CITIZEN LEADERS DEBATE ON BALLOT Federation Votes $25 to Aid; Movement Here for Na- tional Representation. ‘The Federation of Citizens' Associa- tons spent an hour of debate at iis | meeting last night over the respective | merits of national representation and Jocal suffrage for the District. 8o hot did the figh Freaecenor in office, James G. Yaden of Petworth. Dr. Havenner championed national | representation and Mr. Yaden took up | the cudgels for local suffrage. The as- rociation ultimately voted $25 to aid | ;lho work for national representation ore, It all started when William McK. Clayton, another former president of | the federation, and its delegate to the committee on national representation, asked for an appropriation of $25 lorq the committee’s work in connection with the inauguration program. The motion was opposed by A. H. Gregory, the fed- | eration’s treasurer, and others, and was lost, 18 to 24. Mr. Clayton then asked to be permitted to donate $25 in the name of the federation. Louis Gelb- | man, Congress Heights, objected, and | there was a chorus of “Nos.” E. S.| Hege, Chevy Chase, said this would‘ leave an unfortunate impression, and moved that the federation reiterate its stand in favor of national representa- tion. E. J. Brennan, Michigan Park, moved to add an indorsement of local suffrage. This amendment failed, 16 to 28, and a group of delegates, led by Mr. Yaden, irked at what they declared an affront to local suffrage, started a filibuster to prevent consideration of Mr. Hege's motion. Points of order, of no quorum, mo- tions to adjourn, and other bits of par- liamentary stratey were called into play, and so hot the battle become that the votes on two motions, which were recognized, were entirely lost in the shuffie. Dr. Havenner, angered at the course of events, installed Vice President B. A. Bowles in the chair and then criticized the filibusters as help- | ing to make the federation ‘“look ridiculous.” 4 “Twenty-five dollars will not break this federation,” he shouted. “Many of us love the cause of citizenship so well that if there isn't money in the treas- ury to meet it we will put it there. I stand ready to put as much as any other delegate.” ‘When Yaden rose to reply he re- minded the federation that his asso- ciation had donated $100 to the n tional representation work and said that he could speak free from the ac- cusation that he was opposed to it. “But I do not intend to stand here and see local suffrage crucified” he cried. “It is beyond my comprehension how any man can stand here and vote for one while opposing the other. If there i8 anything a man should have the right to vote for it is those who govern him directly. This is funda- mental. The other can come later. propose to stay here all night, it nec- essary, and do anything necessary to prevent adopted.” As nearly an hour had already been taken up in the sparring, several dele- ~ates made an attem) t compromise. A motion offered by Capt. B. B. Bierer, Richmond Park, to reconsider the ma ter finally prevailed. It quickly Iollowed by the adoption of & motion by J_B. Hopkins, Chillum Heigh's, to re- FMrm the federation’s stand on local suffrage and appropriate the $25 for th~ nationial representation work. Th» federation opposed erection of n hospital on a 6-acre tract in the ter- ritory of the Conduit Road Association » Palisades of the Potomac River, in a ssction now roned for residential purposes. The hospital is praposed to be erected, according to William A. Rob- erts, Conduit road, by the Children’s Country Home at a cost of $160,000. Mrs. May D. Lightfoot, a delegate to the federation and member of the board of governors of the home, said she had not heard of the project to build the hospital. She said the plan was to have poor children take a two-week outing there with their mothers. An effort to secure nomination by the federation of candidates for the post of public utilities commissioner, made by a committee sponsored by the Wash- ington Consumers’ Guild, failed. A representative of the committee at- tempted to get the floor to explain the project, but several delegates objected. The federation passed a resolution favoring the retention of Capt. Herbert C. Whitehurst as an official of the Dis- trict, appointed Hugh M. Frampton, Cathedral Heights, recording secretary, and named a committee, headed b Walter I. Swanton of the American sociation of Engineers, to draw a map of the boundaries of the various associations.
