WASHINGTON CURRENT
 COMMENT

 tage is contemplated. The AAA and the IVA mean more to Representa- tiVes than mere letters in the alpha bet. The soft coal and the alcohol industries seem to be in need of legislation. Finally, but not of least importance to the greatest number, there is the matter of keeping alive the So-called nuisance taxes on a long list of commodities, ranging from auto trucks to matches. Speak ing of matches, a match is a weak article that time out of mind has been considered robust enough to carry tax. The straw broke the camels back, but the fragile match
 is strong enough to support al most any taxation camel that pass es by There appears to be no so- ciety for the prevention of cruel ty to matches, and when the House cuts loose on a taxing program, what can hope to escape? Turning from jest to earnest, Congress has put in several busy months, and if it's members can handle promptly the heavy grist that remains to be ground, and get back to the business of mending fences shortly after congress adjourns, no one will be- grudge them a change of occupation

PUBLIC WORKS SUCCESS.

Public works programs such now being carried out not confined to this country alone In Australia such apan has been adopted the to recty that country economic balance and stem unemployment and has been found to be of the greatest contributions to recovery
 D. Ford Williams, old time resident of Juneau in the early wireless days and resident of Melbourne, who stopped off here while his ship in port brings word of the tang of public works programs in that country.
 We have balanced budgets, he said in explaining how Australia had batted the depression which swept the world and regaining normal conditions He went say how large part the public works program had played in bringing along recovery in that started the wheels of private industry turning and drained relief rolls to a mini irnum.
 While the Australian plan of raising funds for public works is somewhat different from in that each gainu employed person is assessed certain percentage of his n the principle back the program exactly the same and President Roosevelt has time and time again pointed private industry will cooperate the public works gram will pave the way Too many people look upon pub lie works merely for creating jobs when in fact that only the beginning Pushed along effectively the expenditure of public funds for various needed improve bound give impetus to the machinery of private undertakings The with full cooperation of indus y Australia has already discovered is balanced budgets and economic recovery.-Juneau Empire

PROTEST IOWA
TAXATION ON
CHAIN STORES

DES MONIES, Iowa, April 30
CUD - Legislative procedure was
halted today when 5000 oil station
employees from all parts of the
state marched on the general as
sembly to protest a new chain store
tax law.
Carrying banners and placards
which said they would lose their
jobs if the new law becomes effec-
tive, the filling station men be-
sieged the chambers of both houses.
The march was reported organ
lied by oil companies in protest
against the chain store law effec-
tive next week.
The bill assesses all chain stores
at the rate of SIS for each unit up
to 10 and on a graduated scale up
to $155 per store over so; plus a
graduated tax ON gross receipts
ranging from $25 on the first $50,-
900 business to a flat 10 per cent on
all over $l,000,000 a year.

close every station they own if the
law becomes effective and enter
into leases with private station
owners to get outlets for their
products.

Discuss Plans
For Workers In
CantaIoupe Deal
Continued from Page u

out to the meeting.
The question of strike troubles
during the melon harvest was rails
ed. 1t was freely admitted by grow
ers present that such disturbances
are looked for as a result of the
disturbances which prevailed here
during the lettuce harvest season
earlier this year.
This brought up the matter of
what would happen to strikers and
non-strikers during that time par
ticularly in regard to the matter of
feeding and housing the workers.
When asked whether the SERA
would attend to that and feed the
workers, Sterrett stated that he
was not in a position at present to
outline the probable policy of the
SERA in the event of a strike or
whether striking workers would be
placed on the relief rolls.
Supervisor Ike Schlatter, CaleX-
leo, struck home at the shippers
in the matter of rehiring striking
workers and letting out those local
men who had carried on the work
during a strike when the trouble
was finally settled He let it be
known most clearly that should the
shippers adopt such a program, he,
for one would withdraw his sup
port from any move for police pro-
lection during a strike. Figures
were produced which show that
over $4,000 have been spent by the
county in curbing strike activities
here since 1882. If local workers are
not protected in their work, Schlat-
ter stated clearly and emphatically,
and preference is given to outsid-
ers, then the persons responsible
for such conditions must shoulder
the burden.
Livingston pointed out that only
qualified workers would be sent out
by his office to the harvest fields
and that the employer would have
full control in firing and hiring his
men. It is hoped, however that
preference would be given to local
residents who are qualified to do
The work properly.
Drouillard resigned his SERA post
following last night S meeting and
was succeeded this morning by
Kenneth Hickcox, El Centro, as su-
perviSing engineer for the county
division. w, j. Sterrett, county di-
rector stated this morning that no
statements on SERA policies are to
be made except as these are con-
tained in bulletins received period
ically from state headquarters il
San Francisco He added the SERA
will furnish men for work in thf
harvest fields whenever such are
necessary.

THIRD VICTIM
Of HOLLYWOOD
SHOOTING DIES

HOLLYWOOD, April 30 WP) -
Three deaths we're charged against
the film colony's strange murder
mystery today as investigators
sought to link "other crimes" with
the battling case.
Henry E. Bolte, 80, law professor,
died in a hospital, second victim
of William NJ. Howard, former ma
val reserve ensign, who shot and
killed Paul Wharton, dress design
er, pumped two bullets into Bolte's
body and then committed suicide.
Bolte's death left Investigators
without a witness upon whom they
could depend to clear up many
mysterious circumstances that have
been uncovered in connection with
the tragedy.
Investigators awaited the results
of an inquest, called for tomorrow
morning, in the hope that witnesses
summoned to the inquiry may pro-
vide additional evidence which
could be used as a foundation for
continuing the inevtisgation.

Sea.
No trespassing has been permit
ted near List, at the northernmost
end of the island, since 1882 be-
cause a marine airport was estab-
lished there. In the summer Of 1888
more territory was closed to visi-
tors on the ground bird sanctu-

NdUlptS VI IIle lSldllu, IOWSNei,

There is an airport, listed as
commercial, at Westerland at the
midway point of the island facing
the North Sea and Great Britain
Sylt is the chief island of the
North Frisian group. 1t is 25 miles
long. 1t lies parallel to the Ger
man and Southern Danish coasts
A railroad runs the length of the
island.
Panied surprise was expressed by
officials at the British announce
ment Of submarine building. 1t hao
been agreed, they said, that moth

Drummer Talks
To Lions Club

In an informal CaIk before the
Lions club today, John Drummer,
proprietor of the California hotel
and Las Palmas auto court, dis
cuSsed various means of making Ell
Centro more attractive to the tour
ist trade.
He called attention to the truck
nuisance in this city, asserting that
much of the effort and money
spent to get tourists here is nulli-
fled by their dissatisfaction when
heavy trucks operating at all hours
of the night and early morning
prevent them from sleeping. He
suggested that the example of
Palm Springs and other communi-
ties in keeping trucks from hotel
areas, might be followed here with
advantage TO all.
Pointing out that trees, shrub
cry, plants and flowers a d d
much to city's attractiveness,
thereby inviting the attention of
tourists, he advocated an intensive
planting campaign by the city and
local organizations in an effort to
improve the city S appearance.

anti-religious tendencies such as
exist in Europe under the various
relationships.
