GERMAN FOREIGN
TRADE SUFFERS
BADLY IN 1920

merce that the United States is in re-
markable position for development of its
world trade and it thinks the Hamburg
American ine-Harriman shipping ar
rangement has placed Germany in n po-
sition to obtain some share of the ex-
panding business.
German commerce with the South
American countries is reported to be vir-
tually at standstill.
American Blacklist Felt
The effect of the American blacklist on
German goods is seen in neutral coun-
tries of South America, where, according
to the report, German firms are finding
it almost impossible to resume business.
German prices, which are described as
too high, are declared to have adversely
affected trade, particularly in Colombia.
where most buyers who contracted with
German firms cancelled their orders in
favor of the Americans.
The report regrets destruction of Ger
man business in the Philippines by "for
chile appropriation of German property"
It expects the American government will
pay for this promptly directly to Ger
man owners.

American Insurance Syn

by Anti I rust Laws.

Washington. Dec. 26.-Repeal of stats
antitrust laws to legalize the newly
created American marine insurance syn
dicates IS urged in report made public
Sunday by the house committee on mer-
chant marine and fisheries and the
shipping board.
The report, which was prepared by DR..
S. S. Huebner, insurance expert of the
committee and the board. attacks legis-
lative disabilities imposed by state stat
utes on the development of American
insurance for American ships and rec
ommends a more liberal treatment of
American companies in the matter OF
taxation and legal restrictions.
Existing state statutes regulating
marine insurance represents provincial
treatment of an international business

medal measures to put American marine
insurance on a par with foreign under

TAX LAW REVISION
CALL FOR DROP Of
OVER S1,000,0O0
Repeal Excess Profits, Cut Sur
tax; Levy Business on
Preceding Year.

New York, Dec. 26-Recommenda-
tions for radical revision of the federal
tax laws, calling for curtailment of
more than one billion dollars year,
were made public Sunday by the tax
committee of the national industrial con-
ference board.
The report, expressing the opinion of
only the committeeman themselves, will
be submitted as basis for discussion Of
the third national industrial tax confer
ence which viii convene here January
21-22.
The report Of the committee presents
the following recommendations, which
would reduce federal revenue:
Abolish Excess Profits.
Repeal of the excess profit tax, which
would diminish the federal taxes to the
extent OF 5000. 100000 year. y
Reduction of surtax rates, which would
entail loss of $500, 900 600 annually.
A provision that business losses for
income derived during the succeeding
year or the preceding year. if the in
come of the succeeding year is insuffie
lent, which would curtail taxes S5o,O00,-
Sale Tax Opposed.
The committee opposed sale or turn
over tax in the recommendations for re-
medal changes. These changes. the re-
port stated, would have but little effect
on the gross revenue derived from tax
alton. The committee declared in its
report that the proposal for an excise
tax on the privilege of holding land and
natural resources is uusound.
Sincere aud vigorous retrenchment in
public expenditures must stand behind
any tax system aimed to work perma
nent public improvement" the report
said.
Cooperation Urged.
The report calls on the business men
to act together to remedy Il situation
that the committee believes to be work
ing private injustice and public harm.
Business agreement will accomplish
public benefit" the report states, but
business disagreements on this important
subject will merely intensity and multiply
the injurious factors Of bad situation

Leader Of Drug Addicts

New York, Dec. 26.-"Monk"
Eastman, once leader of a no.
torious gang that terrorized the
lower East side, a convicted
felon, but restored to citizenship
as reward for heroism as a
soldier in the great war, was
slain shortly before daybreak
Sunday by "some one unknown.
Eastman's body, with five bullet
wounds, was found by policeman op

five empty shells.
Robbery Not Motive
In the dead mans pockets were S140,
a watch and chain, and a Christmas
card. Presence of the valuables indi-
Gated to the police that the killing of
Eastman probably was not part of the
prevailing crime wave. but the result Of
q vendetta.

was lurid even for underworld annals.

claimed to have traced score Of MUIR

gangsters operated. Their leader, how
ever. served terms for lesser crimes
burglary, smuggling of narcotics, and
disposing of stolen goods.
The last time Eastman appeared on
police records was in 1915 when he was
arrested, pleaded guilty to robbery and
was sentenced to two years in prison.
On his release in October. 1917, he en-
listed as a doughboy in the 106th In
fantry of the 9th division. He then
was 45 years old.
Lacked Citizenship
After the war he was honorably dis
charged, but lacked the rights of citizen
ship because he had been convicted Of
felony. Governor Smith, in restoring the
soldiers civic status, acted on the rec
concentrations of the regiments officers.
