subcommittee of the Senate Appropria
tions Committee, said today he wants

members as to whether Mr.. Lord should
be asked to testify.

visable to call Mr.. Lord was put for
ward by Senator Bingham at Thursday
nights hearing. after the, Citizens Joint
Committee on Fiscal Relations Between
the United States and District of Co.
lumbia had presented comprehensive
answer to the report of the House COM
mittee.
The Mapes Committee, going on the
theory that Washington is lightly taxed,
drafted four bills to increase local taxa
ton and, at the same time advocated
cutting the Federal Governments share
of District expenses from 9,500, 900 to
S6,500,000 year. The Citizens Joint
Committee presented statistics to the
Senate group showing conclusively that
Washington, instead of being under
taxed, bears relatively high tax bur-
den.
