ABC Says
Cities Rate 8
TVChunneIs

The American Broadcasting
Co. wants expanded television
service in cities with only two
channels.
Alfred R. Beckman, the vice
president in charge of ABCs
Washington Office, told a Sem
ate Commerce Subcommittee
yesterday that viewers in two
channel cities were not able
to see go per cent of the public
service and special telecasts
presented by the three TV net
works"
He urged the committee to
prod the Federal Communica-
tons Commission to assign adj
ditional channels to major two.
channel markets.
Once the stations are as
signed, Mr.. Beckman suggested,
authority should be granted
to place them on the air under
trusteeship arrangements in
order to bring immediate serv-
ice to the public in those areas.
Among the cities listed by
the ABC official as needing
added TV service are Grand
Rapids Kalamazoo, Louisville,
Syracuse, Rochester, Birming-
ham, Raleigh-Durham, Char
lotte, Providence, Jacksonville
and Wheeling -Steubenville.

land Senator BealD, and my
self, does not change the con-
stitutional provision whic h
leaves within the Congress ex-
elusive legislative authority
over the District of Columbia,
but it gives the District of Co
lumbia citizens an opportunity
to have representation in the
Congress, which has this ex-
elusive legislative Jurisdiction.
That is why to that extent this
proposal would give the people
of the District of Columbia q
voice in their own government.
The Congress would continue
to have exclusive legislative
jurisdiction over the District
of Columbia; and the people of
the District of Columbia would
then, for the first time, have
real representation in the Con-
gress. :.

posal is beyond question to any
one who will make a compre-
hensive study of the situa-
ton.

Answer to Critics
OF u. S. Cited

Senator Fong, Republican Of
Hawaii: Mr.. President, I am in
agreement with the remarks
Of the illustrious Senator from
South Dakota. During the ad-
journment Of Congress I had
the pleasure Of visiting IA
countries in the Far East.
Everywhere I went, people In
the Far East remarked to me
that America heretofore had
certainly preached much con-
corning democracy but many
times fell short Of what 1t
preached. My election to the
Congress of the United States
was in a measure an answer
to them that we do believe in
self determination, and that
we practice democracy as we
preached it.

the District of Columbia the
right to vote for President and

Taxed, Yet Not
REPRESENTED

Nothing is more deeply i'm
bedded in the traditional theory
Of our government than the
proposition that taxation with
out representation is tyranny.
The people of the District of
Columbia pay taxes far in ex-
cess Of the amount of taxes
paid by many States; and, as
the Senator from New York has
pointed out, the people of the
District of Columbia pay taxes
which gross more than the
total amount of taxes paid by
many States. Yet the people
of the District Of Columbia have
no voice in their own govern
merit. So certainly in the Dis
trict Of Columbia there is taxa
ton without representation.
Furthermore, as the Senator
from New York has we'll pointed
out, the District of Columbia
has provided many soldiers to
the Armed Forces Of the Ma
ton. Certainly to be called
upon to fight for ones country
and then be denied an oppor-
tunity to participate in its gov
eminent by means of voting is
grossly unfair.
In that connection let me
point out that a few years ago
the Congress passed a law which
provided that an alien who had
served in the Armed Forces OF
the Nation would thereby ac-
quire the rights Of citizenship.
II it be true that Congress once
decided that it was just that
an alien who served in the
Armed Forces should be granted
citizenship upon the completion
of his service-and that step

Only Practical
Solution Now

Senator Case, Republican of
South Dakota: I have some
what reluctantly come to the
conclusion that the only prac-
tical possibility of affording an
opportunity for the residents
Of the District Of Columbia to
vote in the reasonably near
future is through the proce-
dure here proposed; that is. to
give them the right and the
opportunity to vote for dele
gates or Representatives who
would be members of the House
Of Representatives and who
would have such powers as Con-
gress itself might see At to give
them, and. by the same token.
have q right to vote for presi-
Dental electors on the same
basis as they would if they were
represented by Representatives
and Senators in the Congress.
But I go somewhat further
than perhaps does the Senator
from New York in believing
that this amendment will mean
an effective step toward self
government for the people of
the District of Columbia. The
Constitution provides that the
Congress shall have exclusive
legislative jurisdiction over the
District of Columbia. No home
rule bill ever proposed or de-
vised has been able in the abb
sence OF q constitutional
amendment, to get around that
existing constitutional provi-
sion. Every home rule bill which
we examine contains, some
where within it, a provision
which recognizes that Congress
could override any action
which might be taken by a Dis
trict OF Columbia local legisla-
tive body, whether a city coun-
ell or what-not. In any case,
exclusive legislative authority
over the District of Columbia
rests with the Congress.
The amendment which the
Senator from New York has
submitted. on behalf of him
self, the Senator from Mary

Excerpts From Senate Deboe Amendment Washington Suffrage

time. I am very happy to be
a cosponsor of the amendment.
The Senator from New York
and I advocate home rule for
the District of Columbia, and
the Senator from Nevada (Mr.
Bible) chairman Of the Com
mittee on the District of CO.
lumbia. has long advocated it.
While the pending proposal
does not go as far as the mea-
sure the Senator from Nevada
and I have been advocating,
it is a step in the right direc-
ton.
There is an old saying that
one must crawl before one
walks. and one must walk be-
fore one runs. This amendment
will accomplish the first objec-
tive; namely, to give some
100000 disenfranchised people
the right to be first-class citi-
zens.
Certainly the Senator from
New York (Mr. Keating), in
sponsoring this proposal and
presenting it at this time. is
doing something which Is
praiseworthy. I hope the SEN
ate will agree to the amend
ment.
Mr.. Heating. I am grateful
to my colleague from Mary
land, who has been definitely
instrumental in trying to give
to the people of the District
OF Columbia a greater measure
OF control over and conduct of
their own affairs.
OF course, we face problems
in the other body. However,
hope the problem with refer
ence to the constitutional
amendment, which will be con-
sidered by a different committee
in the other body, will not be
so serious as the one with ref
erence to home rule apparently
is.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-02-05
Three Stains
On Democracy

Let me recall a few facts
which have an important bear
ing on this subject. The first
one is that the population Of
the District of Columbia ex-
ceeds the population of IL
States which have full repre-
sentation rights in both the
House and Senate. These States
are New Hampshire, Vermont,
North Dakota, South Dakota,
Delaware, Montana, Idaho,
Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico.
Alaska and Hawaii. Indeed, the
District of Columbia has more
residents than the States Of
Alaska, Nevada, and Wyoming,
combined. These States includ-
ing their Senators, have nine
Representatives in Congress;
the District of Columbia has
none. p
The second fact is that the
residents of the District Of Co.
lumbia pay well over $3.50 mil
lion annually in Federal taxes.
This is more tax money than
is contributed by the residents
of any one of Is States having a
total representation of 148
members in the Congress. Tax
alton without representation Is
still the lot of our local citizens.
Fact No. 3 is that more than
100000 men and women who
lived in the District of Column
bia served in our armed forces
during World War II. This was
a greater contribution in man
power to the defense Of our
Nation than was made by IA
States. Many of these brave
souls made the supreme sacri-
flee in our country's battles. It
is shameful that these coura-
geous men and women who
fought and died for freedom
could not enjoy its essential
quality in their own homeland.
These are shameful facts.
Here are several hundred thou
sand Americans who are called
upon to pay taxes, to serve in
our armed forces, and to fulfill
all the other obligations of citi-
zenship, but who are denied
one Of its most sacred privileges.
How much longer shall we
permit this stain on our democ-
racy to remain uncleansed?
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-02-05
Opposes Waiting
For House to Act

Mr.. Heating. I entirely agree
with that statement. On thi'
subject ! think I share COM
pletely, the views Of my
distinguished colleague from
Nevada. I strongly supported
the home rule bill. I hope that
bill will be acted on by the
other body, but I think it would
be a mistake for us to hold
up a proposed constitutional
amendment at this time while
awaiting action in the other
body. Let us go down both
roads, with the hope that even
tually the citizens of the Dis
trict of Columbia will have the
right to vote for President, Vice
President, and Representatives
in Congress, and will also be
given a measure of fuller con-
duct OF their own affairs, which
incidentally, will relieve US Of
many burdens with which, in
my judgment, we really should
not be concerned.
cannot leave that subject
without saying to my colleague
from Nevada how much all OF
US appreciate and admire the
dedicated service which he has
given to the District of Column
bia and to its problems. He has
placed q mark of distinction
upon service on the District OF
Columbia Committee by the
way he has handled its af-
fairs. =.
Senator BealI, Republican of
Maryland: Mr.. President,
wish to congratulate the Sena-
tor from New York for bring
ing up the amendment at this
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-02-05
Principle Cited
In2 Provisions

This is not a mere matter of
numbers, however, but basic
ally a matter of principle. We
cannot justify the denial of the
right of a citizen to vote be-
cause Of his residence in the
District of Columbia any more
than we can Justify the denial
of the right to vote because q
citizen has failed to pay a fee.
Both conditions are entirely
inconsistent with our demo-
cratic system. Both deserve
prompt determination.
One other thing should be
made clear. This is a right-to-
vote amendment. not a self
government amendment. I
strongly supported the home
rule bill when it was before the
Senate last year, and I hope
the other body will proceed
with dispatch to complete
action on that matter. What we
are dealing with here today,
however, is something quite
different. This amendment
deals only with national repre-
sentation. :.
