Two Women Face
Charges of Rent
EmbezzIement

Two women charged with
embezzling rental receipts faced
arraignment Monday and police
reported the firm making the
complaint may have lost $780,
900 in the last two years.
Charged specifically with en-
bezzling $3.50 each were Miss
Margaret L. Nauert, 26, of the
200 block of Massachusetts
avenue NV, and Miss Eileen
L. Myers, %, of Falls Church,
Va.
The shortage was reported by
Jess Fisher & Co., Inc, a prop
erty management firm at 1912
K street NV. Both women
were Office workers for the firm
Check and Fraud Squad 1t.
Robert S. Eichelberger said the
firm first discovered a $4,000
shortage when an audit of the
books was made last March.
He said Miss Nauert was a
bookkeeper and Miss Myers was
an Office clerk.
1t took auditors and a spe-
cial investigator several months
to discover how the shortage
was caused, 1t. Eichelberger,
said, and in the meantime addi-
tional sums were lost.

CoIemuns'
Mental Test
Order Upheld

The United States Court of
Appeals late yesterday refused
to set aside a District Court
order calling for mental ex-
aminations for two brothers
accused in the Staying of one
policeman and wounding an
other while fleeing from the
scene of a robbery on jan
uary Z.
District Court Judge Joseph
C. McGarraghy earlier yester-
day ordered a mental examina-
ton of William C. Coleman, 25,
and Ray S. Coleman, 90. The
order was on a Government
motion argued by Principal AS
sistant United. States Attorney
Edward P. Troxell.
Two psychiatrists authorized
to make the examinations are
DR.. William G. Cushard and
DR.. David Owens. both of st.
Elizabeths Hospital.
The case of the Colemans
already has been presented to
a District grand jury. A SpokeS-
man for the United States at
torney's Office said the grand
jury probably will act in a
week or so.
William Coleman is accused
OF wrestling Police Dept. Donald
Brereton's pistol away from
him and fatally wounding him.
Pvt. Clyde r. Winters also was
wounded. The two policemen
had been staked out in the back
OF a liquor store in the 500
block of Florida avenue NV.
when the owner was ROBBED.
The two policemen chased the
bandits into a nearby alley
where the shooting occurred.
Attorney Thomas C. Bell,
representing William Coleman,
argued against the motion for
mental examinations, contend
ing that the court could order
such an examination only
through its own observation or
through evidence of unsound-
ness of mind. He appealed
Judge McGarraghy's order for
the mental examination of Will
liam. A hearing then was held
In the appellate court, which
refused to vacate the order.

D. 6. Transit
Profit Seen
Fair Now

An economist testified yester-
day that the D. C. Transit SyS-
tenn can earn fair profit with
the present 20-cent fare and no
increase should be allowed.
Ezekiel Limmer, a witness for
the Friendship Heights Citizens
Association, told the Public
Utilities Commission the COM
pany can expect a net operating
income of nearly $652,000 in
1860 at present rates. 1t would
provide, he said, a reasonable
return on investment.
His testimony conficted with
that of J. William Falk. chief
accountant for the PUG, who
had stated earlier that an ex-
Ipected!net operating income of
$660.000 for 1860 cannot be con-
sidered a fair rate of return.
His proposal-that cash fares
be increased to Is cents and
that tokens be sold at five for
$1-would result in a net oper-
ating income of about S1,143,-
600 in 1860, Mr.. Falk said.
Hearings on the scent fare
increase request by D. C. Tran
sit System will resume Thurs
day with the company be-
ginning its cross-examination
of transit rider witnesses op-
posed to the application.
The P. U. c. yesterday heard
other witnesses, representing
citizen groups and Federal en-
ploye unions, argue that the
fare rise was not justified.
Their testimony included sug-
geStions that the weekly transit
rider pass be returned, that
buses be given highway priority,
and that the franchise require
ment for conversion of the re-
naming four streetcar lines by
August 1868 be eliminated.
The company is requesting
a scent increase in the present
20-cent fare during rush hours
until November and then a 25-
cent fare during all hours.

Foster Care
Seen Affected

Plans for More
Relief Agencies
Are Also Involved

A cut of S508,O00 in the Dis
trict's Welfare Departments re-
quest for $19, ,508,000 for fiscal
1861 would appear to eliminate
money for increased board rates
for foster care and reduce the
amount Of money sought for
anticipated new relief agencies.
At the same time, the House
Appropriations Committee al
lowed all but five of the 129
new positions requested. The
department sought a total of
$2,o2S. 900.
District Public Welfare Direc-
tor Gerald M. Shea praised the
Legislators for their thought
full" and cautious" work.
The increased staff, he said,
shows really quite a substan-
tial recognition of what our
basic program is-service. With
more staff we can do more
in the area Of prevention"
| Increase "Vital"
He said he considered the
requested increase in the rate
tof foster home care from $50
to $50 a month vital" adding
that a higher board rate would
be a factor in future recruit
ment of foster homes. Mr.. Shea
also noted that the cut would
affect a proposed increase in
the rate the department pays
private institutions housing de-
pendent children.
Mr.. Shea's request for $685.
453 for the child welfare divi-
sion, which handles the foster
home program. was cut by
S29S.711.
Thought Too High
Legislators indicated during
the subcommittee hearings
they thought the Welfare De-
partment's estimates of future
increases in relief recipients
and in the number of children
helped by the child welfare
division were too high. Relief
rolls rose less dramatically in
1859 than in 1858.
The committee cut $179,894
out of the 1894 .894 additional
money sought for public as
sistance. OF this amount, $780,
900 was for grants alone.
The committee also dropped
100000 from the departments
request for S350,000 for plan
money to replace the dormi-
tories at D. c. Village, the
home for the aged.
The legislators suggested
that plans for 10 one-story
units connected to a centra,
all-purpose building were toe
idealistic. The total project
would cost $5,650,000.

Public Hearing Fails
To End Sales Tax Rift

RICHMOND, Feb. 6 (AP).-
The showpiece hearing on a
State sales tax failed to lift the
uncertainty today over the fate
of the Almond administrations s
tax program in the Virginia
General Assembly.
The marathon public hearing
ground to a halt shortly before
ll:3O o'clock last night and
Senate Finance Chairman ]. D.
Hagood said action by his COM
mittee would not be taken be-
fore Tuesday.
Scores of speakers gave the
Senate Finance Committee their
views as to way the sales tax
should or not be enacted during
the more than seven hours the
hearing ran.
The committee, regarded as
the toughest barrier to any
sales tax legislation at this
session of the assembly, called
the hearing over the protests
OF Senate patrons of Gov. AL
mond'S original 3 per cent sales
tax bill. The same measure
is before the House Finance
Committee, which also has an
alternate 2 per cent bill intro
duced Thursday by Delegate
Charles K. Hutchens of New
port News, finance chairman.
Heard Story Before
In a statement issued after
the hearing, Senator Harry F.
Byrd, jr., who has opposed the
sales tax proposal, said that
during his IL years in the
Senate he has heard almost
exactly the same story" when
the State budget is up for
consideration: That more
and more spending was essen
tial, else Virginia would de-
teriorate."
Yet Virginia has progressed
nicely during the past IL years
and, I believe, will continue
to progress nicely during the
next IL years"
The Almond administration
has introduced a standby 2 per
cent sales tax bill in case the
3 per cent measure dies in the
hostile Senate Finance Com
mittee.
