PRESIDENT 7.
TO FIGHT
INITIATION
Declares New Taxes
Are Necessary to Pay
War Veterans
BY EARL GOODWIN

President Roosevelt will not
countenance use of uneXpended
relief money, PWA money or any
other part of the balance Of the
four billion dollar emergency
fund to pay the veterans bonus,
he let it become known today.
It was made clear Mr.. RooSe-
welt feels, that to pay the bonus
with any part of the relief funds
would subject someone to starva-
ton.
At the same time he declared a
tax bill will be necessary, not only
to finance the farm bill substitute
for AAA. but to provide cash re-
Quired Immediately for the bonus
payments Consequently, the Ad-
ministration faced by q restless
Congress. eager to return home,
will apply pressure for enactment
of tax legislation.
The Presidents emphasis on
taxes once more makes it plain
that he will put the entire force
of the Administration against any
attempts at initiation, printing
press money, lotteries, or the use
Of the enhanced value Of the
Treasury's gold store.
Study Veterans Status
The amount of taxes and just
how they will be raised are subjects
still very much in the study stage,
according to the President, who,
however, made it clear that he con-
SiderS the farm program taxes are
not new" taxes in the sense that
they are additional taxes. They
are, he contends, merely substitute
taxes in place of levieS which have
been knocked out by the Supreme
Court. Mr.. Roosevelt apparently
wants to give congressman an eX-
cuse for voting for substitute tax
program to take care of the farm
legislation, if it is enacted at this
session.
Administration officials also are
studying the status of veterans
now on relief after they receive
their bonuses. Whether the Fed
eral Government will take them
off relief because of bonus pay
ments is a matter not yet decided.
Already officials of one or two
States have decided to refuse
State aid to veterans on receipt
Of bonus payments.

CAREER SYSTEM
IN GOVERNMENT
SERVICES URGED
Women Voters Hear Plea
for Trained Personnel in
Public Offices.

With government constantly loom
ing larger as a factor in economic
welfare, there is an equally growing
need for development of career
system for government workers,
in the opinion of DR.. Marshall E
Dimock, Chicago University profess
sor.
DR.. Dimock spoke last night at a
meeting of the indianapolis League
of Women Voters at Kirshbaum
Community Center.
DR.. Dimock, a public administra-
ton expert, spoke on Trained
Personnel in Public Service" He
was preceded in speaking by Clar-
ence A. Jackson, state gross income
tax division head, and John Ruck-
elshaus, attorney, representing, re-
spectively, the Democratic and Re-
publican views of the patronage
problem.
The meeting was part of the ma
tlonal campaign waged by the
League of Women Voters for a
trained public service personnel.
Efficiency Demanded
THE American attitude toward
government is changing" DR.. Dim
ock said, land no longer is being
considered necessary evil. In
stead, we are recognizing that pub
lie service is indispensable AS a
result, we have right to demand
and are demanding the same stand
ard OF efficiency in government as
Americans always have insisted for
the professions and all important
Walks OF life.
With the growth of corporate
business and Capitalization of popu-
lation in large cities, the govern
menu Is assuming more RESPONSE
bllity for our economic welfare be-
cause of its increased regulation of
business.
Even politicians are swinging
more to the realistic view that the
best service is the best politics.
believe there is every reason to as
sumo that political parties not only
can live, but can be improved by
curbing the patronage evil"
Outlines Needs
DR.. Dimock suggested, to achieve
q career system, a better Informed
public and increased activity among
civic groups, a modern civil service
law, establishment of central per-
sonnet agency, obtaining effective
leadership through the elective pro-
cess, and provision for adequate
salaries.
Mr.. Ruckelshaus, referring to the
experience of other nations, said it
must be agreed that it would be
unwise to adopt a system in the
United States which would mean
oblivion for political parties.
Substituting for Senator Walter
Chambers, Newcastle, who is i'll,
Mr.. Jackson said government must
be in position to compete with big
business in getting the best talent
from colleges and universities.
Miss Evelyn Chambers, outlining
the leagues Civil Service law OBJ
jective, urged representatives of all
organizations at the meeting to can
vass candidates of both major po-
litical parties before the primary
and obtain promises to support
merit system legislation.
