PUT IN BETTER FORM
District Bill Nearer Views of
Commissioners.
ITEMS ARE ELIMINATED
Three Features of the House Meas.
ure Disapproved by the Local
Officials Are Adjusted.

Of the several items contained in the
District of Columbia appropriation bill as
passed by the House, which the District
Commissioners said were inconsistent, but
one remains in the bill as it passed the
Senate
This is the provision for the paving of
18th street between East Capitol and 3
streets, and A street between Massachu-
sets avenue and 14th street Massacau-
sets avenue, for which these streets are
feeders, is to go unimproved. The Com
missioners considered that Massachusetts
avenue should be improved first, as the
other travel ways are much smaller and
of less Importance.
The three principal features of the
House bill which the local officials char
acterized as ''absurdities," are the fol-
lowing:
An appropriation of $500 for the main
tenance of the fish wharf, with no pro-
vision for the employment of officials to
operate the wharf.
Failure to rectify a mathematical error
, which would cause the District to pay to
the United States $4,000 too much on &C
count of the Government Hospital for the
Insane charge.
Failure to confer upon the Commission
ers authority to condemn land along both
sides of the Anacostia river for improve
ments. Notwithstanding the bill carries
an appropriation of 100000 for such i'm
provements.
The Senate has adjusted these so-called
incongruities, and it is believed that the
measure finally to be adopted for the
needs of the local government for the next
fiscal year will be in line with the Sen
, ate S recommendations along this line.
Provision for Fish Wharf.
| With respect to the fish wharf along
Water street, the Senate bill provides an
appropriation of $1,000 fer the employ
| ment of two officials to operate the wharf
as a municipal fish market. A similar
| provision was contained in the House bill,
as reported by the House appropriations
| subcommittee, but a point of order was
employed to eliminate 1t.
Through an error in division, the Dis
| trict was charged $769, $1,000 for certain
| INDECENT patients maintained at the Gov
eminent Hospital for the Insane, when
| the charge should have been Sis, 536 o.
| The Commissioners made provision In
their estimates to have the mistake rec
| titled but point of order was raised
| and the provision excluded in the House
| The Senate has adjusted this inequity.
| For two years Congress has peen ap-
/ proprating for the Improvement of the
Anacostia flats and il the present item
remains in the act the total fund for
this purpose will be 100000. Yet au-
| thority has never been conferred upon
the Commi ssioners to condemn land along
| the Anacostia for the purpose Of making
| improvements. The Senate bill bestows
such authority.
