WASHINGTON, Kelt. . -llepresen-t.itlve Burton, of Ohio, who by reason of his position as chairman of th commlttee on river and harbors, Is one of the most Important factor;! of; the House of Representatives, lias ro. j cently been quoted as saying thai he! would decline the cli.ilnii.iasaip . f i.un' committee when the committers of ths' next House were made up, owl: k to his refusal to permit extraordinary ap propriations for wanted Improvement that seem to him to seek a local nther Jhan a general benefit, ami which ate not demanded by the trade and com merce of the country, Mr. Burton lias won the cordial disapproval of many members of the House who have thus been unable to secure appropria tions for their district they think should have been made.

He could get ihe vaeaney "U the Ways nnd Means committee, caused by the retirement f detieral Groswnor of his state, but Mr. Kui-j ton may well question whether he i would be the influential actor In leg- ; islation he now Is were he simply a j member of that committee and not chairman of the committee that spends upward of a hundred million each Con gress. Then, too, would he be th leader of his party In Northern Ohio but for the fact of the place he now holds?
