WILMETTE, ILL.--One of the

Two housebreaking suspects
were captured last night three
minutes after an 18-year- old
boy reported to Fairfax police
that burglars had broken into
his home and taken a gun away
from him when he tried to
stop them.
Police 1t. David Eike said
the scene of the housebreaxing
was the home Of Mr.. and Mrs.
William H, Steuart, 5708 Four
teenth street, Bailey's Cross
roads.
1t. Eike said the Steuarts
were attending a dance but
that their nephew, Robert T.

bedroom when he heard noises.
Picking up a 80 caliber auto
matte pistol, he went down to
investigate.
Young Newberry told police
he confronted the men, that
a fight ensued and that one of
them wrestled the gun away
from him.
Young Newberry fled to the
basement and used a telephone
there to call police. County
Police headquarters logged the
call at 1858 pm. Detective
James Wilt, who was in the
area, was sent to investigate.
1t. Eike said Detective Wilt

Withholding
Tax Pushed
By Winston

Arlington Delegate William
l.. Winston has asked the Vir-
ginia Tax Department toIdraft
a law for a withholding tax on
incomes.
Based on an anticipated reve-
nue. Of $75.1 million from this
source during the current fiscal
year, Mr.. Winston estimated a
withholding levy would produce
from $3.5 million to sos mil
lion more annually.
Mr.. Winston is the only men,
Der Of a House Finance subcom-
mittee which studied such a law
last year. who expects to return
to the Legislature next January.
A withholding tax bill, offered
by Delegate James M. Thomson
of Alexandria was referred to
the subcommittee composed of
Mr.. Winston, the late Robert
Whitehead and P. E. Leadbetter
of Hopewell, now a Judge.
Mr.. Winston, who will seek
denomination in the July IL
Democratic primary, said he
will sponsor withholding tax
legislation in 1862 unless 1t
should appear with certainty
that such a system could not be
worked into Virginia's tax
structure"
Virginia is unique among the
States. Mr.. Winston said, with
its decentralized tax collection
system. State taxes are assessed
and collected in Virginia by
,treaSurers and revenue commits
sionerS in the counties and
cities.
In States such as Maryland,
where income taxes are paid to
a central collection office, a
withholding levy is much easier
to administer, Mr.. Winston said.

force the levying of taxes to
carry out its orders"
Earlier, Collins Denny, jr.,
counsel for the school board
and j. Seegar Gravitt, attorney
for the supervisors, opposed the
Negroes move to amend their
complaint.
Mr.. Denny contended the
Negroes we're attempting to
challenge the use of public
money for tuition grants in
private schools as a violation
of the State constitution. He
also said they cited the State
constitution to show the duty
Of Prince Edward County to
maintain a public school syS-
item.
Both OF these issues, Mr.,
Denny argued, should be re-
solved in the Virginia Supreme
Court of Appeals.
Without ruling on the ques-
ton of jurisdiction, Judge
Lewis seemed inclined to agree
with this viewpoint.
Hasn't it always been man
datory that, before the Fed
eral Government proceeds to
interpret, a State constitution
al issue should be ruled upon
by the State?" Judge Lewis
asked.
The judge, however, granted
the Negroes motion to amend
their complaint and to add
Prince Edward County Treas
urer j. w. Wilson. jr., as a de-
fendant because that official
handles the tax credits which
are being challenged.
Judge Lewis set May 8 as
the date for hearing evidence
in the case, indicating that he
would rule at an early date on
individual amendments offered
by the Negroes.
