a summary Of appropriation requests,
classified by function and showing
under each function the major items of
expenditure, should be made available
in printed form to interested individuals
and organizations.
Other Changes Urged.
Additional specific recommendations
for changes in the estimates and five
year program provide for the widening
Of H street from Seventeenth street to
Massachusetts, avenue; the widening of
Thirteenth street from Massachusetts,
avenue to Iowa Circle; the inclusion
of an appropriation for the develop
ment OF Washington's water facilities:
the inclusion of an appropriation of
s275,000 for the elimination of the
Michigan avenue grade crossing. and
the division of the proposed appropria-
ton of 100000 over 1881 and 1882.
Under the financial program as drawn
up by Maj. Donovan the entire amount
would be appropriated for the first
year. 1t was pointed out that this was
unnecessary since it is probable that the
work would take two years.

COMMERCE GROUP
ASKS AIRPORT FUND
Eight Changes in 1881 Dis
trict Estimates by Special
Committee.

Eight recommendations for desired
changes in the 1881 appropriation esti-
mates of the District Commissioners and
| the f1ve-year financial program drawn
up by Maj Daniel J. Donovan. District
| auditor, made yesterday by a special
committee of the Washington Chamber
OF Commerce, included incorporation in
the requests to Congress of provisions
/ for municipal airport, a National
Guard armory, appropriation of So 1000
900 in 1881 for the public schools and
! increased funds for the public library
| system.
The committee, presided over by
Charles w. Darr, president of the
chamber. also urged that the total
budget for 1891 be limited to $51 .o00,-
600 rather than $4S 500 900. as set out
in the five-year program The depart
mental estimate show need for $751;
600 600.
The committee was particularly en-
phatic in its disapproval of the idea of
large surplus in the Treasury. 1t was
said that the present surplus amounts
to 100000 and that this should be
used for many needed public improve
ments, notably public school buildings,
the lack of which is a decided handicap
to normal civic development"
SURPRISES Declared Expensive.
In disappearing of the principle of
municipal SURPRISES the report of the
committee states: 1T is accepted doc
trine in municipal financing that cur
rent revenues should balance current
expenditures. Deficits and SURPRISES are
both expensive: one because of interest
charges on Indebtedness and the other
because 1t ties up local funds which
might be employed at greater profit to
commerce and industry"
In it's message to the Commissioners
the specila committee suggested that
in future years public hearing be held
to give taxpayers and taxpayer associa-
tons the opportunity of presenting
their views on the appropriation es-
Inmates, and that before such hearings

with the settlement of our whole

that we must not only respond to the

social life and our methods as we con-
gregate in larger cities and feel the
great changes in agriculture and in
dustry.
We have to develop new moral and
religious concepts and follow new pio-
neer trails into new realms of thought
open to us. New types of economic or
ganization in this and in all parts of
the world require new leadership and
the service of many pioneers"
DR.. Wilbur explained that education.
the essence of invention, discovery and

know what their predecessors have

research, to determine what men may

Stressing the idea of today's pioneers
again in his address, the Secretary de-
clared that in no group is their greater
call for pioneers than in the Negro
race, which, he said, sis coming up

serve its own fellows, to advance with
those who are it's neighbors." He took
occasion to pay hearty compliment to
DR.. Mordecai w. Johnson, president of
Howard University. who had introduced
him to the graduates and the attending
audience as an exemplar of the kind of
pioneer present-day civilization and the
Negro race needs.
The exercises, held in the open air on

about later. On the other hand.
hardly anyone ever supposed that the
president would have difficulty in
either house such as developed with
the scnate's temporary revolt against
passing the bill without the deben-
ture scheme III 1t.
Borah's Detection Expected
The loss Of Senator Borah as a
Hoover leader-a position he &C
copied during the campaign-Was
generally discounted in advance. Few
expected that Borah would stay put
there very long. And Hoover has
demonstrated that in his army there
is, as III the past. only II general
the rest are l%ieutenants. Nevertheless.
1t was shown that the old Progressive
Democratic combination which has so
often sickened Republicans had not
been killed by events OF the cam
paign and final passage OF the Farm
bill doubtless found the president
with mixed emotions.
He took a licking OH the national
origins legislation. but not any more
of a licking than was needed to prove
that the senate often disregards a
presidents wishes. The senate has
always been like that and this was no
serious defeat. Probably OF even
more significance was the fact that
congress failed to appoint the con-
gressional prohibition enforcement
reorganization commission. which
Hoover wants to move enforcement
from the treasury to the justice de-
partmcnt. although there is no great
rush about that. The significance
seems to lie III reports that action
was deliberately omitted because Re-
publican House Leader Bert Smell was
good and sore over presidential neg
lect regarding patronage In New York
state.
Hearing From the Voters
Now most members Of congress are
at home, hearing what the country
thinks about the tariff bill which
the house sent to the senate. It is
too early to get a good idea what
they are hearing. but there is plenty
of reason for belief that the hard
boiled senate finance committee will
produce an even sitter bill. Already
it has gone far beyond Hoover's ex-
pressed ideas Of what a tariff bill
ought to be.
Unless the senate tears the com-
mittee bill all to pieces, the president
probably will have to act on a meas
ure calculated to make his hair stand
up. Whatever he does will be pretty
certain to make trouble for him. He
will Sinonjv have IN dncidn ,niCI oYif

washington. July 2.-It does not
yet seem to be settled whether Presi-
dent Hoover is making a large sue
cess of his attempts to boss congress
or whether congress has been run
ming over the president. Nearly ev-
eryone who has written about this
seems to have tried to prove one
thing or another.
The important point is that IL
Hoover does as we'll in his relations
with the legislative branch in the flu
ture as he has done to date. he will
have little reason to complain. I'm
fortunately. there Is ease to fear
that his troubles have merely be-
gun. The reason concerns the tar
If.
Already the tariff problem has the
president in something Of a hole. 1t
may not prove to be SO much Of a
hole, or the president may jump out
Of 1t into what he considers a mor
favorable II but the Democrats arc
hoping to convert it into a sucking
quicksand.
A Dangerous Subject
There Is no more effective way for
. president to get his feet wet than
to allow a tariff revision to enter his
administration. The revision now
proposed by Republican leaders in
both houses of congress is the fourth
In 20 years. The only one among the
other three which is comparable to
this one is that of 1910, which is SO
often credited with wrecking the Taft
administration and putting the DEM
ocrats back into power.
The Underwood tariff revision in
the first Wilson administration was
. revision downward: because of the
World war no one knows just how 1t
would have worked out. The Fordney-
McCumber Act. passed early in the
Harding administration. was a re-
vision upward and there has been
plenty Of argument whether Americas
industrial prosperity of the last few
years has been because of or in spite
Of 1t. Now comes an upward revision
under what may be denominated as
normal conditions and almost any
thing IAN happen.
Except for the tariff. neither Pres
ident Hoover and the Republican
party nor the country has found any
thing very new to worry about since
March 1.
Hoover got his farm bill through as
he wanted It, which is the main thing
to consider, and whether the relief
provided In the act will do any par-
ticular good is something to worry
