Favorable Report on Measure
Assured by House D. c.
Committee.

Favorable report will be made to
the House District committee Wed
nesday on the bill recommended by
the District Commissioners for the
creation of two artificial bathing
beaches in Washington on Govern
ment-owned land, at Il cost not to ex-
coed $345 900
This decision was reached unani-
mously by the subcommittee Eeadod
by Representative Gibson Of Vermont.
Two members of the committee, how
ever, reserved the right to offer an
amendment providing for the erection
of three bathing beaches. two for
white people and one for colored peo-
pie. instead of one beach for white
and one for cOlored, as provided in
the Commissioners bill. These mem
hers of the subcommittee are Repre-
sentatives C;asque of South Carolina
and Little of Kansas. If their amend
ment carries it will mean that the
limit of cost now placed at S3I5 900
will he increased under the authorize
ton clause in the bill.
Plans for each of the bathing
beaches have been submitted by the
District Commissioners and We're con
sidered by the subcommittee. The
pool for white hathers. according to
these plans. is about twice as large
as that for colored hatherS.

iected, the Commissioners could still

authority and assess the costs as

owners.
Under section 3 authority would

/ ments for installation and construc-

walks, curbs and paving OF roadways
and alleys. Mr.. Reid asked whether
this would mean different rates in
different sections of the city and
whether such rates would be deter.
mined by public hearings Mr.. Reid
also asked IL there ia any provision
in the District under which property
owners have the right to put in water
