DEFEAT THREATENS
SALES TAX SCHEME:

Washington. May 30.-Lines have
been sharply drawn in the sales tax
controversy as result of the hear
ings which have just been conclud-
ed before the senate finance COM
mittee.
More than a score of Organiza-
tions, many of them representing
powerful interests, were represented
before the committee in support of
the proposed one per cent turnover
tax. Nearly as many organizations
indicted their unwavering opposi-
tion.
Supporters OF fire safes tsN n
cluded manufacturers. bankers,
large retail interests and those af-
fected by the special excise taxes
in the present law. Opponents of
the sales tax inclnded few busi-
ness organizations, the National
Lumbermna' S Association and the
National Association of Creditmen,
and organizations of public utili-
ties companies, but the strongest OPP
position practically came from labor
and agriculture. The labor and
farm organizations are lined up sol
idly against the sales tax.
The opposition OF labor and agri-
culture, coupled with the fact that
thair ,,ncition has hpap haclypd hy
most of the economists and tax ex-
perts who have appeared before the
committee. has caused advocates OF
the sales tax in Congress 10 admit
there is scarcely any hope of its APP
prevail at this time.
Present indications are that the
revision OF revenue laws will follow
in large measurs the recommends

tions of secretary of Treasury of
Mellon. This will mean the repeal
of the excess profits tax and the
substitution of an additional flat
tax of five per cent on corporations
earnings on top OF the present 10
per cent normal tax. The present
exemption of $4,000 on corporation
earnings will be eliminated.
Advocates OF the sales tax appear
to have failed to conceive members
of the senate committee that the
sales tax can be made substitute
for the excess profits tax. AS the
issue has developed the sales tax
has been put forward chiefly as a
substitute for all the present mis-
cellaneous excise taxes.
Sentiments OF the experts have
turned against the distributed earn
ings of corporations. however, there
is not likely to be much further dis
cussion or proposals.
There is little question but that
the higher surtaX rates on individual
industries will be reduced from the
present maximum OF 65 per cent to
not more than 40 per cent. Some
of the farmers organizations object
to any reduction at all Just as they
object to the repeal OF the excess
profits tax. The farm organizations,
however. will be we'll pleased if they
succeed in killing the sales tax and
are not expected to bubble over the
substitution of an increased corpor
alton tax for the excess profits tax
or the reduction OF the higher sur
tax rates.
There is widespread sentiment for
the repeal OF the transportation
taxes but Secretary Mellon has said
that the government could not very
well do without these taxes which
bring in a revenue OF nearly $500
900, O00 year
Not only will most of the present
miscellaneous taxes he retained but
it probably will be necessary to in

May Be Made 0ne-Man Job.

The apparent ease and dispatch
with which thoroughly expert

ply without assistance big pneumatic
truck tires is evidence that there
is knack to il that is worth the
attention of those who own or
operate trucks.
In the following paragraphs an
expert points out briefly how hand

one-man job.
To dismount the tire and rim
from the wheel, jack up the wheel
until the tire freely clears The
ground loosen the tire bolts, and
wheel so thai the sector containing
the valve is near the ground. With
both hands grasp the tire and
rim at points just below the level
Of the hub. and quickly lift and
pull the rim away from the top OF
the wheel. At the same time watch
the valve to make sure that it does
not bend in the felloe when the
rim slides off the felloe band.
If properly performed this method
Of dismounting the tire and rim
from the wheel requires very little
lifting, and causes no damage to
the valve or the tube at the valve
base
To detach the tire from the rim,
lay the tire on evel ground, locking
ring side up, remove the valve
plunger to complete deflation and
push back the valve stein inside
the rim. Remove locking and side
rings, loosen flap all around and.
standing inside of the rim. lift the
tire straight up off the rim.
When the tire is ready for re-
placement on the rim, reverse the
operations of detaching the time
from the rim with tube flap in
place and valve stem pushed bsck,
flush with base OF flap. drop the
tire carefully over the rim, taking

Finally in applying the rim and
tire to the wheel, engage the valve

the tire, rim and wheel until the
