Unit Representation
In Federation

Members of the Burleith Citizens
Association last night voted that
the constitution and bylaws of the
Federation of Citizens Associations
be amended to allow only one dele
gate from each association on the
Federation's governing body.
John Gorrell, who suggested the
recommendation, said there is CON
siderable complaint among Fedora
ton delegates that some persons
exercise undue influence" He
pointed out that while there are
about IS member bodies, under the
present setup only 10 associations
may be represented in the cleo
tive offices and Is executive COM
mittees.
The Burleith citizens, first to take
such action, expressed the belief
that representation should be as
broad as possible. Mr.. Gorrell will
take the resolution before the Fed

The association unanimously in
dorsed the reappointment of Dis
trict Commissioner Guy Mason,
which awaits Senate confirmation.
Mr.. Mason has been subject to a
