HOUSE TURNS DOWN
PARKS Amendment
Refuses to Concur in Plan to Pay
for Link on a $3.50
Basis.

BY a vote OF 105 to 90 the House
today refused 10 concur In the Senate
amendment to the bill authorizing
completion of purchase of land for a
connecting parkway between Rock
Creek and Potomac Park.
The House passed this bill. pro-
Viding that the entire 100000 neces-
Sary to complete the purchase come
from the surplus revenues of the Dis.
trict of Columbia. which would be
thereby depleted The Senate passed
the bill with the provision that the
land should be purchased on a $3.50
expenditure between the Federal and
District Governments
BY it's action today the House re-
fused to permit the Federal Govern
ment's participation IN paying the
cost for a national park project which
was originally authorized under the
$3.50 principle. This was empha sized
by Chairman Zihlman of the House
District committee. supported by Rep
resentative Underhill Of Massachu-
setts.
S1,300,0 900 Original Project.
Mr. Zihlman pointed out that the
original project called for an eXpen-
diture of 81 800, 900 which was con-
tributed half and half from the Fed
The land now wanted Is a continua-
ton of this project, the land TO be
acquired lying within the boundaries
defined when the project was started.
He emphasized, however. that the ef-
fort now is to saddle the entire cost
on the District.
He called attention that the Ma
tional Capital Parks Commission,
which was set up last year. Ia au-
thoriZed to go into Maryland and Nir-
ginia to acquire park property. and
described the entire proceeding as a
national state OF mind with regard
to authorization, but municipal
state Of mind in regard to payment.
Mr. Underhill charged Congress at
utude toward the District on park
programs as penurious. and he quoted
the many millions of dollars that Bos.
ton Cleveland, Chicago, Cincinnati
and other big cities have spent on
park projects.
Chairman Madden Of the House
appropriations committee, Repre-
sentative Cramton. Republican, OF
Michigan; Representative Gilbert
Democrat. Kentucky, and Representa-
tive Blanton, Democrat, Texas. op
posed concurrence in the Senate
amendment, arguing that the District
should be forced to pay the full
amount Mr.. Cramton said that al tho
time the project was authorized the
$3.50 fiscal plan was in operation, and
that this had since been changed so
that after the 50 900 600 lump sum 4,
paid. all other costs for the District
come entirely from District revenues
Mr. Blanton said that the measure
would never have come out of the Dis
trict committee except for the provi
sion that the cost would be entirel!
upon the District Mr. Zihlman denied
this, and said 1t was not in the nature
Of a compromise, and argued that |,
was only just for the Federal Govern
ment to continue to pay an equitable
portion of such expenses. n
