Nazi Conception Of Contraband.
Germany lists as unconditional

Nazi conception can be destroyed or
confiscated without formality-
everything recognized by interna-
tional law, such as munitions, chem
icals, guns, fuel, war vessels, air.
planes and airplsne parts and in
Vulnerable other items intended for
use in battle.
In addition the Nal Reich lists
many goods as conditional contra
band. These include foodstuffs, live
animals, feed, clothing and raw ma
terials used for their manufacture.
These goods, Germany maintains,
were made contraband by Great
Britain in violation of interna tional
law.

District Tax Program
Draws Opposition
OF Board Of Trade
'HurriedIy Conceived
Plan Held at Variance
With Pond Report

Opposition to the District tax pro-
gram agreed on yesterday by men,
bers of Congress and District off,
Gals was voiced today in a state
ment by Fred A. Smith, president Of
the Washington Board of Trade, who
pointed out that the proposed pro-
gram was at variance with the Pond
report and had been ''hurriedly
conceived" without giving taxpayers
the opportunity to express their
wishes.
Mr. Smith said:
THE Congress of the United
States, in an act approved May 16.
1898, recognized the need for study
to frame recommendation for such
changes as might be necessary to
provide an adequate and equitable
tax system for the District of Co.
lumbia. Pursuant to the terms OF
the act, survey and study of the
tax structure of this District was
made under the direction of the
Joint Committee on Internal Reve-
nue. Taxation.
Pond Report Still Applicable.
This report, since known as the
Pond report, House Document No.
108, Seventy-Sixth Congress, first
session, made certain recommended
tions and stated that they were of
necessity mutually dependent upon
each other Nevertheless, the Con-
gress saw fit to enact only q portion
of the program which was recon-
mended, despite the fact that the
Advisory Committee, which was ap-
pointed by the Commissioners and
which was made up of representa-
tives of the principal citizens groups
in the city, favored the enactment
of the complete program.
THE Washington Board Of Trade
has followed fiscal affairs in the
District of Columbia closely for a
period Of more than half a century.
1t joined with other responsible,
recognized civic groups In support
ing the recommendations of the
Pond report. We believe that at
this time the conclusions reached
in that report are just as surely
applicable as they were some two
years ago, when the report was sub
mitted, since they were drawn with
the basic idea of permanency and
are sufficiently elastic to meet the
needs which are now stated to exist.
Opposes Program.
1--WE cannot believe that a pro-
gram for additional taxation, hur-
riedly conceived and agreed upon
in 45-minute conference, without
affording local taxpayers an oppor-
tunity to express their wishes, and
Numerically opposed to the rec
ommendation of the Pond report,
can provide as satisfactory a solu-
ton of the tax question as that
which resulted from a six-month
study by the Congress designated
tax experts.
THE Washington Board of Trade
is, therefore, by virtue of repeated
official actions, opposed to enact
ment of the provisions agreed upon
by the members of Congress and
District officials who met yester-
day."

from the time the lifeboat returned
to her vessel.
Upon the return three other life
boats were lowered, one containing
IL seamen; another with IL seamen;
another with 10 seamen and one
passenger, and fourth contained
three married couples, a child and
five seamen.
Torpedo Fired Amidships.
after abandonment of the ship
the submarine fired torpedo
amidships, then some 30-odd shells
until the Robin Moor sank stern
most in about % minutes. Her po-
sition at this time was Latitude $40
north, longitude 25.40 west and the
hour was sos Greenwich time.
Afterwards floating wreckage was
destroyed by gunflre.
AFTER the sinking of the Robin
Moor the submarine circled by the
lifeboat carrying the survivors in
terviewed and its commander re-
marked, I have given some food to
your captain and then left the
scene Of the sinking, remaining on
the surface until out of sight. There
Is no doubt in the minds of the
survivors that the commander and
submarine were German although
the latter had no visible markings
other than the name Lorricke or
Lorickke and q figure described as
a laughing COW both painted on the
coming tower. The commander
spoke to the men in poor English.
THE Ifeboats remained together
at the scene of the sinking for about
"a hours because the commander
Of the submarine had said that he
would wireless their position to ex-
pedite their rescue. Finding that
this was useless the captain in
structed all boats to proceed to
st. Pauls Rock or the Brazilian
coast. They all remained together
until May 26, when the survivors
interviewed were given permission
to proceed on their own, which they
did in the direction of the Brazilian
coast. Survivors were picked up by
the O1orio at latitude O.46 north,
longitude 37.37 west.

Continued From First Page.)

Georgetown and the other in South
east Washington.
For urgently needed additions and
improvements in the water distri-
button system the bill allocates a
total of $756,000. And for use OF
the highway department primarily
to eliminate existing traffic bottle
necks, it carries $4,605, 900.
Funds to continue two projects
started in previous years are in
cluded in the bill. One would pro-
vide for completion of the National
Guard Armory and the other to con-
tinue construction of the new Gen.
trail Library to be erected on Penn
sylvania avenue between Fourth and
Sixth streets NV. Also for the
library there is an item to purchase
a site for proposed branch in
Anacostia.,
The House Appropriations Com
mittee, however, turned down one
OF the most important projects ap-
proved by the Budget Bureau for
the highway department-an item
Of 100000 for preparation Of plans
and purchase of land, for ap-
proaches for proposed bridge across
the Anacostia River running from
the vicinity of South Capitol and
P streets to the Naval Air Station.
In its report to the House, the COM
mittee said it was not opposed to
the project but believed it should
be deferred until a defense highway
plan has had an opportunity to de-
velop.
Largely at the insistence of Rep
resentative Stefan of Nebraska,
ranking minority member on the
Appropriations Subcommittee which
wrote the bill. legislative provision
was tackled to 1t which will require
all nonresident children attending
the public schools to pay tuition.
The Washington Board Of Trade
had supported Mr.. Stefan in this
move-a move that If approved by
Congress will save local taxpayers
about $258,000 a year.
Welfare Item Deleted.
The 100000 reduction made by
the Appropriations Committee in
the Budget Bureau approved esti-
mates was brought about chiefly
by cuts In items for departments
that have no direct relation with
the municipal services needed in
the newly developed sections.
For instance, an item was removed
that would have permitted a start
on a proposed welfare center in
either Maryland or Virginia where
modern accommodations would be
provided for inmates of four institu-
tions-the Home for the Aged and
1nf1rm, the National Training School
for Girls, the Industrial Home
School and the Industrial Home
School for Colored Children. The
Appropriations Committee expressed
sympathy for this proposed project,
but took the position it could be de-
ferred until conditions in the con-
struction field have subsidized"
Gallinger Hospital is the most
serious victim of the slashes made
In the budget estimates. The COM
mittee denied budget recon-
mendations for an increase of So ad-
ditional employees, 43 of whom would
be nurses. In doing so, it said an
investigation had been made of the
situation at the hospital-an in

The State Departments report
on the Robin Moor incident came
from Walter j. Linthicum, United
States consul at Pernambuco, Brazil,
who spent almost five hours getting
the accounts of the II known survi-
vors after they reached the South
American port aboard the rescue
ship Ozorio.
The terse, drama-packed recital
told how the plainly marked Amer
lean ship was stopped by the sub
marine in the South Atlantic on May
81, her identity confirmed and her
passengers given 80 minutes to aban-
don ship before she was torpedoed
and shelled.
