He had ground crew training at

mission to clarity it's role in the
city's future development. begin
ming with change in its title and
an increase in membership from lC
to IL, was recommended by the
Budget Bureau today in report
submitted to the President.
Gen. U. s. Grant, 81, chairman
OF the commission, who said the re-
port had his unqualified indorse-
ment and that steps would be taken
to confer with the Budget Bureau
in drafting legislation to be pre-
sented in Congress for enactment.
The survey was undertaken at the
request of former Chairman Fred
eric A. Delano at the time of his
retirement.
Lengthy Document.
The lengthy document, signed by
Director Harold D. Smith of the
bureau, urges that Federal and Dis
trict agencies be required to consult
the commission as a central guide
on all questions affecting the gen.
eral plan for the city's development.
Under the present setup this is not
required and various projects have
been initiated without the commits
sion's knowledge and later revised
at its suggestion.
The new name would be the
National Capital Planning Commits
sion, emphasizing its essential plan
ming role, although it still would
retain its park, parkway and play
ground land acquisition functions
and would continue to advise Fed
eral and District agencies on prop
erty purchases. 1t also would con-
tinue to assist State ands local
planning agencies to foster co-ordi-
mated development in the National
Capital area.
The revamped membership would
increase lay members from four to
five. A representative of the Fed
eral Works Agency would be substi-
tuted for the chief of the Forest
Service and the architect of the
Capitol would be added. Thomas S.
Settle, secretary of the commission
explained that the Forest Service.
which has rendered outstanding
service, no longer controls any city
parks and has no role in planning.
Congress Representation.
1t also provides that the chairmen
OF the Senate and House District
Committees may designate members
OF their committees to represent
them at commission meetings when
they are unable to attend personally.
The report recommends that the

present Zoning Advisory Council,

sion s.: e on mattsrs o{ gsnsrsl interest
