They Pay $6,000 A Year Rent, ~—In a smart street in a smart house, immaculate white- gloved hands of liveried door- ‘men let them in and out. Housemen with vacuum clean- ers keep their apartment free from dust. Yet they keep food on the kitchen window- sill—exposed to dust and dirt and endangered by the ups and downs of temperature.

HOSPITAL Appeal to Be Made for Funds for Emergency, Now Run- i ning Casualty Also. | Washington will be asked to con- tribute half a million dollars to clear Emergency Hospital from debt, fur- nish additional accommodations and provide for ever-increasing demands upon the institution, it was an- nounced offictally today by Woodbury Blalr, president of Emergency uand Casualty hospitals. The appeal, it is {planned, will be made on or about March 1. A new nurse's home is one of the urgent necessities facing the Insti- tution, Mr. Blalr's statement points out, and two of the bulldings now temporarily occupied by the nurses are in such condition that they should be vacated and razed to the ground. _The statement also explains the mo- tives actuating the board of directors at Emergency Hospital in taking over Casualty Hospital when it was faced with bankruptey. Mrs, Mays Resigni Mrs. Margaret A. Mays, superin- tendent of Casualty Hospital, has ten- dered her resignation to the board of directors, which meets this afternoon, it was learned today, declaring that much 1s needed to place the Institu- tion In first shape. She said that she had expected that some at- tention would be given this problem, but that upon learning vesterday there were no plans on foot for the | reconditioning of the institution, de- cided to turn in her resignationm, ef- fective today “The bourd of directors of Emergency Hospital.” reads the Blair - statement, appreciating _the broad field of usefullness covered by Casualty Hospital and the extensive service it renders to our citizens, par- ticularly those in the northeast sec- tion, concluded that it would be a civil calamity should the casualty be closed. “It was, therefore, with a sense of the gréat responsibility that the directors of Emergency Hospital, de- pending upon the public to sustain their ection, offered on Lehalf of the Emergency to become responsible for {the payment by the Casualty Hos- { pital of its indebtedness, amounting to $45,000, and thus secure the con- tinuation of its services to the pub- lc: and it is hoped that under a partial reorganization and with the co-operation of the citizens of Cap- itol Hill and the physiclans of the v, uaity Hospital will be s operation. Hospital on or 1 make & direct ap- the public for the sum of $500,000 to clear itself of debt, furnish additional accommodations for in- digent and other patients and pro- vide to meet the ever-increasing de- mands on the hospital, which, in part, is owing to the increased population of the city, the number of strangers jwho visit the city and automobile and trafic accident Charge No Fees in Charity Cases. “The maintenance and operation of v Hospital will also be an , as no public hos- hout rich endowments can be upporting. i “When an emergency or dispensary patient can afford to make a smail the to he Emergenc peal to but no fee or contribution is ever demanded, and no patient has even been refused admission and treatment on account of inability to pay for such service. The fees al- lowed by the board of charities en- tail a loss to the hospital of $1.70 per day for each patient credited to the District of Columbia, but even the small compensation ailowed for char- ity patients is preferable to no re- muneration and is gratefully re- ceived. It should be understood that Ja comparutively large number of the {charity patients treated at the Emer- [ gency Hospital are not eligible un- der the rules of the board of chari- ties to be charged to the District and are therefore treated without com- pensaion “I have gone into these details to explain that with the most careful management the actual maintenance of the hospital entails a loss of not less than $30,000 per annum, which does not include replacement. exten- sion of service, and _improved efficiency; but when the extent of the services rendered to the community, which included 6,616 emergency pa- tients out of a total of 26 patients treated at the hospital dur- ing the past year, the deficit is not unreasonable, but proves the im- portance of maintaining the hospital. “The Emergency and Casualty Hos- pitals are institutfons in which every citizen has a direct personal interest, and when citizens have contributed for other meritorious causes they can well afford to give to the institution to which they or the members of their family are liable, at any hour of the day or night, to appeal.” DAWES AND YOUNG OPEN PARIS PARLEYS Jean V. Parmentier Among Of- ficials Engaged in Con- versations, cepted. By the Associated Press. ¢ PARIS, January 11.—Charles G. Dawes and Owen B. Young, the Amer- ican representatives on the first ex- pert reparation committee, are hav- g long conversations with various persons connected with the repara- tion problem, among them Jean V. Parmentier, preliminary to the open- ing of thelr committee’s work next Monday. It is understood the Americans have decided that it would be prudent in the beginning to confine the inquiry to practical questions, such ag the stabilization of German currency, probably by a new bank {ssue; advice upon the formation of the budget so Germany can pay its government's internal expenses out of its revenue; the length of the moratorium neces- sary before reparation payments can be vesumed, and cogent questions. Their attitude, it is said, will be re- ceptive with the desire’ of offering constructive suggestions as oppor- tunity may arise. Atmosphere More Favorable, The atmosphere in Which the com- mittee will begin its work appears more favorable &ian at any time since the signing of the peace treaty, The failure of all previous plans of settlement is attributed to the funda. mental states of mind in both Ger- many and France. The successive gov- ernments in Berlin were regarded in [r‘nnc. as following policles of mon- ! payment, dlsorganizing their own budgets and depreciating the mark to- the last limit, which resulted in what Is described by Germany as a daugante economic situation, The German government and its op- position are reported now to be will- ing to accept any sincere endeavor to_execute measures which may be suggested ‘to .them. This change of mind on the/Part of Germany is re- flected in the medified attitude of the French government.
