Beautiful Funersl Sprays AT. 117 a4 SURDAYS® COURT CASE CENTER Storm Must Now Appear to Fight for Son’s Custody on Ex-Wife's Petition. Robert E. Storm, 1681 Columbia road, who was acquitted in Police Court April 19 of assaulting his 11- year-old son Fred, now must appear in District Court to fight for the boy’s custody. Late yesterday Storm's divorced wife, Mrs. Margaret Hoffman, 1428 R street, petitioned the court to set the divorce decree granted Storm March 27, 1936, in which' he was awarded custody of the child. Basis for the decree was the wife's alleged infidelity. Recently Mrs. Hoffman, who re- married October 3, 1936, had Storm brought into Police Court on a charge of assaulting their son. After a hearing which attracted much at- tention Judge John P. McMahon agreed with Storm’s attorney, Jean M. Boardman, that the father used no more violence than was permissible to enforce parental discipline. * Through Attorney Walter W. Dosh, Mrs. Hoffman charged that Storm was not a “suitable person” to rear their son and asked transfer of his custody. —_— Beaths. OUEEN. \STEPHEN. On Wednesd: v.

Conditions of serious overcrowding | at the District Jail and the Training School for Feeble-minded at Laurel, Md., were reported yesterday by the Board of Public Welfare. A steadily increasing number of patients at the Laurel institution has prevented segregation, according to Dr. James Lewald. superintendent. Lack of accommodations also has made it { necessary to deny admission to about | 500 childreri who have applied. The school's daily average numbered 541 patients in June, as against 531 last year. , Conditions at the jail last month showed a daily average of 650 prison- ers, against 518 in June a year ago, A total of 1,536 prisoners were admitted last month. Supt. Thomas M. Rives reported. The congestion made it necessary for many prisoners to sleep on mattresses on the floor. This prac- tice has been reported for several months. FORMER U. S.

PERSONS EXCUSE IN TAX INQUIRY Individuals Mentioned Will Not Be Subpoenaed in Avoidance Cases. BACKGROUND— Disappointing income tax returns of last March led to Treasury De- partment inquiry into causes. Un- covering use of several eflective means of reducing taz liability, de- partment placed before special con- gressional committee names of numerous wealthy pefsons who have applied these devices. Committee openly invited all those named to appear if they so desired; also considered subpoena- ing some whose actions might have been considered illegal. B3 the Associatea Press. Chairman Doughton said today the Congressional Tax Inquiry Com- mittee has abandoned any idea of subpoenaing individuals described by ‘Treasury officials as having avoided taxes. None has volunteered to testify, Doughton said. “We have sufficient information, I believe,” he said, “on which to base legislation designed to reduce l.ax‘ avoidance.” The committee will meet in ClDaed session early next week. By that time, Doughton asserted, congres- sional bill drafters expect to have measures ready for submission. The chairman predicted Congress would pass legislation to close tax loopholes this session even should hasten adjournment. Protest Put in Record. One protest, from Jessie Ball du Pont, wife of the late Alfred I. Du Pont, went into the committee's records today. It replied to testimony of Arthur L. Kent, Treasury attorney, that Du | Pont or his estate would have paid | $200,000 more in taxes from 1931 to though | the death of Senate Leader Robinson | 1935 had he not transferred more | than $1,000.000 worth of property to | & personal holding | Nemours, company. The propert primarily of a “palatial residence at | ‘Wilmington, Del.” of stock was transferred to the hold- ing company and its income used to Inc,, | meet the expenses of the mansion.” ‘These expenses, which about equaled | the income from the securities. Kent | said, were deducted from the holding company's taxable income, so the lat- ter paid “practically no tax." | Statement Declared Unjust. | Mrs. du Pont wired the committee that Kent's statement and the infer- | ences to be drawn from it “are mis- ' leading, unwarranted and unjust. i “Not a dollar of the income of Nemours, Inc.,” she said, the securities * * hold expense of Mr. du Pont or of any | member of his family. | She said Du Pont had expected w: construct on part of his Delaware property the first unit of a hospital | for crippled children and that he pro- vided in his will for the structure. Navy Horse Honored. With all the honors usually accord- ed an officer when he leaves a war- | ship, a horse has retired from the | British Navy.

SAN JACINTO, Calif.,, July 15.—A 6,700-mile flight over the North Pole means nothing to a California fruit inspector with a duty to perform. Apparently unimpressed by the feat of the three Russian aviators who landed here, the inspector-—nobody seems to have caught his name— climbed aboard the plane and confis- cated a bag of fruit, California has a strict fruit quar- antine, aimed at blight, on out-of-State products. ROPER STUDIES PLEAS FOR THREE LONG HOPS Dick Merrill, Howard Hughes Ask Permits .for Globe Flights. Soviet Trip Asked. Applications from Henry T. “Dick” Merrill and Mark Hellinger, New York newspaper man, to make a flight around the world along the Wiley Post route; from Howard Hughes, movie producer and speed fiyer, to fly around the earth, and from Jimmie Mattern to fly the Soviet route from tne United States across the North Pole to Moscow, have not been acted upon, Secretary of Commerce Roper admitted yesterday. There is strong pressure being brought upon the Commerce Depart- ment to cancel all permission for so- called “stunt” flights as a result of the disappearance of Amelia Ear- hart Putnam and other ocean-flying disasters, it was explained. Secretary Roper said that the appli- cations were “under advisement,” but that no decision has been reached as to whether permission will be granted for all or any of the proposed flights.

WELFARE BOARD Resolution of Appreciation for Long Bervices Adopted at Bpecial Meeting. An expression of appreciation for the long services of Mrs. Charles Gold- smith 85 & member and recretary of the Board of Public Welfare of the District was adoptec at a special board meeting yesterday. Mrs. Goldsmith resigned from the board this week after continuous serv- ice since its organization in 1926 and was succeeded by Mrs. Louise Berliner King. The resolution cited her record of volunteer services, which include not only 11 years on the Board of Public Welfare, but also work in connection with the Travelers' Aid Society, the Instructive Visiting Nurses' Socety, the Jewish Bocial Service Agency, the Jewish Foster Home, the Hebrew Home for Aged, the Community Chest Bud- get Committee and Executive Commit- tee, the Council of Social Agencies and other connections. “She has in all these activities been energetic, enthusiastic, loyal, untiring and devoted to the best interests of the people of Washington,” the resolution said. Butterfly in Cnntn]oupc BEAUFORT, N. C. (#)—Bill Wells tells this one. He bought a cantaloupe, took it | home and halved it. Out flew a butterfly with an inch wing spread. He said it apparently developed from a larva which had bored its way in- side. OKLAHOMA CITY.—There are two men in this vicinity whom Dave Can- non, brewery employe, doesn't care to meet’ again. As they hi-jacked Cannon of $140, one of the men said: “Well, we are getting acquainted.” Cannon says they were the same men who robbed him of $200 three weeks ago. e L Handshake Reform On. “Back to the handshake of our an- cestors” is the slogan of a movement gaining headway at Nanking and else- where in China. If these sticklers for tradition have their way, the €hinese will soon cease shaking each other’s hands. The old custom consists in grasping one’s own hands and mov- ing them up and down. @da.r Hill Washingtoms most 3 Cme erg Community Mamsoleum,, Cojgmbarium.
