By the Associated Press | LOS ANGELES, January 20.—Lita | Grey Chaplin looked forward to a pa day today as her attorneys prepared to go into court to collect from Charlie Chaplin temporary alimony awarded in divorce suit against the wealth comedian, who, it was disclosed, ¥ almost $1,000,000 in cold cash. Recelvers of the Chaplin fortune, appointed at the wife’s instance, yes- terday reported an examination of bank books found in the studio safes showed cash balances for Chaplin and his corporations totaling almost $1,000,000 scavtered through banks in Hollywood, Los Angeles, New York, Engiand and Frane Or this amount $74,547 is actor's personal accounts, approx: imately $17,000 of which is in Cali fornia banks and in the jurisdiction of the courts. This is sufficient to cover the present sums due Mrs Chaplin. Her attorneys, however, de sire that payment of future alimony installments be assured, and it is upon this issue that corporation funds may be attacked. + Report on Other In addition to $913 deposits of Chaplin an tio he receivers rep: 65, all readily convertible and ex- clusive of real estate. The Charlie Chaplin Film Co, showed a bank bal ance of $540 the Regent Iilm Co., Inc., $292,665, and the Chaplin Stu- dios, Inc., $5,687. On the basis of the receivers’ report, Superior Judge Walter P. Guerin ordered the Chaplin Studios, Inc., to post surety bond of $1,000,000 to pro- tect Mrs. Chaplin’s interests pending an appeal from the receivership. New York offices of the Chaplin in terests will decide whether the bond will be forthcoming. In the meantime the studio re- mained under the control of the re- ceivership. On the heels of yesterday’s court developments came the announcement by Federal authorities that they would require Chaplin to file a bond of approximately $1,000,000 within 10 days as the result of the Govern- ment’s income tax liens, which total $1,073,721. United States After Back Taxes. The Government has filed the claims in an effort to collect on the screen star's income over a period of four or five years. The bill which Mrs. Chaplin’s at- torneys have made out for the re- ceivers calls for the payment of two monthly temporary alimony _install- ments of $4,000 each, an’additional $4,000 for lawyers’ fees, $2,150 for bond premiums and an item of $250 for miscellaneous legal expenses. Lyndol K. Young, representing the comedian’s wife, has declared that in the event the alimony payments were not made he would seek the arrest of Chaplin for contempt of court whenever he comes within jurisdiction of the California courts. This drastic step cannot be taken un- less Chaplin, who is now in New York, returns to this State and con- tinues in default of the alimony pay- ments, in the sets. in bank corpora- assets of CIVIL SERVICE TESTS. Vacancies as Stationary Firemen Announced. The Civil Service Commission today announced open competitive examina- tions for stationary fireman (low-pres- sure plant) and stationary fireman (high-pressure plant), to fill vacancies in_the departmental service here. The entrance salaiies are $1,020 and $1,140 a year, respectively. A proba: tionary period of six months is re- quired. Advancement after that de- pends upon individual efficiency, in- creased usefulness and the occurrence of vacancies in higher positions. Applicants must have reached their '| twentieth but not their fiftieth birth- day on the date of the examination. Full information and application blanks may be obtained from the office of the United States Civil Service Commission, 1724 F street. Income Tax Problems Simplified for All No. 4. Anomalous as it may seem, a person may be married and yet single for the purposes of the incometax law. To be allowed an exemption of $3,500, a married couple must have “lived to- gether,” in the eyes of the law, for the entire taxable year. However, in the absence of continuous residence to- gether, the question of whether man and wife are living together depends upon the character of the separation. If, occasionally, the husband is away on business, or if, for any necessary reason, a temporary separation exist, the full exemption is allowed. The presence of a wife at a sanitarium or her unavoidable absence because of ill- health does not change their status, and the full exemption is allowed the husband. But when the husband de- liberately and continuously makes his home at one place and the wife at an- other, they are ‘classed as single per- sons, and each is allowed an exemp- tion 'of $1,500 only. In the absence of continuous actual esidence together, whether a person with dependent relatives is the head of a family, and therefore entitled to an exemption of $3,500, also depends upon the character of the separation. If & father is away on business, or a child_or other dependent away at school or on & visit, the common home being maintained, the exemption ap- plies. If a parent is obliged to mai tain his dependent children in a board- ing house, while he lives elsewhere, the exemption may still apply. But if benefactor and dependent needles and continuously live apart, the status of the head of a family does not exist, irrespective of the support given.

THE EVEN JOHNSON REITERATES STAND Higbway Delegates By a Staff Correspondent of The Star LURAY, Va., January 20.—Their pledges to construct a great memorial highway to Gen. Robert 1. Lee dedi- cated anew on the day of his birth in a two-day meeting held in the Valley of Virginia, where many of his mili tary triumphs were accomplished, delegates to the Lee Highway Asso- ciation’s annual convention were on their way home today with a pro- gram before them that will sweep the Lee highway further forward in its transcontinental concept from Maine through Washington to the Pacific Coast. They left for their homes pledged {to renew their efforts to rush to com- pletion one of the last remaining links in the road, the 21-mile gap through the proposed Shenandoah National Park region near Thorntons Gap, Va., nd to persist in their determination o carry the Lee boulevard through Arlington County, according to the plans laid down by Army enginees working in co-operation with the a ciation Johnson Reiterates Stand. In his first public utterance since last Spring, when the straight-to-the- Arlington-Bridge proposal caused a rift in the ranks of those interested in the Arlington County boulevard de- velopment, Dr. 1. Johnson of Washington, managing director of the association, late yesterday reiterated his opposition to any proposal that will cauise the road to deviate from the route laid down by the engineers. He sald there has not been and is not today any proposal except that of Lee boulevard for a roadway more than 80 feet wide connecting Washington with the Valley of Virginia. Drawing a picture of the valley as & suburb of Washington when the 200- foot roadway becomes a reality, Dr. Johnson said the only possible Cchance to secure such a roadway 1s in the proposed location. Earlier in the day W. S. Hoge, jr., explained that the route will go immediately north of Fort Myer from the west end of the Arlington Bridge, run south of and avoid Clarendon. and Ballston and, under present plans, tie in with the present roadway to Fairfax beyond Falls Church. “While there may be and probably will be two roadways to Warrenton, the Lee Boulevard should properly be the only one of 200-feet width through the Shenandoah Park to New Market,” Dr. Johnson said. “If Virginia wants this road she will ap- prove our plans. If Virginia decides it wants a boulevard of not more than 80 feet in width that is what the State Highway Commission will ap- prove. Urges Unity in Work. “There is no more important lo- cal road to be built than the road through Clarendon to Falls Church. But that ig a county road. Let us all stand together and work together whether we come from the valley of Virginia, from Washington or from Arlington County. What is good for one section is good for all, and divid- ed we cannot win. “We have devoted years of effort to secure a 200-foot boulevard between Washington and New Market as a part of the plan of regional develop- ment for Washington. We have had delays in Arlington County, but I knew that parking space in Claren- don and Ballston is more valuable to the merchants and residents of those places than the occaslonal nickel, which through travelers on a boulevard will leave there. I also knew the engineers favored a road- way which would avoid the built-up territory and take the boulevard through the more beautiful country away from the towns. These were the major reasons, together with those of ground configuration, Which prompted us to locate Lee Boulevard where it is over the objections of the straight-to-the-bridge advocates, So on this basis we have selected and se- cured a 200-foot right of way 85 per cent. complete from Washington to Warrenton.

When we get it all we will turn to Virginia and say ‘Here it is, go ahead and build it; we'll help you.' " Dr. Johnson said the Highway is an integral part United States arterial highway incomparable in scenic beauty, without a peer in historical importance and assoclations, and traversing some of the richest undeveloped country in the Nation. “It is destined to become the great- est road in the world,” he said Pleads for Clean-up. A plea_that Arlington County up the Virginia approaches to V ington, which he characterized as di graceful, was made by E. O. Fippin, chairman of the Virginia Conservation Commission. Mr. Fippin lives in Arlington County, near Jewell, Va. ceful ap- entire Lee of the stem, clean h- irginia presénts o disgr to Washington,” he said. “There is mo other such important gateway to the Natlon's Capital as that through Arlington County. It is in bad condition. It needs cleaning up. That it ig not more presentable not the fault of any one. It is a condition that has grown up. unfortunate that Arlington Coun- should have been ceded back to Virginia, for it is in sentiment and spirit today, and should be in reality, an integral part of the District of “olumbla. We must have a fitting ap- proach to the Arlington Memorial Bridge, and it is up to the county to get it. The Arlington County condi- tion is one that needs a firm hand and arstrong will to clean it up.” Mr. Fippin predicted that the origi- 00,000 which it was estimated would buy the land for the Shenandoah National Park must now be expanded to.$3,000,000 and possibly a million or two more. “We cannot know just how much it will cost until we have completed our survey and appraisal,” he said. Greater Cost Foreseen. “But we know it will cost more than the original estimate. My guess is that it will cost about $4,000,000, but when we get it all in fee we can go to the Congress of the United States and tell them that here we have 385,000 acres of the finest recreation park in the world, unparalleled in scenic beauty, rich in historical associations and within a day’s ride of 40,000,000 people in the heart of America.” Maj. Carey H. Brown, chairman of the planning committee of the Na- tional Capital Park and Planning Commission, told the final meeting last night that there is no reason un- der the laws governing the commis- sion why its jurisdiction in so far as highways are concerned should not extend to the Shenandoah National He said the regional planning activities of the commission are not circumscribed as to distance from ‘Washington and that the commission may extend its activities outside the 20-mile limit usually believed to be the regional area of Washington and take proach Dental Office for Sale Office formerly conducted by the late Dr. 7.

Brown said, “on one side of the Capi- tal City the waters of Chesapeake Bay, on the other side the mountains of the Blue Ridge and the first national park in the Appalachians. We want the valley of Virginia to be connected with the best possible roadway to Washington.” Holds Roads Pay for Selves. Maj. Brown said it is axiomatic that roadways, no matter how expensive soon pay for themselves by apprecia: tion of real estate values near them and predicted that this would occur along the route of the Lee houlevard through Virginia. A resolution was adopted' at the closing session of the convention last night ca the State Highway Commission to complete the paving of the highway from Washington to Thorntons Gap in the proposed na tional park. Earlier in the day Dr. Johnson de clared that the first unit of the 200 foot roadway was to be started within 30 days at Newmarket, Va. W. G. Galliher described the close co-operation of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission in the regional development of Washington with the authorities of Maryland and Virginia. He said the development about Washington must come as the result of a general plan to be out- lined and carried through as a proj ect and not in small sections.
