A GREATER FEDERAL PAVNENTISASED Burroughs Citizens Seek Aid of Committee of 100. An improvement in fiscal relations between the United States and the District in which the Federal Govern- ment would hereafter pay a more equitable share of District expenses was asked by the Burroughs Citizens’ Association meeting last night in the John Burroughs School. ‘The action was incorporated in a resolution opposing the construction of an abattoir on Benning road north- east and praising the Committee of One Hundred of the American Plan- ning and Civic Association in its ef- forts to prevent the erection of the slaughter house. Cite Revenue Loss. ‘The resolution declared the citizens eould not “overlook the fact that the prevention of the establishment of in- dustries in the District * * * deprives the local government of a lucrative source of revenue in the form of ad- ditional taxes so sorely needed be- cause of the Federal Government’s failure to bear its full share in the cost of the local government.” The Committee of One Hundred was called upon to aid in the fight to seek in- creased appropriations from Congress for the annual District budgets. The establishment of a small claims eourt proposed by Municipal Court Judge Nathan Cayton was indorsed by members. They expressed the opin- fon that the maximum amount of the claims handled by the proposed court should be increased from $50 to $100. School Chosen as Center. Dr. A. F. Heath, chairman, Com- Mmunity Center Committee, reported success in obtaining use of the Bur- roughs School for community center activities. A program was announced for December 17 to open the center. Complaints that civic groups are not represented thoroughly at the federa- tion under its present set-up resulted in the adoption of a resolution urging | the federation to appoint a special committee to study this problem and | to plan for & more definite program in | i advance of each meeting. | A measure approving repeal of the | *red rider” was tabled after a discus- sion. Amendments to the constitution | adopted provided for a change in meeting night to the fourth Monday of each month at the Burroughs Bchool and for the election of a sec- ond vice president, the election of which will take place at the next meeting.
