Says:

Well, I see some Of our hard
thinking Congressman are now
talking up a 30-hOur week law.
That means out Of 1853 hours q
week, we have 1873 Of leisure.
And If the law ever passes,
they'd better clear out q lot Of
underbruSh in the CatSkill
Mountains because there'll be
an awful bunch Of American
wOrkmen telling Rip Van Win
kle to move over.
Up to now, a heavyweight
champion was the only man
who labOred so minutes to get
in a good years work. But
Congress will fix that up.
The main trouble with a 30
hour week. as 1 see it, is that
the Sunday drivers will be all
set to scOOt out on the high
ways by Friday noon. And If
the law goes into effect, the
only way the American labOrer
can help getting home to sup
per at $3.50 p. m. is to take q
three hour lunch hour.
And come to think Of it, with
toll limited to 30 hours per
weekum, q fellow needing a day
and night nurse had better hire
himself the FlOrOdOra Sextet.

INCOME LEVY
IS VIRTUALLY
ASSURED
Tentatively Pro-
poses New Tax on
Earnings Over ST. 900

Battling against time in an ef.
fort to draft a program of in.
creased taxation which will meet
with the approval of the Con.
gressional District Committee,
the District Commissioners have
called what they hope will be the
final meeting of their special tax
committee for tomorrow.
Rebuffed in an effort to pro-
mulgate a 2 per cent sales tax
for the Capital, which would
have raised 100000, the city
heads were forced to fall back
on the controversial income tax
levy proposal and the business
privilege tax.
Tentatively the city heads and
the tax committee have agreed to
an income tax which, will raise
approximately $2,000,000. The
municipal tax group is consider.
ing levying on the 1886 incomes
of residents along a range of / to
5 per cent. It also has been
tentatively agreed that the in
come tax measure will exempt
single persons with incomes Of
$1,000 or less and married persons
with incomes of $4,000 or less
with an allowance of $500 for
each dependent.
In its original recommendations
for a five-point tax program, the
tax committee declined to foster
the income tax measure due to a
fear that the bill might be held
unconstitutional in the courts.
The committee tentatively has
agreed upon a business privilege
tax rate of three-fifth of / per cent
on gross business receipts of firms
in the District and this tax Is ex.
pected to yield approximately 49,.
600, 200. Originally the tax group
had considered rate of one.half

alton program into shape, which
will meet the objections of the con.
gresSlonal committees, the Com.
m1ssioners and their tax experts
have to finish their job so that
the new measures may go into eff.
feet July l, the opening of the
fiscal year. The new taxes are
necessary to meet an anticipated
deficit of between $4,000, 900 and
100000 for the coming fiscal
year.
Following the final meeting at
the District Building, the Commits
SionerS are scheduled to 60 before
the special House District tax sub
committee, headed by Represen-
tatiVe Ambrose j. Kennedy. This
committee last week killed the
city heads proposal for the sales
tax and approved the income tax
proposal, which also is looked
upon faVorably by two Senate
District Committee leaders
Chairman William H. King and
Arthur Capper.
In addition to the income tax,
the city heads and their commit
tee have gained the approval Of
the House group for an increased
insurance tax, an estate and in.
heritance tax, an automobile
weight tax.

JERSEYVILLE, ILL.,, Dec. 25.-Tear
gas foiled burglars who attempted to
break into the main vault of the Jer-
SEVILLE Post Once early today after
they had rifled between 500 and 1000
letters.
Fleeing from the building, the safe

There were indications at least two
men entered the post ofice by forcing
open q window on the street side of
the one-story building, opposite the
courthouse.
The odor Of the gas still was strong
when Euryl Hunter, an assistant clerk,
entered the building this morning and
discovered the burglary. There was
no way Of determining the amount
of money the men may have taken
from the letters they opened.
The vault, which was equipped
with tear gas protection recently, con-
tanned the heavy receipts of the last
minute Christmas trade, stamps and
Government baby bonds. Postal
inspectors were summoned from st.

Washington today is celebrating the

gay in the knowledge that, 50 far as
human kindness and good will can
guarantee, there is today no hunger
or suffering in the Capital.
There perhaps never has oeen great
er activity in Washington in the true
spirit of Christmas than this year.
Thousands of Christmas baskets have
been distributed to families known to
be In need to insure that no matter
what have been their privations they
will be we'll fed and warmed on this
Christmas Day.
To every child whose daily lot brings
him face to face with poverty and
unhappiness there has come some gift
as evidence that the spirit Of Christ
mas has not died from the land and
that none, even the humblest, has
been forgotten.
Hundreds of charitable, civic and
business organizations, churches,
schools and individuals have taken
upon themselves the responsibility Of
bringing some measure Of Christmas
happiness into every place which peo-
pie know as home, even in the sorriest
of slums and back-eddies.
President Roosevelt in his Christmas
message to the Nation yesterday eve
ming at the lighting Of the National
Community Christmas Tree in Lafay-
ette Park preached a sermon OF uni
versal peace by borrowing as his text
the words of a newspaper column
which pointed out that the Savior
bestowed his good will even upon his
betrayer, Judas Iscariot.
The President prefaced his talk with
brief remark about the weather.
Here in Washington it is raining"
he said. In other parts Of the coun-
try it is showing In still other parts
there is sunshine and it Is warm. But
In every part Of the land, in every
community and in every home, it is
| Christmas Eve"
Mr.. Roosevelt explained that the
column, by Haywood Broun, had ap-
pealed to him ''as a Christmas SER
mon" He used the parable to stress
the want Of universal peace, but left
its Interpretation to his radio listeners
and to q crowd of several thousand
who stood in a fine, chilly rain to
join with the President in the official
opening of the Christmas season.
Biblical In theme, the story was ST
an old dominic who was troubled in

was upon him of delivering q Christ
