Henry B. F. Mcfarland. chairman OF
the Joint Citizens Committee on Fiscal
Relations between the United states and
the District finds in the action OF the
House Committee on Appropriations as
represented In the District appropriation
bill a confirmation OF what advocates OF
the maintenance of the half-and-half
plan contendcd would occur should that
system Of financing the District be abol-
ished.
Mr.. Macfariand. in public statement.
charges the House Appropriations Com
mittee has disregarded the organic act
which II stili in effect, and points to the
fact that In drafting the District APP
priation bill the committee has failed
to follow the recommendations OF the
Joint Select Committee Of Congress that
conducted the investigation OF the fiscal
relations OF the Federal and District
governments.
Shows What Would Happen.
Mr.. Macfarland>s statement reads:
1.-THE report strikingly shows what
would happen to the National Capital
II the hslf-and-hslf plan should be
abolished. II. justifies our predictions
by the House Committee on Appropri-
atiohs. 1t shows how sadly mistaken
were those in Congress and in Wash
ington who advocated the repeal OF
the half-and-half plan In order that
the contribution from the national
Treasury might be more than one-half
of the appropriations.
I'VE told them that they were drop
ping the substance for the shadow,
like the dog In the fable.
The House Appropriations Commit.
tee disregarded the organic act OF
1878. which Is still the law, not hav-
ing been repealed. and has undertaken

Base Claims On Old Entries.
These claims were based on entries in
dicathng that Ripley intended to assign

jected was based on q similar entry.
Tho appraiser disallowed the ciairis of
the charitable institutions on legal
grounds. but did not pass On Miss
Kitching's claim. inasfnuch rs lawyers
and administrator had agreed that she
was entitled to the entire estate, wheth-
err she wanted II or not.
The reappraisal Is order for tho nur-
pose OF fixing the transfer tax In case
