An Editor for London.

President-elect Roosevelt adheres to
deep-rooted tradition in selecting an

authorized agent. 1t forbids any police
man or other public official in advance
of a raid or the execution of a warrant
to inform any person engaged in the
bonding business. Other provisions of
the bill further aim at abuses that have
developed and prescribe suitable penal
ties for violation.
This measure can be opposed only
by those who are interested in main
tanning the present lax system Of bond
ing, with its scandalous abuses which
impose needless cost upon arrested per-
sons and in effect constitute an i'm
proper alliance between the officers of
the law, attorneys and professional
bondsmen. There is no sound argument
against its enactment. 1t should be
speedily laid before the House for its
conconcurrence with the action Of the
Senate, so that this law, so urgently
needed in the interest Of justice and
honesty of court procedure, may be
enacted before the adjournment of the
present Congress.

Urges Income Tax
For ID. C.. Revenues

To the Editor Of The Star:
There are thousands of unfortunate
persons in Washington. who, although
they have not enough income to live on
in anything like comfort, are subject to
the District personal property tax.
For instance, widow with an in
come of $500 from $4,000 in securities
is required to pay one-half of l per
cent intangible tax of $50 year. If
she owns household goods and jewelry
valued at more than the $1,000 exemp-
ton she is taxed $1.70 per 500 on
them. If there was a District income
tax she would not have to pay any
thing, as no doubt there would be q
personal exemption of $1,000.
This District tax Is very unjust and
an income tax should be substituted.
understand that the District Com
miSsioners are in favor of an income
tax, which would place the tax bur-
den where it belongs-on the people
who have incomes to pay 1t and in pro-
portion to their incomes.
suppose the District Commissioners
may have access to the Federal income
tax returns from residents here and
they could figure just about how much
the personal exemptions and tax rates
should be.
There has been some discussion by a
committee regarding the Mapes income
tax bill for the District, but I under
stand that the matter has been dropped.

Poland and the Menace
Of European Troubles
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
In a. recent issue of The Star there
was printed an article by Admiral Pau
Behnke under the heading Polish Sea
Threat Seen in New Port" May ]
ask you to publish the following OBJ
servations in connection with this
article:
France was not responsible for the
Polish access to the sea. 1t was Presl-
dent Wilson who in the thirteenth OF
his IA points made 1t a condition OF
peace
The total tonnage Of the Polish
Navy is 5000 tons! Are we expected
to believe that this navy Is such q
formidable threat to the security OF
Germany, which boasts of such latest
achievements in naval construction as
the 1O,0O0-ton cruisers A, B and C?
The Polish army has 24700o men
and not three millions, as Admiral
Behnke wants us to believe.
If Germany considers her security
so constantly threatened why has she
consistently refused to enter into a
non-aggression guarantee pact which
has been proposed to her by Poland
on several occasions?
The statement "the debts incurred by
many European countries during the
war to end war seem to bother them
less than their preparations for the
next war" may be true, but let us as
Americans who are interested in world
peace remember first that competitive
armament in Europe has been created
by fear of an aspiration of 1914 which
has only been postponed; second. that
the debt question Of Europe hinges on
German reparations, which have been
repIIdiatad hv that nation
With Hitler now at the helm in Ger
many 1t is well for the readers Of this
article, written by a former command
er in chief of the German Navy, to
give pause to what the implications
of this power mean, for II Hitler were
to pursue his expressed policies the
whole foundation of European peace
and world peace as well would be at
stake.
Let us read between the lines Of
this article and go deeper into the
background of what constitutes world
peace and reputation of war debts.

What Is Going to Be Done I?

The S625, 900 appropriated in the
first deficiency bill last month for local
emergency relief to the unemployed was
supposed to last until June 30-the
end Of the current fiscal year. 1t was
shown very clearly yesterday, in testi-
mony before the Senate Subcommittee
on local appropriations, that it will not
last that long. The number Of de-
pendent families has increased at an
alarming rate. The sympathetic Sen
ators were quick to advise the Com
missioners to seek another appropria-
tion for the remainder of this fiscal
year. This money would be included
in the final deficiency bill, which is ex-
pected to be passed just as this Con-
gress winds up its work a week from
tomorrow.
But an even graver emergency faces
the District for the next fiscal year.
The House has allowed $625, 900.
Obviously, and as it has been repeatedly
stated, this will not be enough. Those
who are directly concerned with the
local relief problem began urging an
increase in the proposed amount for
emergency relief as early as last De-
cember. When it appeared that the
House would not grant the increase,
they sought the passage of the bill per-
mitting the District to borrow from
the r. F. c. in case funds are later
shown to be inadequate, and in case
no other money is available.
Congress is about to enter the final
week of its session. Only s625,OOO is
provided for the next fiscal year in the
District bill, which is yet to be passed
by the Senate. That is not enough.
What does Congress, solely responsible
for the Government of this munich
pality, propose to do about it? 1t is
necessary that the question be answered,
quickly and positively.

Pass the Bond Regulation Bill Il!

A bill is now pending in the House,
having already passed the Senate, to
regulate the business of executing bonds
for freedom on bail in criminal cases in
the District of Columbia. 1t is in the
hands of the judiciary subcommittee
Of the District Committee. Having
passed the Senate without dissenting
vote, it should receive the same treat
ment in the House, but there appears
to be difficulty in getting action by
the subcommittee to put the measure
before the House for final consider
alton.
For a good many years the manner
In which the criminal bonding business
In conducted in the District has been
the subject of criticism. 1t is commonly
believed that fees given to bondsmen
are split with attorneys and it has been
charged that policemen share in these
transactions. Persons who are arrested
for all manner of offenses seeking liberty
pending trial are given little choice OF

regulation of fees charged for this
service.
The bill now pending corrects these
abuses. 1t prohibits the splitting Of fees
between bondsmen and others, whether
attorneys, policemen, deputies or court
officers. 1t forbids the charging Of any
fees for executing bonds except those
regularly established as compensation
for the service, and it forbids any per
son engaged in the bonding business II
attempt to settle or procure the dis
missal of any charge against a persor
in custody or held on bond. 1t pro
yides that an alphabetic LIST of all per
sons engaged in the surety bushes
shall be posted in every police precinct
Jail, prisoners dock or other plac
where persons in custody are detained
and that any prisoner who seeks infor

Congress Fails to Give
Relief to the Farmers
To the Editor of The Star:

Congressional history Is again re-
peating itself. The farm relief bill is
again being shunted off until there will
not be time to pass it over a veto. II
Congress, especially the Senate, is to
survive under a dictator, why should
1t? Is there any wonder that farmers
are driven to lawless methods to try to
save what little is left them? Does
any member of Congress censure the
farmers for reSorting to holidays" or
other methodS-for this is coming fast
in order to save their families from
being herded into almshouseS, or camps,
and becoming public charges the coun-
try over? Or even from being con-
verted into virtual slavery on the farms,
after the mortgage and tax sales are
over? II you know what else farmers
can and should do, then tell them.
1t will make quite difference to note
whose bull is being gored, II and when
the time comes to abolish Congress.
And II this comes, would remind
every member that If he had saved the
farmer, in time, 1t would have saved
this country, and himself also. A Con-
gresham without job, or income,
would become as ripe for q change as
have farmers and other paupers.
Have they given farmers full value
received for the salaries they draw? II
they haven't it would seem that farm
ers have as much right to ask why
Congress should not be abolished as it
has refused them relief and still ask
them to continue that branch Of Gov

Patriotism Is Lacking
In Economic Distress
To the Editor of The Star,

TO the EDITOR OF The STAR
1t is difficult to understand why the
patriotism Of the American people has
been SO desperately remiss in dealing
with the economic situation. Could not
true patriotism be aroused in the
hearts and minds Of men and wom-
en- Of this Republic who already
have sufficient of this worlds
goods in order that those who un-
fortunately have nothing may be able
to secure employment and thereby
enable them to support their families?
It would, indeed, be true patriotism
for men and women of means to re-
linqyish their employment and thus
give to those who have neither means
nor employment an opportunity to meet
their obligations.
could be aroused with considerable ad
vantage to the common good of tn,
American home. and that both mn
and women under the class above
named would see the reasonableness in
such patriotism were 1t properly
brought to their attention by way Of
featuring a victory program inviting
patriotism to aid humanity, and thus
break the depression. bringing back
our true prosperity in logical and
Christian spirit.
1t Is obvious that many married
women holding positions both in and
out of the Government could very well
afford to relinquish their employment
for the benefit of mankind, especially
in a time of such prevalent distress
caused by lack of employment for the
masses, despite the fact that they are
both willing and capable. 1t Is true
many married women are obliged to
work in order to meet their obligations,
but il should not be an unworkable
task to determine who those women
are. Surely the wife of the incoming
Vice President of the United States
could relinquish her salary and allow
her position, which 1t is apparent she
intends to hold, according to her own
statement, to revert to one who Is seek
ing employment.
Furthermore, I see no reason why
men of sufficient means should not be
willing to relinquish their employment
for the good of their countrymen in a
time of such widespread distress and
misery caused by lack of work for the
masses. 1t would not impose the re-
sponsibility and hardship as did our
Government impose upon the youth OF
this land when they were called upon
to 90 into the trenches In foreign lands
for the sake of democracy.
Let us rise from our silent slumber.
