Serious Crime
Down So Pct.

Serious crime in Washington
during the year ending last June
80 dropped SO per cent from
the previous fiscal period.
Police Chief Robert v. Muir
ray reported the city-wide fig
ure vas 1850.
Major cause for the decrease,
Chief 4 Murray said, has been
the reclassiflcation of so-called
aggravated assaults started IA
months ago. BY agreement with
the courts here, police now are
listing family squabbles as SIM
pie rather than aggravated as
saults.
Owing partly to this reclassi-
fication and partly to an in
crease in the number of petty
1arcenies, the Police Depart
ment's First Precinct took over
from the Second Precinct as the
most ridden with serious crime
With its 2,402 Part One" Of
lenses, the first precincts total
was actually 3 per cent lower
than that of the previous year
The second precinct registered
2.314 major offenses. a drop Of
% per cent.
Chief Murray noted the con-
tinuing high rate Of crimes
cleared by arrest. While 8 pei
cent lower than the all-time
high clearance rate of 56.2 per
cent in 1855. the clearance rec
ord for the past fiscal year still
is twice the national average,
the chief reported.

The District government is
about to launch its new with
holding tax program with hopes
it will get $5.3 million additional
in revenue annually.
Although the new program
does not become effective until
October l, the necessary ma
chinery is being set up now. The
effective date depends on the
first payment of wages to the
wage Garner around october 1.
Meanwhile. the Corporation
Counsel's office is working on a
final draft of the new regula-
tions. When ready, they will go
before 7 Che q District Commits
sioners for finai approval.
Generally, the new program
will be similar to the Federal
income tax withholding pro-
icedure. Robert j. Durham, adj
miniStrator of the Income and
Franchise Tax Division of the
assessors Office, which will ad-
minister the Withholding tax
law, is preparing instruction
booklets, which will go out to
all employers when ready. Upon
final approval Of the regulations,
tax tables and methods of with
holding will be made public, to-
|gether with a percentage method,
based on the amount of net tax
able income.
Exemptions Provided
Employers will compute the
wage earner's tax on the basis
of a gross income table and the
number of exemptions the wage
Garner claims. The employer will
furnish the wage Garner with a
D-4 fofm-a withholding ex-
emption certificate, showing the
number of exemptions the en-
lploye is entitled to take. He will
find this out and return it to
the employer.
This is a resident income tax,

McKe|din Seeks
Law Forbiddinu
Duck Batting
Decision Reached
In Talk With Group
OF Sportsmen

=~4 ANNAPOLIS, July 81 (R.-
The running controversy over
Maryland hunters batting ducks
IS headed again for the General
Assembly.
Gov. McKeldin, a duck hunter
himself, said yesterday he would
seek legislation bringing State
laws into conformity with Fed
eral regulations which prohibit
using bait.
Its just a mistake for us to
be out of step with all the other
States" the Governor said in
agreeing with a group of sports
men who visited his Office to
complain about the Haunting Of
Federal law.
Maryland regulations prohibit
scattering grain within 20 yards
of a duck blind but say nothing
about batting beyond that point.
Plenty of hunters do it and have
been outspokenly opposed to
Federal regulations which their
opponents say supercede State
laws.
So Seized Last Year
Federal agents arrested So of
them last year who were batting
within so yards of a blind. the
GNvorv10Y xryoC fold
This conflicting regulation
provides perfect atmosphere for
those who want to bait to do so,
said Daniel Poole Of the Wildlife
Management Institute, a ma
tional but non-Federal organiza-
ton. "These people are law
violators."
Other spokesman told the Gov
er1ior Maryland is the only State
that illegally approves of batting.
- MGKeldin agreed the situation
istHoatrageous." He said on a
duck hunting trip last year he
sat insa blind for two hours and
didn't get shot, whereas a man
who used bait in the same area
boosted Of having killed 70 ducks.
The legal bag limit is four.
"Seventy-two ducks!" Gov.
McKeldin repeated. why, that's
just slaughter"
Governor Enjoys Sport
The Governor took up duck
hunting three years ago and told
the group visiting him yester-
day 7 don't know of anything
Isenjoy more"
He directed Ernest Vaughn,
director of the Department of
Game and Inland Fish, to con-
suit the attorney general about
drafting legislation to bring
State game laws into conformity
with Federal statues. He also
suggested Mr.. Vaughn contact
Legislative Council leaders about
possibility of Introducing! the
measure through the council

reception from the General As
aeMblN 6 -four years ago. Mr..
Eat4gaan said after drafting it he
Coufdn even find a sponsor for
1t. AS a substitute, the Legisla-
ture passed a resolution pro-
hibiting batting within 200 yards
of a blind and this was incorpo-
rated into State regulations.

by the Governor then. however,
and didn't have active backing
