The conference on the 1887
District appropriation bill will
continue today If the conferees
find time to leave the floors Of
the House and Senate to attend.
Although complete secrecy sur
rounded the debate on the bill
held yesterday behind closed
doors, it is understood that only
the general scope Of the bill has
been discussed and that specific
items will be attended to at today's
meeting. 1t is understood, also,
that the conference will be called
from day to day now until it is
finished.
Debate Is Heard
Late yesterday just before the
conference halted, the voices of
Senator Carter Glass Cd, Vir-
ginia, and Representative Thomas
L. Blanton CD, Texas, could be
heard through the heavy oak
doors Of the room. They were
vigorously debating the tax Situa-
ton in the city.
1t was Senator Glass who led
the opposition to granting the
Texans request to appear before
the Senate subcommittee when it
was rewriting the bill passed by
the House.
In High Spirits
Everyone seemed in high spirits
when they filed out Of the COM
mittee room and Representative j.
William Otter CR), Pennsylvania,
paused long enough to remark
that no one had gone down for
the count of 10, but one or two
had been down for the count Of
three.
Other members of the conferees
refused to discuss the progress
made on the bill.

COUNTY GIVES
$4,000 AID

ROCKVILLE, Md, May Ire.
lief expenditure by the Mont
gomery County Welfare Board in
caring for 1,O25 local families over
the past three-month period has
amounted to nearly $4,000, Miss
Dorothy A. Everson, executive sec.
rotary to the board, reported here
today.
In addition to this the board has
approved 1876 old age pensions and
administered assistance to 230
children in so families, through
the channels Of the Aid to Deepen
dant Children, Miss Everson de-
clared.
Although the board is still faced
with 245 more applications for old
age pensions, the process Of inves-
tigation as required by State and
Federal laws entails so much work
that only few can be completed
each month. After an application
for a pension has been approved
and the amount has been set, it
is paid from a fund made up Of
one-sixth county funds. two-sixths
State and three7sixths Federal
funds, Miss EverSon pointed out.
While the welfare board Is only
one Of three agencies giving relief
to the needy in Montgomery
county, it is now administering aid
to dependant children, old age
pensioners, and general public as
Sistance to people in need. Admin
istration Of pensions to the blind,
as provided for under the Federal
Security Act, will be handled by
the board within few weeks, Of
ficialS said today.

TRAFFIC RULE
AMENDMENTS
D|TCHED

Proposed amendments to the
traffic regulations establishing
pedestrian control in the down
town congested area and banning
automobile horn footing at night
appeared destined to be killed to.
morrow when the District Commits
sioners meet.
Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen
announced he will bring up both
tomorrow. On Tuesday the city
heads rejected the horn-tooting
proposal recommended by an anti
noise committee and shelved the
pedestrian control proposal pend
ing experiments with pedestrian
signal lights on F Street north
west at Twelfth and Thirteenth
Streets.
Allen and Sultan Opposed
Views of Commissioners Dan I.
Sultan and George E. Allen on the
proposals remained unchanged.
Both reiterated today they are Of
the opinion that the proposed
amendments cannot be enforced
and they are opposed to them.
Commissioner Hazen's view
point was changed after he con-
ferred with Traffic Director VIII
liam A. Van Duzer, who urged en-
actment Of both regulations. Van
Duzer told Commissioner HAGEN
the experiments with pedestrian
lights on F Street will be useless
unless the regulations are adopted.
He argued that existing regula-
tons do not give policemen
enough authority to regulate pc
destrian traffic.
i Present regulations do not pro,
hibit "jay walking" but do pro-
vide that at traffic-controued in
tersections pedestrians have the
right of way on Ego" signals and
must yield the right Of way when
traffic is preceding on the same
signals.
Regulations Ample
Commissioner Allen expressed
the opinion that this regulation is
ample to control pedestrians. He
added that the District already
has too many traffic and police
regulations.
Commissioner Sultan declared
he believed pedestrian control
should be established through edu
cation Of the public, but saw nc
use in enacting regulations which
cannot be enforced.
The horn footing ban proposal
provides that no horn be sounded
for any reason whatever between
ii p. m. and Z a. m. Commissioner
Hazen foStered the regulation at
the meeting Of the city heads, but
later announced his opposition. He
said the present regulation pro
hibiting unnecessary noise at all
times was ample,

HOBBY LINKED
ROBUSTNESS

It isn't often that a fellow can
earn a living and keep his hobby
going from the same desk.
But John Van Slycke can and
does.
Not that he neglects his duties
at the Cunard Line offices here;
far from that. In fact, he's hard
to see; he's that busy.
But John Van Slycke collects
stamps. And the quantities Of for
eign mail that come over his desk
very often lose their foreign
stamps, and John Van Slycke is
the man who gets them. AS he
himself explains:
1--WE get mail from all over
the world. And that makes it
easy for me to collect stamps
from foreign countries.
'In addition, I had large col
lection Of stamps handed down
to me. My father gave me an
important collection Of early
United States stamps, some as
early as the first issue Of Ameri-
can stamps In 1S47.
81 also have q whole set Of
1868 stamps, an interesting set
issued during the Lincoln admin
iStratiOn."
Mr.. Van Slycke also collects first
day covers and is now anXiouSly
awaiting the arrival Of the new
liner, Queen Mary, which sails on
her maiden voyage May a and
which will bring a cancelled first
day cover to the Van Slycke col
lection.

G.P.0.BUILDING
FUND GOES
TO HOUSE

Appropriations of $2,O0O,0 900 for
the continuation of the addition
to the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing and 100000 for the con.
tinuation of construction OF a
Government Printing office an
mex are recommended in the first
deficiency bill reported by the
Sicllse Appropriations Committee
to the House today.
The committee, however, dis
allowed estimates of the Bureau
Of the Budget for the commence
ment of the new War Department
building and a new Pension Office
building. In explaining its reasons
for disallowing these two projects,
the committee, in its report, said !:
''The estimates contained S.
100000 for commencement of q
new building to house the War
Department under a total esti-
mated cost Of $23,67O,OOO. The
committee held no hearings on
the request. The data presented
for consideration indicated that
further preliminary investigation
and study Of space requirements
and future needs are necessary
in connection with the housing,
not only of this department, but
Of other permanent activities Of
the Government before the lOca-
ton ard construction Of further
public buildings in Washington
are undertaken.
RENTS MUCH SPACE
SThe Government is renting,
between the emergency and per-
Inanent activities, very large
amount of office space in Wash
ingtOn, much of it for agencies
that are now known to be per-
manent in character. Before
further extensive construction Of
. permanent nature is under
taken, the needs for permanent
housing should be correlated and
locations, types, priOrities and
other essential factors carefully
weighed and conclusions reached
with respect to the whole neCes'
sity."
The report pointed out that at
the last session of Congress an
initial appropriation was made foi
the alteration and extension of the
old Pension Office Building under
g total estimated cost of $4,700,
600. The budget this year, how
ever, recommended repeal of the
previous authorization and, in its
stead, the authorization Of new
building on a new site at total
cost of $8,600,000.
New Building Cut Out
Explaining that, although the
committee has eliminated the pro
posed authorization for a new
building and Site, the report said:
"It does not by that elimina-
ton mean to convey the intent
that the remOdeling and extern
sion of the Pension building
should not be proceeded with.
"The elimination Of the 49,
100000 has been made because
the committee feels in this in
stance, as in the case of the new
War Department project, that
insufficient study has been made
and the future requirements are
not now sufficiently clear to
justify a determination of the
matter"
