G|LLETT IS BACKING
LAWS FOR CAPITAL
Urges House Leaders to Ex-
pedite Needed Legislation;
Aided by LongWorth.

Speaker Gillett has placed his in
fiuence strongly behind the effort to
get prompt action by Congress on a
program Of constructive legislation
for the National Capital.
He Is comforting with leaders in
the House regarding the desirability
of expediting the passage of nom
controversial measures that will
greatly improve conditions in Wash
ington, and advising that the Dis
trict should not have its regular
days taken away except for the big
appropriation bills or other essen
tial Legislation.
Let Stand BE Known.
Speaker Gillett and House Leader
Longworth are letting the republican
steering committee and other leaders
in the House know that they are per-
ing that the National Capital gets
even more than "a square DEAL" and
that il should receive sympathet tic
care, since Congress has exclusive
jurisdiction.
This attitude of the republican
leaders, il Is believed, will go a long
way toward establishing Il better feel
ing between Congress and the resi-
dents of the District. The obstacles
and failure to cooperate that have
heretofore prevented or delayed the
passage of District measures now are
being removed
