PARLEY MOVES
To SEPARATE
TAX FIELDS
Interstate Assembly Expects
No Immediate Relief, But
Urges U. S. Confab

Believing immediate solution Of
the State and Federal "tax
tumble" is impossible, the Inter
state Legislative Assembly, meet
ing at the Shoreham Hotel, to-
day, agreed to bar any resolution
looking toward the adoption Of
any specific policy Of taxation.
Delegates, however, demanded
that the assembly take immediate
action of some sort to advance
relief for the over-burdened tax
payer.
Ready For Farley
A resolution was offered by
Henry Parkman, jr., Of MaSsachu-
of q continuing committee to
sets calling for the appointment
study the problem, the commit
tee to hold itself in readiness to
confer with Federal tax-levying
commissions.
Mr.. Parkman warned the as
Sembly the establishment of a
more orderly tax system was es-
sential If taxes are to be reduced.
Delegates agreed that the
States cannot settle their tax
problems, nor under present con-
ditions balance their budgets, un-
less State and Federal fields of
taxation are definitely divided.
"Tax Crime" Charged
In an address at last nights
dinner conference, Representative
Fred M. VinSon (DO of Ken
lucky, spoke of the tax crime"
perpetrated by the Federal Gov
ernment through invading the
States and blocking revenues Of
State governments.
Last night the assembly enter,
tanned at dinner the House Ways
and Means subcommittee on
double taxation, when the Federal
side Of the problem was presented,
The Federal Government, it was
generally admitted, already taxes
practically everything taxable in
the States.
Mark Graves, budget commits.
sioner Of New York State, declared
his State had reached a point
where officials were thinking of
putting tax on capital losses.
He warned the delegates that the
problem was one that could not be
solved at one conference.

JIM CORBETT
NEAR DEATH

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 U.Ns0.
Death seemed imminent today as
James j. C9cbett, former heavy
weight champion of the world,
lies in a coma in his home at
Bayside, L. I. Mrs. COrbett said:
"Jim has no chance to re-
cover. He is not suffering, as
he is being kept under the in
fluence of OpiateS. Everything
possible is being done for him
but there is no hope"
The conqueror of the great
John L. Sullivan is but a shadow
Of his former self. The physique
that for years was the wonder
of the sport world-a physique
that belied his real age by many
yearS-has faded. From a normal
100 pounds, glandular trouble and
heart disease has brought him
down to the welterweight class.

To AID
BRICK TRADE

If a man-and-a,half can lay a
brick-and-a-half-and so on.
Ceramic experts at the Bureau
Of Standards in trying to find out
how much horsepower is needed
in the manufacture of one brick
have a nut as hard to crack as
the above problem.
In making brick, clay and
water go into an overgrown meat
grinder, whose auger feeds the
wet mass to a die which stamps
out the brick or tile.
Paul V. johnson, youthful
assistant ceramic engineer at the
bureau, and his staff have
devised an ingenious but yet
amazingly simple device to
measure the auger's push.
Mr.. johnson, who has been
working on his instrument for a
year and a half, and expects to
be working with it for a long
time more, lives at Chevy Chase,
Md. He was graduated in 1924
as bachelor of science at Alfred
University in New York State.
