showed time and time again
that no real reasons for oppo-
sition exist.
Why, then, has this right
been denied so long? The SIM
plest answer is that the Found
ing Fathers, in drafting the
Constitution in the 18th CEN
tury, simply failed to foresee
the curious anomaly of voteless
citizens which would be created
when they carved a Federal seat
of government out of the States
or else they decided to leave
the remedy to future genera
tions.
Omission Takes Effect
In 1890, a few years after the
Constitution was adopted, the
Congress accepted the 10-mile-
square District on the Potomac
banks from Maryland and Vir-
ginia. In the national elec-
tions of 1892 and 1896, resi-
dents here continued to vote
through the election machinery
established by the Constitution
for those States.
But when the Federal Gov
eminent took physical possess
sion in 1900, the District no
longer was part of the States,
and no machinery existed in
the Constitution for its resi-
dents after that date to par
ticipate in elections, or to be
represented in Congress. The

Suffrage Vote CIimoxes
16O-Yeor Effort Here

Congress final approval of
the constitutional amendment
giving Washingtonians the right
to vote for President and Vice
President climaxed last night a
drive which dates back to 1900
the year the Federal City was
established on the banks of the
Potomac.
In actual time this year,
the House and Senate required
the deceptively short period of
four months to approve the
amendment and send it to the
people of the so States for
ratification.
This period of enactment is
truly deceptive, for in back of
the Senate last night were 100
years of political evolution
during many of which the
citizens of the District of
Columbia waged an unending
campaign to end the disfran-
chiSement which exists nowhere
else in the Nation.
In all these years, never be-
fore had either the House or
the Senate had the opportunity
to vote on national suffrage for
the District.
No New Arguments
In the Senate debate, as in
the House earlier this week,
there were no new arguments
for granting this right of citi-
zenship, and virtually no oppo-
sition-for debate in commit
tees of Congress in years past

House Restores
Part Of Aid Cut
$500 Million Back
As Parties SquubbIe
By ROBERT X. WALSH

The House today tentatively
restored 5000 million of a $400
million committee cut in mill
tary assistance funds in the $3.3
billion foreign aid bill.
The 170-114 vote was subject
to possible reversal on a later

Democrats supported the

tional amendment permitting

Congress will send the

Upon ratification by three
quarters or a minimum of 38
legislatures, the amendment
will become part Of the basic

Endorsements must be made in

promised a concerted drive for
ratification in the coming year

Thus. prospects are strong
that in 1864 Washingtonians
will cast ballot along with all
other Americans for the first
time since the seat of govern
ment was established on the
banks of the Potomac in 1900.
F. ElWood Davis, chairman
of the civic drive for suffrage,
was quick to applaud the action
today in these words:
The Citizens Joint Com
mittee is most gratified by the
magnificent and historic action
taken by both houses of Con-
greSS
Unanimous support in the
House in agreeing to change
the number and title to that
of the Senate version was
splendid evidence of the grass
root desire to have the ConSti-
tuition amended to provide
machinery by which residents
of the District would be in

(This tactic in the House
debate Tuesday saved the

death by steering it away
from the Senate Judiciary
Committee onto the Senate
floor.)

Eisenhower
Seen Responsible
For Blocking His
Visit to Tokyo
BY MARVIN L. ARROWSMITH

by MARVIN l.. ARROWSMITH
Associated Press stan Writer
EN- ROUTE WITH EISEN-
HOVER, June IT. - 1t was
learned today that President
Eisenhower believes the Chi
neSe Communists, with the aim
of making anti-American prop
aganda, are responsible for
blocking his visit to Tokyo.
The President; sailing aboard
the cruiser st. Paul for For
mosa, is known to hold these
views:
The Chinese Communists
acted in much the same way
that Soviet Russia seized on the
incident of the U-2 spy plane to
wreck the summit conference.
1t is evident that all is not
we'll between the Soviet Union
and Red China.
Warm Reception Resented
The President believes Rus
sian and Chinese Communist
leaders are most unhappy
about the warm mass recep-
tionS he received in many
countries during his far-rang-
ing travels in the last 10
months.
On the basis of information
from we'll informed sources,
the President is convinced that
Nikita S. Khrushchev decided
he did not want him to visit
Moscow and thus yanked back
his invitation and said he was
doing so because of the Incl
dent involving the spy plane
downed near Sverdlovsk. The
President concluded that one
of the reasons underlying Mr..
KhruShchev'S actions at the
summit conference in Paris a
month ago was that the Soviet
premier did not want Mr.. Els
enhower to visit Moscow.
The President does not seem
to be particularly downhearted
or discouraged by cancellation
of the Tokyo visit. He feels the
warm reception he received in
Manila offset to some extent
the negative aspects of this
first visit to the Far East by
a United States President. And
he still believes there are bene-
fits to be gained from personal
diplomacy by an American
President.
SteamS Toward FOrmOsa
AS the President steamed
north toward the Nationalist
Chinese island fortress of For
mosa Chinese Communist guns
opened up on the offshore is
lands, 110 miles away from his
destination. Peiping Radio
said the gunnery was intended
to display contempt and
scorn" for the President.
But sticking to their self
imposed rule of firing at the
Quemoy area only on odd
numbered days, the Commu-
nists omitted any mention of
continued firing tomorrow,
while the President is IN For
mosa. They said they would
shoot some more Sunday, an
other odd-numbered day.
The United States 7th Fleet
kept unflagging vigil around
the presidential vessel and the
feet commander. Vice Admiral
Charles D. Griffin, had pre-
dicted the Communists might
we'll do something" further to
mar the Eisenhower trip, al
ready blighted by cancellation
of his visit to Japan. Admiral
Griffin added:

contemplate that the Chinese
Communists might we'll do
