The officer. in plain clothes, said

subsequently used his own fists quite
q bit"-the hacker was subdued.

NEGLIGENT
HOMICIDE BILL
Senate District Committee
Also Favors P. W. A.
SmaII-Courts Loan.

The proposal to create new Of
fense, negligent homicide" in fatal
automobile accidents, and the bill to
authorize P. w. A. loan for the
small courts building program in Ju-
dietary Square, were the most impor-
tant of six local measures reported
favorably by the Senate District Com
mittee late yesterday.
The three other bills approved were:
To provide steps for the prevention
of blindness in infants born in the
District; to authorize the granting
of a healing arts license to DR.. PAX
Chu Chan; to authorize the Smoot
Sand g. Gravel Co. to lay pipe lines
under certain streets, and a bill to
provide for the payment of compen-
sation by the District to retired
Army officer serving as military in
structor of the local high school Ca
diets.
Manslaughter Only Charge.
Corporation Counsel Prettyman
told the committee that at present
drivers of cars in fatal accidents can
only be charged with manslaughter.
Since this carries maximum pen
atty of Is years, he said, juries are
reluctant to convict unless there is
wanton and willful neglect. Man.
slaughter also requires grand jury
indictment.
Negligent homicide would be a
misdemeanor and, therefore, trials
could be held more quickly, either in
Police Court or District Supreme
Court. The penalty would be not
more than one year nor more than
$1,000, or both. Convictions would
be easier to obtain with these penal
ties, Prettyman said.
Also, If person was tried for man
slaughter, the jury could, in its dis
cretion, render a verdict Of negligent
homicide.
Municipal Center Step.
The small courts bill is, in reality,
the first step toward modifying the
original Municipal Center program,
which the Commissioners and Sen
ator King agree was planned on too
grandiose q scale for the District to
finance. This measure allows the
Commissioners to apply to Public
Works Administrator Ickes for loan
of $2,800, 900 to erect three buildings
in Judiciary Sqaure to provide much
needed accommodations for Police,
Juvenile and Municipal Courts.
The plan also may make provision
for the Recorder of Deeds Once.
Divorce Bill Studied.
The bill to broaden the grounds fsr
divorce in the District was turned over
to Senators Copeland of New York,
Reynolds Of North Carolina and Cap
per of Kansas for study.
The measure to create q lunacy
commission, to modernize the court
procedure in such cases, will be sub
ject of hearings soon by subcommit-
tee headed by Senator McCarran.
Senator'S King and Capper were des-
ignated to make arrangements for the
printing of the voluminous report of
william A. Roberts, on proposed reor-
ganization Of the District government.

COSTS FREEDOM
Probationer Seized in At
tempt to Rob Two Filling
Station Men.

A Police Court probationer, released
only two weeks ago following his arrest
for carrying a gun, was captured in
an attempted filling station hold-up
last night by two attendants who
turned the tables on him after he
had prodded them into a wash room
with a gun and was trying to lock
them inside.
The young hold-up man blundered
and was collared when he half opened
the door and thrust an arm inside
to tumble for a key within reach OF
his prisoners, Guy Allen Legg, "a, of
1101 Euclid street, manager Of the
station. and Charles Wilson, %, of
225 Fifth street southeast, an at
tendant.
On Years Probation.
The bandit identified himself as
Henry H. Taylor, "a, of Wilmington,
N. c., and admitted to police of No. 4
precinct that he was arrested in the
same precinct March for carrying a
pistol and received a years probation
in Police Court March 13.
At that time Taylor was arrested by
Policeman w. D. Perry. who found
him sitting in an automobile belonging
to another man, with gun in his
pocket. Judge Isaac r. Hit placed
Taylor on probation on the latter's
promise to return to his home in
Wilmington and to write to the pro-
baton officer at regular intervals.
Taylor told court attaches he bought
the gun ''as protection from bandits, a"
explaining he worked at various filling
stations in Washington and Bethesda,
Md, since coming here three weeks
ago.
When Taylor thrust his arm inside
the wash room door last night his
victims laid hold of him,
threw him to the floor and took his
gun. Legg then held Taylor on the
floor while Wilson telephoned for po-
lice.
ASKS 10 be SnOt.
Meanwhile, the bandit begged for
his freedom, and when Legg refused,
asked: Shoot me, then; don't want
the police to get mel"
While the scuffle was in progress
a passer-by, Joseph M. McCorry, an
elevator operator at the Capitol, Of
the 300 block of Seventeenth place
ran in to assist Legg and
Wilson. Wilson at first mistook Nc
Cory for an accomplice and was
about to swing on him with shovel
when the man explained his presence.
Legg and Wilson were alone in the
Office Of the station when the bandit
strolled in. "All right, I will take
charge here" he said.
What's the matter; are you crazy?"
demanded Legg.
in reply Taylor, the attendants said,
thrust a gun in their ribs and ordered
them into the wash room. Taylor
was being held for investigation today.
