Takoma Park Council
Hears Report on
Deficit Of S73,778

The Takoma Park City Coun-
cile was advised last night that
the expenditures for the fiscal
year ending last June 80 exceed
ed the revenue received during
that period by $73,778.
The certified public accounting
firm of O'Connell g. Co. of Sill
yer Spring, invited attention to
the report and made certain
comments and observations. The
most important item, the firm
said, was the net deficit of $44,-
060 despite the fact that the
actual revenue exceeded the an
ticipated income by $37,829 and
that there was a surplus of $29,-
718 to begin the year.
The anticipated revenue was
set at 1891, 767, whereas the &C
tual receipts amounted to $429,-
SGT .28. providing the excess of
$37, 1923. The anticipated ex-
penditures amounted to $685.
100. whereas the actual expend-
itures were $503,375, or $184,584
in excess Of the approved APP
preparations. All the surplus
was used up and the net result
was the deficit, the report con-
cluded.
Hold Public Hearing. .
Earlier in the evening the coun-
Gil conducted a public hearing
on a proposal under cor1sidera-
ton for the Improvement of
Maple avenue between Philadel-
phia and Carroll avenues. The
council felt that some steps
should be taken Immediately to
widen or make it one-way
thoroughfare in order to correct
the dangerous traffic situation
existing at the present time.
About 100 persons attended
the hearing and numerous pro-
posals were presented. A sug-
gested ban on parking on Maple
avenue and Cedar avenues failed
to win any support.
Among suggestions offered
were reduction of speed from 80
to % miles per hour and that the
city should pay for any WIDEN
ing and not the taxpayers inn
mediately concerned.
Speed Is State Matter.
Mayor George M. Miller in
PRODUCED George M. Lewis of the
commission who said that COM
munities do not have power to
establish speed regulations and
that the legal rate is 80 in resi-
Dental section and Is in business
sections. He said that local
authority was vetoed by the
Governor of Maryland.
The Council deferred action.
The Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
road informed the Council it
was not responsible for excessive
drainage of storm water on its
right f-way. The railroad said
the condition is the problem of
Takoma Park and the Washing
ton Suburban Sanitary Commits
sion, but that the company was
willing to cooperate in over
coming the drainage difficulties.

Here's Story And Pictures OF Auto Accident Near Bowling
Green, KY, That Took The Lives Of -Four Jacksonians

BOWLING GREEN, KY. Sept.
l Especially - Four persons died
last Tuesday in one of the worst
highway accidents ever recorded
in Warren County.
And this afternoon, a fifth per-
son injured in the wreck lay near
death at City-County Hospital. His
chances of survival were considered
poor.
Several lifelong residents of
warren County said they could
not recall any accident here in
which so many died.
State Police records available at
the Third District Office also show
no comparable mishap.
Killed in today's wreck:
Charles Witt, Is, Route 2, Scots
vile.
Solomon Young, "a; Jeff McEl-
roy, 40, and a woman tentatively
identified as Lillian Harper, about
80, all Negroes and residents of
Jackson, Miss.
Critically injured was Charles E.
Harper, about 80, also of Jackson
and believed to be the husband of
the dead woman.
The crash occurred shortly be-
fore am, some II miles north
of Bowling Green on U. S. 31-W.

Smiths Grove.
Three vehicles, one of them a
State Police patrol car, were in
volved, but all of the dead and in
jured were passengers in two of
the automobiles.
State Trooper Joe Allen. travel
in alone in the patrol car, escaped
without injury. He was shaken up,
but did not require disqualification.
Witnesses to the tragedy, includ-
ing Trooper Allen, gave this ac-
count:
Witt was driving toward Bowl
ing Green in a new 1854 Mercury
sedan on which less than 800 miles
had been registered.
His speed was estimated at be-
tween 80 and 95 miles an hour.
Shortly before he reached the
liquor store located on a slight
curve, he had passed a long line of
automobiles and had just pulled
back onto the right side of the
road.
His car apparently slipped off
onto the right shoulder, causing
him to lose control.
The vehicle careened back across
the highway, tore the left side
off the north-bound Pontiac in
which the Negroes were riding,
ricocheted into the State Police car
following behind the Pontiac and
came to rest with the rear end of
Wits car resting on top of the
State Police vehicle.
Trooper Allen said he saw the
approaching car go out of control,
slammed on his brakes and came
to a complete halt. The driver of
the Pontiac, still not definitely de-
termined, also apparently saw the
careening Mercury, put on his
brake sand attempted to pull off
the road.
Allen said he saw Wits car
slam into the Pontiac and then
lay down on the front seat Of
his patrol car to cushion himself
against the unavoidable impact.
The Pontiac was knocked COM
pletely off the highway and two
or three of the occupants were
thrown out.
State Police said they traced,
through Mississippi officers, the
ownership of the Pontiac to Young,
but it is not known if he was the
driver.
Witt and the three Negroes APP
parently died instantly.
State Police Sgt. Willard Sharp,
head of this State Police office,
said he can recall no other acct
dent here in which so many have
died.
Seven years ago, five perso..',
were killed just across the War
rem County line in Barren County
when a truck loaded with straw
berry pickers was sideswiped by
another truck. And some Is years
ago, a Warren County family of
four burned to death in their auto

of organized labor construed the
offer as an end of Garment or
ganizing in that section. But no
one should have expected all of
these lowwage-paying "benefac-
tors" to line up the next morning
in from on the Unions regional
offices to get application blanks
for the moratorium" offer. We
didn't even expect a small crowd.
However, in view of the cries of
anguish and the loud wailing set
up by these honorable profiteers
every time a Garment organizer
appears on the Southern scene,
there seemed to be the possibility
that handful of them would take
the union at its word and step for
ward to take advantage of the
unique offer.
Not one single savior has turned
up.
They have confused and fright
ened numerous communities with
their warning that all the Union
wants is to collect more dues and
to take the work back from the
South. (They never stop to eX-
plain how both these purposes can
be accomplished simultaneously
By backing their professed con-
Germ for the South and its garment
workers with at least the 90-cent
minimum they could have insured
keeping their employees out of the
ILGWU, free from the prospect of
paying dues, desperately dependent
on the ow-standard jobs they pro-
vide.
Instead, these avid bargain hunt
ers consider even 90 cents an hour
to be outrageously high. They are
protecting" the Southern garment
worker against the $50 weekly pay
envelope. They are safeguarding
Southern communities against an
nual earnings of $1,872 when there
are So full weeks of work, some
thing virtually unprecedented in

President Reddix
Vacations In Cuba

Ponce de Leon searched for the
Fountain of YOUTH" but Jack
son Colleges illustrious president,
Jacob L. Reddix found it in Cuba.
He returned this week from a Gu
ban vacation looking and acting
20 years younger and filled with
inspiration and new ideas. During
his stay in Cuba, President Reddix
was the guest of the American
Vice-Consul, Miss Lula Mae Hub
bard, a Mississippi born Negro
woman with % years in the diplo-
matte service.
When a man, who is not strang-
err on any continent, becomes so
impressed with visit to any place,
it is worthy of note. In describing
his Cuban vacation, DR.. Reddix
said that the sum total of all of
his travels did not equal his two
weeks stay in Cuba. pinch pen
MES, live on bread and water, make
any sacrifice that will permit
vacation in Cuba" was his ad-
mention to an informal group Of
Jackson College students.
With the words, Havana is the
most beautiful city in the world"
DR.. Reddix began a verbal picture
of that city that would give
casual observer the opinion that
he was a representative of the
Cuban Chamber of Commerce. A
part of his description follows:
although there are white build
ings in Cuba, colors are used ex-
tensively. Screens are Unnecessary
because flies and mosquitoes have
been pract teal y exterminated
through a national sanitation eff
fort. Slum areas of Havana have
been replaced with subdivisions
of beautiful modernistic homes.
The educational system has been
so well planned and organized that
there are no poor schools in Cuba.
The excellent Teachers College is
only one of many parts of the Uni
versity of Havana. World renown
'Tropicanna' is everything that it
is reputed to be and perhaps more.
1t is an open air club with a seat
ing capacity exceeding 5000.
During inclement weather, a
huge canopy controlled by cleo
tricity covers the club. Profits

DR.. Reddix resided in Cuba's
famous Hotel Ell Presedente, and
had for a guide the grand daugh-
ter of Comes, the father of the
Cuban Republic. Before very long,
the highly polished brass of Jack
son College will be polished bright
err for Cuban dignitaries who will
be visiting DR.. Reddix.
