Themselves, He Says
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June 17.-Mayor
La Guardia, national director of
civilian defense, announced last
night he would create nine regional
Offices in a far-reaching plan to
train civilian defense workers.
What we are required to do"
the Mayor said in a broadcast out
lining the job ahead, 'is to first
educate the people of our country
to protect themselves in the event
of a foreign attack; to train the
necessary number of civilian air
wardens and auxiliary forces to meet
an emergency; should it come"
The regional civil defense Offices
will be located near the headquarters
of the nine War Department corps
areas, New York, Boston, Baltimore,
Atlanta. Columbus, Chicago, Omaha,
San Antonio and San Francisco.
Regional directors, Mayor La
Guardia said, will be in touch with
defense agencies set up by State and
municipal governments, which con-
stitute links in the chain of civilian
measures for defense"

Boy on Trial Weeps
As Lawyer Recounts
His Fathers Suicide
Lenieney Asked Of Court
After He and Two Others
File Guilty Pleas

Tears streamed down the face of
21-year-old Albert v. Hamm, jr., ad-
mitted robber of three Arlington
County (Va) establishments, as De-
fense Attorney Thomas w. Phillips
recounted today the circumstances
leading to the boys arrest and the
subsequent suicide of his father.
Hamm is being given a hearing
in the County Circuit Court along
with two other youths-Royal Jack
son Lewis. 29, and Howard Acton, jr.,
10. The trio was indicted on April
21 on charges of holding up the
Washington Golf and Country Club,
the Public Small Loan Co, Rosslyn,
and D. G. S. grocery last January
Former State Senator Frank l..
Ball, attorney for Acton, told the
court he was convinced the youth
had completely changed his views
and was deserving of leniency.
Lewis changed his plea from not
guilty to guilty earlier today. The
others previously had pleaded guilty.
All three are Washingtonians.
Ihe Arlington grand jury yeSteT-
day returned indictments charging
Joseph Moses and Alice Hampton
with breaking and entering and
with larceny from a popcorn stand
at the old Washington Airport. The
jury also returned true bills against
Otha Wilson, charged with assault
with intent to kill, and against Har-
vey Horne, also charged with assault
with intent to kill.
Circuit Court Judge Walter Nc
Carthy sentenced Horne to serve 30
days, which he has already served,
and released him in the custody of
his father. Trial of the others in
dicted was set for July /.
The grand jury ignored charges
against Spencer Proctor and Wallace
Duley.

SUMMARY OF
LEGISLATIVE ACTIVITY

Continued from Page One)
SCISSORS for efficient enforce
ment.
Summed up, his financial rec
concentrations are aimed at
meeting necessary state expenses
as far as possible, with no claim
that the states budget will be
balanced, and putting local fl
nanees strictly upste pcsg taxing
bodies after providing ahdkA eff
cient means for their assessment
and collection.
A new tax of one percent on
stock inventories over $1,000 has
been proposed in the hodse and
apparently has the support of
both independent merchants and
chain store officials. This will
replace the gross receipts tax;
however, as practically all stores
turn their stocks over several
times a year, food stores and
some others having more fire.
quent turnover, the tax will in
the course of a year be consider
ably less than one-half of one
percent levied on sales under the
gross receipts tax.
A new graduated tax on chain
stores based on the, number in
the chain in the United States
rather than in Florida, is also
proposed. This tax ranges from
$40 on one store to $500 on each
store in chains having more than
100 units.
NSekerals weeks ago this sum-
mary pointed out that there were
definite Indications that the leg
IS in a spending mood.
Two events, last week certainly
support that assertion. First,
the senate passed its appropria-
ton measure in the sum of SILL
708, 816, an increase of 81, $40, 463
in state expenses, and the house
appropriation bill will probably
be equally as liberal.
Second, both the house and
the senate passed the bill Great
ing the Florida State Improve
ment Commission with unlimit-
ed power to spend unlimited
sums on "self-liquidating prof.
ects for public use and benefit"
1t awaits only the approval of
the governor to become a law,
and as it had the approval of
both the governor and the chair
man of the State Road Depart
ment, there is no good reason to
suppose the governor will with
hold his approval.
Advocates of this commission
have tried to reassure some who
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1941-05-23

are viewing with alarm the
broad scope of authority granted
to the 5-man commission by say
ing that the next legislature can
repeal the act if it proves unsat-
isfactory. But as the first pro-
posal which will probably be act
ed upon by this commission is
the spending of some So million
dollars for a four-lane highway
down the east coast and a branch
to Tampa, with several other
millions also in immediate pros
pect on projects deemed neces-
sary, repeating the act after
certificates of Indebtedness of so
to so million dollars have been
issued will be like trying to un-

other sales tax bill Was killed. ;.
Sales tax bills seem to have more
lives than cats. Two more
gambling licensing acts were
killed; a tabulation of the num-
Der of similar bills introduced
would be interesting. 1t now
looks as though the new con-
gresham win be elected at
large. A ten million dollar PEN
sion bill has been brought to the
floor of the house, bill granting
SIS per month pensions to farm
ers who have worked 40 years
has been introduced. And the
legislature has made its usual
gesture toward the Townsendites
by recommending to Congress
the enactment of the Townsend
Bill.
