NECESSITIES OF
 LIFE AVOIDED IN
 THE TAX MEASURE
Levies Are Placed Upon Those Who Can Afford Them - Theaters and Movie Houses Affected If They Charge soc or More Admissions

Washington, March 30-(UP)- The revised revenue bill is de- signed primarily to avoid burdens upon the necessities of life and to place ievies upon those who can afford to pay.
 The lowered surtax on incomes will have little effect on incomes of less than $10,000 because of the exemptions for dependents. The proposed new rates on a $10,- 900 income would mean tax of $195 for married man with two children. This includes a turtax of $7.
 An income of $15,O00 for a mar ried man with two children would bring a tax of $409. including $47 surtax. In England the $10,000 income would result in a tax of about $1,S00 and the tax for the $15,000 income would be about $3,2O0.
 There is no present intention to require excise stamps for the taxes on commodities. The tax will go on the manufacturer. who prob ably will revise his prices to take care of the tax. Department Of commerce estimates were used in estimating the income from these taxes. For instance. the 1881 re- port showing sale of cosmetics val ued at $250,000,000 was the basis

 The party became snowbound Monday night while motoring through a raging blizzard enroute from Berlin to North Conway. Four miles beyond the Glen House. near Mt Washington, the road be- came impossible.
 For three hours they kept the motor running and this kept the cars heater in operation. Then the engine became over-heated and 1t was shut off to give 1t chance to cool. Later. when efforts were made to re-start the motor, 1t was found to be frozen.
 So the party sat huddled in the heatiess sedan, nearly buried by snow. until Herbert Kelly. Berlin garageman, and Paul Bernier. former Boston boxer, happened along on snowshoes. discovered their flight and assisted them to tho Appalachian Mountain club house.
 Members of the party. all Berlin residents. were: Miss Alice Gossop, 33: Miss Annie Labnon. 10: An- thony Labnon, f5; David Corey, 20; Anthony Corey. 2i; Louis Longiois. 90; and Louis Laenon' iM#e ..a..a ...
