Motorists crossing Key Bridge
from George Washington Me-
mortal parkway found the going
great this morning. They had
one lane into Rosslyn circle
all to themselves and it worked
fine.
But all the other roads lead
ing into the circle we're so
jammed officials decided to tear
up the plans and start all over.
District Commissioner A. G..
yelling personally visited the
trouble area this morning and
called an on-the-spot meeting
of District, Arlington and park
officials and police when he saw
things going awry.
There was no tieup at all
on the parkway" Gen. yelling
said. But the backup was so
bad on Lee highway. Moore

the reserved lane opened up
Immediately to all traffic"
First Trial Period
This was the first morning
the special lane was reserved
for Washington-bound parkway
traffic in the hope of relieving
the jam on that artery.
"It was agreed today that
District, Arlington and Park
police will cooperate in po-
licing the circle and bridge to
make adjustments as conditions
warrant" Gen. yelling said,
There will be no permanent
reserved lane for parkway traf-
fic. but the police will be in

Efforts to end the steel strike

the union and the companies
waited for q Supreme Court

The court could rule at any
time on whether a Taft Hartley
Act injunction should send the

Wait For Courts Decision
Neither the steel companies
nor the United Steelworkers oi
America are in q mood to bar

Speculation admittedly
lacking any solid foundation
was weighted in favor of a rul-

and ordering the strikers back
to woI'I. Court observers con-
centrated on trying to guess
the decision would be
The union argued before the
court that the Injunction Is
unconstitutional. Even if the
back-to-work order is constitu-
tional, the union contended, II
should not apply in this case
because the steel strike does
not really imperil the national
health and safety.
Mr.. Finnegan probably will
call union and management
bargaining teams back into
session as soon as the court
decides the injunction issue. He
told both sides to be ready
to resume negotiations at any
time, but said no new bargain.

even though it is across the

District engineers are study

what should be done.
"The circle has not been
changed since streetcars left
it." Gen. Welling said. "Im-
provements and physical ad-
justments must be made. The
circle, meant for streetcars,
bulees unnecessarily into the
traffic pattern. Some turns are
too abrupt and must be
smoothed out"
New Sign Installed
Gen. yelling said one new
sign was being installed at the
circle, forbidding left turns to
cars coming up from the park
way.
Observers noted during the

suggested that more motorists
use this bridge to relieve the

Rev|on Knew Of Fix
Testifies
Hess Store
Aide Admits.
False Claim

A public relations man in
volved in the payment Of
$4,000 to get a department
store buyer on the $4,000
Question admitted today that
he falsely represented himself
as being from the district at
torney's Office" in talking with
the contestant last week.
Max Levine, in charge Of
publicity for the Hess Depart
ment Store Of Allentown, Pa.
made the admission before the
House subcommittee inveStigat-
ing the television quiz scandals.
Representative Devine, Re-
publican Of Ohio, brought up
the matter as the committee
sought to find out what hap
pened to the $4,000 paid out
in 1855 by Max Hess, owner Of
the store.
He said it was his under
standing that Mr.. Levine said
he was from the FBI" in tele-
phone calls last Friday to Ken
meth Hoffer and two other
persons.
Plugged" Store
Mr.. Hoffer. then a mems
wear buyer in the Hess store,
appeared briefly on the August
8, 1855, show Of the $4,000
Question ami got in two plugs"
for the store.
Mr.. Levine admitted misrep-
resenting himself in order to
talk by telephone with Mr.. Hof-
fer, but insisted he had said he
was from the district attorneys
Office and not the FBI.
He told Mr.. Hoffer, he said,
that he was Investigating the
$4,000 Question and asked him
questions about the $4,000
payment.
MY only desire was to try
to refresh my memory and
know just exactly what had
taken place." Mr.. Levine told
the congressional investigators.
Witness Warned
Congressman Devine, q
former FBI agent, told the wit
ness sternly II know the bureau
takes a very dim view of any,
one who impersonates an FBI
agent"
Mr.. Levine said he first said
he was from the district at
torney's Office in two prelirni-
nary calls seeking to locate Mr..
Hoffer in Reading, Pa, where
Mr.. Hoffer now lives.
Mr.. Levine said he was
unable to say to whom the
$4,000 was paid. David Gott-
lieb, a former Hess employe who
handled the payments, told the
committee last night that on
instructions from Mr.. Hess the
money was turned over to Elroy
Production Enterprises, Inc,
originators of the $4,000 show
Louis Cowan, who once headed
Cowan Productions. is now
president of CHS Television.
Mr.. Schwartz and Joseph
Gates. an early producer of the
show, asked and were granted
permission to give their testi-
mony in a closed session. Mr.
Gottlieb testified that he met
with them in New York and
was told that it would take
$4,000 to get Mr.. Hoffer on the
$4,000 Question.

store also received "plugs" ir

On Tax Boosts
City Heuds Adopt
Seven Proposals
Urged by Stuff
BY SAM EASTMAN
star stan writer

Proposals to raise seven Dis
trict taxes have been indorsed
by the District Commissioners,
President Robert E. McLaugh-
lin disclosed today.
All but one Of the recon-
mended tax increases. rise in
the real estate rate, would re-
quire congressional approval.
The seven-point tax program
was recommended by the Com
missioners' staff two months
ago in a proposed $248.2 mil
lion budget for the fiscal year
beginning next July /.
The suggested tax increases
were '1eft untouched" by the
Commissioners in their recent
closed conferences on the
budget, Commissioner Nc
Laughlin said.
Sales Tax Plan Skipped
Mr.. McLaughlin's statement
apparently rules out a proposal
by the Commissioners Citizens
Advisory Council for an in
crease in the sales tax from
2 to 3 per cent.
The council yesterday recon-
mended this move as q sub
stitute for the seven-pofnt tax
program. The advisory group
suggested a sales tax hike on
all purchases except food. The
sales tax on carry-out food
purchases is / per cent.
Mr.. Mclaughlin opposed the
sales tax boost as proposed be-
cause he said this would drive
purchasers into Virginia where
there is no sales tax.
In answer to a question, Mr..
Mclaughlin said that the
Commissioners decision tech
nically was a tentative one,
but that he did not expect any
revisions to be made. The Dis
trict's proposed spending and
revenue programs will be sub
mitted to the Federal Bureau
OF the Budget in about 10 days.
Details of Package
Under the Commissioners
action, the real estate rate will
be Increased from $3.50 to $3.50
per 500 Of assessed value and
Congress will be asked to adopt
these other tax hikes:
l. A personal income tax in
crease through reduction of the
minimum graduated tax bracket
from $4,000 to $4,000.
2. A cigarette tax rise from
2 cents to 8 cents a package.
8. The removal Of exemp-
tions from the unincorporated
business franchise levy. This
move would take in self-em-
ployed professional persons and
others offering personal services
along with some who are now
escaping a rental income levy
4. An increase in the whole.
sale liquor tax from SIPS to
$l.50 a gallon.
5. Double the present $1.5O
a barrel wholesale tax on beer.
s. Extend the 2 per cent sales
tax to local telephone service.
All Of the recommended tar
increases would be effective
next July l except for the
personal income and unin-
corporated business 1evies
which would go into effect
January !. 1861.
The tax increases would bring
in about $12.7 million annually
after ~an initial $8.3 million
during the next fiscal year.
The Commissioners proposed
spending figure has not beer
made public. It is expected tc
total about 1884 million.
