LICENSE
RUSH BEGUN HERE
Only 10000 Applications
Have Been Made, Says
Administrator.

Hundreds Of Washington's business
and professional operators today staged
a late rush to the District Building to
file their applications for licenses un-
der the revised business privilege tax
law, to escape IS penalty, which will
be assessed against all who come in
after the close of business tomorrow
An even greater last-minute rush
is expected tomorrow, since District
officials have announced there will be
no further extension of the deadline
for filing Of the returns, which nor
mally would have been due before the
end Of May.
Any license application placed in the
mails and postmarked before midnight
tomorrow will be accepted without
penalty.
The business privilege Office, on the
first floor of the District Building, was
jammed today and there was a line Of
about 100 persons strung out down the
corridor awaiting q chance to file ap-
plication for licenses.
A. F. Brooke, administrator of the
business privilege tax, estimated at
noon that not more than 10000 had
made license applications. He esti-
mated nearly 10000 applications would
be required and wondered how nearly
10000 more could get their applica-
tions to him by the end of business
tomorrow.

SALVAGE BLOCKED
8 Representatives Refuse to
Return Bill for Senate
Consideration.

An eleventh hour move to revive the
Districts compulsory taxicab liability
insurance bill was blocked in the
House late yesterday by three men,
bers-Representatives Schultz Of Indi-
ana and O'Malley of Wisconsin, DEM
ocrats, and Dondero, Republican, of
Michigan.
The House virtually killed the meas
ure Monday by rejecting its conference
report.
Senator Tydings. Democrat, of Mary
land, however, held out faint ray Of
hope that the bill might be revived
and enacted into law If the Senate re-
considered its previous action and ap-
proved the House version of taxicab
liability law. Respecting his views,
the Senate requested the House to re-
turn the bill and conference report for
further consideration, but objections
by Representatives Schultz, O'Malley
and Dondero precluded such action.
Mr.. Schultz, member of the House
District Committee, and Mr.. O'Malley
vigorously opposed the conference re-
port when it was under consideration
in the House Monday. They expressed
fears the liability insurance plan en-
bodied in the report might lead to
an insurance racket" in Washington.

A bill that will save hundreds of

The retirement bill will permit GER
tain employees in the legislative and

OF service and receive the $3o-a-year

The link, which is expected to be
presented to the Association of Old

Washington up in
Deficiency Bill.
NUMEROUS CHANGES
FACE ADJUSTMENT
$4,000 of 100000 Fund for
District Needs Still
Subject to Settlement.
By ]. A. O'LEARY.

The fate of three Federal building
projects in Washington, for the War
Department. the Army Medical Mu-
scum and the Social Security Board,
rested today with conferees on the
$295, 100000 last deficiency supply bill.
The conferees are meeting this
morning to act on numerous changes
made by the Senate before it passed
the measure late yesterday. The con-
ference report on this final appropria-
ton bill was one of the few major
subjects to be acted on as Congress
sought to cross the adjournment goal
line this evening.
The House voted $6,000000 to start
the War and Social Security buildings,
but the Senate eliminated both prof.
ects. The Senate then made last
minute amendment, adding $780, 900
to start the new Army Medical LII
brary and Museum. recently author
lied by separate bill, to replace the
existing structure at Seventh street
and Independence avenue S.W. The
final decision on all three items re-
mains to be settled in the conference
report.
Zoning Law Fund Voted.
The Senate also added late yester-
day an item of $500 to carry out
revision of the District zoning law in
q bill Just sent to the White House
for signature.
In ALL the bill carries more than
100000 for miscellaneous needs of
the District government, but only
few of these items, amounting to
about $4,000, are still subject to set
tlement in conference as Senate
amendments Most of the District
items have been adopted by both
branches without change. Included in
this category are the funds to keep
the National Training School for
Girls and the Childrens Receiving
Home open for another year while
further study of what to do with
these institutions is being made.
Fund for Auto Inspection.
There also is no dispute over the
$685. District contribution to Works
Progress Administration projects and
the s154,720 to establish two testing
stations for the mechanical inspection
of automobiles.
Several large national items await
adjustment in conference after be-
ing added by the Senate, including:
To begin Federal aid to the States
to combat venereal disease, 5000, 900;
to carry forward the cooperative farm
forestry program, $1,000, 900; for pre-
venting stream pollution, $1,000,000;
to set up machinery for enforcement
of the wage-hour law. 100000: for
additional expenses of the Bituminous
Coal Commission, s50o,Ooo, and a va
riety of smaller additions.
