Island representatives asked the Sen- ate Finance Committee today to strike from the House-approved sugar quotas bill the limitations on refined imports from Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The restrictions are opposed by Pres- ident Roosevelt, who has said he would veto a bill containing them. Delegate Sam King of Hawali told the Senate committee the restrictions would perpetrate a “discrimination” against the Pacific Island Territory. He asserted Hawaii was as much a part of the United States as any of | the States, and cortended the refining restrictions were put in the 1934 Jones- Costigan marketing quota act, which the new legislation would replace, as an emergency measure. “If this principle i establithed it will be used as a precedent for other | discriminations,” he added. No Reduction Anticipated. In response to a question from Chairman Harrison, King said the limitation would mean no reduction of Hawaii's refined sugar output of ap- e held ) a.m_ Rela- Interment s on Monday tives and fri Court House Cem, Firfax.

Kennedy declared all executive functions relating to the municipal government should be concentrated in the Commissioners as a board. “None of such functions should be in separate Federal departments or | bureaus,” he said. “Control over parks and streets should be removed from the Interior and Treasury de- partments, except that the great na- tional parks. easily described by boundaries (Rock Creek Park and the Zoo, for example), should remain in the National Park Service and should be in the budget of that service Executive Branch's Activities. “The executive branch of modern municipal government has many pure- ly administrative functions. It also has many quasi-legisiative functions, such as the preparation and promul- gation of regulations pertaining to aafety, health, etc. In the District these latter functions are of special importance because of the obvious difficulties incident to the considera- tion by Congress of minor bilis of purely’ local nature. “The Commissioners should have a wider ordinance-making power. This is a matter of genuine importance. It is suggestied. therefore. that the dele- gation of quasi-legislative powers by the Commissioners be as broad as con- stitutionally possible. It should be spelled out 3 as much detail as is practical in a general act conferring powers upon the Commissioners and the various boards. The executive branch also has many quasi-judicial functions, the most notable being the hearing and decisions of complaints, revocation of licenses, etc.” Kennedy explained the Commis- sioners should be given final power over all purely administrative func- tions of the District government, and At the same time. shomld be entirely free from any routine administrative detail. The Commissioners, he declared, “should be free for supervisory func- tions, constant investigations and in- | spections, regular consultations and conference with the congressional committees having legislative powers over the District, and for the careful consideration of policies in all phases of the District government.” Proposed Department's Duties. ‘The duties of the proposed eight departments, as outlined by Kennedy, follow: 1. The Department of Finance would have the following divisions: Budget. accounts and audit, purchases and supplies, tax assessment, tax col- lection and pensions. 2. Safety—This department would have the following divisions: Police, fire, traffic, auto inspection. 3. Welfare—This department would have the following divisions: Public assistance, unemployment compensa- tion, adult penal institutions, juvenile training schools and parole. In addi- tion this department, according to Kennedy, should have a citizens’ board of parole. 4. Works and engineering inspec- tion—This department would have the following divisions: Highways, sewers, water, parks and trees, zoning, archi- tecture, surveying and inspection. 5. Education —This department would have the following divisions: Schools, libraries and recreation. 6. Health—This department would have the following divisions: Hos- pitals, contagious and infectious dis- eases, clinical service, garbage and rubbish removal and health inspec- tion. 7. Licenses—This department would have the following divisions: Profes- sions and vocations, businesses, mar- kets, weights and measures, insurance, boxing and wrestling and alcoholic beverages. 8. Personnel —This department would have the following divisions: Appointment, classification and com- pensation records and ratings, reas- signments, retirement and workmen's compensation. Kennedy drafted his reorganization plan after four, months’ study of the present municipal set-up. He said he submitted his proposals “not with any idea that they are a cure-all method, but simply as a basis for the enact- ment of such laws as will carry out the general idea to give the District 8 more efficlent government and to the citizens of the District as much eontrol over their purely local affairs as possible.” D. C, BATURDAY, 3 REORGANIZATION MEASURES DEAD Accounting Office Bill Seen Doomed Even if It Gets Committee 0. K. BY WILL P. KENNEDY. The House Reorganization Commit- tee has reconciled itself to the fact that the three other reorganization bills, making up the President's pro- gram, are dead for this session—just a8 the omnibus bill is dead in the Senate. There {8 a bare chance an effort will be made to bring out the bill affecting the General Accounting Office, but as no action would be taken on it in the Senate there is little chance it will get consideration in the rush to adjourn. If the Accounting Office bill is re- ported out, it can confidently be pre- dicted that it will not disturb the office of the controller general as an agent of Congress or upset the Gen- eral Accounting Office. A bill is being shaped in an effort to correct some of the recognized shortcomings of the present establishment and smooth away some of the friction. But the office will be preserved, independent of any Government department. It will not be placed under the Treasury and the principle of pre-audit author- ity will be preserved. In fact, members of the House Re- organization Committee have told the President firmly Congress will not per- mit its control over expenditure of the appropriations made by Congress to be relaxed, based on strict auditing. But the chances are strong that even such a bill will not be brought before the House this session. The two other bills—the one in charge of Representative Mead of New York, which proposes to abolish the Civil Service Commission and set up & single administrator with an ad- visory board, and the one in charge of Representative Warren of North Carolina to give the President broad powers to co-ordinate, redistribute, consolidate, eliminate, abolish or re- group Government agencies—have been definitely shelved for this session. Chairman Cochran has been ex- tremely secretive about this decision and has warned members of the com- mittee not to disclose the situation, but that is the position the committee has taken—no more reorganization measures this session, because they are highly controversial and because even if the House acted upon them the Sen- ate would not. SCHOONER SINKS: CREW IS RESCUED Canadian Vessel Goes Down Be- tween Hudsons Bay and Alaska. BERNARD HARBOR, Northwest Territories, August 7 (Ownadian Press).—The Royal Canadian Mount- ed Police schooner St. Roch stag- gered toward Coronation Guif in s flerce northwest gale today after res- suing the crew of the foundered Hud- sons Bay schooner Fort James. Crushed in grinding masses of ice, the Fort James sank Thursday 3 miles north of Chantrey Island, off the northern corner of Canada’s main- land, halfway between Hudsons Bay and Alaska Fighting their way through a bitter wind in freezing temperatures, the Mounties of the 8t. Roch pulled the six men of the freighter's comple- ment from tumbling ice and frigid seas. Peril had not abated, however, either for the rescued or the res- cuers. Ice conditions off this Arctic harbor are worse than in years. Piled up by a pursuing gale out of the Far Arctic, great masses of ice were wrenching at the steel of the Moun- ties’ vessel. The wireless operator’ of the St. Roch kept an all-night vigil, re- porting conditions to Arctic wireless stations.

Late yesterday he stood rigidly at attentbon, his right arm held aloft in accordance with court regulations, and heard ‘s youthful jury foreman pro- nounce him guilty of having attacked 13-year-old Ruth McGowan.

But for those who forgot or attacked those teach- ings, he said, he gould foresee only disaster.
