D. c. BILLS COMING
/. UP ON WEDNESDAY
Park Purchase, Library and
14th Street Extension in
Senate Committee.

Three questions are slated for COM
sideration by the Senate District com.
mittee at its meeting Wednesday.
These are the bill 70 complete pur-
chase of the connecting link between
Rock Creek and Potomac Parks, re-
vision of the organic law of the
free Public Library and the bill to
extend Fourteenth street through
Walter Reed Hospital grounds.
The Senate subcommittee in charge
Of mothers aid legislation for the Dis
trict also is expected to decide thla
week which of the two pending BIS
it Will recommend.
Differences i'm Bills.
Senator Copeland of New York.
chairman of the subcommittee, stated
last night he would call the subcom-
mittee together during the coming
week to settle the question.
The local organizations and indi-
viduals who testified were practically
unanimous in supporting the Capper
bill, which would eventually place
administration of mothers allowances
under the proposed board OF public
welfare, and thus adhere TO the plan
of co-ordinating all welfare activities
under one agency.
The Wadsworth bill, supported by
New York social workers, would Gre
ate an independent board TO handle
mothers allowances. In view of ths
situation. the decision of the sub
committee Is being awaited with in
| terest by the welfare organizations OF
the District
Public Library Bill.
The Public Library bill, which ia
due 70 come up in the commit e
Wednesday, IS intended to change the
permanent law 30 as to provide
definitely for the proper development
and expansion Of the library service.
1t would create substantive law for
the establishment Of branch libraries
in various localities, for the establish
ment OF school branches and would
| authorize acceptance OF gifts for the
library service.
With regard u the extension OF
Fourteenth street the Walter Reed
Hospital authorities agreed recently
10 withdraw opposition to the bill,
provided no street cars. buses or
heavy trucks are routed through the
reservation, and provided the fixing
of traffic rules for that part of -Four
teenth street are left TO the hospira
authorities.
