Debate Favored
On D. zoninq

A plea for widespread public
debate on Washington's coming
problems was made yesterday
before the Committee of One
Hundred of the Federal City
George S Cater. of the con-
sultant staff now conducting a
zoning survey in the District,
said that this, rather than quiet
discussion by a few" is essential
if the city's coming needs are
to be met effectively.
Mr.. Cater said that even if
the debate turned into contro-
'versies, it would be better for the
future of coming than would in
difference or Darkroom consider
alton of the subject by few
groups and individuals.
Mr.. Cater of the consultant
firm of Harold N. Lewis, outlined
progress of the survey for the
committee. He admitted that
much contained in the five in
term reports already issued has
been complex, and loaded with
detail. He said. however, that
ultimately the consultants ex-
poets to produce a "succinct
wrap-up outlining major findings
and conclusions. This. he said
should make an ideal basis for
public debates.
Federal City Committee men,
bers, who listened closely to Mr.
Caters exposition. unanimously
voted to hold a special session
May Is when the coming expert
will analyze first draft of pro-
poed new coming regulations and
coming maps. These are undei
preparation now, and may be
released next week.
A full fiedged public hearing
is slated for next fall after civic
and other groups have had {
chance to hold informal public
sessions on various aspects Of
the consultants' proposals.
