Income Data Sought.
Those questions are on the list

along with others dealing with the
marital status, race, sex, age and

Every fifth person is being asked
what his income is-a question
which has prompted vigorous Re-
publican criticism in Congress.

collected at the request of business
groups and others.

House Bill Would Give
District S7,218,00O in
U. 5. Aid for Highways

Federal aid of $500 900 would
be provided the District in each
of the 1852 and 1853 fiscal years
for highway improvement under
a bill approved yesterday by the
House Public Works.
/ The measure goes to the House
floor for action. 1t carries $50
million for Federal highway con-
struction throughout the country
/ OF the total ALLEGATION to the
District, s3.104,000 would have to
be matched by the city. But
under new provision in the
measure. s505.00O for District
roads in the interstate system
would be advanced on a more lib
eral basis. Based on a formula
in the bill, the city probably would
be called on to put UP only about
Is cents on the dollar.
The ALLEGATIONS have been CAL
culated by a formula based on
census statistics, so are subject
to change when the 1850 census
figures become available.
Chairman Wilmington of the
Public Works Committee plans to
ask the House Rules Committee
soon for action to give the big
bill early consideration on the
House floor.
After Congress approves the
Federal-aid bill. funds will have
to be appropriated before they
become available.
The tentative ALLEGATION for Viz
ginia is $10,146.00O each of the
two years, and for Maryland, S.
$4,000.
John N Robertson, District di-
rector of highways, said the back
log of highway construction prof.
ects includes many on which the
funds could we'll be used. No spe-
cific list has been prepared yet for
1852 and 1858, he said. But among
the major projects hoped for by
the District are the proposed un-
derpass at Washington Circle and
the controversial bridge over the
Anacostia River at East Capitol
street. This latter project still is
in dispute before Congress.
