'Donohue Says District
Needs More Equitable
Federal Financing

Congressional approval of the
Addison public works program
alone would not solve the basic
problem which led to the present
need for vast municipal improve

iDonohue said last night.
The situation outlined in the
Addison report, Mr. Donohue said
in his weekly broadcast over Sta
ton WWDC. developed over 2e
years in which Congress avoided
its financial responsibility to the
District"

portance of the Addison program
the Commissioner said he wanted
ito point out that failure to solve
the basic problem would only leave
the way open for another such
situation in the future.

Mr.. Donohue said he believed
this basic. problem was to have
Congress understand its fiscal re-
sponsibility to the District. Other
wise, he said. the remedy would be
like curing a sore arm caused by
an internal ailment without cur
ing the ailment itself"
