Fund FormuIu
Clears Hurdle
In Senate

President Kennedy's flexible
formula to increase the Federal
share of running the Nations
Capital cleared the Senate Dis
trict Committee today.
The committee reported the
$50 million annual Federal pay
ment and 1925 million Federal
loan limit pill in a form almost
Isure to force a Senate House
conference.
The House already had re-
lected the Kennedy formula and
substituted flat $45 million
payment and $3.50 million loan
i The Senate committee took
the House payment bill and
wrote into it both the payment
and loan proposals of President
Kennedy. Passage by the Senate
will send a single revenue meas
ure back to the House, which
dealt with the payment and
loan in separate bills.
Bible Seeks Action
Senate Committee Chairman
Bible said he was hopeful for
a prompt floor vote. His COM
mitteemen voted, 4-to-1, fol
the White House package.
Senator Dominick, Republi-
can Of Colorado, registered the
sole opposition.
The Senator would agree to
the dollar amount yielded by
the formula, it was understood,
but he took issue with the for
mula itself.
President Kennedy would
gear the Federal contribution
to the District to the amount
Of property and income taxes
the Federal Government would
pay, If taxable, to the city
The loan limit would equal 6
per cent Of the 10-year aver
age assessed value of real and
personal property in the Dis
trict.
Opposes Method
The Colorado Republicans
position is the same as the
District @. o. P. in agreeing to
yield but not the method of the
formula. 1t also parallels some
House resistance to the formula
on the basis that it would set
a precedent for Federal pay
ments to the States.
Senator Morse, Democrat OF
Oregon, withheld his amend.
ment to give schools over the
next six years $3.50 million Of
any money borrowed from the
Federal government, regardless
of other school revenues.
This is not the time" the
Senator said. I'VE ought to con-
centrate on the Presidents for
mula now"
Budget Hearings Wait
He is ready to bulwark the
revenue bill on the Senate floor
with his school amendment II
the Senate support Of the Ken
lnedy formula does not survive
negotiations with the House.
Senate hearings on the city
budget for the current year are
awaiting Congressional actor
on the revenue authorization
So a debate and vote on the
payment and loan is expected
perhaps within days, and GER
tainly within weeks.
The House Appropriations
Committee has recommended
a $50 million payment, but
promised full consideration
of added revenue requests II
authorized by Congress.

The
Rambler
j.. Visits
AMcdeI Man
BY JOHN McKELWAY

In 1890, a young mechanic
from Illinois settled in
Washington and opened up
a bicycle shop.
His name was PAUL Corr,
a perfectionist.
BY the early 1900s he was
building what he called
Corr Specials" remembered
today as a fine piece OF
machinery and capable of
transporting portly police
men.
He was able to sell a batch
of specials to the Police De-
partment - $3.50 apiece -
which were used for patrol
work and to escort people
like President Taft up the
Avenue.
BY 1887, Mr.. Corr, then
located in the 800 block of
Ninth street NV, was still
in business - although the
police and others were using
a different type of trans
portation. His shop was long
and narrow and dark. Mr..
Corr had as few light bulbs
burning as possible in an
effort to economic.
1t was in that same year
that his son Joined him in
the shop, began making
changes and gradually
taking over the business.
Today, you can't find a
bicycle in Coor's, now across
the street at 813.
II was in the wholesale
grocery business in the
Middle West" the son, also
named Paul, recalled re-
Gently" trying to help in
dependent grocers meet the
challenge of the chain stores.
I think that's where I
learned merchandising and
something about life"
Mr.. Corr, now in his fifties,
a dapper, aggressive man,
joined his father in business
reluctantly. He lacked
mechanical aptitude and II
didn't want to get into over
alls and work on some
bicycle in the back of the
shop"
But, in 1887, he lost his
shirt in the stock market
and a few other ventures
and the bicycle shop was
the last resort.

going very well for the store
ever since.
The interesting thin g
about Mr.. Corr is that he is

bit of the promoter thrown
in. He has yet to build one
model of anything, although
his store apparently stocks
everything from delicate
strips of balsa wood to the
beautifully made Japanese
model locomotives which sell
for about the same price as
the original Corr Special"
To soup up interest in
model airplanes, he used to
stage model shows out at

there himself.

Authority at Issue

The court argument today is
over which government is in
legal authority-the commits
sion headed by Mr.. Hanes or
the new mayor council setup
headed by Mr.. Boutwell,.
Birmingham voters decided
last November. although the
Hanes regimes terms were not
to expire until 1865. to substi-
tute the mayor-council form Of
government for their old city
commission form.
The Boutwell,. forces claim
they were entitled TO take office
in April by virtue Of that vote.
The attention moved here
from a Birmingham still rela-
lively quiet. The city was in
the hands of cavortin g
Shriners on a convention and
hundreds of grim faced police
who continue to patrol the
streets.
Alabama Gov. George Wal
lace was still carrying on his
feud with President Kennedy
over the presence of Federal
| troops sent to the area for pos
sible use to maintain law and
order after a week end Of
bombings and rioting.
The Governor said President
Kennedy has set up a military
dictatorship" in Alabama and
said he definitely has decided
to try to get a Federal court
order to have the troops
removed.
In another development, the
white Birmingham citizens who
negotiated last weeks shaky
settlement designed to end
racial discord revealed their
names. The negotiations had
been carried on in strict secrecy
and the whites had declined to
identify themselves for fear of
reprisals by segregationists.
More Than 10 Listed
More than 10 names were
listed for the white organiza-
ton which calls itself the

statement issued with the list
said that not all the members
agreed with the settlement but
that a majority did.
