Health Department }!
Hospital Aid Activity
Selected 10 Direct

The District Commissioners have
appointed the Health Department
to supervise District participation
under the terms Of the Hill-Burton
hospital construction aid bill.
The bill. which authorizes appro-
prlation of 100000 annually for
the next five years to the States and
the District to increase hospital ia
cllities. would provide some $780,
600 annually for use locally on a
basis of two local dollars to one
Federal dollar.
1t also requires designation of q
single agency to administer the pro-
gram which the United States pub
lie Health Service is handling on a
national basis.
Health Officer George c. Ruhland
said Yesterday that budget hearings
nave delayed action temporarily by
the Commissioners in taking up the
local option.
The next steps, he indicated, will
be formal application by the Com
mlssioners for participation by the
District and the appointment of an
advisory committee representative
OF the officials and the public to
work with the Health Department
The act does not specify the size
OF such an advisory committee, DR..
Ruhland said, but requires its crea-
ton.
The health officer pointed out
that as yet the program was only
authorized and that money would
nave to be appropriated by the next
Congress.

Judge Scott Persuodes Tenants and Landlord.
To Show Tolerance Even After Winning Suits
Two Additional Courts
To Be Operated This
Month to Breuk Jam
By Horriet Griffiths

People 60 to landlord tenant court
to find out who has the legal right
to a home. But Judge Almond w.
Scott Is man who doesn't stop
right there.
In his court, landlords and ten
ants alike always are finding there s
a little ground to be given by in
voking the laws of tolerance and
understanding.
Il have no power under the law
to give you any time in which to
move" he will tell a tenant after
deciding his landlord is legally en-
titled to possession of his home.
But now that this gentleman knows
your situation, perhaps he can see
his way clear -
And most of the time, the gentle
man can see his way clear to keep
some one from finding himself and
his possessions on the sidewalk. q.
200 Trials Pending.
The more than 200 landlord-ten-
ant jury trials pending in Municipal
Court are a major factor in the
emergency now existing because of
backlog of 800 civil jury cases.
During next month. judges of the
Municipal Court of Appeals will
step into the lower court to help
cut down the backlog.
AS a result, two additional full
time landlord-tenant jury courts
will operate during the month.

for church rent, and, besides, the
membership had fallen down lately.
Maybe we'd better give the
church break" put in the attor-
ney. We'll give them until We'd
nesday."
Somebody ought to go there and
STIR up the members-maybe you,
sir Judge Scott told the lawyer,
amid laughter in the courtroom.
In another case, a landlady fin
ally consented to give her wayward
tenant 80 days in which to move. al
though she had charged heatedly
that he cooked in his room and his
friends kept things in an uproar by
running in and out all the time.
What was more, she said, he had
brought his common-laW wife to live
In his room, bringing her total num-
Der OF roomers to more than was al
lowed by health regulations.
Loud Talking Charged.
Some of my relatives came,' the
defendant explained. And you
know how country people talk
loud :"
Some of our city people talk loud,
too" observed the court with a
smile.
The jurist showed a deep concern
for what he called "the worst aspect"
OF the housing shortage, exempli-
fed by another case. A mother of
nine had contracted to buy house
for $500 to have a place to move.
She had to give her tenant 80 DAYS
and wanted little more time in her
present home.
The unfortunate, situation is"
the judge said, that people with
very small means take everything
they've got in the world and put
it In as equity on a house. Very
often they lose it later. They think
they're getting something over their
heads, but they're not getting any,
thing.
"A high powered salesman comes
along and these people put Up all
they have. In six months it is gone.
They've become easy prey to some
OF these unscrupulous men who take
