Expeditious and economical cedure in the erection of the Arling pro- | ar of a point of order made in the House yesterday by Represent- ative Thomas L.

Wood, Republican, of Indiana, In charge of the measure, that it contained a number of legisla- tive riders subject to points of order, T Charges Fvasion Attempt. The provision of the bill stricken out by Mr. Blanton's point of order is as follo Provided, that the act approved 24, 1925, shall be construed as authorizing the expenditure, with the specific approval of the Arlington Memorial Bridge Commission, of such portion as sald commission shall de- termine, of this or any other appro- priation’ heretofore or hereafter made ployment, on such terms as sald com- mission shall -decide, of expert con- sultants, engineers, architects, sculp- tors or artists, or firms, partnerships, or associations thereof, including the facllities, service, travel and other expenses of their respective organiza- tions so far as employed upon this project, in accordance with the usual customs of their several professions, without regard to the restrictions of law governing the employment, salaries or traveling expenses of regu- lar employes of the United States.” Mr. Blanton argued that this is an attempt on the part of the appropria tions committee to evade existing law. fr. Wood explained that: The purpose of this language obtain the services of the best archi- tects in the country at the least pos- sible expense to the Government. The architects of this country have an as- is to | which it would be unethical for them, | if regularly employed, to cut under. But because this is a memorlal bridge for the United States many have given their services to the Government and some services have been farmed out to others who are working at a nominal figure.” ys Plan Would Save Money. “It is an attempt to appropriate in such a manner as to save the Govern- ment money,” he emphasized. | “We can employ architecis at the regular prices. . And without this provision that will be done, but it will cost the Government many thousand dollars more. The commit- tee had the idea that if Congress would adopt our suggestions we will save money.” In arguing his point of order Mr. Black sald: |ZONING OF APPROACH | | Slaughterhouse and Other Indus- THE EVENING " S First American Officer to En- ter Berlin Is Wed in New York Hotel. Had Been Convalescing in‘ Capital—Couple to Live ; in Chicago. By the Associated Press, NEW YORK, January 12.—Maj. Gen. George Herbert Harries of Washing: ton and Chicago, and Mrs. Alice Love- land, Detroft, were married at the Waldort-Astorla Hotel yesterday. The was performed by Rev. Dr. . Tibbetts of Jersey City. . Harries was the first Amer- ican Army officer to enter Berlin after the armistice, going there as a mem- ber of an alled coimmission on post- armistice matters. The general left Emergency Hospital in Wash- | ington Monday, where he had been | convalescing. Mrs. Loveland was a war worker with the Aircraft Division at Dayton, Ohio, during the war. Gen. Harrles is 66 years old, and Mrs. Harries is 38. David B. Mulligan, manager of the hotel, was best man. Gen. and Mrs. Harries will live in Chicago. NO HINT OF MATRIMONY llI‘ZRE.‘ Well Kuown Through Long Residence in District, and War Record. Nothing seems to have been known here that Gen. Harries contemplated matrimony. He had been quite ill at the Emergency Hospital here for several weeks. Inquirers as to his condition last Sunday were told that he was planning to leave the hospital the following duy and proceed to New York. From that point his itinerary contemplated a trip by easy stages down the Atlantic Coast and through the Papama Canal, his destination being San Diego, Calif. Gen. Marrles is well remembered through his long residence here as a | former president of the Metropolitan | Street Railway Co., a former presi- dent of the Washington Board of Trade, and as commanding general of the District of Columbia Militia for many years. In the World War he went to France in command of an infantry brigade, but, because of his recognized executive and administra- | distinction of being the first American AR, WASHINGTON, 1 ).

While officials of the National Capi- tal Park and Planning Commission would regret to see the construction of an abattoir in the area in the vi- cinity of the Virginia approach to the Arlinigton National Bridge, now being erected, nevertheless it is believed that such industrial development may be expected until a zoning law is passed to govern this section of Ar- lington County. A preliminary permit to erect the slaughterhouse has been issued by the county revenue commissioner, but the formal sanction of the Board of Supervisors must be obtained before work may be started. The proposed site is on the Columbia pike, near the River road to Alexandria. The officlals pointed out that this “The Arlington . Memorlal Bridge act provides that such appropriations as may be made under the authority of this act for the execution of this work shall be chargeable to the Treasury of the United States and the revenues of the District of Co- lumbia in such manner as shall then be determined by Congress to be equitable. The present appropria- tion of $2,600,000 is all out of the Treasury of the United States, be- cause the act begins by stating that the following sums are appropriated out of any moneys in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated for the following purposes. | Aichigan, explained the intent of the | | repor | treasuries. | which has done so much to add to uiy ! should be a d “Now, the point I submit is this: It would be within the province, of Congress to decide that 80 per cent of the appropriation should bg appro- priated out of the general Treasury and 20 per cent out of the revenues of the District. Nobody could ques- tion our right of discretion. We would provide that 90 per cént should be paid out of the Treasury of the United States and 10 per cent out of revenues of the District. But I submit that the general law says that the money shall be appropriated out of the Treasury of the United States and the revenues of the Dis- trict of Columbia in such manner as the Congress may direct. “Now, the present appropriation en- tirely ignores the revenues of the Dis- trict of Columbia and makes no ap. propriation out of the revenues of the District whatever, and I submit that it is in violation of the act and that the appropriation as carried in the bill is unauthorized by law. “If the chair holds this appropria- tion in order, then it will be entirely possible to appropriate the entire $14,- 700,000 out of the general treasury and nothing out of the revenues of the District. Frankly, that is what 1 shall expect to see done, and I pro- test against it. Whatever is the Dis- triot's fair part its taxpayers should pay and not the general taxpayers of ihe United States.” Cramton Makes Reply. to this Representative Cramton, Republican of reply C. In Lo substantive law and the attitude of the appropriations committee as fol- i OV the legislation authorizing this bridge provided for some rather ex- tensive developments in Washington, including two extensive boulevards, one running from the bridge to the horth and the other to the east. As °d to the House and as passed the Senate the entire $14,000,000 was to be taken from the Federal Treasury. 1 was the author of the amendment which has been referred to providing for a division of the cost between the Federal and District It is one of the things popularity in the District. he theory of that amendment— and 1 think it is properly expressed in the language—was that there ion of the cost. The ! theory of the amendment was that | some parts of the program, perhaps, were of a pecullarly” Federal charac- | ter—the memorial bridge itself might | have been so considered—and parts of |it were peculiarly of a District char- acter. In my judgment those boule- vards should be bulilt entirely at Dis- trict expense. Personally I have no objection to the bridge being con- | structed exclusively at Federal ex- | pense as a Federal memorial project. “The thought in that language was that as these different items came before the House the House would determine whether it was an expense that should be exclusively borne by pense to be exclusively borne by the District Government, or an expense territory already has settled into an industrial zome, with brick, gas, oil, coal plaats and other factories already in operation. The slaughterhou would be particularly offensive, it is realized, because a favorable wind would waft the odors to Columbia Is- land Park and to the Highway Bridge and the Mount Vernon boulevard. It was also pointed out that of- ficials have consistently stated to the Arlington County Planning Commis- sion that one of the first things need- ed in the proposed program for devel- oping this section in conformity with the ‘plans ef the Capital City is a zon- ing ordinance, and until such becomes @ fact encroachments may be expected from industrial interests, and unless prompt action is taken it will be too late. The Lyon Village Citizens' Assoc! tion is to take the matter up at meeting tonight. D. C. BILLS TO SENATE. - its House Passes Several Measures Bearing on Local Affairs. Several local bills passed by the House last Saturday will be taken up by the Senate District committee at a meeting tomorrow afternoon. They include the measures authorizing $600,000 for a new Farmers’ Market and several bills placing limitations on the appointment of guardians for infants and mentally incompetent per-. | sons in the District. Prompt action on the Farmers’ Mar- | ket authorization is essential so that the money can be appropriated at this session. The existing Farmers’ Market must move within a few months to make way for one of the new Govern- ment hufldings south of Pennsylvania avenue. “HANDS DOWN’” HOLD-UP. Bandits Vary Custom to Avoid| Suspicion of Their Deed. Violating all rules of procedure in hold-ups, bandits created a precedent at the store of Louls Scribbante, 1217 First street, last night by ordering him to keep his hands down while | he was being robbed of $80 in cas and a check for a small amount. The two colored men staging the hold-up explained the variation from custom to their victim by stating they d1a not wish any one on the street to motice him with his hands in the air. Police are looking for them. | be completed and the $14,000,000 should be expended it would have been expended in such proportion as between the Federal and Distric Traesuries as Congress thought equit- able. Under that language this House has the right and authority to decide that this item shall be entirely at | Federal expense, this item entirely at ! District expense, and this item shall | be shared by them. | ‘There are portions of that program | which are peculiurly proper charges | against the District, such as those boulevards, while the memorial and monumental character of the bridge is peculiarly Federal. Under that con- struction of the language it is entirely within the authority of the House to determine tehse questions as they come before the House.
