A New "MayOr''

wxTITH the appointment of Representative Mary T.
w Norton to the Craftsmanship of the House Com
mittee on Labor Representative Vincent L. Pamisano
becomes the chairman of the House Committee the
District of Columbia.
In this new position Mr.. Palmisano becomes the all
important cog in the intricate and delicate machinery
BY which the National Capital is governed.
On the ability and understanding which Representa-
tive Palmisano displays in this new position Of respon
sibity will depend the progress of the great Capital
and the happiness and contentment Of its six hundred
thousand residents during his tenure.
It is needless to say that Mr. Palmisano enters upon
the Craftsmanship with the best wishes of those residents
They share common hope and belief that he will
deal with their legislative problems justly and with
sense.
Mr. Palmisano is thoroughly familiar with Washing
toms affairs.
long time resident of the neghboring city of Balti-
more, which he represents in the House, he has had
many opportunities to gain intimate knowledge of
conditions here.
This neighbory interest has been heightened by the
fact for the last ten years while serving in the House
he has been at least parttime resident of our COM
muny and by the further fact that during many years
he has served actively the Committee the District
of Columbia
Service as member or as chairman of the District
Committee is often referred to as "thankless job"
It isn't that
There plenty of thanks which come from the
hearts Of Washngtonians when the job is we'll done,
but it is true that the job carries political reward
It is service which many of greatest legislators
have performed earnestly and we'll, knowing that as
they have contributed to the upbuilding of this ma
tiona city they have justified the faith of their own
constituents in sending them here.
Representative Palmisano in assuming the chair
manship has both opportunity and obligation-an
opportunity to perform necessary service and an
obligation to deal considerably with the problems of
q voteless community
Mrs. Norton met the opportunity and satisfied the
obligation.
She retires from the Craftsmanship with the respect
and esteem of Washngtonians
