"the bill goes further than neces-
sary to accomplish the declared
Iobjectives when it authorizes the
person to whom the President S
Authority is delegated to exercise
general supervision over the ad-

Thus, regardless of the extent
of the Presidents authority in re-

the broad language quoted would
give general supervision in the ad-
ministration of every activity OF
the District to the person to whom
the Presidents authority is dele
gated"
