On the Senate side, there was
a suggestion that. with some

of the bargain when city taxes
were jumped by $40 million OF

Inside Story Of
Outer BuIdoniu
BY JACK JONAS

The principally of Outer
Baldonia, a fun-loving little
isle, is having trouble with
people who insist on taking it
too seriously.
Just recently" Miss Flor
ence McGinniss said, "a lady
who was doing a series of tele-
vision shows about the en-
bassies of Washington called
to inquire about doing show
on our legation.
"She was so serious, hated
to tell her"
Miss McGinniss works for
Russell Arundel, a Soft-drink
bother here, who is also Prince
Russell I, Prince of Princes of
Outer Baldonia, a three-acre
island off Nova Scotia. It's
about the size of Sycamore
Island in the Potomac off
Glen Echo Heights.
The island was known as
Outer Bald Tusket, or Outer
Badly, until Mr.. Arundel heard
1t was for sale for $3.50. He
bought it, changed the name
to Outer Baldonia, whipped up
a constitution, declared him.
self Prince of Princes, and set
about creating a retreat for
blue fin tuna fishermen.
He built, on the treeless
island, a 30-by-40-foot stone
clubhouSe-"the worlds only
example of Outer Baldonian
architecture" importuned

Death Probed
AT Pooks Hill

An investigation is under way
today in the death of man
under mysterious circumstances
yesterday in the Pooks Hill
apartments off Rockville pike in
Bethesda.
The dead man was identified
by Detective 1t. John P. Leahy
as Lonnie Juel Bailey. about 35
of the 1900 block of Leland
street, Chevy Chase. 1t. Leahy
listed the man as steward at
the Columbia Country Club.
Police said Mr.. Bailey had
been dead for several hours when
they were called to the apart
ment house about $50 O'Clock
last night The body was found
in the fifth-fioor apartment of a
friend. identified by 1t. Leshy
as Ralph A. Mckee. AZ, an up
holsterer..
Autopsy Performed
An autopsy was performed
under ithe supervision OF DR.
Frank j. Broschart, Montgomery
County medical examiner. but
the cause of death was not de-
termined. Parts of the body
were sent TO the State medical
examiners Office in Baltimore
for analysis.
There we're indications that
considerable drinking had gone
on in the apartment before Mr.
Bailey died, 1t. Leahy said.
Police were called after a cab
driver, Dennis r. Burgess, was
summoned by Mr.. Mckee to re-
move Mr.. Bailey to the hospital
1t. Leahy said. The cab driver
however realized the man either
was seriously hurt or dead and
notified police.
Tells Police of Drinking
Detectives were told by Mr.
Mckee that Mr.. Bailey and
another unidentified man came
to the apartment early yesterday
and that all three drank beer
and whisky.
At one point while the three
were together police were told
that the third man demanded
money from Mr.. Mckee but was
refused. Mr.. Mckee reported the
stranger beat him up by blacken-
ing his right eye and cutting his
lip. He told police that the third
man and Mr.. Bailey then started
arguing while he himself passed
out.
1t. Leahy quoted Mr.. Mckee
as saying he was still groggy
yesterday morning but managed
to clean up some blood of Mr..
Balley's face and then left him
on the floor throughout the day.
There have been no arrests.

ate restored the cut. Then,
later, there was compromise
at $l8 million, for the current
fiscal year ending June 80.
Some weeks ago, the Commits
sioners asked that this lost" 50
million be restored.
The House rejected this but
on the same day approved an
all-time record budget for the
District for the next fiscal year,
beginning July /, and granted
the full $50 million Federal
share, the highest amount pos
sible under the existing law.
New Ceiling Set
Since that time, Congress has
enacted a new revenue bill for
the District, boosting city taxes
by more than $40 million for a
full year of collections and rails
ing the authorized Federal pay
ment to $23 million.
Senate hearings will begin
soon on the regular District
budget for the next fiscal year
with that new $23 million Fed
eral payment in mind.
Meanwhile, the second supple
mental appropriation bill went
before the House with a pro-
vision to restore that lost 50
million. 1t was rejected there.
The District Commissioners
asked the Senate committee to
put it back. But late yesterday
Chairman Hayden. of the Senate
Appropriations Committee. an
nounced that it had decided to
go along with the House.
In view of this decision, it
seemed there was no chance that
the Senate would upset this
judgment.
New Estimate Submitted
One OF the reasons was that
the Senate committee had called
on District officials to make a
new estimate as of the latest
possible time of the total reve-
nues to be collected during the
present fiscal year.
This was done, and the report

.BridgeFunds
BY HAROLD B. ROGERS

~ A1s ASO oLANo
The Senate Appropriations
Committee has restored 100000,
stricken by the House. to buy
Maryland land on which to seat
one end of the authorized Jones
Point Bridge.
Replacing this fund in the
second supplemental appropria-
ton bill late yesterday. the COM
mittee sent the big measure con-
tanning funds for several agen-
cies to the Senate floor for
action.
Committee Chairman Hayden.
Democrat of Arizona. expressed
hope the measure could come up
before the Senate Friday. All
funds carried in the multimil-
lion-dollar measure are for use
in this fiscal year ending June 80,
Up TO Conference
If the Senate approves the
half-million item. it would 90
in the bill to conference with
the House.
Proponents of the delayed
Jones Point Bridge plan were
encouraged by the committee
action. hoping it may help clear
the way for construction of the
span.
The committee had been re-
lquested by Conrad Wirth. di-
rector of the National Park
Service. to restore the S500000
cut by the House. But he also
had strongly urged the Senators
to restore to the Interior De-
partment's own 1897 appropria-
ton bill $l3.9 million for con-
Struction of the bridge, which
had been stricken by the House
The same Senate committee
will meet about Thursday to act
on the big appropriation bill for
Interior.
Outcome Uncertain
Whether the S13.9 million for
construction of the bridge will be
restored to the bill by the Sena-
tors remains to be seen.
Meantime. legislation which
has been the cause of House ac-
ton striking both items about
the bridge, is pending before the
House after being approved by
the House District Committee.
1t would transfer jurisdiction
over the span from the Interior
Department to the Commerce
Departments Bureau of Public
Roads. This bureau already is
planning the bridge. under a
working agreement with the Ma
tional Park Service, 1t may come
up for House vote the next Dis
trict day.
