OFFICIALS ACT
TO SETTLE
PRICE ROW
Seal and Howe to Request
Hearings on Proposed
License Clause
BY LOUIS E. WHITE


An offer to process all the sur
plus milk which is made available
to the District for 3 cents a gal
lon-2 cents cheaper than the
usual coSt-waS made to the Dis
trict Government today by one OF
the city's large diaries.
Announcement of the offer was
made by Elwood Seal, assistant
Corporation Counsel, who is han
ding the project of the local Gov
eminent to buy up all available
surplus milk for distribution to
relief clients. He would not dis
close the name of the dairy that
had made the offer.
A movement was under way to-
day to bring the unsettled Situa-
ton in the milk market to a head.
Initial steps in the movement
were taken yesterday at confer
ence attended by Frederic c.
Howe, Consumers Council of the
AAA; Mr.. Seal, Mrs. Boyle, Con-
Sumers' Council for the District,
and representative of the Fed.
eral Trade Commission.
Price Discussed
Discussion at that conference,
1t was learned, centered around
the local milk situation generally,
and specifically the project of the
local Government to purchase
cheap milk for relief clients, and
the recent announcement from
the Maryland-Virginia Milk Pro-
ducerS' Association that they are
going to ask for a four cent-a-
gallon increase for their product.
At yesterdays conference the
suggestion was made that a joint
statement be issued by DR.. Howe
and Mr.. Seal demanding that if
the producers do compel the dis
tributorS to pay an additional cent
a quart for the milk, the pro-
ducers make a public justifica-
ton for the increase, and that if
that was satisfactory, the distribu-
tors be compelled to make pub
lie justification as to why they
would not be able to absorb the
increase instead of passing it on
to the consumers.
Authority Doubted
Mr.. Seal and DR.. Howe, however,
feel that they have no authority
for demanding such statement Of
justification from the producers Or
distributors, and that if the juSti-
fication was not satisfactory they
have no authority to prevent the
increase from being put in effect
and eventually passed on to the
consumer,
Today, however, a new idea was
hit upon. It was that Mr.. Seal
and DR.. Howe go to the AAA Off
Gals and impress them with the
unsettled situation here, and re-
quest that in view of that, hear
ingS be held on the proposed Ii
censing agreement which the pro-
ducers have presented to the AAA.
It was explained by AAA Of
ficials that the customary pro-
cedure is for those who present
the proposed agreements to re-
quest a hearing.
The AAA heads say that the
hearing was to be held several
weeks ago, but that delay was
caused by virtue of the fact that
the Bureau legal staff desired to
give further study to the proposal.
Since that time, it was ex-
planned, there has been no urge
from the producers to hurry the
hearing, and Furthermore the AAA
heads have felt that it may be bet
ter to hold off the hearings until
a decision is reached concerning
the milk relief project here.

WORK ON PARKER
DAM HALTED BY OR
DER OF SEC. ICKES

To prevent workmen from in
vading Arizona territory until
this states rights in connection
with the proposed dam have
been established legally and
guaranteed by contract, Gov.
Moeur declared martial law and
ordered the troops to the scene.
Although the martial law proc
lamation was issued Saturday,
the federal government made
no move until Arizona had
proved its determination to back
up irs position by dispatching
rihemen and machine gunners
from Phoenix and Prescott to
enforce the edict.
The federal surrender came
quickly when news dispatches
informed Washington that sol
diers of the Arizona guard were
enroute across the desert to the
dam site.
As a truck train carrying Ari-
zona's "expeditionary force"
rumblcd from Phoenix to Parker
in a display of force to back up
the chief executives proclama-
tion establishing marti Il law at
the site of the proposed Parker
diversion dam, Harold L. Ickes,
secretary of the interior, capitu-
lated He ordered the federal
reclamation bureau to halt plans
for construction work on the
Arizona side of the river.
Governor Moeur first had wir-
ed Secretary Ickes on Novem-
Der 9TH asking that work be
stopped until a contract pend
ing between the federal govern
ment and Arizona, alotting this
state 2,S00,000 acre feet of water
from Boulder dam and half the
power generated at the Parker
diversion dam, could be signed
and ratified by the Arizona leg
islature. He received no ans
wer. Saturday he telegraphed
President Roosevelt that he had
declared martial law, but would
rescind it if the government
would accede to his request for
delay in the construction pro-
gram. Again his message went
unanswered, until the troops
modified.

.SCIOT ANNUAL CONVENTION
IN PHOENIX This WEEK

More than 5000 visitors are
expected to attend the annual
convention of the Ancient Egy-
ption Order of Sciots. Practi-
cally all forms Of varity enter
tainment will be enjoyed. The
public is invited to many events
of the four days of festivities.
The organization was institu-
ted some years ago in Santa
Barbara and has spread along
the coast. This is the first time
it has left the coast and invaded
the hinterland. The Sciot is
to be simil r t. an older organ
ization formed in the east known
as "Grotto."
A qualification for member
ship is membership of the Blue
Lodge Of Masonry which had
never had an outlet for playful
ness such as the Shriners give
the Masons of the more advan-
ced degrees, or such as the Do
keys give to the Knights of
Pythias. But the Sciots have
since made up for the long per-
iod Of restraint upon the Blue
Lodge.
The uniforms and equipment
of the Sciots are more colorful
than those of any other organi-
zatiOn.

HOW MUCH TAXES
ARE YOU PAYING

II you have an annual income
OF 50. $50 or less, how much of
il goes for taxes?
There's a good chance that
you will say none inasmuch
as your in ONE is below the
level reached by the income
tax, and you may have little or
no property on which taxes
must be paid.
But. according 10 an article
by Royal r. Munger in the
Chicago Daily News. your taxes
come TO $3.50 a year. Sl20 Of
this represents taxes included IN
your rent--the landlord pays
them and passes the cost on TO
you. 500 90 is included in the
price OF your family's food the
farmer, the pfocesser, the dis
tributor and retailer pay them.
and they become part Of the
cost OF everything in the groc-
cry store. S24 100 is included in
the clothing, furniture and sim
liar items you and your depend
ents purchase here again, man
ufacturers, middlemen and re-
tailers are all heavily taxed and
must pass their taxes on to the
public.
This totals $40. Finally,
says Mr.. Munger, other indi-
rect tax burdens that effect the
cost Of living are estimated TO
take $40 more out OF your
family's 81. .0s0 annual income.
On a percentage basis. rs re
suit, you pay almost twenty per
cent of all you earn to govern
ment.
Too many people have accept
ed the fanciful theory that the
rich pay all the taxes while the
rest nf us get the benefits for
nothing.
No one escapes taxes-no one
ever will. And the average
man, with a small or medium
income, would gain most from
retrenchment in tax levies, re-
gardless OF the guise under
which they may be labeled.
