Robert LaFollette of Wisconsin in

$500, 100000 for a working program.
About three years ago. W. R.
Hearst caught the fever and began
to spread the propaganda. He said
$500, 000 $1,000. Somewhere down in
New York state there was a citizen
that just took in and said nothing. he
waited for an opportunity to have his
say and today he has made LaFoll.

up in your brains with the 12O. OOO,-
900 American citizens and see if you
all aren't millionaires now. What a
President we have and is he think
ing of the forgotten man?
The forgotten man just can't lose
now. The Farm initiation bill says
you can't lose your farm. The Two
Billion Dollar Home Loan Bill says
you can't lose your home. The Morat-
orium Insurance Act says you can't
lose your insurance. The Legal Money
Tender Act puts the value in your
real estate that heretofore, has been
considered only in gold.
The Deposit Guarantee Act says
you can't lose your cash even if it is
in a bank. And if you've got a job you
can't lose your old lady and of
course. nobody wants the children.
At last, the sanctity of the Amer
lean home is pretty well secured on
the value therein now instead Of the
gold on Wall St. What a President
we now have. Where has he been?
God Lord, let him live and enjoy good
health and keep the good work going.

Thousands Play Santa Claus

Flood of Gifts Flo,os Into Dozen 7 heaters

Washington-or, at any rate. cred

Santa Claus today to its thousands of
needy children.
From all directions they came-men
and women. boys and girls, all bearing
gifts calculated to bring joy to the heart
OF some poor youngster, and all headed
for one or another of the dozen "toy
matinees" presented by The Star and
the Warner Bros. theaters.
The weather fell far short of being
ideal, but nobody seemed to mind. The
general feeling seemed to be that 1t
was. at least. much better than last
years "toy matinee" weather.
Although the three downtown movie
houses were advertised to open at $50
am. and the nine scattered through
the various residential sections were
scheduled to follow suit half an hour
later. the volunteer Santa Clauses and
their gifts began arriving considerably
in advance of those times.

mission, was Jolly well pleased" with
the enthusiasm with which residents Of
all sections of the Capital responded to
his pleas for help.

Reports from Justice Department
men 60 today to Attorney General
Cummings for use in an apparently
inevitable court contest over the right
Of the National Labor Board to super
wise elections at which employees select
persons to represent them in collec-
tive bargaining.
The Federal agents yesterday watched
orderly balloting at plants Of the Weir
ton Steel Co. at Weirton and Clarks-
burg. w. Va, and Steubenville. Ohio.
Ernest T. Wier, chairman Of the Weir
ton company, refused to let National

violation of the steel code; second. to
suggest that the National Compliance
Board take away Weirton's blue eagle.
He said he would wait until the Labor
Board had decided upon its course.
Board Gathers Facts.
The board. meanwhile, had gathered
facts through its own representatives
which its members said they believed
would impel a Federal Judge to enjoin
Weir from interfering with the bal
loting. Weir still contended the board
had violated the original agreement,
which he thought gave the company
union" the right to run the election.
In all around 1880 employees OF
the Weirton plants chose 49 men to
represent them in wage-hour negotia-
tions with their employers. 1t was
argued by the Labor Board that the
supervising company union did not
really and freely represent the work.

an election Is held by company

his boss"
Case Bound for Courts.
Weir said the company union was
representative and that, furthermore,
he did not intend to continue arguing
with johnson in the newspapers.
Asked about the case last night,
johnson said:
II think it's bound for the courts.
The sooner we settle it, the better"
Both johnson and Chairman Wagner
of the Labor Board. however, were re-
luctant to 60 further than to insure
what they term fair chance for the
workers to choose their representatives
for collective bargaining.
johnson said he understood Wagner
wanted him to hold up code violation
proceedings until the Labor Boards
course was fixed, and that he was
willing to wait.
The administrator als0 expressed re-
gret that Weir was party to the dis
pute.
weir helped me in the steel code
negotiations more than any one else, "
he said.
johnson denied there had been any
acrimonious" debate between Weir
and himself. When he talked with
Weir Thursday by long distance phone.
Johnson said, he merely had tried to
get hip to play ball."

CORPORATION TAX
CHANGES FOUGHT
Treasury Opposes EIimina-
tion of Consolidated Re-
turns of Subsidiaries.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Differences between the Treasury and
the House Ways and Means Committee
over the advisability of abolishing the
privilege Of corporations to file con-
solidated tax returns were aired today
at resumption of hearings on the pro-
posed new revenue bill.
Representative Hill, Democrat, of
Washington. chairman of the subcom-
mittee which drew the legislative recon-
mendation, said his group felt the con-
solidated returns should be eliminated
because large corporations were es-
Gaping the payment of large sums Of
tax they would have to pay If each
subsidiary was considered a separate
business. entity" - .>------e-------ss
Prof. Roswell Magill. Treasury tax
expert, explained his department op-
posed the elimination on the ground
that corporations would continue to
avoid larger taxes by making inter-
company contracts to show losses for
certain subsidiaries to offset earnings
of Others
No Advantage Seen.
Magill said the consolidated return
grew out of 1.-The practice Of corpora
tions shifting income to evade the ex-
cess profits tax"
Pointing out the excess profit tax
-. 4 lnl ha
no advantage now in filing separate
returns"
Under the present law, corporations
pay a tax Of 1894 per cent and l per
cent additional If they make a con-
solidated return.
Magill suggested the situation might
be met by raising that / per cent dif-
ferential.
Regarding the Treasury's suggestion
that the committee consider the advis-
ability of re-enacting the excess profits
tax, Hill said the situation would be
reversed - the corporations would be
clamoring for the separate return only
and Congress would insist on the con-
solidated return"
Wants Experiment"
Representative Crowther, Republican,
OF new YOrk, suggested raising the OIL =
ferential another IL per cent to make
the consolidatedsnet income tax 16 per
cent.
"Since experiments are the cry of
the hour, want to be up to date" he
said.
Before today's meeting Chairman
Doughton OF the Ways and Means
Committee predicted a general revenue
bill could be drawn that would suit
both legislative and executive depart
ments despite wide differences in plans
proposed by the Treasury and the
House subcommittee
Discussing the new suggestions made,
and the exceptions taken by Acting
Secretary Morgenthau to- the subcom-
mittee's 80 proposals, Doughton told
newspaper men he did not regard the
Treasury's counter proposals as bar
to an agreement.
These are not serious differences, -
he said. I'VE invited the Treasurys
views and they are essential to writing
a bill intelligently.
"Our views, of course, were subject
to change. We didn't expect both to
agree"
One new Treasury suggestion was t.
require husbands and wives living to-
gether to file single income returns.
