what is the relationship between
the temperature of the sea, the

These geophysical problems are
but a few of the score or more

at the second days session of the
annual meeting of the American

A tentative program, carry.

of speculation on the New York
Stock Exchange into mid-June,
will be laid before the Senate

mittee late this afternoon by
it's special counsel, William A.

The program would send a de-

to New York Immediately to
search the records of brokers for
evidence Of bear raiding or stock
initiation.
Public hearings would be post
poned until the investigators de-
veloped evidence to support the
many charges hurled against
spectators and brokers.
Probe to Be Cheap"
Chairman Norbeck (R) of South
Dakota announced the inquiry
be conducted economically, since
only $4,000 was appropriated for
the purpose. He said that as
"long as the taxpayers are hard
up we'll not waste any money"
The public inquiry was post
poned for a week to give Gray
time to marshal his case against
the bulls and bears in Wall
Street.
The attorney was given
authority to employ assistants
and set up an organization for
gathering data on short sales,
bear raids, and inflationary
movements by bulls.
Charges Lack Proof
The inquiry Jagged because the
committee found itself over
whelmed with charges against
Wall Street operators, but lack
ing evidence to establish any
proof of wrong-doing.
Some of the charges levelled
at pools and syndicates involved
violations Of the stock exchanges
rules and of New York States
trading laws, but proof was
lacking.
President Hoover meanwhile
was drawn into the market pic
ture by Senator Blaine (RO of
Wisconsin, who read an article

London years ago, about the
economics of a boom"
The President stated the bulls

all over in China, and | could
only tell him what I have been
trying to tell a lot of the boys
and girls for some time, that
Asia is as far from peace
that is, permanent peace-as it
ever was.
Today's attempted assassination
is only a sample of what Japan
can expect from now on, not only
in Shanghai, but in Manchuria
and also at home in Japan proper
Old Jap Custom
I am not as certain as the
writer's of the morning dispatches
from Shanghai that the bomb was
hurled by Korean. 1t is an old
Japanese custom to blame all
pineapple-tossing on Koreans, but
If I am not mistaken, this latest
blast was of Chinese manufac-
ture.
I can understand the feelings
Of any Chinese whose homes were
blown up or burned down, and
their kids and women bayoneted
and shot down on the streets dur
ing the fierce fighting around
Shanghai can understand how
despairing, bereft, impoverished,
suffering victims Of Japan's ruth
less military would jump at a
chance to wipe out half a dozen
high commanders with one blow.
The man who did it would be
a national hero all over China,
regardless of whether the Japa-
nese forced the Chinese govern
ment to apologize and indemnify
and give substantial guarantees
for the future protection of her
officials in China.
BungIed From Start
When 1 said my good-byes in
Shanghai the day before my ship
showed off, visited almost every
one of the generals and ~.dmirals
who were wounded by today'S
bomb. At the time Of my depar-
ture, the Chinese army had pulled
back, and the Japs were happy
with the thought that a job
which they had bungled from the
start was finally over.
I told General Uyeda, one OF
today's victims, that I thought
his troubles, far from being
finished, had only begun.
Admiral Nomura discussed the
prospects Of a peaceful with
drawal Of Japan's reinforcements
from the Shanghai area, and he
also felt certain the Chinese were
licked and would not come back.
I tried to remind him what
had happened to every other con-
quering people that had invaded
China, and he agreed that China
had consumed all Of them
Observation-Disclosures, and
also the Jews-but he believed
the lesson of history did not
apply to Japan on account Of the
country's modernization and
adoption of Western civilization.
Peril to u. S.
American interests are not
vitally involved as long as the
Guerilla warfare and assassina-
ton is confined to the Asiatic
belligerents. Our troubles begin
the minute either side tries to
drag us into the mess.
My sympathies go out to any
and all people in war, and par
ticularly to its innocent victims,
but I believe it is unwise to per-
NIT our sympathies to sweep us
into the same fight on either side.
I'll bet Karl Won Wiegand and

TAX CASE ruling
ENDS6-YEAR FIGHT
Supreme Court Decision Af-
feCts inheritance LevieS
in Many States.
BY JOHN F. MILLER.

Shares of stock may no longer be
subjected to double inheritance taxes,
the Supreme Court of the United States
has just ruled.
For many years, residents of New
York Pennsylvania, Illinois and many
other States have been careful not to
carry large stock holdings in companies
incorporated in the sO-called non-re-
ciprocal Jurisdictions. For example, if
a resident of Philadelphia died owning
the shares of stock of a Montana cor
poration. both Pennsylvania and Mon
tana would collect an inheritance tax.
In the future, only the home State of
the decedent is entitled to impose a
levy, the Supreme Court ruled in
SiX-to- three opinion.
Reciprocal Statutes.
The decision. tax experts pointed out
today. is the elimination of an effort
extending over six years to eliminate
double death taxes. Prior to 1925, in
heritance taxes might be paid, not only
to two, but to seven or eight States.
The reason for this was, of course, that
some. of the large railroads are incor-
porated in several States and each State
might demand tax. In order to do
away with that injustice, some of the
States passed what is known as re-
ciprocal statute That was a law which
said in effect to the other States, IF
you will not impose an inheritance tax
on securities owned by our residents, we
will reciprocate and not impose tax on
securities owned by your residents"
ALI but the following nine States
have since adopted such statute: Ari-
zona; Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Minnesota, Montana. Oklahoma South
Dakota and Utah. The fact that these
Jurisdictions were still outside the fold
resulted in great inconvenience to those
States which did have a reciprocal law.
For example, if a resident of Kansas
died owning the stock of a New Jersey
corporation, the New Jersey tax would
be imposed, whereas if resident of
New York died owning the shares of a.
New Jersey corporation, no New Jer-
sey tax would be levied
In its opinion, the court pointed out
a possible exception. Where shares OF
stock are used as collateral to carry
on business in State, it may be that
such State can impose an inheritance
tax even though the owner is not domi-
ciled there. That question, the opinion
said. will be passed upon when it arises
The decision, no doubt, will be re-
reciprocal States, particularly New
York. That State collects huge sum
under its inheritance tax law and has

BIGGER BODYBUILDING
PROGRAM is ADVOCATED

BY the Associated Press.
E. j. Harding, managing director of
the Associated General Contractors OF
America, in a plea for a larger road
building program, declared such work
has proved its worth for unemployment
relief.
Aside, however, from the viewpoint
of employment, he said the justification
for an enlarged highway program is the
need for highways. In this connection,
he declared, this country boasts more
than 26.000,O0 motor vehicles and only
100000 miles of rural highways,
100000 miles of which will be deep in
mud this Winter.
Our automobile builders and motor
vehicle saleSmen are years ahead of
our road builders" he said I'VE need
the roads,, 100000 more miles of
them. Men need the jobs-6,O 100000 of
them. Mine and quarry workers, to pro-
duce raw materials, men in the mills
and factories to make necessary equip
ment and finished products-jobless
men everywhere to change mud holes
to highways all await the call to action" "
