D. G. SUPPLY BILL * APPROVAL IS NEAR Measure Out of Conference, | With Senate Accepting F Meuse Terms on Issues. (Oontinued From First Page.) reductions made in the revised estimates by the Budget Bureau would not use up all of the revenue which it appears at that time would be collected on the basis of the present rate. When the 1934 bill was reported to the House it was estimated the surplus remaining in the District’s .general fund would be approximately $6,000,000. A study of actual tax collections in the last few months may necessitate some change in this estimate. * ‘The bill, as it passed the House April 5, appropriated $30202442. It was estimated last night that the agree- ment reached by the conferees repre- sents a total of $30,375,000 of regular appropriations. ‘This figure, however, does not include funds which may be spent under the bill, but which are not figured in the report because they come from gas tax and water fund surpluses and from unexpended balances of prior appropriations that are made available. ese Various sums amount to approxi- mately $2,759,000 and mean that close to $33,000,000 may be spent under the bill as it came from conference. | | Held in Shooting ELMER W. HOLLAND, JR. ADMITS SLAYING WOMAN IN HOTEL Can Spend Surplus. ‘The House bill, for example, provided that $1,040,000 of the District's gaso- line tax surplus could be spent for work-creating projects, subject to presi- dential approval. Senate raised the permissible total that could be spent to $1,500,000, and provided that part of this fund should be used to start a new Calvert Street Bridge and to widen and repave Constitution avenue from North Capitol to Second streets. These rojects were retained in the final bill, ut, while the Senate wanted the Dis- trict Commissioners to have the power of passing on expenditures from this fund, the conferees finally made the fund subject to approval of the Budget Bureau. Before the Calvert Street Bridge can be started the District Commis- sioners are directed to make a restudy of the question of which type of bridge should be erected. ‘The Senate tried to have four school building projects provided for, by using $876,000 of unexpended Municipal Center funds, ‘There weré no new school buildings in the original House bill. The House conferees agreed to leave in two of the buildings, represent- ing $570,000. Water Fund Surplus. The conference report also allows ex- penditure of $635,000 of waier fund surplus for improvement, but with the same change as in the case of the gas tax surplus, namely, giving the Budget Bureau power to wve the projects. This same power of approval was given the Budget Bureau in the amendment to_allow transfer of funds from one subhead to another in certain depart- Shepherd Park Watchman Gives Self Up in Death of Mrs. Morrison. Mrs. Leila Morrison, 28, was shot to | death early today while in bed in a| room at the Franklin Park Hotel, the bullet, fired from outside the locked | door, plercing the elbow of & colored | elevator operator, then going through the thin wall of the room, clipping off the lobe of the woman's ear and bury- ing itself in her chest. ‘The man who fired the shot—Elmer W. Holland, jr., 25, of 7707 Thirteenth street—did not learn the bullet had struck any one other than the hotel employe until several hours later when he called at the home of his estranged wife. Then he was informed the bullet had killed Mrs. Morrison and that police had béen there looking for him. Overcome by fear, Holland drove out into Maryland and hid in patch of | woods until about 7 a.m., when he went to the sixth precinct and surrendered. In Flance’s Room. Mrs. Morrison, said to be the mother | of a 10-year-old girl, was in the room of her flance, Fred Williamson, on the | sixth floor of the hotel, at the time of | the shooting, which occurred about 3 am. Holland, a special officer em- ployed to watch residences in the Shep- herd Park section, went to the hotel in the hope of purchasing some liquor, he said, He had been to Williamson’s| AHE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, (BRIEN MENTIONED ASENVOY TOBERLIN Roosevelt Expected to Name Washingtonian as Ambassador. BY CONSTANTINE BROWN. It was reported today in Washington that President Roosevelt intends to ap- point Col. Arthur O'Brien, prominent Washingtonian, as Ambassador to Ger- many and that the German govern- ment has been asked for the usual ap- proval which is necessary before the appointment is sent to the Senate for | confirmation. | Col. O'Brien, who was born in Chi- cago 49 years ago, has made Washing- ton his permanent residence since 1923, He is one of the leading Democrats of the Capital and served as a delegate from the District at the national con- vention in Chicago last year. He is intimately connected with the Democratic organization in Washing- ton. As vice chairman of the Victory Drive, he took charge of raising funds in the District to pay off the expenses of the 1928 campaign. Complex Situation. The complex situation in Germany made it difficult for the President to chose his representative in tifat country until now. The American Ambakssador at Berlin is required at this time to show more tact and sympathy toward & nation which is still in the turmoil of a violent evolution than a diplomat appointed to any other post. The persecution of the Jews in Ger- many, the problem of Germany seeking & position equal to that of the other powers in the concert of nations and the important investments of American citizens in Germany, all require careful handling with a government which is very jealous of its rights and does not want to tolerate any direct immixture in the country’s affairs. Many names, including that of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, have been sug- gested to the President for this post, but it is reliably stated that Mr. Roose- velt has decided to select the dis- tinguished Washingtonian. At the same time the name of Michael Francis Cudahy was sent to the Senate for confirmation as Ambas- sador to Poland. Mr, Cudahy, who makes his home in Cudahy, Wisc., has been actively identi- fled with the meat packing business since 1910 and is at present president of Cudahy Bros. His name was mentioned in connec- tion with the ambassadorship to Cuba a few months ago. The situation in that island required, however, a special knowledge, and the President asked the new Assistant Secretary of State, Sum- ner Welles, to take up that position temporarily. ‘The ambassadorship to Poland has been vacant since the resignation of another Washingtonian, Ferdinand L. Belin, who had been appointed to that {Rabbi May Be Envoy COL. ARTHUR O'BRIEN, D. C. SCHOOL BOARD TOLOSE DR. SIMON Will Not Stand for Reappointment After Term Ends. Rabbi Abram Simon, who first was appointed to the board in 1919, will not stand for reappointment to the District of Columbia Board of Edu- cation at the expiration of his cur- rent three-year term June 30, it was revealed at a meeting of the board late yecterday. In a letter to Dr. Hayden Johnson school board president, Dr. Simon sai that “for reasons which must be obvi- ous to you,” he would withdraw from membership on the school board. His associates on the board accepted his explanation as referring to his six- month illness from which he only now is recuperating. Elected in 1920. Dr. Simon was elected president of the board on July 1, 1920, less than a year after his first appointment. He resigned the chair, however, in Decem- ber, 1921, only to be re-elected in July, 1922. At the expiration of his term, June 30, 1923, Dr. Simon sepa- rated himself from the school board for seven years. He was reappointed, how- ever, in January, 1930, to succeed Isaac Gans, who resigned. After completion of Mr. Gans’ unexpired term, Dr. Simon was reappointed to the board July 1, 1930. In November, 1931, he again was chosen president of the board. Pressed with the business of his church, how- ever, the rabbi attempted to withdraw D. €, THURSDAY MATTERN DELAYED BY GAS LINE LEAK World Flyer, Down at Proko- pievsk, Almost Overcome by Fumes. (Continued From First Page) In response to a question about what his own log said, Mattern replied: “Hell! I have lost all track of time.” Asked the exact time he landed, the flyer gave the same rejoinder. “I can't tell you exactly,” he ex- plained, “but I was just four hours out of Omsk when I found out what had happened and I came down almost im- mediately.” Having left Omsk at 1:10 am. Wed- nesday, Moscow time, (5:10 p.m. Tues- day, Eastern standard time), his landing would have been some time after 5 am. Moscow time (9:00 p.m. Tuesday, Eastern standard time), or approxi mately one hour after he passed over Novo Sibirsk, * “I climbed out of my plane by my- self,” Mattern contioued, “although I was 50 groggy I could hardly stand.

The champion, usually deadly accu- rate with his woods, pushed half his tee shots into the rough and was saved from going into the forties only because of some exceptional recoveries from the deep grass. Sarazen Draws Fans. Half the gallerys of 1,500 spectators followed Sarazen and his partner, Wiffy Cox of Brooklyn, while most of the others pursued Walter Hagen and Olin Dutra, who has 36 and 37, re- spectively. Hagen's birdie 2 on the ninth enabled him to be level with par. » Two of the best early scores were 35's each for Charles Mayo, sr., of Long Beach, N. Y., and Ralph Beach, Baltimore district star. Johnny Farrell and Horton Smith, each with 36 out, were among the stars off to good starts in the 72-hole grind. Among the early first-round finishers, Mortie Dutra’s 75, 3 over par, set the mark for the field to shoot at.

Although the Senate kept two new school building projects in the bill, it had to eliminate two others—namely: For a 10-room addition to the Deal Junior High School, $153,000, and for a 10-room addition to the Browne Junior High, $153.000. The two build- ing projects retained in the bill are: To begin the new Woodrow Wilson High School, in the Reno section, $475000 with authority to make contracts up to & 1imit of $1,150,000; to erect an eight- room building in the vicinity of the Logan School, $95,000. These two school projects total $570,000 and will come from an unexpended balance appropri- ated previously for the Mu. .cipal Center development. ‘The Senate lost a $1,530 increase for personal services in the Police Depart- ment and also lost at $2932 increase for repairs 40 Zife apparatus.
