they advertised Secretary of Labor
J. J. Davis, Senator Brookhart, eX-
Governor Pinchot-and, of course,
William Green, together with an ex-
tensive musical program, in order
to get a crowd. The workers who
came got musical program,
speeches from several lesser lights
and from Senator Brookhart, the
only one advertised who showed up
to address the meeting.
Due to the worsening of their
conditions and the police terror and
injunctions used against the 1,400
strikers of the Aberle mill, there is
a real discomfort developing among
the textile workers of Kensington.

The mass meeting which vas
called by a so-called union did not
have word said about the organ
ization of the unorganized, the need
of struggle against unemploy-
ment or the wage cuts, even the few
remarks made against the injunc-
tions stressed only the fact that it
was issued by judge belonging to
the Grundy machine of the Repub-
lican Party.
The feelings of the workers were
shown when Senator Brookhart in
cidentally mentioned the develop
ment of the cooperative movement
in the Soviet Union, which was re-
ceived with great applause, and
when 1000 leaflets were distributed
before the hall by the Communist
Party in connection with the meet
ing, exposing the unity of the
bosses, the Hoover administration,
the Brookharts, the social reform
lists, from the ALL, down to the
Musteites, the socialist party and
the renegades of the revolutionary
movement against the workers. The
workers took the leaflets and read
them eagerly in spite Of the large
number of policemen present.

While calling for prayer against

barometers Of the rapidly develop

CROSBY WARNS
POLICE AGAIN
ON COURTESY
Commissioner Says Failure
To Observe His Order viii
Bring Dismissal of Offenders

Washington police in the future
must be courteous or take the
consequences" according to an
ultimatum issued yesterday by
Maj. Gen. Herbert B. Crosby,
Commissioner in charge of the
police and fire departments, yes
terday.
Commissioner Crosby has in
sisted upon police courtesy since
his induction into office. His
policy has been a strict one, vio-
lation of the ruling resulting in
a charge of conduct unbecoming
an officer, for which the penalty
is dismissal.
It is stressed that there Is no
disposition on the part Of the
Commissioner or other officials to
make "mollycoddles" Of the police,
or to force them to resort to
a kid glove policy in the handling
of hardened criminals. Rather,
in the making of traffic arrests
and in arresting citizens for other
minor violations, the Commis-
sioner insists upon courteous de-
meanor on the part Of the blue
coats.
In declaring that he was
through issuing courtesy warn
ings, Commissioner Crosby stated:
"The policeman who loses his
temper and becomes obnoxious
while making an arrest VIII
have to take his medicine"
Unless the Commissioners find
some reason to sustain the appeal
of Policeman Garry, recently con-
victed by the trial board Of the
use of discourteouS and abusive
language while arresting Repre-
sentative Busby of Mississippi on
traffic charge, that officer will
be dismissed, 1t was declared.
While police must be courteous,
they are not to be without re-
course when a citizen is abusive
and makes himself obnoxious to-
ward an officer who is performing
his duty. the Commissioner said.
In such cases the police may place
charges of disorderly conduct
against the offending parties, in
addition to the charges which
originally led to the arrests.

INCOME TAXES
S200,000,0Q0
LESS IN 1890
Treasury Has Revenue Loss
From Customs Since Last
Fiscal Year Of $4,000, 900

Uncle Sans income from cor
poration and individual taxes In
1880 will be approximately $2,3OO.-
000, 900, according to estimates pre-
pared at the Treasury today.
This viii mark a reduction of
close to 5000, ,OOO, 900 as compared
with 1929, due chiefly to the ! per
cent tax cut applicable to normal
individual and corporation in
comes Of last year. The remainder
Of the drop may be attributed to
the stock market crash and the
business depression which marked
the closing months Of 1929.
Figures for the first nine
months Of the year showed total
income taxes Of $1,779, ,382, ,OOOs q
reduction Of $148, ,O0O. 900 from the
year before. In this period, cor
poration taxes lost but SIS, ,0OO, 900
and individual taxes $132, 900, 900.
It was expected that about the
same ratios would be maintained
for the complete year. m
Treasury and Budget Bureau
officials are now completing cal.
culationS for the budget of 1882.
While President Hoover and Sec.
retary Mellon sometime ago vir.
tually committed themselves to
a continuation Of the tax cut,
it was understood that a final
decision has not been reached.
In view of administration efforts
to stimulate business, the iInpfes-
sion of most officials was that
the tax cut should be maintained
during the present fiscal year.
The blow to Government in.
come will fall next March, when
returns reflecting incomes of 1880
will be filed. In the three months
ending March 81, 1929. the tax
collection was $628, ,o79, 900, a re-
duction of $4,000, 900 from the
corresponding period of 1928, the
drop resulting chiefly from the
/ per cent tax reduction. So
far no figures have been dis.
closed as to the probable collec-
ton.
In addition to income tax losses
from July l to October IS, the
customs collection was $125,042,
600, a loss of $50, 100000 from
last year. All Government re-
ceipts were $991 sos, 900, a drop
of s173,000,000. Ordinary ex-
penditures were $1,074. 1000, a
gain Of $4,000, 900. "
