Infant Asylum Children

Several members of the British
Army delegation here who are lonely
because they can't spend Christmas
with their children will entertain
90 youngsters at st. AIMS Infant
Asylum with a British Christmas
"tea party" this afternoon.
A "faerie queen" played by Miss
Ella Mary Moore, a member OF the
delegation staff, will distribute gifts
instead of the traditional Santa
Claus because, it was felt, the
youngsters might find it a little
illogical for Santa to appear so
early.
Other feminine workers at the

and decorated the rooms for the
party at the institution.

For Improvements to

The bill increasing the District
gasoline tax from to cents gal
Ion is on its way to the President for
signature today, designed to help
finance a comprehensive 10-year
highway program here.
The Senate and House joined yes
terday in giving quick approval to
a conference agreement in which
the House dropped its proposed A.
cent tax and accepted the 1-cent
increase proposed by the Senate as
adequate in view OF the war emer-
gency, which will give rise to prior
ity problems on projects not essen
tial to defense.
Drafted to take effect January l,
the increase will add $l,500,000 to

start, will be available to meet the

! ton will allocate $2,000,000 out of
the fund for access roads in the De-
fense Highway Act to speed COM
pletion of these Potomac approaches
in time to accommodate the thou
sands of employees who will work in
the big new War Department Build
ing in Arlington County, Va.
Senator Burton, Republican, of
Ohio got the conference agreement
through the Senate without debate,
but in the House Representatives
Springer of Indiana and Reese of
Kansas deplored the failure of the
conference to agree on the 4-cent
rate.
They argued Washington should
pay a gas tax equal to the national
average of "A per cent and that
more revenue is needed. In opposi-
ton to this argument, 1t frequently
has been pointed out, however, that
the District of Columbia is almost
entirely urban territory, with most
streets already paved, and does not
have the hundreds of miles OF rural
roadways that stretch across the
States.
Bates Urges Haste.
Representative Bates, Republican,
of Massachusetts said he also fa-
vored the higher rate, but urged his
colleagues to adopt the Scent con-
