 Washington, Nov. 3-(UP)-A group Of congressional Republicans is organizing today in an effort to read Wendell L. Wiilkie, last years presidential nominee, out Of the party.
 About half a dozen isolationist members of the house have taken the initiative but claim that ulti- mately they will have the support of 30 per cent of house Repuhli- cans.
 Among promoters of the anti Willkie movement, a. least, feeling is bitter. It is compo rable in inc tensity to the anger ln which Sen, Burton K. Wheeler, D., Mont, Sen Bennett Champ Clark, D., Mo, and

other one-time New Dealers have repudiated the leadership of Presi. dent Roosevelt on foreign policy. But administration policies continue to hold substantial majority Sup- port in congress.
 Over the weekend in Indiana, one Indiana senator and four Re- publican Indiana congressman fired the first formal anti-Willkie shot by pledging opposition to the adminis- tration's effort Ito involve this country in an undeciared war" and by seeking to make the Republican party the standard bearer Of peace.
 This was 6 significant anti-Wiil- kIe move as one of the slgners of the joint pledge was Rep. Charles A. Halleck who nominated Willkie at

BELL syndieate-wNu Service,

WASHINGTON Congress is ex-
pected to vote the Joint return"
provision into the new tax law. This
means that after this husbands and
wives will no longer be permitted
to submit separate returns. but
MUST file one for both of them.
Most people seem to think that
this is important only to California
and the other states that have the
community property law This is
the law that assumes a wife owns
half of her husbands income.
II has been a sore point with the
tax experts in the treasury depart
ment and on Capitol Hill for years
that married couples with large in
comes in these states-particularly
California because there are so
many big incomes in the movie col
ony--Were getting away with this.
But the states involved were very
important. politically, and nothing
ever has been done about it.
Actually. the change in the law
will not hurt the small taxpayer. 1t
will hurt only the big ones. Under
the old law. the married man got an
exemption OF $4,000. whereas if he
and his wife filed separate returns
each got only $1,000. So for the
small income family it was obvious
ly better to file a joint return. The
couple had $500 more exemption.
High Brackets D .Hcrent
But this ceased to be true the
moment the income reached the
higher brackets. Then by splitting
the income somewhere nearly in two
equal parts. neither part reached
brackets as high as the joint in
come for both would have Hence,
the RATE Of tax on the whole OF
the two incomes of the husband and
wife would average considerably
less.
What has not been generally APP
preciated, even in congress, was
that ii was not just the movie stars
in Hollywood who were benefitting
by this separate return racket

= roInIng new for Nicholson to at
tack Hoover. II was the campaign
conducted by Nicholson. under the
auspices of John j. Raskob and Jou-
EFT Shuuse, which is generally ac-
credited with doing more than any
other two or three things to make
Hoover so easy TO beat in 1882
Il Is oily since the Supreme court

More IN sorrow than in anger, doubt

In 1890. Nicholson recalls. Vince
Ter. after long tour of Russia,
wrote a series of articles which were
later reprinted in the Congressional
Record. He quotes this conclusion"
by the Montana senator at that
time:
Russia for Is years has main
tanned stable government-much
more stable than have most of the
South American and Latin countries.
They have maintained order within

law and practice they are entitled

Nicholson thought that was fine.
then. Apparently he still does though
he does not say much about that any
more. He now takes the more prac-
tical ground.
Practical Aspect
Perhaps in view of the potentiali-
ties of the Russo-German war" he
writes, sthe importance of material
aid to the Soviet outfit will be ap-
preciated. 1t amounts to a great
deal more than our distaste for Boil
shevism, or Bolshevik habits, Gus
toms or excesses-which have no
more to do with what the defense
of America demands, than Joe Sta
Inns pipe or complexion.
Actually, President Roosevelt has
been accused often OF leaning too
much to the ideals Of the Soviet
Republic. And it has not been so
many years since Wheeler was &C.
cused of being a Communist at
heart, if not in fact.
But there is no doubt in the minds
of some of the severest critics OF
this alleged excessive sympathy
with the Communists on the part
OF the administrator that we should
not slap down anyone who is fighting
on what is actually OUR side in
this war

PROPER RECORDS
OF FARM OFTEN
BRING RETURNS
FARM FAMILY NEAR BILLINGS
KNOWS WHERE THEY STAND
FINANCIALLY

Some people say that keeping farm
and home account records is too much
work." but Mr.. and Mrs. Sol KobeH
Of Billings, Mont, have q different
idea. Instead Of working for the rec
ords. they make the records work for
them.
Records tell them how much it costs
to raise their crops: how much 1t costs
to run their home. Using their records,
they keep one eye on income, one eye
on outgo. They never let outgo get
ahead. The result is that they have
first class credit records, too. They
buy their credit as they buy their
other needs, on the basis Of service,
quality and price. The Billings Ma
tional Farm Loan association office
handles their Land Bank commissioner
loan which is helping the Kobers buy
their farm: the Midland Production
Credit association is their source OF
short term credit.
Many Yellowstone county families
feel about records as the Kobers do,
because family financial planning for
some time has been one Of the prin-
cipal projects of Mrs. Doris Anderson,
county home demonstration agent. She
has gone through the county holding
meetings on the use OF long and short
term credit; ON the keeping Of home
accounts, and on the outlook for the
prices Of farm products and farm
necessities. She has made available to
the women In the county information
