The county managers pre-
diction that 1870 would see

delegates.
Other predictions Mr.. Lund-
lberg offered were that news
papers would report on traffic
conditions Of the Jones Point
Bridge as well as failure Of the
Constitution Avenue Bridge To
relieve congestion. In 1870 an
Arizona Avenue Bridge will be
PLANNED. he prophesized.
He also saw completion OF

ton Of what Arlington will like

ted. He added there were no

sponsibility exercised in facine
problems" Mr.. Brown observed
He suggested as Q slogan for
the community the phrase

Grafton passed resolutions ask
ing the School Board to raise

RICHMOND, Va. Jan. 8 up

islative Council has recon.
mended that the States gift
tax be abolished and that the

termed the inheritance tax ad.
ministratively awkward and
otherwise Instantaneous. This
levy is placed on individual
beneficiaries or recipients al
varying rates.
An estate tax---one levy ap.
piled to the entire estate Of 1
decedent before its distribution
to beneflciaries--''is basically
and technically q sounder prin.
ciple and form OF death tax
more easily administered by the
taxing authority and compiled
by the taxpayer" the bar grour
said.
The Bar Committee recon-.
mended that estates of up tC
SIS. 900 be exempt. and pro.
posed a rate schedule ranging
from 2 per cent on estates Of
$25 900 to $4,000. and up TO
per cent for estates Of 81 mil.
lion or more.
Exemption Urged
The VALC accepted the S25..
900 exemption. and said an ad.
ditional $4,000 exemption
should be allowed on insuranc,
/ payable TO q named beneficiary
1t also said no preliminary Of

Reaction in Europe to WASH

pressed optimism from London

Mr.. Press said he has talked
with "a number of officials in

clearing house for fairs. He
added that he intends to dis
cuss Washington's offer with
many other persons. including
officers of the Brussels expo
sition, before returning here.
Before I left September -
I talked it over with the Wash

that, If we had a reasonable
reaction here, we would in
crease the size of the corpora

He added that a formal pro-
posal to the international

Unknowingly-and truthfully
-PEPCO officials last night
used a poetic line to explain q
power failure that left hun
dreds of homes in the Potomac
(MdO area in the dark for three
hours.
There is q snake in the
transformer" was the electric
company's reply to customers
who damned their Office tele-
phone lines for the duration Of
the failure-from 5::23 to $40
pm.
Years earlier, two British
writer's had used that line,
with a minor variation, if for
different reason:
There is a snake in the
grass" wrote Bacon.
There is a snake in the
bush," wrote Yarronton.
With the dexterity Of a poet,
PEPCO repairmen went to work
at the substation at Seven

termine the trouble.

Agencies Eye
10Th ST. Tract
Bridge Approach,
Park Use Studied

Three Washington agencies
are considering joint purchase
of a large tract of land near
the State Department for park
ing, highway improvement and
park development.
The area involved is between
Twentieth and Twenty : first
streets, E street and Virginia
avenue N.W.-a fast-changing
section completely surrounded
by Federal buildings, which has
troubled city planners for years.
No final action has been
taken on the plan, but the
scheme worked out by staff Of
ficials calls for:
/. The District Motor Vehicle
Parking Agency to buy the block
from Twentieth to Twenty first
along E street NV. for off,
street parking. This block-a
westward extension of Rawlins
Park, the plaza just north OF
the Interior Building-alread
is used largely for parking.
2. The District Highway De-
partment to buy an 80-foot
wide strip of land south of E
street, to be used as part of
the road system serving the
new Constitution avenue bridge,
3. The National Capital
Planning Commission to buy
a triangular tract south of the
highway acquisition, which
would be turned over to Ma
tional Capital Parks to round
out a big park area that al
ready exists on both sides OF
Virginia avenue.
1t is understood the Plan
ming Commission may ask
Congress for money to buy its
section next year.
The parking agency and the
District Commissioners, how
ever, repeatedly have not giyer
any definite approval to the
plan yet.
OfhcialS said that in years
to come it might be possible
to build a garage under the
parking lot, but they stressed
that this would not be don't
in the immediate future.
