WASHINGTON, May l8. = Bud
get Director Douglas, on behalf of
the administration, today present.
ed to the house ways and means
committee four alternative tax pro-
grams, including a general manu-
1acturerS' sales tax, to finance the
huge public works recovery bill.
A general sales tax of rs per
cent, Douglas said, would raise
$2l4, 900, 900 while 1-5 levy would
give new revenue of $228,000, 900.
Douglas testimony before the
committee conceded with the pre-
diction of House Majority Leader
Byrns, at the White House, that
the bill would be reported out of
committee Monday and passed by
the house by Wednesday of next
week.
The budget director told the
committee it was essential that
taxes providing minimum of
$220,000,000 be included in the ad-
ministration IS business recove y
bill
Alternative tax programs includ-
ed one increasing the normal in
come tax rates from four to six
per cent and from eight to 10 per
cent; withdrawing exemption of
dividend income on which taxes
are paid at source, and imposition
of three new exciSeS.
These included 10 cent a pound
tax on tea to raise $8,000,000;
five cent tax on coffee to raise
$70,000,000 and similar impost on
cocoa, which was estimated to pro-
vide $l7,0O0,0OO
The second program, Douglas
said, would yield total of 1924
100000 in new revenues, with $46,-
100000 coming from the income
tax increase and $83 100000 from
the dividend tax.
However, the administration
spokesman warned the committee
that the second program might vi
olate any tariff truce.
The third plan of taxation in
cluded the same increases in in
come taxes and corporation taxes
but included in lieu of the Gxcises
y of cent additional levy on
gasoline to raise $92,000,000 or
total of 1921 100000.
Seeks Sterilization
The fourth alternative provided
for increased normal income tax
rate from four to eight per cent
and from to II per cent, to raise
$87 100000 These increases, plus
the elimination of present exemp-
tions on dividends tax paid at the
source, would yield $103, ,00O, 900 from
the dividend tax.
The fourth program also includ-
ed a five cent tax on telephone
tolls from 25 to SO cents to raise
Sc, 100000 and an admission tax be-
ginning at 20 cents to produce $685.
100000.
Douglas, co-author of the ad-
ministration IS industrial recovery
program, brought forward his tax
suggestions after explaining that
the President IS plan aimed at
"business stabilization and whole
sale unemployment of America IS
millions of joblesS.
He explained to the committee
that TO finance the $3,300,000 900
in public works provided as an in
tegral portion of the President
plan new taxes were essential.
Reviewing the present fiscal sit
uation, the budget director pre-
dicted that ordinary government
expenditures would be brought to
an approximate balance with
present revenues by the end of the
1884 fiscal year.

BERLIN. May 1S.--President
Roosevelt, made fully aware of
German official views on dis
armament by DIR. Hjalmar
acht, president of the
Reichsbank, phrased his unpre-
cedented worldwide appeal for
peace in sympathetic vein and
thus indirectly animated Chan
cellor Adolph Hitler's concilia-
tory speech before the reich
stag, the United Press learned
on reliable authority today.
German observers believed
that Hitler's efforts to still the
troubled international waters
were greatly inspired by Presi-
dent R0osevelt's dramatic ges-
ture, and officials credited DIR.

Due to conditions in Wash
ington affecting the All-Amer-
lean canal contract, Charles l..
Childers. chief counsel, decid-
ed at $3.50 o'clock this after
noon to depart for the capital
tonight.
AS instructed by the board in
a resolution yesterday, he was
to make the trip If in his iudg-
ment the situation in Washing
ton made his presence neces-
sary.
Charles L. Childers, chief coun-
sci of the Imperial Irrigation dis
trict, said at headquarters this
morning that ne decided to wait
a few days before a proposed trip
to Washington in order to aScer-
tain what is necessary concerning
suggested amendments to the ALL
American canal contract or a sup
Elementary contract thereto.
When he returned from Los An
geles late yesterday, he said, he in
tended to leave last night for the
capital. He found that the board

eide whether the journey was nee
essary Since the matter was left
entirely to him, he wished to make

fore accepting the responsibility, he
said.
He agreed with directors that

(SpeciaD Say, this man
Roosevelt not only makes con-
gress roll over and play dead.
But, by golly, he made this
tough guy Hitler promise to
bring sticks out of the water.
Is there no end to this mans
cleverness?
Course there is one thing
about Europe, you can never
believe 'em the first time. They
will agree to anything till it
comes time to sign up. This
might be just the ideal time to
stop war, for nobody has any
thing to fight one with. Like
disarmament, it's not done for
humanitarian reason, it's only
done for economic reasons. The
whole thing seems too good to
be true, but the whole world is
changing so maybe they are
going to turn human.

BRITONS PLAN THREE
NEW NAVAL. CRAFT

Continued from page one)
up to complete treaty Strength
permitted under the London ma
val treaty of 1880.
"The policy of building cruis-
ers of comparatively small ton
mage" Sir Bollin said, twas
adopted in the hope the other
nations would follow our lead. 1t
will be recalled that in July of
1882, the British delegation at
Geneva advanced proposals for
the reduction of future cruisers
to 1000 tons. with a maximum
gun calibre of 81 inches.
Unfortunately, neither hope
was realized"
The first lord of the admiralty
recalled that Japan in 1881 built
two 8500-ton cruisers, allegedly
mounting 15 six-inch guns on
them, and is now laying down
two more and contemplating an
other two of the same type, max
ing six new warships.
He said that the United States
already had announced her inten-
ton of building four cruisers OF
10000 tons each with 6-inch
guns. He insisted that Britain's
altered program would not in
crease the cost of her naval pro-
gram.

NEW RULINGS
MADE ON TAX
Manufacturers Selling d.
rect Subject to Sales
Impost
The Times-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Nov. 15.-If a man
ufacturer sells any of his prod
ucts direct to the consumer, eth
err from his plant or from a store
maintained by his plant, such
sales are subject to the 3 per
cent general sales tax, according
to a new ruling just issued by
Director. Harry Mcmillan of the
sales tax division of the state de-
partment of revenue. Still an
other ruling holds that the sale
of optical goods by optometrists,
opticians. occulists and others of
eve glasses, lenses, frames, arti.
ficial eyes and other optical
goods to individuals, are retail
sales and subject to the sales
tax.
Two other rulings. one refer
ring to the sale of cotton seed by
gins, or merchants, and the other
having to do with sales made by
dealers in horses and mules, were
also issued.
The sale of cotton seed by gins
or merchants who are not the
growers of the seed, when sold
to others for processing or man
ufacture. shall be classified as a
wholesale sale and hence subject
to the wholesale tax of one
twenty-fifth of one per cent, al.
though the sale of cotton seed
by the farmer who grows it, re-
CARELESS of for what purpose, is
not taxable.
The ruling with regard to the
sale of horses, mules. cattle and
other livestock, holds that if the
dealers in such livestock are not
the breeders and are not selling
such livestock for resale, that the
sales are hence retail and subject
to the 3 per cent sales tax. Thus
farmer may sell a horse, mule,
cow or other animal he has raised
to another without charging or
collecting the sales tax. But if
he sells a horse. mule, cow or
pig he has not raised, and is thus
dealer in livestock. he must
collect the sales tax. But if such
livestock is purchased for resale,
and not for the use of the person
buying it, it is not taxable.
