New D. c. Taxes.
NO BILL YET DRAFTED

Advisory Referendum Method on
District Questions Wins
Full Support.
RY / A. O,LEARY.

Expressing the belief the present
Federal share of the annual expenses
of the National Capital is not on
fair or equitable basis. Senator Cap
per of Kansas, ranking Republican
on the Senate District Committee, said
TODAY the citizens of the District
should have a chance to be heard on
that question in connection with any
new local taxes which may be pro-
posed at the coming session.
The Kansan also commended the
decision of the Commissioners to hold
a public hearing to allow District resi-
dents to indicate how much they be-
heve should be spent on municipal
improvements, before drafting new
tax bills.
Senator Capper and Senator NC
Carran, Democrat, of Nevada, were
Amounted by Chairman King OF the
Senat committee, at the last session,
as a subcommittee to handle local
tax problems.
No Dry Bill Planned.
He has no bill drafted to re-
establish prohibition in the District,
and has not contemplated preparing
one. Cspper said. He indicated his
intention to wait and see what
develops on the question in the
House. where Representative Guyer,
Republican, of Kansas has Dill

Commissioner Aliens bill to estab-
lish the advisory referendum method
of testing local sentiment on I'M

trict met with the approval OF the
Kansan, who said: .-..
"The people here ought to have a
voice of some kind in their affairs.
do not know of any community
where the resirents have so little to
say" Senator Capper also is co-author
of the Joint resolution proposing con-
stitutional amendment that would
empower Congress to give the people
of the District national representation
in the House and Senate and the right
to vote in presidential elections.
Opposes Income Tax. --5- .
Referring to the discussion of pos
sible new taxes here, Capper said he
would be opposed to an income tax
unless it should become absolutely
necessary. He does not feel it is
imperative at this time. In agreeing
that the question of the Federal share
of future District appropriation bills
should be considered along with new
tax burdens locally, Senator Capper
said:
It do not think we are, on basis
that is fair to the District now"
For the current fiscal year the Fed
eral payment is only $4,000 toward
a total appropriation of about S40.-
100000. The Senator indicated he
believes the Government has gone too
far in cutting down its share of the
cost of maintaining the Capital City.
He recalled that when he first came
to Washington District expenses were
on the half -and-half basis. Later
this was changed to a 60-40 ratio.
Under the lump sum method of Fed
eral payment inaugurated IL years
ago, the total of the appropriations
has gone up while the lump sum has
gone down.
II don't think we need horSe-racing
here" the Senator said, commenting
on revival of the race track bill in the
House.

Prettyman handed Senator King two
bills yesterday, one to apply the uni
form narcotic act to Washington and
the other to amend the loca, pharmacy
law. He also told the Senator he is
working on revised measure to In
crease the powers of the Commis-
sioners. a step that has always been
favored by Senator King.
If the study Of local revenue re-
quirements for the future leads to any
new tax recommendations, King said
he still would favor o local income tax,
to take the place Of the intangible per-
sonal tax. He pointed out, however.
that he had ceased to advocate the in
come tax bill sometime ago. because of
local opposition.

ECONOMY IS URGED.
ON DISTRICT HEADS.
King Advises They Weigh
Carefully Amounts They
Wish to Spend.
BY r. A. O'LEARY,

Indicating his belief in economy in
municipal expenditures, Chairman
King of the Senate District Committee
has urged the Commissioners and
Washington residents to weigh care
fully the amounts they want to spend
in the immediate future on various
classes of city improvements before
any new taxes are proposed.
Following a preliminary conference
yesterday on the legislative program
with Corporation Counsel E. Barrett
Prettyman, Senator King outlined his
views on a variety of questions that
will arise during the coming session.
He said he Twill not look with favor"
on the bill to legalize horse racing in
the District. which is to be revived in
the House. Senator Tydings, Demo-
crat, of Maryland, another member Of
the District Committee, also has indi-
Gated he will oppose the racing bill if
it reaches the Senate. The ranking
Republican on the committee, Senator
Capper of Kansas, prevented action
on the measure in a previous Con-
gress.
FavOrs Loan Measure.
Chairman King announced he will
favor a bill to sllow the District to
borrow Federal funds to begin con-
struction Of the minor court build
ings in Judiciary Square, thereby
opening the way for disposal of part
of the large municipal center site
Congress required the District to pur-
chase between Pennsylvania and In
diana avenues.
Solution of the airport problem
should be another objective of his
committee at this session, King said.
House and senate conferees failed to
agree at the last session on proposal
for appointment of commission to
recommend an airport program for
the Capital.
Senator King reiterated his position
in favor Of the provision in the cur
rent District appropriation act forbid
ding the teaching or advocating of
communism in the public schools.
The Senator said course on eco
nomics in colleges or universities prob
ably should include an explanation of
the communistic system, but he is op-
posed to it in grade and high schools.
Fr0wns on Referenda.
The Senator indicated he is not con-
vinced of the necessity for holding ad-
visory referenda to obtain the senti-
ment of District residents on impor-
tant questions, as proposed by Com
missioner George E. Allen. His pres
ent view is that, ordinarily. District
sentiment can be ascertained quickly
such organizations as the citi-
zens' associations and the Board of
Trade.
