| Cemetery Swindle
AT Sleepy Eye Is
Repeated In Chicago

Joseph Salavan and Robert
Charron, who pleaded guilty in
1886 and were fined $100 apiece,
latter inducing Henry Hager and
his sister, Mrs. Dorothy Beltz,
both of Sleepy Eye, to exchange
lS4,700 worth of securities for
cemetery lots in Ohio, are being
held in Chicago where they have
been indicted on similar charges.
They are also wanted in Rev
York and Cincinnati.
The swindle in which the. pair
is involved is the same they used
in Sleepy Eye.
1t involves the sale of lots in
Arlington Memorial Park associa-
ton of Cincinnati. These lots are
worthless and are mostly timber
and swamp, it was charged.
Salavan and Charron were in
dicted in Chicago last week with
$50 others on charges involving
the cemetery swindle.
The gang operated a good deal
on looking up people holding
bonds in the Forman Realty Trust
company and inducing these peo-
pie to trade them for cemetery
lots. The bonds, Grant said, be-
came practically worthless during
the depression, but have come
back now almost to par. He said
the gang got the people to believe
the bonds were no good and to
trade them for the lots.
When the pair worked in Sleepy
j Eye they induced MIR. Hager and
Mrs. Beltz to exchange $4,700
worth of securities, then failed to
give them receipts.
When the receipts were not
forthcoming the Brown county
people complained to police. In
Vestigation revealed the men had
| no license to sell stock in Mime
sofa.
They prepared to fight the case
and procured a defense attorney
who flew to New Ulm by plane.
They changed their minds about
fighting the case when they found
County Attorney Tom Streissguth
well prepared for them. They
pleaded guilty and were fined $10O
| and costs of $27 each and receiv-
| ed suspended sentences of one
| year in the state reformatory
Sentences were suspended on con-
dition that they cease to operate
in Minnesota.
In his complaint Mr.. Hager
charged that the men induced him
to trade $2,70O in realty trust
| bonds for the lots with a guar
antee that these lots could be re-
sold in two years at a profit and
that he would receive a regular
| income in the meantime.
Mrs. Beltz turned over $4,000
worth of realty trust bonds in ex-
change for similar lots.

New York Board of Trades Taxa
ton Committee, yesterday recon-
| mended broadening of the income
tax base to promote greater con-
sciousness about Government spend
ing"
TOO many people think they are
completely exempt from Federal
taxes" he said, although in fact
they pay such taxes concealed in
the cost of things they buy"
Mr.. Seidman also suggested that
a single tax be substituted for all
the present Federal corporate taxes.
At this point it appears that the
committee will recommend, with ad-
ministration approval, the repeal
of the undistributed profits levy and
notifications with regard to capital
gains and losses and with the off,
setting Of business losses against
gain
Judging by the statement of Sec
retary Morgenthau that the indi-
vidual surtaXes should be consid-
cred Jointly with the problem of
making taxable the income from fu-
ture issues of public securities, plus
the decision of the committee ma
jority to confine itself to cofpo-
rate levies, it appears that the COM
plants against the individual sur
tax rates will be filed for future
reference.
Extra Levy Likely.
AS for the capital stock and ex-
cess profits taxes, it is equally clear
that the committee majority feels
that their elimination would make
it necessary to impose an extra cor
porate income tax. Spokesman for
both the chamber and the N. A. M.
conceded that they would prefer
the capital stock and excess profits
levies to approximately a per cent
increase in the corporate income
rate.
That the present variable cor
| porate income tax rate, centering at
| 1872 per cent, may be discarded for
a fiat rate already seems certain.
Estimates of such a rate have
ranged from Is to % per cent, with
18 being the figure most often men
toned by congressional leaders.
Along with these several major
revisions, few more limited in
their applicability probably will be
recommended, among them a clari-
| flcation of the personal holding
company provisions as they apply to
gross income of insurance companies
a limited exemption to railroads
from tax liability involved in the
! purchase of their own securities,
and an easing. of present require
ments on attorneys to file monthly
returns in certain reorganization
proceedings.
Joint Body Endorsed.
Both the chamber and N. A. M.
witnesses particularly Endorsed the
suggestion of Secretary Morgen-
thau that Congress create a joint
appropriating and taxing committee,
to include membership of present
separate committees on these sub
jects, for the purpose of more close

TRAINMEN'S HEAD
ASKS LABOR UNITY

Cleveland (ILNS). - The Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen opened its
second quadrennial convention on May
s with plea from President A. F.
Whitney for unity among labor's
forces.
Whitney, addressing nearly 1000
railroad workers representing 975
lodges, and claimed 100000 members
in the United States, Canada and
Alaska, said unity of purpose and ac-
tion is needed to defeat labor's enc
mics so that workers can proceed to
a more equitable distribution of the
fruits of our toll"
The nations economic outlook is
''very uncertain Whitney said
"The failure of Congress to appro-
pirate sufficient funds to take care of
the needy unemployed will undoubt-
edly create more misery" he warned.
All convention sessions, lasting 25
days, will be secret except one when
Postmaster General Farley speaks.

Coal Negotiations Fail
For The Second Time

New York City (ILNS).-Coal me-
gotiations failed for the second time
when the joint conference sub-com-
mittee of operators and miners an
nounced on May a that it had been
unable to reach settlement. The
matter was reported back to the full
committee; which had already failed
to get an agreement.
Barring accidents, there are two
courses either one of which may be
followed. The federal government
may intervene with proposals that will
last while hearings are held before
some public commission. The 10000
coal miners outside the Appalachian
region may go on strike. Or one of
these procedures may start and the
other finish.
1t has been reported several times
that most coal operators outside the
Appalachian district are ready to sign
the agreement the miners ask.
