A resolution reafflrming the rights
Of conscientious objectors in the
Universalist Church was prepared

Universaist Convention moved into

The resolution said "there Is a
tendency on times of war hysteria
such as the present to forget the
Christians highest allegiance is to
the law of God and not to the de-
crees of men,"
Leaders of the church said Uni
versalists were seeking for their own
objectors the same legal privilege of
members Of the Quaker church
Only a war would tell the story"

Income Levy Fought
By McKesson Trustee

Justice Department lawyers today
scrutiniZed anew the tangled af-
fairs of the late F. Donald Coster,
trying to determine whether the
one-time head of McKesson & Rob-
bins, Inc, stole money of the drug
firm on which the internal revenue
collector has assessed an additional
$500 900 income tax.
The charge that Coster, known
also as Philip Musica, took the money
was made by attorney for the trustee
of Mckesson e. Robbins in challeng-
ing the right of the collector to
make the assessment. Already the
collector has levied on a brokerage
account in Coster's name, and also
on an account in the name of his
widow.
The Justice Department an
nounced that Federal agencies are
examining data regarding the Coster
estate to clear up the situation.

Jordon' S Attorney
Claims Favorable
Evidence Withheld
Hobeos Corpus Hearing
Opens in Gorden-T
Murder Cose

Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat In
District Court today began hearing
evidence on petition for a writ of
habaes corpus in the case of Thomas
Jordon, serving a life sentence for
the murder of Mrs. Lizzie Jaynes
some years ago, on the claim that
certain evidence favorable to the
accused was withheld by the author
tiles at his trial. ..-
Mrs. Jaynes, cashier at the Gar
den-T-Shoppe, Eighteenth street
and Columbia road NV, was slain
on April 3, 1881, Good Friday, dur
ing holdup by two men. Attorney
James j. Laughlin, representing Jor-
don. contends that it was the duty
OF the prosecution to bring to the
attention of the court any evidence
relating to the guilt or innocence
OF his client. Eye witnesses to the
Staying, according to Mr.. Laughlin,
who had first-hand information and
whose testimony was favorable to
Jordon. were withheld.
Mr.. Laughlin said that the jury
which found Jordon guilty would
not have convicted him, had this
evidence been presented, as that
would have raised a doubt in their
minds. :
Produced as witnesses this morn
ing were Mr. and Mrs. Flourney
Cooper Schneider, 1853 Iris street
NV, and Mr.. and Mrs. Carlton
Long, 1851 Iris street NV. They
said that, following a theater party,
they went to the Garden T. -Shopre
on the night of the Staying and
were present when the two robbers
entered. Mr.. Laughlin said none
OF these was called as a witness at
the trial. None of the quartet was
able to identify Jordon positively
as one of the two robbers, Chief
Justice Wheat was told. =
Assistant United States Attorneys
John j. Wilson and Allen j. Krouse
described the Governments position
as being that no pertinent evidence
in the hands Of the prosecutor was
withheld and that. although the
police may have talked to persons
who were not called at the trial.
that evidence might merely be-
cumulative.

But in the Virginia auto railer's
case, the line never was able to OBJ
tain permission to run into down.
town Washington. That undoubtedly
was largely responsible for It's failure
to carry the traffic anticipated. Now
the firm admits it is in default in its
obligations and seeks permission to
cease operations.
From the company's standpoint the
commissions which must pass on its
applications could hardly take any
action other than to grant the
abandonment plea. The question
arises, however, as to how the public,
particularly in the area between West
Falls Church and Vienna, is to obtain
transportation. Citizens in the area
feel that the facilities which will re-
main if the auto railer is abandoned,
will be wholly inadequate. Some sug-
gestionS for substitute service have
been made, but the present patrons
OF the line may consider themselves
fortunate if, unlike those of many
other traction concerns, they are not

One of the most interesting

One of the most interesting ex-
periments in suburban transporta-
ton in this vicinity apparently is
about to be abandoned. The auto
railer line established in nearby Vir-
ginia a few years ago has petitioned
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion and the Virginia Corporation
Commission for permission to dis
continue service on September /.
The line, one Of the first of it's
kind In the United States, began
using the auto railers with high
hopes few years ago. Theoretically
1t was and is sound proposition.
The cars, with retractable running
gear enabling them to operate both
on rails and highways, attracted con-
siderable attention at first. Many
felt, and still do feel, that the two-in-
one vehicles could afford a solution
to many transit problems. Rails
laid at tremendous expense and now
being used less and less, could gain
more traffic, it was believed, If the
vehicles that used them also were
