DSS i. g.. BASKERVILLE

Raleigh, Dec. 2.-The Caldwell
County Electric Membership Corpora
ton, which has received tentative
grant Of about 100000 from the Fed
eral Rural Identification Administra-
tion must obtain q certificate of con-
venience and necessity from the
North Carolina Utilities Commission
before the North Carolina Rural Elec-
triflcation Authority will approve it's
application for loan. the NCREA
decided again here in meeting Tues
day. Thus the NCREA struck by it's
guns and adhered to the policy pre-
ViouSly decided upon. requiring all
electric membership corporations seek
ing Federal REA loans to first secure
certificates of convenience and neces-
sity from the Utilities Commission.
AS result of this action by the
NCREA, Utilities Commissioner STAN
ley Winb0rne, has set December IS as
the date for the hearing by the Cald-
we'll county cooperative for it's GER
tificate Of convenience and necessity.
If the certificate is granted, the be-
lief is that the NCREA will then sign
the application and give it's approval
to the Caldwell county enterprise. The
authority now takes the position that
unless the cooperative secures this
certificate, it might be subject to
court action md have an Injunction
suit brought against it such as was
brought against the Johnston county
electric membership corporation by
the Carolina Power and Light Com
pany and which has halted all rural
identification in that county pending
the appeal to the Supreme Court on
the case there. But if the Caldwell
county group obtains a certificate Of
convenience and necessity it win be
impossible for the Duke Power Com
pany or any other agency to prevent
the cooperative from building it
proposed rural electric lines.
Some believed that both the NC
REA and the State Utilities Commits
sion might attempt to postpone action
on the Caldwell cooperative as a re-
suit of the Johnston county case, now
on appeal to the supreme court. But
both Chairman Dudley Bagley of the
NCREA and Commissioner Winborne
said today that they intended to pro-
coed with the Caldwell county case ON
It's merits without paying any atten-
ton to the Johnston county case.
Chairman Bagley also pointed out
that the NCREA is really acting to
help and protect electric membership
corporations by insisting that they
get certificates from the Utilities
Commission, since these certificates
will protect them from any court ac-
ton by power companies.

BORAH RUNS BEHIND
IN 0HIO'S PRIMARY
Trails Taft Slate, but He
Wins West Virginia.
By United Press

Returns of yesterdays Ohio pri-
mary today showed the favorite-son
slate of Robert A. Taft outdistanc-
ing delegates pledged to Senator
William E. Borah in the Republican
presidential contest.
Taft delegateS-at-large in each
case led those pledged to Mr.. Borah,
who had campaigned actively in
Ohio against use of the 'favorite
son" candidates. in pre-convention
maneuvering.
In spite of apparent loss of the
delegate-at-large vote, Senator
Borah appeared likely to win from
four to eight Of the Republican dis
trict delegates.
In contrast, Senator Borah polled
substantial Republican compli-
mentary vote IN the West Virginia
primary where he was unopposed.
President Roosevelt ran far ahead
of Col. Henry Breckenridge, his
anti-New Deal opponent, in the
Ohio Democratic presidential prefer
ence contest. He was receiving ap-
proximately 200 votes for each Is
cast for Col. Breckenridge. In West
Virginia the Presidents compli-
mentary vote was more than double
that accorded Mr.. Borah.

NATURAL GAS URGED
FOR LOCAL INDUSTRY
North Side Federation of
Clubs Hears Atkins.

The North Side Federation of
Clubs today is on record as favoring
introduction of natural gas into In
dianapolis to keep industries already
here and induce new ones to locate
here.
The move was taken at meeting
in the Marott Hotel last night after
E. c. Atkins, president of the E. c..
Atkins & Co., predicted that unless
Indianapolis provides natural gas,
outside industries will not locate
here and many already here will be
forced to move
Mr.. Atkins said that his company
had been offered a 35-acre site at
Charleston, w. Va, and site at
Newcastle with adequate fuel sup
plies.
Reginald Sullivan, former Indian
apolis mayor, was quoted by Mr.. At
kins as having Saio that the city
would take over the gas company
and that provisions would be made
for belt line around the city to
supply natural gas to local manu-
facturers. The provision has not
been made Mr. Atkins said.
He also said the National Male
able and Steel Castings Co., which
operate factories at Indianapolis,
Chicago and Cleveland, has been
prevented from building core ovens
here because of the expense of the
available gas. They now are con-
structing the ovens in Chicago where
natural gas can be obtained.

GENEVA. May 13.-League. Coun-
Gil members feared today that the
situation threatening the Leagues
effectiveness if not it's life, depended
for solution upon restoration of
friendship between Italy and Great
Britain.
Preparing to adjourn until mid
June, leaving in force penalties ex-
acted against Italy for it's war on
Ethiopia, delegates felt that the
League can do nothing to extricate
itself from threatening position
while Italy and Britain are es-
tranged.
They felt the anger of Italy at
Britain overshadowed for the pres
ent the situation precipitaied by
Italys withdrawal from the coun-
Gil meeting.
Italy has left the council table be-
fore during the Italian Ethiopian
war. This time Premier Benito
Mussolini not only withdrew his
delegation but ordered all Italian
cooperation with the League sus-
pended until the 50-odd nations in
the League repudiate their pledge
to aid Ethiopia and agree to recog-
nize his conquest.

TAX SUGGESTED
Senate Proposal Would Keep
Principle Espoused
by Roosevelt.
Editorial on Page Fcurteen)
BY THOMAS L. STOKES
Times Snecial Writer

WASHINGTON, May 13.---Pres-
ident Roosevelt and his Treasury
forces retreated today before bel
ligerent group of Democrats on the
Senate Finance Committee and were
ready to accept compromise on the
undistributed profits tax passed by
the House.
A plan being whipped into shape
by Chairman Pat Harrison d.,
Miss, which apparently is to be
the basis of the committees bill,
would retain in modified form the
principle espoused by the President
and thus will save the Administra-
tons face. The President never did
recommend any specific measure
though Treasury experts collabor-
ated in writing the House bill.
Chairman Harrison waited today
for Treasury estimates to see if his
compromise would produce $780,
100000 annual revenue, the amount
needed to close the gap left by en-
actment of the bonus and invalida-
ton of the processing taxes.
1t would provide Is per cent
flat corporation income tax, re-
tain the present excess profits and
capital stock tax, and impose a
graduated Super-tax on all m
distributed earnings above 80 per
cent, with rates ranging from 5 per
cent to As per cent on earnings be-
yond SO per cent which are with
held
BY retaining the corporation tax
es, the proposed compromise would
guarantee revenue return from a
tried and sure source, and, at the
same time, would introduce the
undistributed profits tax on an ex-
perimental basis without endanger-
ing the capital structure of corpora
lions and without the necessity of
complicated provisions to meet spe-
cial corporation situations.
The 80 per cent exemption elimi-
mates many hardships and permits
corporations to build up reserves.
This figure was taken because it is
the average of earnings withheld
for surplus.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 13.-
Thomas H. Robinson Jr., frightened
by the possibility of dying on the
gallows for the kidnapping of Mrs.
Alice Speed Stoll, has agreed to
trade guilty plea for prison SEN
tence, it was reported today.
United States District Attorney
Bunk Gardner said he expected the
29-year-old female impersonator,
who fell to the Omen after a year
and half as a fugitive, would
plead guilty.
Mr.. Gardner denied the report
that Robinson had been assured he
would not be sentenced to death if
he pleaded guilty.
There has been no trade, he
said.
1t was rumored that Robinson
may be arraigned before Federal
Judge Elwood Hamilton at 4:30 this
afternoon.
Judge Hamilton may sentence
Robinson to prison for any term of
years up to life on guilty plea.
Should Robinson plead not guilty
his trial probably will be set for the
middle of June, it was indicated. If
he is brought to trial, Mr. Gardner
made it clear he would seek to have
Robinson condemned to death. He
believed that if Robinson decided to
chance death on the gallowS, he
would plead insanity. Robinson once
was confined in an insane asylum
for observation.
