THE EVENING STAR, Washington, D. c. Al;
FRIDAY. NOVEMBER

Of the time Dylan Thomas
picked UP a police escort in
Philadelphia and drove, sirens
screaming. to a lecture date at
Swarthmore College.
Afterwards he asked the
motorcycle policemen for re-
ceipt which would testify to the
fact that he had arrived under
police escort" Mr.. Richman re-
lated.
The Swarthmore anecdote
led to another in which MIR.
Richman described the poet,
standing on a Georgetown
doorstep. reciting Shakespeare
at dawn for all the world to
hear.
This was Dylan at his best"
he said.
Mrs. Biddle said it was i'm
portant ito distinguish between
Dylan Thomas as a poet and
as a house guest"
All four Of his friends were
instrumental in planning the
scheduled appearance of Emlyn
Williams in Lisner Auditorium
on November %.
The Welsh actor will portray
"Dylan Thomas Growing Up"
The performance is under the
patronage of British Ambassa-
dor and Lady Caccia. Tickets
to the benefit performance will
be available through the In
stitute of Contemporary Arts,

reached the last quatrain,
and the words "A young boy
dead he tried and tried but
just couldn't get it out" he
said.
Later. Huntington Cairns,
secretary of the board Of the
National Gallery of Art, asked
Mr.. Biddle to tell the story
about Dylan Thomas and his
rather erratic wife.
Police Escort
1T seems that Thomas lost
patience with his wife at a
party in New York" Mr.. Biddle
said. when we asked why she
was looking so battered, he re-
piled Had to give her one in
the pouth-jawing too much,
y know" said Mr.. Biddle.
HE was a typical Bohemian
as well as a brilliant poet" said
Mr.. Cairns. His Soho days
account for that"
This reminded Mr.. Richman

900 in fuel taxes to the extent
that it fails to make a ga per
cent profit. At issue is the base
on which the Ga per cent is
to be figured.
Mr.. Chalk seeks a $25 mil
lion base representing the gross
revenues for the past year.
Congress recommended that
the Commission adopt the gross
revenue base "as soon as prac-
ticable."
Company officials earlier
feared the commission planned
to slash the base to about SIT
million. a figure geared to a
price Mr.. Chalk paid for the
company.
The present traditional base
is $18 million, representing
original cost of the company
minus depreciation. The larger
the base. the more tax ex-
emption will be available to
the company.
Mr., Hayes said the sessions
would be resumed at 10 am.
Wednesday. After this meeting.
he said. he hoped his commits
sion could release its tax recon-
mendation to the District Com
miSsioners. City heads are ex-
pected to accept the utilities

The mood of the four closest
friends the Welsh poet had in

The three members of the pres
ent board are Governor Aronson's
appointees. The paradox of this
situation is that, in general, those
who cuss the board for its rather
unrestrained tendency 10 advo-
cate reaching more deeply into
peoples purses, do not associate
Governor Aronson with this crit
icism. And, oddly, it seems that
Democrats in the legislature,
rather than the Republicans as a
group, are the defenders of the
boards policies, especially in re-
gard TO increasing rates of taxa
ton, seeking new sources of tax
alton and putting a heavy hand
on those who are evading taxes.
1t is said, and not without con-
siderable justification, that the
present state board of equaliza-
ion is really trying to do a job.
Perhaps the boards approach is
not always as diplomatic as it
might be, but it could be said,
too, that in the realm of collect
ing taxes finesse is not always
the most effective method. His
torically, tax collectors have new
er been popular.
Quite a number of legislators,
but probably a minority, feel 1t
is high time to shift the Emphasis
from levying more taxes to cut
ting the costs of government. In
the abstract, reducing govern
mental expenditures has wide
spread approval among those who
