Bingham in New Move
To Put Tax on Beer

A renewed attempt to put
legalized beer in the revenue bill
was to be made in the Senate to-
day with the battle over the sales
tax in the offing.
Undismayed by the action OF
the House in defeating 2.75 beer,
wet leaders were determined to
force a record vote on the ques-
ton Of taxing beer as a SubSti-
tute for numerous So-called nui-
Sance taxes.
The beer amendment was pro-
posed by Senator Bingham RO
Of Connecticut, who declared it
would permit a slash in the pro-
posed postal rate increases while
permitting a wide range of reduc-
tions in other proposed taxes.
Meanwhile, the question Of i'm
posing high taxes on few in.
dustrieS Or a moderate tax on all
industries" was expected to come
up tomorrow or Friday.
Senator Walsh CD Of Massa-
chusetts announced he would
move the adoption Of a ia per
cent sales tax as soon as the Sen
ate had acted on all items in the
bill.
The 10 per cent excises imposed
by the House on toilet prepara-
tions, jewelry and furs we're elimi-
mated by the Senate last night.
The Senate also reduced the pro-
posed 8 per cent tax on trucks to
2 per cent. All farm relief pro-
posals so far have been excluded.

sales tax on cosmetics to the
tax increase bill.
This was the fourth time the
committee has revised the tax
on rubber and the second
time with in "a hours.
With a swarm of rubber repre-
Sentatives outside the committee
room doors, and with the Ohio
Senators, Fess and Bulkley, in
side pleading their case, the COM
mittee voted to reduce the pro-
posed 10 per cent sales tax on
rubber to a tax of IA cents a
pound on tires and 4 cents a
pound on tubes. Senator King
CD of Utah, said:
"This reduction meant a loss
of $4,000, 900. We had to make
it up somewhere so we decided

Calls for Hell p

BOSTON, May 25 (L.N.S).
A ship-to-shore mail plane, en-
route from the deck of the
giant liner Europa to New
York, flashed an SOS. call
of distress this afternoon from
a point approximately 400
miles east Of Nantucket Island.
sos in trouble" was the
terse message, picked up by the
East Boston Airport radio station
and Coast Guard vessel at
Charlestown Navy Yard.
The Europa, also caught the
message, and, while shore broad
casting stations remained silent
relayed the SOS call from the
mail plane.
The ship-to-shore plane was
thought to have the pilot and
the radio operator.
Receipt of the SOS was the
signal for a rush by Coast Guard
vessels off Nantucket toward the
supposed location of the airplane
in trouble over the Atlantic.
The plane swept from the deck
of the Europa at 1910 E. D. T.
The first SOS flash from the
aircraft was heard at 1910 p. m.
A short time later came the relay
from the Europa.
Weather conditions over the
section of the Atlantic off Nan
tucket were generally fair.

INDIANA ORDERS
BONUS ARMY
MOVED
~ Trucks Will Take Invading
Soldiers to Ohio Border;
Guard Police Called

INDIANAPOLIS, May 25
N.N.S.).-Gov. Harry G. Les
lie today ordered Adiutant
General Paul Tombaugh to
move the "bonus army" in
camp at Washington, Ind, to
the Ohio State line at Law
renceburg, Ind, near Cincin-
natl, Ohio.
At the same time the governor
ordered that a company Of the
Indiana National Guard, prob
ably one from Vavay or Madison,
be mobilized and sent to Law
renceburg to foreStall any at
tempt of the bonus crusaders to
seize the trucks.
Move Costs $1,000
General Tombaugh probably
will go in person to Lawrence
burg to supervise the passage
of the bonus army" into Ohio.
It will cost the State of In
diana approximately $1,000 to
move the army" the governor
said. At least "a trucks and S5
drivers will be required for the
move.
Rail Rate Too High
Decision to use trucks in NOV
ing the veterans came after Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad officials
refused to give the State any spe-
cial rate in transporting them.
The railroad demanded 3.6
cents a mile for each veteran.
This rate was prohibitive, the gov
ernor decided. There are 372
men in the Bonus Army"
WASHINGTON, Ind, May rs
GN.S9.-Undaunted by their
nearoSkirmish with six units of
Illinois militiamen, the bonus
army of $50 World War veterans
today were ready to continue
their freight-car journey to
Washington, D. C.
The veterans who are carrying
pleas for full payment of compen-
sation certificates were trans
ported here last night from East
st. Louis, ILL.,, in a caravan Of
motor trucks and automobiles
after tying up freight traffic on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
for nearly 48 hours.
NToVn Aro nofoy.v~nSVnoSl
Informed that troops were on
the way to East st. Louis they
compromised with Sheriff Jerome
Munie and agreed to allow a
freight train of 36 cars to move
if they were given transportation
by motor.
The trouble began there when
B. & o. officials refused to grant
them transportation on freight
trains.
The spirit of defiance still
ruled their ranks today.
Leaders of the caravan were
undecided which road to take out
of this town for the East today.
The veterans have their choice
Of the Baltimore and Ohio road
and the Big Four lines.
Get Free Food, Camp
A camp with free food was
awaiting the veterans arrival
here last night.
Packing plants along the route
are solicited for bacon and
