SEWER WORK ON
At ROSSLYN

Work has been started on the
Rosslyn interceptor, considered by
engineering experts as the most
difficult unit Of the great $780,
900 sewer system now being car
ried on by Arlington county as a
PWA project.
The line, which, it is estimated,
will cost $3l.15 per foot to con-
struct, will tunnel for a distance
of 4,14O feet under Mackey's Hill
in order to eliminate the lift sta
ton, which designers thought
would at first be necessary to
maintain an even flow of water in
the pipes.
Raise Employed List
It was estimated by County
Manager Roy S. Braden, in charge
of the tremendous project, this
new unit would raise the total
number of men now employed
throughout the county on the en-.
terprise to more than 500, after
a conference with the Square Con-
struction Company, of Cleveland,

FORMER U. s. WORKERS FACE FRAUD COUNT
School Denied
For Boxing
Exhibit

Use of two school buildings,
one for a charity boxing exhibi-
tion, and the other for a veterans
mass meeting, was denied today
by the Board of Education.
BY a vote of four to two, the
school board refused to grant per-
mission to a group of George
Washington University students
for use of the Mckinley High
School gymnasium to stage a
boxing exhibition December Is
for the university's annual Christ
mas food drive.
The board, Nhose vote was
taken by poll, objected to grant
ing permission for the exhibition
on the ground that it included a
few professional bouts in addition
to the amateur bouts.
On the recommendation Of DR..
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent
of schools, the board voted unani-
mously to deny use of the Central
High School auditorium to the
American NationaliSts, an organi-
zation of veteran bonus payment
advocates, for a mass meeting
December 7.
DR.. Ballou based his unfavora-
BILE recommendation on a ruling
of the school board which pre-
cludes use of school buildings for
any meeting tending to create

SCHOOLS LACK
MONEY FOR
REPAIRS
Buildings Deteriorate, Due to
Inadequate Funds for Proper
Maintenance

Drastic curtailment of funds for
maintenance and repair of school
buildings within the past few
years has caused the deterioration
of many District schools, it was
revealed today by Jere j. Crane,
first assistant superintendent Of
schools.
Pointing to the deep inroads
into appropriations for this item,
Mr.. Crane declared:
at is inevitable that when
buildings do not have the proper
repairs, they deteriOrate rapidly.
Many of the major repairs
which should have been made
have had to be deferred because
of the lack of funds"
General Upkeep First
Mr.. Crane also pointed out that
in the general suffering" which
the school system has undergone
within the past few years, one of
the first and most noticeable re-
suits is in the general upkeep of
buildings.
Funds for repairs and improve
ments to the schools stood at
$492, 900 in 1882. The following
appropriation carried reduction
of $4,000, which was followed by
a more drastic reduction in 1884,
and the current budget is $375,'
600 the smallest fund ever to be
appropriated for upkeep.
The contingent fund, which
covers a large number Of main
tenance items for which no spe'
cific appropriations are otherwise
provided, and represents the only
free money available for discre.
tionary use by the Board of Edu.
cation, was also seriously cur.
tailed within recent years.
The fund has been decreased
by $55,5O0 since 1882, when Con.
gress appropriated $175,000 for
this purpose.
Show Three Examples
School officials pointed to three
examples of school buildings
which were permitted to deteri
crate because of lack of funds
to repair them as the occasion
arose.
The Kenilworth School build
ing was vacated some time age
when it was found to be in such
a state of structural deterioration
that it was unsafe to permit chill
dren to remain there.
Sometime later, the Wilson
Teachers College was also vacated
when District engineers reported
it unsafe. Repairs were made
and the building is again occu
pied.
At the same time, however, the
Ross School was entirely demol
i5hed when it was found to have
deteriorated to a point beyond
repair.

SAYS
PAIR TRIED To
FIX TAXES
Records of 2 Revenue Men in
N. Y. Also Examined in
Plot Probe

The District Attorneys office
will ask a grand jury next week
to indict two former employees Of
the Internal Revenue Bureau in
Washington on charges of fraud
and collusion, it was learned to-
day.
The Treasury Department in
the last two months has been
gathering evidence against the
pair and has turned it over to
the District Attorneys office.
George E. McNeill, assistant dis.
trict attorney in charge of Grim.
lnal prosecutions, is handling the
case.
Two Dismissed
The two, one of whom was
high-ranking official in the Inter.
nal Revenue Bureau, were dis.
missed from the Treasury Depart.
ment two months ago. The grand
jury will be given evidence in.
tedded to show they schemed with
several tax consultants in New
York to "fix" cases.
Treasury officials are now
studying records of two of their
agents in New York with view
to ascertaining what part, if any,
they had in a plot to deprive the
Government of taxes.
Tax Cases Probed
Meanwhile, agens of the intelli.
gence unit of the Internal Reve-
nue. Bureau are probing many tax
cases settled within the past year.
The investigation is under the per.
sonal supervision of Elmer L. Trey,
chief of the unit.
It is believed the men may be
involved in a countrywide con-
Spiracy to defraud the Govern
ment of hundreds of thousands
of dollars IN taxes. All cases.
therefore. in which they played
any part while in the employ Of
the Treasury Department are be-
ing carefully scrutinized.
The Treasury Department, how.
ever, has not yet found a spcific
case where the men in Washing
ton actually deprived the Gov
ernment of any tax funds.

PACKERS MUST ANSWER
CHARGE ON APRIL 9

WASHINGTON, Feb. %. (UP)
The agriculture department
brought its long fight with the
packing industry to a climax yes
terday when it cited ten large
packers on charges of conspiracy
to control retail prices.
The packers were ordered to
show cause April 9 at hearing
in Jackson, Miss. why Secretary
Wallace should not issue a cease
and desist order against their
price practises.
Wallace and the agricultural
adjustment administration have
been in frequent conflict with the
packers over processing taxes and
provisions of proposed packers
marketing agreement. Agricul-
ture officials have accused pack
ers of failing to cooperate with
the farm recovery program in va
rious ways.
Thursdays charge is the first
action ever taken under the stock
yards act of 1921, which gave the
secretary of agriculture powers
over the agricultural industries
roughly similar to the federal
trade commissions authority over
industry in general.
The complaint charges the ten
packing companies with inter-
changing information on prices,
thus permitting unreasonable
preferences and advantages to
certain purchasers of meat and
meat products" The alleged un-
fair practices have occurred in
Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama,
Arkansas and Texas, the COM
plant said. -. :,
The price practices criticised
are not dissimilar from the open
price provisions established Tor
some industries under NRA codes,
but since the packers have no code
they have no legal resort to the
notifications of some sections OF
federal monopoly laws authorized
by the recovery act.
The companies cited are Swift
& Co.. Armour & Co., Wilson &
Co., Morris G. Co., ST. Louis In
dependent Packing Co., Abraham
Bros. Packing Co. Cudahy Pack
ing Co., Jacob Dold Packing Co.,
John Morrell & Co., and Memphis
Packing Corp.

NICARACUANS
UNDER SIEGE
Action Follows Sandino's
Death; General May
Have liked Guards

MANAGUA, Nicaragua. Feb.
23. (UP).-The massacre of Gen.
eral Augustine C. SANDING, his
brother and five other persons by
national guardsmen Tuesday night
was followed by a declaration of
a state of siege throughout Mic
aragua last night.
The erstwhile picturesque rebel
and bitter opponent of United
States intervention in the little
Central American republics in
ternal affairs was shot down in
one of two raids by guardsmen.
General Anastacio Somoza,
chief of the national guard, de-
clared the guards remained loyal
to President Juan B. Sacasa. He
said they were ready to suppress
any disturbances which might
arise from Wednesday nights
shooting, which took seven lives,
including a 1O-year-old child.
Authorities, searching for mo-
tive for the shooting of SANDING
and his friends, suggested the
guards might have become irate
at recent derogatory remarks
made by the little jungle warrior
against the national guard.
A state of siege was declared
by the Nicaraguan congress at
the presidents urgent request. 1t
was feared followers of SANDING,
who have remained quiet since
he arranged a truce with the gov
eminent a year ago, might seek
revenge and cause widespread
uprisings.
Generals Estrada and Umanzor,
two of Sandino's closest aides,
were shot down in the same vol
lev that cut short his swashbuck-
ling career.

Mr.. Hollowell stated that the
advisory board was much con-
cerned about the inability of in.
vestigators to keep up with the
actual needs of those applying
for relief, there being $40 fam
lilies last week. Investigations are
in progress by a number Of temp

termine these needs. The board
and also the district supervisor,
Miss Pearl Weaver, who visited
the office this week, authorized
a letter of instructions to the
merchants who were being re-
quested to change staple food
orders to luxuries and delicacies.
1t has been reported that some
of those receiving these food Or
ders have gone so. far as to try
