A bill to increase d. c. Transit
Systems profits has been intro
duced by Chairman Mcmillan
of the House District Commit
tee.
The legislation would guar
antee the company a rate of
return Of at least 6l2 per cent.
The last profit formula set
for the transit system by the

Transit Commission called for
a 4.87 per cent return.
In dollars, Mr.. McMillan's
bill would increase the COM

The company's current con-
gressional franchise states that

chancery operations to a more

Mr.. Springer's statement

chanceries from residential

At the hearing before q

THE GALLERY event be-
gan with a conference in
the board of trustees room
before the arrival of the
youngsters.
Eight women guides were
sitting around the table
where Chief Justice Warren,
ex officio chairman of the
gallery's trustees, usually
presides.
DR.. Sites, a tall NOUS
tached man with the selling
personality of a professional
educator, asked about the
Saturday architectural tour.
Mrs. Nash, a tall slender
woman of striking beauty,
said that the pupils were at
least making out that they
were interested in the ar
chitecture Of the embassies,
the Islamic Center and the
Washington Cathedral, be-
cause they all wanted to go
on the final tour next Sat
urday-DulleS Airport.
They do not get credits,
she said, but their attend
ance goes on their scholastic
records.
DR.. Sites then began to
tell them about the paint
ings they were to show the
teen-agers and suggest
what to tell them. Baroque,
he said, was characterized
by consciousness, color appeal
and movement, frequently
in the direction of heaven.
He felt that as far as the
gallery's paintings could IL
lustrate it, baroque began
with Raphael's st. George
saving the princess by STAY
ing the dragon.
This, he said, was COM
missioned by the Duke OF
Urbino, who had been made
a knight of the Garter.
It was to be a present
for King Henry VIII, who
had so honored him.
DR.. Sites mentioned
that st. George, mounted on
a white palfrey, was wear
ing the ceremonial garter
Just above his knee.
''How did this legendary
Eastern saint Of the early
church become the patron
saint Of En- CLAN d?" he
asked, and then gave the
aflswer-"The Crusades."
