PLAN SEEN
House Committee Is Urged
BY Senator Hastings to
Simplify Measure

Predicting a "tax rebellion" if
the Administrations economic Sc.
curity bill is enacted in its pres.
ent form, Senator Hastings CR)
Of Delaware today urged the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee to simplify the measure.
Representative Hastings cited
reports of Administration. experts
that 40,000,000 persons would pay
direct taxes to the Federal Gov
ernment under the program. He
said:
"The people will drive out of
office those who impose such
taxes"
Offers New Plan
Asserting he is in sympathy
with old-age pensions and unem'
ployment insurance, Representa-
tive Hastings urged that the
Federal Government enact only
emergency legislation in the hope
that the States will take over the
system completely in a few years,
He partially Endorsed the pro.
posals made by Secretary Of the
Treasury Morgenthau yesterday
for elimination of Federal con
tributions to the compulsory con
tributory old-age pension plan and
for elimination of some workers
The whole plan, he insisted, is
unconstitutional, including Mr.,
Morgenthau's proposals.
Sees Discrimination
Under the Administration plan,
he said, a man of As who con-
tributed for 20 years to the con-
tributory old-age plan would get
$40 a month, including Federal
contributions, while the man who
began paying at 20 would only
get $50 a month after he is IS.
The young, he said, would resent
the discrimination.
Representative Patman CD Of
Texas proposed elimination of the
requirement that States match
old-age pension contributions of
SIS a month for a few years.
Representative Collins (R.) Of
California, told the committee
that $4,000 persons in his district
had signed petitions for the Town

said he took no stand on the
plan, but left legislation to the

Efforts were made to get the
gasoline truck out of the hangar
but the doors jammed and the
vehicle caught fire and was de-
Stroyed.
Plane Wings Ignite
Exploding gasoline shattered
the windows in the hangar and
thick clouds of smoke poured
out.
Flames jumped to the planes,
igniting the wing fabric, and
spread to the automobile parked
inside.
The field fire department rushed
into action and was pouring water
into the blazing building as the
Washington companies, speeding
over the ice and snow-covered
road, skidded up to the field.
Additional hose lines were laid
and thousands of gallons Of water
poured into the building.
On either side of the blazing
hangar were similar structures,
housing the air Squadrons sta.
toned at the field. and lines were
run to them in event the blaze
should spread.
Half an hour after the explo-
sion the blaze was under control,
