Others to Be Heard
Hearings on the legislative appropria-
tions bill are nearly completed, With
George Carter, the Government printer
to be heard tomorrow, and Director
Hess of the Botanic Garden to be heard
on Monday, so that the Appropriation
Committee feels that it could easily
report the legislative appropriation bill

Immediately following the tax bill now
under consideration.
A change of sentiment In Congress
for drastic salary cuts 'an down the
line" was attributed today by Repre-
sentative Byrns to lobbying activities
Of certain postal employees"
Byrns said the change was due large
" to the action of the postal employees
who caused the defeat Of proposal to
prevent automatic salary increases for
Treasury and Post once Department
workers.
The proposal bill is expected to save
from $5o,0o0,00o to $loo,o0o,o00 an
nually.
Demands Have Increased.
Byrns said demands for wage cuts
In the lower brackets have increased
tenfold"
Meanwhile, hearings before Senate
Committee on the Borah bill to cut SAL
aries of Farm Board members and Of
ficials Of organizations under the board
were continued until tomorrow at the
request Of Chairman Stone Of the Farm
Board.
The Borah measure seeks to cut pay
of the board members from $4,000 to
50 500 and limit salaries Of officials OF
the organizations under it to $4,000.
The pay cuts, sponsored by individual
legislators since early in the session,
had appeared to be defeated by gen.
eral sentiment against such economy
means, but the harassing job Of bring
ing the four billion-dolla Federal bud
get down to a size commensurate with
the present national income, forced 1t
to the front again.
So far President Hoover has main
tanned steadfastly a strong position
against Federal pay cuts, but there ha!
been no offcial statement from tn.

The Democratic leader Of the House
Rainey of Illinois, said yesterday h.
considered the cuts necessary, particu
larly for the immediate psychological
effect upon the country.

that the foreign debtor nations would
resume payments amounting to about
2Te.000, 900 at the end Of the one-year
Hoover moratorium, but added:
II don't believe they'll pay dollar OF

SALES TAX HELD VITAL
Shouse Says Measure, Repellent te
Democratic Mind, Is Necessary.

SAVANNAH, Ga, March 10 (R).-
Jouett Shouse, chairman Of the Demo
cratic National Executive Committee
last night called the manufacturers
sales tax before Congress a Democratic
concession to absolute necessity and
one Of the products Of the political
armistice" In Congress.
The whole idea of such a tax, he
said, "is repellent to the Democratic
mind" but needs must be when the
devil of necessity drives"
He spoke here before the Hibernian
Society of Savannah
Faced with an absolute necessity of
formulating a tax plan that would
correct the Treasury deficiency by
1888, Mr.. Shouse said, the Democratic
majority found inescapable the un-
welcome job Of increasing taxes.
Situation Is Critical.
There is cause for neither surprise
nor criticism that many members of
Congress oppose the sales tax" he said.
Save for the critical fiscal situation,
there would be small excuse for it, IT
viii be supported in frequent instances
by those who would ordinarily incline
to defeat 1t, because they realize the alb
solute necessity Of making every effort
to balance the budget"
He predicted it would be passed es-
sentlally as proposed by the Democratic
House and the Republican Senate and
signed cy the President That being
the case. he continued, there can be nc
monopoly Of praise or blame for Its
results.
The political armistice" from which
the measure resulted, Mr.. Shouse said
was, forced on both parties by "the
pressure of public necessity" and does
not extend outside actual Government
business on into the presidential cam
paign.
Bills Held Palliatives.
BY means of cooperation in Con.
gress, the Democratic leader said. thu
two parties apparently have effected
legislation which tends to amelioratt
the dire condition Of the fiscal and in.
dustrial institutions Of our country,
but he called the measures ''palliatives'
and said the best that could be hoped
for them was that they would provide
breathing spell in which business may
Set about its own salvation.
Even so, he added, "the present Con.
gress has functioned more satisfactorily
TO the public interest than has any re.
cent Congress during a corresponding
period. 1t was a situation fraughl
