TAXPAYER VOICE
HELD NEED IN D. c.
Greater Share in Control of
Affairs Advocated by
Pat McCarran.

Referring to the District OF Column
bia, Senator Pat McCarran of Nevada,
in an address before the Burroughs
Citizens Association last night, de-
clared taxpayers should have
greater voice in their own Government.
Senator McCarran avoided express
ing his view on how this should be
accomplished, but asserted his belief
in public hearings on matters con-
cerning the District. Likewise. he
said, members of Congress should
better acquaint themselves with Wash
ingtonians because of their lack of a
voice in affairs, to better learn their
desires and needs.
Because of his interest in affairs
of the community in which he was
living, the Senatorial member of the
District Committee said he had sought
that position.
Backed Pay Bills.
The Senator pointed out his spon-
sorship of both governmental en-
p.oyes' pay restoration bills, declaring
the Government was more secure"
when the "toilers" were satisfied,
The Senator pointed out the need
for patriotism and loyalty to the
American flag. Such demonstration
as is carried out by the Boy Scouts,
he said, is the best antidote to Com
muniSm.
Senator McCarran, referring to the
overcrowded conditions in local schools
and lack of sufficient teachers, de-
clared these matters should be checked
and improved by Congress.
He referred to the small loans law
before Congress, lauding the citizens
of Washington for demanding proper
reported favorably by committee was
recalled for consideration after public
hearings were demanded by District
citizens. The proposed small loans
law was disapproved last meeting by
the Burroughs Citizens Association.
In accordance with his expressed
wish that he might meet each men,
ber personally, the meeting adjourned
after his address Mrs. McCarran was
present and was introduced along with
the Senator by Paul Jameson, chair
man Of the associations Legislative
Committee.
p. w. A. Funds Asked for Schools.

posal set forth in newspaper articles
calling for building of schools here
through Public Works Administration
funds. The School Committee was
instructed to find out what action had
been taken. It was reported unofi-
cially that a proposal called for the
building of % schools here at an
estimated cost of $2,985 900. The
resolution was adopted unanimously.

sented with an American flag by

FIXING IN
S-NRA DOOMED
Bill in Final Form to Be
Simply an Enabling Act,
Is Indication.

With both houses of the General
Assembly in weekend recess. men,
bers of the Senate Judiciary B Com
mittee continued to maintain a dis
Greet silence today regarding con-
templated amendments to the State
NRA bill.
The committee will hold a public
hearing at 7:30 Monday night. at
which the House-approved Dyer
state industrial sterilization act
will be discussed.
Meanwhile it became increasingly
evident that the legislation will be
amended to convert it into a brief
state enabling act. Such a measure
would supplement Federal machin-
cry for enforcing code compliance
by authorizing the Governor to
utilize existing judicial machinery
for enforcement in state courts.
Every one is agreed that the loss
leader" and price fixing provisions
of the Dyer act will be eliminated.
If the measure is converted into
an enabling act, there would be no
necessity for repeating the provisions
of the Federal laws. which. in fact.
still are pending before the Con-
greSs.
1t was learned on good authority
that the amendments which the
committee rs in mind will make the
S-NRA bill wholly satisfactory to in
fiuential industrial and labor groups
which have been displeased with the
Dyer bill.

the New Deal back on an even keel
The $4,880, 100000 work relief bill,
wrecked at least temporarily by
Senate insurgents, was the issue
which brought the Administration
face to face with the most trying
legislative problem it has encoun-
tered in it's two years of existence.
Leaders at the Capitol, somewhat
confused at the sudden turn in
events, gave conflicting views of the
situation.
One of them, Senator James F.
ByrneS 3D., S. O., said, perhaps
sincerely and perhaps for strategic
purposes, that the work-relief pro-
gram was dead"
Others privately expressed the
view that it might still be possible
to rescue the work-relief bill from
the tangle which has developed
around it in the Senate.
Into this situation of uncertainty
came a report that the President,
to reassert his position and to take
advantage of the confidence eX-
pressed in him at the last election,
might carry his cause to the people
in an effort to force Congress back
in line.
The statement of Senator Byrnes
the work relief is dead" may be
taken in one or two ways.
Either the Administrator will
abandon the work-relief plan or it
will seek, through parliamentary
procedure, to overcome the stub
born resistance which the Senate
has shown.
