ACT BECOMES
WITHOUT
HIS SIGNATURE
Revision of Entire
System Urged
BY GEORGE DURNO

ARTHURDALE, w. Va, May
a U.N.S0.-President Roosevelt,
using 10 graduating high school
students as q backdrop, this after.
noon advised the nation over the
radio that he was permitting the
1898 $500. OOO, 900 tax bill to be-
come a law without his signature
and vigorously assailed the manner
in which Congress revised and
modified the undiStributed profits
and capital gains taxes.
This tax bill, which in many
respects is q good one, actually
abandons the accepted principle
of progressive taxation at a
point which is very important to
our economic life." Mr.. Roosevelt
declared from the gymnasium
Of the New Deals first sub
sistence homestead project here.
ASKS REVISION
The President called for O gen.
eral overhauling Of the entire tax
system, State, local and Federal,
next year.
He charged that, as Congress
revised the undistributed profits
tax, "the penalty for withholding
dividends to stockholders is so
smaIi-only az per cent, at the
most-that 1t is doubtful whether
it will wholly eliminate the old
tax avoidance practices Of the
past"
Carefully pointing out that he
was attacking mo person." Mr..
Roosevelt took sharp issue with
those who blame the existing tax
set-up for sitting business initiar
tive. He pointed out that about
80 per cent of all capital gains
come from stock market profits
and he insisted that such Specula-
tive use Of money was not doing
anything to revive the country.
Dealing specifically with capital
gains he said:
"This new bill wholly elimin-
ates the progressive tax princi-
pie with respect to these capital
profits; it takes small capital
profits and large capital profits
at exactly the same rate"

A meeting Of the CLIO United

CLIO AND ALL MEETING
Another meeting was arranged

expected action Of the union in
calling a strike. The union hastily
threw pickets around the plants
shortly before midnight, and the
riot broke out.

strike started after the union had

he will do with his winnings IN

LOS ANGELES, Dec 10.-Even
grated skin has failed to erase the
Nazi swastika brand on his right
arm, burned there while he was in
a German concentration camp, Ronis
Schlerman, 33, Jewish refugee, said
here yesterday.
Mr.. Schlerman said he was forced
to leave Berlin University, where
he was professor of botany, sell
his valuable home, from which he
eventually received but SO. and Or
dered to leave the country.
Unable to get out of Germany on
this small amount, Mr.. Schlerman
related, he was sent to q concentra-
ton camp, where he and other Jews
were offered water from officers
wash basins to drink and frequently
were made to get down on their knees
and lick up dirt.
He was stabbed with bayonet, he
said, when he refused to help bury
other Jews who had died in the camp
and the NaZi swastika was burned
into his flesh.
Rescued by a group of American
friends who had attended Berlin
University, he reached New York
two months ago and received treat
ment for the infected arm brand.
Living here with friends, Mr.. Schler-
man said he still is receiving treat
ment for injuries suffered in the
concentration camp.
