MAY ASK LONGER
RECIPROCITY PERIOD
D. C. Officials Consider Re-
questing One More Month
From Maryland.

The District Commissioners prob
ably will ask Maryland to extend the
temporary automobile reciprocity
agreement for another month if the
gasoline tax bill fails to pass Con-
gress by February 29.
The present understanding between
the two jurisdictions will expire au-
tomatically on March / unless the
gas tax measure becomes q law be-
fore that date, which means that
only three weeks remain in which to
get action in both the House and
Senate. -:
Commissioner Rudolph, chairman
OF the board. said today that no de-
cision has been reached as to what
the local authorities will do at the
end OF this month, but he intimated
he thought request for a thirty
day extension would be the wisest
course to pursue.
Renewal of Correspondence.
The Commissioners will not wait
until the last few days OF the month
to renew correspondence with Gov.
nitSIle OI IndTy yldNQ. InlS would not
be wise. 1t was pointed out, for the
reason that If reciprocity is to end
on March there are hundreds of To-
cal car owners who will want to buy
Maryland tags and large numbers of
Marylanders applying for District
license plates.
The gas tax bill has been reported
favorably to the House by the District
committee, but not in exactly the
form In which the Commissioners
drafted it. When the measure reach
ed the House District committee some,
opposition developed to the provision
eliminating the personal tax on auto
mobiles
Some Opposition Here.
A compromise finally was reached
and the bill was amended so as to
abolish the personal tax only on ma
chimes valued at less than $1,000. As
result of this change some oppo-
sition to the bill has developed among
local organizations.
Some opponents Of the gasoline tax
bill have urged enactment of the bill
under which Maryland would be de-
prived Of federal road-building funds
unless reciprocity Is granted.

District Appeals Tribunal
Holds Convictions Were
Reached Without Error.

The District Court of Appeals to-

dicated in 1920 on a charge of con-
spiracy to bring stolen Wall street
securities into the District Of Column
bia for hypothecation with local
banks. Arnstein was sentenced to
serve two years in the penitentiary

ment. David w. Sullivan and wilen
w. Easterday, Washington stock

Big Wall Street Theft.
. The case grew out Of the $4,000, 900
Wall street steal, and Joseph Gluck,

tions. was indicted Jointly with the
Ave mentioned above. Gluck turned
states evidence and steadfastly de-
clared he had not been promised i'm
munity
. The opinion Of the appellate court
was rendered by Chief Justice Smyth,
who sustained the rulings of the
late Justice Gould, who presided at
the trial. He finds that the testimony
of Gluck was properly received and
the exclusion of statements made by
him to Assistant District Attorney
Dooling of New York not prejudiciai.
The refusal of the court to give the
instruction IS to the presumption of
innocence in the language offered by

instruction on good character. which
would have embraced all the defend
