RISE IN INCOME
TAX LIKELY FOR
FARM PROGRAM
Cost Of Agricultural
Plan Is Studied
BY WILLIAM S. NEAL

UN.S) The possibility of a
sharp boost in individual income
taxes to finance the new farm
program arose today as the House
Agriculture Committee shunted
the financing program to the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee.
At the same time, there was
mounting congressional senti-
ment, led by Chairman O'Connor
of the House Rules Committee,
for immediate modification of the
undistributed profits tax and the
capital gains levy, before Presi-
dent Roosevelt's five-point legisla-
tive program is taken up, to check
the downward spiral of business.
VTNSON OPPOSED
Representative VinSon CD of
Kentucky, chairman Of the House
Ways and Means subcommittee
studying the tax problem, dis
agreed with O'Connor, declaring
"It will take a long time to do
the tax job properly" and warn
ing against "hasty action"
Bitter opposition to processing
taxes, which had been tentatively
adopted by the Agriculture Com
mittee, was admittedly strong in
the Ways and Means Committee.
With estimates Of the additional
cost Of the new farm program
ranging from SITE, ,0O0,000 to $275,-
100000, the only apparent alterna-
tive methods of meeting the cost
are boosting individual income tax
rates, increasing the burden on
corporations, or approving new
sales taxes.
Reports that President Roose-
yelt has ordered abandonment of
processing taxes as a means Of
financing the farm program were
flatly denied by members. Fear
Of the law being held unconstitu-
tional, if processing taxes were
kept in it, was the reason given as
the real one for abandonment of
processing taxes.
TAKES UP TASK
Chairman Doughton Cd Of
North Carolina of the Ways and
Means Committee said his COM
mittee will accept the task and find
some way to provide the necessary
money.
Abandonment Of process ing
taxes by the Agriculture Commit.
tee may change the whole ad.
ministration tax revision program.

Before the leaflets were dropped

CITY BOMBED DAILY
Henry McNulty, a member OF

Warplanes bomb the city daily. He
said conditions there are so bad
that Americans in charge of the
wounded had decided to move
them further into the interior.
The eventual aim of the Jap
