D. A R. Meanwhile the Daughters of the American Revolution went on record to- day against the Treadway proposal in ® resolution which instructed all State regents to oppose passage of the measure. Representative Smith quoted from the association's charter to show that the ownership of Mount Vernon by the association cannot be alienated with- out approval by the General Assembly of the State of Virginia. He called the Treadway bill a “futile” gesture He also opposed an amendment offered by Representative Leaviit, Republican, of Montana, to have the Interior De- partment negotiate with the State of Virginia. The Massachusetts member, in urging the cormittee to act favorably on his measure, sald: “The American people desire that Mount Vernon be turned over to the Federal Government.” He severely criticized the charging of a 25-cent fee to all visitors at this great national shrine and the fact that it is closed on Sundays.
