quarters here today, for instance, that
Graham is going to have something
to say and to advocate concerning the
sales tax which will put both Dr. Nc
Donald, the candidate who is promis-
ing to remove the sales tax if he is
nominated and elected governor, and
Mr.. HOey, regarded as more or less
committed to the retention of the
sales tax, in something of tight spot
Mr. Hoey has said that he thinks the
exemptions of basic foods from the
sales tax should be restored if and
when that can be done without great
ly reducing the States revenue from
the sales taX-and, of course. not be-
fore the 1887 General Assembly meets.
Even Dr. Mcdonald has not advocat-
ed repeating the sales tax before 1887
and not to take effect before July 1,

pires.
why Waltz" He Asks.
But, according to- the talk heard
here today, Graham may take as his
campaign slogan why wait until 1887
to do what can and should he done in
1882" For in addition to advocating
special session of the General AS
sembly Immediately to enact tobacco
crop control legislation social security
laws, additional liquor control laws
which would permit counties which
want county liquor stores to have
them now without waiting until 1887,
there are limitations that Graham
may also urge the immediate restora-
tim of fh0 sCo1nc tov
basic foods to become effective July
1, 1886, instead of making it neces-
sary to wait until July /, 1887. It is
maintained that this would save the
buying public, especially those least
able to pay taxes, at least So, 100000 IN
sales taxes during the fiscal year from
July 1, 1896, to July 1, 1887 If Ora
ham does this, as current reports here
today say he will, he will have anti
cipated both Mcdonald and Hoey by
an entire year, it is pointed out
To Pull Out ALI Stops.
There is no doubt in most circles
here that Graham is going to pull out
all the stops on his oratorical pipe
organ in advocating a special session
of the General Assembly and that he
will undoubtedly have some rather
pointed criticism to make concerning
Governor J. G. B. Ehringhaus and his
consistent and persistent unwilling
ness to call a special session either
for tobacco crop control legislation,
social security, liquor control or what
have you. Graham has become quite
insistent for the past two weeks or so
in advocating a special session for
these purposes, although he has said
nothing about the sales tax exemp-
)tions. But if he now adds the restora-
ton of the sales tax exemptions as
another reason for special session
he is expected to win even more sup
port from the public in his demand
for such a session. For it is agreed
that the sales tax would be much less
unpopular both with the public and
merchants if the basic foods were ex-
enpt from the tax, as they were prior

GERMANY NOW THREATENS
TO WITHDRAW HER OFFER

Berlin, March 12-(AP)-The Ger
man government declared today that
if any attempt should be made to de-
mand of Germany that she renounce
any of her sovereign rights, Reicn-
fuehrer Hitler's peace offers must be
considered withdrawn.
In a public statement the govern
ment said:
Should our conception that the on
ly pacification Of Europe is built up
upon the voluntary decisions and ac-
tons of equal European states and
peoples, not signed acceptance by
other governments, the German gov
eminent will, of course, withdraw it's
proposals, and, resting upon the de-
pendability and the historic will in
appreciation of sacrifices of the Ger
man people, from now on rather
choose honorable isolation than to live
as a nation Disseminated against in
the community Of others"

NAV Stiffen Ehrniighaus.

This demand, If made, may only
serve to increase the opposition of
Governor Ehringhaus to a special ses-
sion, however, since it is generally
contended that the basic reason for
his refusal to call the legislature is
the fear that it might decide to tam
per with the sales tax and either put
the exemptions back in the law or
repeal it entirely. Most observers
maintain, however, that there is vir-
tualiy no possibility of repeating the
sales tax at this time and that those
clamoring fol- its repeal would be sat
isfied if the exenptionss hould be re-
stored.
Graham's proposal to seek the en-
actment of a Statewide law which
would permit any county which wants
to open and operate legal liquor
stores to hold an election on the cues
ton and open these stores if the peo-
pie so vote, is likewise expected TO
prove popular with the vets and mod
crate drys.
