perhaps chocolate parfeit with cake and tea.

EASYTAXPAYMENT
PLAN|SSUGGESTED
Kennedy Works on Scheme
of Small Weekly Sums in
Advance for D. C..

Now Representative Kennedy, Dem
ocrat, of Maryland wants to make it
easier to pay tax bills in the Dis
trict.
Instead Of semi-annual payments,
Mr. Kennedy is working on a plan
whereby an overburdened taxpayer
can pay in advance at the rate of 81
or 50 week, depending on the amount
of the bill.
In reality, Mr.. Kennedy has in mind
a tax-savings plan such as in effect
in Baltimore. where he lives. and a
number of other cities. The object of
the plan is to spread out tax payments
throughout the year.
Under such an arrangement, taxpay-
ers either take small installments to
their banks or to the tax collectors
Office and set them up in special ac-
counts. If deposited with the tax COL
lector, the money Immediately avail
able to the city. Some of the cities
which have such plan permit dis
counts for tax bills paid in this man.
ner.
Mr.. Kennedy said his study of the
tax-savings plan has convinced him
it cuts down delinquencies and at the
same time makes it easier for a tax
payer to meet his bill when it be-
comes due.
Il have been told that many tax
payers, particularly those trying to
buy their homes, find 1t difficult to
raise 500 or 5000 in lump sum to
meet tax bills" said Mr.. Kennedy. II
believe introduction of a tax-saving
plan here in Washington might relieve
taxpayers of this nightmare by spread
ing payments"
Mr.. Kennedy was chairman of the
special subcommittee of the House
District Committee which framed the
current S9,000000 tax increase pro-
gram. He began a study of the
"make-it-easy" tax-paying plan, how
ever, in connection with plans he has
under consideration for recognizing
the District government in the inter-
est of efficiency and economy.

HOTEL GREETERS' HEAD
GIVEN RECEPTION HERE

Greetings were extended Mr.. and
Mrs. Crawford Noble, presidents of

auxiliary, respectively, by the local
greeters' organization at reception in
the Mayfower Hotel last night.
Mr.. Noble told the more than 100
greeters present as guests of Ralph
Polio, manager of the Mayhower Ho-
tel, the society should keep the hotel
on the standard where it belongs, ex-
tend hospitality in its hotels and strive
to better its position with planned ed
ucational programs for employees"
At a meeting of the local greeters,
which followed, E. p. Orbello resigned
as secretary. He said he is to take a
position with New York hotel in the
near future.

ceed Mr.. Obello, and w. L. Shoup was

tary. Charles c. Curtiss was appoint

installations, and offenders could be
forced to have their permits suspended,
to have the governor installed, or both,
Mr.. Van Duzer said.
Commissioner Hazea said today the
Board of Commissioners would look
into the matter "very> thoroughly"
He made no other comment.
Corporation Counsel Elwood Seal
stated that, while the courts recently
have shown inclination to grant broad
powers to the District government in
the passing of measures to solve the
traffic problem" he wished to go fur
ther into the law which would cover
such an enactment.
The regulation, he said, might be
regarded as unjust in cases where q
motorist drove much of the time on
Maryland highways, where the speed
limit is As miles an hour, after a gov
ernor had been placed on his car
slowing it down to % miles an hour.
Mr.. Van Duzer added that so far as
he knew this would be the first time a
State or municipality would impose
the governor regulation on its resident
motorists. He described the governor
as an automatic CUTOFF device at
tached to the carburetoe.
Evening star., 1937-11-23

A proposed regulation to put gov
ernors on the automobiles Of motorists
convicted Of speeding two or more
times may be in effect in the District
by the latter part Of December, Traffic
Director William A. Van Duzer said
today.
Conceived as q last-resort measure
to curb trafic accidents caused by
speeding, the regulation would be en-
forced in individual cases according to
the recommendations of the Board Of
Revocation and Restoration Of Opera
tors Permits.
"In cases where habitiual infraction
Of the speeding law is shown the
board may set the motorists governor
as low as % miles an hour" Mr.. Van
Duzer said.
He explained that enactment Of
such regulation was made possible
under recent decisions Of the Supreme
Court and the United States Court of
Appeals, but that its actual passage
would depend on the sanction of the
Commissioners.
The revocation board, headed by
Assistant Trafhc Director M. o.
Eldridge. would pas on the governor

With Panoramic
MOvie Camera

Capt. Fernando Chiapparelli, erst-
while journalist, soldier, diplomat and
banker, arrived here yesterday with
his revolutionary" camera, which op-
crates with revolving lens and makes
possible panoramic motion pictures
with a range as wide as that Of the
human eye.
He plans to film Washington scenery
and interiors next week. He says his
camera would make it possible to take
motion pictures of an entire baseball
game, from outfielders to spectators
behind home plate.
The film used is 10 millimeters wide
rather than the usual IS millimeters
and has q blank area wide enough for
the new "stereophonic Device" which
causes each sound to emanate from its
