The Senate was thrown into an up
roar yesterday when Senator IIeflin,
Democrat, Alabama, was assailed by
half a dozen Senators simultaneously
for his position on Muscle Shoals.
Standing at bay, the Alabama Sen.
ator fought back in characteristic
manner, and during the sharp repartee
the galleries and Senate floor rocked
from laughter. Senator Blease, Demo
crat, South Carolina, happened to be
presiding at the time, and when re-
peated hammering of the gave1 failed
to bring order he stopped the debate
and shouted:
"If the galleries don't keep quiet ]
will have the sergeant-at-arms put you
out"
While the verbal foray was at its
height Senator Caraway, Democrat,
Arkansas, who had been walking
about the chamber making vocal
thrusts at the debaters, went over to
Senator Heflin's desk and picked up
the Alabama Senator's notes on his
speech and put them in his pocket.
AS he walked away with the notes, he
remarked in an undertone: Il hope
that will stop his speech"
But it didn't. Senator Hefiin, who
had become aroused at the accusa-
tions of the opponents to the reso-
luton, arose to great heights Of ora
tory.
The discussion started when Sena-
tor Hef1in again charged a group of
Southern Senators with reversing
their position on Muscle Shoals by
failing to support the resolution
which Incorporated the provisions of
Henry Ford's bid, which they in
dorsed a few years ago.
who Is going to get Muscle
Shoals under this resolution?" asked
Senator Caraway.
II don't know" replied Senator
Heflin. But 1 want somebody to
get it under the same terms as we
would have given 1t to Henry Ford. .
Senator Caraway accused Senator
Hefiin of trying to turn Muscle
Shoals over to some unknown person
under any terms which the lessee
wished. He declared that once con.
tract was drawn by the proposed
joint congressional committee ii
would have to be adopted by Con
gress or else Congress would be put
in the ridiculous position of cringing
before this lessee and whining around
him to make a change"
That is not the situation" shouted
Senator Heflin. Il want the commit
tee to bring their recommendations
before this Congress and let Congress
pick them to pieces If they can"

sons all relevant or useful informa.
ton. 1t was generally agreed that
the indiscriminate publishing of all
income tax returns Of individuals and
corporations was neither relevant nor
useful.
Both in Congress and at the Treas
ury Department the newspapers of
the country, in publishing the returns
during the past two years, are given
credit for bringing about saner view
of the subject and of sealing probably
for CA time the returns from curious
and prying eyes.
If the newspapers had merely pub.
lished a few of the larger returns,
holding certain persons up to invidi-
Gus distinctions and comparisons, the
result might not have been so good
The papers Of the country did the
proper thing by publishing virtually
all the returns made. This carrying
out Of the law to its logical>conclusion
appeared to arouse public sentiment
and to direct it into the proper chan
nels.
Change of Heart Manifested.
When the first list was published
two years ago, causing a nationwide
sensation, there was much glee on
Capitol Hill. Certain senators and
representatives rushed into print with
statements that a great good had
been accomplished by the publicity
provisions Of the law, and that there
never would be a repeal of the provi-
sions. By the time the second year
lists were published, however, there
was apparent a change of heart on
the legislative hill, and while there
were few die-hards on the publicity
clauses, there never was a chance
that they would be re-enacted in the
new bill.

Galleries Roar With Merriment

The Georgia Senator declared he
was opposed to the Ford offer and
was opposed to turning Muscle Shoals
over to any private corporation under
the blind" of helping the farmers.
He declared he did not believe farm
ers would get fertilizer any cheaper
from Muscle Shoals than they would
from private fertilizer manufacturers.
He said he opposed letting a corpora
tion have Muscle Shoals to make fer
tilizer at a loss and make up the
profit on the sale of power.
Senator Heflin declared he favored
letting the operator make his profit
on power and letting the farmers
get the benefit Of cheap fertilizer.
Then you had better pay the
fertilizer trust an outright subsidy"
Senator George retorted. "Why turn
this great property over to them. If
you want a subsidy at Muscle Shoals
then have the courage to say So"
Senators Smith, South Carolina
Copeland, New York. and others afSo

There is to be publicity of the in
come tax after all. However, there
need be no undue alarm. The new
law merely directs all collectors tC
prepare and make available for in
spection a list of all persons making
income tax returns. The amounts
paid by each individual will remain a
deep and dark secret. The Paul Prys
may still call at the office and see if
so-and-so made a return, but their
joy during the past two years of
finding out just how much each
neighbor, friend1or enemy contributed
to the Government is at an end, prob
ably for all time.
Persons Entitled to Know.
Under the new law the income tax
returns are available only to the fol.
lowing authorized persons:
The President of the United States.
The ways and means committee of
the House.
The finance committee of the SEN
ate.
Any special or select committee
named by Congress to inquire into the
income tax.
The returns of corporations alone
may be revealed to:
The proper officers of any State,
on the request of the governor of the
State.
All bona-flde shareholders of a par
ticular corporation. provided they own
at least one per cent Of the stock of
the corporation.
1t is specifically provided in the law,
however, that when shareholders
learn the income of a corporation they
must not divulge the information in
any way not authorized by law, under
penalty Of a fine of $1,000.
Aim in View by Congress.
In framing the new tax law the

CRYSTAL SET POPULAR.
Still Predominating Type in Brit
ish Isles.

The radio crystal receiving set,
which confines reception mainly to the
nearest broadcasting station, still is
the predominant type used in the
British Isles.
OF the 100000 British receivers,
Commerce Department figures show
that abou: 10 per cent are crystal sets.
THE British government has shown
some hesitancy in adding to its pres
ent number of broadcasting stations,
because OF the possible effect on these
sets.
Present Indications are that the
British Broadcasting Campany, which.
conducts all broadcastinG in Great

hrnment, probably will be bought by

are receiving advanced education and
their degrees, thereby bringing about
a competent and highly trained
teaching staff in the Catholic schools

He deplored the Catholic foundation
plan advanced by some. This plan.
he explained, would create a Catholic
college near the State universities and
as constituent part of these univer
sites. He declared this would not be
true Catholic education, as the stu
dents would still be brought into con-
tact with socialistic texts and teach
tngs. He explained that Catholic edu-
cation did not mean a teaching of
secular education plus religious in.
struction, but that it also meant the
elimination of immoral textbooks and
teachings that are immoral, irreligious
and not of Catholic standards.
Rev. DIR. James II. Ryan opposed
