3 Held in Safe Robbery Attempt
Due to Routine Police Check

II you've ever wondered about
the tribulations of real-life cops
and robbers, here's sample:
At 4 am. today Pvt. John S.
Trodden walked into an alley in
the rear of the Savoy Theater.
5000 Fourteenth street NV, saw
a parked car and at least one
head.
He pulled his revolver and his
fiashlight and on approaching the
car found one man in the rear
seat and one in the front They
explained. at his inquiry, that they
were sleeping off drunk.
The policeman checked the reg
istration card which was attached
to the steering wheel. He then
asked for identification, where
upon one of the men handed him
a drivers license which didn't
check with the registration. Pvt.
Trodden suggested a drive to the
station.
They had no ignition key and
the policeman advised walking to
the nearest call box where he tele-
phoned for the patrol wagon and
a crane to pick up the car. Their
transportation arrived and the
crane followed, but by that time
the car had disappeared.
Five minutes later, Pvts. L. C..
Houff and L. B. Sims picked up
the car, operated by the owner
at North Capitol street and Flor
ida avenue. He was taken to the
18th precinct to await develop
mentS.
Meanwhile. Pvt. 'Trodden went
back To- the Savoy Theater, found
a rear gate open, a fire exit door

Tax Comparison

Dent Asked to Report
On Amounts Paid
In Nearby Counties
By Don S. Worren

District officials we're asked to-
day to submit a comparison of
real estate taxes paid by the
District with those on similar
properties in nearby Maryland
and Virginia to the House District
Committee studying substitute
plans for the rejected sales tax.
This was one development as
means were sought to raise addi-
tional revenue and avoid a huge
District deficit in the next fiscal
year.
When the House Monday re-
jected the proposed retail sales
tax, demands were made that the
property tax rate be increased to
fill much of the revenue gap. on
the argument that the District tax
rate was lower than that of other
large cities.
Assessment Variations Cited.
District officials and some mem
bers of Congress have explained
that the tax rate alone cannot be
considered because of .the wide
difference in the assessment level
in various Jurisdictions. A study
made last year by District officials
showed that the tax load on q
property here was higher than In
adjoining counties in Maryland
and Virginia.
Because of the renewed call for
higher property taxes. a spokes-
man for some District Committee
members said today he was asking
for a statement of the latest COM
parsons from District Assessor
Edward A. Dent and Budget Of
ficer Walter L. Fowler.
District Committee Chairman
Mcmillan has said he is willing to
call a meeting Of the group for q
general survey Of the whole tax
and financial problem, but not
until a majority of the unit fndi-
Gates they want a session.
Representative Smith. Demo-
crat, of Virginia, chairman Of the
Fiscal subcommittee in charge OF
tax bills to meet a potential $18.-
900 900 deficit. was not ready for
a move. He took the position the
issues should be allowed to SIM
mer for a time.
Payment Boost Talked Up.
Increasing declarations were
heard that "the only probable
solution" this year would be q
substantial boost in the Federal
payment. Members of both the
House and Senate expressed such
a view, including Chairman Nc
Grath of the Senate District Com
mittee, Senator Johnston, DEM
ocrat, of South Carolina and .
number of members of the House
District Committee.
There were calls, however. from
others for a second full-fledged
try for passage by the House Of

gress. Nor did he know whether

Communist Activities
In Unions Aided by
Taft Act, Green Says
Have Fed on Discomfort
And Unrest, AFL Head
Tells House Committee
By Jones Y. Newton

AFL President William Green
declared today that the activities
Of Communists in the labor move
ment have increased during the 20
months the Taft-Hartley Act has
been in effect.
Mr.. Green. testifying before a
House Labor Subcommittee on the
administration substitute for the
Taft-Hartley law, said commun-
ism had fed on the "discontent
and unrest" among workers re-
sulting from the restrictive fea-
lures of Taft-Hartley.
He added. however. that the in
crease in Communist activity had
come about in unions other than
those in the AFL. He did not
name the unions.
Chairman Lesinski of the full
Labor Committee agreed with Mr..
Green. He said that a Commu-
mist candidate had polled 10000
votes against him in an election
last year.
Indorses Administration Bill.
Mr.. Green again indorsed the
administration labor bill which
would substitute the old Wagner
Act, with some notifications, for
the Taft-Hartley law. Under
questioning by Representative
Nixon, Republican. of California,
Mr.. Green said that he personally
would have no objection to going
a little beyond the administration
bill and inserting a provision
which would require unions as
we'll as managements to bargain
for contracts in good faith.

Portugal was believed moving
today toward a decision to join
the North Atlantic security pact.
A generally favorable attitude
toward the alliance, despite con-
Germ over some aspects of it, was
indicated by a Portuguese EN-
bassy statement here last night.
The eight nations which have
drafted the treaty for probable
publication Friday hope that
Portugal, as well as Italy, Den
mark and Iceland will Join them
in signing it here early next
month.
Finishing touches were put on
the treaty draft in a meeting late
yesterday of Secretary of State
Acheson with the Ambassadors of
the other negotiating countries
Canada, Great Britain. France,
Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway
and Luxembourg.
Danish Minister Leaves.
Danish Foreign Minister Gustav
Rasmussen left for Copenhagen to
report to his government the in
formation he had gained here as a
basis for Denmark's decision about
joining the ALLIANCE. Iceland's
Foreign Minister, Bjarni Bene-
diktsson. was due to conclude a
similar mission today in a fare
we'll conference with Secretary
Acheson.
The Portuguese government has
been discussing possibility of en-
tering the lineup of Western pow
ers with the American Embassy in
Lisbon and with the State Depart
ment through its Embassy here.
The Embassy statement last
night noted that "the Portuguese
government was one of the first
governments to express satisfac-
ton on the idea of a pact of the
Atlantic nations" 1t made clear,
however. that a final decision has
not been reached and that ques-
tions still are being asked of the
