An Increase In Taxation

The Administrations budget
bureau has warned Congressional
leaders that the Treasury may
face a deficit next year unless
appropTiat lions are slaShed- to- the
bone, 1t was learned today.
AS a result of the warning,
new pressure win be exerted by
Administration learerS to prevent
passage. of q flood of appropria-
tion and authorization proposals
in the closing days Of the pres
ent session. .tt'
Representative Cramton (R.) of
Michigan. informed by Director Of
the Budget Reop that the Treas
ury Is moving perilously near the
danger line, announced he would
fight all bills for unnecessary ap-
preparations.
Representative Tilson Of Con-
necticut, Republican leader of the
House, also announced that every
effort would be made to hold
down appropriations, and Repre-
sentative Wood of Indiana. chair
man Of the Appropriations Com
nittee, is taking a similar stand.

Of the budget regarding q park

was asked. j was informed we

"The budget, OF course, Is

ginning July /. II may be we
will end up with . $5O,OOO, 900
surplus, and then people will
say we have cried wolf
"But the estimates of future

fies the utmost economy. Other
wise we may face the necessity
of increased taxation"
Majority Leader TilSon said
Congress has thus far kept under
the budget estimates. Passage
of the Rankin World War vet

mated to cost SIS, 100000 by the
Senate Finance Committee, is
sure to bring a defiscit, he said.

Representative Rankin CD Of
Mississippi, author of the meas
ure, who overrode Republican

Thus far Congress has paid lit

In addition to the pressure Of a

demands for liberal Federal ap-
preparations to create employ

actual appropriations have been
kept down, authorizations for

TRANSFER Of j. S.
SHOP IS OPPOSED
House Amends Prison Bill So
Women Win Continue to
Repair Mail Bags.

The plea of woman workers in the
mail bag repair shop in lexington that
transfer of the shop to the Atlanta
Federal Penitentiary would result in
500 Government employees being thrown
out of work by a lot of convicts has
been answered in effect by the House
On motion of Representative La
Guardia Of New York, the Smell prison
pill was amended to provide that no
articles shall be produced for sale to
or use by Government departments or
Independent establishments in penal
institutions which at present are being
produced by civilian employees. The
effect of the amendment would be not
70 disturb the Post once Departments
repair shop.
Pointing out that the repair shop, at
Fifth and w streets northeast, employs
nearly 500 women, La Guardia said he
thought it hardly fair to deprive free
labor, although employed in Govern
ment department, of their work by rea-
son of competition with convict labor"
It was said the amendment had the
approval of the Post once Department
and that an effort would be made to
have its provision respecting the repair
shop adopted by the Senate.
Representative r. Walton Moore of
Fairfax, Va, agreed with La Guardia's
statement and read in the House let
ter from one of the woman employees Of

the shop which said: ''I am employed
at the shop and need the work. There
all would be thrown out of work by a
lot of convictS"
1.-THE meaning is that they will be
thrown out If this legislation is en-
acted" Moore said. IF this policy be
adopted you will disturb the employ
ment of hundreds of thousands of peo-
pie who have given the best of their
lives to the Government"
