KING WILL
SPONSOR
NOVEL
BILL
Utah Senator FaVors Radical
Changes-PIan for New
Utilities Board.

Two important moves are to be
made in the Senate next week
with reference to District of Co.
lumbia affairs.
Senator King of Utah will in
troduce a bill providing a mayor,
or governor of Washington, and
$4,000 a year, and with three
departments under him similar to
the separate jurisdiction of the
three commissioners.
To Enlarge Commission.
Senator Ball. chairman Of the
Senate District Committee, will in.
troduce bill of entirely different
character-one providing a public
utilities commission Of five mem
bers, one of them to be a lawyer
and one to be an engineer. The
present incumbent members will be
retained.
Senator Kings bill will be intro.
duced in connection with his present
fight for an improved administration
in the District of Columbia. The
details of his proposed measure
are not yet fixed. He wants cen
tralized authority, in mayor or
governor, but has not yet decided as
to the manner of his appointment.
There were no new Developments
! in the Senate today relating to the
I confirmation of the District Com
mlss1oners. Senator King reiterated
his determination to insist upon
open hearings if protests from citi-
| zens against the nominations were
received. Senator Ball remained
non-commital on this part, saying
that the whole matter would be
discussed at the next meeting of
the District Committee next week
Protests Received.
Representations from various
groups of local citizens in opposi
ton to the confirmation of the
Commissioners are beginning to
pour in upon Senators, several Of
whom are not members of the Dis.
trict Committee.
These Senator's, most Of whom
are not familiar with District at
fairs, are puzzled as to what course
to take, but most Of them are
simply referring the communica-
tons to the Senate District Com
mittee.
Only those protests. it was said,
which are based on more than
hearsay or rumor will be seriously
| considered at the meeting Wednes-
day.
