Reciprocity agreements in the
Washington area to return traffic
violators who have crossed State
lines was one of eight recommen-
Idations made today by a commit
tee of police and safety experts
from the District, Maryland and
Virginia.
The committees recommends
tions will be presented to the Com
fmissionerS- and Governors Con-
fere'1ce on Metropolitan Area
Traffic Problems next Wednesday
at the United States Chamber of
Commerce. -. -
The committee found a .'serfotis
deficiency" in having no means of
returning a traffic violator to the
community where the offense was
committed after he has crossed a
State line. 1t. left the problem of
Ewol'king cut a solution Z To the
Legislative heads of the jurisdic-
tions with the suggestion for reci-
|procity agreements asa guide.
The committee, one Of four that
will report to the conference,
found many deficiencies and diff
ferences" among the jurisdictions
in the keeping Of records, issuing
traffic violation notices, handling
of arrests. classification of offenses
and Interpretation of regulations.
Other Recommendation.
Other recommendations of the
committee. which was headed by
Maj. Robert ". Murray. superin-
tendent of the Metropolitan Police,
were: =
/. That all jurisdictions not now
doing so investigate. report, and
follow through on all trafiic acci-
dents.
2. Adoption of uniform regu-
'lations in the reporting of acci-
dents throughout the Metropoli-
tan area.
s. Use OF chemical tests in driv-
ing-while- under -the- influence of
liquor cases.

claring: s"I am not hard-hearted
callous or hardened toward an
nuitantS, as some individuals are
charging"
The Tennessee Democrat said
his opposition was based on his
contentious that increased an
nuities for retired Federal work
ers would endanger future bene-
fits for present Federal workers
and would impose additional taz
burdens on the Nations taxpay-
lers.
Declaring that he has the deep
est sympathy for retired Federal
workers who are in financial dis
tress, Mr.. Murray said, neverthe-
less, he is opposed to increase in
their pensions. Annuitants already
|are receiving payments in a ratio
|of IL to l over what they con-
tributed, he said. Furthermore
he said. the retirement system is
now SIS billion in the red.
4 \ X
REBUTTAL - Several of the
committee members disputed Mr..
Murray's contention, and more
replies will be made as the hear
ingS progress.
There's no doubt that the COM
mittee overwhelmingly favors
some kind of an annuity increase.
Both Democrats and Republicans
favor a pension raise. The ques-
ton now is whether it's members
can prod the chairman to speed
up the hearings so enough time
will remain for Congress to act on
the legislation. One top member
says he will press for a showdown,
If there is any stalling.
The committees next hearing
date on the bill is set for Tues
day.
One of the strongest replies to
Mr.. Murray's statement was made
by Representative Rhodes, Demo-
crat. of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Rhodes said the Govern
ment has a definite obligation to
its former employees to see to it
that they are given pensions to
maintain at least a minimum
standard of living. The Pennsyl-
vanian said it is callous and cruel
to ignore their plight. ~ 49,.
SENATE ACTION DUE-Mean-
while, Senate Majority Leader
Mcfarland has promised that
Senate action on the annuity in
crease measure will be taken soon.
The Senate was to have voted
on the bill several days ago, but
the prolonged debate on the for
eign aid bill delayed action on it.
Senator Mcfarland said the
Senate will vote on the retirement
measure the first chance it gets,
probably within a week. He pre-
dicted it will be approved without
any trouble.
The measure Is sponsored by
Senator Smathers, Democrat, of
Florida, and would provide an
annual 500 increase for each six
months an employe has been re-
tired, with the total not to exceed
1924, or Is per cent, whichever
is less. The increase would re-
main in effect only until June 80,
1854, unless Congress voted suffi-
cient funds by that time to pay for
it's cost. Until that time, the
funds would come out of the pres
ent civil service retirement system.
