BEGINS TOMORROW
ON FISCAL REPORT
Failure of Joint Committee
to Meet Today Is Due to Mis-
understanding.

The joint select committee of Con-
gress investigating the fiscal relations
between the United States and the Dis
trict of Columbia, will meet tomorrow
morning at II O'Clock to begin work on
its report.
Four of the members of the commit
tee got together this morning, a mis-
understanding having arisen in re-
gard to meeting today. Those pres
ent were Senators Salisbury and
Works and Representatives Gard and
Cooper. Senator Salisbury explained
that the last meeting of the committee
had been adjourned subject to the call
of the chairman, Senator Chiffon of
West Virginia
Senator Works said that 1t had been
his understanding that when the meet
ing set for last Tuesday was postponed
the committee would meet at 10 o'clock
today. In this he was supported by
Representative Gard.
Senator Chiffon. chairman of the COM :
mittee, was in Washington, but his
understanding of the matter was
that the committee had adjourned to
an appearance at the committee room.
Members of the committee attending
the informal meeting today expressed a
keen desire to get to work on the COM
mittee report so as to have it ready
for presenta tion to Congress as soon as
possible after that body meets.
Senator Chiffon later issued a call
for the committee to meet tomorrow
morning. The fact that the democratic
caucus of the Senate is meeting this
week, and the House ways and means
committee is busy also, will make it
difficult to get much work done this
week, it is feared

close secret until the democratic
caucus Saturday.
This is because of the great pressure
on him and other members of the com
mittee to get choice plums made va
cant by failures of many democrats to
return to the House.
1t is certain. however, that the demo-
Gratis will maintain a heavy majority
on the important House committees,
and will not allow the republicans to
have enough members to be able to
hold the balance of power in case of
defections in the democratic ranks.
1t has been rumored that the repub-
licans want an eleven to thirteen pro-
portion of membership on all committees.
but democrats on the ways and means
committee today said that whatever party
questions are likely to split committees.
the democrats would have to be placed
in complete control. This applies to the
