Claude W. Owens Telegram
To Roosevelt Expresses the
View of District Group

Opposition to plans for a one
man government of the District
of Columbia, particularly if a
nonresident were chosen as gov
ernor, is expressed in a telegram
signed by Claude w. Owen, presi-
dent of the Washington Board
of Trade, sent to President RooSe-
velt as an expression of that or
ganization's views.
The telegram points out that
the District has little enough to
say about it's affairs anyhow,
and that the small degree of
representation now provided by
local commissioners ought to be
continued. The text of the mes
sage, in part, follows:
"The Washington Board of
Trade has read with interest
the recurring newspaper &C
counts stating that you are
considering changing the form
Of government for the District
of Columbia to One-man gov
ernorship or q similar set-up.
"The people Of the District
are naturally considerably in.

S31,OOO,OOO and $36,OOO,OOO a
year in distinctly municipal
taxes and Federal taxes in an
amount larger than IL of the
States combined.
WITHOUT RIGHTS

right of suffrage nor any voice
whatsoever in the disposition
of the tax money SO raised

DR.. Luther at first refused to see

He then explained, While standing
nervously behind a chair, that he
could say nothing at all about

Finally conserving to listen to
one question" he was asked:
rs it true that two Nazis in uni

The ambassador flushed angrily,
and said, That is not true at all.

He then read a prepared state

Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April 14.-Evi-
dence that laborers are being CO.
creed to oppose passage Of the
thirty work week bill was
brought to light today by Senator
Frederick Van Mugs.
The Hoosier Democrat had read
to the senate a letter he received
from an employe of the Continental
Steel Corporation Of Kokomo, Ind,
explaining that he had written let
tiers of protest under the yelled
threat of discharge"
Inclosed with the steel workers
letter was a yellow slip, which the
writer said was passed out to all en-
ployes by the day foreman. and
which bore the short, peremptory
command:
please write to the following
three men protesting the six-hour
day act. Use your own stationery
and bring to the hot mill office We
will seal and stamp. Congressman
Glenn Griswold, Senator Frederick
Van Nuys. Senator Arthur Robin

"but were requested to write out our
protests on the shortest kind Of
notice and return same, unsealed
and unStamped, to our department
office, so the company could be
certain that our protests were OF a
nature acceptable to officials.
1T is evident that the last vestige
of free American institutions,
especially those involving human
labor, has faded from the picture
as far as the company is concerned.
THE deplorable state of affairs
existing in this corporation relative
to wage scales and working con-
ditions is almost incomprehensible
to one not in close contact with
them. We have less than 40 per
cent OF our 1929 wage scale left us
at present, and when the diminished
number of work days also are taken
into consideration it means between
30 per cent and 80 per cent of our
1929 purchasing power is gone.

I'VE have had a number of wage
cuts in the last two years and the
last coming in February of this year

class was cut 30 per cent, another 30

R~ECOvERY,s WORST ENEMY

Taxation can become so oppressive
that it defeats the very purpose for which
it wa levied" said Alfred E. Smith re-
Gently. "And what becomes of it? It is
charged as a debt against the very peo-
pie it was designed to help"
That is especially applicable in times
Of stress, when government-federal,
state and loal-is making laudible efforts
to stimclate recovery. Bills are passed
designed to raise the public's purchasing
poWer-and then the danger appears
that the cost of putting their provisions
into action will in itself be a major detri-
ment to purchasing and spending. Acts
, seeking to put men to work become part
Of the law-and it is possible, If they are
based on faulty premises, for them to de
stroy jobs through taxation, instead Of
creating more.
There is a growing feeling on the
part OF business men, large and small,
that the next essential step on the road
toward nOrmalcy should be definite re
auctions in the cost Of government. The
tax collector has closed thousands of COM
mercial doors, foreclosed on a multitude
of farms, deprived workers of their jobs
and homes. He is the best friend hard
times has. He's recovery's worst enemy.
More efficient and economical gov
eminent, all the way from Washington
to the smallest cOcnty seat-that's the
need of the hour.

THE IDEAL FOR TRANSPORTATION

Ina recent address, Joseph B. Eastman,
Federal Co-ordinator of Transportation,
said: "The railroad industry is going
through one Of its periodic crises, a crisis
which this time is heightened by the CO.
incidence of economic depression and the
new competitive conditions. The truck,
the bus, the private automobile, the air
plane, the pipe lines, the electric trans
mission line, the waterways-they are
all here, they are here to stay, and they
make a formidable array.
"The end to pursue is a ~transporta-
ton system which will make use of each
of the various agencies for the purpose to
which it is best adapted, and cut out du-
pllcatlOn and waste In many in
stances these other transportation agen-
railroad service to the great advantage
of all concerned"
At the moment, as the Railway Age
points out, we are applying a planned
economy" to the railroads, involving elm
nation of unnecessary competition and
reduction of facilities which dcplicate
each other, and at the same time we are
permitting "planless economy" to con-
tinue in transportation in general, max
ing it infinitely more difficult for the rail
roads to share in recovery. This encour-
ages extremely wastefcl transport prac-
tees which must eventually be paid for
by the public.
Mr.. Eastman's ideal is the thing to
be sought-a balanced, equitably regu-
lated system Of transportation, which
regulates each type of carrier to the place
where it can be of greatest service to the
shipping and travelling public. Any other
course is economically and socially I'M
justifiable.

EDITORIAL
A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS
CODE

There is mounting opposition, espec-
tally on the part of dairy farmers in the
New York milk shed and elsewhere, to
certain provisions in the proposed nation
al trucking code which is now being con-
sidered and revised by government off
Gals and the trucking industry.
The code is designed to outlaw I'M
fair ompetition, and to do away with I'M
economic trucking practices-purposes
which deserve and receive full public sup
port. But there is danger that, in accom-
plishing this, t~echnicalities will arise
which will make the letter of the code de-
feat it's spirit. For example under the
proposed code no farmer could haul a
~neighbor's milk, hay or other produce to
market for compensation even once a
year, without filing a schedule of rates
securing a license or permit, securing and
displaying insignia and complying with
all the rules applicable to a regular COM
mercial trucker. No farmer driving in
to town could bring back a few bags Of
feed for his neighbor, if he were paid
for it, without doing precisely the same
things.
Inbrief, the code would, to a large
extent, prevent farmers from following
the age-old practice of " swapping" work,
and would compel every farmer to either
do his own hauling or hire a ommercial
trucker every time he wanted a crate of
eggs or a half-dozen cans of milk taken
70 town for shipment, or wanted a load
of fertilizer brought back. According to
one authority, the code would raise far
mers' trucking costs so to Is per cent at
a time when agriculture is fighting for its
very existence.
1t is one thing to permit an industry
to clean it's own house-and another to
lay down regulations which make COM
mon, time-honored practices illegal.
The Omaha guide., 1933-12-16

When the gasoline tax first became
popular, shortly following the war, it had
an excellent argument to recommend it:
That the motorist should pay a fair share
of the cost of building and maintaining
the highways over which he drives.
That's still an excellent argument
for a reasonable gas tax. But the motor
list has been getting it inthe neck to a
constantly increasing degree. He's buy
ing highways he never gets. He's main
tanning others that don't exist.
In 1892, according to recently pub
lished figures, the tax revenue from gaso-
line and automobiles in one state was 271
per cent of all moneys spent for roads,. In
some states it was $50 per cent. For the
nation as a whole, it was above 100 per
cent. Yet other socrces of revenue had
to be drawn upon to keep up road build
ing and maintenance. Why? Because
only 70 per cent Of the income from these
special additional road taxes was actual
" used for roadside rest going for
other purposes.
The other purposes, needless to say,
didn't fall within the province Of motor
ING. They may have been necessary and
desirable, but they should have been paid
for out of general funds, contributed by
all taxpayers. AS it was, the motorist
was and is suffering the most unjust kind
Of class taxation. He pays twice where
others pay once-first through his gen
eral taxes, then through special automo-
The Omaha guide., 1933-12-16

bile taxes. He is, in common parlance,
the guy who takes it.
There are signs that worm motorist
is turning. He's learned that SO long as
he keeps quiet he's going to be in for
more and more unjust discrimination.
And he'd better turn fast if he is to keep
the cost of running his car from becom-
ing even more prohibitive than it is at
present.

VIENNA, Austria. May 31.-Fierce
exchanges are proceeding between
Austrian Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss
and Theo Habischt, Nazi deputy in
the German Reichstsg, appointed to
superintend the Nazi movement in
Austria, who accuses DollfuSs of firt-
ing with the Nazis.
Habischt has declared that four OF
the Dollfuss cabinet ministers favor
the entrance of NaZis into the govern
ment. Habischt twice saw DollfusS
and suggested that he make coali-
tion and call new elections. Dollfuss
apparently refused In a statement
today he vigorously denied any negotia-
tions in which he might have fallen
victim Of the NaZi wiles.
Today Little Austria decides what
answer 1t will make to its estranged
big brother, Germany. The cabinet
meeting late this afternoon, it is ex-
pected, will agree on the following re-
talitory measures to the German decree
forbidding German tourists to come to
Austria except on the payment OF
1000 marks for a visa.
1. Austria will establish a small fee
for Austrians visiting Germany.
2. The Austrian government will di-
rectly compensate the Austrian hotels
for their losses of German tourists,
this traffic being estimated at $500, 900.
8. Austria is expected to take meas
ures to restrict the import of German
goods to the extent of $25,000, 900 an
nually, thus evening the Austro-
German trade balance.
Dollfuss also may order the dissolu-
ton of the NaN party in Austria, but
at the moment this is considered un-
likely.
