MELLON PLANS
FOR TAX GUT

The work of drafting a tax reduc.
tion program for submission at the
December Congress started at the
Treasury today.
Figures available showed that
even though Congress makes nn-
expected appropriations of 800 00o.-
600 there still will be a safe margin
for slash in rates
Because of the extraordinary
business and speculative activity
from the very beginning of the
year. which in virtually every
phase Of commerce has exceeded
1928, it was thought that barring a
most unexpected upset before Jan
uary l, income and corporation
taxes for 1880 might pass $500
600, 900. or even reach S3.00O.O00, 300.
on the basis of present rates.
Under Secretary Mills is expected
to confer with Secretary Mellon on
the tax program within a few days
and no doubt Mellon will discuss
the matter at the White House, to
inform the President just what sum
will be available for the reduction.

Cop First Praised Then
"Set Down" For
Arrest

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Sept. 25.-
state Policeman Albert e. Mark
ley had hardly recovered from
the congratulations showered upon
him for his activity in trailing
and arresting Myer Epstein. who
is charged with causing the death
of David Carroll, 1S-year-old sales
man on the Severn River Bridge
last Thursday night, when he re-
ceived summary orders to report
for duty at Elkridge.
Markley had been doing duty
here for about two months and
his fine work in capturing Ep-
stein, who is now in Jail awaiting
trial. brought commentator from
civic leaders.
This morning he was trans.
ferred to a minor post as his
reward.
When Markley asked the reason
for his transfer. he was told by
his superiors that he had seen
Epstein in an intoxicated condi-
ton and that he should have
followed him and prevented his
driving a automobile. Epstein
claims he was drunk when he
ran over and killed Carroll.

the President had aligned himself
with the "Old Guard" and the "re-
dictionaries" of the Republican
party.
"The President has taken his DO 81

Battle Looms
The flexible battle will be be-
tween continuation of the existing
law and elimination of the pro
vision. The House approved a new
provision, basing changes in rates
on conditions of competition" in.
stead of costs of production" The
Senate committee, after once in.
dorsing the House plan, reversed
itself and recommended continuation
of existing law, with a few minor
changes.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Unher-
aided and almost incognito, Mrs.
Herbert Hoover, wife of the
President, arrived in town today

Dorsey, Jr., Retains D. C.
Model Aircraft Title

The battle waged between Her
bert Dorsey, jr, and the son of
Frank Salisbury over the decision
of judges in the model aircraft
championship contest was fought to
finish yesterday when Dorsey
was officially retained as champion
of the District.
Salisbury complained to school
officials that his son had won the
championship with SO points, while
Dorsey had but 55. An investiga-
ton revealed, however, that Dorsey
was competing in a higher class, a
class in which Salisbury would have
scored but ~ points.
Dorsey holds five District aircraft
records.
The Washington times., 1929-09-25


The commonwealth late yesterday
afternoon concluded its case. and i'm.
mediately Thomas D. Caldwell. the
defendants lawyer, asked Judge
William H. largest to direct a
second-degree murder verdict. The
court refused to do this. contending
that the jury must decide from the
testimony whether there was pre-
meditation.
No Rivalry Shown
The prosecution did not bring out
through witnesses that there had
been any rivalry between Crane and
Oren or that the woman had been
the sweetheart of the former ball
player who is being tried now for
her death.
DR.. Henry Joseph Kirby, who
dressed the wound in Cranes head
when Oren partly stunned the
former ball player by a Blow with
the ukulele, testified Crane had
been drinking.
II talked to Crane in the hos
pital," the physician said. HE
seemed in a good humor, was jovial
and talked to the nurses. do
not believe he knew what he was
doing or had done. He was in
toxicated."
District Attorney Fox, however,
drew from DIR. Kirby the admission
that Crane recognized him when
he came into the hospital.
Found in StupOr
Gordon Ford, a railroad worker,
testified to finding Crane on his
hands and knees in a city park
after the dual shooting.
He was silly and in a stupor,"
Ford testified. "I never saw him
so bad before"
Jesse Clements, hotel proprietor,
testified that Crane had been drink
ing for several days before the
murder and had eaten nothing.
Clements added that on the night
Of the shooting he had sent Crane
from his barroom because he had
been passing around a bottle and
causing trouble.
Other witnesses gave similar testi-
mony, and Ford revealed that sew
eral months prior to the shooting
Crane had confided to him he in
tended to marry Miss Lyter.

The Democratic -Insurgent coali.
ton. which seeks to eliminate the
provision entirely, united their at
tacks on it with criticism of the
President. The indications were
that the battle lines on this provi-
sion would be closer than on any
other. Likewise, it appeared GER
tain that whichever group wins this
battle, will dictate virtually all the
rates in the new bill
Rate Too High
The coalitions assaults on the
provision were launched by Senator
Simmons CD of North Carolina and
Senator Harrison CD of Mississippi.
The former charged that the flex-
ible tariff delegated the powers of
Congress to the President and gave
