BALTIMORE, Feb. 4. - The
Baltimore delegation in the
House of Delegates was conf
dent today that a procedure
without practical precedent
the Grand Inquest-will be in
voked to settle the Baltimore
transit strike.
But as the tie-up went through
its sixth dreary day there was
Q claim that the unusual step
with the House sitting as a
super grand jury-might pro-
long instead of settle the strike
Whether the Grand Inquest
would be voted as readily as the
Baltimore lawmakers believe re.
manned a matter of speculation
here tonight. Rural legislators
who have no bus or trolley prob
lems-reportedly were cool to the
whole idea.
Former Judge Joseph Sher-
bow. chief negotiator for the
Baltimore Transit Co.. asserted
the Grand Inquest, or any pom
derous machinery. may impede
q settlement.
Meanwhile, there was a dim
flicker of hope of an end to the
strike. For the first time since
the transit facilities stopped run
ming last Monday the full nego-
tiGting committees of the COM
pany and the transit workers
union met today. They gathered
in Mayor Thomas D'AleSandro's
Office.
As the session wore on into
late evening hours. Mayor Dale
sandro reported IAN optimistic
air" pervaded the parley. But
no break in the deadlock APP
peared imminent.

Grond Inquest Proposed
On Baltimore Bus Strike
BY FRANCIS DOUGLAS
Star stan Correspondent

Delegates to. sit as the Grand
Inquest of the State is provided
in the Maryland Constitution
The House then would have al
most unlimited powers Of inves-
tigation.
No one here or in Annapolis
could recall today when this
power had been invoked before
One veteran official at Annap-
oils, with experience going back
to 1904, could remember no
Grand Inquest in his time. Nor
did he recall having heard Of any
instance in preceding decades.
If the time table Of those
counting on the Grand Inquest
to settle the strike is realized,
these events will follow: The
House will approve Monday night
the order for it to act as the
Grand Inquest. The inquisitorial
procedure will be launched on
Tuesday. Initial steps will be to
set up rules and to designate
counsel.
Jerome Robinson Of Balti-
more's Fourth District. a dele
gate since 1899. said the man
sought to serve as counsel should
not be involved in Maryland
politics. He Said he might be
found in the Washington area.
He should not be identified with
either the company or the un-
ion. Mr.. Robinson said. and he
should be familiar with the pub
lie utility business.
OF the investigation, Mr.. Rob-
inson said a practical problem
arises from the fact that the
current session of the General
Assembly is limited to 80 days.
It began February /.

we're fractured and his jaw was
broken. He was cross-hatched
with cuts and bruises. There was
extensive damage to the internal
organs.
Brain Is Injured
But the brain damage made
these other hurts seem minor,
one surgeon said yesterday
There was a rigidity of the brain
system, land the functions of
the brain were not getting
through to his spinal areas"
That rigidity has decreased.
He is making what I think
are voluntary movements with
his hands," the doctor said. I'VE
think he is able to follow us
about the room with his eyes
sometimes. I've felt he was a
little bit aware of his environ
ment and I've tried to talk to
him. but I can't say that I'm
getting through"
The doctor added there sis
still plenty Of time for improve
ment. And ! don't think his
present coma condition Is neces-
sarily a sign against improve
ment. The prognosis is still
guarded. He has lost a lot OF
weight. but his nutrition has re-
manned remarkably good. I am
confident he is showing neuro-
logical progress"
Another surgeon said, Rex is
still in a generally precarious
condition" But this doctor also
said the patient seems to be
gaining.
Skull Fracture Suspected
Young Mr.. McDonald's skull
may be fractured. but X-rays OF
the head have been so poor the
doctors cannot be sure. they said.
I'VE can't put him on the
X-ray table" a surgeon said
I'VE have had to use portable
'X-rays and we can't get a good
picture. I didn't see any frac-
lures when ! operated on him
