20, from 1900 to 1890 p. m,
Eastern Standard time, over the

announced today by the broad
casting system.
With national attention cen
tered on the possibility OF Cover
nor Pinchot's candidacy as Pro
gressive Republican to oppose
Mr.. Hoover for the Presidential
nomination next year, his inau-
gural address, in which the Gov
ernor may discuss national as
well as State questions, is ex-
pected to be Of wide interest.
Although delivery of the Gov
ernor's address will occupy the
major portion of the broadcast,
the radio audience, through a
carefully worked-out program,
will participate fully in other
features of the ceremony on the
Capitol steps.
The program will be opened
with an invocation by the Rev.
DR.. Claudy, followed by the read
ing Of the certificate of election
by the chief clerk of the senate.

WISCONSIN 7 Ak
IS UPHELD

CHICAGO, April 9.-Decision
of Federal Judge F.. A. Geiger a
year ago that subsidiaries doing
business in Wisconsin must pay
an income tax, although nomi
nally controlled and owned by a
holding corporation, was sus
tanned by the United States Cir
cult Court of Appeals.
1t denied the Buick Motor Co.
a petition to enjoin the city
treasurer from collecting 1926,
734 in taxes under the Wiscon'
sin income tax law.
Other companies to be affected
by the decision include the Col
gate-P oliver ct Co., the
Standard Oil Co. of Indiana and
the Simmons Co., which had filed
protests against payment Of taxes
under the State law and were
waiting for the outcome Of the
Buick suit.

SILVER COINAGE
RATIO ASKED

DENVER, April 9 G.N.S).-An
international economic confer
ence for the purpose of establish
ing silver coinage on a ratio with
gold of 20 to /, or whatever fig,
ure may be agreed upon, is i'm
mediately necessary to restore The
purchasing power to more than
a billion people, according to
Frank E. Shepard, superintendent
of the Denver mint.
Shepard pointed out that the
concentration of more than two
thirds of the worlds gold in the
United States, France and Eng.
land, the effort to place India on
a gold basis, and the debasement
of silver coinage in England and
many European countries were
among the important causes of
the present world depression in
industry.
Shepard quoted figures showing
that the entire world has pro-
duced about 2112 billion dollars
in gold and a little more than
19 billions in silver since 1893.
The Washington times., 1931-04-09

Maryland employment and pay
rolls in February increased 2.5
per cent and 65 per cent, reSpec-
lively, over January, according to
an Alexander Hamilton Institute
compilation. Of the Ia main
groups of industries, five reported
decreases in employment.
The mems clothing factories in
creased their forces by 81 per
cent over January. Building con-
tracts in February increased 33
per cent over January. The two
months total in 1881 was % per
cent above the same period last
year. Employment in retail es-
tabliShment in bruary de-
creased 2.8 per cent from Janu-
ary.
According to the Census of Dis
tribution, Salisbury had retail
sales of $8,783,959 in 1929. The
automotive group contributed ap-
proximately 33 per cent of this
total while the food group con-
tributed only II per cent.
Virginia Labor Surplus
Part-time schedules continue in
force in the tobacco and cotton
textile industries in February
The silk mills, however, are work
ing on day and night shifts. A
large surplus of labor is in evi-
dence throughout the State.
Coal production in March was
approximately 81 per cent below
March, 1880. Building contracts
The Washington times., 1931-04-09
Ups and Downs Are Shown
In D. G. Trade Territory

awarded in February totaled $3,.
$50, 400 as compared with $2,664,-
900 in January and $4,13l 500 in
February last year.
Although low temperatures
have retarded growth somewhat,
the early crop condition is fair.
Rainfall in the latter part OF
March has done much to help
the drought conditions.
West Virginia
The trend of industrial employ
ment in the last three months
has been sidewiSe. February and
early March showed a continua-
ton of part-time schedules. Coal
output was seasonally decreased
in February and March.
Very little building is in pro
cess. The two months total was
"a per cent below the correspond
ing period of 1880.
The. supply of farm hands Is
more than adequate for the pres
ent demand. Early crops are in
fair condition.
North Carolina
General curtailment and part
time schedules occurred in Febru-
ary as against January in the to-
bacco, machinery and textile
plants.
The cotton mills seasonally re-
duced their output. However,
an increase in spinning activity
is expected in March over Febru-
ary.
The surplus of labor embraces
all classes. Intentions to build
showed an upward trend in Febru-
