Actual members of the present
board, in addition to Col. Hayes,
chairman, are William H. Cary,
jr., director of Public Health En-
gineering, and J. J. Ilgenfritz,

Gen. Young pointed out that,
regardless of how the board is
strengthened, it Is fundamentally
unsound" to place it's activity in
the hands of three men who
occupy responsible positions in
the District government to which
they must give most of their time.
Moreover, the task of running
an operating agency of this sort
is in principle better performed
by'a single executive head than
by board or committee" Gen.

in Baltimore and the same policy
should probably be adopted here"
