v PAYMENT OF FINES - CLAIMED INVALID Mount Rainier Officials Pro- test Giving Half Court Re- ceipts to Commissioners. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. MOUNT RAINIER, Md., June 28.— Citing an act of the 1929 Legislature, Corporation Counsel Bird H. Dolby to- day wrote the Prince Georges County commissioners protesting on behalf of the mayor and council an order direct- ing the justices of peace in Prince Georges County to pay the commission- ers one-half of all fines collected for violations of town ordinances. Dolby contends that the 1929 Legis~ lature repealed and re-enacted the Po- lice Court law in such a way as to re- Yerse the provisions of an act passed in 1927, under which the commissioners ‘were authorized to receive one-half the fines in town cases. Backs Repeal 'Contention. State Senator Lansdale G. Sasscer agrees with Dolby that the 1929 law was intended to repeal that feature of the 1927 act, which is cited by the county commissioners in a letter sent all mag- istrates last week. Sasscer declares the provision in the 1927 act that half the town fines be turned over to the commissioners aroused opposition of some of the towns, and at the request of the various town governments a bill was introduced re- pealing that feature. The 1929 law says that fines, penalties and forfeitures as contained in any ordinance in any in- corporated town in Prince Georges County are exempt from the usual proc- ess of being sent to the commissioners. A short time ago the commissioners passed an order requesting a Hyatts- ville justice of peace to turn over to the county commissioners half the fines in town cases, which he had in hi Ppossession at the time. . Payment Already Made. A form letter quoting this order and calling attention to the 1927 act was then sent all of the justice s of peace in the county. As a result one of them, Judge Shipley. has sent the commis- sioners a check for half the fines col- lected for violations of the ordinances of the town of Berwyn Heights. This check is being held while the com- missioners investigate the point raised by _the Mount Rainier authorities. It was said at the office of the com- Missioners today that the matter would probably be referred to the board's counsel, as the commissioners believe they should go into the matter thor- oughly before making a final decision. One of the factors which is said to have led the commissioners to attempt to collect the fines is a ruling which they were informed was given one of the magistrates from the State attorney neral. This ruling is reported as ving stated that half the town fines must be sent to the commissioners. The amount of money involved in the controversy is comparatively small, but mavs an appreciable part in each town's udget.

BACK STATE TAXES REFUSED COUNTIES Virginia Attorney General Rules Act of Last Legis- lature Unconstitutional. BY LESTER N. INSKEEP, Staff Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT HOUSE, Va., June 28.—Local authori- ties were informed today that they | would not be permitted to retain for the local schools the State land and intangible personal property delinquent taxes, amounting to about $25,000, as provided in a bill passed at the last session of the General Assembly. At- torney General John R. Saunders has ruled that the act is unconstitutional. The act provided that the counties, | cities and towns of the State might re- tain for their own use any State taxes | that became delinquent prior to the | segregation act of 1926. The Ilatter measure abolished State taxation on | real estate, separating the collection and handling of State and local taxes. | At the time this legisiation went into effect there were many thousands of dollars of uncollected taxes due the State and while some of this has been collected and turned into the State treasury since that time there still re- mains a large sum to be collected. Schools Would Benefit. In Arlington County this probably would have amounted to $25,000, which, under the terms of the act, could have been collected by the county treasurer and the collector of delinquent taxes and turned over to the school board. State and county taxes delinquent prior to 1926 amount to approximately $500,- 000, 5 per cent of which represents the State share. Introduction of the act permitting re- tention of the taxes Iollowed confer- ences of legislators at which it was de- cided that since the State had, for the first time In its history, a large sur- plus in the State treasury it was not in need of this money in event of its collection and that the local jurisdic- tions could make better use of it. A further thought was that the local au- thorities would try harder to collect back taxes if they knew that they could retain the entire amount instead of A. H. Stewart of Guelph, Ontario.

Fritsch, pro- fessor of English Bible at Muhlenberg College, and Dr. Henry Ostrom of the extension department staff at Moody All sessions will be held in Methodist gnhkcopll auditorium at Mountain Lake ark. MARYLAND MENTAL PATIENTS RECOVER More Than Half Admitted to State Hospitals in Six Months Are Discharged. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, June 28.—More than half the patients admitted to the State hospitals for mental diseases during a six-month period last year have re- turned to their communities, according to a report by Dr. George H. Preston, hygiene commissioner. ‘There were 356 patients admitted and 185 of these later d, he said “This report is interesting,” Dr. Pres- ton said, “because of the prevalent misconception as to the fate of persons who enter such institutions.” The average age of the State Hospital inmates is about 45, according to Dr Preston. There is at present no waiting list for either white or colored patients and the institutions are operating without overcrowding, Dr. Preston said, but he believes additional beds will be needed before June, 1932. LINDBERGH CLUB ELECTS OFFICERS IN MT. RAINIER Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. MOUNT RAINIER, Md., June 28— The Charles A.

Attorney General Rules. in his opinion as to the constitu- tionality of the act, Col. Saunders, says: “I have read this act with care and am of the opinion that it is in conflict with section 186 of the constitution and, therefore, invalid. “Section 186 of the constitution pro- vides that all taxes of the Stats shall be collected by its proper officers and paid into the State treasury. No money shall be paid out of the State treasury except in pursuance of appropriations made by law * * “Chapter 91 of the acts of 1930 does not require the delinquent State taxes on real and tangible personal prop- erty to be paid into the State treas- ury, but provides that they shall be paid into the local treasury in viola- tion of section 186 of the constitution. Mr. Bazile, my former assistant, who ‘was in charge of the division of legisla- tive drafting during the session of 1930, informs me that h: advised the patron of the bill, which became chapter 91 of the acts of 1930, that the same was unconstitutional. In this opinion I fully concur.” Church to Present Comedy.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md., June 28.— Realization that the amount of work in Prince Georges County Circuit Court has grown to such an extent within the last few years that one judge cannot adegautely handle it, many prominent attorneys and political leaders of the county are giving serious thought to the advisability of seeking a constitutional amendment that would create another judgeship. The proposal, which is generally favored by the ‘county bar, is still in the formative stages, but is expected to be presented at coming meetings of sev- eral county-wide organizations for dis- cussion and possible indorsement. Large Docket. It is pointed out that Prince Georges | County has many times as many Cir- | cuit Court cases in a year as all the other Southern Maryland counties in the circuit combined. During the year 1929, for example, there were 340 equity cases docketed in Prince Georges, as compared with less than 50 in Charles County, 25 in Calvert County and ap- proximately the samé number in St. Marys County. In 1928 there were 365 eqiuty cases filed here, an average of one a day throughout the year. All of these cases are given the attention of the court. Although some may require only an examination of the papers, many others necessitate several days of open court hearings, examination of briefs and arguing of motions. Municipal Cases Numerous. ‘These include divorce cases and mu- nicipal cases. The later were fairly numerous in 1929, and required careful consideration, involving as they did the constitutionality of town ordinances. ‘While the equity cases were numerous enough to keep one judge occupied, in the opinion of the county lawyers, there were also a large number of law and criminal cases requiring the attention of the Circuit Court. A study of the 1929 dockets shows that there were 407 appearances en- tered during the four court terms. During the April and October jury terms the docket shows 112 criminal trials, 96 crimina! appeals, 44 civil ap- peals and 240 civil trials. In addition, 16 petitions and 81 40-day judgments were docketed during the year. This makes a total of 1,336 cases given court attention during 1929. ‘Would Divide Work. ‘The lawyers of the county say that this is far too much for one judge to be expected to handle. They regard Judge Joseph C. Mattingly as excep- tionally careful, conscientious and com- petent, but believe it humanly impos- sible for him to keep abreast of the work. If a second judge were authorized, one of the judges would probably handle equity cases and the other law cases for a period of six months out of each year as is done in other counties which have two judges. . The same situation now existing in Prince Georges County faced Baltimore County some years ago and resplted in the authorization of additional jurists. A constitutional amendment providing for an additional judge in Prince County could not be obtained July 10, at 8 o'clock. before 1932, the lawyers say.

N¢ DRAUCHTER NAMED DELEGATE FOR L. 3. To. Attend Three Big Plant Meetings Abroad—U. of M. Enroliment Starts. Special Dispatch to The Star. COLLEGE PARK, Md., June 28.— Dr. E. C. Auchter, advisory head of the department of horticulture of the Uni- versity of Maryland and principal hor- ticulturist in charge of the United States Department of Agriculture, has been appointed official representative of this country at three international plant congresses in Europe during the Summer. . His first. mecting will be the Inter- national Congress on Subtropical Agri- culture at Antwerp, Belgium, late in July. Then he will go to London where he will attend the International Horti- cultural Congress from August 7 to 15 and where he will present a paper, by request, entitled, “American _Experi- ments in the Propogation of Decidous :mn Plants by Stem and Root Cut- ng.” z Dr. Auchter also will be in atténdance at the International Botonical Cop- gress at Cambridge, England, from Au- gust 16 to 23. Dr. Auchter alto has been appointed by the United States Government as the American representative on the executive committee for future interna- tional horticultural congresses. Although it has been less than three weeks since President Raymond Allen Pearson of the University of Maryland presented degrees and diplomas to nearly 250, the Old Line school already is busy with the enrollment for the 1930-31 term. A great majority of the students for the incoming freshman class like to get in their credits early so that if there should be any complications they may be straightened out before the “yearling: report on September 16. Many names are on the list in the registrar's office and_the applications are reaching College Park steadily. Last year's freshman class was a record-breaker, but it is probable that the one reporting next Fall will ex- ceed it. In the meantime the university will have held the rural women's short course, conducted six weeks of Sum- mer school and entertained the 4-H Club boys and girls. With the last named completing their visit on August 12, there's hardly time left to do the necessary renovating and cleaning up before the regular term begins. Maryland’s new, library, which also will contain the offices of President Pearson, H. C. Byrd. assistant presi- dent, and other administrative officials, is expected to be occupied when the in- stitution reopens. Facilities to be added in the near future include an addition to the engi- neering building, a control heating plant, a horticultural structure, dormi- tories for men and women and other improvements. A fleld house, to include a small in- door stadium for playing basket ball, is the leading addition planned for the athletic facilities, which now are among the best in the South. Figures just compiled by the chem- istry department of the university show that the class in quantitative analysis met an unusual test during the 1929-30 term. Part of the final examination for each student consisted of the analysis of samples of commercial steel and iron. When the student reported the result he obtained ,they were compared with the results found by the United States Bureau of Standards. Paul M. Ambrose of Legonier, Pa., whose average results differed from those obtained by the Bureau of Stand- ards by only seven-thousandths of 1 per cent, was the outstanding member of the class. The following table gives the results obtained by other members of the class | with the difference from the Bureau of Standards: F. P. Veitch, College Park, 0.015: A. D. Bowers, Hagerstown, 0.010: Wilhel- mina Kroll, Washington, 0.015; Oscar Spencer, Washington, 0.017: Thomas Jackson, Hyattsville, 0.021; Albert Heagy, Washington, 0.026; John P. Allen, Baltimore, 0.028: Marjorie Glass, Clarendon, Va. 0.055; Mary Koons, College Park, 0.040; Willlam Crentz, Washington, 0.068, and William P. Hartge, Galesville, 0.070. The elements determined were man- ganese, chronium, nickel, copper, sili- con, phosporus and arsenic. None of the students had had any previous in- struction in quantative analysis before entering the class. The method was adopted to eliminate any guesswork on the part of the instructor as to the students’ ability. Dr. L. B. Broughton is head of the chemistry department and Dr. R. C. Wiley is in direct charge of quantative chemical analysis. Dr. E. C. Auchter, head of the de- partment of horticulture at the uni- versity, has been elected president of the Sigma Xi Fraternity, with Dr. W. B. Kemp of the department of agron- omy and genetics vice president and Dr. M. M. Haring of the department of | k chemistry secretary-treasurer. Road Bids to Be Opened.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md., June 28.— Although the new Southern Maryland boulevard, affording a direct route to many popular bay resorts, is not offi- clally open, traffic is now using it daily in spite of warning by District Engi- neer Joseph Chaney of the State Roads Commission that motorists driving over the highway do so at their own risk. ‘The new thoroughfare, affording a much shorter route to Chesapeake Beach and Solomons Island, is now be- ml{l equipped with dirt shoulders and will not be officially opened until this work is completed, about July 24. How- ever, the concrete roadbed, 18 feet wide, is hard enough to carry traffic. Truck Ditched. Chaney says autoists are likely to encounter trouble if they are forced Ooff the concrete. One heavy truck was ditched yesterday, he said. Residents along the new $500,000 highway, however, have been using it ever since State Roads Commission watchmen were removed. ‘The new highway is a 12-mile thor- oughfare, starting at the Marlboro pike Just east of the Patuxent River and running to the Annapolis-Solomons road, which it joins at All Saints, a point about half a m''e south of Sun- derland. It Is said to shorten the dis- llll}ce to Solomons Island by about 8 miles. Shorter Route. Although a cut-off is new being built affo-ding a direct route from Wards Ture to Mount Harmony and into Chesapeake Beach and North Beach, Washingtonians on the way to the beaches find it much shorter even now to travel the new road to All Saints and then turn north to Mount Har- mony. This route is between 5 and 6 miles shorter than the usual route through Mount Zion. The road is also smoother and has fewer turns. The new cut-off from Wards Turn is expected to be opened about the same time the boulevard is finished. It is being constructed of gravel. Bus driv- ers operating between Washington and use the new road at least for one trip a day when it is opened. Plans are already being formulated for a celebration in honor of the open- ing of the new highway. John B. Gray, jr., of Prince Frederick, is chairman of | a committee which is arranging the detalls. At present it is expected the cele- bration will include a banquet at Chesa- peake Beach, at which Gov. Ritchie and other notables will speak.
