MELONS Old Idea

A PRELIMINARY official poll
"A was made Of the Senate on
the La Toilette base-broadening
tax plan before debate started.
It showed, contrary to current
popular belief, there were then
no more than SO to SO votes for
1t. Ten to IL more votes will
have to be found if it is to pass
and these will be hard to get.
Strangely enough, the poll
showed an unexpected number
Of conservative Democrats in
favor Of the plan. The explana.
ton is, essentially it is an old
conservatives idea.
Liberals seem to have Dor
fowed it from no less q con-
sentative authority than the
late Secretary Mellon. He once
proposed reduction Of exemp-
tions to make more people pay
income taxes so they would feel
Q greater responsibility toward
government.
Incidentally an official inside
survey was also made on the
Pope processing tax, indicating
it would receive fewer votes
than the La Toilette plan.
Congress will not stand for
taxing the little fellows and
foodstuffs in a depression and
campaign year.

Mr.. Roosevelt has ordered

incidentally, he never wears
a vest to work. That is why

The Senate floor was so empty
I thought I had got into the

Some wouldn't even get up

was monotonous, so left.
