Treasury Seeks Way to Insure
Auto Stamp Tax Enforcement

Indications that large numbers of
automobile owners were staying
away from the IS Federal use tax
stamp window sent top Treasury
officials into a huddle today over
possible methods of enforcing the
levy.
The first auto stickers expired
Tuesday night, but scattered reports
indicate exceptionally poor" sales
of the new stamps covering the fiscal
year which started Wednesday.
In the District only 169,084 use
stamps have been sold, according to
today's report, although officials
earlier had estimated there might
be a call for approximately 245,000.
Gasoline and tire rationing were
blamed by many for the decrease
from the 192,841 of the February
issue sold. At that time, on a pro-
rated, five-month basis, the first
sticker cost S2.09
Yesterdays use stamp sales here
were 6,100.
Technically, persons who do not
show the stamps on their wind
shields are liable to a fine Of SIS OF
a jail term OF 80 days. Actually, the
Treasury has no adequate funds to
police the millions of cars. A few
arrests were made because of failure
to exhibit the first sticker, but the
Treasury has no reports of any one
going to Jail for the offense.
A stab at rigid enforcement In
the East was made recently when
the Treasury got the ONCE OF Price
Administration to require motorists
to report the serial numbers of their
tax stamps before obtaining gaso-
line ration books.
In the II States where gas ration
ing is in effect, filling station at
tendants will be required to check

tion book with that on the stamp

OF Treason for AIDING

May Face Death Penalty.
To Be Sentenced Soon
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, July 3.-German- born
Max Stephan sat in prison cell to-
day convicted of the gravest wartime
crime in the land-treason-while
Federal Judge Arthur J. Tuttle
pondered the punishment, which
could be execution.
Judge Tuttle had promised SEN
tence very shortly" after a jury
yesterday finished one hour and %
minutes of delberation, with the
declaration, 1--WE md the defendant
guilty as charged" to a courtroom
packed and silent.
Stephan, a naturalized citizen who
was accused of II overt acts of as
sistance to a fleeing German war
prisoner. met the verdict with the
same cold expression which he had
adopted on his first entrance to the
courtroom three days previously.
Wife at His Side.
At Stephens side was his wife, a
constant companion during the trial.
She gripped his elbow. Earlier. when
District Attorney John c. Lehr had
called her husband black traitor
with black heart" she had wept.
The possible penalties confronting
the 49-year- r-old cafe operator range
from five years imprisonment, or
$4,000 fine, or both, to death on the
gallows.
Stephan's attorney said there
would be no appeal unless the death
sentence was imposed.
The jury took two ballots. with one
woman voting for acquittal on the
first. Six women and six men COM
prised the jury.
1t was Stephan's assistance on
April 18 and 10 to Oberleutnant
Hans Peter Krug, an escaped pris-
oner from the Bowmanville tOn-
tariO prison camp, that provided
grounds for his indictment and con-
viction.
Krug himself had been brought
to court by the Government. and
he freely testified that Stephan had
given him money. food, clothing
entertainment and finally a bus
ticket to Chicago.
Aid Not Disputed.
This was conceded by Defense
Counsel Verne c. Amberson-"We
don't dispute that the defendant
gave these things to Peter Krug,
he said-but he insisted that they
constituted aid to an individual
only, and not to "the enemy"
Judge Tuttle instructed the jury
"If you find that Max Stephan
gave aid to Peter Krug as an in
dividual, the defendant Is not
guilty; if that aid was given to an
enemy government, through Krug
he is guilty as charged"
Krug, member of the German Ali
Force, had testified that he had
come to Detroit, then proceeded tc
Chicago and New York and finally
was captured by FBI agents in Sar
Antonio, Tex, while trying to re.
turn to fight again for Hitler.
Judge Tuttle, promising sentence
after receiving report on Stephan
from probation officers, observed:
