NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-Manned
by crews recruited by the Maritime
Commission, two Alcoa Steamship
Co. freighters sailed today for Ber-
muda and the West Indies with
supplies for United States bases
shortly after two seamen's unions
protested TO President Roosevelt
against the commissions action.
In telegram to the President, the
unions denounced what they called
the commissions high handed
methods depriving the seamen of
collective-bargaining rights
The Alcoa Banner pulled away
from Weehawken. N. j., in midafter-
noon en- route for Trinidad and
other West Indies ports. Several
hours later the Alcoa Trader
steamed toward Bermuda They
are the first to sail of three Alcoa
vessels seized by the Government
because of seamen's strike which
has tied up 16 ships in six ports.
Third Ship Will Sail
Capt. Granville Conway, the COM
missions district manager, directed
the signing of crew for the Ban
ner and Trader. He said the Alcoa
Scout, which was seized with the
other two Thursday after the Sea-
farer's International Union "a. F.
L. refused to arbitrate bonus de-
mands, would sail about the middle
Of the coming week when a crew
has been hired.
Meanwhile. pickets marched in
front of the district Offices of the
commission, and telegram was sent
to the President by John Hawk, sec
retary- treasurer of the S. I. u. stat-
ing that the Maritime Commission,
according to reliable information
reaching us. has ordered ship owners
not to negotiate with Seafarers
Union for bonus"
The telegram asserted that ship
owners and the union had not re-
fused to negotiate for a peaceful
settlement"
Investigation Demanded.
Mr.. Hawk and Morris Weisberger,
| business agent of the Sailors Union
Of the Pacific. West Coast affiliate
Of the S. l. u, joined in a statement
accusing the commission of attempts
| ing Ito break up their unions. They
demanded that President Roosevelt
order an investigation
The commission charged yesterday
( in Washington that the S. !. u had
violated its contract with the Alcoa
line by striking before the contract
expired on September 80. The walk
out was launched last Saturday.
The number of ships tied up rose
to Is when crewmen of the Alcoa
liner Acadia walked off their vessel
on its arrival from Bermuda. and
the crew of the freighter Oregon,
owned by the Pacific e. Atlantic
Steamship Co., also went on strike
when the ship docked in Brooklyn.
OF the ships involved thus far,
seven in New York Harbor, one in
Boston and four in gulf ports were
struck by the S. I. u. and the four
others. also in New York. were struck
by the Pacific Coast union.

Aqree 10 Send Aid
To Soviet al Once
Hurrimon Ends ToIks
In London, Prepares
To Go to Moscow
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, Sept. 20.-W. Averell
Hartman, head of the United States
mission to Moscow, wound up his
London conferences today making
ready to hasten to the Soviet capi-
tai to join in British-American ar
rangements to stiffen Russian re-
sistance in the face of terrific Ger
man onslaughts.
A qualified source declared Rus
sias situation in the Ukraine was
more precarious than ever in the
face of German claims of juncture
of German columns behind Kiev,
capture of Poltava far to the south
east of Kiev and a drive across the
Perekop Peninsula to isolate Crimea.
Should Germans succeed in the
maneuver they are apparently at
tempting, this source said, they
would virtually shut the door against
entry of the United States and
British arms through the Persian
Gulf and Iran.
Kharkov, Rostov and the rich
Donets coal valley also would be
exposed to the next German pincer
thrust, it was added, and the Ger
mans would be in a position to cover
and support a new drive along the
north shore of the Black Sea.
Doubt Encirclement.
Doubt was expressed, however,
that the Germans had completed
the encirclement move reported east
of Kiev and authoritative sources
secuted Berlin claims that four Rus
sian armies were in the process Of
annihilation within the Kiev circle.
Declaring "the British people have
q much better realization of the
gravity of the Russian situation
than do the people of America" T"
Mr. Hartman said the United States
and British missions to Moscow al
ready had reached an agreement on
immediate material aid to Russia.
He will follow Lord Beaverbrook,
head of the British mission, to Mos
cow as soon as possible to continue
their planning there on replenish-
ing of Russian supplies.
Inc TWO mlSSlOIlS were agreed, MI
Hartman said, that the flow of
guns, tanks, planes and raw mate
rials to Russia should be limited
only by the physical problems Of
transportation. He intimated he
shared increasing British concern
over the gravity of Soviet losses of
material.
The British are repeatedly en-
phasizing that unless production is
maintained and supplies sped to
Russia Hitler may achieve another

Bulgaria Reported
Deciding 10 Enter
War on Axis Side
State Of Emergency in
Nation Declared,
London Hears
Rv the Associated Press.

! BY the Associated Press.
| LONDON, Sept. 20.-The diplo-
matte correspondent of the Sunday
Dispatch today said King Boris of
Bulgaria has decided to bring his
country into the war on the side OF
the Axis.
British news dispatches from
Turkey said the Bulgarian radio
announced the declaration of a
state of emergency in the Balkan
kingdom.
A Bulgarian police statement, re-
! layed from Turkey, said number OF
Russian parachutists and "other
persons who had succeeded in reach
ing Bulgarian soil" had been ar
rested.
Four Inducements
The Sunday Dispatch's corre-
spondent said among the induce
mentS which won King Boris over
were:
/. Naval command of the Black
Sea.
2. Granting to Bulgaria a pro
tectorate' over the Crimea, Soviet
territory which juts into the Black
Sea and which has been reported
cut off from the mainland by Ger
man armies.
8. A trading and transport mo-
noply in the Black Sea.
4. In event Turkey opposes Ger
many's plans, Germany and Bull
garia would establish joint pro-
tectorate over the Caucasus with
Bulgaria given part of the admin
istration of the Baku oil fields.
Bulgaria also would get pro-
tectorate over Thrace-the Greek
and Turkish lands at the southern
end of the Balkan peninsula.
100000 Men in Army.
Military sources put Bulgaria s
total war strength at 100000 men
in the army. The Bulgarian Navy
and air force are virtually nom
existent, having been forbidden by
the World War Treaty of Neuilly,
whose restrictions were only lifted
by the Treaty of Salonika signed
with the Balkan entente powers in
1898.
Until 1888 Bulgaria was permitted
to have an army of only 10000 men,
all volunteers. Since May, 1940 mil
itary service has been compulsory
for men between the ages of II and
65 who were eligible for two years
of service.
Bulgaria was reported to have had
100000 men under arms at the
beginning of the year, but later
demobilized some to harvest crops.
Partial mobiliza ton was ordered
September Is, with the calling up
of the class of 1921 and part of the
classes of 1922 and 1923.
TWenty-seven high-ranking off,
GERS were retired last December for
desiring to enter the war on the
side of Germany.
Premier Bogdan Filoff issued a
special statement calling on all Of
ficials to report any breach of dis
cipline," a Reuters dispatch describ-
ing an Ankara broadcast reported.
Reason Not Clear.
Although the reasons for the
emergency decree were not immedi-
ately clear, it was recalled that re-
ports received in Turkey recently
have indicated extensive military
preparations were under way in the
Balkan kingdom.
Russia has accused the Bulgarian
government of permitting its terri
tory to be turned into base of mill
tary operations against the Soviet
and the Bulgarians are reported to
have modified several classes.

garia would adhere strictly to her

With President RooSevelts sig
nature, the 1888 100000 revenue
bill became law yesterday and the
Federal tax load mounted to record
breaking proportions.
The Chief Executive signed the
legislation at his Hyde Park home,
where he had taken it for a study
of its provisions. Both Senate and
House approved it earlier last week
and sent it to the White House.
Existing taxes and the new levies
are expected to bring in between
SIS, ,000, 100000 and $4,000, ,000, 900
next year. but even this amount will
fall far short of meeting Secretary
of the Treasury Morgenthau's rec
ommendation that Government
spending be financed two-thirds
from taxes and one-third from bor-
rowing.
More Taxes in Prospect.
Congressional tax authorities, say
ing additional revenue legislation
was Sn prospect, forecast that the
present tax structure. plus the new
act, would raise only about half of
next years expenditures which are
expected to run around $32, ,000,-
00O. 900.
The new law which started its
course through Congress five
months ago, will bring an estimated
100000 additional persons under
the income tax structure by lower
ing present income exemptions from
81 900 to $500 for married persons
and from $500 to $3.50 for single per-
sons. This provision is estimated
to raise s3O3,0O0,O00 of which s49,-
100000 will be paid by new tax
payers. The remainder will come
from individuals already paying in
come taxes.
In addition to the income tax,
citizens will feel the pinch of the
new act in numerous other ways.
Starting next February, for instance.
an estimated 100000 motorists will
pay a S. annual use tax on their
vehicles. Starting october /, local
telephone bills will be taxed 6 per
cent and a score of so-called "nui-
sance" taxes will go into effect.
The latter include 10 per cent
levies on everything from refrigera-
tors to luggage; from jewelry to
business machines, from optical
equipment to sporting goods.
New Transportation Levy.
In addition, there is 5 per cent
transportation tax on tickets costing
more than 35 cents. That will be eff
fective October 10.
The individual and corporation in
come taxes will be effective on this
years income; higher estate levies
are effective Immediately, and in
