Annapolis was possibly the first

1888 when the Baltimore 81 Ohio
opened it's line to Washington,

from Baltimore to Annapolis. It
was called the Baltimore &

line was electrified later.

French Regime Faces
New Crisis as BidauIt
ASKS Vote on Tax Plan
By the Associated Press

PARIS, Dec. 28.-The fate OF
Frances government today hung
on vote of confidence by the
National Assembly on Premier
Georges Bidault's tax increase pro-
gram to meet a record-breaking
budget for 1850.
Mr.. Bidault climaxed an all
night session early today by asking
for the second vote of confidence
within a week.
Mr.. Bidault summoned am
emergency session of the cabinet
this afternoon to map the STRAIT
egy of the government for tho
budget debate in the Assembly.
Under a constitutional require
ment for a "cooling-of period"
the vote probably will not take
place until early Friday.
If Mr.. Bidault loses, there Is
little hope that his successor would
be able to gain the confidence OF
the Assembly. This would mean
the cabinet can call national elec-'
lions without approval by Parlia-
ment and Deputies would then be
faced with defending their seats
at the polls.
Victory Would Assure Budget.
II the Premier wins the vote
of confidence, his bitterly con-
tested budget of 2,257, 900, 900 900
francs ($6,44O,o 100000 probably
will be pushed through with the
1923, 000, 900 ($435 ,O00,000D tax
increase which has been opposed
by both rightwing and Commu-
mist groups.
The Assembly has been debat-
ing the budget, item by item. since
last Saturday when Mr.. Bidault
won by a slim margin his resolu-
ton to put the contested program
on the agenda.
His coalition cabinet already
has compromised with the opposi-
ton by lowering the budget, but
he has stuck to his insistence that
it must be balanced by higher
taxes.

any one by repeated knocking.
Refrigerator Was in Order.
The sister, Mrs. Mary Fabsik,
then smelled fumes. She went
out on a fire escape and peered
through the children's bedroom
window. She saw the children in
their bed and, frightened by their
rigid position, rushed back into
the building and called police.
Police broke in through the
children's window and found the
three fifth-story apartment
filled with fumes. All the win
dows were closed.
A gas company representative
said the kitchen refrigerator was
in order but that, lacking ven
tilation, +. it apparently consumed
oxygen in the room.
Mrs. Fabsik said she last saw
the family Christmas eve when
the children were asleep and the
parents were decorating the tree.

Annapolis in anticipation Of CIV
ing up the electric passenger
service. It was thought at that
time the electric service would
continue only for 10 years but the
war came along with the gasoline
shortages and the line even paid
dividends. That reprieve is over
now. Passenger revenue has been
going down since the war ended,
The line will continue to haul
freight by rail to Annapolis, but
that is dwindling, too. The one
economic operation with which
trucks cannot compete is the
movement of coal-the gondolas
are loaded right at the coal mine
and there is no labor of trans
ferring the load. All the lire has
to do is to roll them into Annapo-
lis. But the changeover to oil is
cutting down on coal. The Naval
Academy today uses oil which is
hauled to Annapolis by truck.

The End Is in Sight for Mory|onds Old Railway
By George Kennedy

While the Baltimore &, Annapo-
Ms Railway Co. obtained permis-
sion the other day from the
Maryland Public Service Com
mission to give up passenger
service on its line at the end Of
the year, it is planned to keep
the cars running into March.
Sometime in that month. the
electric cars Of the line - once
considered marvels of speed -
will make their last run. It will
be the end of an electric inter-
urban system that once took
happy Washington families on
outings to Chesapeake Bay points
-(the Washington end Of the line
was abandoned in 1880 and it
will leave Annapolis the only
State capital without rail passen-
ger service.
In anticipation of the end, this
reporter went to Annapolis ard
rode over to Baltimore or the
line. It starts right out by crossing
the wide mouth of the Severn on
a wooden trestle, providing
beautiful scene from seats on
either side of the aisle.
The car picked up speed on the
single track in the woodland across
the river. It was a 1914 model
and still showed signs of early
century magnificence. Although
the run is only an hour, it con-
tanned toilet facilities, and the
paneling and trim were of red
mahogany. The seats were covered
with imitation leather.
Once Used Coal Stoves.
"They used to be green plush,
said the conductor. George w.
Harris, who has been with the
line 81 years. and we used to
have coal stoves. During the first
World War we couldn't get hard
coal and the gas would almost
asphyxiate you.
I'VE used to have a lot of picnic
parties to shore points, but they
all seem to use automobiles now.
When there is some snow and ice
on the road these cars fill up with

A job has been found for Mr..

Special Law Bars Order
On Redecorotion Here

The District rent control ad-
ministrator said today the act
governing rent control here would
not permit issuance of an order
requiring periodic redecoration OF
apartments such as is In effect
in New York. ..-.
In the Washington Metropoli-
tan Area outside the District
boundaries, however, national
rent-control regulations are in ef-
feet. Whether the New York pol
icy change would be applied to
the suburban area outside the
District could not be learned def
nitely today.
II rather doubt that the New
York policy will be extended to
this area" a spokesman for the
Office Of the Housing Expediter
said.
Housing Expediter Tighe E.
Woods could not be reached for
comment.
Robert r. Cogswell, District rent
administrator, pointed out that
the District Rent Act was differ
ent from the law governing the
rest of the country. d.
1t provides, he said, that ten
ants shall be entitled to receive
the same service standard as ex-
listed on January j, 1941. date OF
the District rent freeze.
Under the District law, he ex-
planned, it is up to the tenant
to prove what the service stand
ard in an apartment building was
as of the freeze date. This, he
said, is often difficult to do. In
many cases, no definite service
standard was in effect at the time
Of the rent freeze.
In cases OF apartments built
subsequent to the freeze date, he
added. landlords had in most
cases failed to set q service stand
ard. and no standard was adopted
by the rent control administration
to apply to them.
Mr.. Cogswell said that under
the District law, If q tenant is no,
satisfied with the landlords pres

istration for q hearing.
If either party isn't satisfied
with the administrators ruling
subsequent to the hearing the las
provides for an appeal to the MI.
nicipal Court. Mr.. Cogswell said.
In the absence Of an agree
ment, the common law In the Dis
trict doesn't require that houses
or apartments be redecorated,
