MEETING CALLED
FOR AIRPORT BODY
Commission to Organize, Name
Chairman and Ask for
Funds.

An organization meeting Of the
Washington Airport Commission, re-
Gently created by act of Congress,
will be held at pm. tomorrow in the
Senate District Committee room in
the Capitol at the call Of Senator
King Of Utah.
One of the first duties of the COM
mission, after electing a chairman,
will be to request funds to conduct
hearings and employ experts to assist
in selecting a permanent airport site.
The act authorized an appropriation
of $4,000 for expenses.
Congress stipulated that the COM
mission shall select a site and re-
port its findings to Congress "as soon
as practicable" Sponsors of the COM
mission bill hope the report may be
made in time for Congress to approve
the site and possibly appropriate funds
for its acquisition and development
before adjournment.
Members of the commission are
Senators King. Copeland of New York
and Austin of Vermont; Representa-
tives Norton Of New Jersey, chair
man of the House District Commit
tee; Nichols of Oklahoma and Cole Of
New York; Maj. Gen. Oscar Westover,
chief of the Army Air Corps; Frederic
A. Delano, chairman Of the National
Capital Park and Planning Commits.

Engineer Commissioner.

Education, various school officials
representatives of the Board of Trade
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association, the Federation of Cit
liens Associations, and other civic
groups interested in District legislation
Benefits Of Discussion.
Il particularly want the representa-
tives of the various civic organiza-
tons to meet the members of my
committee and discuss their prob
lens with them" said Mrs. Norton.
"Out of such conference may come
a legislative program that will be
beneficial to all Washington. At
least, the conferences will produce
some ideas that can be discussed dur
ing the Summer and Fall before Con-
gress returns, which can be woven
into a legislative program that the
committee can start to work on with
out delay when Congress returns in
January"
Specifically, Mrs. Norton is anxious
to learn what legislation that is des-
tined to die at the present session,
should be reintroduced at the outset
of the new session. There are now
more than 100 bills virtually pigeon
holed in either the Senate or House
committees. The majority of them,
however, are in subcommittee of the
House committee.
Mrs. Norton thinks the business
and civic leaders, as well as District
officials, should go over these bills
with the committee and indicate which
should be forgotten in the new Con-
gress.
Ever since Mrs. Norton has been a
member of the District Committee
she has persistently fought to give
residents of the District new deal"
She is a vigorous advocate of ma
tional representation for the District,
and has introduced a joint resolution
which would remove the shackles of
Acknowledgement from its residents.
