National Representation
For District of Columbia
BY THOMAS J. GROOM,

President District Bankers Association
and Vice President Bank Of Commerce
& Savings
Every citizen of Washington should
go to the polls on Saturday and vote
on two questions which may mean
much to the future of Washington.
For years leading citizens, civic Or
CARNATIONS and others have been
waging determined fight to obtain
for Washingtonians the right enjoyed
by every other citizen of the country
and right certainly intended by the
trainers of the ConStitution-the right
to vote and to govern. We owe it to
ourselves and our fellow citizens to
take advantage of this opportunity.
I feel that the citizens of the Dis
trict of Columbia should have repre-
sentation in the National Congress.
While in most instances the members
of the Congress appointed to handle
our affairs have been fair in their
recommendations of legislation affect
ing Washington, there have been
times when there has been a lack of
lens or the time to devote to them
The members of Congress are elected
by voters of their respective districts
or States and their principal duty is
to attend to the business and welfare
of their constituents and to legisla-
ton affecting the country at a whole;
therefore, to them the District of COL
umbia has been a mere stepchild
Their many other duties tax their full
time and energy and they should be
relieved Of problems of local nature
The District of Columbia, from the
standpoint of population, is as large
or larger than some of the States. 1t
has citizens in every walk of life. 1t
has businesses and industries similar
to many of the States, and there is no
reason why these citizens who con-
tribute to the national income in the
form Of taxes, who contribute their
lives in time of war and who con-

cratic candidate for mayor of Wash
ington, who was running against
Sayles J. Bowen, Republican.
Shortly after the election, Mr.. Ma
honey recalled with a smile, it was
announced that his candidate, Given,
had won. A big parade was organized
in the Navy Yard area of Given sup
porters. A band paraded to Given's
home, congratulated him, and gave
him a noisy and rousing reception.
To their CONSERVATION, the next
| day, Mr.. Mahoney recalled, it was an
nounced that instead of winning
their candidate had lost, and Bowen
had been elected mayor.
There was trouble at the District
Building when the newly elected
mayor attempted to take office, ac-
cording to accounts in The Star of
that date. The mayors Office was
locked against Bowen, but a locksmith
was called in and forced the door.
Bowen was installed June 8, 1868.
Votes were cast in Washington after
Mr.. Mahoney cast his first ballot, he
said, but he had been appointed to
the police force, and never got around
to voting again while the vote was
available.
Mr.. Mahoney expressed pleasure
at voting both for national representa-
tion and for local suffrage Its time
for District people to hold District
Offices" he said. instead of allowing
them to be filled by outsiders ap-
pointed by members of Congress from
distant States"
Mr.. Mahoney's age is over 90, but he
can't be sure just how much. In the
family Bible the entry shows clearly
that John Ross Mahoney" was born
January 10, but the year is confusing.
1t is written either 1846 or lS47. The
last figure is double, with either the s
superimposed over the or the over
the 6.
Mr.. Mahoney is national secretary
| OF the Independent Order of Recha-
bites, temperance organization, and a
member of Eagle Tent, No. /, the first
tent" of the order.

tribute some of the best brains of the
country should not be represented by
vote in the management of the
country. Taxation without representa-
ton was never intended even in a
Federal district. The people of Wash
ington are American citizens and
should be entitled to all national rights
and privileges and should have the
right to express their approval or dis
approval not only of the decisions Of
Congress, but also of the local legis-
lation enacted by Congress affecting
their very existence.
In expressing the view that I favor
national representation for the Dis
trict Of Columbia express my indi-
vidual views and not those of any or
ganization which I happen to repre-
sent as an officer.
