Senator King Preparing Bill to
Take Power From Public
Buifdings Uface.

All power and control over the fed
eral parks and grounds within the
District of Columbia would be taken
sway from the Office of public build
fnrs and grounds in the bill which
Senator King of Utah, member of the
District committee, is preparing he
expects to present it to the senate
probably today.
Senator King wants to centrallze
the control over the parks mere ana
place them entirely under the juris-
diction of the District Commissioners
Under the terms of his proposed
measure he would leave only the con-
troll of the public buildings OF the
CITY under the Office of public build
ings and grounds.
He said today he was not in favor
of enlarging the force of the United
States police, now under the office OF
public buildings and grounds, and
used to police the federal parks. 1t is
his idea to centralize the police sys-
tenn under the local Commissioners in
the belief that it will result in great
er efficiency and economy, and at the
same time he would shift the entire
control and supervision of the parks
from the public buildings and grounds
Office to the local Commissioners.
The proposed measure is being re-
written today, so that in addition to
placing the police force as the federal
Office under the local police system.
it will include the transfer of the
care and supervision of the parks to
the Commissioners,

WIRTH BREAKS SILENCE.
Admits Conducting Credit Plans in
English Financial Circles.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN. December S.-The govern
ment of Chancellor Wirth admitted
yesterday that ii was conducting
credit negotiations in English finan-
cial circles. Thus it has taken the
first step to dispose Of the conflicting
reports Of it's own activities and thos''
of Dr. Rathenau. the former minister
of reconstruction.
The admission of the government
has been received as an indication
that it is apprehensive of its ability
to raise the half billion of gold marks
due January Is for reparations with
out subjecting the already swollen
flood of currency to further imitation.
1t is reported that the government.
fearing confiscation Of the Reichs-
banks gold reserve in the event Of
Germany's failing to meet the January
payment, has given consideration to
the question Of offering the nations
gold fund as a pledge to English
fnanciers, preferring to see 1t in the
possession of England as security for
q loan rather than to be obliged TO
surrender it into the hands of the rep
aration commission as penalty for
defaulting.

Furthermore. says Gen. Beach. a
careful inspection of the statue
recently made by an expert from one
of the bronze works. showed that

permit water to enter the interior of
the statue, where it freezes in winter

SENATE VOTES TO AMEND
MEDICAL SOCIETY ACT
Bill Permits Association to Take
Title to New Building-School
Bill Passed Over.

Amendment of the act Of incorpora-
ton of the Medical Society of the Dis
trict Of Columbia was provided for in
a bill passed by the Senate yesterday.
The measure removes from the orig
inal act the provision for the licensing
of practitioners here. and removes the
limit of $4,000 on the property which
the organization may hold. This lat
ter provision will permit the associa-
ton to take title to it's new building
here.
The Senate also passed a bill chang
ing the phraseology of that part of
the District code relating to the in
corporation of religious societies
here The code as now written gives
boards of trustees certain powers, and
the amendment adds the words "or
directors" as many of the organiza-
tions have boards of directors instead
of boards of trustees.
