RETAIL TRADE MEN
HIT MAIL ORDERS
Dealers Claim Inability to
Meet Competition at
U. S. Hearing.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO. February Retail
trade dealers yesterday expressed their
optnions-vehemently mail order
competition, especially that Of Sears,
Roebuck g. Co.. as the Federal Trade
Commission pursued its inquiry into
alleged violations Of the Clayton act
by the Goodyear Tire g. Rubber Co.
The opinions in several casese were
50 strong they were expunged from
the record. All we're based on the
same premise-that their financial
difficulties we're directly traceable to
inability to meet the price competition
OF the mail order concern on tires Of
equal quality.
The dealers were put on the stand
by the commissions counsel in an
effort to sustain their contention that
because of price determinations by the
Goodyear company in favor Of Sears.
the latter has been able to undersell
competitors and thereby tend to set
up monopoly.
Harry A. Starr, whose retail tire
store is located opposite Sears store.
declared his tire sales were practically
eliminated because Of inability to meet
Sears prices. Others made similar
complaints.
George Gair, a Cicero dealer, as
serted that the so-called tire wars
| which broke out spasmodically during
depression years, were initiated by
| Sears.
Prof. p. G. Huntley Of Armour In
stiute Of Technology said tests which
he made proved to him that the tire
made by Goodyear for Sears was equal
or superior to other first-line tires
made by nationally advertised con-
| cerns

ADDRESSES
VIRGINIA SESSION
Revises Tax-InCrease Plan
to Stave Off Absolute De-
feat by Assembly.
BY Z Stan Correspondent Of The Star,

RICHMOND, Va, February 7.-Ap.
pearing before the General Assembly
for the first time since his inaugura-
ton, Gov. George c. Peery today an
nounced that he has revised his tax
increase program to eliminate the
proposed taxes on moving pictures
and dividends Of Virginia corpora-
tions. The eliminations amount to
$4,000 annually.
The Governors speech confirmed
rumors that have been going the
rounds Of the legislative circles that
he would offer a compromise in an
effort to save the increase program
from absolute defeat. In the bill in
troduced for him by Senator A. p.
Staples OF Roanoke 1t is proposed that
a revision Of present taxes and the
addition Of certain new ones would
increase the annual income by $l.16l,-
600, of which amount S1,OOO,OOO was
to go to schools and the remainder to
balance the budget.
Through the elimination Of the two
items proposed today the total con-
templated new revenues would amount
be designated for the use of schools
The Governors program has Gre
ated so much opposition that his ad.
visers feared the Assembly would turn
the whole thing down and today's
message was interpreted as an at
tempt to overcome this opposition
A severe blow to the tax increase
program was received yesterday when
Senator T. Russell Gather Of Win
chester, who introduced the admins
tration measure to insure full eight.
month school program and to guar
antee minimum salaries for teachers
announced that he is opposed to the
tax increase bill, the purpose OF which
Is to carry out the school program
Senator Gather said that he favors
the bill Of Senator Aubrey G. Weaver
OF Front Royal. which would make II
lawful for the State to carry the
budget and use the money for the
school program.
Following this announcement. the
committee referred the Gather bill to
a subcommittee, which was instructed
to change the proposed salary guar
antee OF s475 annually on the part o!
the State to q variable amount, de-
pendent upon the revenues available
DR.. Sidney B. Hall State superintend-
ent OF public instruction, told the
committee he wished to set the
precedent OF a guaranteed minimum
salary, regardless Of the amount.
