Helps Politician Explain
Error in Oath to Aid
Communism

By Scripps-HOt0Grd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Gene
Tunney has been aiding Representa-
tive A. Piatt Andrew, Republican, of
Gloucester, Mass, in the latter's eff
forts to explain to a humorless con-
stituency that the oath to support
communism, which both Gene and
Piatt took in Russia last year, mere
ly was one of those screamingly
funny things which happen some
times under misrepresentation.
Tunney revealed this today, fol-
lowing reports that Representative
Andrew, a wealthy New Highlander,
professor of economics, had been
burned in efigy when he reached
his Gloucester home after congress
adjourned.
The story, unfamiliar to the rest
of the country, but by now a we'll
known tale in Massachusetts, ap-
parently was related by Representa-
tive Andrew himself when he re-
turned from trip in Russia last
year.
Tunney, now mentioned as good
Democratic senatorial timber from
Connecticut by James Farley, Roose-
velt's campaign manager, was in a
box with Representative Andrew in
a Moscow theater, the story goes,
when, noticing everybody standing,
the two important Americans also
rose to their feet.
Afterward, they were informed
that the leading actor had asked
everybody in the theater who would
die for Communism, as had the men
in the play just witnessed, to stand.
Tunney, wiring today in response
to a question as to his aid of the
congressman in the latters fight
for denomination in the MaSsachu-
sets primary in September, said:
THE good congressman economist
jokingly stressed the amusing ex-
perience you refer to in statement
upon return last year. He was crit
icised severely by hard she'll Baptist
drys of Massachusetts. Naturally I
supported him in humorous duel
with critics. Personally looked upon
the thing with merriment."

example, Roosevelt arguing that this
agency actually put the government

Roosevelt's speech Saturday night

In that address the nominee read
the entire party platform, then
commented briefly on certain issues,

SPOKESMEN OF
WHITE HOUSE
RARELY SAME
Privilege of Being Senate
MouthpieCe Fleeing
Honor.
BgLHited Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON. Aug. The
privilege Of speaking informally, but
authoritatively for the White House
on the senate floor was a fleeing
honor during the last session Of con-
gress just ended.
Senator George H. Moses rep.
n. H, scholar, wisecracker and par
Humanitarian extraordinary, was the
spokesman during closing weeks of
the session.
His predecessors included Senator
Frederick G. Walcott Rep. Comm
Senator James E. Watson REP.
Ind, the majority leader, and, oc-
casionally, Senator Charles L. Nc
Nary rep, OreJ, assistant leader
OF senate Republicans.
Walcott was selected by the ad-
ministration to steer through the
senate the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation bill.
II was to Walc0tt that President
Hoover complained last winter that
snort sellers seldshly we're contrib
uting to depressed business condi-
tons.
UndOne by Short Sales
The complaint, specifically, was
that every time the administration
did something constructive. it was
undone in a storm of short sales.
Walcott started SO furious a bear
hunt that it seemed desirable short
ly to slow the chase
His senate colleagues were an
noyel at what they believed to be
Walcott's effort to curb the inyes-
tgation; and he quietly was ousted
from his post as master of the
hounds His White House Spokes-
manship ended there.
Majority Leader Watson and Mr..
Hoover never we're political pals.
Watson and Vice President Curtis
IN 1923 were leaders of the stop
Hoover" campaign of favorite sons.
Political necessity brought the
President and the senate leader to-
gether after the election
Sometimes Watson knew what the
White House was thinking. Some
times he didn't.
Hoover Was Displeased
Watson was chosen to manage
enactment of the home loan dis
county bank bill
The President was not pleased
that it lay for months before con-
gress, and was not passed until the
last day of the session. But Wat
son got it through, confessing that
he once had opposed it.
One Of the mysteries Of the long
session was McNary. The Oregon
ian is neither stand-pat nor pro-
gresSive. His popularity among his
colleagues is not excelled by that
of any other senator.
But Mr.. Hoover consistently sought
advice and counsel elsewhere. 9th

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP LEGISLATION
WILL INCREASE TAX BURDEN OF
FARMERS AND OTHER TAXPAYERS

ID ILLS have been introduced in the special session
- of the Indiana legislature for the promotion of
municipal ownership of public utilities which are
revolutionary in character If they enacted into
laws and program of extension of public ownership
is carried on, they will result in increased taxation
throughout the state
Municipal plants pay no taxes. The privately owned
public utilities of Indiana pay approximately $685.
100000 annually for the support of the state county,
township and city governments and the public school
system.
This company and associated companies under the
same general management paying this year
total of 81 465 73O in state and local taxes in Indiana
on their properties, exclusive of electric railways.
Ii these bills enacted into laws, every
time municipality acquires a public utility
property, that property will be taken off the
tax duplicate.
That means that the amount of taxes it has
been paying must be made up by the other tax
payers of the state. Farmers and other tax
payers will be forced to pay more taxes every
time taxpaying properties taken off the tax
duplicate.
Not only will the taxes of citizens in the town adopt
Ing municipal ownership be raised, but farmers and
others living outside the city will be obliged to pay
additional county and state make up the loss
of tax due to the taking of property off the
tax rolls.
Taxes for 1881, payable this year on electric prop
critics only, owned by this group of companies in
tain Indiana cities follow:
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-08-01

The above taxes are figured the book value of
the plant reported by the municipality for the year
ended December 81, 1890 and light be more or less
if privately owned.
The total amount of taxes which might be levied
on these twenty four electric properties would be
$565, o38O8 The utilities owned by the above NUM-
cpalities, if privately owned and taxed would mean
tightening the tax burden not only of taxpayers in
those towns, but also in the county and state.
House Bills 682 and $40 and Senate Bill All would
remove all municipality owned utility plants from
regulation by the state and would give municipalities
the power to condemn privately owned public utili
ties and to establish their utilities by the issuance
of revenue bonds
If these bills are enacted, city councils
town boards could Obligate cities and towns 10
spend large sums of money for machinery and
other equipment without restriction regula-
ton and without submitting the proposal to a
referendum of the voters.
There would be control by the state Of
rates, quality of service, accounting, service
extensions. Discriminatory rates even free
service for friends of the public officials in
troll would become possibility.
Privately owned public utility companies in
Indiana have extended electric service to farms
and rural communities. Passage of these bills
and extension of municipal ownership will
tail rural electrifcatiOn and retard develop
ment of service to those who live outside the
boundary lines of cities and towns. Not only
will the tax burden of the farmer be increased,
but opportunity for identification of his farm
will be deferred
These bills are of vital concern to every taxpayer
in the state of Indiana. They break down the safe
guards which now exist to prevent public officials
from unwise and wasteful spending of public funds.
They take away that right of equal treatment which
is the privilege of every citizen.
Ii you opposed to such legislation, write
or wire your state senator or representative at
indianapolis and voice your protest against
House Bills 682 and 649 and Senate Bill Az.
