HEARING OPENS
ON MAPES BILL

Officials of the municipal gov

reau of Efficiency and many civic
organizations were to appear be-
fore the Senate District Commit
tee late today as the committee
opened public hearings on the
MapeS income tax bill.
This measure, which passed
the House several months ago, is
one of several designed to impose
additional taxes on District resi-
dents.
The Efficiency Bureaus report
on the income tax bill, in which
important changes were sug-
geSted, was submitted some days
ago, but committee hearings have
been delayed because of the tax
battle in the Senate.

These bonus fleas stick closer

try. Misery likes company.
There's lots of people pulling

A Real Army
There's an army here-a real
army. They call it a bonus
army. But it's more than that
much more.
These 1000 men camped
along the Potomac are here to
get an answer to a mighty Seri-
GUS question. They want to
know why they're starving in
the midst of plenty.
They want their bonus
money. But the main thing
they want is work. They're
hungry and these bonus certifl.
Gates which don't mature for
another 10 or IL years are the
only things that even look like
meal tickets-much less money.
First of all, they are not
buns Second, they are not
agitators.
Citizens and Voters
And these men are shaven
and clean. They pass safety
razors and bits of soap back
and forth. There's the Potomac
River for a private bath and
laundry and plenty of hot sun
to dry out the wash.
These men are citizens. They
are veteran American soldiers.

Senate Democrats
Rap Hoover Film

Motion pictures purporting to
show President Hoover addressing
the Senate last week drew the fire
of Senate Democrats yesterday.
The President appeared in person
before the Senate to urge eXpedi-
ton on budget balancing legisla-
ton. When Republicans objected
today to Democratic requests to
consider unemployment relief leg
islation, Senator Harrison OO,
of Mississippi, said:
"The only reason 1 can see
for the objection is to give
time to allow the President to
get on the screen to give that
memorable address he delivered

GARNER RELIEF
PROGRAM Up
FOR DEBATE
Party Lines Drawn Closely
as Republicans Fight
For Hoover'S Plan

The House today began con-
sideration of unemployment
relief legislation for the first
time when the $2,30O,O00 1000
program Of Speaker Garner
was called up for debate.
Party lines were closely
drawn, with the Republicans
making a determined fight to
substitute the $1,000, 100000
plan of President Hoover for
relieving distress and reviving
business.
Pleading for the adoption of
Garner'S plan, Representative
Bankhead CD of Alabama said:
There has not been a mo-
ment more tense in the history
Of the United States than that
provided by the present eco
nOmic and unemployment situa.
ton.
"The bill of Speaker Garner
does not meet with the approval
of all members of either party,
but it Is an emergency measure
designed to give temporary re-
lief in the SpeedieSt and most
universal manner"
He said present conditions were
more desperate than World War
days and required desperate
measures.
ChideS Democrats
Representative Purnell (R) Of
Indiana, speaking for the House
minority, chided Democrats for
supporting a bill to "unbalance
the budget in less than "a hours"
after the passage of the $1,000.
900 900 revenue bill.
He charged Democratic leaders
with "hog-tying" their members
before leading them into the
chamber Ito vote gigantic and
monstrous pork barrel"
The nation is not able to with
stand the financial drain of Gar
ner's relief plan, Purnell con-
cluded.
The full force of a binding
Democratic caucus was thrown
behind the Garner program with
Republicans invoking party dis
cipline in an effort to substitute
that of the Administration.
The fight presented the clear
cut issue of a huge public works
bond issue to create jobs. More
than a billion dollars of the
Garner program is designed to
provide employment by this
method.
