Dearborn Adds
Impetus TO
Bridges Day

Tommy Bridges admirers ir
Dearborn are going "all out" for
their Tiger pitching hero, it was
reported today by Henry d. Schu-
bert, recreation department head
A staunch supporter of smilin'
Tom ever since the Tennessee
native has been a member of the
Tiger staff, Schubert added the
impetus that his crew of play
ground supervisors could give
yesterday when he announced
that Dearborn residents could
contribute toward the Tommy
Bridges Day fund through an
agency in his office.
To start the drive for Tommy
in Dearborn Billy Rogell, former
Detroit shortStop, appeared at the
Department of Recreation's base
ball school at Fordson High Field
and urged the youngsters TO turn
in their dimes 10 playground di-
Irectors.
HE DESERVES 1T
This day for Tommy Is some
thing he has deserved for a
long time" Rogell told the
crowd of admiring young ball
players. II played with him
for many years, and 1 know
that he is one man who richly
deserves such an honor. He's
game and real sport and
above all, a great little pitcher"
The name of the ex-Tiger and
his two sons, Bobby and Billy Jr..
will appear at the top of the
special Dearborn scroll which will
be presented Bridges.
Rogell stayed with the young
sters for two hours, giving advice
on how TO play ball in the major
league manner He liked it so
well that he will re-appear in the
final day of the school and coach
a team which will oppose another
managed by Bobby Veach, old
time Tiger star.
SEPT. : THE DAY
Through the cooperation of
Walter O. Briggs, Tiger owner,
September Z has been set aside
on the Detroit schedule as
Tommy Bridges Day"
This honor for the gallant little
hurler was first suggested by a
fan. Now all fans are planning
to join in the festivities in his
honor.

New Bill 10 Prevent
Dual Taxation
House Committee Seeks
Full Protection for
Non Residents
BY JAMES E. CHINN.

The Fiscal Affairs Subcommittee
of the House District Committee
today instructed municipal officials
to revise proposed amendments to
the local income tax law to pre-
clude any possibility of dual taxa
ton of non-residentS who work here.
The instructions were given Cor
poration Counsel Richmond B.
Keech and Glenn Simmon, one OF
his assistants. at the first of a
series of hearings on the proposed
new tax legislation.
Action was taken after Chair
man Hunter and Representative
SaSscer. Democrat, of Maryland both
had expressed fears that the bill
containing the proposed amend
ments might make it possible for
the District to impose an income
tax on non-residents who also pay
similar tax in the States
Chairman Hunter voiced the
opinion that it would be unfair
for the District to impose the tax
on non-residents from States which
do not have a reciprocal arrange
ment allowing credit for taxes paio
here.
Nearby States Allow Credit.
Non-residents from Maryland and
Virginia would not be affected
Representative Hunter explained
because these two States allow
credits for taxes paid in the Dis
trict
But" he added, I'VE can't &C
into the House with a tax bill ano
tell the members from those States
which have no reciprocal credit

counselor and charge daffaires, paid
tribute today to an English born
woman who died Saturday after
having been a secretary at the En-
bassy since 1917. She was Miss
Garcia Rollins
DR.. Thomson himself spoke briefly
in praise of the late secretary, as
did the Rev. Thomas Dade of St.
Patrick's Church, who conducted the
services.
The Rev. Father Dade told how
Miss Rollins came to him at the be-
ginning of the war in September,
1889, and asked whether she should
leave the Embassy.
He said she explained that her
mother and father (since deceased)
and sister were still living in London
