FRAUD CHECK BILL
TABLED In SENATE
Provisions of Measure to Reg.
uIate District Law Is
Attacked.

Tabled after a lively debate was
the fate Of the conference report on
the bill to regulate the issuance OF
checks in the District of Columbia,
aimed. its proponents declared, at
check frauds. The bill passed the
Senate and several minor amend
ments were made to it in the House,
concurrence of the Senate in which
was requested.
The bill enables a man who has
passed a bad check 10 escape prose-
Cution by returning the money
within five days" said those op-
posing the measure, who included
Robinson, of Arkansas; King, Of
Utah: Reed. of Missouri. and Cara
way. of Arkansas. "and puts a man
who violates its provision to the
extent of only ten cents in a class
with felons. whereas theft OF so
small a sum is only petty larceny.
Senator Jones, of Washington
who was in charge Of the measure,
declared courts would have the dis
Cretion of determining whether
thefts or check frauds should he
punished as minor or major Of
ferses. and that no intention of aid
the bankers or others specifically
can rightfully be charged TO the
trainers OF the measure.
ON motion OF Senator King the
bill was tabled.

taxes on Inheritance or incomes in
vested In intangible assets to make
il possible to enjoy the bencfts pro-
vided by the Federal government
here. o
Senator Caraway declared IL un-
fair to require taxpayers of the
States to help excessively to bear
the burdens of people who live here.
Best Solution.
Senator Curtis. chairman OF the
District Appropriations Committee
of the Senate, said he had been
handling District fiscal matters for
many years and was forced TO look
upon the $3.50 plan as the best
solution under the circumstances.
He said a surplus of more than
s4,0oo,00o had accumulated in the
Federal Treasury which the Dis
trict Is entitled TO. but which has
been denied because OF the COM
plications arising over the question
of a ratio.
Senator Glass. of Virginia, former
Secretary of Treasury. expressed
the conviction that the 100000
surplus in the Federal Treasury be-
longed to the District taxpayers.
Senator Fletcher, of Florida,
called attention to the fact that the
government owns and controls half
the property in Washington and
that this property, belonging to the
people at large. is exempt from
taxes.

Passage of the District $3.50 bill
was defeated in the Senate yester-
day.
Senators King. Utah: Lenroot,
Visions Caraway, Arkansas: Nc
Nary, oregon, and others declared
that to fix a ratio by which the gov-
eminent would pay half the ex-
penses Of the local government
would be unfair to the people of the
States whose taxes are greater than
the taxes here.
Defeat Is Null.
The bill went over on a motion
to adjourn after a motion by Sena-
tor King to recommit the measure
to the District committee was lost
by a vote Of 26 to II. A quorum not
having voted on the King motion.
its defeat was null. The bill re-
mains in status quo.
Senator Jones, of Washington. au-
thor and sponsor of the bill. said
the committee urged him to press
for its passage on the ground that
the perennial controversy over the
question of fiscal relations between
the Federal and local governments
comes to the fore at the close of
each session of Congress, ticing up
appropriation bills. He said II wa.
the opinion of a majority of the COM
mittee that the half-and-half plan
was the fairest possible TO apply,

now pays only 20 per cent of the
National Capitals expenses. This is

city in which the nation has pride

him to the serious consideration of
music lovers last season as well as some
OF the limitations which checked the
ambition of his utterances Last sea.
son nc brought back to public attention
the -Four Serious Songs" OF Brahms
and yesterday he revived the short Bee
thoven cycle. "An die ferne Geliebte."
Mr.. Quine's voice seemed to be un-
usually reluctant to lend itself TO
nuance, and in the lower register IL
seemed particularly cold and artificial
in tone. But the singers careful prepa-
ration OF his plan of Interpretation was
again in evidence. 1t never can be said
of Mr.. Quine that he fails to bestow
much thought on his songs Because
Of his intelligence he Is generally inter
esting. though sometimes wanting IN
moving qualities of tone and style.
Last season he achieved a success
with Handeps "Furibondo." He es-
sayed to repeat that success with the
same masters "Sorge nfausta una pro-
celia" but the fiorid passages were by
no means as we'll done as those OF last
autumn. Mr.. Qune. however is n singer
who commands respect for his sincerity
and for the plentiful evidences he gives
OF devoted study of his art.
