MRS. RANDLE GUILTY OF MANSLAUGHTER

ANNAPOLIS, Md, May 21 (U.| P).—Helen Eileen Randle today | faced a maximum of 10 years imprisonment or a minimum of $500 fine for manslaughter in the drawing room shooting of a 17-year-old high school boy who allegedly supported insinuations of her socialite husband that she had been a “midshipman'’s prostitute.” A 12-man jury deliberated two) hours and returned the verdict last; night. Under Maryland law, manslaughter is punishable by penitentiary terms of from two to 10! years, at the discretion of the court. | But Judge Ridgely P. Melvin, who | plans to sentence Mrs. Randle next | Tuesday, may suspend sentence and | impose a minimum fine cf $500. Mrs. Randle was indicted for first degree murder, punishable by death by hanging in Maryland. Mrs. Randle, 31 years old and comely, dropped her air of unconcern when the verdict was read. The hands, which she said the high school boy, Allen Willey, described as “dishpan hands,” covered her face. Prior to the-verdict she had sobbed that she had only intended to frighten Willey when she held a 22 rifle against his abdomen in the drawing room of her husband's Bay Ridge mansion.

75 F Pet orgiveness Favored

As Pay-as-Go Compromise

WASHINGTON, May 21 (U. P). —The senate-house conference on pay-as-you-go taxes was reported today to be headed toward a compromise along the lines of the 75 per cent forgiveness proposal of Senator Walter F. George (D. Gal). Although conference members declined to disclose details of yesterday's day-long discussions, one member expressed belief that such a compromise is “highly probable.” “It seems to be a matter of forgiving somewhere between 50 and 100 per cent of one year’s taxes,” he reported. “It also looks like any forgiveness will have to be on a horizontal basis, with an equal percentage for all wage brackets. Mr. George's proposal has that provision and its 75 per cent figure meets the matter half way.” George favors forgiving 7 per cent of one year's taxes for every individual taxpayer and spreading

payment of the remaining 25 per cent over two years, putting everybody on a current basis by March 15, 1945. Statements by leaders of both house and senate conferees appeared to dissipate earlier hints of a deadlock.

Chairman Robert L. Doughton (D. N. C.) of the house ways and means committee, said: “We're getting along as well as could be expected. We've got a tough job but we're all determined to do it.” Mr. George, chairman of the senate finance committee, reported: “There is a very strong disposition on the part of both the majority and minority of both houses to reach some agreement.”
