West Rules Activities
OF Recreation Board
Outside DC. Are Legal

Corporation Counsel Vernon E
West has ruled that present activi-
ties Of the District Recreation Board
which take personnel into nearby
Maryland and Virginia on tours,
hikes and entertainment shows are
legal under language in the annual
appropriation bills, it was learned
yesterday.
Nevertheless, to remove all doubt,
language in the 1947 appropriation
bill will be changed to harmonic
with wording of the act of 1910
which created the board and de-
fined its activities.
Difficulty, according to the board,
is that while the act of 1910 author
ICES it to provide recreation "in and
for" the District, the annual appro-
priation bill allots funds for "op-
Grafton and maintenance of recre-
alton facilities in the District of
Columbia"
Auditor A. r. Pilkerton, who must
certify that the money spent by
District departments is spent for
the authorized purpose. has also
concurred that the current activi-
ties across the Districts boundaries
are legal. District Budget Officer
Walter l.. Fowler, however, who is
also member of the board, said
he would change the budget Ian
guage to conform to that of the
act of 1910.
The proposed change, 1t was en-
phasized, will not allow the board
to acquire realty, permanent i'm
provements or property beyond the
physical confines. 1t is designed,
according to board spokesman, to
protect from challenge the salaries
of persons supervising programs
that carry beyond the District.
The board currently supervises
hikes, tours and picnics to points
such as Jessup- Blair, Sligo Park
way. Silver Spring and Garrett
Park, in Maryland; Great Falls in
both Virginia and Maryland; Mount
Vernon and Chopawamsic Recrea-
ton area in Virginia. 1t also pro-
vides dancing partners for armed
service personnel at nearby camps
and variety shows for military hos
pitfalls nearby.
Although the Commissioners ap-
proved the plan to amend the ap-
preparation bill wording. Commits
sioner Guy Mason voted no" Mr.
Mason said he thought the expendi-
ture ~of District funds should be
limited only to the District. He
said he objected to the District
furnishing dancing partners at
Quantico, at District expense, now
that the war is over.
