DRIVERS SEEKING
TO GET LICENSES
Gross Ignorance of Law
Over State Reported by
Safety Division
DAILY dispatch UmreN0.
In The SIR Waiter II0trI,
HY u a. RASk V.VPNII.E.


Raleigh, Aug 21.-Many motorists
whose driving permits have been re-
Noked for one year for drunken driv-
ing or other revokable offenses, es-
pecially if given lesser or suspended
sentences by the court, are still try
ing to get their licenses reinstated,
Director Arthur Fulk, of the highway
safety division of the Department of
Revenue. said today. But all these eff
forts are meeting with failure, since
the law is mandatory in directing the
revocation of the licenses of all driv-
ers convicted of drunken driving or
some ten other offenses, regardless of
the sentences imposed by the court
"A man was just in here this morn
ing with half dozen letters from
various people and a petition signed
by many others, in an effort to get
his drivers license reinstated," Fulk
said. THE Judge before whom he was
tried and convicted for drunken driv-
ing had stipulated in his sentence that
this man should not drive a car for
six months. But We, of course, revoked
his license for one year, since the law
requires us to do this regardless of
the sentence imposed by the court.
This man still cannot understand
why the State has revoked his license
for a year when the judge revoked it
for only six months( or why the vari-
Gus letters and petitions he had were
of no value. But the only thing we
could do was to let him read the law
and the opinion of the attorney gen
eral to the effect that the law is man.
datory and that we have nothing else
to do than to obey it,
One of the reasons why so many of
those whose licenses are revoked fail
to understand the law is that many
of the judges either do not under
stand it or make no effort to make
those convicted understand it, it was
pointed out. For some judges still con-
tinue to give light sentences to drunk
en- drivers and to revoke their license
for only 80 or 60 days, or fail to men,
ton any revocations at ALL when if
they had read the law they would
know that the state will revoke their
licenses for one year.

feel that Il will handicap the pro-
gress of American industry. 1t may
freeze" competition at today's level
and it will tend to keep the small cor
poratiOn small.
While the publicly-announced pur-
pose Of the act is to raise revenues,
it is really part of the New Deal pro-
gram to take the "bigness out of bus
mess" The law forces corporations to
pay out their profits in dividends or
be penalZed if they withhold their net
income for other purposes. For in
stance, a company which earns ST.
100000 and pays out $750O00 in di-
vidends is liable to a tax of $42,50C
on the $250,000 which is put into sur
plus. If one-half its profits are with
held, the tax would be $4,000. These
penalties are in addition to the re-
gular Federal income tax of about Is
per cent. The schedules of the act dis
courage corporations from attempt
ing to build up SURPRISES in good
times to carry them through a red
ink period. This tendency may prove
very dangerous during the next de-
preston.
Bigger Dividends Coming
Existing SURPRISES do not fall un-
der the act. Strong companies such
as General Electric and General
Motors, having huge SURPRISES, can
continue to set up their immense de-
probation and other charges. These
reserve accounts are tax-exempt The
new tax law simply says that after
these various reserves are set aside
corporations must declare all their re-
naming earnings in dividends or he
subject to graduated surtax on the
portion retained. The latter starts al
seven per cent for holding back 1C
per cent or less of earnings and runs
up to 81 per cent if more than so per
cent of net income is retained. This
Is NO hardship on large companies
They should distribute most of their
earnings. In England, the stockhold.
ers-not the directors or management
determine what proportion of pro.
fits shall be paid out in dividends.
The most unfortunate feature of the
tax is that from now on, 1t will not
be practical for any corporation tc
build up surplus or to expand out
OF its earnings. Thus, this time-honr
ed American method of developins
a business is out-model The big wei

WALSH DENIES
CHURCH BACKS
EITHER PARTY

The Catholic Church has not
taken definite political stand for
either the Republican or the Demo
cratic party in this election, the
Rev. DR.. Edmund A. Walsh, S. j.,
vice president of Georgetown Uni.
Vers1ty, declared in an address be
fore the District of Columbia Med
tcal Society last night.
DR.. Walsh warned that because
two Catholic priests in the United
States are campaigning vigorously
in a party sense, the church has
taken no stand.
DR.. Walsh continued:
1.-TWO swallows do not make a
spring, and two clerical voices do
not represent the 31,1O8 Cath
OltO priests in the United States
among whom you will doubtless
find as much diversity of opinion
in matters economic as exists in
similar number of educated
minds in allied professional
circles"
DR.. Walsh continued:
"AIl their claims in support or
reputation Of any candidate
should be weighed on the intrin-
sic merit of their arguments and
should not be accepted as church
doctrine unless they lie within
the field of faith and morals"
Against the Communist party,
however, the Catholic Church has
taken definite and uncompromis-
ing attitude. DR.. Walsh said. He
added a warning that those who
feel the menace of communism is
being exaggerated simply lacked
information.
On May II Of this year, he
asserted, Pope Plus XII solemnly
charged the Catholic press of the
world to expose this first, great
est and most general peril of our
times"
Unlike political parties in the
traditional sense, DR.. Walsh said.
the Supreme Pontiff further
pointed out:
Communism takes possession
Of everything, attacks the liberty
and sanctity of the family,
diSturbS order and security in
the state, and is the foe of all
supernatural religion"
DR.. Walsh's address was the in
auguration of series of scientific
meetings sponsored by the Medical
Society this year. Approximately
400 physicians and their wives at
tended. DR.. William Mercer Sprigg,
president, presided.

z|0N|STS TOLD
OF RUSSIA

Soviet Russia was described
last night by Rabbi Isadore Bres-
lau, president of the District Zion
list organization, as one Of the few
places in Europe where the Jews
have an equal footing politically
with those of other creeds under
the law.
He said, however, that Russia
does not tolerate Zionist move
ment and, though synagogues are
open, Jewish cultural life is vir-
tually extinct. Yiddish is recog-
nized by the Soviet government,
he said, and there are many schools
where it is taught.
The declaration was made in a
discussion of political and economic
conditions among the Jews at the
Jewish Community Center. Rabbi
Breslau upbraided European coun-
tries, particularly Poland, for Jew
iSh prosecutions.
Other speakers included I. S.
Turnover, vice president of the COM
munity center; Mrs. William Bra
love. correspondent of a Jewish
newspaper syndicate; Mrs. S. A.
Wiseman. vice president Of the
HadasSah, women's Zionist organi-
cation.

MISS 0'RE|LLY
KEEPSU. 5. POST

Miss Mary M. O'Reilly, soft
spoken veteran Assistant Director
of the Mint, who has worked under
seven Presidents, sat primly before
her flower-laden desk in the Treas
ury Department and asked every
body to forget about her.
The slim, white-haired official
was celebrating a birthday gift
from President Roosevelt, an
Executive order extending her
term of office another year, but
she was hoping that nobody would
say anything about it, that she
could stay quietly in the back
ground.
Recognized the world over as a
coin and currency expert, she
nevertheless referred modeStIy to
her position, and said that no
credit was due her, that the Di.
rector of the Mint, Nellie Tayloe
Ross, is a capable and intelligent
woman, and that the department
workers do most of the work.
She sat at her desk in her usual
straight posture and, leafing
through the piles of neatly ar,
ranged papers, said that she was
grateful-to the President for ap.
proving her extension and to Mrs.
Ross and Secretary of the Treas
ury Henry l.. Morgenthau for
urging it.
Miss O'Reilly first began her
Government service in 1902 and
has been assistant mint director
for 81 years.
