Tug,velU's Daughter, II, to Help
Dogs attain abundant Life

Marcia Tugwell, 12-year-old daugh-

Rexford G. Tugwell, today launched
an enterprise to afford dogs the more

Marcia is conducting dog laundry
for pets in the neighborhood of the

folders embellished with dog pictures
cut from magazines, they distribute
them throughout the neighborhood.
Thus far, however, they have had
no customers, only promises. In the
interim they practice almost daily on
the Tugwell bull pups, Sary and
Jumby, and the Cottrell chow, Flu
Manchu. As o result, Sary, Jumby
and Flu Manchu have been nearly
washed away.

SUM ST ,286, 1897 INCREASE
OVER HOUSE MEASURE
Provisions Made for Court Build
ing, Chain Bridge and East
ern High School.
BY J. A. O'LEARY.

With the Federal share restored to
the budget figure of s5,700,000, the
1887 District appropriation bill was
reported out by the Senate Appropria-
tions Committee today, carrying a
total of s43, 3,86o.l29.
This is an increase of 81 ,286, 1897
over the House bill, which passed more
than month ago, containing s42,573,-
283, but with a Federal payment of
only S2,700,O00, which would have
left the District facing huge deficit
for the coming year.
The Senate Committee retained the
several construction projects the House
had inserted over and above budget
estimates, including $4,000 to begin
q new Police Court Building. $250,00
to commence reconstruction Of Chain
Bridge, and $3.50 to enlarge East
ern High School.
Reductions Restored.
In addition, the Senate committee
restored generally reductions the
House had made in numerous miscel-
laneous maintenance items and put
in several new items not in either the
budget or the House bill.
High lights Of the Senate revision of
the bill are:
Character education. $7S,660, re-
stored for another year.
Fifty additional men allowed the
Police Department.
To improve conditions at the Ma
tional Training School for Girls,
100000.
For an addition to Alice Deal Junior
High School, S165, 900.
For stadium and athletic field at
Woodrow Wilson High School, S83, 900.
The Senate committee did not go
above budget estimates for public
health and hospital maintenance, but
did restore cuts the House had made
in the budget figures for these pur-
poses.
Remove Threat of Deficit.
The Senate changes remove the
threat of deficit under the House
bill and give Washington substan-
TALLY balanced budget on the basis of
continuing the Federal payment at
this years figure of s5,700,000.
The committee authorized the offer
ing of two amendments on the floor
of the Senate, one to permit installa-
ton Of automobile parking meters on
District streets. and the other to re-
quire snow removal from sidewalks
These were part of a group of pro-
posed amendments District officials
had submitted for consideration fol-
lowing hearing on traffic problems
10 days ago.
The Senate committee struck out
the House proviso which would have
prevented District officials or employees
who received s2,400 or more year
from engaging in any outside employ
ment. This rif.er would have been eS-
pecially serious in the health and well
fare activities, where, it was feared.

Much to distress OF Democratic

Uould be REUSED. Emphasis on
taring undistributed profits Uas
made. although companion sugges-
ton OF bringing dividend income

After nearly t,Do months OF de-

Committee reported bill yesterday.
Legislation noD ranks Uith relief

barring adjournment OF Congress.
BY the Associated Press.
Estimating the revenue yield al
s803 900, 900, the Ways and Means
Committee majority formally recon-
mended its new tax bill to the House
today as a means of correcting 1.-THE
greatest defect in our present system
of taxation"
The Republican minority already
had called the tax plan drafted or
President Roosevelts suggestions "a
vicious threat to the stability of busi-
ness and employment"
The opposing views foretold the
heated controversy into which the
249-page bill headed as leaders sci
aside tomorrow for opening debate.
The Democratic committee ma jority
filing its report on the bill, said the
new plan of taxing corporation nei
income, with rates fixed according tt
the proportion of earnings undistribut.
ed, would provide the remedy for the
major defect in the existing tax system
by which "surtaxes on individuals are
avoided by impounding income ir
corporate surpluses."
Method Of Taxation.
Chief purposes of the proposed
change in the method Of taxing
corporate incomes, the report said
were:
To prevent avoidance of surtax BY
individuals through the accumulation
Of incomes by corporations; to remove
serious inequities and inequalities be-
tween corporate, partnership. and in
dividual forms of business organiza-
tions, and to remove the inequity as
between large and small shareholders
resulting from the present fat cor
porate rates.
The committee majority conceded
that its tax program would not come
up to the revenue requirements out
lined by President Roosevelt for the
next three years. Mr.. Roosevelt's sug-
gestion that processing taxes be In.
cluded was omitted entirely.
The report said the new corpora
ton tax system is estimated to pro-
duce an average of at least $500 ,000,.
600 in additional revenue annually
