-~ A—2 w» Driver Changes Plea ToGuiltyin Negligent Homicide Donald W. Bell’s Case To Be Referred to Probation Department Donald W. Bell, 54, of 416 Garfield avenue, Hyattsville, Md. yesterday withdrew his demand for a jury trial and pleaded guilty to,g charge of negligent homicide before Police Court Judge Walter J. Casey. It marked the fourth guilty plea entered in the five-year history of the negligent homicide statute, ac- cording to Assistant United States Attorney David A. Hart, who has been directing Government prosecu- tion of such cases. Judge Casey granted Defense At- torney T. Edward O'Connell’s re- quest that Mr. Bell’s case be referred to the probation department for further investigation and report before imposing sentence, set for April 6. The maximum penalty is a $1,000 fine, one year in jail, or both, Mr. Hart said. Mr. Bell was held by the coroner following the traffic death of Robert Whitney, 78, of 111 B street SE., from injuries received when he was struck by the defendant’s automobile as he walked in a crosswalk from the east to west curb of Fourteenth street SW. at the intersection of Jefferson drive last October 22. Dr. Richard M. Rosenberg, deputy cor- ner, who performed the autopsy, attributed death four days later to a crushed chest, cerebral hemor- rhage and shock. Traveling Not Over 10 M. P. H, Testimony at the inquest revealed that Mr. Bell, accompanied by his wife and daughter, was driving south on Fourteenth street toward the Highway Bridge when the acci- dent occurred. He struck the aged pedestrian about eight feet east of the west curb of Fourteenth street while traveling at a speed not ex- ceeding 10 miles per hour at the time of impact. . Drivers and passengers in two cars following the Bell auto said that the defendant drove through a red traffic light before striking the victim. They said the Bell ma- chine stopped within a car length and added that 1t was traveling at “a very moderate rate” and that the driver swerved right in attempt- ing to avoid a collision. Weather conditions were good and the sun was shining when the mishap’ oc- curred at 12:15 p.m. Brakes on the striking car were reported satis- factory. Noticed No Signal Light. Testifying at the inquest, Mr. Bell declared he did not see the traffic signal light and did not know there was a signal at that corner until after the accident. Mr. Bell said he was employed by the Tariff| Commission and seldom drove in that part of the city. He said he first noticed Mr. Whit- ney when about half a block away. | He estimated his speed at approxi- mately 20 miles per hour at that time, but said he slowed down to about 10 miles per hour or less at the intersection. The defendant said he kept watching the man as he walked and that the pedestrian did not look up until he was within about 5 feet of the automobile, to the driver's left. Wr. Whitney stopped, hesitated and then started running in front of the car, Mr. | Bell said. The driver applied his | brakes just before striking the vic- tim and halted the car immediately. Police said that Mr Bell, who came to Washington eight years ago, had had 20 years’ driving exper- ience and that this was his first accident. W. C. T. U.

Store Milk Price Cut To 13c Per Quart In Nearby Virginia Change to Be Effective May 1, With 3-Cent Deposit on Bottles The retail price of milk sold through stores in Arlington, Alexan- dria and parts of Fairfax County will be reduced from 14 cents to 13 cents per quart on May 1, under an | order approved today by the Virginia | Milk Commission. | Lewis Robinson, the commission's | | representative in Northern Virginia, | | said the commission also had de- cided to require a deposit of 3 m‘n'.s | on bottles. The new regulation will not go into effect until May he | said, because the dairies sul ying | the Northern Virginia market must obtain bottles with lettering showing | a deposit is required. i The retail price of milk delivered to homes will not be affected. | The store sale price reduction was | forecast last month when the Milk ]Commission, during a hearing in Alexandria, heard representatives of both distributgrs and consumers agree that it would benefit the con- sumer without harming the pro- ducer. The commission also considered a proposal to reduce the price to 12 | cents per quart, but decided this would make too large a slash in the fstore operator's margin of profit. | The retailer then would receive only | & 1-cent profit per quart. Approval also was voiced at last | month's hearing for a bottle deposit | plan.

Stull, president of the Federation of Citizens’ Associations; | David Babp, secretary of the Fed- eration; A. J. Driscoll, Mid-City Association president, and others. The association, serving an area known as Sleepy Hollow because it | is centered around a natural bowl in | the section near Arkansas avenue, Delafield place and Thirteenth | street N.W. was for many years | a part of the Piney Branch civic| group. But last September, follow- | |ing a series of severe rainstorms | that flooded basements, streets and sidewalks, and caused thousands of | dollars of damage, a group of resi- dents met at the home of Hugh V. Keiser to discover a means of rem- edying the condition. An application was sent the Fed- eration requesting admission to membership. Saturday night Mr. Stull officially will install the first two delegates, for the Federation recently voted to receive the new group. | Singularly rapid success has been | attained in the flood problem. Late : last year, J. B.

At present, sections of Arkansas avenue are torn up by work on the Rock Creek sewer setup, which promises to prevent future floods in the area. Maj. Brown, as Principal guest speaker at, ‘he dinner, congratu- lated the District on its police force, although he said it was under- manned. “I have seen departments all over | the country and I think we have & force as good as any you will find anywhere,” he said. ‘“Unwelcome strangers come here and cause great | trouble.

PARIS, March 28.—The death of seven men aboard the 1,378-ton French destroyer La Railleuse in an unexplained explosion was disclosed by & French communique last night. (Stefani, Italian news agency, said the destroyer was broken in two by the blast as she was leav- ing Casablanca, Morocco, last Saturday and that 100 sailors were believed dead, injured or missing.) F. C. C. Moves Of Intercepted The Federal Communications Commission has ordered its inspec- tors throughout the country to in- vestigate all complaints of unau- thorized use of intercepted police short-wave messages. The com- mission plans to send to United States district attorneys for prose- cution all cases where it believes the law has been violated. The F. C. C. said it has been brought to its atténtion that cer- tain automobile repair men, ambu- lance operators and other unau- thorized persons are making s prac- tice of intercepting police short-wave radio messages, relating to automo- [y to Halt Use Police Calls bile accidents, crimes, etc., and using them for their own benefit, or for the benefit of others, with the result that police investigation of mis- | haps and crimes is being hampered. The matter recently has been be- fore the United States Suprefne Court, the commission said, and added it would appear from the court’s construction of clauses in the Communications Act that any per- son who intercepts a local intrastate message and divuiges its existence or uses it acts in violation of the act.

BALTIMORE, March 28.—Dean J. Locke, Capital Transit Co. engi- neer, told the State Public Service: Commission today that patronage “does not justify continued service” on four of his company’s bus lines in the Maryland suburbs of Wash- ington. Mr. Locke’s statement was made at a hearing before the commissiop on the traction concern’s applica- tion for permission to discontinue bus operations as of April 1 in the following dreas: In the Washington Sanitarium grounds and between Carroll and- Flower avenues in Takoma Park. In Takoma Park bus line through Sligo Valley. In East Silver Spring between the intersection of Sligo and Flower avenues and Clifton Park. In Burtonsville between . the Maryland-District line at Georgia avenue and Burtonsville, Md, by way of U. 8. route 29 and Maryland highway 196. Mr. Locke was the first to take the stand when the hearing began. G. Thomas Dunlop, transit company attorney, presented the witness without making an opening state- ment. Protestants Appear. In the chamber were protestants who had gathered to oppose the discontinuance of the bus routes. Among them was Blair Lee III, son of Maj. E. Brooke Lee of Silver Spring. Mr. Lee is deputy clerk to the Montgomery County com- missioners, and said he appeared as the representative of that body. Other protestants include Edgar| Parsley, representing Liberty Grove Grange; Alfred W. Noyes of Ken- sington and Phil Partridge of Bur- tonsville. Shortly before the commission convened, it received a telegram | from the Takoma Park Chamber of | Commerce declaring that the further development of the Takoma Park area is dependent upon the con- tinued operation of the buses. “® * * The board of directors of the Takoma Park Chamber of Com- merce,” the telegram read, “voted to 80 houses being built now with the prospect of several hundred more in the near future whose nearest trans- portation would be the Takoma Park | bus line operating through Sligo | Valley. Because of this fact, we rec- | ommend you consider this matter very seriously before permitting this | transportation service to be with- | drawn.” $1,366 Loss Cited. Mr. Locke told the commission his company lost $1,366 on the Burtons- ville bus line last year. The engineer | introduced statistics compiled from | traffic counts. Commissioner Stuart | Purcell interrupted the witness to | ask him if a majority of people who | use the buses are regular riders. “Apparently a majority of them are,” Mr. Locke replied. None of the protestants at the| hearing were represented by special | counsel. However, Joseph Sherbow, | people’s counsel for the Public Serv- ice Commission, was in attendance. | Navy Board to Consider New Civilian Pay Scale For the first time in 11 years, the Navy will convene a national wage | board this summer to make recom- | mendations to the Secretary of the Navy for the establishment of new rates of pay for civillans employed at the navy yards and air stations that will be in line with prevailing wage rates for similar work in private industry. Nominated to represent labor on the board are Jacob Baker, president of the United Federal Workers, C. 1. O. affiliate, and W. A. Calvin of the Metal Trades Department, A, F. of L. These selections must be rati- fled by the Secretary of the Navy.‘ who is the senior member of the| board. Other members are William | D. Bergman, administrative assist- | ant and chief clerk of the Navy De-j partment, and F. W. Dyer, chief of employe relations. Savs’ By FRED H. MORHART, Jr. The American aviation indust’y the first of this month had a backlog of 3,364 foreign military plane orders, valued at more than a quarter of a billion dollars, it was learned today. The majority of the orders are from France and Great Britain. With the War Department’s an- nouncement yesterday of a ltberal- ized policy of sales to the allies, it is expected the orders will be more than doubled immediately. To handle this huge jump in production in an orderly manner and to insure no breakdown of the manufacturing structure, representatives of most of the plane manufacturing companies were called here yesterday to make plans for co-operation with the War Department and the foreign pur- chasers. ‘The first of this month the British Empire had 1,363 undelivered plane orders in this country, valued at $100,298,000. The French had a slightly larger undelivered list of 1,371 planes, valued at $100,886,000. Undelivered Orders a Problem. One major question the manu- facturers are asking is what foreign governments will do with these un- delivered orders, now that the Gov- ernment has made available later types of light bombers, pursuit ships and interceptor planes for export. It is believed individual negotiations will be made in an effort to iron out any differences that may arise from the liberalized policy and the desire of foreign governments to get later types of planes than those already on order. More than 10,000 undelivered orders for plane engines are on hand, a tabulation shows. Their value is just short of $100,000,000. In addition there are orders for 9,330 propellers, costing $18,221,000, still unfilled. At the end of last year the British had ordered 1,749 planes and the French had asked for 2,043. In Janu- ary the British asked for 571 more and the French ordered 389 addi- tional ships. At the beginning of this month the British had received 699 ships and the French had delivery on 875 planes of various military types. 17,000 Planes a Year. American plane plants at present are on a production basis of 17,000 planes a year. Within a year, through foreign, Army and Navy orders, the production is expected to 8o into a mass production scale geared to 40,000 planes a year. A considerable portion of the expansion cost is expected to be paid by the allied commission here with a re- ported $1,000,000,000 for plane pur- chases. The tabulation shows that Sweden, now undergoing a stiff military ex- pansion program, has 295 unde- livered orders in the United States, valued at $21,708,000. That country also stands third in engine orders, which call for delivery of 446 motors valued at $4,311,000. The Latin American countries have & small undelivered order of 52 planes, valued at $3,848,000, in this country. It was explained that most of these were trainer type planes, and in general small ships. Canada, which has been getting rapid delivery from this country, as of the first of this month was only 12 planes behind on deliveries. These are valued at $883,000 However, the table shows that country is waiting on 144 engines, valued at $1,392,000. Miscellaneous orders from China, Turkey and other countries ac- counted for an additional 269 un- filled demands, the official chart showed. These are valued at $19,- 795,000. In this category were 514 | engines, valued at $5,968,000, and 444 | propellers, valued at $849,000. New Policy Studied. More than 40 representatives of the Government and plane manu- facturers gathered in the Procure- ment Division of the Treasury De- partment yesterday for an explana- tion of the new liberalized plane ex- | port policy. Capt. H. E. Collins, a member of the Interdepartmental Co-ordinating | Committee, explained the new policy. It was stated that all types of new | planes are released for roreignl purchase. It was added that release | would be made only after negotia- tions had been completed to the full | satisfaction of the War Department. | With the representatives of 14| manufacturing companies at the meeting were Brig. Gen. George H. | Brett, assistant chief of the Army Air Corps; Rear Admiral John H. Towers, | chief of the Naval Air Corps, and Col. | |John H. Jouett, president of the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce. | ‘Roosevelf fo Confer | With Budget Chief On Relief Needs Also May Renew Talks On Governmental Reorganization Plans President Roosevelt today planned a second conference with Budget Director Harold D. Smith on esti- mated relief needs for the next fis- cal year. At the same time, it wa said the Chief Executive also may renew discussions concerning forth- | coming governmental reorganiza- tion plans. Mr. Roosevelt stayed away from his executive offices again today, lest he repeat the mistake of overtaxing himself before fully recovering from a cold. His temperature is down | to normal. | The President yesterday saw Mr. | Smith, Wrok Projects Commissioner F. C. Harrington and Federal Works | Administrator John M. Carmody. | | After their meeting, it was an-| nounced that Col. Harrington will| | submit the administration relief es- | timates to a House Appropriations | Subcommittee next week, with at| least $1,000,000,000 dikely to be| | sought. | Although the relief figures have | inot yet been put into final form,| it was said the President might seek | to speed up completion of remain- ing reorganization plans by bringing that problem into today’'s confer- ences. Both inter- and intra-de- partmental transfer still are being contemplated for the remaining re- organization program. Only two other formal appoint- ments were announced for Mr. Roosevelt this morning, one with Herbert C. Pell, Minister to Portu- gal, and the other with Federal Loan Administrator Jesse H. Jones.
