Mcleod Will Push Measure for District Delegate
ASKS Citizens
OPINION ON
MEASURE

Representative Clarence B,
Mcleod Of Michigan, chairman
Of the Judiciary subcommittee
of the House District Commit
tee during the last session Of
Congress, intends to push his
bill for a District delegate in
the House during the present
session, it was learned today.
d Mcleod plans to cali a conference
at the House Office Building Of
representatives of citizens associa-
tions trade organizations and other
groups In order to. determine what
they want in the way OF District
representation In the House.
Named By Commissioners
The bill, which Mcleod intro
duced at the last session Of Con-
gress, provides for election of q
Delegate to Congress by the Com
misgioners every two years. The
Delegate would have the same priv
iIeges and salaries accorded other
territorial Delegates. Like them,
also. he would not have vote.
Mcleod is anxious to learn from
the citizens representatives If they
are satisfied with the bin In its
present form, or IL they have sug-
gestiong to make regarding the
selection Of a Delegate.
Reconcile Views
Should there be wide divergence
between the opinions OF the citizens
and the contents OF the bin an it
stands, Mcleod intends to attempt
to reconcile these differences In \
new measure to be introduced late
in this session. The bill then will
be on the calendar In case the
House leaders raise the ban on gen
eral legislation in the closing days
OF the session.
h Inasmuch as Mcleod is vitally
interested In the census and reap
portionment bill, 1t is doubtful
whether he will hold the conference
until that measure is disposed Of by
the House.

merce Committee today by
Grover w, Ayres, civic worker

Ayres explained to Senators
Couzens and Dill that he had asked
for the same terms as the friends

speaking in support of that section
of the communications bill which
provides that all stations must al
low both sides of a political con.
troversy to be heard.
According to Ayres, officials OF
the two local stations were closely
allied with the movement for q DIS.
trict suffrage amendment.

request would not be granted unless
he could show numerous and In
fluential organizations behind him.
He said that he called on Leroy
Mark, Iicensee of station VOL, and
was told that his organization could
have time on their program. He
