ADVISORY COUNL QUARREL RENEWED Election of Six by Federation Revives Representation Issue. The old quarrel between the north- west and other sections of the city over representation on the Citizens' Advisory Council will play an important part in | the election of six council members by the Federation of Citizens' Associations April 6, according to indications today. News has leaked out of a caucus at- tended by delegates to the federation from the eastern section of the city, in an effort to increase the eastern repre- sentation. At the caucus it was decided that the eastern section would throw its 26 votes to the four eastern candidates, F. Tracy Campbell of Anacostia, John S. Driggers of Kenilworth, Dr. Edward E. Richardson of Congress Helghts and Andrew F. Scheer of Brookland. It is understood that after the re- fults of the first ballot are announced, the two easterners having the lowest vote will withdraw and the eastern dele- raiion will concentrate its strength on the other two. If they succged in elect- ing two, that will give the eastern sec- tion of the ecity three members on the council, as the chairman, Dr. George C. | Havenner, who holds his position by virtue of his presidency of the feder- ation, hails from Anacostia. Mr. Scheer is expected to go over on the first ballot and the second member will probably be Dr. E. E. Richardson. The Northwest is expected to elect Charles I. Stengle of Petworth, Alfred P. Thom of Devonsire Downs and Hugh M. Frampton of Cathedral Heights. George S. Fraser of South Washington, :henlone’cnndldate from the Southwest ection, is expected to go over o first ballot. 2 S There are 14 candidates for the six places on the council. All members of the council are candidates for re-elec- tion except George R. Wales and Joseph L. Gammell. Two colored members of the council will be elected at a meeting of the Fed- eration of Civic Associations April 5. Dr. Havenner will continue as chairman until the next federation elections, in November. Berlin Hears American Music.
