new MOVE FOR TAX
ON SALES FORECAST
Senator Reed to Attempt Addi-
ton Of Levy to Federal
Revenue Bill

washington, April 30.-(F)-A quiet
campaign within the senate finance
committee to force the general sales
tax back into the revenue bill has
stripped it of many millions Of dol
lars.
AS the much-altered house bill
stood Saturday, it was far below the
approximate billion dollar total that
Is needed, despite stiff raises that
have been written into many sched-
ules. Senator Reed (Rep.. Pa has
led the drive under which special
excise taxes have been moved down
like ninepins, admitting he seeks to
compel use Of the sales tax which
the house rejected so vigorously.
Yet older heads on the finance
committee give him no chance. This
goes for Republicans and Democrats
and apparently represents majority
sentiment in the senate itself.
Wearied and more or less baffled
after a hard week spent at altering
the measure, the committee Is IN
recess for the weekend. its members
individually studying further money
raising possibilities.
A five-cent pound import tax
on rubber, estimated to yield $780,
$1,000 annually. is the next move In
prospect. It Is tariff rate along
the lines Of the duties on oil, coal
copper and lumber which already
have been banned by the committee.
The determined drive Of the COM
mittee for taxation Friday Melted a
new 10.per-cent tax on pari-mutuel
race track tickets, to be paid by those
buying the tickets. It Is expected to
yield SIS, 600, 900 annually.
More money is necessary. It will
be found, says Chairman Smoot. and
the bill reported to the senate "early
in the week."

PRESIDENT 0HAVE
FULL AUTHORITY IN
FEDERAL SHAKE.UP
House Leaves Provisions in
Economy Bill But is Rid
ding Other Sections

washington, April 30.-(E1-Prest-
dent Hoover,s biggest hope for reduce
ing wasteful expenditure In the gov
eminent has weathered the worst
Of the congressional opposition.
Alone of the important provisions
in the once impressive economy bill,
the section granting the president
power to reorganize branches Of the
unwieldly federal machine was passed
unchanged by the house late Friday.
The insurgent coalition group re-
NAMED firmly In the saddle, however,
Kidding the bill with so many
amendments that reductions totaling
SGT ,O0O, 900 have been thrown out so
far and only $4,000, 900 Of economies
approved. This accounted for about
half Of the items In the entire bill
and the revolters started work on the
remainder Saturday confident more
millions would be slashed from the
savings as soon as the section re-
ducing veterans allowances Is reach
ed.
The leaders, however, had not sur
rendered but chung to the hope tina:
when record votes are taken later
many of the members will reverse
themselves on pay cuts and other
items. The confusion Of unlimited
debate on the measure had killed all
chance Of getting 1t passed this week.
Favor Building Chief
The administration sponsored pro-
posal to create an administration OF
public works was approved Saturday
by the house as a part of the meas
ure reducing federal expenditures.
Under the plan, all government
public building and public works
activities except rivers and harbors
and military and naval construction
would be supervised by one admins
traitor paid $4,000 year.
It's proponents commended 1t would
eliminate many duplicate activities
Of various departments.
Representative LaGuardia, Repub-
lican independent opponent Of the
bill, attacked the section permitting
the administrator to use army and
navy engineers.
He proposed an amendment to
strike it out. claiming engineers IN
civil life should be given the work.
/ Smell Raps LaGuardfa
Representative Smell Of New York,
the Republican leader. said:
This Is an economy bill. Why
not use engineers already on the pay
roll? OF course If you don't want
economy, that Is another thing. But
I thought you wanted to save money"
Representative Cochran (Denl.,
MOI, chairman of the expenditures
committee that reported the meas
ure favorably, said the provision
would not call for the use Of the 5000
enlisted men in the army and engi-
neers corps.
Cochran finally proposed an
amendment to prevent the use OF
only army and navy officers as engi-
neers under the public works admin
istration. It was adopted overwhelm-
irgly and an amendment by LaGuar-
dia to prevent their use was howled
down.
The house voted down an amend
ment by Representative McClinttc
Dem.. OklaO to create central pur-
chasing agency for all government
departments and bureaus.
The war and navy department con-
solidation proposal then was taken
up.
Chairman McDuffie Of the eco
nomy committee succeeded In limit
ing debate to two hours.

HUEY LONG RESIGNS
COMMlTTEEPOS
ONE-MAN
Fiery southerner Engages in
Verbal Tilt With Minority
Party Leader

Washington, April 80. -R-H uey
Long constituted Saturday a one-man
Independent Democratic bloc In the
senate.
Living up TO his reputation for tire
spectacular. the former governor of
Louisiana threw up all his committee
assignments Friday and delivered
himself Of flashing outburst against
the party leadership Of Senator Rob-
inson Of Arkansas. Robinson. with
out loss Of time, turned on the re-
bellious member and employed his
most sarcastic oratory In challenge
to contest for the leaders post.
He called Longs committee resigna-
ton a comic opera gesture that does
not do justice to the comic talents
and power Of the senator from Louisi-
ana" He referred to louisiana
liking fish" as that great genius in
craftsmanship" But neither this nor
other sallies floored the Louisianan,
who wound up: If he'd just kept OH
talking a little longer we would have
got closer together. When he quit, he
was just about to nominate me for
leader"
It all resulted from Robinson S
openly opposing Longs resolution to
instruct the finance committee to
limit all incomes to a $l.000,000 an
nual maximum, and lifetime inheri-
tances to 100000 The new senator
has shown little liking for Robinson
from the start.
In contrast to his outbreak on the
senate floor Friday, Long Saturday
judicially expounded his bill to
strengthen the antitrust laws before
a senate committee.
Laying new straw hat. cane and
half-smoked cigar upon the commit
tee table. he cited court decisions to
bolster his argument.
