.LOUDOUN DECIDES
ON S1O,O(DDL0AN
Delayed Tax Payments
Force Action by County
Supervisors.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
LEESBURG, Va, August 28-Tar-
diness or inability of property owners
in paying taxes made it necessary
for the Loudoun Board of Supervisors,
meeting here yesterday, to authorize
Treasurer Howard W. Cole to negoti-
ate q loan In an amount not to exceed
$4,000. Mr.. Cole explained that
the loan would be temporary one to
tide the county over until November.
The treasurer added that 1t was the
first time in his three years in Office
that loan had been necessary to
meet pay rolls and other county obli-
cations. In past years the county
has borrowed frequently from
Loudoun banks to enable it to meet
budget obligations toward the close
Of the tax year.
Care Of Sick Poor Costly.
Care of the INDECENT sick continues
to exceed budget appropriations, the
board learned when called upon to
satisfy claims against it by the
Loudoun County Hospital. Clerk
E. o. Russell submitted figures to
show that payments to the hospital
for the care Of persons sent there
by the county has in the first six
month period Of the fiscal year ex-
ceeded the entire ALLEGATION in the
budget for the 12-month period. To
date the county has paid to the hos
pital $1,843.87, which exceeds by
$143.87 the $1,70o appropriation made
for this purpose for the entire fiscal
year.
Further Cuts "Inevitable."
Members Of the board said they
could see no hope Of continuing
county financing on the existing
basis. Further slashes In pay rolls
and other expenses or an increase in
the rate Of taxation is inevitable,
they said. Loudoun now has what Is
said to be probably the lowest county
rate in Virginia. Board members in
sist that the county live within its
income. Additional pay cuts will be
probably the answer, they said.
The board approved the salary Of
81 800 year for Commonwealth
Attorney John Galleher, recently
fixed by the State Compensation
Board in Richmond.

LORTON'S PRISONERS
HELD WELL TREATED
Food and Housing Status Lauded
by Dan Sultan After
Inspection. 4- a.

The prisoners at the District Re-
formatory at Lorton, Va, seem well
fed, well housed and well treated, En-
gineer Commissioner Dan Sultan said
late yesterday, after a personal in
spection of the institution.
Although large number of in
mates of the reformatory created a
ruction a year ago in a protest over
the food there, Col. Sultan said he
had seen Army camps, in peace time
as well as during war, that wouldn't
compare with conditions he observed
yesterday.
Like other administrative officials of
the District, however, Col. Sultan
would like to see the walled" group
of buildings completed as soon as pos
sible to enable prison officials to cope
with any attempted break from dis
cipline.

During this season, as Christ
mas approaches. everyone is busy
with Yuletide preparations. Trees
are in place and other decorations
appropriate TO the occasion will be
distributed throughout homes. stores,
churches. schools and everywhere,
and unless great "a is exercised,
the added fire hazards which ac-
such decorations and I'M
usual activity will cause unnecessary
pain and sorrow" says Fire Chief
T. p. Sarran.
Take, for instance, the case last
year in the Sanford home, where
decorations Of quick burning
had been used p~rofusely
and the tree was a sight TO delight
the eye Of young and old. The gifts
had been opened, Sc that heaps OF

The latest freak event Is report
ed by Pilot A. Casio, who had the
distinction Of running into a fish
In midair.
Pilot Casio's unusual event

while the plane vas stopped at

TO the cage when some bird at
tackled 1t. The bird was recaptur-

Pilot Casio was flying between
Vera Cruz and Manhattan, and
was forced TO fly low because Of
q low ceiling. He was skirting the
coast line.
He observed a short distance
ahead OF the plane some gulls
apparently feeding, and they scat
tered as the plane approached.
One flew over the plane, and sim
ultaneously the pilot observed a
( ish strike against the window Of
the plane.
Scales were left on the window
by the fish which was "~spattered
ON the glass.
The gull had evidently released

In the presence Of a court steno-

forced travel, constant questioning
and incarceration in Bossier City,
Coushatta and Baton Rouge.
Officers who arrested the men
and who. the pair said. kept them
In custody, were State Highway
Patrolmen Roy Terry. d. 3. walker
and j. L. Atkins. They assist
ed In almost constant questioning
by three other men whom Baten
and Hull said represented them

revolved about supposed hot oil"
shipments from East Texas. they
said.
To w. 3. Massey, his attorney.

From the time Of his arrest

Hull, were given no food Massey
said. Terry. they told me. later
apologized for this and said he was

would provide meals.
Some time Monday night, Baten
said. three men came up and, ap-
pearing by their words and actions
TO be city officials arranging for
the release Of their prisoners, fired
question after question at them.
These same men Tuesday identi-
fled themselves as federal men and
asked Baten repeatedly how much

SITUATION

TOKYO. Dec. 2i.-P-Japanese
newspapers charged American obs
tinacv' with responsibility FRIDAY
f. the breakdown Of tri-power ma
val conversations as Emperor Hiro-
hito signed documents abrogating
the washington treaty.
For Japan there can be no turn
ing back on the road leading her
outside the scheme Of naval stabil-
ity established In the washington
and London treaties. as the docu-
ments bear His Majesty's own seal
and are irrevocable.
The chief question now confront
ing the government is TO select the
most expedient time to notify the
state department In Washington OF
her denunciation.
That Japan Is still watching the
London situation closely while
choosing a date for the notification
vas indicated In ar announcement
by Koki Hirota. foreign minister.
that Hirosi Saito, ambassador to
the United States, would consult
Tsuneo Matsudaira. ambassador to
london. before making an appoint
ment with Secretary OF State Cor
dell Hull.
The foreign office Is preparing to
seize the occasion Of notification,
which probably will be on December
~. to issue a statement TO the ma
ton declaring that denunciation OF
the treaty was actuated by the most
peaceful motives. The statement Is
designed to lessen friction between
the powers and stabilize peace In the
the east.
Before Emperor Hirohito carried
out the recommendation made to
him by the privy council, the cabinet
approved and counter signed the
