FISCAL RELATIONS
REPORT PLANNED
Richards Announces Plan Will
Embody Reforms in Tax
System Here.

A report embodying recommenda.
tions for a revision of the fiscal rela-
tions between the Federal and District
governments and certain reforms in
the local tax system will be submitted
to the Commissioners in the near
future by the committee which repre-
sented Washington at the recent con-
ference of the National Tax Associa-
ton in Toronto, it was announced
today by Tax Assessor William P.
Richards, who acted as secretary of
the delegation.
A tentative outline of the report
already has been drafted by a sub
committee. Mr.. Richards said, and as
soon as the full group meets and COM
pletes the final revision, it will be
sent to the District Building.
While none of the details Of the
! tentative report was revealed, 1t Is
certain that a readjustment of the
fiscal relations on a more equitable
and permanent basis would be recon-
mended.
Commissioner Sidney F. Taliaferro
has indicated that the committees IS
recommendations would be used as
the basis for an energetic campaign
to be waged by the Commissioners at
the forthcoming session Of Congress
to bring about reform in the fiscal
relations and the present tax system.
The support Of all civic, trade and
all other organizations in the District
concerned with tax matters will be
sought in the meantime.

REPUBLICAN HOPES
IN MASSACHUSETTS
TURN TO FULLER


lieve that the national prohibition law
could be enforced, and for that reason

Showdown to Be Interesting.
A showdown on the wet and dry
issue in Massachusetts,, which the
prospective referendum promises to
give, will prove interesting. The issue
was stressed in 1925, when the Demo
cratic candidate for governor. Col.
CASTOR. ran on wrfnglng wet pat
form, and Senator David I. Walsh, the
Democratic candidate for the Senate,
also was a wet. Senator Walsh was
elected over former Senator William
| M. Butler, and Col. CASTOR was de-
feated by Gov. Fuller. It was di.
vided victory on the wey and dry issue.
| for both Mr.. Butler and Gov. Fuller
were acceptable to the drys and had
dry support. But the liquor question
is credited with having had a good
| deal to do with the defeat OF Mr.. But
| ler. Mr.. Butler is expected by many
| of his friends to enter the campaign
for the Senate next year against Sen
ator Walsh, although Mr.. Butler has
SO far made no public announcement
of his plans.

than two months away. Already there

| There are at least two groups ant
| two schools OF thought on the best
method Of selecting the delegation

The tremendous development Of
American industry would never have
been possible without the develop

ing, James O'Shaughnessy, executive
secretary of the American Association
of Advertising Agencies, today told
200 Washington business men attend

Martin A Leese, president of the

The Chamber and other local organ

observance of Management week,
held in Washington this year for the
first time.
Taking as his topic advertising
and the Part 1t Plays in Maintaining
Prosperity" Mr. O'Shaughnessy point.
ed out that production in American
business today Is a dependent thing
one that can neither grow nor exist
commercially without distribution.
Methods Of distribution grow old or
too weak or too slow to meet with
modern competition, which is based
on swift and daring methods of dis.
tribution, he said. This makes it
necessary for the American business
man to make the greatest possible
use of advertising in order to keep up
distribution.
After a general discussion of the
activities of a modern advertising
agency. the speaker declared that the
American business man who succeeds
today is he who is most diligent, best
Informed, highest in courage, honest
and most eager to render the most
good to his fellows. Prosperity, he
said. now general to the widest extent
in this country, does not extend to the
indolent, the timorous or complacent
man. Moral guidance, he concluded,
is the assurance of success with ade.
quate reward. Too much of the days
work in this age, he pointed out, is
exposed to the public view to permit
a dishonest success in modern bust
ness.

which marks the finish of the all-age

secretary-trea surer of the association,
this has been one of the most sue

citation, with every factor perfect. He
pronounced the Fairfax County course
one Of the best grounds in the coun-

of natural birds. Every brace yester.
day started birds. The only drawback
has been the difficulty in obtaining a
sufficient number of saddle horses for
all who wish to follow the dogs.
The members derby for young dogs,
which was completed yesterday, was
won by Dauntless Lucky, the pointer

Mr.. Dunn, who has six dogs in the

Creates Commission.
About four years ago the Legis-
lature, swamped with numberless bills
providing for future planning in the
metropolitan district, created the
| metropolitan planning division Of the
Metropolitan District Commission.
This planning division already has
looked far into the future and has an
ticipated the changes which the years
will bring. 1t has delivered lengthy
reports to the Legislature on specific
questions, such as the city's dock facil-
itieS, its terminal facilities. rapid
transit facilities and a plan for ffna nc
ing the Boston elevated system when
the time expires for private control.
It has looked thoroughly into traffic
conditions as they are today and has
conducted numberless traffic counts to
forecast what they will be tomorrow.
In this latter connection 1t has work
cd out a highway scheme based on
the traffic needs of the future. so that
when these needs arise the plan will
l. c11k ~
mept. That is the principle which
lies behind the formation Of the plan
ming division, to make plans for fu-
ture needs, but not TO put them into
effect until the needs Justify them.
The Legislature is the controlling
agency in all these steps, past. present
and fI7ure, for the metropolitan dis
trct But in addition, the city of
Boston and the other cities and
towns within the municipal area
have their separate park commissions
and their planning commissions, put
ting into effect their own improve
ments and plans for development.
The Legislature, with the help OF the
Metropolitan District Commission and
it's planning division, is the correla-
tive and executive agency.

their ability to pay and the extent to
which they would benefit, and, put
into effect a common sewerage system.
Sewage disposal naturally was fol-
lowed by water supply. and later still
the communities affected, having
united their interests in water and
sewerage, began the development of
marks and Fairgrounds. Later still
came the advisa bility of Joining these
parks by parkways, and still later the
construction of arteries of boulevards
to take care of through traffic, all
contributing to the health, comfort
and happiness of the people living
within the metropolitan district.
1t was natural in this development
that in some of the smaller communi-
ties the property could not be taxed as
highly as the property in some of the
larger and sWealthier communities.
The Legislature was given the task
of apportioning the expense, and Bos'
ton bears sous, 50, per cent of the cost
of developing the metropolitan area.
The expense is born by assessing cost
on the basis, of what property in the
various municipalities will bear, and
on the resulting benefit from improve
mentS made.
Many Advantages.
Boston today shows many examples
of the disadvantages. as well as the
advantages, of failure to have had a
plan in advance for conditions as they
are today. When the need for play
grounds has arisen, for instance, build
1ngs have had to be condemned and
raZed to provide the sites, for there
were no other sites available. When
congested traffic brought the necessity
for widened streets, there has been
no alternative but to cut into build
ings, instead of narrowing the side
walks as has been done in Washing.
ton. This has been an expensive proc.
ess. But, on the other hand, there
has been some advantage in this lack
of foresight on the part of the Pilgrim
Fathers, whose idea was not that a
straight line is the shortest distance
between two points.
AS illustrated particularly in Boston
the course of the streets seems to fol
low the aimless wanderings Of a cow,
or a bear, or of some other of the
early deniZens of the region given tC
aimless wanderings. So instead of q
street system laid out as checker
board, the streets proceeding directly
north and south or east and west
meeting at right angles, the streets
traditionally crooked. But this fact
is cause for some pride on the par
of the present residents, who see ir
the system a versatile and artistic
effect which otherwise would have
been ruined by an orthodox but non
Bostonian street system.
Another advantage put down by
those who reverently thank the Pill
grim Fathers foritheir failures in city

The early inhabitants built their
