URGES CONCESSIONS
TO INDIAN REBELS
States of Asiatic Empire Would
Be Given More Freedom
Under Plan

London, June c4.-(P1-An all-In-
Ola federation, composed Of both the
states of the Indian princes and the
provinces, was recommended today to
Great Britain and India by the
Simon commission as affording pos
sible solution Of problems presented
by Britain's Asiatic empire.
The units which would be contain
ed in the federation would, under the
recommendations. be self-governing
and autonomous in a constantly pro-
crossing degree according to their
various capacities. The central or
federation government would be re-
sponsible to the British crown.
The recommendations, embodied in
the report of a parliamentary COM
mission of seven, headed by Sir John
Simon, will be the basis of conversa-
tions in the projected round table
conference In October in London on
Indian affairs.
The recommendations received a
generally agreeable welcome in pre-
liminary comments of the British
press this morning; few expected.
however, anything but opposition
from the nationalist groupings in In
dia which have furthered the civil
d~isobedience campaign of the past few
weeks. The measure of self-govern-
'ment allowed was considered as fall
ing far short of their demands for
complete independence. or the i'm
mediate dominion status on which
sone believed they would be willing
to compromise.
The commissioners make clear their
recommendations include end of the
dyarchy, the name given to the sys-
tenn Of British rule and which sets
certain sharply defined limits on ma
tive participation and constantly
thrusts the central government into
administration of provincial affairs.
Other recommendations of the
commissioners are:
Separation of Burma and India,
with Burma responsible to London
rather than to Delhi.
That the London government on

dia, regarding defense of the north
west frontier as an empire rather
than Indian problem.

CRIME SCARCE
IN ANNAPOLIS

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 23.-
Addressing the grand jury at the
formal opening of the circuit court
for Anne Arundel county for the
regular April term, Judge Robert
Moss said that while conditions in
the county as regards law viola
tions are not so good, yet he ex-
pressed doubt whether the county
is any worse off than any other
section of the State. especially
when it is considered that Anne
Arundel is wedged in between two
large cities such as Baltimore and
Washington.
Aside from this, the jurist's re,
marks to the inquiSitorial group
were along general lines, Stressing
the duties of the body and urging
careful and impartial investiga-
tion of all matters brought before
it. John Claytor, retired business
man of the First district, is fore
man of the jury.
In addition to a number Of other
liquor law cases and other viola
tions slated for investigation,
other criminal actions for which
prisoners now are lodged in the
county Jail are listed as follows:
Murder, 2: robbery, 2; burglary, 6:
destruction of property, 2, and
one each for arson, carnal knowl-
edge, aggravated assault, larceny,
house breaking.

City Editor of The Washington

letter was referred to the law firm

reached President Hoover, and by
order of the Chief Executive, the

The word was telegraphed to
Moody, then awaiting at the Cana

Wild Deer is Seen
Near North Redwood
Tuesday Afternoon
Animal Is Seen by Harold Mann ;
Jumps Fence With Easy
Stride and Disappears

While working in field at his home
two miles west of North Redwood
Tuesday afternoon, Harold Mann saw
a deer run across neighboring field,
jump a fence and disappear. Mr..
Mann made no effort to follow the
deer, although he reported the in
cident to Walter Marsh, superinten-
dent of Ramsey State Park, from
where he believed it had made its
escape.
Upon investigation, however, it
was found that the deer had not
gotten out of Ramsey, there being
nine old deer and two fawns in the
park. Although being unable to
make sure of its age, Mr.. Mann
stated that he thought perhaps the
deer may have been about a year
old.
1t is thought that the animal may
have escaped from some neighboring
park, with a possibility that it may
have been wild and migrated from
the northern part of the state.

End Journey Safely
Sedan Leaves Parking Space
and Plunges Over Enbank-
ment Into Lake

Just touching something on his
fathers parked sedan precipitated
Frank Lamphere, 3-year-old son OF
Bert Lamphere, into a wild automo-
bile ride that miraculously ended
with the car standing in two feet Of
water in Lake Redwood with no more
damage than a few scratches to
Frank and bent fender and broken
snubber on the car.
Shortly after one o'clock last We'd
nesday afternoon Bert Lamphere
parked his car with the small boy in
it in front of the Montgomery Ward
store on Mill street. The car was
parked in the customary place in the
center of the street and the ordinary
precaution of setting the brakes was
taken. A few minutes later the car
was gone with the boy in it.
Whatever was touched, as the boy
described it, resulted in the release OF
the brakes Of the car slowly left the
parking plax, travelling toward Sec
ond street. Arriving at the corner it
made a swing and began the steep
descent toward the lake to the west.
In making the turn the car travelled
to the north side of the street and
then back over to the south side, al
way retaining it's lakeward direction.
Reaching the end of the street at
the lake front the sedan continued
its journey, crashed through the
guard rail and sailed out into space
over the edge of bank more than
thirty feet high. Losing it's moment
UNI the car landed half way down the
bank, and careened on it way among
che trees avoiding the largest by veer-
ing from the original course. Two
trees of about two inches in diamet-
er were finally met and this probably
prevented the automobile from charg-
ing out in the lake into deep water.

State Safety Council Asks For
Help In Prevention of Accidents

Keeping away from national accid-
ent totals which, he said, tended to
cause pepole to regard the accident
situation as something remote, c. H.
Zealand, executive secretary Of the
Minnesota Safety Council, urged
members of the Lions club at the
meeting of that organization Monday
noon to look upon Minnesota's accid-
ent problem as one of the communi-
ty and not one restricted to towns
and cities. Of the $40 people killed in
motor vehicle accidents in 1929, only
POP were as result of accidents occur
ing within the limits of any munich
palities, Mr.. Zealand said, and point
ed out that the country and state
roads outside Of towns and cities en-
tirely furnished the locations for the
majority. More tenders may be dent
ed, and more pedestrians than motor
lists killed within the towns than out
side, but where one person was the
victim Of a motor accident within
municipality limits, it was not at all
uncommon for one accident on the
to bring two, three or four
people to their deaths. Turning onto
heavily travelled roads without TAX
ing4eare to see that the way was
clear was stated as one of the most
costly safe driving violations.

killed in motor vehicle accidents in
