Gen. Pel- ham D. Glassford for appointment as a Commissioner. ‘The three associations were Hill- crest, East Washington Heights and Congress Heights. It was the Hillcrest Citizens’ Asso- ciation which also indorsed Gen. Glass- ford, the organization suggesting the former police chief for the post now held by Police Commissioner Herbert B. Crosby. Also Indorse Havenner. ‘The same association, meeting in the East Washington Heights Baptist Church, recommended that Dr. Haven- ner be appoirted to the post now held by Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer. The group also voted to join the Du- pont Circle Citizens’ Association to se- cure legislation to permit the extermi- nation of starlings. ‘The association also decided to con- tinue its efforts to have arranged a more convenient bus schedule for the community. At present busses leave for the downtown section every half hcur during the rush hours and hourly at cther times, and residents have been seeiing a 15-minute rush-hour sched- ule a..d a 20-minute regular schedule. ‘The name of Dr. Havenner was pro- posed to the Congress Heights associa- tion by E.

The association also voted in favor of allowing all-night parking in the District. ‘The association reported that the profit from a recent benefit motion pic- ture show was $27, of which $20 was a gold certificate.

KANSAS CITY, March 14.—Elmer N. Powell, attorney, and his friend, Edward D. Ellison, dean of the Kansas City School of Law, wagered a luncheon on the outcome of & test of the power of suggestion. “We will gaze at an upper story hotel window for 15 minutes, and if a crowd of at least 15 persons assembles, you buy the lunch,” the dean proposed. ‘The test was made. To the amaze- ment of the attorney a crowd of 1,500 persons assembled. Along with the crowd came dashing fire apparatus.; Flames darted from the very window under scrutiny. Lawyer Powell paid for the luncheon but he contends Dean Ellison won on a technicality. | TAXPAYERS MAY DEDUCT ONLY LEVIES THEY PAY Indirect Federal Assessments Can- not Be Deducted on In- come Returns. By the Assoclated Press. Taxpayers may deduct from their 1932 incomes only such of the new levies contained in the billion-dollar tax bill as they themselves pay. In paying taxes on last year's in- come the Internal Revenue Bureau ruled, the individual nay not deduct the majority of the stamp taxes and the manufacturers’ excise taxes, al- though in the final analysis, the pur- chaser pays the tax. Under this ruling the individual can- not deduct tobacco taxes but may de- duct taxes on sales, issues and transfers of stock and bonds if he himself paid the tax. If he did not pay the tax, then the person who did deducts the amount. Other taxes which may be deducted are those on electrical energy, bank checks and drafts, telephone conversa- tions, telegraph messages, leased wires and talking circuits, admissions, safe deposit boxes, motor boats and club dues. Commissioner Crosby, and the letter pointed out the long civic service of the former head of the Federation of Cit- izens’ Asscciations, who now heads the Anacostia Citizens’ Association. —Complete with ex- amination, spherical lenses, frame and case. $12.50 value. %6.65 —The aristocrat of eyewear, in white gold filled, fitted with the new “Holdtite” nose rests.
