Commissioners Declared in
Mood to Follow Example
Of Virginia Heads

Estimates for the budget Of
Arlington county for the fiscal
year 1933-34 will be pared to the
bone, it was indicated by a poll
of county officials today.
Already the State has cut its
appropriations and the county Of
ficers are expected to follow suit
shortly. 1t will be a plan of
wholesale retrenchment, it is un-
derstood.
Prime reason for the reduction,
which would not become effective
before July /. 1885,. is that salaries
Of most residents of the county,
especially Government workers,
have been slashed and it is felt
something should be done to pre-
vent excess expenditure by the
county.
The estimates soon will be pre-
pared under a plan devised by T.
Coleman Andrews, State auditor.
Members of the county board of
commissioners. while declining to
be quoted on the matter until re-

Eddie Allen can't understand how
people could have thought his sis
ter, Rose, had turned against him 1t
the trial in which he was acquitted
Of staying Francis A. Donaldson,
Third, her fiance.
"All this talk about Rose and my
self being separated and not being
friends" he said after three months
in jail, wasn't true at all. Rose and
l have stuck together all through
this. She has always been for me
through this thing"
Eddie and Rose and their father,
Horace Allen, were together again
Sunday for the first time since the
shooting Of Donaldson IN the Allen
apartment last Nov. 9.
The jury apparently voted the &C
quittal on the strength Of young AL
lens self-defense plea. The deliber-
alton lasted 10 hours.
Francis A. Donaldson, IT.. socially
prominent father Of the dead youth,
issued . written statement Sunday
in which he denounced the verdict
and criticized the judge.

Gun, Rests It Carefully,
Pulls Trigger

New York, Feb. 8.-(AP)-Young
Vincent Coll, most feared of the Co

down in q West 23rd Street drug
store.
A single slug tore away the nose
the 24-year-old hoodlum so often
had turned up at his deadly rival,
Dutch" Schultz, and the Schultz
beer-peddling domination in the
Bronx. A line of lead, moving like
a sabre, cut through the flashy coat
and vest, and into his chest.
The killer entered the little drug
store as Coll (recently acquitted Of
the "baby murder" charge growing
out of the Michael Vengalli staying
last summer) stood in a phone booth
at the rear.
Several customers were in the
place.
Seated at an ice cream table near
the phone booth was Coils body
guard. The killer, a sub-machine
gun slung carelessly under his right
arm, moved slowly toward the rear
of the store.
He said:
Everybody, keep cool. Keep
calm. This amt no stickup. You
won't get hurt"
He shuffled steadily toward the
rear. not taking his eye from the
booth-one. Of three at the rear of
the store-in which Coll was en-
crossed in his phone call.
!. Coils bodyguard arose quietly
from his table, circled noiselessly
out of range, and slipped
through the door to the street. The
killer paid him no heed. Standing
within few feet of the phone
booth, the man lifted the barrel of
the machine gun, rested it careful
~ on his left arm and pulled the
trigger.
It was seconds only for those who
saw it-and eternity for Vincent
Coll. His body slid down, almost
doubling up, and wedged4 j the
booth near the floor.
The slayer backed out of the store.
A companion, armed with a machine
gun, was awaiting him there at the
door of a sedan at the wheel of
which was third man. They drove
away.
A patrolman gave pursuit but in
effectually. The killers car was
lost in traffic.
