BY JESSE C. SUTER. OME urgent District legisla- tion may be able to get through because of the sud- den change in Senate pro- cedure brought about through the death of Senator Robinson. Among these are the proposal to permit temporary advances to the Dis- trict of Columbia from the United States Treasury and the omnibus revenue bill. Prior to the sudden ending of the prolonged legislative day of July 6 in the Senate, the completion of any District legisla- tion appeared practically hopeless. Monday was District day in the House, but only two bills were passed. One of these was H. R. 563, to define, regulate and license real estate brokers and real estate salesmen; to create a real estate commission in the District of Co- lumbia, to protect the public against fraud in real estate transac- tions, and for other purposes. The passage of this bill has been urged by the Washington Real Estate Board and other bodies for a num- ber of years, The other bill passed was H. R 7084, providing that all cabs for hire in the District of Columbia be compelled to carry insurance for the protection of the passengers and for other purposes. It was ed that in connection with the passage of this bill, a companion bill, H. R. 6 be passed to au- thorize and empower the Public Utilities Commission to limit the number of public vehicles to be censed and operated in the trict of Columbia. After rather extended cousid- eration the matter was disposed of by the House adopting a motion striking out the enacting clause of the bill. Monday was also notable in the House of Representatives through the filing there of a report of the Airport Commission. This report recommends the location of the Washington airpe at Camp Springs, Prince Georges County, Md., ‘about 10 miles from the cen- ter of the city. The action of the commission has reopened & di cussion of the entire airport qu tion, the outcome of which cannot be foreseen. Some disappointment has been expressed at the failure of the commission to gest a manner in which the airport shall be financed. It is reported that Senator Kin chairman of the commission and also chairman of the Senate Com mittee on the District of Columbia, is draftibg a bill to acquire tr site recommended, the project to be financed by the United States. It is said to be the idea of the Sen- ator that the services of this ail port will be mo: of a ional than of a local character and should therefore be financed by the Federal Government, The District Commissioners are reported to be busying themselves in an endeavor to obtain congr sional action on the revenue bill and the bill to permit tempora advances to the District of Colum- bia from the Federal Treasury. Commissioner Hazen during the week submitted to the Commi sioners’ Committee on Reorganiza- tion of the District Government a number of recommendations. Some of these have stirred up consid- erable civic discussion In this connection it is orted that the committee will be ready with its plans for reorganization in the near future. - Modern Adoption Law Approved by House Committee. JIVIC and welfare groups had “ their efforts for many years rewarded by the House District Commitice on Wednesday through ordering a favorable report on H. R. 6698. This bill, introduced 1n April last by Representative Mar 3 orton by request, to regu late proceedings in adoption in the District of Columbia. This favorable action of the committee was taken after a public hearing of about an hour and a half. A number of amendments recommended by & committee of the Bar Association were approved by the House committee The archaic adotion law of the District of Columbia has prese ed & serious problem for vears. The child welfare of the Board of Public Welfare and & number of civic and wel- fare organizations have been urg- ing this and kindred legislation. The progress has been very slow and discouraging, as is the case With much needed legislation which in other communities would re- ceive prompt and satisfactory at- tention. many division There are several other needed laws coming within the scope of child welfare. Among these 15 the pending juvenile court bill. This bill is generally approved by e clvic and welfare bodies of the District. Just why there should be any delay in its enactment into law is, in itself, a problem which has not been solved. Citizens supporting these bills are Very anxious that they may receive final legislative action and ap- Proval by the President before the adjournment of the present session of Congress. Hazen Proposes Changes In Administrative Machinery. ISSENT and approval is heard regarding Commission- er Hazen's recommendations for changes in the municipal admin- istrative machinery. The Com- missioner got off to a bad start by resurrecting the old thread- bare recommendation that the ap- pointment and control of the Board of Education be transferred t¢ the District Commissioners, While there are many in the civic groups who advocate the election of the Board of Education by a vote of the people, there are very few who favor the transfer of the appointment power from the judges to the Commissioners. Appointment of the recorder of deeds, absorption of the park po- lice by the metropolitan police force, removal of the District budget from the Federal Bureau of the Budget and the establish- ment of the entire water system as a municipally controlled public utility, it is believed, will receive general civic support. Other items in Hazen's recommendations, such as the centralization of authority V. in connection with the mainte- nance of the park roads and drain- age systems, the reorganization of the assessor’s office, division of the cost of the Zoological Park—are all expected to meet with organization approval, As to the proposed consolidation of various recreational activities there opens up & very interesting and debatable problem. Consoli- dation of these activities is con- sidered very desirable, but there is a great diversity of opinion as to the agency under which they shall be consolidated. Is it to be through the expansion of the municipal ground system under the Dis- trict. Commissione Is 1t to be through the municipal center de- partment of the school system? Or is this job to be farmed out to the Federal Government? There is no agreement as to these several lutions, with ma citi- zens strong partisans of persons who at present happen to head these several agencies. The Commisisoners’ Committee on Re-organization is expected to make a report at an early date. It b almost completed its factual survey of the District government and soon will start on its final re- port Among the civic leaders there has been some surprise expressed that the District Commissioners have not publicly included in their recommendations to the committee, the inclusion of a proposal favor- ing national representation for the Distri Colum The recent legislative experiences of the Com- missioners and the fact that a fermer Board of Commissioners went on record as formally ap- proving the granting to the Dis- trict of Columbia of voting repre- sentation in the Congress and the Electoral College would appear to afford & good and sufficient reason for such recommendation.

SO\"J HEAST WASHINGTON re- ™ gards 000 item in the Di appropriation bill re- pairs to the Pennsylvar Bridge as its hood “lemon citizens fami need at that spending of Ppairs as a waste of money. Though the bridge is old and somewhat decrepit, it can carry the limited traffic over its narrow road- way with perfec if the pres- ent weight limitations are observed. The real need. however, is for a bridge of sufficient width and strength to relieve the congestion of traffic and avoid the delay and inconvenience which is now the rule While it is true that by reason of the location of this bridge in the Southeast s 1. the “South- easters” have a special interest, all of Washington is interested in its replacement, for it is used by the people of all sections. And, as this much-needed structure is sure to be built before long, there is a gen- eral desire that it be a memorial to Washington's own John Philip Sousa.
