Floor Space Plan
Basis For Taxing
'ConClnned trnm rage One,

writing two different sections, one to
apply to chain stores and the other
to chain gasoline filling stations. The
first plan it presented would have
taxed both chain stores and chain
filling stations under the same sec
ton.
"If it is fair and just to tax chain
stores owned by persons or corpora
tionS outside the State, it is also fair
and just to tax the chain stores own
ed and operated within the State. and
to tax them on the same basis" SEN
ator Bailey said in discussing the
plan. "Th4 members of the commit
tee are convinced that it would not
be fair to base the chain store tax
entirely on the number of stores. as
some suggest For we have found that
one chain owned and operated here
in the State, having about 20 stores,
earned more than twice the net re-
venue than did the more than $50
stores in a national grocery chain
doing business in, the State Yet if
the tax were based ( solely on<> the
number of stores, this national chain
would pay a tremendous tax and the
State chain a very small tax
) If the floor space basis is adopted
as the basis of the new chain tax
section, the tax will be more evenly
distributed, Senator Bailey believes,

HEAVY SELLING
CHECKS RISE
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Nov. 20 U.N.SO.
The stock market today was
forced to absorb one of the big
geSt waves of profit-taking since
the current advance got under
way eight months ago. The ticker
was four minutes behind at one
time.
The heavy selling brought an
immediate check to the rise after
the list went into new high
ground at the opening under the
leadership of the steels. Losses
ran to a point and more during
the height Of the selling, but the
bullish nature Of trade news was
a supporting influence.
Power output hit a new record
high for the week with a wide
gain over the previous week a year
ago. The mid-weekly Iron Age Re-
view told of a new rise in steel
operations and was generally opti-
mistic on the industry. The day

A Show Goes On
RY John w. THOMPSON

Last Night at the Murat Theater
Earl CAROLS Vanities were pre-
sented. But more than that
1t was much more than the mere
routine of acts, of songs, of dances.
1t was a display of the indomitable
spirit that is the lifeblood of the
show world; the loyalty of a trouper
to his colors. Mr.. Carroll, our
hand! Yours is a real show, back
stage as we'll as out front.
Monday night, following the first
of three scheduled presentations of
the Vanities at English Theater,
there was a fire back-stage. 1t de-
stroyed costumes, drops, settings
and personal belongings of the Van
tiles company. A great portion OF
the show went up in flames or down
beneath the necessary flood from
fire hose But one thing was sal
vaged. And that one thing was
present during the performance last
night at the Murat.
That one thing, best explained by
the trite phrase, "the show must &c
on" that red badge of courage that
is scared into the heart of every
Snowman and every showgirl, that
one thing put the show over last
night.
One could see it the faces of the
performers, one could sense it in
their songs, could feel it in the very
pulse beat of their dancing.
And so it did go on. All day yes
terday, seamstresses, wardrob e
workers, carpenters, painters, all
united toward the same end. And 10,
