DAVEY DEFENDS
HIS RECORD

Irked by attacks made upon him
because OF his recent criticism of
Government employees, Representa-
tive Martin L. Davey Of Ohio today
defended himself in a speech from
the floor OF the House.
In his speech he renewed his at.
tack on the Government service, de-
cIaring that there are none who
have arisen to defend or explain the
terrific waste in the Government
and the appalling lack of efficient
service
He replies to charges that he has
neglected Government business in
the following statement:
II have been member of Con-
gress for something over five years
and have never made any claim OF
answering all the roll calls. the
vast majority OF which are merely
calls to hear some one make a POI
litical speech of no consequence to
Congress or to the country. / am
inclined to- think that a member of
Congress who answers all roll calls
faithfully will have little time left
to get important things done for his
district.
"I do lay claim very positively to
having given my district a most
unusual type and quantity Of
service. I do not believe that there
is another district in the country
that has had better service and /
doubt If there are many thai
equal it.
Representative Davey told the
House that in five years he has
given service to more than $4,000
constituents He said he had been
compelled to spend $500 to $500 a
month of his private income to
handle Congressional work exclusive
OF campaign expenses.
He declares that all the attacks
made upon his own record would
not justify the enormous and
inexcusable waste in the Govern.
ment.'

14TH St Plans
OPPOSED
Photo ~ Internatlon ]

Opposition to provision IN the
bill to extend Fourteenth Street
Northwest, through the walter
Reed Hospital grounds was voiced
today by the District Commission
ers, in q report to Congress.
The Commissioners protested
against the District being forced
to pay for relocation OF Aspen
Street. along the southern boundary
Of the Hospital grounds. They ex-
planned that the District already
owned the necessary land for the
street. Hospital officials are at
tempting to move the street south
of the present location SO as to
keep traffic away from hospital
buildings.
The bin provides that the expense
shall be paid by the District. The
commissioners believe that the Fed
eral Government should pay for the
relocation.
The Commissioners have prev
iously recommended the extension
OF Fourteenth Street.

RESCUES
PARK PLAN

Passage of the bill, just intro

OF the House District Committee,
providing that construction of the

location is found, will clear up an

The last session of Congress ap-
propriated $780, 900 for construction

that the Commission Of Fine Arts
should be consulted as to location
Of the beaches. The Fine Arts Com
mission has led the opposition to
the present location Of the tourist
camp and Immediately made it
known that 1t would recommend the
tourist camp site for the bathing

Major U. s. Grant. Sd, director
of public buildings and parks, was
in a quandary. He hesitated TO go
ahead with construction of the per-
manent tourist camp building. and
thus permanently locate the camp
in its present site, and yet the
appropriation specifically stated the
camp should be located where it
now is.
