Rep. Delaney Sees Pacifists
Backing Big Navy Program

ing to realize that the best
insurance for the protection Of
our Government and it's people
lies in the fact that we will have
a 100 per cent efficient Navy,
backed up by the aviation
branch Of the service.
Backs Flying Force
It is hoped that when this
program is started, the unem-
ployment situation will be re-
lieved materially. AS chairman
of the subcommittee Of yards
and stations, I am hopeful that
a great deal more work will be
given to navy yards to provide
employment.
Investigation recently started
has proved that with a sufficient
flying force and more Of the light
er-than-aircraft of the type OF the
Macon would be a valuable addi-
ton to the Navy.
In addition to it's usefulness in
scouting, the lighter-than-ai -airshir
is also valuable for both offenSe
and defense, since a ship like the
Macon can carry six airplaneS and
machine guns can be mounted.
To those members of Congress
who have fought for an adequate
Navy against the opposition Of
pacifists and those who simply
would not see the necessity of pre-
paredness, the turn of events is
gratifying.

PAY ROW HALTS
TREE PLANTING

Planting and repairing of trees
in Dupont Circle will be delayed
until after settlement of a wage
scale dispute among tree surgeons,
it was learned today.
With bids for the work already
in the hands of National Capital
parks officials, it was announced
by Superintendent c. MarSGiall
Finnan that they will remain un-
opened until after the wage scale
has been set.
The tree surgeons, now receiv-
ing 80 cents an hour, are seeking
to have the figure raised and will
air their difficulties before the
National Labor Board of Review
next week.
More than 100 trees are to be
repaired under the program at a
cost of $4,000.

NEW PNA
PLAN To COST
Z BILLIONS
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
Secretary of the Interior 1ckes
has a second huge public works
program rivaling the initial effort
and will launch it as soon as funds
are available, he revealed today.
Approximately 2,400 projects,
many involving expenditure OF
81 ,000, 900 or more, and others for
at least half that amount, have
accumulated since the end of the
year. Together they call for ex-
penditure Of 81, 1866, ,687 $3.50.
Ickes' plans were spurred by the
crisis in the civil works progrwam,
which will close shortly, throwing
at least four million workers in
every field on relief once more un-
less new pay rolls are forthcoming.
On top Of this huge demand,
Emergency Relief Administrator
Hopkins revealed that the mini
mum operations Of his own relief
departments of Federal aid to
States for unemployment, and for
continuation of the civil works
until May /, call for close to 1000
million dollars.
He expects an allotment through
a direct Treasury appropriation Of
$50 million dollars. In addition, he
revealed that straight unemploy-
ment relief on the present basis
calls for 500 million dollars. This
will last only for an indeterminate
period.

REP. BACHARACH
STILL SEEKS
SALES TAX

Socalled nuisance taxes could
be eliminated by passage OF a
manufacturers sales tax, and
Representative Isaac Bacharach
(R.) of New Jersey, will support
such a tax Just as he did In
the early 1920's.
The veteran legislator said in
explanation today:
81 am still rs strong for the
sales tax N when I introduced
such q bill and tried to have
It written into our revenue
laws some 10 or IL years ago.
BACKS CROWTHER PLAN
Therefore I will vote for
the amendment to be offered
by Congressman CrOwther
Representative Frank Crow
ther (R.) Of New York; to
substitute . two per cent
manufacturers sales tax for
the various manufacturer ex-
else taxes in the present law"
Bacharach's stand is an i'm.
portant one because his 18 years
in Congress have won him a
large following and because he
is outranked on the minority
side Of the House Ways and
Means committee only by Repre-
sentative Allen T. Treadway CR)
Of Massachusetts,.
BACK CROWTHER PLAN
Continuing he said:
"ThOse excise taxes are
levied on such things as elec-
tricity, tires and tubes, toilet
preparations, furs, jewelrH
automobiles and parts, radios
and monographs, refrigeratOrS,
sporting goods, firearms, cam
eras' candy, chewing gum, and
soft drinks.
Enactment Of the proposed
sales tax would enable US to
get rid of these SO-called nuiS-
ance taxes forever and I hope
the committee will see the
wisdom of supporting DIR.
CrOwther's amendment"

E. c. BaItz, D. C. Banker,
Sales Tax Enthusiast

The name of a prominent Wash
ington banker was added today to
the list of advocates of the sales
tax and it's substitution for the
inequitable graduated income tax.
Edwin c. Baltz, executive sec
retary of the Perpetual Building
Association, unqualifiedly declared
that the income tax system has
failed in its purpose and that the
general sales is the best means to
raise funds for gigantic Govern
ment expenditures.
To soak the rich," he says, Is
unjust because it is not the rich
alone who derive the benefits Of
government protection.

Relief Administrator, today de-
Actibed to international News
Service plans to solve the nations
unemployment problem along per-
Enanent lines.
Unemployment will be a most
serious problem for long time to
come, according to his view, and
permanent as we'll as temporary
policies must be adopted to COM
bat it.
Sees Joint Responsibility
Unemployment Of the idle was
He6cribed by Hopkins as q joint
responsibility of Federal, State
and local governments and Of pr1-
rate industry. He said:
SThere are functions Of great
benefit that obviously can
never be fulfilled by private
initiative. One of these is to re-
store and build up the public
domain"
Then he outlined a 20-year pub
nc domain program of mammoth
proportions on which a start al
ready is being made.
End Rape Of Forests
The program would involve re-
turn Of large areas to the pic
tUrSsQue solitude that prevailed
when restless pioneers Of past
generations advanced westward
with rifle and ak. Said Hopkins:
"One way to begin is to map
put and place in effect great
RefOreStatiOn plans, the lumber

nefinite Government policy.
"NO more raping of the for
NStS would be allowed.

will have to put hundreds Of
thousands of citizens on small
tracts, offering the man OppOr-
tunity to keep cows and chick
ens and to earn wages in
nearby industrial plants or in
restoration.

new stand of timber. 1 can't
conceive of private capital in

A 25-million-dollar fund allotted
10 the Government-owned sur
plus relief corporation will be
used as a "nest-egg" for the Ad-
Yninistration's great land utiliza-
ton scheme.
Hopkins heads the corporation
rs president. with Secretary Of
Agriculture wallace as vice presi-
dent and Secretary of the Interior
Harold L. Ickes as treasurer.
Hopkins said:
'The rs millions will only
buy land. We will need that
much more to improve the
status of the farmers from
whom this sub-marginal acre
age is purchased. Obviously,
this is only a drop in the
bucket-Only start"
