D. {. Bill
Passed by Senate and
Sent 10 Conference
Conferees May Meet
Tomorrow on increases
TotuIing S2,246, 900
Ry ]. A. OIEARY.

The Senate quickly passed s54.-
$4,000 District appropriation bill
today and sent it to conference
with the House on increases
amounting to s2246,00O.
In brief explanation, Chairman
Overton of the District Appropria-
ton Subcommittee pointed out this
is the largest District appropriation
bill in history. Nevertheless, he
said the bill as increased by the
Senate still leaves the city with a
$500 900 reserve for deficiencies that
will arise during the year.
The ConfereeS probably will meet
tomorrow in an effort TO put the
finishing touches on the measure
IN time for the beginning of the
new fiscal year Tuesday.
In the absence of any dispute this
year over the s6,O00,0O0 annual Fed
eral payment, prompt agreement in
conference is expected.
The bill was called up by Senator
Overton and passed as soon as the
clerk finished reading the amend
ments.
Chief Increases.
Chief among the changes going
to conference for final settlement
are:
For the school system, s7S4,250
most Of which is to make more
money available for buildings
already in the House bill, and for a
new grade school in Bradbury
Heights.
For the Police Department 90 more
men to combat major crimes, in
cluding new squad of four ace
detectives, to be paid $500 a year
each. The House allowed only 81
additional men.
The Senate also granted increases
for two additional combination
scout-car ambulances, and to COM
plete the installation of two-way
radio in police cars.
Under the heading of health and
welfare, the more important in
creases are: To start the Northwest
Health Center 100000; to start a
home for internes and physicians at
Gallinger Hospital, 100000; to pre-
pare plans for new building for
the Home for Aged and Infrm,
$4,000; for more nurses and at
tendants at Gallinger, s75,3OO.
Food Stamp Plan Restored.
The Senate restored the food
stamp plan for needy families,
which went out on point of order
in the House, and also added $780,
900 to the $950,0OO direct relief
fund, This and smaller increases
for old-age assistance and the home
care of dependent children are in
tended to help some of the families
of men expected to be dropped from

Mother Sentenced to so DAYS
For Beating and Burning Child

Mrs. Evelyn M. Stewart, IS, was
sentenced by Justice T. Alan Colds
borough today to serve so days in
Jail for beating and burning her
7-year-old son, Jimmy.
Justice Goldsborough overruled a
motion by Defense Counsel Paul j.
Sedgwick for a new trial and denied
q plea for probation.
He expressed very great doubt"
as to whether the child was burned
deliberately by his mother in hot
bath on April II at their home, 2l33
First street NV. The judge thought
the burning may have been care
lessness.' He said there was no
way of knowing whether the jury
which brought in a verdict of guilty
yesterday found the mother had
burned the child or not.
But" Justies Geidsborough said.
Evening star., 1941-06-27

there is no doubt in my mind
about his having been beaten out
rageously, not the slightest doubt in
the world. Therefore, the court
doesn't know of any reason why the
defendant should not suffer some
penalty for what she did"
Mrs. Stewart stood to accept the
verdict without show of emotion.
She was taken away by a deputy
United States marshal. Her hus-
band, Irving Stewart, and her
brother, Walter James. were in the
court to hear the sentence passed.
Meanwhile, the proceeding in
which Kenneth A. Ford, first hus-
band of Mrs. Stewart and father of
Jimmy. is seeking custody of the
child, was set for hearing at 10 a.r11,
Tuesday in District Court before
Justice James Morris.
