day.
Following his conference with
Chairman Childress. Senator King
said that he was confident the COM
mission would act without any great
delay and that a plan satisfactory
to all parties would be enacted by
Congress. Some weeks will elapse
before the Commissions plan viii
be ready for the House and Senate
District committees, Senator King
predicted.
I'VE must have merger legisla-
ton at this session." said Senator
King. II have not committed my
self in favor of any plan, but I be-
lieve the Harley p. Wilson proposal
has many merits. I would not be in
favor, however, of guaranteeing
earnings to the company above the
per cent rate"
Senator King also conferred with
the District Commissioners today
with regard to the budget and new
zoning legislation. He is not in
favor Of the restoration of the 60-4O
fiscal ratio. TIE thinks a reason

the residents of the District. and
that the Federal Government should

phasized at the November meeting
Of the Hyattsville Chamber of Com
Enerce last night.

mayor OF HyattsvilIe, were ap-
pointed by President Lenuel L.

Mayor Willis urging the contin-

the chamber that for some reason
''cold water apparently had been

been told, that politicians" in the

CLAYTON IS FOR
BACHNAN PLAN

William Mex. Clayton, long Q
leader of organized citizenship in
public utility affairs, came out to-
day in favor Of the Bachman street
car merger plan, drafted by Byers
Mex. Bachnan, accountant Of the
Public Utilities Commission.
Clayton not only endorsed Bach
mans plan but indicated that he
will seek the support of the Fed
GRAFTON of Citizens Associations for
1t.
"Bachman's plan Is excellent and
embodies most of the merger prin-
ciples for which the Federation has
been fighting for many years"
Clayton said. 1T also follows
closely the merger ideas of former
Engineer Commissioner j. Franklin
Bell.
The way in which Bachman has
handled the valuation question Is in
direct accord with the Federation's
stand. We have always believed
that fixed valuation should be
avoided and value set later by
the commission"
Clayton also recommended Bach.
mans plan for It's omission OF the
Washington Rapid Transit Company
from the proposed consolidation, and
its sliding scale Of fare and return.
Ii Clayton seeks the support OF
the Federation for Bachman's plan
it will further complicate an al
ready badly muddIed situation.
Federation leaders are now
divided between the Wilson and
Hansel plans drafted by Harley p.
Wilson and Charles Hansel, re-
spectively. Major Clayton Emig,
vice chairman OF the utilities com.
mittee, favors the Hansel plan and
many prominent leaders of the
Federation are leaning toward the
Wilson plan.
The split has brought about one
OF the bitterest situations In Fedora
ton history. Committees for next
year are about to be appointed. and
one faction Is supporting Emig
while another wants Clayton. who
has been chairman for many years.
but has been inactive during recent
months.
There have been runors that
neither would be appointed and a
