A.A.A. SAYS TAXES
CUT D. c. BUYING
Auto levies Seriously A.
fecting Retail Trade,
Official Claims.

A Is per cent decrease in depart
ment store sales in Washington and
a marked lag in license plate sales
were cited today by Russell E. Singer,
general manager of the American Au-
tomobile Association, as indications
that the increased automotive taxes
are seriously affecting the purchasing
power of District residents.
Payment by Washington motorists
at this time last year already has had
serious effect, he declared, adding,
TT will be remarkable if it does not
continue to be a depressing influence
on retail buying throughout the
Christmas season"
Mr.. Singer pointed out that Wash
ington motorists are paying increased
property taxes and new weight tax,
ranging from S. to $12. The regis
tration fee payments, he said, will be
approximately $l,500,000 more than
last year.
"The motorists pocketbook is no in
exhaustible cornucopis," he said. If
he is forced to make larger allowance
for motor tax payments in his budget,
he will have to make reductions else
where. This year it looks as though
Santa Claus is the one who will come
in for the major part of the reduced
spending"
Tag sales are running 5000 behind
last year, indicating the dificulty
many motorists are having to find
cash available to meet the new
! charges, he asserted, predicting that
this years last-minute rush for license
plates will be the greatest in the Dis
trict's history.

former President of Panama, told the
Pan-American Conference last night.
The Central American statesman
addressed the third of a series Of dis
cussions sponsored by the Inter-
American Center of George Washing
ton University at the United States
Chamber Of Commerce. The topic was
the legal and political aspects of Pam
Americanism.
The fourth session, this afternoon.

the three speakers at the final session
tonight, Senor Capt. Colon Eloy Al

DR.. Alfaro said that to insure the
future of pan-Americanism "it is in
dispensable that We preserve in their
integrity the principles, the ideals, the
sentiments and the traditions of
democracy"
Thomson Presents Challenges.
Charles A. Thomson, author and
lecturer, stripped the Pan-American
ideal Of unrealities, but found beneath
the surface an opportunity for the
United States to strengthen the forces
Of democracy
He catalogued three challenges with
which the new Pan-Americanism"
confronts the Western Hemisphere:
l. Can American capital make terms
with the new nationalism in the Latin
countries?
2. Can the new Pan-Americanism
keep peace in this hemisphere?
3. Can the philosophy of democracy
withstand the philosophy of authors
| tarianism?
Judge Otto Schoenrich, former sec
| retary of the Puerto Rican Commits
sion on Revision of Laws, cited the
differences and similarities between
the American legal system, based on
common law, and the Latin system,
based upon the civil law. He also
cited the general adoption of the
American Constitution as the model
for those of Latin American coun-
tries.
Panel members were Harry Frantz

TAX |NSTALLMENT
PLAN HERE BACKED
Kennedy, Member of D. c.
Committee, Asks Seal
to Draw Up Bill.

Definite steps were taken today by
Representative Kennedy, Democrat,
OF Maryland to put into operation
in the District plan for making tax
payments easy.
MIR. Kennedy, a member of the
House District Committee, called on
Corporation Counsel Elwood H. Seal
TO study the scheme and draw up a
Dill for its introduction in Congress
II the Commissioners approve it.
The plan contemplates payment of
tax bill in advance in small weekly
lnstallments of 81 or more. It is
modeied after the so-called painless
tax-paying system in effect in Balti-
more. where Mr.. Kennedy lives.
ss Per Cent Collections.
Mr.. Kennedy sent to Mr.. Seal q
mass of data relating to the Balti-
more plan, together with records
showing how it had materially re-
duced the tax delinquent list in that
city over period of years. Balti-
more now, he said, is collecting 90
per cent of its tax revenues annually.
In Baltimore a taxpayer who
chooses to pay his tax bill on the
lnstallment plan, according to Mr..
Kennedy, is given deposit book by
the city tax collector Each week
the taxpayer makes a payment of 81
or more, and that is credited to his
account. AT the end of the year most
taxpayers who use the plan, he ex-
planned, have accumulated a sufficient
amount to pay the tax bill.
Money deposited in the tax ac-
counts. Mr.. Kennedy said, cannot be
Withdrawn for any purpose.
Confident Of Success.
Il am confident the adoption of a
similar plan in Washington" he de-
clared, will cut down the DELINQUENT
tax list just as it did in Baltimore.
1 believe, too, such a plan would be
welcomed here by many Of those tax
payers who now find it difficult to
raise sufficient revenue to pay tax
bills semi-annually.
Merchants have made it easy for
the poor man to buy furniture and
clothing on the installment plan. I
can see no reason for not extending
the installment plan to the overbur-
dened taxpayer and make 1t easier
for him to meet his obligations to the
city. In the end the District will
benefit. 1t will collect more revenue
and have the use of 1t in advance of
the now regular tax-paying months /"

Capital Housewives Aduised
To Use More Lamb and Veal
Outstanding Chef Gives
Ne,U Recipes at
Contention.

Housewives are advised to go for
veal and lamb in big way this season
by an outstanding chef, w. A. Denis
sen head of the hotel department Of
large packing house, who put on a
demonstration last night in the May
flower Hotel, showing 1000 res
taurateurs from Atlantic Seaboard
States just how to carve and prepare
meats.
Dividing America into four parts, so
far as its meat-eating habits are con-
cerned, Mr.. Denissen said the West
and Midwest are the real beef-eaters;
that the East goes more for lamb; that
the Northern States and New England
are ham-eaters, and the old South is
partial to pork.
Washington, last year. according to
this authority, led the United States
in per capita consumption OF lamb,
but it did not consume the veal pro-
portioned to 1t as city. 1t is Mr..
Denissen's contention that the house.
wives have something to learn about
the real food value contained in veal
and lamb.
He points out that most Americans
do not quite know how to cook these
two meats. For this reason, he pre-
pared several unusual recipes which
he made public last night for the first
time. Two of them have to do with
parts of veal and lamb seldom used
on the American table, the neck and
the breast
Strange to say" Mr.. Denissen re-
marked, you can make as fine dish
as the palate ever tasted out of both
neck and bones Of good veal and you
can do this simply by placing neck
and bones in boiling water, adding
one onion, one carrot and the outside
branches of one stalk of celery, q
pinch of whole mixed picking spices,
and salt.
The celebrated chef then gave the
instructions for making this dish.
Here they are:

late yesterday that word came to him
before the trial that the UNDER
world" had put price of $4,000 on

victed on charges of assault with in
tent to kill in connection with the
shooting.
