TARIFF POWER
FORPRES|DENT
ASKED IN BILL
By GEORGE R. HOLMES

By GEOHGE II. HOLMES
President Roosevelt wants to
be armed with real authority
when he sits down next week to
talk worldwide tariff reduction
with Premier Ramsay Macdonald
and the representatives of 10
other powers who will follow Mac
Donald to washington.
To that end, Mr.. Roosevelt
plans to ask Congress to confer
upon him the greatest tariff
making powers ever asked by any
White House incumbent. The
draft of a bill to carry out his
ideas is in it's final stages, and
probably will be sent to Congress
within a week.
A stiff fight is expected against
It, led by the Republican rem
nants that produced the present
Hawley-Smoot bill, but the over
whelming Democratic majorities
in both Houses are expected to
overcome this opposition.
Seeks Treaty Power
Mr.. Roosevelt wants specific
authority not only to negotiate
reciprocal tariff agreements with
other powers, but authority to
enter into a multilateral treaty
providing for horizontal tariff re-
auctions, If one can be worked
out at the forthcoming World
Economic Conference. The founda-
ton work for such a treaty will
be started in the Washington con-
versations beginning next week.
He also wants authority to
change tariff rates up to so per
cent by Executive order, subject
to Congressional ratification with
in so days.
Trainers of the legislation have
had to make a good many con-
stitutional shortcuts to give the
President the powers he wants
and still stay within the limits of
the Constitution. The bill has
been revised many times to meet
various objections and still is in
complete.
Insistent on Tariff Cuts
More Importance is attached by
the Administration to the tariff
aspect of the approaching confer
ences than to any other single
subject to be dealt with-foreign
debts included.
Secretary of State Hull talks Of
little else. Repeatedly and with
increasing emphasis, he insists
that tariff walls and other ar
tificial trade barriers constitute
the greatest retarding factor to
world economic recovery.
Lon don dispatches reporting
that Macdonald is coming to
Washington prepared to argue for
debt revision as fundamental to
any plan for economic recovery
have left the Administration cold.

II men to battle In one tub.
''I guess wen have to introduce bill
for bigger and better bathtubs," said
Representative James J. Bond, Seattle

This amazing situation developed

DOUBLE TAXATION
WIDESPREAD EVIL
Federal and State Govern
ments Guilty, Says
House Subcommittee.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Federal and State governments both
are guilty Of the crime of double tax
ation," 1t was reported yesterday by the
House Ways and Means Committee
Subcommittee on Double Taxation.
In an abstract of a preliminary re-
port Of the subcommittee,s investiga-
ton, Representative Fred Vinson of
Kentucky. chairman Of the group, re-
ported that "the conclusion Is inescap-
able that taxes, State and National,
should be rationalized and stabilized, or,
In the language of President-elect
Roosevelt on this subject, in which he
has manifested much interest, 'synchro-
nized'."
The committee, composed of Vinson,
Cullen Of New York and Lewis of Mary
land, Democrats, and Chindblom Of
Illinois and Crowther of New York, Re-
publicans, began its study last year in
an effort to determine how the States
and the Federal Government might go
about the overlapping and duplication
of levies.
The preliminary report shows that
both the Federal and State govern
ments are guilty of the invasion Of a

ton, the Federal Government, at one
time, solely occupied the income tax
field. Likewise, the tobacco field. At
the present time, % States and Terri
tories have income tax statutes, the
ma ajority of which are o. recent origin,
and Is States have entered into the to-
bacco field"
On the other hand, the report said
the Federal Government recently had
entered the gasoline tax field, already
held by the States.
Implications Numerous.
Between the Federal Government
States and Territories, 1t said, there
are approximately 326 Implications oi

burden upon various commodities means
diminution Of sales, with the conse-
quent lesser yield in revenues" par
ticularly on gasoline and tobacco.
| Other fields of double taxation, the
committee reported, included income
levies on individuals and corporations
death and inheritance taxes, cigarettes
and electricity. Counties and cities now
are levying on gasoline sales.
