The sev- enth member would be chosen by the six s=o appointed. The amendment recomniended by the counc’l provides that this seventh member shall not be connected in any capacity with either the Federal or District governments | nor a resident or taxpayer of the Dis- trict, “but who shall be possessed of special qualifications in the assem- bling and interpreting of data nece: sary for the work of the commission.” | Annual Formula Pl-nned.

The council also objected to the bill because it fails to authorize an appro- priation for any personnel for the committee or for the necessary contin- gent expenses, and because it author- izes the committee to collect informa- tion regarding the powers, duties, ac- tivities, organization and methods of business of all administrative services of the municipal government. The latter objection was raised because the council said it is at a loss to under- stand what bearing the duties and methods of business of the adminis- trative services of the District gov- ernment would have upon any study of the fiscal relations betweeén the Fed- YEAR’S FAVORS Noise Makers, Hats, Etc.
