Ethiopian war.
The exhibition is intended to prove
the Fascist nation stands behind the
declaration of its dictator Ethiopia
will not be relinquished-even at the
cost of European war.
The order for the display of steel
and men sent Italy's trained warriors
to polishing their equipment for the
big review. Nearly all Of the avail

His cabinet approved a project by
which each part becomes an admin

The report, which caused a panic

TAX JAM THREAT
TO ADJOURNMENT
Action by President Held
Necessary to End
Deadlock.
BY the Associated Press.

Predictions that President Roose-
welt would move soon to avert threat
ened jam over taxes and to speed
Congress homeward by Saturday night
were heard today among some admin
istration supporters on Capitol Hill.
AS the Seventy-fourth Congress
entered what leaders fervently hoped
would be its final week, the Senate
was torn by internal dissension oveT
taxes, and also found itself at odds
with the House on the issue.
Moreover. the s2,370000,0 900 relief
deficiency bill had yet to clear the
Senate, and both Houses had much
business of more minor nature to
transact, including some vital appro-
priation legislation.
But congressional leaders insisted it
would still be possible to adjourn by
Saturday night ii President Roosevelt
would call OF the New Deal fight for
stiff graduated taxes on undistributed
profits of corporations. accept the bill
which rebellious Senate Finance
Committee has written, and urge
House chiefs to do likewise.
Alternatives Weighed.
Otherwise. it was held, the session
might last we'll into the Summer. Cap
itol Hill friends of the Chief Execu-
tive believed he was weighing both
alternatives and some believed he
would choose to end the session quickly.
Weeks ago. they recalled, the Pres
ident indicated that while he wanted
s623, 900, 900 in permanent revenue,
the job of choosing ways and means
to get the money was up to Congress.
Treasury estimates indicate the Sen
| ate bill, like the House measure, would
raise about the sum wanted, though
falling far short of the S500,000, 900
in temporary revenue also sought by
the President.
While the Senate debated the re-
lief bill today and made arrangements
for night sessions if necessary, the
leaders moved to take up the tax bill
tomorrow. Senator King, Democrat,
Of Utah, acting chairman of the
Finance Committee, planned to sub
init today the committees majority
report on its tax plan, which is fea-
tured by a l512 to Is per cent levy
on net corporation income, a Z per
cent tax on profits undistributed to
stockholders, and increases of the in
dividual income surtaXes in the
brackets above $4,000.
Minority Report Prepared.
Senator Black, Democrat, Of Ala
bama prepared to submit minority
report calling for a measure more in
line with administration ideas. Among
other things, Black favored graduated
levies on undistributed corporation
earnings up to 80 per cent. The House

BY ]. A. OIEARY.


Conferees on the deadlocked Dis

after a 40-minute session this morn
ing without signing formal report Of
disagreement, indicating some new
basis of compromise on the main issue
of the Federal payment had been
proposed
Senator Thomas, Democrat, of Okla

said there was nothing to report at
this time. At the invitation of the
House group. Thomas departed from
the custom Of holding conferences on
the Senate side, by going to the
House Appropriations Committee room
for the meeting.
The other Senate conferees did not
attend, however, and it is probable
the next move will be for Senator
Thomas to consult his colleagues on
what developed at this mornings
meeting.
Asks Reporters to Leave.
Shortly before the conference ended,
Representative Blanton of Texas.
chairman of the House group and
leading advocate of reduction of the
Federal share toward District ex-
penses, emerged from the conference
room, to an outside reception room
where newspaper men were waiting,
and told the clerks he wanted the re-
porters to leave the outer Office.
Il want the newspaper men to re-
tire from this room" Blanton said.
When We have a meeting it's execu-
tive. We don't want eavesdropping.
When the conference adjourned a
short time later. the Texan hurried
toward the House chamber, telling
newspaper men who sought informa-
ton regarding the conference that he
did not have time.
Senator Thomas said there was
nothing to give out, except that
formal report of disagreement had
not been signed.
Reported Discussion.
It was later reported that there had
been discussion Of the possibility Of
compromising on the three contro-
versial questions in the bill. az fol-
lows: BY having the Senate agree
to leave out character education, as
provided by the House; by modifying
the House ban on outside work Of
District officials, to apply to those
receiving $4,000 or more year, in
stead of going down to the S2,400
class. and by fixing the Federal lump
sum somewhere between the House
figure of S2,700,000 and the Senate
figure of s5,7O0,000
The Senate conferees already had
indicated, in the letter Senator
Thomas wrote Friday, that they would
compromise substantially along House
lines on the first two questions
On the lump sum, however, they
have insisted repeatedly that they
would stand firmly by the s5,700,0
figure. which the President recon-
mended, although Senator Thomas
has offered to attach to that lump
sum figure a provision for appoint
ment of a commission to determine
before next January what The Fed
eral share should be thereafter.
Just before the conferences met
there appeared in today's Congress

Around and About
BY FLOYD L. EASTER

Well, few weeks ago, read in
a very popular publication that
commencement exercise was held
in the same stadium that had been
the location of many a football
game. Some authorities remark
ed that the crowd that attended
the commencement exercises was
about one-fiftieth as large as the
crowd that had witnessed the grid
iron hostilities. Personally, I
would prefer to watch the lousiest
of football games than attend a
commencement exercise. Now,
don't think I'm against education;
far from it, but most school-clos-
ing program are so drab and dull
that even instructors are bored.
That pep and vitality that is found
in any field of sports should GER
tainly be applied to all forms of
education. A possible result would
The Arizona gleam., 1936-07-31

be: A decided change in pupils;
they would put as much ambition
and energy into their studies and
academic work as they put into
sports; any phase of educational
work would be met with the
whole-hearted cooperation by the
most drab book-hater, crowds
would turn out to witness plays,
programs, lectures and cooperate
in every way possible. BUT if a
person must sit and listen to a
long series of dry talks, and jib-
bering, naturally he is going to
dread repition, and will avoid re-
turning if possible. Put that pep
and excitement into studies that
is found on the football field into
