ASKED BY CITIZENS

mended by Dr.. Holmes
for Action.

DR.. Chester w. Holmes, assistant
superintendent Of schools in charge
of junior high and vocational schools,
commended the Kalorama Citizens
Association last night on being the
third association to indorse Repre-
sentative Kennedy's "red rider" repeal
bill. Endorsement was voted just be-
fore he spoke.
Red rider" was first Of four points
made in q speech to the association
on educational problems and condi-
tions by DR.. Holmes. Need for a
new Jefferson High School. additional
teachers and schools and further de-
velopment of vocational schools also
were discussed.

over so years old and condemned

antiquated equipment, coupled with
the disturbing noises made In the
railroad yards not so yards away,
make it imperative q new site and
building be accomplished, he declared.
Mrs. Julius Lansburgh, vice presi-
dent Of the association, posed the
question whether social hygiene was
included in the two-year character
education program, 1896, and
whether continued character educa-
tion, including social hygiene. is con-

AVENUE EXTENSION
Northeast Association Seeks
to Relieve Congestion
at Intersection.

Seeking to alleviate traffic congestion
at the intersection of the Defense
Highway and Baltimore-Washington
Highway intersection, the Northeast
Citizens Association, meeting at the
Ludlow School, Sixth and G streets
northeast, last night resolved to petit
ton the District Commissioners and
the Park and Planning Commission to
extend Maryland avenue northeast as
far as Park road in order to permit
traffic to enter from the Defense High
way without turn.
In view of the inadequacy of park
ting space near Griffith Stadium the
association indorsed a proposal to
recommended that the proposed new
municipal stadium be erected in the
area at the end of East Capitol street
A request for the erection Of a new
bridge across the Anacostia River "in
the vicinity in which East Capitol
street and Massachusetts, avenue
southeast are located" likewise was
formulated.
In successfully urging members to
indorse the projected home or farm
for inebriates, President Evan Tucker
said: SIT is up to the citizens asso-
Citations to back the civic bodies"
Approval of a new Receiving Home
for the District was indorsed, as was
the suggestion of Assistant Secretary
of State r. Walton Moore that Great
Falls be made a national park
Discussion of the proposed abattoir
for Anacostia resulted in a dead
lock. In the interest of what is best
for the city," committee consisting
of Roscoe Jenkins, Willis E. Perry
and L. A. Jett was appointed to in
vestigate and report on the next meet
ing.
In an effort to beautify Northeast
Washington, it was resolved to ask
the superintendent of trees and parks
to replace the "consumptive" silver
NAPLES in certain areas with oak or
Norway maple trees. Areas set forth
for consideration were Sixth street,
from to H; Eighth street, from East
Capitol to H, and Maryland avenue,
from Twelfth to Fifteenth street.
Fearing the lack of peoples coun-
sci might lead to discrimination of
that office, the assembly formulated
q request to President Roosevelt and
the District Commissioners that the
Office be continued and filled as soon
as possible.
Three new members were admitted
TO the association. They were: Oliver
w. Keyes of 616 B street northeast,
Billie V. Elsner of So Eighth street
northeast and Ernest H. Oliver of
1921 Simms place northeast.

cqlled "drys" to take the initiative, it

On the contrary, it is known that

and they are prepared to take the Of

better and more uniform legislation.
In fact they probably would have al

feel that their chances of success are,

Practically every county comptrol-

that the State must have a share in

some control to make operation of

Governor Ehringhaus and all mem
bers of the budget commission signed
the report.
Inc appropriations recommends
tons for the general fund were for
pot, $4,000 for 1898 and $37. 8O2 .922
Tor 1883. Nearly 100000 of the diff
ference was accounted for in the
school funds. In 1886 actual expen-
dltures were $31, POI, 7O5 and for this
year they are estimated at $34, 483. 259.
Inc highway fund accounts include
feoeral aid contributions, and call for
$5l,435,961 in 1878 and $31 ,435, 961
IN 1858, compared with $38, 1853. 946
spent IN 1885 and $28,791, 800 esti-
mated for this years expenditures.
Aid for University
In many instances, such as for in
situations which charge fees, the leg
islative appropriations do not cover
total Institutional expenditures. The
ices IN many cases are spent on cur
rent operations. For example, the re-
commended appropriations for the
Chapel Hill unit Of the University of
North Carolina is $746, 500, it's receipts
are estimated at $1,126,O61 and it's to-
tai requirements at $1,872,7OO.
Noting that no permanent improve
ments have been made in recent
years, the commission recommended
81, 900 worth. It was proposed the
Chapel Hill unit of the University of
North Carolina get medical build
ing and other structures to cost $4O4,-
OOO; that N. G. State college get a
chemistry building and other struc-
lures to cost $312,000; and that vari-
Gus other institutions get new facili-
ties. Institutions requested $7,476,4
worth OF permanent improvements.
CognlZance is taken of the need of
additional office space in State build
lngs here by recommendation Of
$4,000 for an annex TO rthe revenue
building.
The recommended revenue act con-
talns new sections to levy taxes on
wines and beers, on gifts, and on in
tangible persona property
Only minor changes are suggested
in the present tax laws except for the
new levies and the removal of the
three per cent sales tax from retail
sales OF flour, meat, meal, lard, milk,
molaSses, salt sugar and coffee as
pledged by the Democratic party and
Governor Hoey who declared for re-
moval of the levy from "the necessi-
ties of life"
To take care of the proposed salary
increase and general expansion, in
creased appropriations were recon-
mended for practically every State of
flee, bureau, division, commission
and department.
The consolidated University of
North Carolina would get 1853, 343
the first year of the biennium and ST.

figures for the three units are: Chapel
Hill, $746,639; N. c. State, 1858, 515;
Woman's College, $343, 189 In 1886
Sc the units spent $611,O37, $279 1885,
and $243,601, respectively and for
1898 they requested $819219 SAIL

these taxes SHALL be paid by an officer
of the bank and deducted from the
depositor's account. In order to pre-
vent juggling Of funds by withdraw
ing them from the bank just before
taxing time comes round, it is pro-
vided that if the balance on January
1 is less than the average balance
shown by the depositor's monthly
statements for the previous year,
is recommended $264,200; and the
public schools.
The new section of the proposed
bill contains tax features of the pre-
sent beer law, but also includes vines,
not now taxed except under the sales
tax.

to pay license tax of $500 per year

The proposed gift tax, first of it's
kind in this State, divides loenefi-
Charles into three classes and pre-
scribes varying rates of taxation for
different brackets within the classes.
Class A beneficiaries are defined as
either Hneal descendants or ancestors
of the donor. Gifts to members of this
group up to $4,000 are exempted from
taxation. On gifts up to $1,000 in ex-
cess Of the exemption the rate is 3
per cent, from $4,000 to $4,000 the
rates rises to per cent, $4,000 to
$4,000 excess brings rate of five per-
cent and the rate on more than $4,000
excess over exemption is fixed at 6
per cent.
Class B beneficiaries are described
as brothers, sisters, nephews or nieces
OF the donor and gifts up to $1,000
are exempted. On gifts in excess of
this amount the rates are: Up to ST.
600, per cent; $4,000 to $4,000 to &c.
600, percent; over $4,000, 7 per cent

are: Up to $4,000, per cent; $4,000 to

Provision is made for taxing trans
actions where the transfer is made at

though they were gifts, the considera-
ton paid being subtracted from the

sion calls attention to the fact that in
its suggested revenue hill it has sug-
gested enough new taxes to provide
the revenue for the increase appro-
priations. These new taxes are on
wine, bank deposits, solvent credits
and intangibles. The new proposed
tax on these intangibles is made pos
sible by the enactment of the consti-
tutional amendment making possible
the classification of property. The
budget contains no provision for So
