THE . EVYENING .STAR, WASHINGT : ‘ MARCH 4, 1929. SENATE MAY PUSH PLAZA BILL ACTION Many District Measures ’ Seem Doomed to Be Lost During Finale. 1 A final effort will be made in the Sel ate today to put through the Key Elliott bill for enlargement of the Cap- itol grounds and development of the Plaza between the Capitol and Union Station, but a number of other District measures still cn the Senate calendar are likel; be lost in the few remain- * ing hours of the Scventieth Congress. The Plaza improvement measure, which is one of the important features ot the general program for the beauti- s |N A TEST OF THE LEADING CIGARETTE BRANDS tangle developed over other legislation, ending in a decision reach about 10:30 o'clock to recess until 11:10 o'clock this morning. Senator Keyes, Republican, of New Hampshire is still hopeful of obtaining a vote upon the Plaza bill, but there appears to be little, if any, chance for the other local bills that have not yet been acted upon. Legislation for extension of the pub« lic library facilities to all parts of the District as provided for in the organic law, where now only about one-! 5 of the people get this important edu- cational service, has passed the House 2nd still may be acted upon in the Sen- ste, if the calendar is called again. measure provides for a $2,000,000 rogram, the principal feature of which is that when new school build- ings are erected a special wing, with scparate entrance for a branch ll\'lrari\; would be included. It was favorably reported by Chairman Capper of the Senate District committee a few days 8g0. Merger Sidetracked. The steering committee had listed the i street railway merger resolution as the next order of business, but this ure is now regarded as being vir sidetracked until the new Congress. The Cramton bill, under which 000,000 would have been advanced | the District by the Federal Gow i ment for immediate acquisition of prosj posed park areas within the Distriet, to be repaid at the rate of $1.000.000 8 year without interest, passed the House a few days ago by unonimous consent. Members of the Senate Dis- trict committee, however, felt that so jmportant a measure could hardly be handled in the Senate during the last few days of the session, and it was not reported out. In addition to the advance for park development in the District, the bill provided also a fund of $7,000,000 for purchase of parkway lands in Maryland and Virginia, parts of which.would be on a 50-50 basis for building palisade drives on both sides of the river to Great Falls, and the ex- tensions of Rock Creek parkway and Anacostia parkwi ind would be at a cost of two-thirds to the State or political subdivision, and one-third to the Federal Government. Other District Measures. Other local measures which have passed the House, but are still pend- ing on the Senate calendar, with their chances for enactment growing less as the hour of adjournment approaches, are: The bill to provide free text books in the junior and senior high schools. - T B Make the test | (Polw‘ewbepirunent and to define its a e e e s y O u l' S e functions. - CUT OUT THESE CIGARETTE "MASKS* TO CONCEAL THE BRAND NAMES ‘The measure to regulate the height X and exterior design of private buildings %.E?E?m?omcfifigfrfi%fig&; and Z'Ai the request of the P.
