutional rights" he said.

Among these is an increase in the div

1914, applying to most types of indi-

This action reflects the favorable trend
Of mortality experience in recent years
and the continued financial progress Of

years, the Society has been substantially
strengthening surplus and reserves. This
has now progressed to the point where it
is felt that an increased distribution Of

made.
