MARYLAND AGRES SOUGHT BY FERA Land in Garrett County Wanted for Recreational Purposes. Plans of the Government for purs chasing 10,340 acres of submarginal land in Garrett County, Md., near Cumberland, for recreational and rec- lamation purposes were announced today by the Federal Emergency Relief Administration. Options on 25 tracts have been ac- cepted by the land program of F. E. R. A. The land is being purchased with the same view in mind as the de- velopment of a similar tract some 30 miles from Washington, near Quan- tico, Va. After purchase has been effected, it was announced the land in Garrett County will be turned over for admin- istration to the Forestry Department of the University of Maryland. It is possible that additional land may be purchased if owners are willing to sell their farms at a fair price, based upon expert appraisal. Plans for the Garrett County proj- ect were prepared by the land policy section of the A. A. A, with the co- (" operation of the State Agricultural Extension Service of the University of Maryland. The Maryland State Planning Board nlw confirmed selec- tion of the site. After the sale ol their present farms, the inhabitants of the area will be as- sisted by Government officials in find- ing more suitable homes elsewhere. The lands acquired will be retired from cultivation and be developed for for- est, watershed protection, recreation and erosion control purposes. LUSK LUNCH ESTIMATE IS HELD INACCURATE Mrs. John Boyle, Leader of Fight for Schools, Says $125,000 Is Ridiculous. Mrs. John Boyle, jr., chairman of the Washington Consumers’ Council, who is leading the fight to have $79,000 of the $2,000,000 relief fund earmarked for school lunches, today said that, while she realized that Rufus S. Lusk was trying to save the taxpayer's money, his estimate of $125,000 for the lunches was “hope= lessly inaccurate and ridiculous.” Lusk, who is head of the Washing- ton Taxpayers' Protective Associa- tion, made his estimate yesterday. “Even if it did cost this much, which it does not,” Mrs. Boyle seid, “it would be a profitable investment, because if the children are fed they will be more fitted to take advantage of the educational facilities offered them. Children cannot learn much if they are hungry.” Frida you can use now and later! THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, “PINK SLIP" VOTE NEAR IN-SENATE Argument Over La Follette Tax Rider Delays Roll Call on Repeal. By the Associated Press. The bill to repeal the “pink slip” income-tax publicity law moved toward a vote in the Senate today, but argument over a tax rider pro- posed by Senator La Follette, Pro- gressive, of Wisconsin, delayed the final roll call. Opponents of publicity expressed confidence that a vote on La Follette's amendment for higher income and surtax rates would be blocked by a point of order raised yesterday. They read in the 51-to-25 vote against another La Follette amend- ment, which would have made all in- come-tax returns public records, a sign of ultimate victory for “pink slip” repeal. Long Enters Debate. Vice President Garner planned to let the Senate as a whole decide on the point of order brought up against the La Follette tax rider. It was based on the constitutional requirement that ' 31-516° New Spring Suits Spring’s smartest TAILORED suits of fine men’s wear flannels, worsteds and tweeds . . . man-tailored in double and single breasted models.

Leaders had hoped the Senate would complete action on the tax publicity question yesterday, but this was pre- vented by a debate in which Senator Long of Louisiana teok a hand. Senator Couzens, Michigan Repub- lican, brought the discussion to a climax with an assertion that there had been “shameful evasions” in in- come tax cases involving Andrew W. Mellon, former Secretary of the Treas- ury. Arguing against repeal of the ‘pink slip” law, Couzens contended publicity would prevent such practices. McAdoo Urges Repeal. Senator McAdoo, Democrat, of Cali- fornia, said the “honest taxpayer” should be spared “the wrong and in- justice of !nvading his private affairs “Speaks for Itself” Our Chefs— await the chance to show you what they can do for -m-m!

Rallying to contentions that publication of income figures would guide kidnapers to wealthy victims, La Follette said there had been no kidnapings ‘n Wisconsin since the pub- lcity law went into effect there. Senator Duffy, Democrat, of Wis- consin argued that income tax re- turns had decreased in Wisconsin as a result of the law. Long said Democrats had “sud- denly found out that Wall Strect be- longs to the Democratic party and not the Republican party after all.” Je THE NEW lleffs THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1935.
