If Opposed to Tax Injustice, Sign Here

To the Congress of the United States:

ture actors, singers, musicians and all the
other professional people are in the same
plight in the matter of earned income, as
distinguished from earnings on capital, and.
since they represent a great percentage OF
the citizenry of the country, we beg the
gravest consideration of this proposition.

Permission is hereby granted The Washing

said league for presentation Of our signatures
to the United States Congress for the stated
purpose.
The signer Is not obliged to make any kind
Of contribution or TO do anything except to
give his moral support to this movement.
The Washington times., 1929-03-27

We. the undersigned, respectfully urge that
the Congress Of the United States give imme-
diate consideration to the proposition that
there be a downward revision Of oil income
taxes on all earned incomes, such as salaries
or fees, or commissions for personal services.
We urge this because of the many instances
where wage or fee or commission earners
sometimes have just few years OF good
incomes, and prior to and after that period
have substantially less incomes. Their period
of better earnings which might give the aver
age wage Garner a chance to accumulate
some capital is heavily taxed and they seldom
have q new opportunity for the accumulation
of savings which might tend to make more
useful citizens Of them.

When the horses start racing on
Labor day at the Indiana State
Fair, it will be the first appearance
of Grand Circuit performers in &C
ton in the west since July, when
horses left Detroit for the eastern
tracks. Many changes in form have
come since that time; many devel-
opments have shown to make new
interest in the greatest of harness
racing.
There is almost an unprecedented
situation in the fact that every sin
gle event, both of early and late
closing has filled, and because the
races from the start to end are
dominated with the class of the
continent in trotters and peers,

Drivers-the best of the turf-will
engage in the events, and because Of
the splendid grade of the purses
offered there will be strenuous COM
petition.
The opening on Saturday will be

reached a dramatic pitch here to-
day as the gallery figured the
chances Of two southern California
women, a Kansas City mother, and
Buffalo girl still in her teens, in
the semi-f1nal round of the Wom-
ems Western golf championship.
Some had their finalists already
named in Mrs. Gregg Lifur of Los
Angeles and Mrs. o. S. Hill of
Kansas City. Others could see only
Peggy Wattles, youthful Buffalo star,
and Kathleen Wright, young Pasa-
dena player.
Mrs. Lifur was paired with Miss
Wright. making the top semi-final
battle an all-Pacif1c coast affair. In
the lower bracket Miss Wattles OPP
posed Mrs. Hill, whose qualifying
score of II last Monday gave her
medalist honors.
Mrs. Hill, of all the early out
standing favorites, alone remained
in the running One by one Mrs.
Leona Pressler of Los Angeles,
champion in 1927 and 1928; Mrs.
Harold Higbie of Detroit, Mrs. Lee
Mida of Chicago and Virginia Van
VIE and Virginia Wilson, also Chi
cagoans, were eliminated from the
title race.
Both Mrs. Hill and Miss Wright
were forced to play an extra hole
Thursday to win from Mrs. Higbie
and Rena Nelson, Chicago, respec-
lively.
In a see-saw battle with Bernice
Wall of Oshkosh, Wis, Miss Wattles
triumphed, l up. Mrs. Lifur was
hard put to bag a and l triumph
from Mrs. Mida, who had trounced
Mrs. Pressler, the defending cham
pion, the day previous.
