The bill goes back to the House
for expected concurrence in the

Committee turned the budget
cutting knife on the House Itself
today but the slash from re-
quested funds for the next fiscal
year waAcomparatively mild. Ir
fact. the committee gave the
House almost 50 million more
than it had for The current fiscal
year.
The $78.47O,285 bill reported
out by the committee sliced q
total Of $2.2 million from originaI
requests for the legislative
branch and related agencies
such as the Library Of Congress
the Botanic Garden and the
Government Printing Office. Thi:
was a net reduction of $ll.6 mil
lion from 1857 fiscal year ap-
preparations.
| AS for the House funds recon-
mended for the coming fiscal
year. the $37. 927.705 approved
by the committee was only $751;
$50 less than budget requests
But it was 1896, 965 more thar
the House had for its direct
operating costs during the cur
rent fiscal year which ends June
80. Those figures do not include
approximately $12.8 million al
lotted TO the Architect OF the
Capitol for various construction
and maintenance items.
! Greenhouse Shift Deleted
That total is about S74l .OOC
below budget requests for the
coming fiscal year and $l5.6
million under appropriations au-
thorized for the current fiscal
year.
The biggest single reduction
in the bill resulted from the
deletion Of a proposed s587 ,0OC
for relocating Botanic Garden
greenhouses from their Capitol
Hill site TO the Poplar Point
nursery near the South Capitol
Street Bridge.
The bulk Of the $572, 900 cut
in House budget requests resulted
from a committee reduction OF
$500 900 in funds for employment,
of clerks by House members
This left the item at $l4.6 NIL
lion. the same as for the present
fiscal year. The committee also
trimmed $4,000 from the item
for hiring House committee en-
ployes. This left the total al
$2.2 million which is SI34.OOC
more than the 1857 allowance.
The bill provides no funds for
the proposed extension OF the
east front Of the Capitol. The
committee was advised that pre-
liminary plans and estimates for
that project are still under con-
sideration. The committee. how

In House Resolution
By ALEX r. PRESTON

In an unheralded move, Chair
man Mcmillan of the House
District Committee today called
for a three-phase investigation
by his group into these District
affairs:
/. Operation. administration
and enforcement of the Public
Works Act of 1854.
2. Operation, administration
and enforcement of the Revenue
Act of 1885,
3. Organization. management
operation and administration OF
the Public Health Department
including D. c. General Hospital
Chairman Mcmillan, Demo-
crat of South Carolina, said the
committee feels We need more
information than we have been
getting in all three fields"
Full Probe Specified
A strongly-worded House reso-
luton, which was sent to the
Rules Committee, directs the
House District Committee "tc
conduct a full and complete in
veStigation and study" in the
three areas listed.
The committee would be au-
thorized to sit and act while the
House is in session anywhere
in the United States to obtain in
formation embraced by the reso-
luton.
Until the resolution came tC
light, no request for such an in.
Quiry had been heard from any
one associated with the District
Committee.
Mr.. Mcmillan was asked by g
reporter if he had any specific
complaints about failure to OBJ
tain information in any of the
three fields of inquiry. He sale
no. he had not.
However" he added. II have
considerable correspondence in
our files indicating that the stu
alton is not exactly as it is re-
ported to be in the District Of
Columbia
Cites Criticisms
He referred to certain criti-
cisns Of the Health Department
by the House Appropriations Sub.
committee in charge of the Dis
trict budget. In a separate re-
port, the subcommittee was
highly critical of the operations
Of the Health Department, for
merly headed by Dr. Daniel l.
Seckinger and now headed by DR..
Daniel L. Finucane.
MY files" Mr.. Mcmillan said.

site effect" To make certain that
the chairman believed the Health
Department has been efficiently
operated. a reporter asked him
point blank if that is what he
meant.
He replied that it was and

health laws.
AS an outgrowth of the Ap-
preparations Committee COM
plants against District General
Hospital. a $4,000 facilities
study by a consulting firm has
been ordered.
Mr.. Mcmillan said he believed
the District Committee should be
given a first-hand report on
progress being made under the
l0-year public works program for
the District. A similar report
should be handed in on the Dis
trict's new tax legislation under
which revenues were increased
in 1856 by raising rates and
lowering exemptions from $4,000
to $1,000.

He said about 10 per cent Of
the expected increased traffic
by 1880 will use the bridge,
which may be completed in
1860, and the Circumferential
Highway.
U. s. to Bear Costs
The bypass as proposed is
about 81 miles long, Ia miles
Of it elevated along the water
front. All Of the construction
costs, Mr.. Cahill said, would be
borne by the Federal Govern
ment. About so per cent Of the
land acquisition cost would be
paid for by the city for two
small sections north Of First
street. he said.
Under present law. the city
would have to pay all the ac-
QUESTION costs south Of First
street. Most Of this would con-
sist of air rights. the cost Of
which would have to be deter
mined as are rights Of ease
ment for the laying of pipes or
cables, he said.
The project. Mr.. Cahill de-
clared. is Of the utmost i'm
portance1 to the city. City mer-
chants have supported the
project because it would re-
.lieve congestion from Washing
ton street, one Of the principal
commercial routes. and ease

dents.
William B. Hurd, president Of

which borders on the proposed
route, said members have ia

flc advantages. but hesitate to
support 1t because it would tend
