was defeated
The resolution favoring appointment
by the Commissioners was presented
by Snowden Ashford. chairman of the
committee on education. He ac-
eompanied the resolution with a
lengthy report containing arguments
in support of the change.
Many OF the delegates who voted
against election of the school board
by the people of the District explained
that they were supporters of suffrage
for Washington, but felt that to ap-
ply 1t to the school board first was not
the proper way to get the vote.
In his report Mr.. Ashford discussed
the proposal frequently made that the
school board as well as the board OF
Commissioners be named by the
President of the United States. He
ground that the chief executive
should not be burdened with such
appointments when nearly all Of his
time Is taken up with national and
International problems.
On motion of William B. Todd, the
delegates approved the plan to extend
New Hampshire avenue from Ken
nedy street to the District line, with
the suggestion that funds to begin
the Improvement be sought in the
next estimates of the Commissioners.
Several resolutions by William Mex.

committee. were approved, including
the following:
