 sonYile, Tenn.
TRAIN PREVIOUSLY HAD
 HIT CAR, KILLING SIX
Express Derailed by Impact and Two Motor Trains Had Been Sent Speeding to Scene to Clear Wreck age and Aid Injured Persons.

Portland, Tenn, Nov. P-Two rescue crews of 20 men each racing through the night from different stations to offer first aid 10 pas sengers injured when Louisville and Nashville railroad train was de- railed near Hendersonville. Tenn. met disaster themselves last night when the rail motors which were carrying them collided here killing five and injuring 1s of their num- Der, six probably fatally.
 Express Train Hit Auto
 Two men had been killed and six persons injured when the crack train, the American. struck an automobile which derailed the train last night. Hurried calls for aid to clear away the wreckage and aid the injured brought the two train crews rushing from Mitchellville and Fountain Head. Tenn, toward Hen dersonvile.
 Crash at 50 Miles
 While travelling at 50 miles an hour the rail motors from the two towns met head on, inflicting death and injury to more than half the 40 men. while still 20 miles from the Pan-American wreck scene. The depot here was converted hastily into a temporary hospital and aid given the men who had started to give succor to those injured in the train wreck an hour or two earlier in the night.
 The Pan-American train killed both occupants of the automobile which it struck, Luther Payne and Walter Frakes, of sandersvile, Tenn. The impact caused by the crash derailed the train, seven cars overturning. Four negro dining car employees were injured and two women were hurt when the diner was ditched.
 Injured Passengers The passengers hurt were: Mrs. J. W. Ingrum, Chillicothe, Ohio and Mrs. J. B. Stubbins, Birmingham, Ala, neither seriously.
 That more persons were not in- jured was attributed to the make up of the train which was all of steel coaches.
 Ambulances took the injured pas sengers and porters to Nashville.
 Peculiar Accident
 Unofficially it was said that when the train struck the automobile. it knocked the motor against a switch handle, opening the frog which immediately resulted in de- railing the train. The Pan-Ameri- can was 40 minutes late and : wa- running fast to make up lost time.
 The Pan-American. Louisville and Nashville train. was bound from Cincinnati to New Orleans.

OFFERS SITE FOR
 CITY PARKING AREA
Booth Estate Would Sell Prop
 erty in North End
AT HEAD OF EAST MAIN ST.
w. l.. Hatch, Trustee, Says Place Could Be Bought or Rented in Letter to Committce-Cmsiders It Good Investment.

Members of the municipal park ing space committee have been asked to consider purchase of the Booth estate property in the area through which Finnegan's drive now passes, the land to be utilized for parking at once and to be held for future use as an extension of East Main street through to Washington street.
 William L. Hatch. trustee of the Booth estate, has written Mayor Weld and members of the commit tee, pointing to the likelihood of great profits in the event of street extension, and offering to sell or rent the property at reasonable figure.
 His letter follows:
 "The thought has just come to me that perhaps the city might be in terested in purchasing for parking space the land of the estate of Hor- ace Booth located in the rear of Finnegan's livery stable and Char lands garage on the west side of East Main street.
 This is very large piece of land, we think something over 50,000 square feet, that is, that can be used for parking purposes. The Booth estate would be willing to sell this to the city at a reasonable price. Be- sides being useful as parking space. the city would undoubtedly make very large profit on it some time in the future if East Main this land.
 If a decision is made 10 adopt the suggestion of the municipal parking space, the Booth estate will be willing to either sell or rent this land for that purpose"
 Councilman w. s. Warner is chairman of the committee ap- pointed to consider the advsa+ility of establishing a municipal parking space. He is also sponsor of the movement which. he explained to the common council, will eliminate much of the traffic and parking difficulties faced by the city, and probably delay the widening of many arteries of traffic. The com mittee has had one meeting and is now gathering data on the parking systems employed elsewhere.
 Agitation for an extension of East Main street has been carried on for many years, but has met opposition on the ground that the financial costs would be great. The purchase and demolition of q Main street business building would be involved
 Proponents of this improvement point to the fact that a new busi- ness zone would be opened up with a great increase in tax income. They also claim that much traffic now passing through the city en route to points west would be les sencd appreciably.
 Purchase by the city of this plot would make possible establishment of Burritt memorial such as was discussed at a meeting of the Amer ican Legion recently. The old home stead of Elihu Burritt stands on this plot of land. The Legion favors renovation of the building and it's

Chairman Madden, However. Optim- 1stically Approves of Melons Pro- posals to Raise Proposed Credit and also to Permit 1t to be Made Applicable to Payments. Due fin March.

Washington, Nov. IT P-The seemingly unalterable opposition of leading democratic tax experts to the administration proposal for a tax credit on next years income tax pay ments served today to impress re- publican leaders with certain sense of hopelessness for the pro- gram.

When general democratic antagonism such as this sponsors of the plan see no rosy prospects of putting it through in the brief short session to begin December 6.
 Optimistic Note.
 One optimistic note was sounded however, by Chairman Madden, of the house appropriation committee, who said he approN Id Secretary Mellon's suggestion that the pro- posed credit should be raised from 12 1-2 per cent and that he saw no reason why the refund could not be made applicable to payments due next March.
