ROBINSON RAPS REASSESSING
OFQUAKE- DAMAGED PROPERTY

SACRAMENTO, Cal, May 81
U.P) Tax exemption in proportion to
damages suffered by the March 10
earthquake in Southern California
will be given to real property
holders of Los Angeles and Orange
counties. if the voters so choose
next June 81.
One of the proposals that will
appear on the June 81 special ell
ection ballot would, if approved,
provide for the reassesSment of
quake damaged property on the
basis of it's value after the quake.
Property was assessed this year
on the basis of its value on March
6. -Four days later, proponents of
the measure argue, the value of
much property was virtually wip-
ed out by the disasterous quake.
The fact that the value existed
and was owned by the property
owner on March 6 should not ac-
cording to any reason of equity
or fairness, require payment of tax
eS upon such value when the value
was destroyed four days later"

WILL REVISE
INCOME TAX
BY WILLIAM F. KERRY
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, May II. - Con-
gressional resentment stirred by
the Morgan investigation appeared
likely today to result in senate
amendment of the administration S
business recovery bill to lay new
tax burdens on large, rather than
moderate incomes.
Proposals for sharp increases in
the upper brackets of the income
tax, coupled with heavier surtaxes,
were gaining support.
The recovery measure, carrying
a huge public works appropriation
and broad powers for the federal
control OF industrial production
and working conditions, passed the
house yesterday after the hardest
fight of the present session.
Despite "closed rule'' which
prevented any real effort at amend
ment, opponents of the bill were
able to muster a vote of 1877, but
265 voted for final passage.
Insurgent leaders of the house
considered the vote a "moral VIC
tory" and predicted the senate
would effect wholesale revisions in
the $700,000,000 revenue clause,
This section, although revising the
"net loss" income tax provision
under which many of the rich es-
cape taxes, still bears heavily on
the "little fellow Income tax
rates on the lower brackets are
boosted to provide revenue to fin
ance the $3,300,000, 900 public works
plan. In addition, the present one
cent federal gasoline tax is in
creased to one and three-fourths
cents.
All of the "nuiSance and excis-
es carried in the 1882 revenue act
are extended for an additional year,
until July 1, 1885.
A last minute compromise trans
ferred the electric energy tax from
consumer to producer.
The house, at the last minute,
plugged one income tax hole. 1t
altered the "net losso section to
prevent carry over of losses from

the senate would be content with

ballot.
If" Robinson pointed out, "leg-
islation is good that applies to
property damage caused by earth
quake in the counties of Los An
geles and Orange. it should apply
with equal propriety to situations
where damage comes by reason of
causes other than earthquake.
The BILL" Robinson proceeded.
"seeks to remedy a particular Sit
uation by the same process that
has brought about an intolerable
situation. namely: the overburden-
ing of common property with tax
alton to the point of confisca-
ton. 1t is in effect a tax ex-
emption measure. Exemptions have
in many years constituted the
major changes in our tax system.
In every case, unexempted property
takes on the burden lifted from
exempted property 1t seeks
to correct an injustice by the i'm
position of an injustice.
Proponents of this measure did
not think clear through their
problem and provide for an equit-
able distribution of the tax they
seek to lift from those who suffered
damage by earthquake"

REVISION Of
FILMS URGED
Bad Effect Of Undesirable
Pictures On Children Con-
demned By Survey.

NEW YORK, May 27. U.PJ-The
motion picture industry was urged
today to revise it's entire system of
production because Of the critical
and complicated situation" created
by the powerful" effect of ques-
tionable films on children and ad-
olescents.
The suggestion was contained in
Our Movie-Mad Children" herald
ed as a non-scientific summary OF
the report of a score of pSycholo-
gists and sociologists from leading
universities based on a four year
nationwide research.
The survey was financed by the
Payne fund, an organization de-
voted to adolescent welfare, at the
instance of the motion picture re-
search council of which DR.. John
Grier Hibbin, late president emer-
titus of Princeton university, was
president.
The Investigators found, accord
ing to the summary, that while
many excellent films have been
produced, numerous cases CT Shock,
fright, delinquency ard crime en-
phasize that much Of the "unsuper-
viSed output of the commercial
screen is not only questionable but
positively deleterious to the health,
conduct, social attitudes and NOR
ais of the children and young pee
ple of America"
The summary states that very lit
tie of what passes on the screen
eludes youthful spectators since a
child of will see three of the five
things noticed by a superior adult;
a child of IL will catch three out
of four and a Is or 16 year old
child will get nine out of 10.
In some cases, the summary said,
children remembered more about a
picture after six months than they
do the next day. Horror and fright
pictures often disturb sleep for
three or four days afterwards and
the resultant nervous shock some
times leads to future disorders.
The film output, the summary
found, is too heavily weighted with
sex, violence and crime-constitut-
ing 70 per cent of the 1880 feature
list.

SITUATION At

BY HERBERT II. EKINS
United Press Staff Correspondent


PEIPING, May 27.-Fears that
the bloody, costly fighting of Shang-
hal might be reenacted here rose in
the minds of foreign military au-
thorities today when the japanese
commandant announced that here
after day and night patrols of Jap
anese troops would move through
the city.
Such patrols, the commandant
said, we're necessary to protect jap
anese subjects because of the Situa-
ton arising from an attack by un-
identified Chinese several days ago
on japanese sentry.
This situation, the commandant
said, still was serious because the
Chinese had failed to carry out their
promise to demilitarize the city.
Gen. Ho Ying- Ching, Chinese
minister of war, said today that
Feng Yu-Hsiang. the Christian
general, one of the most formid-
able figures in China, had reen-
tered the political and military
scene.
Feng, Ho said. had revolted and
seized Kalgan, l10 miles northwest
of this old northern capital, be-
cause he opposed the efforts to
arrange truce with japan.
Foreign commandants are appre-
hensive. Events today, they said,
parallel the situation which preci-
pitated the fighting at Shanghai.
Word of the intention to patrol
the city was sent by the Japanese
oommandant by letter to other
IcommandantS.
Japanese legation guards at the
moment are largely taking over the
work of the Peiping police. They
forcibly enter homes, seeking Chi
nese troops, and question even pro-
minenu persons regarding their
possible connection with the anti
Japanese movement.
Reports of a verbal truce, an
nounced and then denied by Chi
nese authorities, remained in OBJ
security today. Mystery surrounded
rumored Chinese Japanese conver-
SationS.

latter from joining labor union.
The governor also signed bill
appropriating $4,000 to add eight
new points to the state teletype
system connecting local peace Off
