a compromise on mothers aid
legislation, suggested BY Represen.
tatiye Norton Of New Jersey, came
into the foreground today.
The compromise proposes reten.
ton Of the basic features of the
Capper bill, placing the adrninistra.
ton Of mothers pensions ia the
new board OF public welfare.
It would provide. however, that
two members of the board be desiR.
mated by the director to give their
services exclusively to the admin.
istration OF aid for mothers and
dependent children.
These two y7eInbsrs of the board
Of public welfare virtually would
function independently OF the board
itself, having separate offices, etc.
The purpose Of this detachment ii
to take away the atmosphere OF
charities and corrections from the
pensions system for mothers.
The House and Senate confePees
will meet late this afternoon, when
the compromise will be suggested.
Whether it win be accepted by the
Senate conferees ia open to Ques.
ton. It is held that the measure
permits the board Of public welfare
to take the action contemplated in
the amendment, thus making the
latter unnecessary.

Bill Is AIMED 1T
I. ABUSES

As result of the investigation
into the administration Dc the Die.
trict Government under Commits
sioner Frederick a. Fenning four
bills to reform existing practices
were introduced IN the House today.
All four measures are d result Of
the investigation BY the House Dis.
trfcf subcommittee headed by
Representative Ernest w. Gibson of
Vermont.
Two Of the bills. one BY Repre-.
sentative Gibson and one BY Repre-
sentative Frederick n Nihlman Of
MARYLAND. chairman 0f the District
COMMITTEES, provide Tor annual VIZ.
ssaEaents 0f resi- estate.
lsD;o00 Revenue K.Oss
Tnvestigation by the suDccnirnit-
tee shows that approxinaat ely ten
million dollars worth of taxable
building construction ii completed
iii the District annually, Repre-
sentative Gibson explained. When
assessments are made, only once
every two years, the District loses
the benefit of taxes on so. 900. 900,
amounting at the present rate to
S17D 900 revenue
1T is estimated, ana the bill pro-
vides that only $4,000 shall be
provided for the annual assess-
Inent.'
Both biiIs provide for the en-
pIoyment Of two additional assistant
real estate assessors, two field men,
ana five clerks, at salaries to be-
fixed ~ the classif ication act.
Representative Gibson also intro.
duced q bin removing the statute
OF limitation as applied to corpora
tions III the District which are de-
Hnquent in payment Of taxes.
Would Press Old Cases
The investigation revealed that
since 1910, six of the largest local
corporations have failed to pay
taxes totaIling nearly one million
dollars. Many Of these claims have
been disaIIoWed because Of the
statute. lie the Gibson bill Ii passed,
the District Corporation Counsel
will be required to inptitute pro.
ceedings to collect the entire amount
due,
The fourth measure, which was
introduced by Representative Zihls
man, prohibits any corporation from
interposing the defense Of usury in
any action. The measure extends
corporation classification to include
all associations and joint stock COM
panies having any of the powers
and privileges of corporations, not
possessed by individual or partner
ships.
The District subcommittee viii
meet in executive session. at 1880
tonight to continue consideration Of
its report to the full committee.
Representative Gibson stated that
he does not expect to hold further
public hearings. The report prohab-
" win be submitted q week from
today to the fun committee.
This brings the total number Of
bills introduced into the House as
result OF the Fenning investiga-
ton to ten.

It. Faga, War Hero,
Is Found Guilty
Court-MartiaI Holds His De-
sertion PrejudlciaI to
Good Of Service

First Lieut.. william FL. Faga,
United States Marine Corps, who
went into the World War to win
one Of the most enviable military
records, was found guilty late yes
terday after q ten weeks trial be-
fore 4 general court martial at the
Washington Navy Yard Of series
of serious charges growing out Of
his unauthorized absence from peace
time duty at the Marine Barracks,
Annapolis, Nd.
Although the court did not Of
ficiaIly announce its findings, IL In
dicated las is the custom OF the
servicel that 1t had found Lieuter.
ant Faga guilty of conduct unbe.
coming an officer, conduct prejy-
dicial to the good Of the service,
and q technical charge Of ernbez-
element. 1t also maintained silence
on a charge Of desertion, indicating
that 1t had found him guilty OF
that charge, or Of a charge Of alb.
Sence over leave.
The court held that the prosecu-
ton did not prove the charge Of
theft Of q watch1 and charge Of
neglect of duty, growing out Of
Faga's alleged failure to inventory
arms and stores under his supervt-
sion az post quartermaster.
Findings Sent to Wilbur
The findings OF the court have
been sent through regular chan.
nels to the Secretary Of the Navy
for review before the verdict and
sentence Ii announced
Faga, on q weekend leave from
Annapolis last August, oyerstayed
his leave and vanished for more
than two months. During his abb
seTlce he visited Philadelphia, various
New Jersey cities, New York and
Washington. The evidence showed
that he gave two checks which
were returned for insufficient funds.
A check-up on funds handled by
him revealed that he had paid
soldiers transportation with funds
which were supposed to be used
for meals and transfers. This was
the basis of the finding that he
was guilty Of embezziement. The
evidence did not indicate that Faga
had used any Of the money for
his own purposes.
Delay In Paying Hotel Bill y.
The charge Of conduct prejudicial
TO the service grew out Of the Civ.
ing OF the bad checks. The charge
of conduct unbecoming an officer
grew out Of his delay In paying q
bin at the Harrington Hotel here
In Washington. 1t was for $3.50.
The charge Of deserticn was lodged
against the officer when, returning
In . dazed condition to Washington
last October, he was turned over TO

there was no suggestion OF the al,

on the other hand, there was quite
a bit of strength in few OF the

Texas and Kansas City Southern
were in demand, as was wheeling
and Lake Erie.
st. Louis Southwestern, which had
sold last week as low as SO and had
ended at 63ss, was selling around 90.
These moves were interpreted TO mean
that despite the cold water recently
thrown upon merger projects, these
had by no means been abandoned.
Industrials provided the main fea-
ture Tobacco Products got up above
par again after having closed at 99%4
Postum Cereal was quite strong. News
that the deal was off between the
