1900 on Voting Rolls
Cited as Disqualified
By Charter Committee

The Field Division Of the Mont
gomery County Charter Committee
mas cited to the Board Of Registra-
tion in Rockville the names Of 1900
persons on the voting rolls who are
disqualified from voting because OF
death, removal from the county OF
for other reasons, it was announced
today.
Republicans always cite Demo-
Gratis, the Democrats always cite Re-
publicans, but the Charter Commit
tee, being nonpartisan, cited MEM
bers of both parties" the committee's IS
said. "This Is part Of its
good government policy-to clear
the books for election day."
In checking the voters lists, the
committee found the names Of many
people who had not left the county
but had moved to other election dis
tricts. These persons may qualify
again If they will appear before the
Board of Registration at Bethesda
and Silver Spring on october is, the
announcement said.
I'm going through the lists, the
Charter Committee also discovered
a number of people who for years

Proper Ratio Urged
In Sharing DC. Costs

Establishment Of a proper ratio
between Federal share of the Dis
trict budget and the local taxpayers
share was asked by the Dupont
Citizens Association last night.
In report from the groups Tax
alton Committee, which is to be
forwarded to the Commissioners, 1t
also was suggested that the District
raise additional funds by an income
tax on the earnings in the District
of all those who reside outside the
city, and by an income tax on un-
incorporated business.
The association objected to the
sales tax on the ground it would
drive business in the District across
the line. Also unnecessary, the
group felt, are taxes on amusements
cigarettes, liquor and public utilities
bills.
Ray L. Huff, director of the Dis
trict Department of Public Welfare
who addressed the association, said
the humanitarian outlook was not
to be submerged in a too utilitarian
approach to the boards proposed
children's center, which would EN-
brace all of the city's child welfare
groups in single area.
Mr.. Huff objected to the use Of
such terms as delinquent" feeble
minded" and abandoned saying
''it must never be lost sight of that
we're dealing with child"

JoywoIker Humphreys Confused
After Ninth Day of Court Tilt

After Judge Casey found the de-
fendant guilty late yesterday Of the
disorderly conduct charge, MIR.
Humphreys thought he was through
with the various branches Of Mu-
nicipal Court for awhile. But he
was wrong.
Earlier in the afternoon, Hum
phrey's attorney, P. Bateman En-
mis-, was denied a motion for new
trial in the jaywalking case by
Judge Fennell who was then sit
ting in Civil Court. But, on look
ing over the court record, the judge
found he was technically wrong
in sentencing the defendant before
asking him If he had anything to
say before he was sentenced.
This brought Humphreys into
Judge Fennell's courtroom to hear
the Judge set aside the fine and be
asked, do you have anything to
say?"
"Only, your honor" the defend
ant whispered, "that I didn't in
tend to carry the jaywalking case
to court at all-only the disorderly
conduct charge"
TEN dollars" the judge said, re-
sentencing him.

Only One Try
Another in q series OF jogs for

At an uncontrolled intersection,
Car "a" stopped barely in time to
avoid striking Car "B," because
driver of Car "a" was blinded mo-
mentarily by high headlight beam
of Car &C." Car "B" had entered
intersection first. Was this narrow
escape the fault Of:
/. Car "B," because it should have
yielded to Car "A"?
Q. Car &C." because 1t was using
high beam?
5. Car "a" because driver should
have had eye sexamined?
Answer is "Yes" to question 2,
Section 40, paragraph ta) (5). Of
the traffic and motor vehicle regula-
tions requires that every motor
vehicle equipped with multiple
beam headlamps operating on the
highways Of the District, when
lights are required, shall use the

End Of Politics Demanded
In Traininq Schools

Harold E. Hegstrom, superintend-
ent of the National Training School
for Boys, demanded the curbing OF
political intervention in the admin
istration of juvenile training schools
in an address yesterday before the
American Prison Associations Con-
gress of Correction at Detroit, Mich,
it was reported by the Associated
Press.
AS result of frequent shakeups Of
the stats of institutions for juvenile
deHnquents when new political
groups gain Office, he charged, "the
competent and sincere new superin-
tendent does not stay in his position
long enough to learn through ex-
perience and association the intent,
program and scope of the problem. "
!. institutions must be taken out OF
politics." Mr.. Hegstrom declared.
"The State that plays politics with
institutions for children should be
severely censured"
Harold E. Donnell, Baltimore
superintendent of prisons, was elect
led president of the association. Mrs.
Maud Ballington Booth of the Vol
unteers of America, New York, was

Savings Bond Drive
To Be Renewed Here

A renewed drive to make the pub
lie again Savings Bond conscious"
will be held here from Armistice Day
through Pearl Harbor Day, it was
announced by Hugh Lynch, director
of the Savings Bond Division for
the District.
Some 1000 wartime Treasury Bond
statesmen will be recalled for the
drive to help encourage the public
to renew or continue bond purchases.
No goal has been set for the cam
paign, however, and no daily report
meetings will be held, Mr.. Lynch
said.
w. j. Waller, chairman of the Dis
trict Savings Bond Committee, urged
the purchase of bonds during the
drive to help prevent runaway in
f1ation.
He said that with current short
ages in consumer goods and high
wages, the purchase Of Savings
Bonds will act as stablizing factor
in the national economy.
The coming campaign was an
nounced yesterday at a meeting Of
bankers, businessmen and civic
leaders at the American Security g.

Francis j. Humphreys, 40, of
1923 Twenty-hr street NV, spent
another day-his ninth-in Munich
pal Court yesterday. He left be-
wildered and confused man.
His first eight trips were made
to declare his innocence of a jay
walking charge lodged against him
July 81. After five postponements
of his case, and being in the wrong
court twice, he finally was convict
ed September 27 and fined $40 by
Judge Aubrey b. Fenneu In Traffic
Court.
Yesterday on a second charge,
that of disorderly conduct, he was
fined $5 in Judge Walter j. Casey's
court. The latter charge was
placed against him when the ar
resting officer, Park Policeman e. M.
Sutley, alleged the defendant used
profanity as the officer sought to
give him ticket for jaywalking.
Humphreys originally posted 50
collateral on the jaywalking charge
and SIS collateral on the disorderly
conduct charge-a total of 81. He
also spent a few hours in jail, after
the fifth postponement of his case,
when he failed to provide . 500
bond set by the court.

Swelling the ranks of the National

mated. There are a few lower price
seats left in the balcony, but they
are limited to singles, he said.
During yesterdays rehearsal, the
