RELIEF Still
FEDERAL LOAD
Little Progress Made In
Shifting Burden To
States

WASHINGTON. July 8. Up
Acknowledging that little progress
has been made In actual transfer
ring "unemployables" from federal
relief 10 care Of the states, relief
officials said Monday that about
4 100000 such persons still are on
the federal roles.
This number, which Is about one
fifth OF the persons depending in
whole or part on federal relief ac-
tivities for support. is roughly the
same as IL was last December.
At that time Harry Il. Hopkins,
now works progress administrator,
enunciated a policy that all per-
som physically or mentally inca
pable Of work must be returned to
the ARE Of the states by last Feb. /.
Later Hopkins modified his re-
quirement. Funds for unemploy-
ables would be loantt states and
cities unable to take over the re-
sponsibility, he said. Later he
abandoned the attempt for the
time, and officials said they expect
ed the administrations security
program 10 provide for most Of the
dependent children and aged.
The measure, however, still Is In a
congressional conference and 1t Is
expected that a year or more will
be required 70 place IL in operation.
Officials said Hopkins now plans
to supply most Of the food and
clothing required by the unemploy-
ables even after they are returned
to the care Of local governments.
There is little prospect Of their
ceasing 10 be a federal burden until
after the work relief program peak
Is reached around November /,
10 was indicated.
Then the twin moves - providing
Jobs for those able to work, and
transferring the others to local care
will carry out President Roosevelt's
desire to lend this business OF re-
Lief" officials said.

Morgenthau Believes
Levy Would Bring
$9OO,OOO,O0O t o
Treasury

WASHINGTON, July 8. P-Esti-
mates that wealth distribution taxes
could be levied to raise $11S,000.000
70 s9oi. SOC. 900 annually were sub
nitted TO congress Monday by Sec
Rotary Morgenthau.
He told the house ways and means
committee that the time has come
70 move In the direction Of providing
ssufficient income both TO meet cur
rent expenditures and to make sub
|stantial reductions In the debt"
COP Quick to Act
The treasury's first concern Is
with the adequacy Of the national
revenue" Norgenthau saio. There
are times of emergency when the
treasury must finance expenditures
in excess Of income by borrowings
which increase the public debt.
But the national welfare demands
that when such an emergency has
PISSED sufficient income be raised
both TO meet current expenditures
and TO make substantial reductions
IN the debt.
'The time has come to move In
this direction. It would, OF course,
be unwise to impose tax burdens
which would retard recovery. But u
would be equally unwise not TO can
on sources OF revenue which would
reduce our borrowings and later re-
duce the national debt without in
~terfering with recovery. and u Is my
belief that the additional taxes
which the president has now recon-
mended fall within this latter class.
Republicans Immediately snapped
IN the debt reduction idea. Repre-
sentative Jenkins R-Ohio), among
cthers. objected that the proposed
taxes would have no substantial ef-
feet on the debt.
what we're hopeful CT" remark
&c Representative Knutson (R-
Mimi. 'is a definite policy. We
want to get off this merry-go-rounc
and head in a defenite direction
Then turning to Morgenthau ne
asked:
b "Is your primary purpose TO re-
kdistribute wealth or raise additionai
revenue?"
The secretary replied that his sole
purpose was to present 70 the com
mittee estimates which he had beer
asked to prepare on new tax rates
submitted to him by the committee.
on these he said: "Your 10 sche-
dulles relating to inheritance and
Gift taxes would produce yields rang
ing from about seven millions tc
$721. 200. 900.
your six schedules relatfng 70
Increased bracket rates on large In
dividual incomes would produce rev.
enue Yields from about five millions
TO thirty-two and a half Millions.
"Ycur three schedules relating TO
a graduated corporation income tax
would produce revenue yields from
about 81 millions TO one hundred and
two millions.
"Your suggestion relating TO meth
DDS Of partially removing the pres
ent total tax exemption Of divi-
oends received by corporations would
produce revenue approximating 80
million dollars"
