WASHINGTON. May 18. (UP)j
An attempt to include farm relief
in President RooSevelt's So, l54,-
425, 900 recovery bill threatened
to precipitate a bitter debate on
the senate floor between urban
and agrarian senator's today.
Consideration of the bill was
complicated by the farm issue as
the senate appropriations subcom-
mittee prepared to conclude its
hearings with testimony by treas
ury officials.
Proposal to link farm relief with
the general recovery program was
made by Senator Richard B. Rus

Mr.. Buchanan struck his
audience a little funny IN
his, ANNUAL address when ne
talked Of the many good
things the community had
and those it needed but de.
clared' the greatest need of
ali was "a campaign that
would result in 1000 more
bath tubs to supplement the
present facilities of the nm
keepers Of city and county
There are r. and 70
room boarding houses with
only one bath room" assert
ed Mr.. Buchanan, who point
ed toiuut that under such con
ditions such places could not
expect to be favored with
jhigher-clas patronage. mr.;
not only pointed
out. the need of such factll-
ties as an obligation and re-
'sponsibility but an opportun-
ity for an increased income
by means of higher rates.
Mrs. Cathryn Wiseman,
secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce. says inquiries
from those seeking accom-
modations reveal the need
of more private baths in the
boarding houses.
This condition, seems to
have existed a long time. [
found it so in my Chamber
of Commerce work as far
back as 10 years ago when
most Of our boarding houses
and smaller hotels were
newer and more modern
than they are now.
Many tourists expressed a
desire for a private bath
whether they were stopping
in private homes, small or
large boarding houses. They
manifested a willingness TO
pay an increased rate for
such accommodations. | sue

D. {. City Council,
Elected by People,
Asked by Group
Stanton Park Citizens
Seek Voice in Tuxes
And Budget

Passage by the coming session o.
Congress of an act authorizing
the election by citizens of the Dis
trict of a city council was asked
In a resolution passed at a meeting
last night of the Stanton Parh
Citizens Association.
Offered by Harry N. Stull, former
president Of the group. the resolu-
ton further stated that the council
should have well-defined duties
among which would be the duty OF
passing on the items making ur
the Districts annual budget, to-
gether with the duty of recon-
mending to Congress all necessary
legislation designed to raise funds
necessary to meet the approved
budget.
System Held Unsatisfactory.
Commenting on his resolution, Mr.
Stull said that, despite the best
the District Commissioners have
been able to do thus far under
very discouraging circumstances
Washington was still without q
satisfactory form of city govern
ment
There is only one logical way
to handle the budget. Mr.. Stull con-
tinued, and that is by the election
OF a person by the District who
can look after the Districts own
interests. This should be given q
trial at least, he added.
Mr.. Stull concluded by saying that
about 100000 people here have no
voice in the makeup of the budget,
yet contribute to it as taxpayers.
On motion by William j. Bartle,
secretary, the association opposed
the site Of the Thomas Jefferson
Memorial as tending to crowd" the
Tidal Basin and because it threat
ened removal of the Japanese cherry
trees.
Enforcement of regulations gov
erning bicycles was approved, but
opposition was voted plan to
charge a nominal fee for licensing
Of bicycles.
Supports Pedestrian Control.
The association voted approval Of
a suitable form of pedestrian con-
troll in congested areas.
Curtis Chadwick, president, ap-
pointed the following committee
chairmen:
Paul w. Moores. membership; Mr..
Stull. public utilities: w. E. Monroe,
