Woman Is Killed
Inlee Boulevard Crash

Mrs. Helen Carr Daniels, %, was
killed early this morning when the
car in which she was riding over
turned on Lee boulevard a. quarter
of a mile beyond Fort Myer, Va,
after a collision with another car.
Mrs. Daniels is believed to live in
the 5000 block of o street.
Another of the five occupants of
the car, Mrs. Robert DeBoard, 908
G street S.W., suffered a scalp
wound, but her condition was not
considered serious.
According to Mr.. De Board, the
group was returning to Washington
from dance at Vienna, Va, when
a car suddenly appeared from a
small side road, struck them broad
side and spun their car across the
road, overturning it.
Mr.. De Board said the driver of
the car in which Mrs. Daniels was
riding was Howard Beach, 944 K
street NV Mrs. Daniels was in the
front seat with Mr.. Beach, Mr.. De
Board said, while he and his wife
occupied the rear seat with Harvey
Strickler, 6O9 G street SW
Mrs. Daniels was pulled from the
overturned car by C. A. Mathisen
a Star reporter, who rushed her to
the post hospital at Fort Myer
where she was pronounced dead
shortly after her arrival.
In her pocketbook was 2-year-
old marriage license made out to
Helen Alice Carr and James Louis
Daniels of Oakton, Va.
The driver of the other car, ac-
cording to Arlington County (Va)
police, was Sherman Ray Baggett
As, of 3518 Eighth street North, Ar
lington. Police are holding the
drivers of both cars. The coroner
was notified and the dead woman's
body was removed from the hos
pital to Clarendon (Va.) under
taking establishment.

Senate Due 10 Vote
Tomorrow on Stream,
Pollution Measures
PIons Conflict, One
Enabling U. S. Officials
To Force Compliance
BY ]. A. O'LEARY.

The Senate probably will vote to-
morrow on how the Federal Govern
ment should proceed with the prob
lem Of eliminating stream pollution
throughout the country, with two
conflicting plans to choose from.
The issue lies between the Bark
ley bill for voluntary cooperation
with local communities and private
industries, and the Clark bill, which
would 60 further In enabling Fed
eral authorities to institute injunc-
ton proceedings to prevent or abate
pollution of a stream.
Another issue the vote will deter
mine is whether jurisdiction over the
problem should be given to the Pub
lie Health Service or to the Army
Engineer Corps.
The pending measure, sponsored
by Majority Leader Barkley of Ken
lucky, designates the Public Health
Service, under which a new Division
OF Water Pollution Control would
be set up.
Clark Hits Bill as Weak.
In presenting his contention that
the Army Engineer Corps is the
logical agency to solve this, as well
as mood control and navigation
problems. Senator Clark, Democrat,
OF Missouri points out that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's reorganization plan
places public health in the new
Federal Security Agency. Senator
Clark argues from this that the
Barkley bill would have the effect
of placing stream pollution under the
Social Security Board.
Senator Clark takes the view that
the Barkley bill, being based on VOL
untary cooperation, will not ac-
complish the results sought.
Agreeing that there is no compul-
sion in his bill, Senator Barkley re-
plies that in beginning this new un-
dertaking, the Governments first
step should be taken cautiously. If,
after as much progress as can be
achieved by voluntary co-opera ton,
more drastic steps seem advisable,
Congress could then broaden the
law. Senator Barkley contends.
Both Bills Favor Grants.
Both bills would authorize loans
or grants, or both, to States, politi-
cal subdivisions and individuals for
construction of works to prevent
pollution, but under somewhat diff
ferent terms. The Barkley bill lin
its grants to one-third of the cost,
and the Clark bill makes the limit
not more than half.
Both houses passed a measure last
year based on the principles of the
Barkley plan, but the President
vetoed it because it authorized the
surgeon general to submit the loan
grant projects directly to Congress
without going through the regular
Budget Bureau channels. Senator
Barkley has changed the pending
bill to meet that objection.
The President stated in his memo
randum at that time. however. that
he approved OF establishment of the
proposed new division in the Public
Health Service and appreciated the
Importance of the results sought
to be accomplished.
The Barkley bill authorizes $780,
900 for administrative expenses of
the new division and s70O, 900 to be
used by State health authorities in
preparing project requests. No speci-
fic amount for loans and grants is
written into the bill. but that would
be determined in any event by the
appropriations committees. The first
vote will come on the Clark sub
stitute,
