NEW YORK. November 24.-The
Congressional Committee on un-
American Activities concluded today
its investigation into the alleged
Fascist "putsch" described by Gen.
Smedley D. Butler with q promise to
make public all the information that
is pertinent"
Representative John w Mccormack
OF Massachusetts,, chairman OF the
committee, said a detailed statement
would be issued tomorrow concern
ing several important inconsist-
encies" in the testimony of Gerald
P. MacGuire. the Wall Street bond
salesman named by Butler as the
man who approached him.
The committee, MacCormack dis
closed, has evidence to contradict
MacGuire's statement. through his
lawyer, that he was registered at the
Palmer House, Chicago. between Sep
tember 81 and October 8, l933-a
period during which he supposedly
offered Gen Butler $4,000 at a New
ark hotel.

CURE was registered at the Palmer
House between September 81 and
October g." he said, the statement
of the committee will indisputably
show that on two occasions he came
back to New York City between those
dates, and on another occasion he was
registered at the Mayfower Hotel in
Washington.
The information the committee has
is that the 29th Division Convention
was held September rs and 27 in
Newark"
Though he mentioned no dates pub
licly, Gen. Butler said it was during
this convention that MacGuire walked
into his hotel room in Newark and
started to toss thousand dollar bills
on the bed
In connection with the 29th Division
Convention" Mccormack said, Mac
CURE has admitted under oath that
he saw Gen. Butler there"

in repaying the 70 per cent loan is
prevented by the mandate of Congress
that the proceeds of 10 cents of the tax
rate on real estate and tangible prop
erty be set aside in special account
in the Treasury for reimbursement
Of the loan.
The petition declares that District
taxpayers are at present reasonably
and, in view Of their peculiar disa-
bilities. even heavily taxed. and that
no increase in the local tax burden
should be considered unless it is
clearly demonstrated that such addi-
tional taxation is absolutely necessary

Citizens Petition President for Increase in Lump Sum
Ind direct national taxes, the last

and direct national taxes, the last
named suggestion seems equitable. In
fairness In this connection 1t should
also be considered that the Nation has
heretofore not only denied national
representation to the national tax
paying District but has also until very
recently excluded the District In dis
tributing hundreds Of millions Of dol
lars in bounties and subsidies to the
States. It Is also to be remembered
that the national taxes paid by resi-
dents of the District In contributions
to the customs revenues OF the Nation
will still remain in the Treasury for
national uses. Bv this procedure the
Nation weuId contribute to the Ma
tisnal Capital municipal maintenance
and upbuilding NO dollar that had NOT
been paid In national taxes by the
people Of the District themselves.
1t could not reasonably be protested
that such repayment OF its own money
should not be made to the District,
since already in national bounties or
subsidies to the States (in which the
4l8tI tlx6 tlOt AlCICO|AOLC 0CCA1 PCl
mitted to participate) several States
have received even more from the Ma
tional Treasury In the shape Of such
bounties and subsidies than they have
paid into the Treasury In national
internal revenue taxes. II the Nation
can thus make subsidy payments to
even q few Of the States Of more
than these States pay in national
taxes, surely there could be no rea-
sonable objection to . return to the
District Of this part of its contri-
button Of national taxes, the Nation
retaining In the Treasury the con-
tributions Of District residents to
customs revenues
Political equity and financial equity

WALTER HAMPDEN BRIN s
THREE GREAT PLAYS TO
FORD'S THEATRE, BAL
TIMORE

Walter Hampden, presenting two
plays in which he has not appeared
in Baltimore in four years, Richie
lieu" and Hamlet, and third
Macbeth" in which he has not been
seen here in three times that long, is
scheduled for a half weeks engage
ment at Ford's Theatre, Baltimore,
beginning Thursday, November 18th.
Two of the four performances,
Thursday and Saturday nights, will
be devoted to "Richelieu", Friday
night will see the star in the inky
doublet and hose of his favorite role,
Hamlet, while at the Saturday matt
nee he will come forward in the
kits, tartans and horned helmet of
CORY Macbeth.
Practically alone today Walter
Hampden is keeping alive the glori-
GUS traditions of the English ro-
mantle and classic drama, and this
opportunity for older playgoers to
renew acquaintance with plays which
thrilled them in their youth, and for
the new generation to meet them for
the first time, should be welcome.
Restoring Macbeth" to his roper
terry was a happy thought on part
of the actor-manager, for this
mighty tragedy has been acted but
infrequently during recent years,
and it aroused great interest wher-
ever presented on his transcontinent-
al tour last season.
"Richelieu" is offered in the new
version of Bulwer Lytton's popular
melodrama made especially for Mr.
Hampden by Arthur Goodrich who
also wrote for him his great success
"Caponsacchi'. There is no devi
alton from the thrilling Bulwer
Lytton plot, but the dialogue is more
succinct and natural than it is in tn,
English authors original.
A company of thirty-five player
versed in the ways of poetic dram;
is supporting the star and handsome
productions designed by Claud
Bragdon have been provided for al
three plays. Prominent in the com
pany are Mabel Moore who will pla,
Lady Macbeth and the Queen Moth
err in Hamlet" and Eleanor Good
