Under the $2l, 10000 authorization

Bell Refuses Deputy's Post.
The move came as 1t was learned
that Daniel w. Bell president Of
the American Security & Trust Co.,
has turned down the $17 ,500-a-year
job as deputy to Mr.. Hoffman In the
new agency.
Mr.. Bell is understood to have
been asked by President Truman to
take the post. But he Is said to have
replied that he felt he already had
spent "a years in Government serv-
ice and should not be called on to
return.
Others mentioned for the job are
Ferdinand Eberstadt, former War
Production Board official; Robert H
Hinckley, former Civil Aeronautics
Authority head. and jess Larson
War Assets Administration chief.
Mr.. Hofman's ohice refused COM
ment on q report from Boston that

Speaker Martin told reporters last
night that, while he was not COM

1T appeals to me as very pro-

II rather think it will go

The revised bill, carrying so
changes from the pre-hearing ver-
sion but still providing for an elect

House is not in session today.
Both sponsors and opponents
were counting votes In the COM
mittee, but there was no reliable
indication Of sentiment. since at
least nine of the "a members are
refusing to commit themselves.
Representative Davis. Democrat
of Georgia, left no doubt as to his
stand. He said that, If the District
government ever were put into the
hands of the people who would run
it under home rule. "the National
Capital would not be fit for buz-
yards to fly over"
The District, he said, was estab-
lished as a seat of the Federal
Government, where there would be
no conflict with any other govern
mental jurisdiction.
Washington is the gathering
place of radicals, Communists, near
Communists and riff-raff of all
types" he declared. ITO put the
operation of the seat of Govern
ment into the hands Of radicals
who are always very alert to exer-
else the voting privilege, when good
people are indifferent, would create
a situation that would be intoler-
able"

was Representative O'Hara, Repub-

was still "in the gray zone" since
he had not studied the plan enough.
