Fiscal
'Continued From First Page.)
quests was, “If you hold that the in
crease is authorized (for the em
ployes whose status wras in ques
tion), please advise the Commis
sioners of the source of revenues to
meet these obligations.”
In response, the Acting Control
ler General said: “The question
would not appear to involve a mat
ter which this office is either au
thorized or required by law to
answer.”
Budget Officer Walter Fowler
said it would cost the District $122.
430 to meet the pay raises for the
371 employes in the "outside" agen
cies whose status is still undecided.
He broke the cost of the increases
down as follows:
Commission on Mental Health,
five employes. $1,650: National
Guard. 14 employes. $4,620: National
Capital parks, 164 employes, $54,120;
probation system. 16 employes.
$5,280: register of wills, 41 em
ployes, $1.3,530. and the recorder of
deeds, 61 employes, $20,130.
Water Rent Receipts Available.
Mr. Fowler said it would cost the
District $23,100 to grant pay in
creases to the 70 employes at the
Washington Aqueduct but that such
raises would present no problem
since their salaries are paid by re
ceipts from W'ater rents.
The Star was told reliably yester
day that the Controller General’s
office will rule that the 164 employes
of National Capital parks are eligi
ble for the pay raise. The raises
have already been authorized by
Controller General's decisions for
134 employes of the National Zoo
logical Park and 15 National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
emnloyes.
In asking the Controller General's
decision on the pay raise situation,
the Commissioners declared, “The
obligation of the District will exceed
the anticipated revenue for the fiscal
year 1949 unless additional tax legi
slation is enacted. There are over
500 employes of the District who are
paid solely from grants from the
Social Security Administration and
the United States Public Health
Service.”
187 Denied Raises.
There are 187 of these denied
the pay raise today. They Include
21 tuberculosis control workers:
2 in cancer research; 5 in mental
health activities; 16 in public health
work; 49 in venereal disease con
trol; 51 in maternal and child
health services, and 43 in crippled
children’s services. Also excluded
were 81 employes paid through mis
cellaneous trust fund deposits and
185 on the payroll of the Unemploy
ment Compensation Board.
The GAO decision points out that
the act of Congress authorizing the
Federal pay raise was so worded tc
prevent a deficiency in the revenue;
of the District.
It specifically states, the GAO de
cision declared, that the provision;
of the pay act granting an in
crease in compensation to employe;
of the United States and of the
District of Columbia "shall nol
apply to any employe in or undei
the municipal government of the
District of Columbia prior to the
time that legislation providing ade
quate revenues to meet the obliga
tion is enacted by Congress."
The pay act does not provide
that the source of the compensa
tion shall be considered as control
ling whether or not the pay raisi
should be granted to employes ir
or under the District government oi
nbt, the ruling declared.

House Recess Kills
Public Housing Bill,
Supporters Declare
Only emergency housing legis
lation, if any at all. seemed in
sight today in the special ses
sion of Congress.
This was the view of housing
backers w’ho said that hope for
congressional action in the special
session on-the long-range housing
program provided for in the Senate
passed Taft-Ellender-Wagner bill
was virtually killed by the three
day recess taken by the House
| yesterday.
The T.-E.-W. housing program
was one of the major points in the
legislative program President Tru
man recommended to the special
session.
The House recess until Monday
blocked any chance of getting the
long-range housing bill, with public
housing features, brought to the
House floor before August 23. Con
gressional leaders plan to adjourn
j the special session before that date,
'probably by August 15.
Petition Needs 63 Names.
The House Rules Committee has
refused for months to clear the
legislation. It can be brought up
; for action without Rules Committee
approval provided 218 members sign
ja discharge petition. .
Representative Helen Gahagan
Douglas, Democrat, of California,
; .said she lacked only 63 of the nec
essary signers of the discharge pe
tition. But it would require at
least twb weeks, perhaps longer,
under the House parliamentary
rules to get consideration of the bill
after all the signatures are obtained,
and no action is possible unless the
| Republican leaders hold Congress in
session longer than they now plan.
! "I believe the Republican leader
ship is deliberately setting the date
j for adjournment In fear that we
will complete the housing discharge
! petition." Mr. Douglas said.
It Is regarded as possible that
some sort of emergency housing leg
islation will be passed while the
long-range bill is passed over.
Lenient Guarantees Suggested.
| One suggested piece of 'legists
| tion would renew Title 6 of the Na
! tional Housing Act to provide “very
! lenient” guarantees to builders of
rental and other types of housing
insured by the Federal Housing Ad
ministration. This section of the
act expired April 30.
Another emergency course on
housing would be to modify Title 2
of the Housing Act. This provides
less lenient terms for loans to aid
large site operations and rental
construction.
With the expiration of Title 6,
many operators have turned to Title
2 for assistance in their building
enterprises. But housing officials
say that a big drop in rental con
truction is almost sure if easier loan
provisions are not passed by Con
gress. So far. the commitments
made under Title 6 before it expired
have helped maintain a high level
of such construction.
Renewal and extension of loan
provisions of the housing act have
the backing of the real estate and
building interests.
But supporters of the long-range
housing program are not agreed on
passage of emergency legislation
alone. They contend it would be
inflationary without the compensat
ing features of the long-range pro
gram.

elections to be held in a Soviet
occupied country. As a result, he
succeeded Bela Miklos as premier.
Republic Proclaimed.
Hungary was proclaimed a re
public in February, 1946, and Tildy;
became its first President. From:
that time forward he was on a hot
spot. Often, Communist moves to
get rid of him were reported. Their
chance came in May, 1947.
The Communist' raised a hue
and cry over a plot against the
republic, which they alleged was
hatched by Mr. Nagy and other
Smallholders. The Soviet army oi
occupation stood by in the back
ground.
Mr. Nagy, visiting Switzerland,
resigned. Lajos DinnyeS, a luke
warm Smallholder of Leftist lean-,
ings, moved into the premiership
The Communists obliged Mr. Tildy
to dissolve Parliament by decree in
July. New elections were ordered
for August.
In exile, Mr. Nagy declared Mr.
Tildy was remaining as titular head
of the country only because of Com
munist threats. He said Mr. Tildy
was threatened with expulsion to
Soviet Russia. Mr. Tildy later de
nied this, but an associate in Buda
pest said the denial was dictated
by the Russians themselves.
Election rrotesteo.
In the August 31 elections, the
Communists emerged as the strong-1
est single party. Other parties pro
tested the election. The Social Dem
oct ats charged that 17 of their 21,
leaders had been summoned before
the Russian commander in Hun
gary when several of them threat
ened to air their protest publicly.
The Social Democrats had charged
that almost 200.000 of their active
members had been disenfranchised
before the elections.
The British Foreign Office, report
ing on the election, said it had been
i “fairer than we feared, but not as
fair as we had hoped.” The Hun
garian government itself, through
the Information Ministry, admitted
irregularities, but said ther had
been “only 20,000” fradulent votes.
The new parliament was convened
September 16 wholly dominated by
i the Communists. Mr. Tildy told the
deputies his government would hold
a foreign policy oriented with Mos
cow.

k
25% 'Emergency' Rise
In Freight Rates Is
Made Permanent
By th* Associated Press
A (1,535,000,000 “emergency” addi
tion to the Nation’s freight bill be
came permanent today.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission late yesterday removed the
“temporary” label from the 25 per
cent rate increases it has granted
since last October. It authorized the
railroads, domestic water carriers
and freight forwarders to weave the
boosts into their permanent inter,
state rate structure.
The order represented final action
on the railroads’ plea for a perma
nent 30 per cent advance in freight
rates to meet higher wages and
other increased operating costs. In
making the “emergency” advances
permanent, the ICC denied the addi
tional 5 per cent which- had been
asked for long-term application.
The temporary increases, how
ever, included set ceilings for a long
list of specified commodities which
were revised in the final order, some
up. some down. The commission
said the net result would be to give
the railroads about $65,200,000 more
annual revenue than they are now
receiving.
As examples, protective service
charges—for such things as re
frigeration and heating—will be!
allowed to advance another 5 per
cent; freight rates on iron, steel
and related products may rise an
other 2 cents per 100 pounds and
coal another 10 to 20 cents per ton.
But rates on citrus fruits must come
down 2 cents per 100 and brick 3
cents per 100.
The commission noted that with
its new action, the total increase in
freight charges since June 30, 1946,
will amount to about $2,550,000,000
a yeai— an advance of about 44 per
cent.
The estimates were based on the
assumption that the various States,
as usual, will follow the lead of the
Federal commission, and apply the
interstate rates to within-State
traffic.
President Writing
Speech Aboard Yacht
President Truman is taking a brief
rest aboard the yacht Williamsburg
today and working on the speech he
will deliver tomorrow at 3 p.m. at
the dedication of Ialewild Airport
in New York. He boarded the yacht
shortly before dinner last night.
The Williamsburg will probably
cruise overnight to Quantico and re
turn to the Capital about 10 a.m.
tomorrow.
Mr. Truman will fly to New York
at 1:15 p.m. tomorrow. After the
New York exercises he will fly to
Missouri to vote in the primary next
week.
Press Secretary Charles G. Ross
said he had heard nothing about a
presidential plan to make a series
of fireside campaign talks as report
ed by a New York paper today.
Planes from Andrews Field and
the District National Air Guard will
take part in the mammoth aerial
parade of Air Force, Navy and;
Marine planes marking the open
ing of the Idlewild Airport.
Six F-80 Shooting Star jet fight
er planes from Andrews Field will j
escort the presidential plane In-;
dependence.
Thirty-six other Shooting Stars
from Andrews Field will lead the
air parade of 1,000 planes to begin
at 3 p.m. Also in the parade will
be 24 F-47 fighters from the Dis
trict National Guard's 121st Fighter
Squadron, heading the 176 Guard
planes in the show.
Fennell's Nomination
Again Goes to Senate
President Truman sent to the
Senate again today the nomination
of Judge Aubrey B. Fennell for a
10-year term as a member of the
Municipal Court of Appeals. The
nomination first was sent to the
Senate less than 60 days ago but no
action was taken on it before Con
gress adjourned.
The nomination was sent to the
Senate despite a decision By the
Republican congressional high com
mand not to consider any appoint
ments at this session.
Judge Fennell's position thus be
comes identical with that of Edward
A. Tamm, former assistant to FBI
Director J. Edgar Hoover, whose
name has twice been sent to the
Senate for confirmation as an asso
ciate justice of District Court.
On June 15, the Senate District
Committee tabled the nomination
of Judge Fennell because a Wash
ington attorney protested he was
"disagreeable” to attorneys who ap
peared before him. Judge Fennell
was strongly indorsed by the Dis
trict Bar Association, however.
He will continue to serve until
confirmed or until a successor is
qualified.
Judge Fennell is a graduate of
George Washington Law School,
was named to the Municipal bench
in 1942.__

Miss Swarthout Toys With Idea
Of Movina to Washinaton
Washington's heat has become a
breeze for Soprano Gladys Swarth
out, who sings at the Water Gate
concert tonight.
She owes it all to her fans. Not
the kind who applaud but the ones
found in costume trunks.
This came out yesterday after
noon at an interview in her Raleigh
Hotel suite. There she was, cool and
unruffled, waving a fan and ex
plaining that it was a very handy
prop from the opera “Carmen.”
Miss Swarthout is a very widely
traveled young woman with a
specialty for Washington, visiting
here about four times a year. She’s
beginning to think it would be easier
living here than commuting from
New York.
“Why not?” added her husband,
Maj. Frank Chapman. “Look at all
the packing we'd save, and we can
always get a house in Chevy Chase
or somewhere near the Water
Gate.”
On the program there tonight,
which Is the last of the season,
Miss Swarthout will sing the aria
"Ancella” irom Cilea's "Adriane
Lecouvreur,” for the first time in
Washington. She also has scheduled
excerpts from Saint-Saens’ "Samson
et Delila” and several other selec
tions from Charles, Work, Massenet
and Poulenc.
In addition the program includes
ProkoflefT s “Classical Symphony in
D. Major”; Sibelius’ “Finlandia” ana
Jerome Kern's scenario from "Show
Boat,” also for the first time here.
The concert starts at 8:15 o’clock
and marks the first appearance of

Final Arguments Due
After Mrs. Emmart
Testifies in Slaying
By th« Associated Press
WOODSTOCK, Va„ July 30.—
Testimony in the trial of Mrs. Julia
E. Emmart, 45. charged with killing
her husband, neared a close today
with arguments expected before
night.
Mrs. Emmart took the stand yes
terday to answer a charge of mur
dering her husband. George A. Em
mart, 45, in his Strasburg drug
store August 30. Mr. Emmart is a
former manager of a Peoples Drug
Store and the Beverly Pharmacy in
Alexandria.
Her brother, John Guard, Arling
ton insurance agent, also testified
that in the months preceding the
shooting, Mrs. Emmart visited his
home and “she looked like a physi
cal wreck, utterly dejected.”
Describes “Affair.’*
Mrs. Emmart, through testimony
and cross examination, told of the
break-up of her home and married
life because of what she declared
to be an affair between her husband
and Mrs. Agnes Crabill, a divorcee.
Suspicions she had entertained
for several months came to a head,
Mrs. Emmart testified, in February
of 1946, when Mrs. Crabill was at
the Emmart home.
Mr. Emmart was downstairs at
the time, she said, and she herself
was changing clothes. When she
walked into her bedroom, Mrs. Em
mart declared, she saw Mrs. Crabill
pick up her husband's photograph
and kiss it.
"I cannot describe those feelings.”
she said. “It was a death sentence.”
Husband Asked Divorce.
Sometime between March and
May of 1947, she declared, she
caught her husband and Mrs. Cra
bill in a compromising position at
night in the rear of Mr. Emmart’s
drug store. She was hiding in the
back stock room and saw them at
the time, she said.
Later on, Mrs. Emmart testified,
she asked her husband about it,
and he slapped her. From then on,
he began asking her to get a divorce,
which she-refused to do, she said.
Her recollection of events faded
out on August 28, two days before
the shooting, she said, and she
couldn't remember anything from
then until several days later, when
she found herself in jail being held
for murder.

Siliform Injections
Termed Dangerous
9 By the Associated Press
The Federal Food and Drug Ad
ministration declared yesterday that
“siliform ampuls,” an injection drug
made by the Heilkraft Medical Oo, of
Dorchester. Mass., Js “potentially
dangerous,” and urged druggists and

drug should be sterile, samples col

organisms. Siliform is injected by
some physicians and osteopaths in
the belief it will relieve patients
suffering from rheumatism, the
Food and Drug Administration said.
