A FORMALITY
Battles, Baugh and Edwards
made their first team nomination
a formality in that well-nigh in
credible 49 to IA performance
against the Giants four days ago.
Yet this no more than confirmed
a season of sheer merit.
Baugh established a new record
with 81 completed passes. Bat
ties, absent from two complete
games. still was able to run up the
second highest total of yards
gained, S74, in the history Of the
league.
CATCHES Al PASSES
Hutson broke his own record by
catching Al passes, as against "a
last year. He also broke his own
record with $50 yards gained as a
result, but Tinsley did even better
with 675. But Hewitt, they say,
is the best all around end in foot
ball, just as Dutch Clark is &C.
claimed as the best all around
player.
However, the Dutchman may
have to do something drastic
about that next years Why? Be.

FISCAL GROUP
GETS MANY
PROTESTS
Rep. Norton Will Call
House Members
On Tuesday

Protests from local civic organi-
cations have begun to pour in
upon the House District Commit
tee in connection with the report
of the Presidents Committee on
Fiscal Relations, it was learned
today.
Meanwhile, Representative Mary
T. Norton CD, of New Jersey,
chairman of the District group,
has definitely fixed Tuesday at
10:30 a. m. as the time for the
first meeting of her committee, at
which time she will appoint the
members of the two Subcom-
mittees which will handle the two
parts of the report.
One of the subcommittee, that
to study and act on the legiSla-
ton for raising additional revenue
to meet the deficit which will be
faced in 1888, will be headed by
Representative Ambrose j. Ken
nedy CD, of Maryland, while the
other, to study and act on the
numerous statutory changes rec
commended in the fiscal relations
report, will be presided over by
Representative Jack Nichols Cd +,
Of Oklahoma.
Representative Kennedy is tax
ing a copy of the report to his
home in Baltimore this weekend
so that he may become familiar
with all its details, and, mean
while, he is seeking the aid Of
Maryland tax experts in seeking
to find the best means Of provid-
ing additional revenue for the Dis
trict.
Among the protests against the
fiscal relations report which have
come to the District Committee to
date is that of the Federation of
Business Mems Association, Inc,
in which it is contended that un-
der the division of cost proposal
of the Jacobs group. the Federal
contribution to the local Govern
ment is unfair and insufficient. :"

LANDLORDS
'G0UGERS'
Federal Village" " at
Cost of $1,000,
Is Proposed

Assailing Washington landlords
for what he characterized as their
"gouging of members of Congress
and the judiciary" in the rentals
arged, Representative Alfred
Better CD, of New York, today
revealed the provisions of a bill
he will introduce Monday for the
construction of a Federal village"
near the Capitol.
The project, under Mr.. Beiter'S
proposal, would cost not more
than $6,OOO,O0O, and would be
erected on a site bounded by
South Capitol and Seventh SITS.
S. W., and Virginia Avenue and
the Botanical Gardens.
It would provide living quarters
for the exclusive use of the men,
bers of Congress and of the Fed
eral judiciary here as well as en-
ployes of the Capitol and their
families. However, Mr.. Better
pointed out, if during the summer
recess, members of Congress de-
sired to Sublet their quarters they
could do so to anyone they cared
to.
Close 10 Streets
The project, which, under the
terms Of the Better proposal,
would call for the closing of 10
streets on the proposed site, would
be financed by Federal funds and
operated under a corporation COM
posed of members of the House
and Senate. He provides that the
money be borrowed from the Re.
construction Finance Corporation
and the loan amortized in 40
years.
Mr.. Better estimates that the
housing project itself will cost ap.
proximately four million dollars
and that the purchase of that por.
ton OF the land not now owned
by the Government would cost an
additional $1,500,000. The other
$500, 900 he proposes be made avail.
able in case any extras" are
needed in the construction Of the
project.
In a statement issued by Mr.,
Better today, he described the pro.
posed project as follows:
"The style Of the entire deveE.
Opment will be Tudor Gothic.
The buildings will be SO To-
Gated as to form q cross 1870
feet long and 700 feet wide at
the crossing. The enclosure will
contain a formal garden with
three levels of reflecting basins
featured with fountains.
