LIGHT DISCIPLINE
FOR FLYER SEEN
"A Great Day for the Irish,'
Says Air Commerce
Bureau Head.

The Atlantic flight of Douglas p.
Corrigan in 4 homemade plane fab
bergasted the Air Commerce Bureau
today.
Ondcials were so astonished that
they could not think Immediately
what to do about CorriSans hopping
of without permit. One oficial
said, 1T amt right"
Corrigan neither asked nor received
a permit to fly to Europe Regula tions
provide for penalties ranging from a
fine to revocation OF a pilots license
in such cases.
Dennis P. Mulligan, chief of the
Air Commerce Bureau. said he had
postponed the question of punishment.
ITS a great day for the Irish," he
commented with a broad grin.
Instead of worrying about Corrigan's
punishment, Mr.. Mulligan said. right
now 1 want to make every effort to
keep him from flying back" .
Glad He Landed Safely.
Although aghast at the fight with
OuG d pei N1A AASC 4uCc-
ton to reporters was whether Corrigan
landed safely
Fine" he rejoiced on news of Cor
rigan's safety.
Mr. Mulligan disclosed that Corrigan
made some 'overtures" about obtain
ing permit for the flight and was
discouraged. The chief suggested Cor
rigan made no formal application be-
cause he knew it would be denied.
The air commerce head also was
worried about others trying the same
thing.
we've got problem to keep other
youngsters from trying It," he said.
Meanwhile, other bureau officials
checked Corrigan's record in prepara-
ton for what Mulligan said probably
would be the gentle discipline" that
might be necessary when Corrigan
returns
The Irish Legation said meanwhile
that Corrigan came down in Ireland
apparently without an American pass
port or an Irish visa, but would be
welcomed just the same.

A four-year period Of harmony"
with its employees cost the Republic
Steel Corp. more than 3627 900, it
vas disclosed before the Senate Civil
Liberties Committee today
Covering 4 stretch from June, 1893,
to April. 1897. the expenditures were
broken down as follows:
For employe representation plan
S3s2, 2,120.
For fighting strikes-$214l29.
For munitions and gas-$2l 900.
That the strike cost item is not
complete was indicated from the fact
that it was submitted by the company
auditor as pertaining to only four
strikes during those years. Chairman
La Toilette submitted figures from the
Bureau Of Labor Statistics, however,
to show that the company had l3
strikes in the time covered.
Charles NJ White, vice president
OF the company, said the gas and
munitions were bought because it was
felt necessary to be prepared to "repel
an invasion"
Earlier. Mr. White told the commit
tee his company does not expect to
be blackjacked" into signing q con-
tract with professional" labor union
Calls C. l. O. Lewis Kingdom.
Describing the c. l. o. as king
dom" set up by John L. Lewis, Mr..
White testified that Republic prefers
to deal with a union in which en-
ployes are given choice of their Of
ficers.
1T always has been our policy that
our employees should not have to pay
some one for the privilege of talking
to the boss" he declared
I'VE do not expect to be black
lacked, or have our men black lacked,
into joining a union they don't want
and that we prefer not to deal with"
Mr.. White said
Labor relations policies of Republic
Corp, third largest unit of the steel
industry, became noticeably more
severe" in 1884, according to testi-
mony at the hearing. In that year
the company terminated contractual
relationship of more than 20 years
with the Amalgamated Association OF
Iron, Steel and Tin Workers
Recalls Girdler's Talk.
This action fell at about the time
Tom Girdler, then president and now
board chairman Of Republic, was
telling the Iron and Steel Institute
that his company would not deal with
the Amalgamated or any professional
union and that he hoped other steel
companies would follow similar policy.
The Amalgamated. then an affiliate
Of the American Federation of Labor,
became nucleus of the Steel Workers
Originating Committee. of the c. I. O.
in 1896.
According to union witnesses, Re-
public was busily forming company
unions in 1894.

MI. f1OOeS COlQ the EatNeTlng AT the
Mayflower that there Is constant con-
fiict between States and cities and
the granting of home rule to munich
palities Is the most vital problem@that
confronts American States today
He said that cities need greater
powers to handle new social problems.
The proposal that cities should be
allowed to tax Federal property if the
Federal Government should levy in
come taxes on municipal employees and
bonds also was discussed at the meet
ing. The issue was raised by John
N sebrell. city attorney Of Norfolk.
Va, and chairman Of the institutes
Committee on Taxation, in discussing
problems confronting cities Of the
Nation N attempting to raise revenue.
The definite trend OF legislation
and court decisions seems to be un-
mistakeably in the direction Of less
and less immunity of State and mu-
nicipal interests from Federal tax
ation," he said. president Roosevelt
has announced that he desires legis-
lation to subject all State and mu-
nicipal salaries and the income from
State and municipal bonds to Federal
income taxation"
Reviews Court Decisions.
Mr.. Sebrell reviewed several recent
Supreme Court decisions and declared
that the trend seemed to indicate
that the Federal Government is 60
ing to take every possible step to tax
all State and municipal employees,
bonds and perhaps the income of
cities from their public utility opera
tions, reducing any exempt subject
matter to the barest possible mini
num-
What reciprocity is promised?
Legislation permitting State and NUM-
cipal income taxation OF Federal obli-
cations is the offer"
Pointing out that cities would get
little practical benefit from permission
to levy income taxes on present tax
exempt Federal securities because few
cities have income taxes and little
revenue could be anticipated from such
a levy. Mr.. Sebrell said some equitable
reciprocity" could be worked out only
If the Federal Government is willing
to permit State and local taxation of
property of the Federal Government
within the local areas"
Hits legislative Restrictions.
He emphasized in this connection
that Income taxation is the principal
source Of Federal revenue, but taxation
OF real property is the principal source
Of State and local funds"
Mr.. Sebrell also urged elimination
of State restrictions upon sources of
taxation by cities. pointing out that
many cities had been placed in a
Legislative straight-ja by State
limitations.
Approximately 100 municipal law
officers were attending the institute
sessions which will continue through
tomorrow. They were to visit the
Federal Bureau Of Investigation this
afternoon and to attend a symposium
on municipal and government corpora
tions at the George Washington Uni
versity Law School at S pm.
