ter are not perfect, by any means,
but they are apparently the best

Comment has been caused by the
fact that Senator Ball, chairman of
the Senate District Committee, ap-
pointed two Democrats to the subj
committee and one Republican, re-
versing the usual order Of things.
So far as can be ascertained, Senator
Ball selected the three members of
the Senate District Committee who
were assumed to be entirely detached
and independent of District political
alignments.
Senator Edwards has been in
Washington only since last Deem
Der, and Senator Weller, although
he has been a member of the Dis
trict Committee for two years, has
taken virtually no part in its pro-
ceedings. Senator King, however,

The general expectation in the
Senate is that the subcommittee will
make a report to the full District
Committee next Wednesday and that
1t will make recommendation that
no hearings be held. In this case
1t was probable that confirmation Of
the nominations will be made by the
