SENATE AWAITING
PROGRAM
Proposals, as Yet Unknown,
Due After Final Vote on
Tax Bill.

The detailed program OF govern
mental economies, worked out by spe-
cial Senate subcommittee during three
weeks Of intensive study will be report
ed to the Senate as soon as a final vote
is reached on the tax bill.
The economy plan, the contents Of
which probably will not be disclosed
until it is ready TO go to the Senate,
must be passed on by the Senate APP
preparations Committee first but the
day on which 1t will be submitted to
that committee had not been fixed last
night.
Proposals Withheld.
Although there has been considerable
speculation as TO what the subcommit-
tee will recommend regarding reorgan-
ization of Government agencies, and
whether 1t will provide for salary cuts
OF furlough system, members Of the
subcommittee have consistently re-
Trained from revealing any Of their
proposals.
The Appropriations Committee will
not meet tomorrow. but it is believed
that as soon as a final vote on the taX
bill Is in sight in the Senate, that COM
mittee will be called into session TO act
on the economy program, so that 1t can
be taken up in the Senate promptly
following the revenue measure. AS was
the case in the House, the general pol
icies on economy, affecting all govern
mental agencies. will be acted on as
part Of the legislative appropriation bill.
Executive Session Held.
The Senate subcommittee in charge
Of appropriations for the legislative
branch of the Government met in ex-
ecutive session yesterday and went over
that portion of the bill carrying the
legislative funds for next year.
There are five other appropriation
bills, including that for the District OF
Columbia, awaiting action Of the Sem
ate Appropriations Committee. Once
the general economy plan has been
brought out and acted on, however,
these other supply bills are expected
to follow quickly.

REPLY TO STONE.
Chicagoans Rap Policies of the Federal
Farm Board.


CHICAGO. May % LP-An oficial
statement from the Chicago Board of
Trade has been issued replying to as
Sertions by Chairman Stone of the
Federal Farm Board that liquidation of
the Farm Board surplus had pro-
ceeded in such a manner that American
wheat prices have been maintained at
substantially to Is cents buShel
higher than the world parity"
The statement also replies to aSSer-
lions Of Representative Strong of Kan
sas that for the first time in history
Chicago wheat prices were over Liver
pool and that the Farm Board should
be credited for such a result. The
Board of Trade statement says:
Every gain merchant knows how and
why this has happened and the dis
astrouS result it has had in curtailing ex-
port trade, backing up the surplus, and
lowering prices. 1t is fair question to
ask whether practices of the Farm
Board in selling wheat on long-term
credit on Chinese promissory notes,
trading it for coffee or selling at sea-
board prices lower than those at inte-
rior markets has not made the so-called
world parity to IS cents lower than it
otherwise would have been.
Many believe world prices would
have been 10 to 80 cents higher had
not other competing surplus nations
been frightened into sacrifice sales be-
cause of the Farm Boards fire sale ad-
vertisement to the world
The Farm Board can hardly claim
to have elevated domestic wheat prices
which are lower today than last year.
than two years ago, and than three
years ago. By selling wheat at S cents
- IL -
further depresses the Liverpool price.
1t gives importing nations the benefit of
low prices and harms American farm
ers."

Senators Steiwer and Carey Say
Something Should Be Done Be-
fore Congress Quits.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Two Western Senators yesterday told
President Hoover they thought some
sort of relief measure for agriculture
should be passed before Congress quits
After the conversation with the Pres
ident. Senator Steiwer, Republican, of
Oregon said he felt the President prob
ably would have program Of his own
soon for farm relief.
He added. however, that he expressed
the opinion because he knew the Presi-
dent wanted something done to aid the
farmer. He said the Chief Executive
had not told him he was drafting such
a program.
Senator Carey, Republican, Of Wyo-
ming also said he was convinced Mr..
Hoover was anxious to see something
done for agriculture this session.
Both Senators took up specifically
with the President joint bill they
have introduced for the creation of re-
gional agricultural credit corporations.
These would be empowered to make
loans to farmers and stockmen for crop
production and also for raising live
stock.

SALES TAX PLAN
IS FORUM TOPIC
Senator Walsh to Discuss
His Proposal on Radio
Tomorrow.

A general manufacturers sales tax.
exempting from its operations foods
and other necessities, as an effective
means of balancing the Government
budget, will be discussed by Senator
David I. Walsh of Massachusetts, in
the National Radio Forum, tomorrow
at 9 pm. Eastern standard time. The
Radio Forum is arranged by The Star
and broadcast over the network of the
National Broadcasting Co.
Senator Walsh, a member of the
Senate Finance Committee, is the
author of the Walsh amendment to
the pending revenue bill levying tax
of Its per cent on manufacturers
sales. The general manufacturers tax
sponsored by Senator Walsh is a sub
stitute for many Of the individual
sales taxes and nuisance taxes carried
in the revenue bill. 1t is the conten-
ton Of Senator Walsh and others who
favor the general manufacturers tax
that 1t is fairer to industry than the
special levy which singles out indivi-
dual manufacturers and is more efec-
tive in RAISING the needed revenue

SolicitiouS about the wash basin that

$4,000, and yet stand here and vote to

Senator Walsh replied that not only
would lumber be taxed under the pend
ing bill, but that it would be taxed at the
rate OF 1913 per cent on the cheap lum-
ing man, and only per cent upon the
lumber that goes into the mansion.
Senator Walsh defended his vote
against levying the highest rates of
taxes on incomes He said he had sup
ported the committee on the income
tax rates included in the bill and that
he had supported the committee gen.
orally, except that he had taken the
position I'VE should substitute general

No Inducement to Spend.
Senator Walsh said that when the
country was prosperous and corpora

were large, heavy surtaxes and normal
taxes should be levied.

Senator Walsh, with profits gone, with
incomes wiped out, I say there is no
Aforementioned that IS one of the
troubles with the country-for the man
or woman of wealth to put their money
in the business. An entirely different
situation exists. They are putting their
money today into taX-eXempt Securi-
ties will go further. If they want to
preserve their money and be sure it is
safe, they have got to do that. What
we are doing when we propose these
high surtaxes is further to push them
into tax-exempt securities.
II make a clear distinction between
conditions when the country Is pros
porous and when the country is pros
trate. One Of the advantages of the
proposal made by me is that people
with tax-exempt securities will be taxed
No other proposal in the bill, or any
other bill, will reach the people by the
tens of thousands and hundreds Of
thousands in this country who have
enormous incomes without paying cent
OF taxation. But they spend money,
and spend it lavishly. and if they spend

six months, and did not know where

Questions Being Asked.
Predicating their discussions on the
likelihood of demand for Walkers re-
moval political observers are asking
these questions:
Would removal Of Walker hamper or
enhance Roosevelt's chances of being
nominated?
What would be the effect of a re-
fusal?
What would be the effect of removal
on the voting Of the 81 unrestricted
New York State delegates. 40 to so of
whom Tammany claims to control?
If Roosevelt were TO win the nomina-
ton. after having removed the mayor,
would he be able to carry New York
State in November?
without New York States IS cleo
toral votes, could he roll up big
enough majority in other sections to
be elected?
What would the effects be in Novem-
Der il he should refuse to Dust the
mayor?
manyites' Prediction.
Associates of John F. Curry, Tam
many leader, are loud in their predlc-
ton that any action against Walker
would kill" Roosevelt politically
A close friend of former Gov. Alfred
E. Smith said removal of Walker might
clinch the nomination for the Governor,
but result in his defeat at the polls.
Others think Walkers removal would
demonstrate beyond all question that
Roosevelt is entirely Independent of
Tammany and thereby would win him
the support Of many unpledged or
'favorite son" delegations in the con-
vention.
His campaign managers expect him
to have more than 600 convention votes
when the first roll call begins That
would mean only 80 short of the TO
needed for nomination.
