Building Laborers'
Meeting Is Called
To Take Strike Vote
Increased Wage
Scale Will Be Sought
At PorIey Monday

Washington union building la
borers, seeking an increased wage
scale, will take a strike vote at a
meeting scheduled for Monday
night, George Morgan, financial sec
retary, said today.
Like the union carpenters, who
voted last week to strike but held
up action pending further negotia-
tions, the laborers have sought un-
successfully to obtain a contract
with the Master Builders Associa-
ton calling for higher pay.
The laborers' union, Mr.. Morgan
said, is seeking an increase of 10 cents
an hour for common laborers and
IS cents an hour more for semi
skilled workers. The present scale is
10 cents an hour for both groups.
About 1900 laborers would be af-
fected, Mr.. Morgan said. Should the
carpenters and laborers strike, it
has been pointed out, virtually all
the major construction work in the
Washington area would be tied up.
A conference is scheduled tonight
between the carpenters and build
ers. The conference was requested
by William j. Kelly of Indianapolis,
an international vice president of
the Carpenters Union. Beginning
at pm. it will be held in the Office
of Frank j. Sheehan, secretary of
the Master Builders Association, at
1709 street NV. Committees rep
resenting the carpenters and the
builders will participate.

Voters Still May Register
In Nearby Virqinia

Persons now under age but who
will attain their majority prior to
the November 7 elections in nearby
Virginia may still pay their poll
taxes and register, it was pointed
out today by election officials.
Any person who will be 81 prior to
the August l primaries and who has
lived in the State for one year and
the county for six months previously
may register and vote in the Demo-
cratic primary. Registration dead
lines for the general November elec-
tions are 80 days in advance, but
persons who will be 81 on or before
November may pay the 1910 poll
tax and register by October 7.
Meanwhile, in nearby Arlington
County, the treasurer's office an
nounced that 1882 persons had
paid their poll taxes this year for
1898. However, it was pointed out,
not all of these will be qualified
voters, because of their failure to pay
in previous years.
There were 9,312 persons who paid
their 1891 poll taxes in 1935-the
year in which the last county Offices
election was held-but only about
$500 were qualified to vote in 1885
On this basis it was predicted that
approximately 10000 persons will be
qualified to vote in November in
Arlington.

New Taxicab Limit
Bill Introduced
By McArd|e
400 for Eoch 100, 900
Population Is Aim
Of Measure

Chairman McArdle of the Public
Utilities Subcommittee of the House
District Committee today introduced
new bill authorizing the Public
Utilities Commission to limit the
number of taXicabs in the District
At an executive session of the sub
committee this morning he obtained
the approval of Representative
Byron, Md; Schwert. N. Y; Sc
combe, Ohio, other members of the
subcommittee, to favorable report
on this bill which will be presented
to the full District Committee at
its next meeting, probably June /.
The new bill limits the number of
taxicabs to a maximum of 400 for
each 100000 population and taxicab
drivers licenses to maximum of
900 for each 100000 or a fewer num-
Der in the discretion of the Public
Utilities Commission.
Hearings Are Assured.
Public hearings on any such eXer-
else of discretion by the commits
sion is assured The bill prohibits
issuance of licenses until the utility
commissioners have established
maximum. This measure would
freeze licenses and prevent the issu-
ance of new licenses and prevent
trading in licenses by powerful
groups seeking to accumulate them.
1t insures the use of licenses for
the sole benefit of their owners until
the limitation is achieved. Arbitrary
revocations to achieve the limita-
ton is prohibited.
Nc McArdle explained that this
measure seeks to insure the con-
tinuation of individual ownership as
check on monopolistic practices
toward the benefit of the public.
The new bill revokes licenses of
taXicabs repossessed. Mr.. McArdle
points out that as in most instances
these licenses were paid by indi-
vidual drivers. this should not work
hardship on conditional vendors
reposSessing the cabs. 1t does not
prevent the conditional vendee from
taking out another license if he is
able to purchase another club.
Hits Ruthless Mergings.
The bill seeks to prevent ruthless
repossession for fleet operation and
to guarantee that the cabs will re-
turn to the hands of individual op-
orators.
The new bill also requires issuance
of licenses for individually owned
taxicabs to owners or conditional
purchasers. This section is aimed
directly to balk the use of taxicab
licenses by finance companies and
other as lever to control the in
dustry in Washington.
The subcommittee felt that this
bill would be effective to drive from
the streets small number of per-
sons who now attempt to hold two
jobs and risk, through physical de-
terioration, becoming menace to
public safety.

D. {. Tax Proposals
Endorsed by A. U. ".

Calling recommendations of Rep
resentative George Bates, of Mas
sachusetts, regarding proposed rev.
enue legislation for the District as
the most constructive plan sug-
gested by any one" the Legislative
Committee of the Washington
branch. American Association of
University Women, today announced
a campaign to present his recon-
mendations before other civic
groups.
Revisions suggested by Repre-
sentative Bates in the tax measure
would eliminate a sales tax which
the A. A. U. w. opposes.
The A. A. U. w. group also ex-
pressed concern that the tax bill
has not yet been reported out of
the House Subcommittee and has
mapped plans to investigate the
status of the measure.
The A. A. U. w. Committee, which
for several years has opposed other
than that based on ability to pay,
believes the Bates proposals meet
its requirement.

Man Sentenced
To Life in Assault
Accused as Sniper
Montgomery Prosecutor
Asks Second Trial
To Bring Out Facts

An effort to prove a 25-year- old
colored man sentenced to life i'm
prisonment yesterday for attempted
criminal assault upon white wom-
an is the sniper who terrorized
Northeast Washington and nearpv
Maryland last fall will be made by
States Attorney Ben G.. Wilkinson,
jr., during the November term of
the Montgomery County Circuit
Court.
The man is Jesse Paul Parker of
Washington and the main witness
is young colored woman who is
expected to testify that during an
attack upon her in Chevy Chas.
Md, on the night of December %
Parker identified himself as the mad
gunman responsible for several slay-
ings
None of the victims of the sniper
have been able to identify Parker
as connected with the case, but Mr.
Wilkinson said efforts are being
made to locate an automatic pistol
with which he is said to have
threatened one of his victims. To
date, efforts to locate the weapon
have proved fruitless.
Montgomery police also are in
vestigating any possible connection
OF Parker and series of attacks
on white and colored women in the
Bethesda and Chevy Chase area dur
ing the past 18 months. A young
colored man was tried more than a
year ago after being partially iden-
titled by victim of an attack, but
was found not guilty.
A second trial in the alleged
Parker attack on the colored wom-
an was ordered at Mr.. Wilkinson S
request yesterday afternoon in the
trial in which Parker, who has NJ
known address in the Capital, was
convicted of attempted criminal as .
sault upon the white woman, a 35-
year-old Chevy Chase resident.
Objections Halt Testimony.
The colored woman previously told
county police Parker threatened her
with a pistol and told her he was
the sniper. Objections by Defense
Attorney Thomas Dawson, however,
cut short her testimony yesterday
and resulted in the request for the
second trial.
1t was testified by the white woin-
an that Parker grabbed her while
she was walking near the Chevy
Chase Elementary School on Decen-
ber %, dragged her to the sch Dol
grounds and attempted to assault
her.
The colored woman said Parker
approached her on Rosemary street,
where the elementary school is To-
Gated, Is minutes after the first at
tack
Objections to her testimony were
entered by Mr.. Dawson after the
woman declared Parker asked her
directions to a Chevy Chase address
and walked home with her.
Trial Slated for November.
Mr.. Wilkinson today said the sec
ond trial probably will be set for
the November court term because
the present jury panel heard yes
terdays testimony and a new panel
would be necessary for the subse-
quent trial.

Hike Through Three Rooms
Ends PoIicemon's Siege Abed
W. J. Coffmon, Victim
Of Infection, Received
so Trunsfusions

William J. Coffman walked unas-
sisted through thre rooms and back
again to his bed yesterday.
No much of tour as hikes go, of
course, but to the 25-year-old rookie
police private it meant a lot. 1t
meant that four months of inactiv-
ity confined to a hospital bed had
come to an end.
Stricken with an infection Janu-
airy %, only three weeks after he had
been married, Mr. Coffman had to
be given one and sometimes two
blood transfusions a day for several
weeks in his desperate fight for life
at George Washington University
Hospital.
Altogether he received nearly so
tranSfusions, most of which were
supplied by fellow officers. Finally
his struggle appeared to have been
successful and Sunday he was al
lowed to return to his home at 918
East Capitol street. four months to
the day from the time he had en-
tered the hospital.

volved in some of the incidents to
which she testified.
Il should like to have all the girls
conduct records brought in," DR..
Smith declared. Mr.. Gasch said
this would be done, but added he
had been informed by officials at the
school that some of the records were
missing. Asked by DR.. Smith if he
was implying she had taken the rec
ords, Mr.. Gasch replied: There is
no such charge"
With both witnesses DR.. Smith
sought to establish that many Incl
dents which allegedly occurred while
she was superintendent had been
going on before she came. She
asked both witnesses If they knew
of a teacher dragged across the liv-
ing room of cottage by her iair,
before she took over the superin-
tendency. Mrs. Walker said she had
not, but Mrs. Gilbert said he had
heard of it. DR.. Smith also took
exception to testimony by Mrs.
Walker that 'the bad girls received
more privileges than the 0.od girls"
