BILL DOLLAR GIVES FAREWELL
MESSAGE TO Ell CENTRIC PEOPLE

his tribe that are possessed here
to work at home is the most prac-
teal and fruitful way of manifest
ing loyalty to the home city. Pa
triotism consists of something more
than waving the flag. Civil loyal
ty consists of something more than
verbal boosting of the city. The
loyalty that counts for most is the
loyalty that is expressed with the
use of ones substance in behalf of
the common good So starting
relatives of Bill Dollar TO work in
this city will mean more TO the
community than all the verbal or
written eloquence of the city all
combined ever amounted to.
"Now my message to the people
Of Ell Centro comes to a close. -
said Chip Dollar, "but 1t will
not be lost if the people of this
fine community will put into prac-
tice the Golden Rule. The whole
community has fine water and fine
people and that is wonderful
start for a good future.

HEAVY DEMAND
REPORTED FOR
STUDEB AKERS

Tangible signs of the return of
prosperity to the Imperial Valley
were seen today when it was learn
ed that more 1884 Studebaker au-
tomobiles have been sold in the
Imperial Valley by the Rogers and
Tison Agency than in any previous
year.
Sales have amounted to over
100000 or 104 Studebakers. it was
said, indicative of a sweeping up
turn in the automobile sales bus
ineSs in the valley.
Including the most recent ship
ment of new automobiles arriving
within the last 10 days, total of
l04 Studebaker cars have been
brought here direct from the factory
in Indiana for the convenience of
valley patrons.
Their speedy sale to customers
necessitating further trips to Indi-
ana was cited by Ira Rogers of the
valley agency as encouraging sign
OF general business recovery.

STOCK "C|FT" TAX
PA|DBYL|NDBERCH
Flyer Resents Implication He
Dodged Levy by Tech

BY REX COLLIER,

(Copyrieht. 1884. by The Washinston StarD
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, who was
named before the Senate Airmail In
vestigating Committee as a recipient of
a $3.50 900 stock gift" from the Trans
continental Air Transport Corporation,
accepted the contribution as compen-
sation for services rendered and paid
income taxes on it, 1t was learned yes
terday.
The noted flyer is understood to have
been nettled considerably by testimony
tending to leave the impression that
he may have used a technicality to
evade income tax laws in the transac-
ton. This impression apparently arose
from the statement Of a witness that
complicated system used in the stock
transfer was for income tax purposes -
Senator Black. chairman of the COM
mittee which recently heard sensational
charges of irregularity in awarding
Of marine and airmail contracts under
former Postmaster General Walter F
Brown. said last night he knew nothing
about Col. Lindbergh's income tax af-
fairs and diSclaimed responsibility for
statements made by any of the wit
neSSeS.
Lindbergh Replies.
He said. however he had received
from Col. Lindbergh replies to a formal
QUESTIONABLE sent to him by the COM
mittee. He declined to make the an
swers public, explaining that Lind
bergh's QUESTIONABLE was "one in about
400" Nor would he say whether the
committee planned to summon Col.
Lindbergh. to give him an opportunity
to explain publicly references to him
made in previous testimony.
There isn't any doubt that the
stock was gift, in my opinion" he
added
In 1928. when the stock transfer
was made, the income tax law exempted
certain gifts" from taxation, and by
Listing the stock as a gratuity. Col
Lindbergh could have avoided inclusion
OF the item among his taxable assets.
This provision Of the law-later re-
vised-was recalled when D. M Sheaf-
fer. chairman of the Executive Com
mittee of the T. A. T. Corporation,
attempted to explain the procedure
used by the corporation in turning
25 900 shares of its stock over to Lind
bergh in May of 1928.

House Will Blame
Senate if Present
Session Is Delayed
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Determined to carry out President
Roosevelt's plans for early adjourn
ment, House Democratic leaders have
decided upon speedy course to force
the Senate into a position where it
might be held responsible for delaying
the administrations program If it
fingers too long.
President Roosevelt has informed
Speaker Rainey and Representative
Byrns of Tennessee, the Democratic
leader, that he believes the country
wants the session to terminate as
quickly as possible after necessary leg
islation has been enacted.
Party leaders have said they under
stand the President believes that as
quickly as business and industry know
what legislation is to be on the books
they can go on from there. They
agreed that as long as Congress was in
session with various proposals before
it. business men were hesitant to
undertake enterprises which might af-
feet their plans.
Major Bills Enacted.
That the House Democratic leaders
are carrying out their plans is re-
flected in the eight major bills enacted
in l9 legislative days since the begin
ming of the session. Their plan is to
send as rapidly as possible all admin
istration and appropriation bills to the
Senate.
Besides desiring to show their branch
is more Fundamentally behind the
President than the Senate. party lead
ers as we'll as the rank and file want to
retaliate somewhat. In the special ses-
sion. as we'll as in this one, the Senate
forced the President to compromise on
issues which resounded to the credit of
individual Senators.
House members, who supported econ
omy measures in the special and pres
ent sessions. feel this left them in an
embarrassing light before their con-
stituents.
BY showing all the administration
proposals to the Senate's doorstep, the
Democratic House plans to focus the
blame for any delay upon the Senate.
Speaker Rainey said yesterday 1.-The
House is making a record for speed and
will be able to adjourn by April l. but
I double whether the Senate will finish
before May l."
when we get through with the nee
eSSary legislation We are going to take
three-day recesses and let the country
know We have done our job" the Illi-
nois Democrat said. I'VE are going to
keep up our present rate of speed de-
spite the fact that we have allowed all
the debate requested on each BILL
Byrns pointed out that four of the
nine regular annual supply bills, the
liquor tax r. F. c. extension. farm
mortgage bond guarantee and gold
dollar devaluation measures already
have been passed by the House.
The Senate, however, he noted, had
passed but three of these-liquor tax,
farm mortgage and r. F. c. extension
High administration officials made
known that Mr.. Roosevelt would con-
tinue to send his legislative proposals
to Congress separately 1t was disclosed
that before the session began the Presi-
dent conferred with Vice President
Garner and decided that he could ac-
comphsh better results In the enact
ment Of his program by sending them
up individually instead of dumping
them on Congress all at once.

Five Per Cent Restoration
Immediately and 10 Per

Restoration Of part Of the Is per cent
Government pay cut Immediately. and
more on July /. was seen last night as
the course most likely to be recommend
ed by the Senate Subcommittee in
charge of the dependent Offices bill,
which is expected to take action on the
measure early this week.
Predictions as to what the Senate
finally will do on the salary question
vary in different quarters. but the pro-
posal which seems to stand the best
chance of enactment Is: That per cent
of the present cut be restored as Of
January for the remainder of this
July l. This would leave pay cut Of
5 per cent in effect after July l.
There are considerable number OF
Senators who favor elimination Of the
entire Is per cent cut at the end of the
present fiscal year, and some believe
the bill may be reported from the sub
committee with such recommendation.
Leaders Are Silent.
Administration leaders in the Senate
have made no statement yet as to what
program they will seek to have followed
on the pay question. They apparently
are awaiting action by the subcommitte
and by the entire Appropriations Com
mittee.
