HOUSE To HAVE
DISTRICT DAY

A long-delayed inning for Dis
trict of Columbia legislation in
the House may come next Monday.
Representative Clarence j. Nc
Leod. Michigan. acting chairman
of the. District Committee, an
nounced today that he would con-
Ter with Majority Leader TilSon
and ask for a District Day
now that there are a dozen or
more bills on the calendar.
Representative Tilson probably
will confer with other members
of the Republican Steering Com
mittee and grant the request. Of
Acting Chairman Mcleod,
Gave Part of Day
The House has given only part
of one day to District business
during the present session. For
q time, because of the absence of
Chairman Zihlman and the de-
lay in the formation and func-
tioning Of subcommittee, there
were but a few comparatively
minor bills on the District calen-
dar. F
Today, however, the local calen-
dar is pretty well filled and there
is more than days work for
the House when it gives the Dis,
trict a show.
Among the pending bills with
favorable report from the sub
committee are:
Increase i'm Pay
Police and firemen's increase
pay: the bill to regulate real eS-
tate transactions in the Capital:
q measure making more stringent
the regulations for the possession
of firearms and other dangerous
weapons; the bill to legaliZe anna
teur prize fighting if the prize
does not exceed $35 in value; the
measure authorizing acquisition of
the old Ford's Theater as a Lin
coin museum and headquarters
for patriotic organizations. and
proposed legislation giving the
commissioners authority to settle
certain classes of claims against
the District.

P. j. c. To HEAR
CLAIMS FOR
TAXI RATES
City Cab Co. to Ask Approval
OF MeterIess Charges, Thus
Becoming Hackers

The Public Utilities Commis-
sion will hold q public hearing
in the near future on the sched-
ule Of rates offered by the new
35-cent cabs, it was announced
today.
The City Cab Co.. largest Of
the flat rate concerns, will ask
the commission to approve its
schedule Of rates without a
meter. so that they can put III"
or hacking tags on their cars
which will enable them to pick
up passengers off the street.
Meanwhile, the taxi situation
became more complex by the
advent Of new 35-cent company
bearing the title Of stop Me-"
Fifty of their cars are already
on the street and the City Cab
Co. put an additional Is cars on
duty today and planned to
double its fleet within month.
Because they have been unable
to have their rates approved by
the utility board, so far, the flat
rate companies are operating on
81" or livery tags. They can not
cruise for fares but must receive
their calls from central station.
The City Cab Co. filed its sched-
ule of rates with the commission
over two weeks ago, but no action
has been taken as yet. A def
mite date for the hearing will be
set when the board meets on
Wednesday.
At present the District loses
hundreds of dollars each year in
revenue due to the fact that the
flat rate cabs operate with IL"
tags which cost 81 instead of H"
tags costing So. II the rates are
approved by the commission, most
Of the cars would change over to

Judgment Prevents Action

II Miss Sophie Spetcor, who
sued Max M. Weisman for dam
ages for injuries suffered in an

Ing the pendency of the suit.

HARMON THREAT
GETS CASUAL
ONCE OVER
Police Head Denies Story He
Is Conducting Campaign
Against Vice in Capital

Blackhand warning and the
Smattering of underworld talk
which comes into police head
quarters daily mean nothing to
Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superin.
tendent of police, he indicated
today. Pratt believes that the
warnings are from persons at
tempting to perpetrate a hoax.
The cause of the indication was
the receipt Of warming note at
police headquarters which had
been received by Eleck Harmon,
whose home was recently raided
without a warrant.
Harmon turned the note over
to police, who treated it in prac-
tically the same manner that he
did; that is casually.
However, the police chief turned
it over to Sergt. Fred Sandburg,
famed finger-print expert, for ex-
animation.
Pratt denied today that he was
in the midst of inStituting whole
sale vice campaigns in Wash
ington.
Work Of the police will con-
tinue as it always has," the police
chief declared, but we are max
ing no special drives"
Pratt said Washington was re-
markably free from vice, and that
he knew Of only few cases in
which men were put on the
spot"
Most of these, it was learned,
were police informerS.

Franco Gives Interview

Lisbon, Portugal, Dec. 16 tPs-- Major Ramon Franco told an inter- viewer today that he and his com- patriots had failed in their attempt cd coup yesterday because the ar tillery corps, after pledging adhe- sion 10 the movement, backed out at the last minute.
 When the artillery opened fire against us," Franco commented, there was only one alternative surrender. Nevertheless nothing can arrest the republican movement which will soon swamp Spain. In one month a republic will be pro- claimed"
 He said that the object Of their attempt was to establish liberty and impose a constitution on the Spanish people which, republican or otherwise, would permit Spain to breathe freely. I wished out of pa triotism to put an end to the tyran ny which lasted eight years. and that's what we decided to do.'
 Declines Information
 Franco declined to say how he had escaped from prison a few weeks ago but said that he had been hiding in a village near Madrid. T did not want to 20 too far away from the government or the king for l knew that a revolution was in

evitable."
 General Gonzalo Queipo De Llano Y Sierra, reputedly chief of the rev olutionaries. said the failure of their plans was due primarily to the rash ness of Captain Fermin Galan Rod rigucZ, who was executed after sup pression of the revolt at Jaca Satur- day.
 Tt was unfortunate, he said, that Galan spoiled everything by his impatience. He had recruited men upon whom we thought we could count, but they failed to keep their engagements. Galan, always blessed with the idea of being first, precipitated things. He wanted something more than a republic and so as to be at the head of the revo- lutionary movement he decided to start three days before the date fixed. The governments oppressive measures and the police did the rest.
 Planned Republic
 eve planned a republic and the establishment of a new constitu- uO1dl OrOef. In our view the army $ role was 10 remain in barracks, for the army is the organ of national defense and not the instrument of government. We wished power to be placed in the hands of civilians be- cause they alone are able to govern and as the monarchy had been the strongest supporter Of the dictator ship we turned toward the republic seeking new horizons of liberty.
 Spain suffers from the work of Primo De Rivera and Of Damaso Berenguer, who have kept from the government men who by their assiduous study of national prob lens alone were capable Of carrying out a sound government policy. Con- vinced Of the administrative inca paCity of the army we revoted, our eyes fixed on the future of Spain, because we wished each person to be in his place. We wished to give prestige to the army and hand over the government to the civil powers which under a republic would save the nation from decay

committee on the emergency public pledged this time to report to the membership before consenting to striking out amendments objection able to the administration.
 In the house the plans of leaders for action on the drought relief bill were somewhat uncertain after a re- publican attempt to push it through without voting on senate provisions of the measure had been turned back.
 Only routine legislation advanced. the senate passing yesterday the treasury post office billion dollar appropriation, with amendments necesstating a conference with the house on it too.
 Gain 16 G. o. P. Votes
 The house democrats gained IS republican votes and that Of the one farmer-labor member to defeat the majority's attempt to- rush through the drought bill without amend ments, stripped of authorization for food loans and cut from the senato's $60, 900, GOO to half that sum.
 The senate measure was being considered again by the house agri- culture committee, which studied the possibility of offering it to the mem- bership intact as to money, but free of the food loan provision. Some time this week or next a vote will be sought.
 To no avail Senator Borah, re- publican, Idaho, had thrown into the dispute plea for action, reminding his colleagues that while they talked people were hungry. But at least President Hoover had received staunch defense from Senator Wat son of Indiana, the republican lead CT. And Senator Jones, republican, Washington, last night had taken to the radio to give the public direct a defense Of the chief executive.
 Defends Hoover
 "He is as innocent of deceit, of what is called bunk and of decep- ton as a newborn babe" said Jones. He may make some mistakes-who docs not? That be is denounced as a deceivcr of the people and d bunk pcddler' should meet with the con- donnnation of every good citizen, re- gardlcss of politics"
