District agency wider or regional
authority or if it created a new
agency to regulate transit service
on a regional basis.
If the new agency is set up, he
added, it should consist of desig-

sions, so as to promote co-ordi-
mated regulation and avoid con-
flicts between the present and new
agencies.
Mr.. Flanagan was grilled by
Chairman johnson as to why he
had not discussed regional transit
problems with the neighboring
commissions. He said he had not
done so, with certain exceptions,
because the District commission
lacked any legal authority.
Ownership Problem Cited.
The simplest solution, he said,
would be common ownership of
the companies operating in and
near Washington. He said he saw
no prospect Of that. He applied
the same thought to an integrated
Ior. joint-fare system. e- :, 9
Mr.. Flanagan stressed also that
some of the suburban lines oper-
ate at a loss and that District
citizens would object to having
these losses covered by District
riders. ......

men for the Census Bureau, and
the Air Force Department. Action
also was urged by Gardner jack

For the Air Force, Allen j
O'Brien declared present services

Defense Department and handicap

stressed that the Defense Depart

Wider Medical Care
Programs Urged al
Meeting Of Doctors
By Wallace (. Cloyton

A New York City Health De-
partment official today called for
broadened medical care programs
for medically INDECENT mothers as
one of several ways to reduce in
FAINT mortality.
Dr.-Leona Baumgartner, assist
ant commissioner of the New York
Health Department and a former
official in the Children's Bureau
here. told members of the Ameri-
can Academy of Pediatrics at the
Hotel Statler:
"Some day. somehow, we need
to find better ways of distribut-
ing good medical care so that all
get it-and begin to find more
effective solutions to the prob
lens created by the low economic
and social status of the many
families which contribute so
heavily to fetal and neo-natal
mortality rates today"
Opens Three-Day Session.
DR.. Baumgartner, who is also
assistant professor of pediatrics at
the Cornell Medical College, was
q member of a panel on care of
the new born which opened the
three-day session of 1000 pedia-
tricians.
The health official said pro-
vision of nutritional supplements
to the fundless pregnant woman
and obstretrical consultation or
even continuing disqualification
for selected cases are devices that
should be further explored and
eyaluated.
Wider Medical Care Programs.
DR.. Baumgartner said many in
FAINT deaths are preventable IF all
mothers and infants got the care
that is available in the better ma
ternity and pediatric services"
She called for improvement in
hospitals with poor standards. For
example, she said, in most areas
today certain basic sanitary re-
quirements have to be met by all
hospitals, with newborn services.
rs it too much to think such
hospitals should also. for example,
be asked to have blood on hand to
combat hemorrhage, have
trained anesthetist, or adhere to
the widely accepted policy of hav-
ing the complicated case seen by
some physician of more than ordi-
nary skill?"
Without Consultation.
She said recent study in New
York showed many women were
delivered by staff doctors, with
out consultation with an obstetri-
clan. In only half the hospitals,
she said, was blood typing a
routine procedure and Is of 76
hospitals had no blood on the
premises. -
Df. Baumgartner also called
for another national institute for
integrated and concentrated re-
search in the field of human
reproduction and closer co-opera-
tion between obstetrician and
pediatrician. -
Scientists from the National
Institutes of Health were to read
scientific papers at this after
Moons session.
The attending pediatricians from
all over the country were well
coined at the opening session by
DR.. Joseph S. Wall. a long time
pediatrician here and former chief
of staff of Children's Hospital.

Arnold Lines Refused
Permission 10 Drop Tokens
By the Associated Press

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission yesterday refused to per-
nit the Washington, Virginia g.
Maryland Coach Co. to drop the
use of tokens in its passenger bus
fare schedules.
The commission in 1949 granted
the company. operating between
Washington and Virginia suburbs
|as the Arnold Lines, a general fare
increase. Under the zone system,
this put the charges on a range of
20 cents to 40 cents. At the same
time, the ICC authorized the sale
of tokens at six for 81 amounting
to 1928 cents each) for use alone
or in combination with cash-a
saving of 3ls cents per ride.
The 1CC noted that the COM
Ipany's express purpose in cancell-
ing the tokens was to increase rev.
|enues to meet increased operating
costs. The ICC said:
"Since the increased expenses
are general in nature, they should
be applied wherever practical to all
of respondents traffic. The con-
clusion is inescapable that the
proposed cancellation of token
fares has not been justified.
