ROOSEVELT
President Considers Differing
Plans; Payroll and Sales
Taxes Are Viewed

The Administrators plan for
recapturing prosperity by Stabiliz-
ing industry and inaugurating a
huge public works program was
before President Roosevelt today
for a decision on two vital fea-
lures.
The President faced the prob
lem Of determining how to en-
force fair trade agreements on IN
dustry and how to finance a $3,-
300, 900, 900 public works program
Three Proposals
Three plans were submitted
They were:
/. A broad processing or oc-
cupational tax, to be imposed
against an entire industry, with
exemptions granted to each unit
conforming to the Stabilization
agreement;
2. A Federal licensing of all
industries, with revocation Of
the licenses of any units violat-
ing the stabilization agreement;
3. Expansion of the unfair
practice" provision Of the anti
trust laws to include criminal
prosecution for violations Of the
proposed sterilization agree
ments.
Problem of Financing
On the question of financing
the public works program, the
President faced a choice Of:
l. Imposing a small general
sales tax on all industrial prod
ucts, with farm products ex-
empted.
2. A tax on tea and coffee,
with perhaps a few other excise
taxes added, or.
3. A small payroll tax, with
no exemptions.
The main provisions for Stabil
izing industry were agreed upon
by the Presidents advisers.
Control Board Feature
They called for voluntary trade
agreements to be negotiated by
each industry and touching work
ing hours, minimum wages, child
labor, competition price wars. OF
fixing minimum sales prices.
A Federal business control board
would be created to protect the
public. suspend antitrust laws
and enforce the agreements,
The crux of the plan was en-
forcement of the agreements
against recalcitrant industrial
units. The Presidents Congress
Sional advisers were divided over
the three plans, but Mr.. Roosevelt
was reported to favor processing
or occupational tax. which could
be imposed against an industry as
whole, with exemption of those
units abiding by the fair trade
agreement.
Meeting Bond Issue
This plan, therefore, was writ
ten into a draft of the proposed
legislation sent to him for his
approval, along with drafts of the
alternative enforcement plans.

clusively to provide jobs.

PRESIDENT TO GET
SUGAR AGREEMENT
New Sterilization Plan Soon Will
Be Ready for Official
Approval.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A new sugar stabilization agreement,
providing for larger quotas for Cuba
and the Philippines, was almost ready
| today to be laid before President Roose-
velt and farm act officials for approval.
The third and latest proposed agree
ment, if approved would be in effect
for three years. dating back to July l.
The allotment which Cuba will be
allowed to supply the domestic market
probably will be around 100000 raw
tons for this marketing year.
The Philippines sought 100000
tons. but it was described as doubtful
whether the final pact would allow that
quota. Present plans, however, were
to raise the figure for the islands more
than 100000 tons over the 955.920
| tons originally assigned. The central
| features are the provisions which as
| sign to the producing areas the amounts
they may supply to the United States
market.
In order to take care of the in
creased allotments for Cuba and the
Philippines-which would bring the
total allotment for the domestic mar
ket this year to about 100000 raw
tons-plans were made to set up q
sugar reserve corporation.
1t would operate probably through
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
funds and would hold in reserve addi-
tional quotas in case domestic interests
fail to produce the quotas assigned to
them.

Chicago, Dec. l8.-(R-The first ad-
vance in United States quotations on
gold this month went practically un-
noticed by the grain markets Mon
day, cereals showing q tendency to
sag.
Considerable selling Of grains was
attributed to income tax exigcncies.
All upturns In grain prices ran into

ed at Minneapolis and Kansas City.

Dec. 431a; May 5oh-A: oats unchang-
ed to Y lower and provisions un-
changed to Z cents decline.
Later, the wheat market scored frac-
tional gains, helped by comparative
firmness Of corn and oats prices.
Forecasts Of colder weather and Of
curtailment Of rural offerings Of corn
had some bullish influence. On the
other hand, wheat crop experts said
that II temperatures averaged below
normal. an effect would be to check
the activity Of parasitic wasps which
form the greatest enemy Of green
bugs which this season have appeared
earlier than usual southwest and are
menacing wheat.
Tending somewhat to strengthen
wheat values were advices that Off
cial estimates Of the 1888 Australian

shells, against 30 1000 900 last year.
