Citizens' Committee Urges Separate Bill on Proposed Changes
Henry G. F. Macfarland, chairman of the joint citizens' committee on the fiscal relation between the District and the United States, yesterday urged every House member to lead the committee's report before ruling on abolishing the half and half plan.
