With a double force working full

Office today continued to supply
the delinquent demands for dog

The Office yesterday presented
an appearance just the opposite

All day long queues formed and

cages instead of the usual two.
The rush Of business had reduced
the number of unlicensed dogs in
the city today to between 1000
and 5000. Tax Collector Chatham
M. Towers reminded that tags
will be sent out by mail if the
50 fee and a self-addressed envelope
is forwarded to his Office.

FIGHT OVER D. C..
TAX BILL is DUE
IN HOUSE TODAY
Tydings Fair Practices
Rider Is Opposed

Battle lines were being formed
for . heated scrap over the Miller
Tydings retail price maintenance
proposal when the conference re-
port on the District tax bill is
called up in the House today.
On the outcome Of this fight
hinges the fate of the District tax
measure as far as the House is
concerned.
There is expected to be little
discussion Of the tax provisions OF
the bill, since the House confereeS
won a decided victory over the
Senate agents on these provisions.
Even the most ardent House sup
porters Of the income tax proposal
are ready to go along with the tax
features as agreed upon by the
confereeS.
Sentiment Divided
However, there is strong senti-
ment in the House both for and
against the Miller-Tydings rider,
which was attached to the District
measure by the Senate and which
has nothing whatever to do with
District fiscal matters.
Proponents of the Miller.
Tydings rider on Capitol Hill
have declared that President
Roosevelt is not opposed to the
rider, while opponents assert
that the Chief Executive is un.
alterably opposed to it and
might even go so far as to veto
the entire measure (Which would
kill the tax bilD if the rider is
permitted to remain in the bill.
Features Proposed
The conference report, besides
recommending approval of the
rider, proposes the following
District tax features:
1. An increase in the realty
tax rate from S1.5O per 500
valuation to SITS.
2. A business privilege tax
of twO-fifths of / per cent.
3. An increase in the tax on
insurance premiums of from
IL per cent to 2 per cent.
4. A tightening Of the intan-
gible tax law.
5. A motor vehicle weight
tax.
6. Authorization for the Dis
trict Commissioner to bOrrO
from the Federal Treasury.
I. Authorization Of an apprt
priatiOn of $1,000 to be use
