KING SHIFTS
D. {. TAX
FIGHT
Turns Measure Over
IToMcCarran's Lead
On Senate Floor

The District tax bill became
such a "hot potato" today that
Senator William King CD of
Utah, chairman of the District
Committee, dropped it into the
lap of Senator Pat McCarran
CD of Nevada.
Senator McCarran ''juggled''
the bill from one hand to
another as he listened to debate
on the court plan in the Senate
chamber and announced he ex.
pected to report it favorably to-
day.
Senator King will file a mi
nority report against the Tydings
trade practices amendment. and
therefore decided that he should
not steer the bill through its
fight.
Senator McCarran also is not
completely satisfied with the new
draft of the measure. He said
he did not realize that under the
sales tax provision meals served
in restaurants would be taxed.
He said it was his understanding
that all foods were to be exempt.
There it a probability that he,
too, will vote against the Tyd-
ings amendment. He said he
voted in committee to allow it to
be attached to the bill, but he
was not welded" to the PROPOSE
ton.
Chances for an immediate con-
sheraton of the measure are
very slim. Senator McCarran
said he had no idea when it
could be called up, because Of
its controversial nature. He said

DODD HITS STRESS

Says He Has No Intention of
Revealing Names in "Dic.
tatorship" Letter.
~ the Associated Press.


BERLIN, May 14.-United States
Ambassador William E. Dodd, in
formed Of the Nye resolution calling
on him to name the billionaire," said
last night altogether too much stress
WAS being laid on single paragraph
OF his letter to Senator Robert j.
Bulkley-that referring to dictatorship.
He said he had no intention of re-
vealing the names Of his informants
or the name of the Millionaire who he
said in his letter, is ready to establish
. Fascist dictatorship in the United
States. He spoke today of some
i-millionaires"
He said he had received no instruc-
tfons from the State Department in
Washington concerning the affair.
The Senate showed slight interest
IN the identity of the Millionaire" yes
terday, referring a resolution intro
duced by Senator Nye to the Foreign
Relations Committee. Nye's resolution
called on the State Department to OBJ
tain the billionaire's name from Dodd.
81 The Ambassador issued the following
hteIilcllt 10 tIle press.
MY letter to Senator Bulklev gave
series of cases in which the Supreme
Court rendered verdicts under which
1t claimed the right to declare un-
constitutional acts of Congress of
vital Importance. I also showed how
both the Democratic and Republican
parties had abandoned their Presi-
dents, even when elected on over
whelming majorities, and, by joining
the opposition minority, defeating the
peoples expressed and definite will
This Is not saying majorities al
ways are right: but it was a Demo-
cratic ideal as old as our Nation.
1T Is strange to me that the Sen
ators failed to note how their people
had suffered from such defeats. They
picked out the paragraph which I
wrote saying that under present con-
dltlons similar defeat of the most
popular President since Jefferson
might give us break in the parties
and encourage some multi-millionaires
10 think a dictatorship might be set
up-a similar thing to what we have
In Europe. Three well informed
Americans talked to me in 1885 and
1886 about certain powerful men who
were thinking OF dictatorship. Only
one European repeated the idea, but
only after long sojourn in our coun-
TRY. All Of these people insisted upon
their conversation being strictly con-
ddential
The State Department does not
know any names and no official there
has intimated I should report to the
Senate Committee. My one point was
to suggest that there will be grave
danger if our great parties break up,
especially If another depression fol-
lows defeat of President Roosevelt's S
basic measures. This is all; but l
cannot help thinking that historical
examples and actual facts as to the
terrible defeat of Thomas Jefferson,
Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roose-
welt ought to be considered"

added belief that "in addition to ruling
upon the question raised =" the
court should lay down rules for the
guidance Of trial courts as to the
practice Of issuing temporary injun-
tions which in effect suspend the
operation of statutes"
The considerations which govern
the issuance Of temporary injunctions
In a suit between private parties have

against public officials, where the
damage to the public is readily ascer-
tainable and where the public interest
may be properly protected" she wrote.
However, the decisions recognize

to the public cannot be readily ap-
praised and where the acts complained
