TRADE BODY BACKS
CRAMTON MEASURE
Bill Providing for 1000, 900
From U. S. for Parks
Is Endorsed.

The Cramton bill, providing for the
advancement from the Federal Treas
ury, free of interest, of fund of $l6,-
100000 to the District for the acquisi-
ton and development of parks and
playground sites, was approved this
afternoon by the executive committee
of the Board of Trade in indorsing a
recommendation by the parks commit
tee of the organization.
| John DeLaMater of the parks COM
mittee and Fred G. Coldren of the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, which would administer the
proposed funds, explained that the sug-
gested new method for financing devel-
opment of the parks system would SUI
percede the present arrangement, un-
der which the District this current ifs
cal year is being taxed $850,000.
The $16,000,000 fund to be ad-
vanced from the Federal Treasury, 1t
was added, would be repaid. without
interest, at the rate of 100000 a
year. Thus Washington would, under
the new plan, pay an additional expen-
diture per year of $1,500,000 over the
cost during the current year.
w. w. Everett, president of the Board
of Trade, expressed the belief that such
plan would mean a saving to the Dis
trict, since desired purchases of addi-
tional land could be made in the near
future by means Of the big sum adj
vanced, eliminating the cost resulting
from the gradual increment in values
of land sought, often delayed for years
under the present plan.
Mr. DeLaMater pointed out also that
the proposed legislation, aside from
making available the sum of 10000 900,
to be drawn from as needed, would
exempt the District from interest
charges, which, he computed, would
amount to about $4,800,000, or 80 per
cent of the total fund, If the funds aver
aged about eight years in use.
He pointed out that the Cramton
measure made no reference to fiscal
relation questions as between the Dis
trict and the Federal Government,
which, he held, would have been un-
wise, as it might hold up chances for
early passage of the bill. The District
would be required to start repayment
of the fund in 1881.
The Cramton measure also would pro-
vide for the development of a George
washington memorial parkway along
the Potomac, an appropriation Of
$1,000, 900 as a maximum, no part of
which would be assessed against Dis
trict taxpayers.
The executive committee of the board
voted to join with other local organi-
cations in entertaining March l to 10
a group of $50 members of the Young
Australia League, composed of Aus
tralian college students, who will stop
here on an educational tour of the
United States A luncheon and theater
party will be rendered the group.

HELD IN ATTACK.
On WOMAN

Positively identified by a young
woman complainant, Paul Alexander
Ullrich, 81, of the 400 block G ST.
N. W., was held in the Ninth police
precinct today on a statutory
charge.
Ullrich was picked from a group
of prisoners by Mrs. Norma Mou-
bray, 20, of the 100 block Owens
Pl. N. E. He was arrested last
night by Policeman w. B. Satter-
waite, He was located through a
calling card found in Mrs. Mou-
bray's home.
Mrs. Moubray told police Ullrich
rang her doorbell Wednesday and
she permitted him to enter her
home when he said he was sales.
man for a sewing machine company.
Mrs. Moubray said when the front
door was closed and he saw no one
else was in the house, Ulrich en-
braced her and she broke away and
ran screaming into the street.
Believing he had gone, she says
she returned home a few minutes
later and the Salesman" grabbed
her again. In the scuffle that fol-
lowed, Mrs. Moubray was thrown
from her feet, but her assailant ran
out the back door when he thought
he heard footsteps approaching.
