The income tax troubles Of Tom M
Girdler, president and board chairman
Of Republic Steel Corp. were dragged
today into Andrew w. Melons tax
hearing.
Girdler was asked by Fred Shearer,
Government counsel, about his pur-
chase Of 5000 shares of the common
stock Of Jones & Laughlin Steel Co.
when he became its president In 1928.
The questioning developed that the
industrialist paid 500 a share for
this stock out Of treasury issue, al
though It's book value was $160 q
share.
What was the fair market value
of this stock?" asked Shearer.
"A hundred dollars a share"
snapped Girdler, leaning back in the
witness chair with o thumb hooked
under his vest.
Shearer then showed him an affi-
market value" and later said the mar
ket value was mot In excess of 500
a share"
'I don't know anything about this
legal phraseology," said Girdler, "but
sometime after ! bought this stock
the Government said ! owed them
$4,000 because the stock was worth
5000 share. ! had to come down to
Washington q couple Of times, but the
case was dismissed and all I had to
pay was railroad fares and attorneys
fees-and they charged too much"

LONDON, May 17.-Great Britain,
France and Italy will hold private
conversations at Geneva next week, 1t
was stated authoritatively today, in an
effort to find some way to settle the
Italo- Ethiopian quarrel
Plans for these talks were revealed
after Sir John Simon, foreign secre-
tary, and other British officials con-
ferred with Sir Eric Drurmmond, the
British Ambassador to Rome, whom
the foreign ofice hurriedly sum-
moned home after Premier Mussolini's

Sir Eric, 1t was understood. reported

ROOSEVELT PARTY
ATTENDED BY 900
President and Wife Greet
Veterans and Others
Despite DrizzIe.

Bareheaded and without raincoats,
President and Mrs. Roosevelt stood
beneath an elm tree in the rear
grounds Of the White House during
a light rain yesterday afternoon while
they received nearly 800 guests at
the garden party given annually for
veterans Of the Nations wars. most
of whom are patients at nearby Gov
ernment hospitals.
Despite the cold drizzle the fete
was colorful and enjoyable affair.
Secretary Of State Hull paused long
enough, as he shook hands with the
President in the receiving line, to ask
him If he did not need a hat. Mr.
Roosevelt laughingly replied:
Heavens, no. was born without
one"
Some Came In Ambulances.
The veterans arrived at the White
House In ambulances, private cars
and buses.
The first Of the parties was held
by Mrs. Woodrow Wilson in 1918 and
it has been an annual affair since.
Mrs. Wilson was one Of the first to
shake hands with the President and
Mrs. Roosevelt in the receiving line
yesterday.
Among the other notables present
were Gen. John j. Pershing. nattily
attired in dark suit; the Secretary
OF the Treasury and Mrs. Morgen-
thau; the Secretary of War and Mrs.
Dern; the Secretary of Commerce and
Mrs. Roper; Mrs. Claude Swanson,
Mrs. Harold Ickes and Brig. Gen.
Frank T. Hines, administrator of
veterans affairs, and Mrs Hines.
The veterans themselves did not
comprise a quarter of the persons re-
cetved. A few of them were pushed
along the receiving line in wheel
chairs, and there were two blind cases.
A number Of the veterans had an arm
in splint, and others walked with a
cane. The President and Mrs. Roose-
velt had CHEEKY greeting for each as
he passed in the line.
Few From Civil War.
They were less than q dozen grizZled
veterans of the Civil War on hand,
and only o dozen or so wore the uni
form of the Spanish-American War.
When the last in line had been re-
ceived, the Marine Band, attired in its
gay-colored uniform, took a recess
while the Ithaca College Choir sang
several songs. There's An Old Spin
ming Wheel In the Corner" was sung
at the request of the President.
The President was compelled to
leave shortly afterward to keep an i'm
portant engagement in his office, but
Mrs. Roosevelt remained and busted
herself about the grounds. seeing to
the comfort and enjoyment Of the
guests. Refreshments were served
from gay colored tents, and young
women Of the Veterans Bureau, the
Red Cross and nurses from the hos
pitals assisted in waiting upon the
disabled guests.
