D. c. ACADEMY
BILL INTRODUCED
Senate Measure Would Al
low II Annapolis Ap-
pointments.
BY I. A. OIFARY

The first step toward giving the Dis
trlct larger number Of appointments
to the Military and Naval Academies
was taken today when Senator Walsh,
Democrat, of Massachusetts introduced
a bill under which Washington would
get IL instead of at Annapolis.
Later today or tomorrow Senator
Reynolds, Democrat, of North Carolina
will offer a companion measure to in
crease the total quota at West Point
from five to nine.
If enacted, these two bills would
place the Capital on a parity with
States that have two Senators and one
Representative.
Provisions of Existing Law.
Existing law entities each member
Of Congress to an authorized maximum
of five places at Annapolis and three
at West Point. The present policy of
Congress, however, is to make appro-
priations for only four naval appoint
ments for each congressman. or a
total of IL from State having two
Senators and one Representative.
Therefore, while the Walsh bill
changes the substantive law applying
to the District from S to IS, it was
explained that, under the present ap-
preparation policy, the actual effect Of
the bill will be to raise the number at
Annapolis from to IL.
At West Point the District is getting
all the five appointments authorized
by law, and an increase to nine is
sufficient to put the city on an equal
basis with congressional allotments
from the smaller States.
Approved BY Committee.
The Military Affairs Committee al
ready has approved the increases, and
is expected to report the Reynolds bill
without delay. 1t also favored the
Annapolis increase, but the Naval
Affairs Committee, presided over by
Walsh, will have to pass on that meas
ure as matter of jurisdiction.
If Congress ever decides to give each
member of Congress the full quota of
five instead of four at Annapolis, the
Walsh bill will enable the District to
receive IS instead of II.

EX-WIFE GETS $4,000
IN ALIENATION SUIT
Large Verdict Returned After
D. c. Woman's Case Goes
by Default.

A District Court jury today awarded
Mrs. Rose Russo $4,000 damages for
alleged alienation of her husbands
affections by his present wife, Mrs.
Vita Russo, 1880 Gale street.
The unusually large verdict was re-
turned after the case went by default
several days ago. The first Mrs Russo,
who lives at 1918 Thirty-fifth place,
told the court she married John Russo
October 10, 1917, in New York City
and that they lived together for 18
years.
She charged that Mrs. Vita Russo
alienated her husbands affections so
that he and his first wife were sepa-
rated in June, 1885. Mrs. Rose Russo
sued and obtained divorce and then
brought the present action for dam
ages.

TAX LAWYERS
WH0QUITU. 5.
PAY EYED
International News Service

AuIoEuaLlOnaA Ne"b SeENACS
Investigation of the activities Of
Government employees, who leave
the service to engage in business
as tax lawyers, today appeared
likely as an outgrowth Of the tax
hearings of the joint Senate-Ho
committee.
Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue Guy T. Helvering, acting at
the request of Senator LaFollette
(P) of Wiconsin, began compiling
a list of former employees Of the
bureau who now are engaged in
tax law practices.
While LaFollette asserted this
was one of the great problems
faced in the collection of taxes
because employees learn how taxes
may be avoided-other members
Of the committee indicated the
belief that little could be done to
meet the situation. Said Repre-
sentative Cooper CD Of Tennes-
see:
II understand that under pres
ent law two years must elapSe
before an empl0ye can practice
in tax matters. OF course, there
Is nothing to prevent him from
aiding another lawyer during
that period by furnishing infOr-
nation. It doesn't seem pos
sible to stop this by law"
The committee also is expected
to subpoena lawyers and others
who are advising taxpayers how
they may reduce taxes.
One of the exhibits placed in
the committee records is a pros
pectuS on cat ways to save taxes"
published by the Alexander Pub
fishing Company, of New York. No
charge was made that anything
fraudulent was connected with
the advice, which was published
for general sale.
During the investigation, Rep.
resentative Treadway (R.) of Mas
sachusetts, pointed out that Un-
dersecretary of the Treasury Ros-
well Hagill, noted tax authority,
collaborated on a book which
showed how taxes might be re-
duced. Magill, whose book was
written while he was out of the
Government service, distinguished
this advice from gross fraud or
evasion of taxes.
When the joint congressional
committee resumes hearings Tues
day, Bureau of Internal Revenue
officials will analyze many Of the
nearly 100 personal holding COM
panieS cited by Commissioner Hell
vering in urging revision of the
personal holding company tax law.
While under the present law
heavy taxes are laid on personal
holding m anies, Helvering
maintained, that the laws offered
a chance for wealthy taxpayers to
reduce their tax liability.

WINS HIS BET,
BUT LOSES SIS

Bert C. Smith, former service
man confined to Mt. Alto Hos.
pital, didn't collect his bet on the
big fight, even though Joe Louis
won. In fact Bert is out $75.
And Hugo Hubsch, who was a
patient in the hospital, languishes
at the Seventh precinct, charged
with larceny after trust.
Bert had $75 and a laundering
to bet it on Louis. But Bert
couldn't Leave the hospital. So he
entrusted the money to Hugo to
bet for him.
When Hugo failed to return
with the winnings after Louis
knocked out Braddock, Bert told
authorities, and Hugo was ar
