Detective Sergt T. A. Fitzgerald Is
rapidly becoming an authority on
Dead End" boys. and he hopes he
can stand up under the education.
As head Of the lost bicycle and
motor cycle squad at police headquar-
tiers, Sergt. Fitzgerald was out making
his rounds q few days ago when he
noticed a young boy with bicycle
which didn't quite fit him.
"where'd you get the bike, sonny"
the detective asked.
After hedging a bit, the boy finally
admitted he had taken 1t without the
owners permission and intended to
sell 1t Ito q woman up the street"
More questioning and the boy de-
clared he had sold other bicycles to her
and 80 had some buddies Of his. The
upshot was that Sergt. Fitzgerald final-
ly rounded up five other boys. He's
had them ever since.
sergt. Fitzgerald, an undemonstra-
tive man, becomes almost eloquent
when he tells of his trials with ''hells
half dozen" as he has come to refer
to them.
Day in and day out, Sergt. Fitz-
gerald roams the street with his little
brood hunting bicycles. About every
three or four blocks one Of them
would start, and, rolling his eyes in
simulated amasement, declare why

SALES TAX is URGED
AS SUBSTITUTE LEVY
Columbia Heights Citizens Forum
Told Tourists Would Con.
tribute Revenue,

Substitution of sales tax for the
business privilege levy was recon-
mended by the Citizens Forum of
Columbia Heights at its meeting last
night
A. NJ Edwards, chairman of the
Committee on Taxation, contended the
tax now in effect is unjust to both
business men and citizens of Wash
ington. Mr.. Edwards. declaring a
sales tax would add approximately
s2,500,000 in revenue, called for an ad-
ditional S2.500.O00 in the Federal pay
ment to the District to overcome the
estimated deficit
He pointed out that tourists would
help pay the Districts tax bill if sales
tax is passed.
"A business privilege tax is strictly
a local proposition" he said. "and it
is only fair that some of the few cents
a sales tax entails should be provided
by outsiders"
On the motion of Miss Myrtle E.
Moore, the association favored COM
plete control Of District schools by the
School Board.
The association voted against any
addition in the gasoline tax.
On the motion of S. A. Wood. the
association opposed the increase in
the real estate tax rate to $l75.
Compulsory immunization of all
school children against diptheria, ty-
phoid and smallpox was favored by the
group at the motion of DR.. C. J..
Farnald.
