FEDERAL COMMITTEE
HAS PLAN TO unity
TAXATION SYSTEMS
Government Would Collect L.
quor Revenues and Distri.
butte Il to States

Washington, Dec. 9.-(P)-The adj
n.inistration has opened the way fol
congress to establish a national taxa
ton system by which the federal gov
eminent would collect all revenues
and divide them between the nations
treasury, states and political SUBJ
divisions.
The interdepartmental committee
set up by President Roosevelt to study
alcoholic beverage taxation has sug-
gested to congress that 20 per cent OF
the total federal receipts on liquor be
returned to the states to prevent dou-
be levies.
This is in line, officials and men,
bers Of congress claim, with the presi-
dents plan to call a conference OF
governors for the purpose Of eliminat-
ing not only double taxation of liquor
but that Of other commodities and
articles.
The idea Is not exactly original with
this administration. It's principle was
first invoked In estate taxes collected
by the federal government. q large
portion Of which is returned to the
states in which the collections are
made.
An exhaustive study has been COM
pleted by the house double taxation
committee headed by Representative
Vinson (Dem., Ky.), which recon-
rnended single system to simplify
collections and ease the burden on the
taxpayers.
Experts with the house ways and
Ireans committee cited that federal
and state governments both impose
taxes on gasoline, tobacco. and cigar
cites, as do some counties and cities.
Many states also have income levies
like the federal government.
The plan has been suggested In

One Of the most interesting of the
results OF these experiments Of sending
recording electroscopes clear up to the
top OF the atmoSphere-our own high
est flight reached 90 per cent of the
way to the tops this: We have been
able to determine from these measure
ments with good deal Of certainty
the total energy Of the cosmic rays
falling upon the earth, for this energy
Is all expended in ioniZing the atmos-
phere and it is this integrated ioniza-
ton that our curves measure
However, there are other facts about
the cosmic rays in the stratosphere
which we cannot get by the foregoing
method. Thus, in order to find the
way n which the hardness or pene-
trating power Of the cosmic rays varies
with altitude-and this is an important
pointer. Victor Neher and 1 have
been building much more accurate and
heavier recording electroscopes than
those used in these balloon flights.
We have been taking these new cleo
troscopes up to attitudes of about So
600 feet in airplanes, then repeating
the experiments with heavy lead shields
the effective assistance of the United
States Army at March Field, Calf,
we carried up 600 pounds Of such lead

These two experiments-that is, those
with and those without the lead shields
have made 1t possible to determine
with very considerable accuracy the
penetrating power of the rays as they
are found at different levels. The
planes are able to fly for an hour or
so at a given level. This makes pos
sible an accuracy of determination
much greater than that obtainable in
our sounding balloon experiments.
