Tax Rate Is Reduced
To 30c by Section 4
Of Chevy Chase
Retention Of Old Rute
Rejected os Qualified
Voters Hold Session

Property owners of section four,
Chevy Chase. Md, last night voted
to reduce their special tax rate to 80
cents per 500 assessed valuation of
real property, with the result that
the $4,000 budget for the area will
be curtailed by about s2,400 during
the coming fiscal year.
More than 100 voters met in the
school on Rosemary street to reject
a recommendation of the Citizens
Committee that the present special
tax rate Of IS cents be retained.
Chairman william r. De Lashmutt
OF the committee explained that re-
tention of the existing IS cents levy
was believed necessary by the gov
erning body.
George A. Finch first moved that
the present rate of IS cents be re-
tanned. Clarence E. Dawson intro
duced an amendment to substitute
Is cents for the rate, and John
B. Ecker then amended the amend
ment to, provide for a 30-cent rate.
A question Of the legality of last
nights action was raised by John
1mirie, who pointed out that the
Montgomery County Board Of Com
missioners had already assessed
property owners in section 4 at the
old rate, in accordance with an act
of the State Legislature passed at
the 1899 session. The new law ad-
vanced the assessment date from
May until April /.

record for the last 80 years during
which he built nearly a dozen IN
dustrial plants, employed hundreds
of thousands Of workers and met
pay rolls aggregating more than
500 900 900. At each of these rail-
lies groups of his former employees
acted as escorts of honor when he
took the platform.
Round Of Rallies Held.
The heavy artillery of the Bruce
forces swung into action in this
round Of rallies. Besides the candi-
date the campaigners included Gov
OConor, William Curran, Demo-
cratic leader in Baltimore; Repre-
sentative D'Alesandro and Charles
E. Moylan, who is chief of the speak
ers' bureau.
Mr.. Bruce reviewed his life for
the past 80 years in Baltimore where,
he said, he started from scratch
and even had to borrow money to
take him to his first job. He said
that in all his industrial experience
he had never had a strike, that he
had been the first employer in Bal
timore to establish an eight hour
day, that under his management SAL
aries had been increased three fold
that his was one of the first COM
panies to insure its employees and
that he was one of the first to start
a pension system for his workers.
He said this is the first time he has
sought public ONCE and now he
doesn't want to win unless the people
feel he is the best man for the job.
The Republican camps of forme,
Gov. Nice and former Baltimore
Mayor William F Broening which
have been quiet. in comparison with
the Democratic organizations

For Improvement
OF Park Grass
Dr.. Monteith Will
Direct Experiments
In Numerous Coses

Extensive tests to learn how best
to improve Washington park grass
will be started this month, the once
OF National Capital Parks said today.
The tests are to be conducted by
DR.. John Monteith, jr., director OF
the green's section Of the United
States Golf Association, who has
been appointed collaboration at large
for the National Park Service. =
The tests will include those of
fertilizer, methods Of renovating
established turf, chemical weed con-
troll, adaptability of grass for special
purposes, soil texture improvement,
the effects of moving at different
heights and the influence OF differ
ent rates Of frequency of watering
on the vigor of grass in competition
with weeds. y
Numerous Areas Chosen.
Numerous areas in the parks have
been chosen for the tests. Fertilizer
and moving tests will be conducted
IN the area bordering the Arlington
National Cemetery approach and in
West Potomac Park adjacent to
Constitution avenue. Experiments
with different types of grass, differ
ent rates seeding and different times
OF sowing to establish seeding grass
In old turf and the value of low

tests will be made of the use of
chemicals for improvement of turf
by a combination of weed removal
and fertilizing without reseeding
Adaptability TO Conditions.
Small quantities of special grasses,
produced by Agriculture Depart

Germans Intensity
Aerial Warfare in
Northern Norway
Planes Attack Train
With Swedish Volunteers
And AmbuIunces
BY ]. NORMAN LODGE,


Associated Press Foreign Correspondent.
FORMOFOSS, Norway (near
Namsos), May 1.-German bomb
ing planes have ranged this north
ern war front from the coast to
the Swedish frontier during the last
"a hours, strafing allied commune
cation lines with an intensity that
has led observers to wonder whether
a new Nazi land offensive is in the
making.
An almost complete lack of ac-
tivity by German infantry patrols
has accompanied these aerial op-
erations, intensifying rather than
relieving the alert expectancy of
allied outposts.
Two Nazi patrols which ventured
out on the Norwegian-held sector Of
the front were captured yesterday,
but there was little movement in
front Of the British and French
lines.
Planes Attack Ambulances.
Among the objects of the latest
information received here, were a
truck train filled with Swedish VOL
unteers and a Red Cross ambulance
train being brought into Norway by
British Quakers.
DR.. Richard Early, commander Of
the Red Cross unit. said the Ger
mans twice swooped down on the
ambulances as they were nearing
Formofoss. One of the ambulances
was raked with machine-gun fire, he
said, but there were no casualties.
German planes sighted the truck
column of Swedish volunteers on
the narrow winding road that leads
from Gaddede, Swedish frontier
| town, and swept it with their ma
chine-guns, but again they failed to
do any serious damage.
| A 7-truck supply convoy, bringing
food from Sweden to residents Of
this community of Snasa Lake, also
was attacked.
Airmen Visit Namsos.
Namsos, British debarkation point
which has been raided repeatedly
from the air, was visited again yes
terday by German planes, but they
were forced by newly installed anti
aircraft guns to fly at high altitude.
From Namsos the Germans swung
over Grong, 80 miles to the east,
dropping number of bombs and
straflng the area with machine-guns
without causing extensive damage.
The Nazis also few over Formofoss,
but did not attempt to attack
One of their planes. "hedghopping"

budget director, last night at the
Willard Hotel presented to the
chamber a plan for balancing the
budget.
The Federal budget can be
balanced" Gen. Dawes said. IF the
next President is a fighter and will,
without qualification, pledge himself
in his conscience and before his
people-and before Congress - to
fight for balanced budget, he
should not fail But he must be
made of stern stuff"
Most important he continued sis
a return to the firmly established
system of Government coordination
and executive control that was
established in 1921 and operated
successfully until abolished in 1933."
Budget Director Holds Key.
First. he said. the budget director
would create, by executive order, an
organiza tion to gather impartial in
formation for use of the President
in making decision of business policy.
Second, the President would make
1t a condition in appointing any man
to his cabinet" that he pledge sup
port to a plan to reduce govern
mental expenditures and balance
the budget. A similar pledge would
be made by departmental heads.
Third, the President would call
together in the first month of his
term the budget director, cabinet
members and heads of independent
government establishments, who
rank "as would operating vice presi-
dents in private business" to discuss
their needs and ferret out economies.
The fourth step, only to be taken
in the first year of his administra-
ton. Is to begin reduction of Gov
ernment expenditures Immediately.
With Government expenses approx
imately $4,000, 100000 annually, he
must attack them Immediately. the
speaker said. It must be partially
secured 'in the first six months,
during which the President will be
least equipped for the task" he
emphasized.
r. H. Geist, chief of the State
Department division of CONNER
cial affairs, told another group
last night that the system Of ex-
change in foreign trade-of which
Germany has been the chief ex-
ponent-has in practice become a
"delusion and failure" .
Holds Troubles Multiplied.
THE system has not worked
smoothly from the day of its in
ception, and the difficulties which
were inaugurated with the first re-
strictions have multiplied In propor-
ton to its development" he said.
If it had worked, he pointed out,
it would have led to the content
ment of nations which developed
that type of trade.
I'VE stand in the midst of events
which may have very serious and
prolonged effect upon our exports
and imports" Mr.. Geist said. Zone
thing is certain, and that Is If the
course of events should persuade
nations to collaborate on a re-
establishment of international good
will, the principles adopted and
pursued by American business and
by our Government in foreign trade
must find general acceptance for the
march along the road Of progress"

The Maryland Campaign
Radcliffe Challenges
Bruce to Announce
NotionoI Viewpoints
BY JACK ALLEN.

A challenge to Howard Bruce to
set forth his position on national
matters for the voters of Maryland
to see today rang through one OF the
strongholds In his campaign for the
Democratic senatorial nominat ton.
Invading Prince Georges County,
where the powerful Democratic or
ganization is backing his rival, Sena-
tor Radcliffe, and his colleague, Sem
ator Tydings. defied Mr.. Bruce to
tell the people where he stands "on
these matters"
Nearly 1000 county residents heard
the Senator's last night as from two
platforms they fiayed Mr.. Bruce for
failure" to show where he and Mr..
Radcliffe differ on the problems
confronting the country"
One rally was staged in the court
house at Upper Marlboro. home town
OF Representative Sasscer, one of the
county organizations leaders, while
the other was in Mount Rainier, not
far from where T. Howard Duckett,
another head of that faction, resides.
Political Trickery Charged.
On the stand with them was Rob-
ert Mccullough. county manager
Of the Radcliffe campaign, who
branded as "a cheap piece of po-
litical trickery" reports that Sena-
tor Radcliffe is opposing the re-
nomination Of Representative Sass
Ger.
"An attempt is being made to turn
the Senator's followers in Prince
Georges against him by spread ding
rumors that he. does not want to see
Representative Sasscer reelected" !"
Mr.. Mccullough said: THAT is not
SO. Senator Radcliffe has no differ
ences with Representative Sasscer
Every sample ballot that will 70 out
from Radcliffe campaign headuuar-
ters will be marked for Representa-
tive Sasscer as well as Senator Rad
cliffe."
Mr.. Mccullough commented on
Gov. OConor's support of Mr.
Bruce, the Governors chief finan-
cial backer and adviser in the 1898
fight, and said. THE Governor is
supporting Mr.. Bruce because he is
obligated to him and he's too fine
a gentleman to shirk an obligation. ;
In opening his speeches Senator
Radcliffe confirmed Mr.. McCul-
lough's remarks with regard to the
assertion that he is on the friend
lest OF terms with Mr.. Sasscer
and added:
Representative Sasscer never has
found any fault with my record in
Congress. I never have found any
fault with his. Mr.. Sasscer stands
on his record-as he has a perfec,
right to do-and so do I, as I have
a right to do. I am entitled tc
denomination on my record. Nc
other consideration is involved"
