CHECK RACKET
FRUSTRATED

CWA workers who fell afoul of
a discount" racket when they
cashed their first pay checks last
Saturday, will have no such dlf-
ficulty tomorrow.
In order to relieve this situation
the Treasury will have window
at the Pennsylvania Avenue
entrance open from l to p. m.
to cash CWA checks, it was an
nounced today. The checks may
also be cashed during the morn
ing period as usual.
The Merchants and Manu-
facturers Association and other
local trade bodies made repre-
sentations to CWA authorities
which brought about the facility
after the incident last week,
which penalized the workers and
could not be handled by police.
Several enterprising financiers
had prepared for the payday by
placing runners at the spot
where the workers were paid to
inform the latter that checks
could be cashed at a certain
place. When the workers arrived
their checks were cashed but they
were required to pay rs cents
out of their weekly earnings Of
$3.50 for the accommodation.

BUILDING BOOM
SNAG SEEN
BY International News Service

By International Ne"H
Recovery Administration efforts
to initiate huge building boom
early next year may be defeated
by lack of interest on the part OF
private institutions that normally
lend money on construction prof.
ects, it was learned today.
Several studies made by the re-
search and planning division OF
the NRA have demonstrated that
a revival of the building industry
is essential to success of the whole
recovery program.
More than 100000 persons are
directly dependent on construc-
ton, including large groups Of
highly skilled craftsmen and
artisans.
Secretary of the Interior Ickes
now is studying NRA reports stat
ing that about $14,000,0OO, 900
worth of new construction is
needed in the nation.
One of the reports declares that
an annual construction of 100000
family residential units could be
continued for several years before
filling the present shortage of Sani-
tary housing.
Another NRA report, prepared
several months ago, outlined q
method by which the Federal Gov
ernment could initiate a building
boom by guaranteeing credit and
other aids for the first year or two.

ASK
LIQUOR TAX
Of $3.50
Levies Aimed to Raise $780,
100000 in New Revenue
Are Recommended
BY International News Service

A Federal tax of $3.50 a
gallon on whisky was recon-
mended today by the inter-
departmental committee ap-
pointed by President Roose-
velt to study the liquor situa-
tion.
This tax, together with wines
and Federal license taxes, is es-
timated to yield $36O,OOo,o00 in
a year of brisk business activity.
$500, 100000 Total Revenue
With the beer tax estimated to
yield $156, ,0OO,0 900 annually, total
Federal revenue on whisky, wine,
and beer would exceed $5o0,OOO,-
600 a year under the interde-
partment committee recommen-
dations.
The estimate does not include
tariff duties, which probably
would add $1O0, 100000 to $780,
900, 900 a year. dependent upon
the tariff policy pursued by the
Administration and Congress.
The committees proposals are
expected to be laid before the
Joint session of the Senate
Finance and House Ways and
Means committee Monday, when
consideration of liquor taxes will
be started.
The interdepartmental commit
tee recommended radical changes
in the levying of import duties
and proposed a division Of taxes
with State governme is.
Bargaining Provided For
The President would be given
power to lower tariff duties
within limits so that reciprocal
trade treaties could be negoti-
ated with countries seeking the
American liquor market.
Under this plan the President
could allow the importation OF
liquor from countries which would
grant preferential tariff treat
ment for American industrial and
agricultural products.
To prevent duplication Of Fed
eral and State taxation, the COM
mittee recommended
That 20 per cent of the total
Federal taxes on alcoholic bev4
erages be set aside for distribu-
ton to the wet States.
That each State be entitled
to the portion of revenue which

KOUNTZE, Tex, Dec. 8 d.N.S0.
A frenzied mob slaked its thirst
for blood and vengeance here
today in one of the most grue-
some mob performances in Texas
history.
Angry citizens seized the body
of David Gregory, negro former
convict, from a sheriff's posse
that had shot him down, dragged
the body through the streets, cut
up the body, and threw it into a
blazing pyre.
Gregory had been accused OF
asSaulting and numbering Mrs.
Nellie williams Brockman and
had been hunted for more than
a week.
Refused To Surrender
Sheriff Miles Jordan and mem
bers of his posse said they trailed
the negro to a church at Vogh
and opened fire when the ex-con-
vict refused to surrender and
made a move as though he in
tended to shoot.

SHORT 5000

Warning that the District must
put 5000 men to work on CWA
projects before next Friday or face
having it's quota reduced was is
sued today by Harry L. Hopkins,
Civil Works Administrator.
So far, Hopkins said, the Dis
trict has done excellent work in
rushing CWA projects. He in
cluded it with six States in an
honor roll of speed and efficiency
In launching the civil works pro-
gram. Last Saturday 1858 per-
sons were paid off with civil works
money, and yesterday total OF
$4,000 were reported at work.
There remains 5000 jobs to be
given during the coming week.
Maryland was branded as one
Of the eight "disappointingly slow"
States, increasing its payrollS this
week from 12,491 persons only to
$4,000. Virginia reported faster
work by increasing its payroll from
1000 to 10000 over the same pc

WAXFY RRF AXIS
At SON s BIER

NEW YORK, Dec. 8 GN.S0.-
Waxey Gordon. who laughed at
death so often in that tough,
rough kingdom that booze built,
followed the body of his boy to it's
grave today and wept as a mob
of the morbidly curious tore the
flowers from the coffin.
Waxey, haggard and his eyes
red trimmed, his heavy, paunchy
figure that of broken man, had
come under guard from the Fed
eral detention prison, where he
has been held since his convic-
ton for income tax evasion.
Dressed in black he had slipped
quietly into a funeral chapel with
only a handful to watch him. But
the pack had assembled when the
casket was taken out. Men and
women surged forward to tear at
the flowers, to grab them, and
then sneak away with the ghoul-
ish souvenirs.
Clothing was torn, and women
trampled upon as reenforcements
of police finally dispersed the
mob and the ride to Mt. Hebron
Cemetery in Flushing began.
The dead boy, Theodore, 10,
and known in the North Carolina
college he attended as Wexler,
which is his fathers real name,
was killed in an automobile acci-
dent at Chester. Pa.
