ANNAPOLIS, Md., March 18.—Read- ing into the record a letter from a Washington real estate firm which stated “12 or 15 Washingtonians are interested in a syndicate” that is buy- ing land in the Rock Creek Valley for | the purpose of selling it at a large profit to the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commissicn, Delegate Walter W. Dawson of Montgomery County yesterday made a futile attempt to halt the advancement of the Cram- ton act enabling bill. The measure was passed on third reading by vote of 87 to 18 in the House and now goes to the Senate, where no opposition is anticipated. Under _the terms of the bill Mont- gomery County would borrow $1.200,000 for the purchase of park lands and Prince Georges County not more than $800,00 if approved by the county com- missioners. The Federal Government then would advance 50 per cent more as its contribution. Text of Letter. | _“Up the Rock Creek Valley in the | State_of Maryland,” the letter read by | Mr. Dawson said, “is laid out a park | which ties in with and becomes an in- | tegral part of one of the most noted recreation areas in the entire world, | Rock Creek Park. The abutting land is now rather inaccessible and conse- quently can be bought at very low figures. “The Rock Creek Park Corporation | owns between 1,100 and },200 acres in this section and has in "addition an option on nearly 700 acres adjoining {- . . We know we have a wonderful and practically certain chance for large profits—several hundred per cent in a comparatively short time. “Land owned by the corporation costs less than $400 an acre, including carry- ing charges to this time, and that under option can be bought at less than $250 per acre. The extension of Connecticut avenue, as_tentatively approved by the | Maryland-National Capital Park and| | Planning Commission runs through it.” | Cites Rockv Pike Prices. | similar properties along the Rock- ville pike sold for $2,000 to $2,800 per acre recently, the letter concludes. | Waving the létter as evidence, Dele- | gate Dawson charged that the bill was | backed by a group of Washington and Montgomery County real estate opera- tors who would buy the land and sell it | lat a large profit to the taxpayers of | the county with the sanction of the Legislature. Delegates Oliver Metzerott and Rich- ard Zantzinger of Prince Georges | County joined Delegate Dawson in vot- irg against the measure.

By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. ANNAPOLIS, Md., March 18.—Sound- ing a rallying call to the faint-hearted in the fight for reasonable regulation and taxation of the billboard industry, as applied to all other businesses hav- ing power to abuse as well as use the public highways, Miss Lavinia Engle, delegate from Montgomery County, to day declared she would rather see the pending bill killed on the floor of the House than placed on the statute books if reduced to a mere form. Her remarks reflected the confidence of those behind the bill, who, having agreed upon certain amendments, sug- gested by various delegates, today feel that the chances of passing the meas- ure have never been brighter. Statement a Warning. At the same time, Miss Engle's state- ment became a warning to a few of the less courageous supporters of the measure, who having listened not wisely but too well to the cries of the salaried lobbyists working to defeat the proposed legislation, showed an inclination to overamend the bill. These professional propagandists, skilled by the constant practice of their “performance” necessitated through the efforts of progressive civic organiza- tions all over the country to halt the desecration of the Nation's highways, “laugh up their sleeve” at the guili- bility of the public in falling for their “stock” arguments, she pointed out. Onc of the ‘“professional” gestures which the companies always make to give the impression their motives are magnanimous is to express a desire for some type of regulation. Forced Upon Them. This expression has been forced upon them by the widespread resentment against the ruin of costly public high- ways by sordid arrays of signs. In Maryland as well as in other States this resentment has been manifest through the cancellaticn of billboard contracts involving thousands of dollars and the boycott of billboard-advertised products. The boycott is a severe tactic, not recommended by those sponsoring the regulatory measure, but certain, they say, to become more widespread if some type of control over billboards is not established. It has been adopted by some groups who feel justified in such a reprisal by the widespread disregard for the rights of the public displayed by the unrestrained billboard operators in reducing so many to their present squalid condition. Drafted by Experts. The bill now before the House of Delegates was drafted by constitutional experts for the purpose of restricting, not prohibiting, billboards. It places them under the jurisdiction of the State Roads Commission, requires the licensing of the companies and imposes a square foot tax on individual signs. ‘The chief change in the amendments, which will be submitted to the Ways and Means Committee today, will re- duce the lastnamed feature from 3 cents to 1 cent per square foot per year. This change was agreed upon by the joint sponscrs of the bill, who do not believe the tax reduction would affect the essential regulatory principle sought by the bill. With the submission of the amend- ments to the Ways and Means Commit- tee, the fate of the bill, and of the future of Maryland’s highways, will de- pend largely on the action of that group of 18 members. Although the reports of committees are by no means always adopted, a favorable report is consid- ered advantageous, creating the impres- sion that the proposed law is needful. A prompt report is anticipated on the billboard measure. Delegates Lawrence P. Williams of St. Mary’s County and Oliver Metzerctt of Prince Georges County, two f the quartet who introduced the bill, are members of the Ways and Means Com- mittee. The others who presented the bill are Miss Engle and Delegate Kent R. Mullikin of Prince Georges County. ESTATE $101,688.44 Court Asked for Letters Since Exec- utors Are Dead. Mary A. Cushing, who died at Chevy Chase December 7 last, owned no real estate, but had personal property val- ued at $101,688.44, according to the petition of Lucy M. Wing for letters on the estate. The court is advised that both executors named in the will, dated January 3, 1923, are dead. The bill provides bequests of $15,000 to David L. Wing, $5000 to his wife, Lucy M. Wing; $5000 to Walter K. Barton, $2000 to his wife, Mary T. Barton, and $6,000 to Eunice W. Stern. The income from a trust fund of $15, 000 is to be paid to Sarah M. C. Hos- kins of Los Angeles for life. The re- maining estate, after the payment of other smaller bequests, is to be distrib- uted among Wilson M., Mary C. and Sarah A. Wing. HANDCUFFED BOY FREED Pirmly locked in the grip of a pair of handcuffs with which he had been playing, William Thomas, 16 years old, of 820 Sheridan street, calmly sat in his bed room early this morning while members of fire rescue squad No. 2 lib- erated him with the assistance of a hacksaw. The youth took the handcuffs to bed last night and was tinkering with the “bracelets” when they suddenly snap- ped around his ankles. This was shortly after midnight. His mother, Mrs. Julia Thomas, called the rescue squad, and firemen, working under the direction of Sergt. L. P. Clements, soon freed her son.

WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT. COFFIN ADVOCATES LISTING WORKERS Also Recommends Educating Industry to Requirements in Event of War. A program of educating industry | regarding things that would be re- quired in time of war and the estab- lishment of an industrial reserve as a means of listing skilled workers whose services would be essential to industry in the event of future conflicts were the chief recommendations made to the War Policies Commission today by How- ard E. Coffin, member of the Naval Con- ! sulting Board, who also served on the Council of National Defense and on the Aircraft Board during the World War. To carry out the educational pro- gram Mr. Coffin said the War and Navy Departments should be authorized by Congress to place limited educational orders in time of peace for technical things which do not enter into ordinary economic life as a means of keeping | industry familiar with war-time re- quirements. Hits Labor Conscription. ‘The witness emphasized that he is op- d to conscription of labor, and to militarization of industry, but thought that through an industrial re- serve a list could be made of those skilled workers whose technical knowl- edge would be essential in an emer- gency. Secretary of War Hurley, chairman, told Mr. Coffin the task before the com- mission is to devise a means of equaliz- ing the burdens and minimizing profits in the event of a future conflict, and asked him if he had recommendations that might help the commission. in ac- complishing that object. Mr. Coffin said that questions could be answered- in one word, by ‘“prear- rangement.” He explained that what he meant by prearrangewment was to || know in advance what the ssuntry is going to do in an emergency. He said the one thing that would cause a re- currence of the difficulties this country confronted in getting started in the last war would be “to face another emer- || gency without a plan.” As to equalizing the burdens of war, Mr. Coffin said this could never be done entirely to the extent of offsetting the loss of lives in the trenches, other than by looking after the families of those who give their lives as they should be || looked after. Mr. Coffin told the commission, in urging adequate planning, that the one product this country had that it could put its hands on at the beginning of the last war was money, and that it set_out to overcome the other short- comings by large expenditures. With regard to the definite recom- mendations made by Mr. Coffin, Chair- | man Hurley pointed out that the War Department already has prepared, un- der the national defense act, plans for || the mobilization of and co-operation with industry in the event of an emer- gency. Willlam _Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, told the commission yesterday afternoon he thought the most practical way to curb excess profits in event of future wars would be by recapture through the power of taxation. Some price fixing probably would be necessary also, he said, but should be flexible to meet changing conditions during an emer- gency. Asked by Secretary of War Hurley to comment on Bernard M. Baruch’s plan to “freeze” the whole price lsvel at the outbreak of a war, Mr. Green said he had a high regard for Mr. Baruch's opinion, but found it difficult to accept that particular view. Mr. Green said laboring people abhor the thought of another war, but that if it should ever occur it should be con- cluded as quickly as possible. He said the rule of reason should be applied to | meeting the problems of such an emer- | gency. A."J. Lovell, vice president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, stressed the importance || of maintaining’ transportation service in time of war. Maj. Gen. C. C. Williams, retired, for- mer chief of ordnance, aiso gave the commission his views on the problems before it yesterday. *® " A-3 HAMPTON SINGERS WILL APPEAR HERE Many Distinguished Men and Women Among Sponsors for Concert Saturday.
