work in this medium she has of late been Civ
ing chief attention. Mrs. Totten's sculpture has
for the most part set FORTH and charmingly, fig
ures In Swedish folklore and American nursery
rhyme heroes. 1t has been both imaginative
and Illustrative. and these same qualities find
expression in her paintings.
In her large living room is hung at present
q painting which she has lately produced, Sun
set Over a City" The city apparently is seen
from height. with dark roofs strongly massed
The sunse. glows from beneath dark clouds,
the effect is dramatic, and against the dark sky
is the figure of an angel, while in the clouds
are suggestions of other heavenly hosts. This
picture is a panel with a rounded top like an
arched window or doorway. Mrs. TottSu has
painted another panel in this same shape. THE
Annunciation,' in which the Virgin, essentially
Scandinavian in type. golden haired. slight of
form, is seen kneeling on a rock, with the sea
and rocky pronlontorieS a background. The
left half of the canvas is occupied by the Angel
Of the Annunciation. The composition Is ad-
mirably balanced, very unusual, and at the same
time appealing
Quite different and yet in the same iwagina-
tive strain series of paintings the ihemes
of which are taken from the Apocalypse ~nd the
teachings of Swedenborg. One is of the Last
judgment" Another, The Angel Of the Last
Day; q third. The Way of wisdom" All are
thoughtful and thought provoking, illustrative
and at the same time decorative.

ing first and gradually brought down to the first
story It is the dome that is being cast at the
present time and a large part Of it is already
finished. In the building itself and in this
ornamental concrete for the dome there Is a
vast amount Of symbolism but to the average
onlooker it will be the beauty of the work rather
than the symbolism that appeals. The whole
surface Of this great dome will be covered, when
completed, by open-work designs in concrete
having the appearance of stone in lace-like
pattern, through the openings of which will
shine forth the interior light This casting is
being done with great skill in huge sections
which have first been modelled, then cast in
plaster, then recast in cement. The latter Is
a mixture of broken white quartz and white
sand the quartz giving a most interesting
rough texture and one which sparkles just
enough to have life The lace-hke pattern

HEAVY TAXES
AGAINST CARS
By MELVIN LORD
United Press Staff Correspondent
G AGD n6Ehrnr0 ,n,.i1 10 IOr.nni


SACRAMENTO, April 18. Especial
to The Press)-With the 1888 SeS-
sion of the legislature drawing to
close, the fight over taxes directly
affecting California motorists is
reaching climax.
Opponents of plans to divert gas
oline tax funds are standing firm
on the ground any such diversion
would mean an additional levy on
motorists Of the state.
In support of the contention that
motorists already are carrying IL
heavy tax burden, a report just COM
rleted by the state board of equali-
Zation SHOWS that automobile own
ers are paying taxes on 1855, ,143
cars, exclusive OF trucks, with an
assessed vaiuation of mcre than
SITS, 100000.
The report showed that in I'M
perial county there are 10,327 auto
mobiles with an assessed valuation
Of 1929, ,430 on the tax rolls.
Taxes on these cars, officials
pointed out, are paid in addition
to the Scent gasoline tax which
must be paid if the cars are to be
operated.
Proponents of gasoline diversion
proposals, however, take the stand
the gasoline fund could stand an
additional burden during the pres
ent economic crisis because the
construction of highways is not SO
important as other functions, in
Guiding social welfare activities.

FEDERAL TAX
MUST BE PAID
ON ALL BEER

Galen H. WEIGH, collector of in
ternal revenue, has announced that
every manufacturer, importer,
wholesaler and retailer of the new
legal 80 beer must pay special tax
to his office for the privilege Of
conducting such business, or be sub
ject to prosecution in the United
States court, and to heavy penal
ties.
Brewers must pay $1,000, whole
salers must pay $50, and retailers
must pay $40 per fiscal year. This
special tax is payable from the first
day of the month in which the
business is commenced, to the sue
ceeding June so and is prorated on
the annual amount. Failure to pay
the special tax in the calendar
month in which the business is be-
gun, incurs a penalty of 25 per cent
of the tax, and also a specific pen
atty of $500.
A wholesaler is any person, firm
or corporation who or which sells
five gallons or more to one person;
a retailer is one who sells less than
five gallons to one person. Any
person who sells in both classes
must pay both taxes. Every brewer
and dealer must pay the special
tax for each place of business op-
Grated by him. An importer may
be either a wholesaler or, retailer,
or both.
Collector Welch stated that the
tax on the beer is $5 per barrel of
not over 81 gallons, and is payable
by the brewer before the beer can
be removed from the brewery or
by the importer before removal from
the bonded warehouse if imported.
This tax is represented by ferment-
ed liquor stamps which must be at
tached to the barrels and cancelled.
Collector WEIGH expects to start
an investigation of all dealers in
fermented liquors after May l. Any
person who has sold beer in April
and has not paid special tax in his
proper class or classes before May
lst will be penalized and the case
reported to the bureau for possible
| prosecution.
All special taxes must be paid by
certified check, post office money
order or cash-no other form of re-
mittance can be accepted - and
must be accompanied by form Il
properly filled out signed and sworn
to. Persons liable can secure form
II by calling at or writing to Col
lector Welch's office, 939 South
Broadway, Los Angeles.

delegations. Answers were given inl-
mediately either by Schvernik or his
assistant Abolin, and both questions
and answers were Immediately trans
lated to the delegations, sitting
grouped about tables,
Some Of the more important ques-
lions and answers were as follows:
Question from several delegations:
If the Soviet Union develops a great
industry like capitalist countries, will
there be crisis of overproduction as
now exists in capitalist countries?
Answer by Schvernik: According
to the next Five-Year Plan there will
be yearly increase in production
Of 13 per cent. The demand increases
much more rapidly than that. Such
demand as comes from the rising
standards of living Of 100000 peo-
pie can not be oversupplied for many
years, if ever. However If such q
condition were ever reached, we could
switch from one line of production to
another, or we could reduce the work
day to any point. We have planned
economy and we can do anything we
wish with it.
Question: Why is there difference
in wage rates in the Soviet Union2
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1933-12-09

lawyer 1OI MID
Mr.. Odenheimer, head of the mill
wants a union which he can control
fully. But the many hundreds of
mill hands who joined the U.TW.A
are very much disguised with 1t, not
only as regards Mrs. Bordelon'S case,
but because over 40 per cent of the
rank and file members of the union
local in the Lane mill never received
their membership books.
OF course, the union officers regu-
larry collected the assessments from
the members. According to Mrs. Bor-
delon, the U.T.WA. there is now
ready to fall to pieces from crooked
planning, the recent sell-out, the fail
ure of the U.TW.A. to apply honestly
the rules of the N.RA.
The various officials at the mill
refused from first to last to give Mrs
Bordelon any explanation as to why
she was permanently black-balled at
the time of her arrest. The workers
who might have been called on to
testify in Mrs. Bordelon'S case were
so afraid Of losing their jobs that they
all SlQe-SCeppeQ.
Machines Speeded Up
Before the MIRA. the working DAY
at the Lane mill was rated at IL
hours, but the people had to work
II or 111s hours. After the N.RA
Odenheimer speeded up the machines
so that the output in 8 hours hao
to equal what used to be done in
111a hours. The MIRA. made some
change in salary there. Before the
code was set in the mill, Mrs. Bod
delon earned up to So a week, but
never over SO, and she worked there
from Nov, 1892 till Sept, 1888. Then

play in these lay-offs? Their role
is as always when the miners are
attacked-they do nothing. The
U.M.WA. officials transfer from the
union payroll to the relief payroll.
AS for instance Fred Gullick, the
Board Member on the Ellsworth
branch. Now he is a relief investi-
gator for the Somerset township. He
is again placed in a position to de-
fend the interests of the bosses, to
stool pigeon for them, to fight against
the miners. Other leaders both To-
cal and sectional will be placed in
the same position in their territories.
The bosses know that there are no
better watch dogs and stool pigeons
than these leaders"
Unemployed Councils Organize.
The National Miners Union is or
ganizing all of its forces to establish
broad Unemployed Councils in every
town and mine. 1t is now necessary
for the left wing forces in the UNI
WA. locals to fight for the mass af-
filiation Of these locals to the Unem-
ployed Councils. The local unions of
the U.M.W.A., the N.M.U. locals and
groups, shall call upon all the work
ers' and farmers organization in
their territories to affiliate to the I'm
employed Councils. There has never
been time in the past more favorable
for this work than now. And our
movement must give leadership to the
struggle for more relief, and utilize
all these struggles for the fight for
Workers Unemployment Insurance
Bill.
The opportunity presents itself also
to send real mass delegation to the
Unemployed Councils National Con-
vention that is to be held in Wash
