TAX RELIEF IN
Low BRACKETS
TO Be SOUGHT
Congressman to Ask That
State Treasures Get
Share of Liquor Tax
OTHER VITAL u. S. TAX
CHANGES DISCUSSED
BY ARTHUR F. DEGREVE
United Press Staff Correspondent
Copyright, 1888, United Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. (UP).
A slight reduction in the federal
tax on small eraned incomes has
been proposed to the house ways
and means committee by a sub
committee selected to study means
of increasing government revc-
nue.. the United Press was in
formed last night.
A higher tax on the incomes in
the higher brackets was recon-
mended by the subcommittee to
meet decreased returns from low
salaried workers. 1t was empha-
sized. however, that the proposed
shift in the burden of taxation
would not reach the proportions
of a "soak-the-rich" movement.
The house ways and means
committee is expected to begin
hearings on December 5th on the
tax program it will recommend to
congress. A week later. the Uni
ted Press learned, a joint COM
mittee from the senate and house
will study various proposals in
volving the federal tax on liquor
through which the government
hopes to obtain at least $780,
100000 a year in new revenue.
Some members of congress re-
turning to the capital feel this
estimate is too high and have in
dictated they will demand that
sadly depleted state treasures re-
ceive the lions share of liquor
tax revenues. They point out that
states need this money to regu-
late the liquor traffic locally and
to replenish state Golfers emptied
by the heavy cost of relief.
An effort will be made to pre-
sent the liquor tax proposals to
congress in a separate measure to
avoid the usual protracted debate
and delay encountered by gen.
eral tax bill.
There is to be little change in
the gift and estate taxes if the
sub committees proposals are
adopted by the main committee,
it was reported. although many
officials believe these levies could
be increased to relieve the burden
on the smaller incomes.
Considerable attention is certain
to be devoted to means Of closing
the loopholes in the income tax
law as a result of revelations by
the senate stock market investi-
eating committee.
Chairman Fletcher of this COM
mittee said today it would coop
crate with the administration also
in preparing legislation to reg1-
late stock exchange practices.
The disclosure that J. P. Nor
gan. multi-millionaire banker, had
paid no income taxes for three
years yet had not violated the
revenue act, stirred the nation,
and brought vociferous demands
that such practices be made I'M
possible in the future, congress,
men returning from the West told
the United Press.

'KINGFISH' CHAR GES
INTIMIDATION EFFORTS

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2. (UP),
J AS senate subcommittee brought

ime to a close, United States Sen
ator Huey P. Long charged "a
band of outlaws in trying to in
timidate the voters in the sixth
district, but we are going to hold
that election next Tuesday" the
fiery "Kingfish" asserted in COM
ment on the spectacular revolt
against him in the sixth congress
sional district where anti-Long
forces are resentful of his spon-
soring an alleged handpicked can
didate for congress.
Long asserted that Mrs. b.
livar E. Kemp, widow of the late
congressman from the sixth dis
trict was lawfully nominated to
succeed him. Governor o. X.
Allen, who issued the call for an
election made no provision for a
primary, thus resulting in the
sixth's revolt,
Citizens of the district perfect

ton meeting and fixed December

They later burned official ballots

Two outbreaks by bands of an
gered citizens at st. Francisville
Intensified an uprising in Louisi-
ana's sixth congressional district
last night against Senator Huey
p. Longs political rule.
A group of Is men invaded the
West Feliciana parish courthouse,
broke into the office of the regis
trar of voters. seized 1000 blank
ballots that were to have been
used in next Tuesdays congress
sional election. and burned them
in the street.
A few hours later mob OF
100 persons halted two state
highway department trucks that
were loaded with political circu-
lars. The literature was piled in
the street and burned. Neither
the drivers nor the trucks were
molested.
Officials refused to comment on
the situation. Many local authori-
ties have announced openly that
they were in sympathy with the
revolt.
Eight of ~ parishes in the
Sixth district have united in an
effort to block next Tuesday
election, claiming that the Long
administration ''hand picked Mrs.
Bolivar E. Kemp, as the candidate
to succeed her late congressman
husband. without permitting the
voters to hold a primary.
"A citizens committee filed suits
in each of the II parishes late
yesterday, seeking to prohibit the

Charles Nj. Schwab
Regains Optimism

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK.-Charles M. Schwab
, patriarch of the Nations steel men. ac-
cepts the heterodox industrial credo of
President Roosevelt with considerably
mere cheer than Dame Fuller once
agreed to the scarcely more inevitable
necessity of Deity. This probably
means that the one-time grocer'S clerk
has regained the old optimism which
was so evident around that S3,500,000
mansion on Riverside Drive prior to
1882.
Optimism was what Mr. Schwab lost
completely in that year, when he saw
everything seemingly headed fer the
demnition bow-wows. But on his list
birthday he released a photograph of
himself in f1aWlesS evening suit. That
indicated some improvement, and now
he is Enthusiastically himself again.
Sleep may have had something to do
with the happy readjustment. A man
who snuggles in at $50 every night
mornings. No doubt, too, his own
practically unbroken record of triumphs
returned to cheer him. From the time
he took off white apron, dusty with
flour and blue with prlIne juice, to be-
come one of Andy Carnegie's bright
young men, he has had, CT possibly has
made, an amplitude of breaks. He was
probably the first industrial executive
in this or any other country to draw
down million year. The thin,
gently closed lips beneath that hawk
nose have plenty of reason to smile
most Of the while, in spite CT the specter
of 1929.

working class mentality. They consider
that the labor union funds belong not
to the nation but to the working people,
and first of all to themselves.
In short, the Hitler program, as the
rank and file understand it, means vast
social reforms to be achieved through
national unity The national unity,
they feel. has been accomplished, but
they are getting the impression that
the government is procrastinating in
the matter of social justice.
The campaign against the Jews was
carried out with enthusiasm, not so
much through race hatred. as because
the Jews were regarded as holding a
privileged position economically. But
obviously the practical benefits were
nil. The feeling now Is that there must
be a campaign against property and
privilege in general, regardless of race
or creed.
The Jew-baiting orgy, in fact, ap-
pealed to the troops as only a prac-
tice game in preparation for the bigger
assault on the strongholds of capital
This means that after dispoSing of the
Socialists and Communists the masses
behind Hitler expect to turn against
the Nationaists, which, in fact, has
been their ultimate objective all along.
Hitler will have to hurry to keep up
with his men. He will remain popular
only so long as he continues to lead
them in the direction they are deter
mined to follow.

France Would Aid Sterilization
OF Dollar Before Conference Opens

for the United States to re-establish
free circulation of gold by constituting
an equalization fund, The bank
notes which it issued against the pur-
chase of pounds and francs would tend
to create a rise of American prices
certainly much more efficacious than
that resulting from the sale of bonds
on the open market by the Federal
Reserve banks, which recent laws au-
thorized to the figure of $4,000, ,000, 600.
Under present circumstances
there would result monetary stabili-
cation eminently favorable to the sue
cess OF the World Economic Confer
ence."
On the other hand, should no sta
bilization of the dollar be effected, the
French feel strongly that it would be
useless to go to the World Economic
Conference. Pierre Etienne Flandin,
former minister of finances, recently
asked in the Chamber: Us it true that
Daladier declared he will not 70 to
London unless the dollar and sterling
are stabilized beforehand?" To this
question Daladier made no denial. Its
accuracy may therefore be assumed.
However. beyond the letters making
their wishes and readiness known, there
is not much the French can do. They
have been watching carefully the re-
cent reports of the conversations be-
tween the British and Americans on
this subject in Washington, but here
in Paris, so far as the best INQUIRIES
can ascertain, there is nothing active
being done. Nothing. in fact, can be
done until the British and Americans
agree on levels for the pound and the
dollar. The French can only wish
and it comes from the heart-that
they will hurry up.
