The fact the revised District vehicle inspection bill, recently approved by the Budget Bureau and submitted to Congress, does not pro- vide specifically that fees collected under it go for inspection purposes only, may jeopardize its chances of passage in the Senate, Senator Reynolds, Democrat, of North Caro- lina, member of the Senate District Committee, strongly intimated in a letter yesterday to Commissioner Hazen. An advocate of inspection legisla- tion to reduce traffic accidents in the District, Reynolds recently wrote the Budget Bureau recommending that its objection to such legislation be removed. A revised bill was drawn up and received the approval of the bureau. Sees Revenue Emphasized. “However, I note that the revised bill,” the Senator wrote, “changes the form of the previously recommended legislation in the sense that inspec- tion fees would go into general funds, rather than be held for strictly inspection purposes. Thus, in a sense, the measure becomes a reve- nue-raising bill rather than safety legislation. I am strongly opposed to this idea and many of my col- leagues share this view.” Reynolds made it clear that his concern in the matter had to do with the sale of unsafe used cars, recently exposed by the American Automobile Association, and recommended that the District government approach the inspection problem “by degrees” and not on “the wholesale basis that would place new taxes on all motor- ists at a time when other tax increases are threatened.” Meanwhile, Central High School students of sociology have taken an active interest in the problem, as wit- nessed from a letter sent to the Key- stone Automobile Club. They would place a blanket responsibility of the “alarming number of traffic acci- dents” in the District on “the driver, the pedestrian and the law itself,” with the driver being blamed in the majority of cases. “It is entirely possible that the crux of the problem can be found at the very start: the Traffic Bureau, where permits are obtained,” they wrote, recommending more stringent examinations for license applicants. The letter also recommended more rigid laws governing the pedestrian and more thorough enforcement of existing laws. In Memoriam. BRYANT. LULA. membrance of our dear mother.

Steel plates on his shoes helped to- day to identify Julius Williams, 26, as & robber who “sounded like a horse” when he ran. ‘Williams, who lives in the first block of De Frees street, was held for the grand jury on $1,000 bond by Judge John P. McMahon in Police Court, He was charged with robbing Joseph Caldwell, 518 Varnum street, of $2 and his pocketbook at Third street and New Jersey avenue several nights ago. Caldwell told police the robber “sound- ed like a horse” when he ran away. Pvt. Robert J. Maghan remembered this when he arrested Williams as a suspect in other robberies and found steel plates on his shoes. Caldwell later picked Williams from a line-up at the second precinct station, Wheat (Continued From First Page.) situation, was demoralized by sellers | who threw over wheat at any price. While Chicago prices rallied a cent or more from early lows and within & half hour steadied at a level about 3 cents below the previous close, traders said domestic prices, built up largely during the March bull market on heavy import buying of European powers, were now feeling the absence of these stimulating influences. Im- proved conditions in the United States Winter wheat belt also had a more pronounced effect on the market. MOST COMMODITIES DROP, Copper and Copper Prices Thought Affected by Grain. NEW YORK, April 16 (#).—Led by the world-wide break in grain prices, most commodities, with the exception of rubber, declined sharply today. In New York domestic producers lowered the price of copper '; cent a pound to 15!, cents, bringing their quotation to the level established last week by the customs smelters. Ex- port copper and copper futures de- clined as prices fell in the London Metal Exchange. Cotton futures dropped by from 55 oents to 85 cents a bale with the impetus toward liquidation coming largely from abroad. Japanese in- terests, however, were said to be buy- ing on the decline. In other futures markets the fall in prices was said to be due more to the weakness of the grains than any- thing else. cent a pound, cocoa yielded .18 of a cent, silk was off 2 to 6 cents a pound and coffee quotations ranged from about unchanged to .09 of a cent down. Rubber, in the face of figures show- ing March consumption was the heav- lest on record, advanced by from .11 to .17 of a cent a pound. Today's decline in the cotton mar- ket carried values down by approxi- mately $5 to $6.50 a bale from the high level of two weeks ago. At that time the market had experienced a perpendicular advance of $10.50 to $11.50 over a period of six weeks. PLUNGE AT WINNIPEG. WINNIPEG, April 16 (Canadian Press).—Wheat prices plunged down the 5-cent limit at the opening of the Winnipeg Grain Exchange today in a wild burst of selling which repeated yesterday's 5-cent drops. May wheat opened 335-47; cents lower at 1.31'2-1.33, and July wheat swept 413-5 cents lower at 1.271-1.28. October wheat, which held fairly steady yesterday, collapsed at the opening of the market today, declin- ing 2%-5 cents at 1.16-1.18%;. Coarse grain prices tumbled with wheat, flax dropping 5 cents. — e Paris to Limit Rates. ‘The French government plans to limit prices charged by hotels, restau- rants, furnished apartments and pen- sions during the Paris Exhibition this year.
