Cut In Budget Opposed.
The Progressive Party Of the Dis
trict, represented by Mrs. Gertrude
Evans, took issue with the Commits
sioners for wanting to hold down
the size of the budget and for ad-
vocating sales tax. She protested:
1.-THE only manner that funds can be
raised, 1t Is contended by the Com
missioners, instigated by the Board
Of Trade, Is to foist sales tax on
the already overburdened popula-
ton" She called this "the most
|regressive form" Of taxation, which
she said hit the low-income groups
and argued there were other revenue
means.
She proposed broadening of the
Districts personal income tax levy
a proposal which has been rejected
at least twice by Congress, higher
real estate taxes and an increase
in the Federal payment. Instead
OF reducing the budget, she said,
it should be increased because
otherwise major services would be
inadequate.
Milton s. Kronheim, wholesale
liquor dealer, argued for a no COM
promise" stand for a higher Federal
payment. He warned the Commits
sioners they would be playing with
fire" II they asked Congress for ad-
ditional taxes. The present tax
load here, he said, already is driv-
ing business over the boundaries
into Maryland and Virginia.

be heard. He said he the nopened
the door and pulled the Negro,
who was still clinging to him,
