and they remained to enjoy an en-
tertaining vaudeville show. circus

and other sports.
The day was balmy, and some
of the frolicking businessmen spent
part of the afternoon in the Chesa-
peake Bay. while others engaged in
various outdoor games.
As usual. so many were lured to
the resort by the prospect of
planked shad and all the trim
mings that two separate dinners
were staged, the first at 11::3O am.
and the second at 2 pm. The vaude-
vile show, featuring professional
talent from Philadelphia, was staged

District Supply Bill
Hearings Due 10 End
By Middle Of Week
Health Department Needs
Will Be Taken Up at
Tomorrow's Sessions

The 1910 District supply bill may
be ready for action by the Senate
Appropriations Committee before
the end of this week, with subcom-
mittee hearings likely to be COM
pleted within two or three days.
When Chairman Overton re-
sumes hearings tomorrow morning
the needs of the Health Department
will be taken up, followed by re-
sumption of the testimony of spokes-
men for civic organizations.
When the hearings are over the
task Of the subcommittee will be to
decide how many of the budget items
the House eliminated should be re-
stored. The House made a re-
duction of s750,OO0 from budget es-
Inmates chargeable to the general
fund, which still totalled $40,750 900
Counting highway and water ex-
penses, which are financed separate
ly out of motor vehicle taxes and
water rents, the grand total OF the
House bill was $46,915 900.
The District would face a small
deficit under the House bill, even
with a continuation of the $1.75 real
estate rate. on the basis OF the
present s5,OOO,OO0 Federal payment,
and if Congress does not pass the
new tax program with a broadened
base.
In addition to requests of civic or
ganizations for restoration Of various
House cuts. the Budget Bureau a
few days ago submitted supplemental
estimates for S234,4 ,440 more, mostly
for the Districts share on nom
construction w. P. A. projects. The
Senate subcommittee also has given
some consideration to larger school
building program, to replace some
of the buildings that are 40 or SO
years old.
Strong testimony has been pre-
sented to the Senate group in favor
of placing the proposed National
Guard Armory at the terminus OF
East Capitol street, instead OF in the
Southwest section, as directed by
the House. 1t has been pointed out
that the Government already owns
nearly all of the East Capitol street
site, whereas the House bill calls
for acquisition of a site in the South
west. The National Capital Park
and Planning Commission and the
Commissioners have united in favor
ing East Capitol street.
