Washington Leads Nation
In Auto Safety Progress

Washington ranked first among
the cities Of comparable size In
reducing traffic fatalities during
1916, according to Ned H. Dearborn:
president Of the National Safety
Council, who was In Washington
last week for a conference with
George E. Keneipp, director Of
Trafic for the District.
The councils board which con-
ducts a national safety contest will
meet next month to select the
states and cities with the best traffic
records for the year and Washing
ton, while last year was in second
place, expects to lead this year,
according to Mr.. Keneipp.
The traffic death record indicates
that on a population basis, Wash
ington ranks first in the Nation
among cities in the 500, ,000-or lover
population group, Mr.. Dearborn
said, ION the basis of registrations,
which unfortunately cannot take in
to account the large number of
vehicles ON your streets registered
outside of the District. Washington
is now in second place and is
definitely in the running for first
place at the meeting next month. y

Miss 0vereI|, Fiance
Embrace al HEARING
On Parents Staying
By the Associated Press

SANTA ANA, Calf, Mar. a.
Showing little concern except for
each other, Beulah Louise Overell,
17-year -old college freshman, and
her fiance, George r. Gollum, 81,
arm in arm, were arraigned today
on a charge of numbering the girls
wealthy parents aboard their yacht
in Newport harbor last Saturday
night.
The sweethearts embraced warm
ly as they met in the court room
of Justice of the Peace d. ]. Dodge,
at Costa Mesa, for the first time
since their arrest last Wednesday.
Gollum whispered in Miss Overells
ear as he held her close for min
ute or more.
They stood arm-in-arm while the
justice read the charge, accusing
them of the deaths of Walter
Overell, 81. head OF Los Angeles
finance company, and his wife,
Beulah, 81.
Miss Overeu Laughs.
1t did not specify how the parents
were killed. but Sheriff James
Musick and r. r. Hodgkinson, New
port Beach chief of police, have said
they have conclusive evidence"
that they were beaten to death with
hammer before their yacht was
blown up with dynamite attached to
clock and detonator.
Miss Overell laughed during the
proceedings, while her lawyer and
Gollum,s demanded an immediate
hearing and Deputy District At
torney J. P. Smith argued that his
Office would be unable to prepare
its case before Thursday in view
of the large mass of evidence and
the many witnesses it has to present.
Capt. Thomas McGaff, head of
the sheriffs Identification bureau,
said today this evidence includes
a small screw driver, believed to
have been driven into Mrs. Overell's
head by the force of the explosion
He said the instrument is not be-
/ lieved to have been a death weapon.
Sdy IldAuUucT WAS OSCu.
Sheriff Musick and Chief Hodg-
kinson said they are prepared to
present proof that the Overlls were
killed with a machinist's hammer
before their 47-foot yacht, the Mary
E., exploded and sank in 18 feet
of water about $50 feet from shore.
Col. M. B. Wellington, Miss
Overell's attorney, urging an i'm
mediate hearing for the accused
pair, argued that the District At
torney had had ample time to pre-
pare his case, and objected to the
matter being taken before the coun-
ty grand jury, which has been called
to meet Thursday.
1t was pointed out that should
the grand jury return an indictment
before the preliminary hearing, set
for the same day, the case would
be taken direct to the superior court
without the necessity of a prelimi-
nary hearing, involving disclosure
Of the States evidence.
Mr.. Smith disclaimed any knowl-
edge OF a plan to take the matter
before the grand jury. Miss Overell
and Gollum were not given an op-
portunity today to plead to the
charge. That will be a part of
Thursdays hearing.

lot of people make up their minds
how they want to proceed"
Military Provisions.
Mr.. Taber said some think the aid
to Greece and Turkey program is a
major factor in fixing the budget
ceiling, but added, frankly I do
not"
According to Mr.. Taber, the for
eign aid program includes $3.50, ,000,-
600 apiece for military purposes in
Greece and Turkey" He said he
wants to find out how much of that
is to come out Of stocks on hands,
and how much will be draft on the
Treasury. He said he wants the same
information as to how much rehabil-
itation aid for Greece may come out
of surpluses on hand.
Meanwhile the CIO filed with the
House Ways and Means Committee
a statement saying that the present
tax bill lis plan to throw sop to
ow-income individuals, with all the
gravy going to high-income people" J"
Instead of this bill, the CIO pro-
posed an alternative plan that
would transfer a tax burden of So
500, 900 from low-income earners to
corporations and to the high individ-
ual income brackets.
Would Raise Exemptions.
While protesting that it had not
been permitted to present its tax
views during the brief hearing on
the bill, the CIO filed a statement
suggesting among other things:
That personal exemptions, now
$500 for each person, be raised for
earners of less than $1,000 to $2,500
for a married couple, 81 $50 for single
persons, and remain at $500 for each
dependent. 80
Restoration of prewar excise tax
rates.
Changes in the corporation tax
program to: reduce rates on corr
porations having net income of
less than $4,000; restore wartime
excess profits taxes, but with the
rate reduced from 95 to IS per cent;
levy an "undistributed profits tax"
at the rate of 10 per cent on all
prof1ts-except the first 5000
which are not paid out of dividends.

Budget
Continued From First PageD

than the House on debt retirement
by earmarking at least $4,000, 900 900
for that purpose. A further Senate
amendment favored applying all
proceeds from sale of war surpluses
to debt retirement.
Compromise Favored, 7 to 2
When the conferees met for the
first time yesterday to compose their
differences, the Senate managers
stood 7 to in favor of the IS, 5,250,-
900 900 compromise cut in expendi-
lures.
= Representative Taber, Republican
of New York, said the House con-
ferees were unanimous in rejecting
the Senate offer. This does not
mean, however, that all Of the House
members think a deeper cut should
be made. Mr.. Taber said he thought
it was fair to assume some of the
minority House members voted
against the compromise because
they wanted a smaller cut than S.
$50 o,O00, 900.
The two Senate conferees who op-
posed the compromise were Minority
Leader Barkley of Kentucky, and
Senator Gurney, Republican OF
South Dakota, chairman of the Sen
ate Armed Services Committee
These two Senators felt the Sen
ate was yielding too much to the
House, according to Chairman
Bridges of the Senate Appropria-
tionS Committee.
Specific ALLEGATION Urged.
Mr.. Taber said some of his House
colleagues thought the budget cell
ing resolution should allocate spe-
ciflc sum, $500 900, ,000s for tax re-
duction, and not to exceed 81 ,30O,-
600 900 for debt retirement. The
Senators did not warm up to that
debt figure, he said.
Although the conferees parted
with no time fixed for anotnes
meeting, one conferee last night
discounted reports that final agree.
ment on the overall budget cut
might be delayed until both Houses
have acted on most of the annual
appropriation bills.
No matter what overall economy
goal is set in the pending budget
resolution, 1t will not be binding on
the House and Senate. The real
test will be how much the rwc
Houses knock out of the detailed
expenditures for each department
Only the Treasury Post Office sup
ply bill has passed the House, and
none has passed the Senate.
"Phony," Democrats Say.
The House reduced many items in
the Treasury-Post Office measure
but the bulk of the reduction-$800,-
600. .0oO-was taken from the Treas
ury estimate of tax refunds ne>s
year. Democrats called this a
"phony" saving, contending that tax
refunds are a fixed obligation. Re-
publicans argued, however, that il
tax rates are cut at this session
there is a good prospect less will
be needed for refunds.
Asked if the conferees were wait
ing for the 100000, 900 Greek Turk
ish aid program to be disposed o1
before settling the budget fight, Mr.
Taber replied:
How long do you think it viii
take to settle the Greek situation?
do know that situation has great
many angles to it and great many
questions to be answered before {
