Opposed to three man rule in Washington DC government
Florida Congressman Frank Clark criticizes the three member commission for DC governance. He argues the current system hides responsibility and keeps 300 000 to 400 000 residents from self-government, urging a ballot for DC residents and either a single commissioner or a representative to Congress. Virginia Rep James Hay agrees, preferring one head of district government with DC residents allowed to elect a delegate or representative. Additional notes mention a demand for a new fire truck facility, a charity outing for poor children, and various local ads.
