MIAMI, Fla, February 21.-Repre-
sentation on q commission to be ap-
pointed by President-elect Hoover to
study the prohibition situation will be
asked by the American Federation OF
Labor, 1T was indicated yesterday when
the executive council of the organization
approved the request of Albert Kulger
of Cincinnati that President William
Green ask Mr. Hoover for such recog-
milton,
Besides discussing such representa-
ton the council, meeting in extended
session here, has considered legislation
for the Inauguration of a clearing
house" for the prevention of unemploy-
ment and for restriction of immigration
Among protests to wage cuts already
taken by the council was one voted
yesterday deploring the recent action of
the American Sheet g. Tin Plate Co.
of Elwood. Ind, which reduced wages
of its employees to 10 per cent.
Suspension of immigration for a
period of 10 years and Inauguration by
the Government of surplus public
building fund of $15,000,00O for the
alienation of unemployment in periods
of industrial depression were discussed
yesterday by the council.
immigration suspension, council
members said, seemed the most logical
means of relieving unemployment re-
sulting from a 20 to as year age dead
line" for workers seeking to gain new
positions.
Regulation of working hours through
the day and week also was given con-
sideration by the council as a means
of decreasing unemployment to some
extent.

YOUR INCOME TAX.
No. Is.

Increase in the value of prop
erty accruing before March |,
1918, is not taxable, even though
1t was realized after that date.
The reason is that the constitu-
tional amendment authorizing
Congress to tax incomes of in
dividuals became effective as of
March /, 1918. The revenue act
of 1928 contains provisions for
determining the gain or loss on
the sale or other disposition OF
property acquired by purchase
before March /, 1913. The basis
provided is the cost Of such prop
erty or the fair market value as
Of March /, 1913, whichever is
greater. For example, a tax
payer bought In 1910 property
for which he paid $4,000. The
value on March /, 1913, was
$4,000. He sold 1t in 1928 for
$4,000. The March /, 1918, val
lie being greater than the cost
of the property, the taxable gain
is figured on that basis and
amounts to $4,000.
A taxpayer bought in 1910
property for which he PAID
$4,000. Its value on March /
1918, was $500, and in 1928 he
sold it for $4,000. In this ex-
ample the taxpayer bases his loss
on the March /, 1913, value,
which was greater than the cost,
and the deductible loss is $500.

flashed by bank officials and the agents
then discovered the place where she had
been living.
Night and day the agents kept her
under surveillance. She apparently was
not employed, for she went on several
shopping expeditions during the, day
and the agents were with her, but she
did not know it.
While in Chicago Mrs. Blalock also
kept in close touch with the develop
mentS in the Burlingame case in Wash
ington through the newspapers. She
was often observed by the Department
of Justice agents buying the Washing
ton newspapers and scanning the front
pages with nervous anxiety.
When Mrs. Blalock returns to Wash
ington she will be accompanied by at
least two agents of the Department of
Justice, for the headquarters Office has
promised to give her all the protection
she needs. In her affidavit she said she
was afraid that an attempt would be
made on her life if she came back to
face Burlingame.
No effort will be made to take Mrs.
Blalock into custody upon her return.
She will be permitted to go wherever
she chooses, and 1t Is believed she will
go to the home of one of her friends
or relatives here. She has one son 81
years of age living here, and the police
think she will make her first visit to his
home, since all of the furnishings at
her former residence on upper Seventh
street were moved away several weeks
ago.
Board Members Meet.
The three members and three alter
mates of the Burlingame trial board
met today in the Office of Mai. Donald
A. Dawson, chairman, and discussed in
detail the procedure to be followed at
the trial. After the conference Mai.
Dawson said that the board will not
ask for any legal assistance in conduct
ing the trial. When legal questions
come up, he said, such as the proposed
exclusion of certain lines of testimony,
the board will confer and rule on the
question forthwith.
If the question is border line" one,
the board will order the room cleared
and then decide whether to allow it or
not. Then 1t will summon the specta-
tors back and announce the decision.
This Is a fact-finding board" Mai
Dawson said, land we do not expect to
be tied up much with legal difficulties.
None OF the members of the board is a
lawyer or man of legal training. but
we do not believe that it will handicap
us in the work we have to do. 1t ought
not to be difficult to develop the facts
in such a case as this.
The members of the board agreed to
report II the trial room IN the sixth
precinct station at GAS o'clock Satur-
day morning, as Maj. Dawson explained
it 80 as to be able to get to our seats
before the crowd is too dense"
Corporation Counsel Bride also con-
ferred today with Assistant Corporation
Counsel Walter L. Fowler and the regu-
lar trial board prosecutor, who will assist
aim at the Burlingame trial. Except for
a few minor details yet to be worked
out, those charged with the police Of
