COUNT Y PLANS
To CUT GRAF 7

ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 7-Ann e
Arundel officials today are study
ing the recommendations made
yesterday by the grand jury
which would practically eliminate
graft in the county.
The jurors would change the
method Of appointing magistrates,
deputy sheriffs and special
officers. They had in mind the
recent conviction of members of
all three professions in their
county.
The present method Of appoint.
ing these officers was described
as "old, inadequate and outlived
in usefulness to serve the masses"
Their recommendations are:
Substitution of board of five
county commissioners, three of
whom would be elective, one of
them clerk and the fifth an en-
gineer, for the present board; ap-
pointment Of but three magis-
trates to a county and a salary of
$4,000 to each. with power to hear
larceny, HOUSEKEEPING and de-
struction of property cases involv-
ing 500 or less: return Of all costs
and fines to the county treas
urer's office, and appointment of
all police officers and Jail wardens
by the sheriff with the approval
of the court.

HIGH
AMONG CLERKS

Abnormally high turnover, re-
vealed in the figures Of the dis
missals and requirements Of Fed
eral agencies. has attained a mag
nitude not even suspected, if a
tabulation of changes since the
new Administration came into
existence can be taken at face
value.
1t is probable, however, that the
figures. which indicate separation
of $4,000 employees from the pay.
rolls during that time and ap-
pointment Of $4,000, do not indi-
cate as unstable condition in the
service as would appear, or as seri-
GUS inroads by spoilsmen on the
Civil Service. In the first place, a
great many changes are seasonal,
or involve only temporary en-
ployes.
Secondly, rganization of
agencies has placed large numbers
of employees in the status of dis
missed workers, although for the
most part they are automatically
given temporary appointments in
the newly created agencies. This
naturally serves to give the fig.
ures much more devastating ap-
pearance than they actually merit.
The magnitude OF these reor-
CARNATIONS is indicated by the
fact that probably 10000 Federal
employees have been affected by
them in Washington alone, apart
from reorganizations in emerg-
ency units, which may perhaps
involve 1000 or 5000 more.

BaIIoting Light
In Alexandria

With less than 600 votes cast at
10 o'clock this morning, it was
apparent that a very small vote
is to be polled in Alexandria to-
day. OF the 600 total, 225 were
votes cast by absent voters.
The lack Of serious opposition
to the State ticket and the failure
of voters to enthuse over the four
candidates for local office is
blamed by the election officials
for the small vote.
Friends of j. Fred Birrell, vet
eran Democratic member of the
house of delegates, are claiming a
.S-to-1 margin over his independent
opponent. the Rev. r. T. Dodge,
a Baptist minister. F. G.. Duvall,
Democratic nominee for civil and
police justice, has much more seri-
Gus opposition in Frederick L.
Flynn, independent Republican,
who is getting a large slice of the
3ukewarm Democratic vote.
The polls will close at SOL p. M,
and for that reason many work
ing people will be unable to vote.

Elimination of taxes would en-
courage the building of modest
homes, thus giving employment,
putting money in circulation and
speeding the return of prosperity.
Liquor Issue Up
Senator King asked that every
citizens association in the Dis
trict take up the question Of how
liquor should be handled follow
ing repeal of the dry law.
He stressed the point that he
wants the views of the people
of the District on this subject
and will welcome any suggestions
as to proposed legislation.
The failure of the Eighteenth
Amendment, he informed his
audience, was really no surprise
to him, as he realized fully before
it became law it was doomed to
failure. Drastic legislation in re-
CARDS to the liquor law, he pre-
dicted, was doomed to failure.
He stated that he is receiving
an unusually heavy mail as tc
just how liquor should be dis
pensed and will, as far as posi-
BILE, respect the wishes of the
people if in his opinion they ale
right.
Revenue Problem Seen
The Senator favored the repea
of the Intangible tax law anc
was in favor of a graduated in
come tax. Many tax dodgers
wishing to evade payment Of in
come taxes take up residence ir
Washington for a few months
each year simply to evade pay
ment in their home State Of
income taxes, he said.
Work on the new Calvert
Street Bridge, he hoped, would
be commenced at the earliest
possible date, and should be fin
ished in one year after construc
ton is begun.
How to raise money to meet
the enormous expenditures OF
the Government is causing his
Senate committee many hours Of
work. With public debt now

ed by the end of the year will.
be $4,000, 10000 it is the duty
of every citizen now as never
before to stand solid1y behind
their Government, whose honor
and credit must be preserved at
all hazards, he pointed out.

ator's address, an interesting pro

SENATE INQUIRY
COMES To END
THIS WEEK
Seal Ready to Close Presen-
tation at Resumption of
Hearing Saturday

Elwood H. Seal. counsel for the
Senate District Committee inveS-
tigating the local milk industry,
expressed the belief today that he
would be able to close his presen
tation of the case on Saturday of
this week when the probe is re-
Sumed.
Due to the necessity for their
attendance at other committee
meetings during the week, Sena-
tors William H. King Cd, of
Utah, and Pat McCarran CD, Of
Nevada, before the inquiry has
been carried on, announced at the
close of yesterdays session that
they would recess the committee
until Saturday.
No Income Tax Invasion
One of the matters which be-
came involved in the probe re-
Gently was cleared up yesterday
when it was learned that the
committee auditors announced
the books of the Arlington County
Dairy, managed by the Marcy
Brothers. showed no indication
that they had been arranged
with a view to avoiding income
tax payments.
This question was raised last
Saturday by Senator King when,
during testimony which showed
that the salary of the Marcy
Brothers was actually fixed at a
larger sum than had previously
been testified to by one of the
Arlington County Dairy Company
officials, the chairman inquired
of the committee auditor whether
or not he had noticed If the books
appeared to be arranged in such a
way as to permit evasion Of tax
payments.
When the auditor answered neg
atively. the Senator remarked
that that had better be looked
into" Yesterday the auditor said
the books were not arranged in the
manner inquired Of by the chair
man.
Bootleg" Milk Admitted
Among the latest developments
Of interest brought out during the
inquiry was he testimony of the
committee AUDITORS late yesterday
in which they revealed that since
1923 five local independent dis
tributorS have handled over 1000,
900 gallons Of unlicensed milk OF
cream equivalent to milk.
James j. Ward, of the Walker
Hill Diaries, admitted that his
company received some of the
unlicensed milk, and told the com
mittee that although on the
average the unlicensed product
cost more than the licensed milk
he found the "bootlegged" product
to be las good if not better" in
quality than that which legally
comes to this market.
He explained he took the un'
licensed milk because the Mary
land-Virginia Milk Producers AS,
ISOLATION could not or would not
supply enough to meet his needs.

HARRISON SEES
PAY RESTORED

Asserting that it is generally
understood that there has been
an upward trend in the cost of
living during recent months,
Senator Pat Harrison CD of
Mississippi, chairman of the
Senate Finance Committee, voiced
the opinion that President Roose-
welt will restore full pay to
Government employees soon.
He recalled that the IS per
cent pay slash was put into effect
as a part Of the Administration
economy program with the pro-
vision that full salaries would be
restored when a Government
survey revealed an increase in
the cost of living justifying such
action.
Harrison said the survey is
being made now, and that the
cost Of living already has been
shown to have increased.

FAILURE To PAY
POLL TAXES
IS FACTOR
Senator, Governor and Men,
hers of House of Delegates
to Be Chosen

With only one-sixth Of Northern
Virginia's registered voters cast
ing their ballots by II a. m.
today, in the States general cleo
ton, officials of polling places
expressed disappointment and
predicted only about 70 per cent
would vote, instead Of the antici-
pated nearly 100 per cent.
Failure of the regions 5000
registered voters to turn out in
greater numbers was assigned not
only to lack of interest but to
the failure of many to pay their
poll tax.

ing ratio of returns to the normal
voting strength:
Virginia Highlands, normally
600-130; Arlington, 600-175;
