COOLIDGEVACATION INVERMENT:SEEN ‘Delegation Believes President May Visit Mountains for Summer Rest. The impressioni gained by a small delegation of Vermonters who called at {the White House today tq invite Presi- ‘dent Coolidge to make a tour of that| 1State to see what has been done in Tehabilitation as & resyit of the destruc- tlon caused by the floods last Fall was that he is seriously considering his |8 supercommittee to dictate to Con- mative section for his vacation this ‘Summer. These Vermonters went away from | the White House with the belief that the President will spend at least a por- tion of the coming Summer in New Bngland, if not all of it ° This was| Based on the assurance given by the | Ih€ aRpropr President that it is his Intention 1o | propriations bil to Vermont early in the Summer. E did not say, however, that his in- tention to go to his old home in that State was for the purpose of establish- ing the Summer Capital there or at ‘some other attractive spot in New “Bngland mountains. Nevertheless these | anews considered his statement as be- | sufficient to raise New England's lspes in this respect. In the group were Harry C. White- Rill, collector of customs-at St. Albans, Wt personally representing Gov. Weeks of Vermont in extending the invitation | ‘48 Mr. Coolidge to make a tour of the | flood section in that State: Senatars Dale and Green and Representatives “Gibson and Brigham The President was told by Mr. White- Mill that the splendid manner in which the people of Vermont have met the | situation growing out of the great losses esused by the foods was Such as to smmake him very proud of them. He geminded the President that the dam- bas cost the State more than $30.- :M and that the citizens as- well s the State and local governments have been under a heavy strain meet- Ing the losses.

Asks Fair Study. Chairman Beers udly stated his opinion that in fairness to the tax- g:yen of the District, an effort should made to ascertaln what is fair in fiscal relations and that the citizens should be represented in the commis- sion making the study. Mr. Simmons exvnned the convic- tion that the resolution does not call for finding facts which are already | available, but for ascertaining a per- | centage of fiscal relations, which could | and appropriations committees of the‘ House and Senate. “By no means ought we to create | gress what ought to be done,” Mr. Sim- | {mons said. | Representative Bowman of West Vir- | ginia, asked Mr. Stmmons if he thought | \ne determination should be left en- tirely to the a) fations committee, calling attention that the law now provides for a 60~40 proportion, while riations committee has legis- lump-sum policy into the np- “Why not have a study to de(ennlne Just whn is fair?” Mr. Bowman asked. Mr. Simmons argued that the matter | has to be studied each year on the basis of conditions that actually exist | and expressed the opinion that $9,000,~ | 000 is now more than the Federal Gov- ernment should , but that to reduce the amount might have had a deter- rent effect upon Capital development, and was allowed to stand because he believed Congress wants to be generous toward the District. He insisted that neither the legislative committee nor the appropristion committee have as- sumed the attitude of denying a hear- ing to any persons desiring to state| their views in regard to fiscal relations, | so that he sees no justification for the | appointment of a new . joint commis- sion. Raps Fixed Proportion. He expressed himself as vigorously op- posed to the principle of a fixed pro- portion, stating that if it is under- stood that the lump sum is the limit the Federal Government will pay, Dis- trict authorities will be more careful in asking for appropriations. Members of the committee asked Mr. Simmons if there was any better justi- fication for the lump sum than for the. fixed-appropriation policy. Mr. Sim- mons objected to the provision in the Zihiman resolution calling upon the commission to make its recommenda- tions on a percentage system. Mr. Stengle asked Mr. Simmons if he would accept the Zihlman resolution the committee would eliminate this pmvlflon and simply require the com- mission to facts and figures. Mr. Simmons re] “no, because that are unblued are now getting of the Budget Bumu, is now engaged on such a study. Stengle said that | FRIDAY and Toric Rea Glasses Regular $7.00 outfit. Complete DR.

He denied that any effort is being made “to take away any function or honor from Congress.” Willing to Get Data. Mr. Simmons said that he hopes he will not long be a member of ‘the Dis- trict subcommittee on appropriations and that if what s wanted is a study of ruu he is willing to call his subcom- together to make the study. It looked to him, he said, as though the Zihiman resolution expresses either a lack of confidence in the standing com- mittees that now handle District af- fairs or is an effort to take away by indirect method their jurisdiction over District fiscal affairs. He thought Con- gress ought not to be hampered in the exercise of its function by a recom- mendation from the proposed commis- Representative Cramton said he ap- peared at the hearing on the suggestion of Chairman Madden of the appro- priations committee, and thought it would have been fairer if the subject |y, of fiscal relations had been referred to the committee instead of this par- ticular measure. He pointed out that | for six years he has had a bill before the committee to make the lump sum permanent legislation, and that the House has repeatedly gone as far as it could in adopting the lump sum, but that the House committee had not al- lowed the bill to come out for a vote. “It is evident that the House wants the lump sum,” Mr. Cramton said, d told the subcommittee that the sum plan, of which he is sponsor, was born in a friendly feeling toward Wash- ington and opened the way for a great program of trict improvement during the last four or five years. House Wants Lump Sum. He gave as reasons why he is oppos- ing the Zihiman measure, first, that it is not in line with what the House mp- wants, because the House wants the lump-sum plan. Second, that as regards a commission to investigate, | the citizens' associations have abandon- ed the Zihlman bill.

Asked by Mr. Beers, “Do you object to & study—-?" Mr, Cramton replied, “I object to this bill. I do not object to any study of fiscal relations made by an individual or alz;:iunon and these facts coming gress after they have been developed.” Mr. Cramton expressed the opinion that a report of facts in regard to fis- cal relations is entirely unnecessary be- cause he belleves Congress now has more actual facts than any other or- ganization. He insisted that Congress ought not to be bound by the findings of such a commission. He chsncurlud the Zihiman measure as “an abdication of the powers of Congress because it would empower the proj d commission to tc amount of money to be spent out 1 States.” Commissioners Study Plan. In stating his opposition to District representation on the commission, Mr. Cramton said that the Commissioners have already devoted half of their time since they have been in office to pro- motion of the 80—40 lnlln the Treasury of the United would start their investigation in favor of a change in system. He declared himself opposed to a joint commission of the House and Senate reviewing the work of the joint commission on the accumulated surplus some years ago, declaring that in the conclusions ¢he Hause had been ignored by action when only one House Representative was present. “If you want an lnveullltlon. let it be by the House itself,” concluded Representative Cramton.
