suggestions which might tend
TO simplify the actual operation
Of these regulations.
"The writer is at your dis
pOsal for q discussion, either
from the standpoint Of the en-
plOyer or employe, and will be
glad to meet with you at your

1T is the earnest desire of

your cooperation is most earn
estly desired"
The act provides for a one per
cent tax on payrollS for the year
1885. The tax provisions will be
stepped up to two per cent in 1887
and three per cent in 1888.
Details PuZzIing
Regarding numerous details in
connection with the admins

puzzled.
z. Barrett Prettyman, Corpora
ton Counsel, admitted today that
many changes probably will have
to be made before we can On

Some difficulty in interpreta-
tions of parts of the act is fore
seen. Definitions of the words
employer" employment" and
services" likewise will arise to
plague officials in charge Of ad-
ministration.
Mr.. Prettyman has, in the main,
laid down broad general principles
for the guidance of District mer-
chants, but specific applications
OF the law remain to be worked
out.
There seemed to be some mis-
understanding today regarding
payment to be made by mer-
chants with eight or more en-
ployes. Merchants with eight or
more employees are covered by
the provisions Of the National
Security Act to which they must
contribute. Some merchants be-
lieved, therefore, they would be
forced to contribute not only to

total contribution to the local un-
employment insurance fund.
Returns Weekly
According to the tentative draft
to be filled out by the employer,
returns of hours worked by en-
ployeS must be made weekly. EN-
ployerS also will be requested to
show the exact nature Of their
business, the approximate num-
Der of employees on their pay roll
as of November /, 1885, whether
the firm is or is not incorporated,
how many Of their workers are
required to perform their serv.
ices outside Of the District Of
Columbia and whether headquar-
terS Of the company are located
within the District.
Workers would be required to
fill out blanks giving in detail
their salaries, age, name. of en-
ployers, whether they work for
one or more employers and the
nature Of their employers busi'

. Mr.. Prettyman explained that
merchants in washington with
eight or more employees will be
credited up to 80 per cent of
their payments to the local un-

the remaining 10 per cent of

LEGAL GAMING
AGAIN URGED
BY JURY

UPPER MARLBORO, Nd, oct.
23.-Sentiment in favor Of legal.
lied gambling In Prince Georges
county gained momentum today.
For the second time In a year,
a grand jury has confessed in its
report Of its inability to get evi.
dence on illegal gambling, al.
though acknowledging that it ex.
lists. Peculiarly, a foremen for
both of the iuries came from
HyattSville, neighboring a house
once noted as the most famous
gambling den between Atlantic
City and Miami.
Favored by COckey
The jury report finds a major
ity of the county commissioners
In its favor. One of them, Capt.
Vinton D. Cockey, Of Laurel, said:
"Legalized gambling IL the
best way to avoid q number Of
bad conditions we are con.
frOnted with now I'm in favor
Of it." .- --.-
Perry Boswell, Of Mt. Rainier,
president of the board and .
leader in the fight to close Jimmy
LaFontaine's BladenSburg white
house." refused to comment on
the report.
Clergymen continued steadfaSt
In their stand against legalized
gambling.
Political leaders decried efforts
to make it a personal or one
party issue. Sta,e Senator L. G.
SaSScer, president Of the Mary
land Senate, intimated that his
delegation will hold hearings on
legalized gambling at the jan
uary session Of the legislature.
Mark for Liberalism
John White of Colmar Manor,
Of the county delegation to the
Legislature, declared the jury'S
attitude another mark in the ad-
vance of liberalism. Mr.. White
pointed out that Marylanders will
vote on lotteries at the next gen.
eral election, a vote which should
demonstrate the popularity Of
legalized bling and deg-race.
He termed the issue a party
rather than q personal one.
The Prince Georges Circuit
Court grand Jury reported late
yesterday:
Indications are that gam
bling exists in the county, but

lutely unable to obtain any
evidence. We, therefore, recon-.
mend that gambling be legal.

While G. D. Thatcher, G. o. P.
county head, has made no secret of
his intention to withdraw soon, OBJ
servers equally are confident that
the Democratic leader, William w.

that by withdrawing now, party

later than February. He has taken
