Columbia Society Starts Drive.
Hopes to Secure Own
Quarter.

Recognizing that Washington is
accepted as the historical center of
the republic and is continually be-
ing brought into the foreground in
connection with educational move.
ments in all sections of the coun-
try, the Columbia Historical Society
has started a membership drive to
secure at least 1000 additional
members. There are approximately
400 active members of the society
at present.
Organized in 1894, the society has
maintained an unbroken existence,
gradually growing in local and ma.
tional Importance until today 1t is
accepted as one of the most i'm
portant organizations of a his
torical character in the United
States. It's members feel, however,
that while in a measure, it is dis
charging the important functions
necessarily devolving upon it be-
cause of it's location at the National
Capital, it can be made of still
greater benefit to the country If
provided with larger active mem
bership and suitable quarters.
Since it's organization 1t has never
maintained quarters of it's own ade'
quate to meet the demands Of the
organization.
Seeks Own Home.
One of the results of the mem
bership drive, 1t is said, will be to
secure and furnish such Quarters
where it will be possible to conduct
its monthly meetings and where the
ever-increasing number of guests
attending the lectures can be prop
erly accommodated.
THE Washington Historical So
ciety should have the largest pos
sible membership" said Frederick
l.. Fishback, curator, today. Its
importance not only to Washington
but to the country at large Is suf'
ficiently great to insure it a leading
position among such organizations.
I'VE have never conducted an
active membership drive before, at
least nothing approaching the
breadth of the one under way, and
with the scores OF persons in the
city who must be interested In the
history of the District as the center
of government, a large increase In
membership should result from the
efforts being made"
In one respect the society has ar
unusual record. Since it's organlza
ton in 1894 it has never failed tc
hold regular monthly meeting
between the months Of November
and May. Members Of the society
point to this unbroken record as
evidence Of the interest taken in
the society's activities since its or
ganization.

Senate Committee Members
Confident Women Will Not
Be EVicted.

The Government hotels : for

ment on the Union Station plaza

demolition, it developed today as
the result of hearing before the
Senate Public Buildings and
Grounds Committee.
Will Satisfy Claims.
With Robert Watson, president Of
the Housing Corporation, which has
the dormitories under its jurisdic
ton, before the committee as a wit
ness, Senator Fernald and his coll
leagues reiterated their conviction
that the women workers are not to
be evicted from the Government
hotels at this time.
Instructions were given to Wat.
son to take the question up with the
Baltimore and Ohio Railway imme-
diately and to ascertain what legal
steps were necessary to satisfy the
claims Of the railway against the
Government.
Watson, who is conUersaut with
all phases of the situation, will re-
port back to the committee within'
the next few days.
It is understood that the issue can
be met satisfactorily IT, the Federal
Government will agree to pay a mod.
crate rental for the use of the land.
Strong sentiment is developing in
the Senate to maintain the dormi-
tories for several years to come. It
10 recognized that they constitute a
valuable property and that even If
they should so deteriorate as to
make IL impracticable to maintain
them as dormitories they could be
used as storehouses for Government
property.
The Senate Public Buildings and
Grounds Committee will hold an
other meeting later in the week to
make recommendations as to its
policy in the matter.
Secretary Davis Interested.
Every effort of the Department
Of Labor will be made to MAINTAIN
the Government hotels and keep
the workers from being thrown
out of their homes April l."
Secretary of Labor Davis made
this declaration at the White House
today, and added that he expected
Congress will take some action to-
ward continuing the arrangement
with the Baltimore and Ohio Rail.

notice for the Government to va
cate three squares on which the
hotels are located.
A conference will be held at the

in an effort to devise some plan to
meet the demands Of the railroad
Present at the conference will be
Robert Watson and Assistant Sec
rotary Henning. who has handled
some of the negotiations with the
railroad for the department.
1t is the opinion of Secretary Da'
Wis that Congress should pay rental
for the property from November Il
1922, the date claimed by the rail
road that the Government should
have vacated under the wartime
agreement He also believes that
Congress should undertake an ar
rangement for the further rental
Of the property.

charge is allowed for transfers be.
tween buses and street cars. The
order provides there shall be no
additional charge for a second
transfer for a continuous ride.
The order authorizes the COM
pany to start the bus line as soon

tended, and can be readily extended

PASSAGE: IN
HOUSE IS
CERTAIN
VIEW
Committee Votes Unanimous.
Iy to Report Special Rule for
-
Action on Measure.
By r. HAROLD MAY.


Washington mothers won . sig
nal victory yesterday when the
House Rules Committee voted
unanimously to report a special
rule for the consideration of the
teachers salary bill at this session
of Congress.
With Congressman Fred N.
Zihlman of Maryland, member OF
the House District Committee, to
champion their cause, the per-
sistent fight waged the past few
weeks came to a successful con.
clusion.
Passage Of Bill Assured.
That thee House will pass the
measure when 1t is brought up il
practically assured. The measure
has passed the Senate. It is not
expected that the Senate conferees
will oppose the Zihlman amend
ments. The act should be signed by
the President before March 8.
Last week Chairman phil"
Campbell Of the Rules Committee,
who voted for the special rule yes
terday, Republican, Floor Leader
Frank W. Mondell and Chatham
Ben K. Focht of the House District
Committee passed the buck" one
to the other when the subject Of
the teachers salary bill was
preached. There was no way, they
said, for action to be taken on the
measure at this session of Congress.
Focht blamed Campbell and Mon
dell for having ignored an implied
''gentlemen's agreement" They &C
cused Focht of having wasted the
time allotted the District during
this session.
The mothers of Washington Ills
tened in" on the argument but re-
fused to give up hope.
What WAS accomplished yester-
day can be. repeated. Citizens of
the District, while evincing a pas
sive interest in the legislation af-
fecting local affairs. have not been
behind the important measures in
way to convince Congress that
they want action and mean BUSH
ness.
Interest Comes Too Late.
Had the same interest been
manifested all through this ses-
sion of Congress which has been
displayed the last few weeks,
