They Vote: We Don't

III HE House has passed halt-studled and lightly
considered bill imposing new, increased, expert
mental and possibly unnecessarily high taxes on the
residents of the National Capital.
This action was taken at time when probably not
single member of the House would have dared to go
into his own district among his voting constituents,
and ask them to accept heavier tax burden than they
are already carrying
1t was taken at time when members of the House
turn pale at the slightest mention of the possibility of
increasing Federal taxes to meet the ever-mounting
expenses of the Federal Government.
There u.s. of course obvious explanation of the diff
ference in treatment which members of the House &C
cord the "folks back home" and the Americans who
chance to live and EARN their living in the National
Capital
The "folks back home' through their votes dictate
to the members of the House.
The residents of Washington, being voteless, accept
the dictatorship of the members Of the House
The presumption should be that these great national
legislators would take pride in their National Capital
and would in the interest of true craftsmanship treat
the voteless residents of democracy at least well
as they would treat those who can vote.
But the presumption is false glance at the
In fact the debate merely carried on the absurdties
which before the tax bill reported.
Everyone in the House who was at all concerned
threw up his hands in hopeessness when it sug-
gested that the prospective deficit which made the
taxes necessary could be eliminated if rigid economy
written into the District appropriation bill for the
coming year.
ALTHOUGH THESE SAME CONGRESSMAN
WOULD HAVE INSISTED ON THAT SAME
ECONOMY IF THE BILL WERE GOING TO MEAN
INCREASED TAXES FOR THEIR VOTING NEIGH
BORIS, THEY DIDN'T THINK IT WORTH CONsID-
ERING WHEN THE TAXES WERE TO BE I'M
POSED ON THOSE POWERLESS TO INTERFERE
WITH THEIR POLITICAL CAREERS.
After the tax bill had been amended so as to make
certain that the Congressman would not have to pay
local income tax in the District of which they are at
least part-time residents the bill went through with
CELEBRITY.
But wonder how the approved increase in the real
estate tax rate strikes those members who own extern
sive holdings Of Washington real estate.
These Representative owners were among the first
to insist on a new tax law which would ''spread the
base" and lift Of the load off local real estate
They may have spread the base but they increased
the realty tax by twenty cents the hundred dollars
of valuation.
ALL THAT WASHINGTON CAN HOPE FOR NOW
Is THAT THE SENATE MAY FIND TIME TO GIVE
SERIOUS AND DISTINGUISHED ATTENTION TO
THIS TAX BILL AND THAT THAT BODY WILL
RECTIFY SOME OF THE MANY MISTAKES CAR
RED THROUGH THE HOUSE.

Short Subject

Hertford, July 26- Patrons OF
the State Theatre Saturday gazed
on familiar scenes surrounding
Nags Head in The Graveyard of
Ships" the title applied by Van
Buren Productions to the section
of Nags Head and Cape Hatteras
noted for its shipWrecks.
Beautifully described by the
voice of Alois Esvrilla, R.KO
commentator, the short subject
dealt with wrecks along the ex-
tremely hazardous coast. Seen in
the picture were shots of the old
Paraguay" Greek tanker which
split up in a storm just north of
the 2. A. Harris cottage the Cape
HatteraS light, with a personality,
identified by those who know him
as Frank Stick, pointing out the
intricacies of the light, one scene
in which the remains of seven
shipwrecks were shown at once,
aud beautiful shots of the beach
itself.
Captain John Allan Midget of
the Chicamicomico Coast Guard
station, was pictured beside the
surfboat in which he rescued 40
men from the burning hulk of a
British oil tanker some years ago.
The personnel of the same sta
ton was shown in practice on the
the beach with breeches buoy,
Chief Mate Basnight firing the
gun which throws a tow line
across the ship in distress.
These hardy men of the banks
guardians of the most dangerous
precinct on the Atlantic Coast
are at last gaining some of the
recognition they richly deserve.
Several Nags Head cottages were
caught in the film and the seclu-
sion of the Cape Hatteras villages
is no more since several native
fisher families and their homes
were shown and the pictures will
be seen by millions of theatre-go-
ers throughout the country. The
film, approximately thousand
feet lasts for about nine -,finuteS
The showing was well attended
here and a few people were thrill
ed to catch glimpses of their own
cottages.

The nervous selling in the ma

The daily independent., 1937-07-27

dampening influence on traders
Many have been active in COM
modltleS during the recent months
OF stock dullness and any breaks
that could bring major losses ma
turally would be a threat to Ii
quidating of stocks to meet COM
modify commitments.
The steel picture presented an
excellent one for the optimistic
traders who would ignore the COM
modify picture. Steel production
this week is scheduled at 84.3 per
cent Of capacity, a gain of 1.8
points over the previous week and
the highest operating rate since
May "a. Directors of United States
Steel corporation meet after the
close of the market tomorrow and
undoubtedly will declare a So divi-
dend on the preferred to meet the
quarterly requirements and clear
up arrears. There are some optim-
lStlc enough to believe that a divi-
dend of 81 per share will be made
on the common stockton which
there has been no payment since
l932-although this view is not
commonly held.
The result of these two situa-
tions accounts for a market such
as developed today. Only 100000
shares were exchanged and prices
were ragged, backing and filling
in the brokerage office vernacular.
The market opened firm with
utilities again active. Then indus
trials broke. Around noon there
was mild rally. The market
again receded and near the close
prices were coming back from
their lows. But there was nothing
definite to any of the movements
and traders anticipated similar
markets until the steel and COM
modify problems were out of the
way.
Economists views for excellent
operations for the remainder of
the year are heartening but at the
moment most trade is quiescent.
Railroads present a problem in
that June earnings of 81 roads
show IA up and 7 off from year
ago with the total dipping under
recent months. There is also the
possibility of an increase in wages
which will further impair the
roads earnings. Utilities are max
ing a fairly good earnings showing
and there is a greater trade inter-
est in this group.
