NEW LIQUOR TAXES CHOSEN.
$500, ,0Oo, 900 is Expected to Be Received
in Revenue.

New LIQUOR taxes from which the
Government hopes to obtain more than
$500, 900 900 in revenue have been
picked to lead the administrations ef-
fort, both legislative and admmlStra-
tive, to provide coverage for the costs
of the recovery program, old and new
These liquor schedules, which will be
thrown into the House on the opening
day of Congress, designed to offset the
special taxes of the national industrial
recovery act terminated by prohibition
repeal, apparently constitute only the
start in the Administrators tax drive.
No Repeal of Excises.
The special taxes in the amount OF
s212 600 900, including the surprisingly
lucrative and easily collected capital
stock tax, were enacted by the extra
session to amortize the $4,000 900, ,0OO
Public Works fund, now virtually eX-
hausted. Liquor will do this job ade-
uuately on the basis of all estimates
but demands accommodating for continu-
ance of the numerous phases OF emer-
gency relief and agricultural measures
indicate at least two things:
There will be 10 repeal and perhaps
no modification of the excise or So
called nuisance levieS Of the revenue
act of 1892, enacted when the project
for the general manufacturers sales
tax failed.
second. the administration and Con-
gress both expect to find sizeable rev.
enue by plugging holes in the collection
of the income tax, and to recover also
substantial amounts claimed in back
taxes by collection drive in the Inter
nal Revenue Bureau. The inSistent
demand for settlement of the disputes
in the Treasury and the Board OF Tax
Appeals already has found reaction in
the Revenue Bureau, where diligent ex-
animation OF records is under way fol-
collection of taxes past due.
Tax Free-for-an Seen.
Service charges for the $4,000, ,000,0 ,0OC
fund are expected to be requested from
Congress to continue the emergency
agencies. The Public Works Admins

ministration and Agricultural Adjust

j. s. RUM CONTROL
/. IS FACING DELAYS
Administration Insists on
Solution of Problems of
Repeal First.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Enactment of a permanent Federal
liquor control method by Congress will
be delayed by the administration until
after many of the problems confronting
the Federal Alcohol Control Admins
tration have been Strengthened out.
This was indicated in administrative
and congressional circles yesterday,
when 1t was disclosed that the legisla-
tive proposal previously suggested by
the Presidents Interdepartmental Al
cohol Committee would not be consid-
cred by the House Ways and Means
Committee until after the projected
liquor and general revenue bills are
through the House.
Planned Early Submission.
Congressional leaders were given to
understand that the administration felt
that until after the immediate post
repeal difficulties relating to production,
distribution and sale Of liquor had been
worked out no proposals for permanent
legislation should be submitted.
At first it had been planned to send
the liquor control bill up for action i'm
mediately following the revenue meas
ure. which was agreed upon tentatively
Friday by the Ways and Means Com
mittee. However. Chairman Doughton
expressed doubt whether the control
measure would be submitted until late
in the coming session.
There is considerable opposition
among both Democratic and Republican
members from wet States to any Federal
regulation. but those from dry States
contend greater Federal protection must
be given arid commonwealths.
The liquor tax measure-impoStng q
S2-a-gallon levy on spirits, SIS bar
rel on beer and retaining the present
S5-a-gallon tariff on liquor imports
is estimated to bring in about $500 ,00O,-
900 in the first - months after enact
ment.
Continuance Predicted.
In addition, the projected general
revenue measure is estlpated 10 be
potential of about $270, 100000. Further
there is growing opinion that the capt.
tai stock tax imposed in the recovery
act and automatically repealed next
July | in view of prohibition repeal
might be continued. This levy has been
remunerative for the Treasury so much
so that witnesses appearing at hear
ings before the Ways and Means Com
mittee have predicted that 1t would
be continued.
Speaker Rainey said yesterday the
disposition of Congress was to follow
the President in the coming session on
the major provisions Of all proposals.
Even the Republican leaders, he said,
had shown an inclination to await de-
velopmentS instead Of laying the ground
work for obstructionist tactics.
While there will be some amend
mentS sought for the existing recovery
acts. Rainey said. there would be little
difficulty in obtaining additional ap-
preparations for continuation of the
public -employment-relief pro-
gram. ,,..
Both Rainey and Representative
Byrns of Tennessee. Democratic House
floor leader, predicted the session would
be comparatively short and harmonious.

The floral patternings Of the new
est prints are gorgeous beyond de-
scription. So outstandingly are the
fiorals silhouetted against their back
grounds it would almost seem as il
they had been painted by an artist
with strokes deft and sure.
If we were to employ all the adjec-
tives at our command we would still
feel we had failed to do justice to
the beauty Of this seasons prints and
so with the thought that pictures
speak more eloquently than words
we are referring you to the illustra-
ton herewith.
The stunning costume centered In
the group Is study In white and
black. 1t Is a Worth creation. The
dress is fashioned of superb white
and black line print. These line eff
fects are the "last word" in prints.
In interpreting the mode at it's best
Worth makes a decorative play on
velvet, using shirred black velvet for
the girdle with white mat velvet for
the three-quarter coat, the gloves and

that they are formed Of fine ribbed
white velvet. The pleated shoulder
line of this enchanting velvet wrap is
a touch Of genius.
For bizarre and exotic coloring we
refer you to the striking costume to

nothing smarter this season for day

types to magnificent affairs such as
the model shown here. The out
