Ten economists would require
two weeks to work out what this
arbitrary price fixing measure
might mean, and then they
probably would be wrong.
Roughly, however, the downtown
farm economists figure it would
bring an 80 per cent increase in
prices, which would certainly
satisfy the farmers-that is, If
the consumers did not revolt.
The bill says prices should be
fixed on this basis: Cd BY CIV

CONSENSUS of inner opinion
" seems to be that Argentina
dominated the conference and
the U. s. lost some face. The
loss may not have been expen-
Sive, but many Of our men can
now see their original mistake
was their failure to recognize
the power of Argentina from the
beginning.
No confession is needed to sub

Representative Kennedy, who
knows the District tax situation
because of his experience with the
local tax law two years ago, ex-
pressed his disapproval of the
feature of the proposed sales tax
by which purchases made outside
of the District, in excess Of $25 a

Kennedy explained that mer

NO WAY TO CHECK

Because there would be diff
Guilty in checking UP officially on
purchases made outside Of the Dis

the Joint Congressional Commit

went to Congress Monday without
the approval of the Congressional
group.
In it are recommendations for

under which a 2 per cent sales
tax, with certain exemptions, and
a tax income in excess Of $14,0 900
