- THLNAN TRBUT PADBY HONDREDS Maryland Representative Is, Given Testimonial Dinner by Many Admirers. What is generally regarded as a “Zfhiman boom for the governorship of Maryland” was launched last night when Capt. Prank L. Hewitt, his close friend and political admirer, acting as toastmaster at the testimonial dinner ven in honor of Representative Fred fi Zihlman, introduced the chairman of the House District committee as the “next Governor of Maryland.” More than 500 men and women. the majority of them residents of Mont- gomery County, although there were Gelegations present from Allegany and Washington Counties, gathered in the Silver Spring Armory to acclaim_the boom and welcome Representative Zihl- n into thbir midst m‘Amnng the distinguished guests who responded to the invitation of the toast- master were Secretary of Labor J:lmes; vis, Representative Walter Newton gi ?Jainnzsuti Tecently appointed secre- tary to President Hoover; Paul Sleman of Chevy Chase, chairman of the State Republican ~central committee _from Moritgomery County; Mayor Ben Davis | of /Takoma Park, William F.

Secretary Davis emphasized _ the progress which Silver Spring and Mont- gomery Counties have made during the past 10 years, declaring that ‘Washing- ton City is growing rapidly and ‘that it must necessarily extend out into the Metropolitan area of Montgomery County. The Secretary also expressed his appreciation of the aid and co- operation obtained from Representa- tive Zihiman on the labor committee. Zihlman Thanks Friends. “What little success I may have at- tained in public life,” said Representa- tive Zihlman, after thanking the pre- ceding speakers for their introductory remarks, “is entirely’ due to the support | of my loyal friends.” “It has been my privilege to repre- et the sixth district in Congress la years, when my present term is ended,’ @deglared Mr. Zihlman, “and I. have formd ample satisfaction in my asso- ciations arising from the duties of office that the future ¢an never take &way.” Referring to the accusation ofttimes hurled at him by those with whom he differed politically that his time was too rhuch takén up with little m\ng. Representative Zihiman said that he vegarded the implied thrust as an honor. A bit of humor was interjected in the Representative's remarks when he stated, in appreciation of the honor accorded him, that “if I had the oppor- tunity of doing so I would send a post- card to every one present at this dinner tonight.” Representative Zihlman passed no comment upon the launching of his gubernatorial boom, but he exp: the sentiment that his greatest happl- ness was derived from looking after the interests and affairs of his constituents as well as in serving the United States as a whole. 1 duets ln:‘ solos ::‘\;e rendered, & tion, was given an e Silver sm?: lcmtr‘lzmmlw_mnd played & variety of selections. o Miss Nirginia Byrry, versatile” ehild, dancer and singer, afforded musical en- tainment, as did Miss Florence Yocum, O’Connor, Fred East-and others.

PASSAGE OF BILL Chamber of Commerce/ Moves to Press Measures at Annapolis. Special Dispatch to The Star. HYATTSVILLE, Md, March 26— Though the opinion was expressed that there was little chance of the passage by the Legislature of cither the bill that would take control of the county police force from the sheriff and put it under the county commissioners or the bill which would permit the county treasur- er to succeed himself, the Chamber of Commerce of Hyattsville last night adopted a resolution to write each mem- ber of the county’s delegation in the Legislature asking them to state in writing their reasons, if any, for not seeing to the passage of these bills, which it was asserted, have the indorse ment of many county organizations and prominent citizens. It also was decided that a delegation made up of members of the chamber and others, would wait upon_the county delegation at Annap- olis, Thursday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, the rooms of the judiciary committee of the Senate, to urge the passage of the bills. Copies Sent to Delegation. Passage of the resolution, coples of which were sent each member of the county's delegation this morning, - fol- lowed a re}mrt by S. Marvin Peach, chairman of the chamber's legislative committee, in which he stated that the police bill so far as he had been able to learn, had not yet been introduced, and that, though the county treasurer's bill had been introduced, it was by no means certain that it would be passed. Members of the chamber expressed indignation at what appeared to be in- difference on the part of the county’s delegation with respect to the proposed measures which have widespread in- dorsement. It was announced by C. L. Alello on behalf of the chamber’s public utilities aommittee that progress was being made in preparation of data in connection with the fight against the rates of the Washington Surburban Gas Co. He sald that information was now in the hands of the committee which afforded a food working basis for pushing the complaint to a culmination which he believed would prove satisfactory to the cham- T, It was decided to appoint a commit- tee to go to Baltimore behalf of the application of the Washington Motor Coach Co. to be permitted by the Mary- land Public rvice Commission to make stops between Laurel and the District, line for the benefit of 3 gers bound to or from Baltimore. ‘The date of the hearing before the com- mission "has not been set.

[TALIAN DEALERS 0 AID ART BUYING Association Acts to Smooth Way for Foreigners Trying to Add Treasures. By the Associated Press. ROME, MARCH 26.—American are dealers, buyers for museums and pri- vate collectors will find things made a great deal easier for them in this hot- bed of art as a result of developments at the first National Convention of Italian Dealers in Antiquities and Art. In a three-day session here the culties in its own organization, in the buying and selling of Italy’s precious antiquities, and paved the way for legislation which will facilitate the puchase of ancient works of art in Italy by American dealers. Government Now Rules Sternly. As the law stands there are a number of works which foreign buyers are not permitted to acquire. On other pleces of art there is a tax of 20 per cent of the value declared upon it by the buyer. And it the buyer declares a small value in order to lower this tax, the gov- ernment has the option of buying the work at the figure thus declared. The National Assoclation of An- tiquity Dealers will seek to put through a law for definite listing of the objets d'art_ which the government will not permit to be exported. Simultaneously it will strive for a lowering of export duties on all other works of art. Brokers to Watch Sales. The association also voted for the nomination of a committee to study “the defense and valuation of the artistic and intellectual patrimony of Italy; and the penetration of Italy by foreign merchants.” As a result of the convention the association, which embraces practically all the large art dealers, brokers and collectors in Italy, will in future exer- cise & close surveilance on private sales of art through the medium of so-called private galleries. These, it is asserted, hide their speculative activities under the guise of collecting only for them- selves, and thus evade the government taxes and laws. This surveillance should make it more difficult for fraudulent dealers to mulct American collectors. A group of Italians now awaits trial for having sold {alse works of art to several American museums.

One item was eliminated from the levy entirely, as it is now self-support- ing. That is Police Court, which was apportioned $5,000 in the 1928 levy. Two items were added—supervisors of elec- tion, $2,000, and local assessor, $3,000. Increases Made.
