R. v. BLAIR MAY HEAD
INTERNAL REVENUE
Virginia Republican Was Formerly
in Bureau, But Resigned in
Order to Enter Army.

The selection of Maj. Robert w.
Blair of Virginia to be commissioner
of internal revenue is regarded as
highly probable, although the Presi-
dent has not yet indicated his choice.
He has the backing Of many members
of Congress. including Representative
c. Bascom Slemp of Virginia and Sen
ators Townsend of Michigan and
Poindexter of Washington.
Maj Blair was formerly in the in
ternal revenue service as internal
revenue agent on accounts. In 1918
he resigned in order to enter the
Army. Commissioner Roper at that
time, in accepting his resignation
expressed regret that the service was
losing Maj. Blair.
Maj Blair is forty-six years old. He
| is a graduate of the University of Vir-
ginia and a member of the bar. He is
, "a republican and the son of Frank S
Blair. formerly attorney general OF
Virginia.
; He became deputy collector of in
! ternal revenue of the sixth Virginia
district in 1904. and was advanced
rapidly during his service of fourteen
years In 1907 he became revenue
agent on accounts. and in 1914 he
was in charge of the income tax COL
leetions in the state of Ohio. The fol-
lowing year he was in charge of the
St Paul division. including North and
South Dakota. Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin. Later he did special work for the
commissioner Of internal revenue in
New York and Chicago.

conduit that is obsolete and over

In his report Col Tyler said:
additional facilities for supplying
water to the District Of Columbia are
an imperative necessity as insurance
against interruption of service. The
quantity of water now carried by the
existing supply system is SO large
that proper maintenance work on
conduits and tunnel cannot be done
until a new supply line is put in op-

ferred it should be with full knowl-
edge of the risk involved

OF the Army; the board Of engineers
for rivers and harbors, the Federal
Power Commission and former Sec
retary of War Baker issued state

Danger of complete interruption of

questioned the propriety Of authoriz-
ing the Tyler plan in the form of a
rider to the Army bill. and il is an

at the special session. However. in
view of the renewed warning of the
