Nationals May Leave
Amsterdam, Nov. 10 (U.P0 $50
1t was learned reliably today that
United States and British Consular
officials have urged their nationals
to leave Holland unless they have
urgent reasons for remaining.
There are approximately 1000
Americans and 1900 Britons In Hol-
land who would be evacuated in
event of invasion of this country.
Consular officials of both coun-
tries, 1t was learned, were urging last
minute rush in event of emergency.
There should be voluntary with

cause of limited transportation

date danger Of German invasion.
However, all possible precautions
were taken against an attack on the
northern frontier, which is the most
vulnerable. There are some fears
that to avoid the strongly fortified
eastern frontier and the Mouse val
ley fortresses, the Germans might go
through Holland and try to cross
Belgium through the Limberg and
Brabant districts, as the easiest route
TO France.
Three Defense Systems
Since the northern frontier faces
friendly Holland, 1t Is weaker than
the eastern frontier, but 1t has three
systems Of defensive works: - A for
titled, mined and barbed-wire line
just beyond the Dutch border; ~
The Albert canal protective works
consisting of small concrete fortresses
and arrangements for flooding the
neighboring region which is lower
than the canal level; 81 A fortified
line along the Dyle river near Brus-
sells and Malines.
West of these defenses Is the
strongly fortified Antwerp region.
The eastern fortresses are fully
manned and Belgium has 100000
troops under arms.

 TONIGHT ON SCREEN

The -"Confessions of a Nazi Spy" ending at the Coliseum Thea tre tonight, tells the story, but be- yond the story lies a deeper and fuller menace. A fictional account, confessions of a Nazi Spy was inspired by revelations contained in he recent Nazi spy trials held in New York. Les Angeles and the Panama Canal Zone
 Lecn G. Turrou, former ace G. Man, who secured the conviction of a number of admitted Nazi spies, acted as technical adviser of the film. which lends some idea as to it's authenticity, despite the fact that the events are fictional
 A gripping, powerfully performed drama, Confessions of a NaZi Spy will bring home to the thousands who will jam theaters all over to see it, the grim realization that the menace is still here. It will bring home the appalling fact that a coun- try or countries supposedly on friendly terms with the United States have been and in all proba- bility still are carrying on subvers- i've espionage activities directly aim- ing at undermining the military and democratic institutions of the na- tiOn.

CAPITOL FILM TO HAVE FINAL
 SHOWING HERE
Only AnqeIs Have Wings Ends This Evening at

"Only Angels Have Wings" end- ing tonight at the Capitol Theatre, is set in a colorful South American village. where Grant is manager of a struggling little airplane trans port line. Mss Arthur, as a show girl. stops off in the village and be- comes enamoured with the reckless, cynical flier and his devil -may--care crew She decides to remain. A ma jor conflict develops-this, in addi- tion to the ever-recurrent battle of man against nature as the aviators take obsolete planes over mist-cov- cred, storm-filled mountain passes when Richard Barthelmess comes to work for Grant. Barthelmess is seen as a discredited aviator who once, during a test flight, had allowed his mechanic to fall to his death while he himself had "bailed out
 Grant is complete the daring pilot and, more, a representative of that breed of airmen whose rest lessness and cockiness have con- tributed so much to aviation. He brings to his role all the swagger- ing, heart warming adventurous ness that made his work in Gun ga Din" so memorable; all the care free, casual whimsy of The Awful Truth Miss Arthur, co-starred, is ideally seen in a role which de- mands that she be at once simple and sophisticated, reluctant and eager for romance.
 Barthelmess scores a brilliant triumph with his sympathetic in- depreciation of the renegade flier Mitchelfs performance as the avia- tor whose eyes are failing but who continues to take his ship up is one of the histrionic highlights of brilliantly acted film.
 In comparatively smaller roles, with each performance a shining vignette of perfection, are Miss Haywcrth, as Barthelmess wife: Ncah Beery Jr., Allyn Joslyn and John Carroll, as fliers; Sig Ruman, as the gentle hammered Dutchman who owns the airline; Victor Kilian, as an harassed radio opera tor, and Manuel Maciste, singer of native hongs which he himself wrote.

II agree with the idea as ex-
pressed in your editorial" Holmes
said, land am sending copies to Ed
Izac and Sheridan Downey urging
that they give the proposal every
thought"
First Hand Testimony
From two sources came first
hand testimony of the effect OF
the law which recognizes no diff
ference between employe participa-
ton in a corporation and stock
ownership by an outside investor.
One was Howard P. Meyer of the
Imperial Valley Hardware compa-
ny. a corporation which boasts
among its employees 40 stockholders.
TAe other was a successful business
man whose firm is not incorpor-
ated. He asked that his name be
withheld.
Il wanted TO make an outright
gift to several of my employees of
stock in my company" the latter
said. ITO do so I would have had
to incorporate. After a study OF
the double taxation that comes
with incorporation, however, I
found it impossible to carry the
burden. The loss isn't mine. I make
more money this way My employees,
however, are barred from partici-
pating in the earnings of the COM
pany they work for, and all because
of this crazy law
l.. v. Hardware System
Meyer, in a letter, expressed
agreement with the Post-Press edi-
torial. He said.
II was very much interested in
the editorial in the Imperial VAL
ley Press of April 18th, headed
Taxation That Kills Employe Ad-
vancement.
"As you probably know, our COM
pany has quite q distribution Of
stock among our employees. just
checked up and find that we have
forty stockholders with full time
employment. This is more than one
out of every three employees. Our
company has worked under this
policy for over 20 years.
Under the present income tax
laws, as you have pointed out in
your editorial, all of these employees
are taxed twice-in the first place
Imperial Valley press., 1939-04-16

through their partnership in the
company, and secondly, in their
personal income taxes, as, under
the present laws, no deduction is
made for dividends received from
corporations, which, of course, had
to be previously taxed or they
could not have paid dividend.
For your information, our COM
pany has a rather large revolving
fund which is used to finance
stock purchases. If an employe has
a deal for company stock our poll
cy is to loan the entire amount,
providing the price is not excessive,
this loan re-payable on a monthly
payment basis. Over the years,
some of our employees have accu-
mulated large savings in this man
ner.
1--WE appreciate your interest in
the subject, and hope that eventu-
ally this unfair double taxation
will be removed. I have personal
knowledge of several business en-
terprises which would like to in
corporate in order to make it pos
Slble for the employees to acquire
interest in the business. These peo-
Pile have delayed Incorporating
their businesses, to the detriment
of their employees who would other
wise have the opportunity to ac-
quire an interest"
Robert Hays Comments
Robert Hays, secretary manager
of the Ell Centre chamber of COM
merce, pointed out that interest
in the concern for which a man
works is greatly to be desired. A
method which in effect makes the
worker pay double tax on what
profits he receives from his in
vestment in the capital stock of
the company which employs him is
certainly not going to encourage
the worker to become a partner in
the business"
