"The lower tribunals, such as Mu nicipal Court, the Magistrate's Court, the poor man's court, are perhaps more important than the higher courts in the land,” he declared. “The success of institutions lies in these contacts and every judge, whatever his court, has a very im portant obligation, to see to it, as far as his power goes, that the ma chinery of Justice receives the con fidence and respect of every citizen.” Greeted by Applause. Members of the conference, held in Court of Appeals courtroom, rose to greet the Chief Justice with hearty applause as he was intro duced by Chief Justice D. Lawrence Groner of the appellate tribunal. Sitting with them on the court bench were Judge John Parker, senior jurist of the Fourth Circuit, and Henry P. Chandler, director of the administrative office of the United States courts. The approx imately 100 persons attending in cluded judges of all the courts here, representatives of the United States attorney’s office, representatives of the Federal, Patent, Women's, Dis trict and Washington Bar Associa tions. Justice Hughes, who was instru mental in obtaining passage of leg islation which calls for the annual conference in each circuit between members of the bar and the bench, said that such a gathering would greatly facilitate the administration of justice by bringing forth many ideas that otherwise would not have the attention they deserved. "I like the idea,” the speaker said, “of the District court judges meet ing the judges of the appellate bench face to face and telling them what they think of them.” He added that it likewise would be advantageous for members of the bar to express their views to the judges. He also stressed the impor tance of informality in the con ference. Parker Outlines Purpose. Prom Judge Parker the conference heard an outline of the purposes of the gathering.

A purpose of the confer ence is to bring such ideas up for consideration. He said that the par ticipation of members of the bar and by representatives of law schools is an important factor in the discus sions. Supports Court House Plan. Support of the proposal to erect a new courthouse for District Court was pledged by Mr. Chandler, whose office has the duty of providing ac commodations for the use of the courts. He said to obtain the new structure it will be necessary “as a practical matter” to have the Fed eral Works Agency include the proj ect in its building program and then to obtain an appropriation from Congress. He pointed out that the initiative for such an enterprise must come from the District, but pledged his co-operation in the movement. The two-day conference was to continue this afternoon following a luncheon at the Cosmos Club with only District judges and judges of the Court of Appeals participating. The conference will open at 10 a m. tomorrow, and in the afternoon only the judges will meet to discuss prob lems, as today. At 7 p.m. tomorrow a dinner spon sored by the District, Federal, Wom en's and Patent Bar Associations will be held at the Mayflower Hotel.

Two Central Schools For Handicapped Children Sought Board of Education To Get Committee's Program Next Month A recommendation for two cen- j tral schools for white and colored handicapped children will be sent to the Board of Education some time in June by its Advisory Com mittee on Handicapped Children. The committee’s proposal, adopt ed last night, specified the sites for the two schools should include recreation space and did not nec essarily have to be located near Children’s and Freedmens Hos pitals. Previously it had been consid ered desirable by school officials that the schools be located near the hospitals. The committee felt that sunshine and gardens out weighed any advantages of nearness to the two institutions, especially after Dr. Joseph A. Murphy of the Health Department said the chil dren as a rule would not need medical checkups oftener than every two months. It was indicated bus transportation should be provided. The schools would house crippled, cardiac and sight conservation chil dren. and any others thought by the Health Department to require education in such a school. The schools would have classes for Junior high school as well as elementary grades. The committee suggested that cafeterias be provided as in other schools and that children unable to afford meals be taken care of -as they now are In the regular To put Its entire program Into effpct the committee recommended a legislative program calling for: 1. Legislation for special classes for Braille Instruction with an ap propriation for special equipment. 2. Legislation for special classes for the partially hearing children with an appropriation for special equipment. 3. Legislative provision for classes for cardiac children with a support'' ing appropriation. 4. Legislative provision for in struction in lip reading plus a sup porting appropriation. 5. Recommendation that the Health Department seek funds for psychiatric service and an eye clinic headed by an opthalmologist. «. Authorisation for the two schools with funds for sites, plans and buildings. The committee gave a vote of thanks to Miss Gladys Evans of the office of the Board of Education for her work as committee secre tary.
