tions and has kept his committee
working at concert pitch. He has
been the type of legislator who ac-
.complishes things and Washington
will lose a staunch friend with his
departure from the Senate.
Representative Frederick Zihlman
of Maryland has been acting chair
man of the House District committee
in the regrettable absence due to i'll
ness, of Chairman Stuart F. Reed of
West Virginia Living so close to
Washington Mr.. Zihlman has been
the nearest thing to a representa-
tive in Congress that the ''voteless
District" has ever had. He is fami-
liar with District needs and has been
most active in guiding local bills
successfully through the House
Besides the mass of important legisla-
ton enacted by the Sixty-eighth Con-
gress most important step forward has
been taken in the creation of better feel
ing between Congress, its committees
and the citizens of the District
1t has been stated by both members of
Congress and citizens of the District
that never before have such cordial re-
iations existed. This feeling has been
intensified. it is said, because of the
mutual recognition of the needs of
Washington, and qualification at the sue
cess of efforts made to provide a pro-
gram of legislation which would keen
pace with the Capitals growth and rapid
strides to a commanding place among
the capitals of the world
Seek Closer Harmony.
There Is now movement on foot to
Increase the harmony and co-opera-
ton between Congress and Washing
ton. Members of the House are ex-
pected to constitute themselves a
committee to stay in the District
during the coming recess to study its
needs, and to recommend, at the next
session, change in the organic act
to make it possible for many matters
of minor Importance now cloggfng the
machinery on Capitol Hill to be acted
upon by the Commissioners.
With these additional powers con-
ferred uuon the Commissioners and
the next Congress functioning in to
match the record of the last, it has
been said that Washingtonians can
face the future with confidence that
the National Capital will soon take its
appointed place as the leader Of cities.
