Waterbury Is responding verS gratifyingly to the appeal of the l national democratic finance com. mittee for funds to meet It's h- nanclal obligations incurred in the recent election campaign. Connec- ticut is expected to subscribe $l5, O00. or this amount $2,500 Is Wa terburyS quota. At tho end Of the first week of general appeal lt0 members of the democratic par ty to aid the loH committee to reach it's objective, 1t Is more than evident that Waterbury will be found among the first to subscribe It's allotted portion.
 Dr Edward C. Dolan of South Manchester Is state director of the finance committee. Mayor Frank Hayes is chairman of the Water bury committee and Is being as- sisted by committees formed of workers In the twenty voting dis tricts of the city Each district is expected to subscribe $l25. A number Of contributions have been I received by John r. Robinson, treasurer of the local committee, during the past week by prominent | citizens who want to show their oI lHt SlbttHuIu duC- cess of the national committee In winning history making election, but eager to place their party In q position to carry on for accom- plishment of varied program of activities.
 On next Tuesday evening mem- bers of the 18th district will meet at the City Hall to complete plans for thorough canvass of that par ticular section of the city. Rep resentative Daniel J. Mahahey, chairman of the committee, will preside.
 Workers of the 11th district will meet Thursday evening ut the re- quest of Chairman Henry McGrath.

LET UNCLE SAM COLLECT TAXES
 NOW PROPOSED
Would Eliminate All Dupli- catiOn-Part Would Be Rebated to Several States

Washington, Feb 4,--OUP) )-Col- lection by the federal government of all taxes except real estate levies was advocated to-day as way out of the tax Jungle. An apparent ma Jority of delegates from 32 states attending the American Legislators association conference advocated the plan.
 Under the proposal. the federal government would rebate part of the taxes to the states,
 "The only sensible and sound way Co carry out taxation and eliminate conflicting. bewilderIng and duplicity Of systems ls 10 let the federal government levy and collect taxes" said Seldon R. Glenn, tax commissioner of Kentucky.
 He believed the federal gc vcrn- ment should levy five or six cent tax on gasoline and give the states four or five cents. Similar taxes on tobacco, cigarettes and other sources of revenue were advocated.
 Income taxes should not be as- sessed by states" Glenn continued, "SinCe imposition causes wealth to move out of the state'
 Wilson Mccarthy, director Of the Finance corporation and former Utah cattleman, bank CT and judge, told the United Press Il federal sales tax as a vital neces- sity.
 "rhc burden placed upon real estate has become unbearable," he said.
 The small home owner and farmer cannot continue to carry the load. Mortgage foreclosures and loss of property are inevitable. Taxes always have been imposed on property since 1t is a visible and non-transferab object, Tax collectors just get map and make the rounds--there isn't n chance for n sliD-up,"
 McCatthy's advocacy of gen. eral sales tax levied by the federal government was supported by n ma jority of the delegates,

Gold Mining Stocks Whirl

Rest of List Shows Decline = Car LOadings Report Drives Down
 Railroads

I Publication of the weekly car
 loadings report showing wider than seasonal decline from the pre-. ceding week brought the railroad shares down fractions to a point. The loadings total for the week ended January 2S was 472,OSS cars,
 Q decrease of 24,34e from the previous week and a decrease of SS,-
 255 from the corresponding week
 of 1882. The percentage decline
 from 1882 was l5.7 against Ills
 the week before.
 Union Pacific declined Q point as
 did Atchison while fractional dee
 clines were noted in such issues ohio, and New York Central. Utilities behaved better than in the preceding session. They held | in e Fractional area with changes kmixsd. American Telephone was weak in the communications, how ever. It opened at part and ln- ter slipped down to 90 3-S off 1-4. It rallied fractionally from the low. There were several weak spots in the Industrial list. Allied Chem ical was depressed to 80 1-4 off 2 IS points before meeting any sup port, Case lost more than Q point. New York Steam preferred, inac- tive issue, broke 6 points to 104.l Small losses were made by Inter- national Harvester, Dupont, Gener- al Electric and Standard oil Of New Jersey.
 Standard Brands gave belated re- sponse to publication of its 1932 earnings statement which showed a gain over 1881. The issue rose frac- tionally to 15 and held the gain. Gold Mining Issues were whirled up to new highs in relatively ac- tive turnover. Buying centered on Dome and Mcintyre Porcupine Before the New York opening, spir- ited bidding was-done both on the London Stock Exchange and on u street market after that institution closed for the week. Gold mining issues also were strong on the curb. NF4
 There is nothing In the news to stimulate gold mining stocks. 1t is believed traders and promoters In many instances are focusing at tention on these issues. They base their buying argument on talk or imitation, and the relatively higher purchasing power of gold Ut this time. Gold mining companes are now operating at lower costs than in boom times because of reduced labor costs.
 oil shares were steady in the early trading, but they eased off with the general list before the close. ohio oil held steady. how ever, despite omission on the com mon stock dividend due at this time.
 Steel news showed operations holding unchanged in the Youngs- town district where they are at 20 per cent of capacity. This was in- terpreted as a flattening out Of the recent upturn and hence unfavor- able.
 Tho American Banker reported reduction in the number of bank suspensions In the past week. Res gently an increase in bank clos- ings was factor in unsettling the stock market.
 Tobacco shares reacted after early firmness on renewed reports of another cigarette price cut inn- pending. The makers of the popu- lar brands have .been meeting se- we're competition recently from com panies~ making low-priced cig- arettes and have been forced to re- duce prices to meet this competi- ton.

FURTHER WAGE
 CUTS OPPOSED BY STEEL CORP
Further Reduction Would Only Decrease Buying Power Declares Nat. Steel Corp Executive

New York, Feb 5-Further wage cuts In the steel industry werc strenuosly opposed by Ernest T. Weir, chairman of the board of National steel Corporation, in an Interview today. Referring 10 rumors that another wage cut Is contemplated. MT Weir was out spoken in condemning the idea, declaring that labor had done it's part and that further reduction would only produce decreased buying of steel
 "Steel manufacturers arc not justified in even considering any further liquidation of labor lt would be unfair, "Mr Weir de- clared.
 We have gone. If anything, too far along those lines, It Is true that the capital invested in the in- dustry has suffered a very heavy reduction of its earnings. but labor has certainly borne it's part of the burden" he added.
 Another wage cut at this time will not add single ton to the sales of steel. On the contrary. it may be expected to produce de- crease in sales. for buyers will tend to withhold purchases in the hope of still further concessions" |" MT Weir concluded.
