Joe Benna, Golden Gloves well
terweight champion of Terre Haute,
won handily from Donald Deane of
Rosedale, Ind, in the windup event
with a knockout in the second round,
but it was his younger brother who
put on the fireworks of the evening
in his match with Jimmie Kruke-
meier, South Side Turner's light
weight, one of the supporting bouts.
Also Golden Gloves champ,
Johnny finished strong with a
clever, flashing attack to gain a
three-round decision over the game
Turner's fighter.
In the feature bout, scheduled
for four rounds, Deane was no
match for the experienced Benna.
Several smashes to the face drew
blood and blow to the solar plexus
took the fighting heart out of the
Rosedale scrapper.
Ivan Hunt, a loose jointed south
paw, from Vigo County, gained a
verdict over Lloyd Dodd, Fort Har-
rison light heavyweight in three
rounds Of wild smuggling.
Tommy Davidson, with a reach
advantage and a shifting attack,
won a slight-margin victory over the
red-headed Chuck Miller of Terre
Haute in the semi- windup. David
son set a target that was hard to
reach and dashed out with stab
bling barrage, but. Miller pressed him
the full three rounds. N
In other matches, Don ODay
knocked out Ray Cloud in the first
round, Charley Bruck gained deci-
sion over Jimmie Miller, Wally
Kicks kayoed Jimmie Paris in the

BY WILLIAM S. TARYER.

In a decision which may in
validate more than 100 pending
indictments and neSeSSitate re-
trial of three or four cases in
which convictions have been OBJ
tanned, the United States Court
of Appeals today held unconSti-
tutional the Districts new Jury
law which permits service of per-
sons receiving compensation
from or having contracts with
the Government.
The statute, which was held to
violate the requirement of the
sixth amendment for an impair
tlal trial, was passed August %,
1885, and became effective with
the beginning of the Fall term Of
court, October /.
Under it 768 indictments have been
returned and hundreds of persons
have been convicted by juries which
included Government workers. It
was thought by attorneys, however,
that only those convicted defendants
who challenged the validity of the law
during their trials may avail them.
selves OF the appellate courts ruling.
d. C. Opinion May Be Asked.
United States Attorney Leslie c.
Garnett and his aides gathered at
hasty conference this morning, were
uncertain whether the courts decision
applies to service on grand juries as
well as petty juries. That question
probably will be referred to the Justice
Department, which also will be called
on to decide whether the United States
Supreme Court viii be asked to re.
view the District Courts findings.
Activities Of the grand jury now
sitting, which includes several Gov
ernment employees, were halted so as
to prevent unnecessary expense to the
Government while the evact scope Of
the decision is being decided. Gar
nett ordered the grand jury to with
hold report of 81 indictments sched-
uled for this morning.
The judges of the District Supreme
Court had not decided this morning
whether they would take any steps to
prevent further service Of Govern.
nenG employees on Jur1eS this month.
The Police Court judges decided to
carry on until the expiration of the
month, when new juries will be chosen,
but to exclude Government workers
from trial panels.
None Serve This Month.
No Government workers have served
on District Supreme Court petty juries
this month since Justice Daniel
ODonoghue, influenced by the PEN
dency of the Wood case in the Court
of Appeals, decided to exclude them
until a ruling could be obtained.
Seventy-one persons have been con-
victed in Police Court by jurieS which
included Government employees or
pensioners. 1t could not be readily
ascertained, however, how many Of
these challenged the jury service law
during their trial, thereby placing
themselves in position to benefit by
the Court of Appeals ruling.
Validity of the jury service law has
been challenged so far in only two

DECIDE AGAINST
PROCESSING TAXES
House Subcommittee Re-
verses Itself in Prepar-
ing Report.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A House Ways and Means Subcon-
mittee reversed itself suddenly today
and agreed to keep processing and all
other excise taxes out of a report or
which the full committee will open
hearings Monday on the new revenue
program.
Chairman Samuel B. Hill told re-
porters:
We have eliminated entirely che
subject of processing taxes and all ex-
else taxes from the report as a basis
for hearings because We weren't very
keen for it at any time end felt we
would get pretty close to the amount
of money We need from other sources" {"
Reduce Corporation Levy.
The subcommittee agreed, too, he
said, to reduce from 331z to 22la per
cent the tax rate on dividends to nom
resident alien owners of stock in
American corporations. He said it
was felt the rate was too high and
the lower rate might even produce
more money.
Hill said it was expected that $751;
100000 of additional revenue would
be produced from a new corporation
tax, based on amounts of net income
held back for reserves; 5000, 900
from temporary continuation OF ex-
isting capital stock and excess profits
- IfoI
tax on unpaid or refunded A. A. A.
processing taxes, and around S25.000,-
900 from the levy on foreigners OBJ
tanning dividends on American stocks.
Yesterday the subcommittee had de-
cided to include processing taxes on
some 30 or more farm and competing
commodities and classes Of commodi-
ties in its report to the full commit
tee-without ndation-mere-
ly to permit their consideration in
open hearings. The yield from them
had been estimated at 1921 900 900.
Report Due Tomorrow.
Hill said the report, in which no
other changes are contemplated, will
be handed to the full committee to-
morrow.
President Roosevelt has suggested
that $500, 100000 extra Federal in
come be raised by taxes on corpora
ton dividends and undistributed net
income and $517,000,0 over two or
three years from the processing and
windfal lavies.
Hill said those proposals called for
$792, 100000 annually over three years.
He added that the subcommittee plan
would approximate that figure for the
first year.
Since the windfall levy and con-
tinuation of the capital stock and ex-
cess profit taxes are for one year only,
1t would be necessary to replace them
with other sources Of revenue to meet
the s792 900 900 total over the next
two years.
Subcommittee members have in
dicated that they believed next year
would be more strategic time to re-
sort to processing taxes, which they
considered politically dangerous in an
election year.
Levies Are Graduated.
The new corporation tax calls for
graduated rates of to 29k per cent
on corporations with net income up to
$4,000 q year, depending on whether
they withhold from 10 to 10 per cent
Of the total net income for reserves.
Corporations with net income Of
$4,000 or over would pay 4 to AZ
per cent, on the same brackets. A
complex schedule has been agreed
upon to permit favored treatment to
corporations in the $4,000 to s20. 900

SPEECH BY HITLER |
HALTS TRADE TALK
German-Russian ParIey Is
Checked as Result of
Assertions.
By the Associated Press.

BERLIN, March 25.-Trade nego-
tiations between Germany and Soviet
Russia have come to halt, both Ger
man and Russian official sources said
today, since Adolf Hitler's March z
Reichstag speech, announcing occu-
patton Of the Rhineland and denun-
citation of the Locarno pact.
This did not mean an actual rup-
ture Of negotiations. these sources
said, but postponement in dealings
over German loan and delay in COM
pleting current trade arrangements for
1886.
David Kandelaki, Soviet trade COM
missioner for Germany, is in Moscow
now, reporting on the situation as it
developed after Hitler's speech.
Efforts Started May. 1885.
Efforts by DR.. Hjalmar Schacht, Nazi
economics minister, to gain better eco
nomic relations with Russia date back
to May 21, 1935-one day after an
other Reichstag speech in which Hit
Ter. despite his fulminations against
bolshevism, said, nevertheless:
"The German government has no
other desire except that Of having
peaceful and friendly relations with
all her neighbors."
Twenty1four hours later Schacht in
vited the Soviet trade commissioner to
confer with him.
Since then, a slow, 1aborious Ger
man-Soviet trade approach has be-
come noticeable.
Possibility of Loan Held Out.
There was no stoppage in normal
business, and beyond that, Schacht
held out the possibility Of a loan to
Russia of half a million marks, in one
and full billion in another.
In return for this loan, orders for
German-manufactured goods, chiefly
were to be placed. Russia
was to repay the loan later, partly in
gold and partly in raw materials.
