ADOPT MD. TAX
ON GASOLINE, IS
DISTRICT PLAN
Commissioner Rudolph Favors
It as improvement on
License System.

Reciprocity between Maryland aud
the District Of Columbia, based on
the gasoline tax fixed by the Mary
land Legislature, was indorsed today
by Cuno II. Rudolph. chairman Of
the Board Of DISTRICT Commissioners.
Copies of the new law were re-
ceived by Mr.. Rudolph today. For a
period of one year there will be as.
sessed a tax OF cent per gallCn on
gasoline sold in Maryland, and afte.'
that time the tax will be cents per
gallon.
II the District of Columbia will
follow suit and fix Il gas tax to con-
form with the new Maryland tax, no
Maryland automobile tag will be re
quired. and vice versa.
Mr.. Rudolph stated today that the
American Automobile Assoc .ation
would take steps to learn the senti-
ment OF automobile owners in the
District and would make recommen-
dations at some later date.
The present system should not OBJ
tain any longer than is absolutely
necessary. Mr.. Rudolph said today.
He believes that automobile owners
generally will approve of the gasoline
tax in lieu of the license tax now re.
quired.

FOR RULING ON
MERGER POWER
Utilities Act Believed to Pro-
vide Authority for Trac-

IF the Public Utilities Commits.
sion is empowered under the present

Engineer Commissioner Charles Kel-
Ter, chairman OF the commission, said

BANK CHARGES
ANDLAbORCOST
HOUSING CHECK
Chairmen Of subcommittee
Say Both Are Usurers-To
Continue Meetings.

So long as the banker charges
$3.50 for each dollar loaned for build
ing purposes and the laborer charges
81 for doing 50 cents worth OF work.
building costs in Washington will
continue to be higher than in any
other city.
This is the view held by the chair
men of the subcommittee of the citi-
zens' housing committee, who met
yesterday afternoon and informally
discussed the progress of their
housing investigation.
1t vas decided that meetings win
be held every Thursday afternoon.
when reports will be had of progress
made and efforts will be made to
avoid duplication of work.
William Deane Ham, chairman of
the subcommittee on land. reported
that he had information showing that
the second mortgage" man who
charges bonus sometimes as high as
so per cent is probably more to blame
for high building costs here than any
other.
John Donlin, labor representative
on the committee admitted that the
laborer is not working as hard as
formerly and further said, III admit
we are doing only about 80 per cent
of the work we formerly did, but l
say we are all in the same boat"

According to the tenets of thi.
society, "No young man can
prOUe his devotion save to the
tune of SO to $25 an evening,
and If he hasn't a car of his ot0n
he had better get a tdri."
These are isolated cases of fast
life in big city, and J. II. A.
need haze no further fears that
young Women of this sort repre-
sent the real Uomunhood of the
country, and especially in such
clean city as Washington.
Girls of this sort fool nobody
but themselves. They sou seeds
that reap whirlwinds of sorrOw

of them compared to the huge

She Protests Movie
Making Fun Of
Prohibition

Movies must not make fun Of
the Eighteenth Amendment. This
is the attitude of Miss Georgia
Hopley, the first woman to be
appointed general prohibition
agent.
"It is difficult to understand
why exhibitors and producers
permit demoralizing. belittling
and misrepresenting statements
to be thrown on the SCREEN"
said Miss Hopley today. "since
it is a well-known fact that the
increase of patronage of the
movies stands out conspicuously
as one of the noticeable results
Of prohibition"
Movie attendance would drop
in the event Of the saloons re-
turn. said Miss Hopley. She
spoke highly of the q :tion
taken by the State Federation
of Women's Clubs of New York,
petitioning motion picture pro-
ducers and editors to adopt a
more serious view of protibi-
ton.
