The President was reported by
Woodward to have been keenly dis
appointed at his inability to follow
out tentative plans to attend the con-

July of this year these salaries were
as much as 1874 per cent of the
money given to relief clients. A year
ago each case worker handled sc
cases a year and today each case
worker handles but 50, due to an
increase in the case-work staff.
Asks Discharge Of so.
Lusk proposed that 50 members Of
the case work staff be Immediately
discharged and that the entire stafi
be ousted by next June 80.
. To support his claim that there
is no depression here, Lusk submitted
figures to show: That the value of
residential construction in the first
six months Of this year, amounted
to S6,63l 900, an increase Of 31I per
cent over the first six months of
1888; that the total dollar value Of
all construction In the first six
months of this year was, $20, 0,254. 900,
an increase of 300 per cent over the
same period Of 1898; that 15,802 new
passenger automobiles were purchased
here in the first half of this year, an
increase of Ills per cent over the
same period of 1888; that bank clear
ings for the six months Of 1885 totaled
s445, 1886 900, an increase Of 44.2 per
cent, and that In June, 1885. there
were 1o3,45 Government employees
an increase Of So per cent over the
total in June, 1888.
Lusk urged the Commissioners also
to make study of the rising cost o.
pensions for police and flremen, de.
claring that the expense has risen
from s17o, 900 in 1921 to 81, ,o1o 900 70,

Roosevelt Orders Them to c
Supply Estimates to
Bureau Director.

President Roosevelt today issued
another executive order requiring six
more independent agencies Of the
Government to submit to the budget
director estimates covering future ad-
ministration expenses. ~.
The first order of this kind which
instituted the Presidents policy OF
bringing these independent agencies
within the jurisdiction of the Budget
Bureau, was issued by the President
on August and affected seven agen-
cieS.
The order today affects six, namely.
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp,

tration, the Export-Import Bank Of
Washington, D. c.: the Second Export
Import Bank of Washington, D. c.:
the Reconstruction Finance Corp, and

ties Of children going back and forth

sium, is estimated to cost s175,0 900.
Maio surprised all present by prais-
ing the Commissioners for the i'm
provements for Southeast Washington

proved for the future. Southeast busi-
ness men have been assailing the Com
missioners for their alleged refusal to
sympathize with the Southeast.
Maio was insistent, however, about
the need Of replacing the Pennsylvania
Avenue Bridge, but recalled that the
House this session struck out an item
Of $4,000 for plans after it had been
approved by the Commissioners, the
Budget Bureau and the Senate prior
to conference.
The Southeast groups, through Maio,
also asked for widening of Independ-
ence avenue from Second street
southeast to Fourth street southwest; !;
a. swimming pool and recreation CEN
ter near Eleventh street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue southeast, a waiting
room and comfort station for Commo-
dore Barney Circle and a variety of

The Commissioners told DR.. Jordan
they were in favor of replacing Chain
Bridge with a utilitarian span at
about the same level as the present

Smith informed them they could not
be expected to contribute to the cost.

decided to go in there anyway. A trac-

ment was in camp Saturday after

The regimental camp on Sunday
was a model Of orderliness, with no
indication it had Just been slashed out

Of the site, were won over before the

and few criticisms have been heard
since.

permit us to hold national matches on
a large scale. We have held small

Today the local Guard troops at
Camp Simms are observing the annual

with tradition, always is held on the
first Wednesday Of the encampment.

~ UT of the refusal of Maryland
health authorities to permit
Y the District National Guard
to train at Cascade, Md. this
Summer may grow a District Guard
camp which not only will adequately
house the entire Guard, but also ac-
commodate the militia troops of
Maryland, Virginia and other nearby
States for large-scale maneuVers.
Faced last week with the alternative
of canceling the annual field encamp-
ment of the 12lst Engineer Regiment
and other Guard troops or of finding
quarters for them on three days no.
tice, Col. John w. Oehmann, regi-
mental commander, set about the es-
tablishment of a permanent location
at Camp Simms. D. c., which will for
ever make the District Guard inde-
pendent of the Maryland and Penn
sylvania sites which have been used
in the past.
The 121st Regiment, the 29th Mill
tary Police Company and special
service troops of the 29th Division,
comprising the local Guard units, now
are in the middle of the first week Of
their annual two weeks Of field train
ing at Camp Simms, and Col. Oehmann
and other local Guard officers are so
well pleased with conditions there and
with the possibilities for the future
that they are undertaking a program
of construct on which will make the
local camp a model Of its kind.
Marsh Land Improved.
The marsh land, which formerly
created an impossible barrier in the
heart of Camp Simms, now Is being
filled and graded and soon will become
spacious, well-drained parade
ground. About two miles Of new
roads have been constructed and a
$4,000 warehouse and garage built.
Col. Oehmann is planning the con-
struction of two new barracks build
ings to provide permanent quarters
for a full battalion on the hilltop
above the new parade ground. Addi-
ton Of l3 new targets to the camp
rifle range will make possible the
holding there Of national matches,
Col. Oehmann explained.
1--WE have not been taking advan-
tage Of our possibilities" Col. Oehmann
said. I'VE have at Simms site which
has very great possibilities. I feel
sure that we can establish a camp
within the District Of Columbia which
will be a source of pride to the city
and a permanent incentive to devel-
opment of the local Guard"
Col. Oehmann yesterday had so ad-
