GAS DEALERS WARNED.
TO PAY BACK TAXES
Must Turn Over Part of Collections

Face Prosecution.

Corporation Counsel w. w. Bride,
acting under authority of the District
Commissioners. today served an ulti-
matum on seven local gasoline dealers
that unless payments on long overdue
gasoline taxes are paid by November
Is they would be prosecuted in both
criminal and civil courts.
Taxes totaling $50,00O are involved
in the failure of the dealers to turn
over to the District collections of the
tax of 2 cents a gallon on sales made
to their customers. One dealer. the
Commissioners we're informed yesterday,
has not paid any tax to the District
since last January and others are sew
eral months delinquent.
The dealers are subject to criminal
as well as civil action. since the deal
ers in effect act as collection agents
for the District government in the levy
ing of the 2-cent gasoline sales tax.
Bride is notifying the delinquent
dealers they must pay at least Is per
cent of the past due taxes by November
IS if they wish to avoid prosecution.

"KHAKI SHIRTS'' MOVE DESCRIBED
AS MERE SHIRT-SELLING RACKET

The Secret Service is observing" the
activities of the so-called khaki shirts
march and, despite the reported dis
covery of firearms on a group of mem
bers of the army in Philadelphia, is
about convinced the whole movement
was launched merely as shirt racket" "
Chief William H. Moran Of the Secret
Service said the raid in Philadelphia on
the meeting place of the self-styled
khaki shirts was purely police
matter" He did not appear impressed
by the fact several pistols and knives
were found by the raiders.
I'VE have been observing this move
ment and it looks to us as though the
whole business is Just shirt-selling
racket" Moran declared today.
"At least, we have found that Art
Smith, organizer of the march, has ad-
vised members to buy their shirts and
other equipment direct from him or his
headquarters, rather than in the open
market"
Evening star., 1933-10-12

Moran said his men are keeping close
watch on the movement, in view of
the announced intention of the group
to march on Washington, presumably
with view to staging demonstration
at the White House. Smith has said
the army plans to proclaim President
Roosevelt dictator of America"
The Secret Service chief said his in
vestigators are not actively interested
in the march plans, except in so far as
they have to do with demonstration
at the White House. He said he had
no information as to the strength of
the army, but understood some of the
marchers we're due to reach Washing
ton today He said the march was pri-
marily police problem and referred
inquirers to Inspector S. w. Burke,
chief of the Police Department De-
tective Bureau.
At the Department of Justice it was
said no investigation Of the khaki shirts

j. s. SUPPORTS BAN
ON REARMED REICH
FOR TRIAL PERIOD
Status During Second Phase
of Treaty Still Debated
by "Big Three"
BY PAUL SCOTT MOWRER.

By Radio to The Star.
GENEVA, Switzerland, October 12.-
The United States reached an agree
ment with Great Britain and France
at noon today on the principle there
shall be no German rearmament during
the trial period of probably four years
under the disarmament treaty.
The question of the German claim
to rearm in so-called defensive arms in
the second period of the treaty Is still
a subject of debate, but the British and
the French now tend to favor the
American viewpoint that, in the inter-
ests of world peace, Germany must be
treated equitably.
The situation is tense In Geneva.
Great Britain, France and the United
States conferred privately all day yes
terday, both among the delegates and
among the experts. The immediate
question is. what to do when the gen.
eral disarmament commission recon-
venes Monday.
Simon in Ugly Mood.
British Foreign Minister Sir John
Simon has come back from London In
an ugly mood. He seems determined
to force a showdown with the Germans.
He says openly that Great Britain is
unable to make the same concessions
to the government of Chancellor Adolf
Hitler as to the previous German gov
ernment. He holds strictly to the prin-
ciple of no German rearmament OF any
description.
cir Iohn even seems nrenared- il the
Germans make further difficulties, to
proceed with the drafting of a treaty
anyway, on the theory that, If the Ger
mans then reject the draft. they would
still be bound by the treaty OF YER
sailles disarmament clauses.
The French say that they have
reached the limit of their possible con-
cessions, but beyond this they are keep
ing quiet, leaving the leadership II
the diplomatic offensive to Great Brit
ain. Italy is also lying low.
The Germans in this dangerous pass
unable to break the Franco-Britisf
front, seem to have concentrated or
the Americans. hoping by pleas fol
justice and reassurances OF good lnten-
tions to win their sympathy and ever
the support of the American delegation
Americans Favorably Impressed.
There is no doubt the American!
have been favorably impressed with
these recent German advances. The
showdown idea is unpopular with the
United States 1t tends to think that
the negotiations should continue on 6
give-and-take basis. The American
delegation fears that otherwise Ger
many may bolt the conference again
and plunge the world politically into
chaos.
These American misgivings are being
misinterpreted in certain quarters a.

James Ring. rent research
assistant to the Public Utilities
Commission, expected to begin to-
day the transmission to several
property owners here Of recon-
mendations OF the commission for
reductions in the rents they are
charging for their houses.
Ring planned to confer per-
sonally with the owners of the
various houses and declared he is
expecting 100 per cent coopera-
ton" in the matter.
Five Rentals Found High
So far the commission has
adopted recommendations calling
for reduction of tie rent charged
for five houses on which COM
plants of high rent have been
made, and has decided one rental
to be fair as it stands.
All recommendations so far
affect only houses, but Ring
expects the commission to hand
down its first opinion involving
an apartment rental within the
next 48 hours.
Apartments Offer Puzzle
One problem which now con-
fronts the group is whether, in
ruling on a complaint involving a
single apartment in building,
the entire building or only the
one apartment should be in
cluded.
Ring today asked the commits
sion to give him the assistance
of it's accounting staff in tabulat-
ing the facts and figures he has
obtained in his rent survey thus
far.
