After considerable bucking, the
congressman indicated they would
try to put through the new corpor-
alton taxes, with some modifica-
tions. Some saw the agreement as
smart politics, because it would
put the new tax load on a few
thousand persons for the present.
But others were sensible enough
to remember that every dollar in
taxes collected from industry
comes, in the end, from the same
place-the man who buys the
finished article. And when they
added to that the fact that every
penny in new taxes reduces the
real purchasing value of the con-
sumer's income, and thereby low
ers the standard Of living, they
began to think. more and more
about the necessity of cutting the
high expenditures which are re-
sponsible for the new taxes.

Be Anything Father Wants
Me to Do"

James Roosevelt, Oldest son of the
President, who recently was commits
stoned a lieutenant colonel in the
Marine Corps Reserve, said today he
will take over his new job at the
White House next Wednesday.
He was questioned by reporters as
to the nature of his new duties, and
replied. "I'll do anything father wants
me to-" The President previously
had said his son would help out
with odds and ends.
Published reports that the Presi-
dent might place his son on the active
iist of the Marine Corps were de-
scribed as erroneous by Navy Depart
ment authorities. It was explained
the law makes no provision for a
Reserve lieutenant colonel on the
year-round active list.
Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt, who is 80, has
severed his connection with an in
surance firm. He will occupy an
Office recently vacated by Steve Early,
one of the presidential secretaries,
who has moved into an Office formerly
used by the late Col. Louis Howe.
Young Roosevelt accompanied his
father on his recent South American
tour. It was believed he will be
permitted to draw lieutenant
colonels pay for at least a month
of the time he spent on the cruise
and q captains pay for the rest of the
time.

Gently, of course. The mistake was not

Apparently Mrs. Prichett and an

Everybody concerned is naturally
distressed about the incident. The

JUDGES APPROVE T..
PROCEDURE SHIFTS
IN POLICE COURT
Proposal to Create Office of
"Public Defender" Held
Advisable.
FIVE POINTS OFFERED
BY CURRAN ADOPTED
Two Others to Get Further Study.
Way to Speed Traffic Cases
Is Advanced.

Creation Of the Office Of public de-
fender" was one of five reforms ap.
proved by Police Court judges late
yesterday at special meeting called
to bring court procedure up to date.
Another improvement would change
the name of Police Court to "City
Court of the District of Columbia"
Still another would lessen the incon-
venience of persons interested in a
case in Traffic Court, who frequently
must wait hours before the case is
called.
In adopting five of seven points
suggested by Judge Edward M. Cur
ran, the judges agreed that a public
defender should be appointed to repre-
sent defendants in criminal cases who
cannot afford to hire an attorney. The
public defender would appear only for
those unable to provide their own
counsel.
Traffic Case Delays.
It was said that witnesses and de-
PENDANTS in Traffic Court would be
saved much time and trouble by q
system Of staggered hours for calling
their cases.
Judge Curran declared that cour-
tesy to the public demands that this
change be made. This point was ap-
proved, however. with the proviso that
1t be discussed further with Police
Chief Ernest w. Brown and other in
terested officials.
Another point approved was estab-
lishment of a division of records and
statistics to keep the public informed
as to what the court is doing. This
would entail keeping a complete sta
tistical record and would require that
all judges make a monthly report to
the Attorney General.
A suggestion for a standing Bar
Association Committee on the Police
Court also was approved. Judge Cur.
ran declared that such committee
will give material assistance to the
court, and be of value in reference
to policy and administration. 1t was
suggested that regular meetings be-
tween the judges and such a COM
mittee be held.
Uniform Penalty System.
The judges discussed system OF
uniform penalties in the traffic branch,
but the question was continued fo7
further consideration.
The seventh suggestion in Judge
Curran's reform plan, the establish.
ment of behavior clinic, was passed
for further study by the judges
Judge Curran expressed the opinion
that a behavior clinic sis as necessary
to the successful treatment of crime
as diagnosis In the successful treat.
ment of disease"
The functions of the behavior clinic
would be to furnish the court in.
formation as to the individuals family
and personal history. his education

mental factors, with a view to the
possibility of restoring him to society
