He said, too, that it was essential
TO eliminate a tax on capital gains in
the case Of nonresident aliens and
foreign corporations because it "can
never be made to produce any substan-
tlal revenue from abroad"
Efforts to collect this tax, Been

The committee is considering a plan
Tor producing approximately s25, ,000,-

These stockholders, the witness said.

turns and should be subjected only to

foreigners will liquidate their American
holdings.
Hope to End Hearings.
Committee members spoke hopefully
today of concluding hearings this

Doughton, "how we can be expected

LOWDEN SELECTED1
T0MAKE KEYNOTE
Tentatively Chosen by G. o.
p. and Edge May Be Per-
manent Chairman.

BY the Associated Press.
Former Gov. Frank o. Lowden Of
Illinois was selected tentatively today
as keynoter for the Republican Ma
tional Convention at Cleveland.
Republican leaders were agreed on I
the selection, but had not obtained
Lowden's consent. He was keynoter al
last years Grass Roots Conference,
however, and was expected to accept
the new invitation.
To balance of Lowden, Midwest
erner, Republican leaders were dis-s
cussing selection of an Eastern man
as permanent chairman of the con- ,
vention. Former Ambassador and
Senator Walter Edge Of New Jersey
was said by high party officials to be
likely choice.
Both posts will be formally filled at I
meeting Of the Committee on Ar
rangements for the convention April
81 at Cleveland. The convention meets
June 9.
Democrats Await Action.
Democrats have not yet chosen any !
Of their convention officials. National
Chairman James A. Farley said the Sc
lections would not be made until Presi-
dent Roosevelt returned from his
Southern vacation and had chance
to go over the prospects.
The Democratic Committee on Ar
rangements will meet in Philadelphia
late this month to select the conven-
ton officials President Roosevelt's s
choices are expected to prevail.
High Democrats said Senator Rob-
inson Of Arkansas, the majority
leader. was a likely selection for per-
manent chairman, with a Westerr
Governor the probable choice for
keynoter Senator Wagner, DEMO-
crat, of New York may be chosen to|
nominate President Roosevelt for the
second term.
Robinson was permanent chairmanw
Of the 1920 Democratic Convention
at San Francisco and again at Hous-
ton eight years ago He is regarded
as an exceptionally capable presiding
officer.
Gov. Paul B. McNutt of Indiana
has been frequently mentioned as a
possible Democratic keynoter, but
high Democrats said 1t was mora
likely to be man from farther West,
such as Gov. Clyde L. Herring Of \
Iowa or c. Ben Ros of Idaho.
With possibilities of a bitter fight I
over the presidential nomination, Re-
publican chieftains were anxious to
find a keynoter who would speak for
the party as whole and not one on
the factions. They felt they had found
one in Lowden.

Gracious Way Out?
A Washington society mystery has
been stirred up over the qustion Of
why Mrs. Isabella Greenway, the we'll
liked Arizona Congressional decided
not to run again. She is an old friend
and bridesmaid of the Roosevelts.
All she has told her friends is that
she wants to give more time to her son.
What they believe Is that she took the
gracious way out of continuing to
vote against the White House. (She
never let her friendship interfere with
her voting, opposing Mr.. Roosevelt on
the economy bill and many another.)
At a White House dinner, Mr..
Roosevelt is said to have twitted her
about it. wtereupon she replied:
Frank, wish you would come out
for something that I could be for"

Their Own Worst Critics.
A group of prominent Republican
business men paid their personal re-
spects to their own Republican politi-
cos at private luncheon in New York
the other day. The consensus was that
the Republican campaign is nothing to
brag about right now from technical
standpoint.
Mourned one: "Our Republican
politicians look like a bunch of
amateurs playing against these Net0
Deal professionals.
Ldnented another: "They Diu re-
elect Roosevelt before they get
through"
Specific complaints were that the
Republicans in Congress and on the
stump were being outgeneraled; that
Republican Chairman Fletcher had
failed to establish a formidable CEN
tral control in the national committee;
that a weakly co-ordinated makeshift
leadership is being presented.
Dark Suspicion.
A well-known big business man In
the heavy goods industry has been
working to line up few of his top
confreres for Roosevelt. He will call
them "the Business Committee for
Roosevelt" or something like that.
The idea is to further the opin-
ion that not all big business is
against the New Deal. His COM

THANKS, A MILLION"

AS one of the physically prescribed citizens who
walks by sight but by faith, the writer takes this
expressing sincere thanks to Mayor Couzens and
the members of the Detroit Common Council for their
magnificent spirit of humanitarian recently manifested to-
ward the blind men and women of our city, by the enact
ment of the "Whte Cane Ordinance" Thanks are also
extended the members of the Lions Club, who supplied
each blind person with white cane.
This ordinance throws a protecting arm around the
sphtess citizens of Detroit by making unlawful for any
moorist to fail to bring his to STOP when blind
nerson is crossing at street intersection and raises the
white cane with which has been provided for this pur
pose.
This is indeed great boon to the blind, so many OF

The streets of Detroit are so cluttered with uafhc

but with the aid the magic white canes with whch ~
have lately been provided the risk will be considerably

Los Angeles-(ANP)-Details of
why Miss Pansy Lee Harper filed
suit against Rex Ingram, de
Lawd' of the Warner Bros. film,
THE Green Pastures" now await
ing release, were given to the AS
sociated Negro Press this week.
According to Miss Harper, In
gram proposed marriage around
Aug. "a, 1884, and she accepted.
The wedding date was set for Eas-
ter Sunday of 1885. When that
time came, they both mutually
agreed to wait until a later date
and TO be married this Spring in
California.
Around Feb. 16, Rex told her he
would not marry her, the woman
declares. But between the date of
her acceptanc and this date, they
were in constant communication.
The prospective bridegroom also
told various friend they were to be
married.
1t was not until later that she
learned the actor had a wife. Miss
Harper declares the news came as
a shock to her as she believed he
was as free to marry as was she.
Relying upon this marriage pro-
posal, she sacrificed whatever
chance she had to marry someone
else and his change of mind has
wounded her pride and feelings
and has caused her great humilia-
ton and mental anguish, Miss
Harper asserts.
