Partial Cessation of Tax Raids on Car Owners By
 State Legislatures Cited As Hopeful

purposes continues to cause con- cern, notable battles to prevent new diversions have been won in the current sessions of the legislatures. Alabama, Idaho, North Carolina and New York offer instances Of the overwhelming defeat of such proposals, although the latter state continued its diversion program on the basis of the one cent a gallon tax increase of last year.
 "Of course, the motive behind the lowering of registration fees was not so much sympathy for the car owners, as it was the realiza- tion on the part of the states that with registration declining the rate of 100000 a monh, the golden flow of revenue from the gasoline pump was drying up. The ten states which have already put reductions into effect, are: Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebras- ahd Washington. It will be readily seen that the majority of these arc in sections where, due to economic conditions, thousands were unable to buy tags for their cars.
 "Fourteen states have thus for strengthened their gasoline tax laws in order to prevent bootleg ging and evasion. These states are: Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina. Ok lahoma, Oregon, Texas. Utah and Washington"

LOWELL STRIKE
 | CAUSED RIOT IN CITY STREETS
$500 Strikers Stormed 20 Carloads of Strike Breakers and Police Drove Attackers Back

Lowell, Mass, May 5-(UP)- Extra police to-day guarded Low elPs shoe strike zones against a re- currence of riotous scenes that re- suited in several minor casualties and three arrests last night.
 The trouble started when some of the city's $500 strikers stormed 20 carloads of strike breakers who were leaving the Becker Brothers plant after the days work,
 Police drew their nightsticks and charged sullen crowd on Bridge street to open a path for the >strike-breakers' automobiles.
 Stones. flew. Automobile win. dows and windshields were shat tered. A piece of iron pipe was hurled through window of a nearby building. A policeman in plainclothes, mistaken for a strike- breaker, was mobbed and was forced to hold off his attackers at gunpoint. Two of those arrested were strikers and the other a strike sympathizer. All were charged with stoning strike-break- CTS cars.
 While enroute to work here yes- terday from his Hudson, N. H., home, George Florence, 22, a strike-breaker was shot in the eye. It developed last night, however. that he was not a victim of the strike but that the shooting oc- cured when a gun in the automo- bile of a fellow strike-breaker was discharged accidentally. Florence may lose the sight of one eye.
 The strike began four weeks ago. Higher wages and revised work ing hours are the goals.

SOCIAL WORKERS CONVENE IN CITY TO-DAY
|CANDM WILBE RELEASED FROM
 CONFINEMENT
Given Freedom Because Govt Does Not Wish to Be Responsible for His Death

Madras, India, May. 5-(UP) = Mahatma M. K. Gaudhi will be re- leased internationally from his long Imprisonment on Saturday, the United Press learned. on the highest authority today.
 The release will be ordered by the Indian government because it does not wish to accept responst- bility fo rthe outcome of the three weeks fast which Gandhi intends to begin Monday.
 Despite the appeals of dozens of influential Indians, Gandhi, in his cell in the Poona jail remained firm in his intention to fast in be- half of the untouchables, the gov ernment learned. It was feared that the aged leader of the nation alists movement might die before his self imposed ordeal was com pleted, and eventually that could result in widespread disorders. His death would be especially danger ous if 1t came while he was in jail.
 Gandhi was imprisoned in Jan uary, 1882, a few weeks after he returned from the Indian round table conference which failed to reach an agreement conforming with his ideals for his movement. He has been held lat the kings pleasure" since, because of his re- fusal to cal off the civil disobedi- ence campaign. Last September he abandoned a "fast unto death" after six days when Hindu lead CTS accepted a compromise on the "untouchable" problem.

FARMERS TRY W STARYE CTTIES BY BIG SIRKl
They Have Eight Days in' Which to Form Plans
 for Nation Wide Protest
 Against Conditions

Des Moines, 1a-, May s-(UF)-- Radical farm leaders set out to- day on a whirlwind campaign tos organize, in a bare eight days, 8s national farm strike designed to starve the nations cities into join- ing in forcing Congress to enact the farmers own relief program.
 With the 1000 farmers at the Farmers National Holiday AssO- citation convention as a neucleus. Milo Reno, their president, hoped to spread the movement to every state by May 13, a week from to- morrow, when the strike is sched- uled to start.
 John Simpson; of Oklahoma, { president of the farmers unfons and A. c. Townley, organizer Of the famous non-partisan league which once was a power In the near northwest, were expected to- be Reno's first lieutenants in the strike. ,,
 Much of the organization work has been done already in Reno's two years of tours through agri- cultural communities demanding q belligerent farm movement But only 24 states were represented at the convention which voted for the strike late yesterday, and there is much to do in the brief time left if the strike is to be even partly effective.
 Buying nothing, sell nothing. do nothing" will be the slogan of the strike against depression pri-. ces, mortgage foreclosures and high interest.
 The strike is scheduled to con- tinue until Reno and committees of IA decide that their relief de- mands have been met. The directorate drew up . five-3 point program for submission to Congress:
 (D-Guaranteed cost of produc-' tion for all farm products in dos mestic markets. (2)-Passage of the Frazier bill to refinance farm mortgages at long term, low interest rates.
 (3)-Passage of the Wheeler, silver remonetization bill. (4-Payment of the soldiers bonus by issuance of treasury cer- tificates.
 (5)-Upward revision of inheri-, tance, income and gift taxes to ! ease the property tax burden.

Washington, D. C., May 5-Par- tial cessation of tax raids on pas senger car owners by the state leg islatures was cited by the Ameri- can Automobile Association today as affording hope that the begin ming of a "new deal" for the mo- torists may be in sight.
 The A. A. A. statement was bas- ed on an analysis of motor legis- lation enacted by twenty-six state legislatures that have adjourned to date.
 "Our analysis would seem to in- dicate that the legislatures have begun to take cognizance of the widespread resentment of the pas senger car owners of the country over the tax burdens heaped on them and the discrimination wis., tied on them in the past" Thos. P. Henry of Detroit, Mich., presi- dent of the national motoring body declared.
 Following are some of the fa- vorable trends cited by MT. Henry:
 Fewer raids on the motorist than in previous years through gas- oline tax increases.
 Defeat of some proposals for wholesale diversion of motor vehi-
 Defeat in several legislatures of bills providing for the blending of alcohol with gasoline and which would greatly increase the cost of motor fuel to highway users.
 Reduction by many states of H- cense tag fees.
 Passage by several states of laws designed to bring the boot logging of gasoline under control.
 Enactment of other important measures, such as the liberaltzing of laws affecting nonresident mo- torists; certificate of title laws and other features of the uniform mo- tor vehicle code: guest suit laws and laws strengthening state high way patrols.
 "These things" said MT. Henry, fare cited not to indicate or to in- innate that all is well with the mo- torists, but only as fragmentary evidence that the motor vehicle owners are beginning to make a determined stand after a long ser ies of disastrous retreats. The leg islatures that are still in session may offset whatever gains have been made" He continued:
 ITO date, only two states. name ly, Arizona and Oregon, have in creased gasoline tax rates, as com pared to boosts in as many as ten states in a single year in the past. Defeat of the proposal calling for an increase in the gasoline tax rate in New York was decided victory, as car owners of that state use eleven per cent of the motor fuel produced in this country.
