Income Tax Returns
Total $7,012,391 in
Maryland 10 Date
Stote Controller
Estimates Figure Will
Reoch $4,000, 900
BY the Associated Press.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 26.-J.
Millard Tawes, State controller, said
yesterday Maryland income tax re-
turns tabulated to date had yielded
STOP, ,391, or approximately 81 per
cent of the 100000 estimates under
the budget of Gov. O'Conor.
II think the total yield will be
$4,000, ,000," Mr.. Tawes declared. If
it goes over this amount, the addi-
tional money will be so small that it
will be negligible" :.
Some of the returns received at
Annapolis have not been included
in the $7,0l2,391 total because they
could not pass preliminary audit.
Mr.. Tawes said more than 500
returns had been filed, with the
sender failing to include payment
and that about 200 others made
partial payment which could not be
tabulated,
In addition, approximately $1,000
in checks has been received, but
the individual payments did not cor
respond with the indicated tax due
When the remaining individual re-
ports are audited, the total will
approximate $7,5O0,000, Mr.. Tawes
estimated. The remaining $500, 900
necessary to reach the Governor S
budget estimate is expected to come
from corporations, which have more
time to file.

King Pledges
Fight 10 Kill
Racing Bill
Overton Fuvors
No Recommendation
By Subcommittee

Chairman King of the Senate Dis
trict Committee announced today
he will oppose the pending bill to
legalize horse racing in Washington,
which has been reintroduced at this
session following failure OF similar
measures to get through Congress
In recent years.
At the same time, Senator Over
ton, Democrat, of Louisiana, men,
ber Of the subcommittee that con-
Quoted hearings on the measure,
made known that he thinks the
subcommittee should report the bill
back to the full committee without
recommendation.
Has Two Amendments.
Senator Overton has two amend
ments to propose if the bill is acted
on. One would require any tracks
licensed under the bill to be policed
at the expense of the licensees.
The other would require the taxes
collected by the District to be set
aside for capital improvements.
The District Committee is sched-
ued to meet at 1890 tomorrow
morning, primarily to consider the
House-approved bill to regulate the
minimum resale price of trade
marked goods. 1t is probable this
subject will take up most of the
session, but Chairman King said If
the race track bill is brought up he
will fight it.
Chairman King will have the sup
port Of the ranking minority mem
Der, Senator Capper of Kansas, who
also reiterated today his past OPP
position to legalizing racing in the
National Capital.
people Don't Want It."
Il am convinced the people here
do not want that at ALL" said Sena-
tor Capper.
Senator Austin, Republican, of
Vermont also said he probably would
vote against the bill.
The District Commissioners have
reported adversely on the bill and
told the subcommittee at the recent
hearings that they did so because
they believed local public sentiment
is against it. The bill was intro.
duced by Senator Reynolds, Demo-
crat, OF North Carolina, who con-
Quoted the hearings.

larry driven off by a shotgun blast
and another young bandit suspect
captured by citizens in a store
robbed recently.
Randolph Jennings, jr, "a, of 1909
Olive street NE, reported to police

the porch of his home last night.
He fired at them as they fled. using
both barrels of shotgun. He heard

Police Question Youth.
Miss Brantley ran to the nearby
Graham home. William Graham,
the clerks husband, rushed to the
store and held the youth for police.
He is being questioned in connection
with some other recent robberies.
More successful was the bandit
who entered a liquor store at 1925
Ninth street NV. last night. He
obtained about $3.50 from Samuel
Newman of 1923 Seventeenth place
NE, proprietor of the store.
The robber, Mr.. Newman told po-
lice, held a small automatic in the
palm of his hand and mumbled in
coherently.
Hands Over Money.
Il got the idea, though" said Mr..
Newman, "and told him to take the
money"
The robber obtained $288 which
was in an envelope waiting to be
sent to the bank, Mr.. Newman said,
in addition to loose money in the
cash drawer.
Other robbery victims included
Samuel McLurkin, 1857 Irving street
NV. delivery boy for a liquor store
in the 5000 block of Mount Pleasant
street NV, robbed of $13 by a COL
ored man, and Nellie Pierce, colored,

has a problem of social behavior to
post to Emily Post.
What should a person in the re-

a guest greets him with a court

The question is not hypothetical,
for it happened to Gov. Hoey last
night at the North Carolina State

100 Calls From Trailer.
Over 100 calls were made from
the telephone trailer, some of them
to distant points. Mrs. Mai Dye,
operator, said she couldn't i'm
agine" what was said.
About 60 children were lost and
regained after an average interval
of half an hour. Longest loss was
that of a 7-year-old boy, from $50
am. to 4 pm. Authorities said
he was bright and we'll informed,
but it slipped his mind that his
mother had gotten new name by
remarriage He was at length sent
home in a taxi.

freezing temperatures than. did
adults. At pm, when aaultnNere
admitted without children, only a
trickle arrived and police finally
closed the affair at 4:3O o'clock, hall
an hour ahead of scheduled time.
Even before 3 o'clock, the period
when aduDs must be accompanied
by children, the surplus of the latter
was made evident by the price for
which youngsters outside sold
themselves to grownups who wanted
escort in. The market dropped to
5 cents per head, price unheard of

One Woman Keeps Warm.
Warmest adult present was Mrs.
Gregory Malousis. who was on her

there for hours while her children
scamper. Police say it's unauthor-
lied, but all right.
On his first trip came Rabbi B
Klein, a white-bearded native of
Budapest, Hungary. He said he had
come because:
i've seen how chickens lay eggs
but never how people throw them
Sergt. Paul Proctor of the White
House Police elected from the
grounds another bearded visitor, who
attempted to make religious ad-
dress in the midst of festivities.
