NORFOLK. Va. Oct. 25.-George
Washington University's discouraged
gridmen today faced what might be
the schools most disastrous football
season in IL years as they sadly
reflected on last evenings crush
ing 48-0 defeat at the hands of
surprisingly powerful William and
Mary eleven.
In 1929 the year that Jim Pixie
took the helm on G. street, the Colo
mails won only one game. American
that beat them The current G. w.
crew now faces four more games,
three of them at home, and stands
a strong chance to lose every re-
manning contest.
What remained of the Colonial
morale after the Georgetown game
probably disappeared in the wake OF
a deluge of William and Mary
touchdowns The Indians. off to a
l4-0 start at the half, really turned
on the heat in the third period and
ran over four touchdowns. most Of
them on quick slants through the
battered George Washington line
Howard Leads Scoring.
In the last quarter the Indians
scored again after blocking one Of
Jim Graham's punts.
Jimmy Howard was William and
Marv's big scorer, with three touch
downs. although Stud Johnson, the
big ful,back, and Jackie Freeman.
the feet scatback, set up most OF
the scoring plays.
Howard's first touchdown was the
Indians opening score. 1t came on
1-yard plunge after three min
utes of the second quarter.
A few moments later, punt
bounced off Scott Gudmandson' S
knee and the Indians recovered on
the C W. 13 Jim Hickey soon piled
over from the courtyard stripe
The third-period deluge began
with Johnson's 5l-yard touchdown
drive through right tackle. then
Freeman reversed cleverly to Harlie
Masters, who scampered % yards
to score. The Colonials were really
fooled on that one.
Goes Around Right End.
Howard's next effort was a 46-
yard jaunt around right end and
then he quickly came back with an
other tally on 59-yard dash of
Graham's pass intended for Ziobro
The final score resulted from Red
Irwin's block of Grahams punt.
The only bright spots for the Colo
mails. playing their second South
ern Conference game, were Walt
Fedoras S 40-yard dash in the fourth
period and Babe Nugent's 55-yaro
punt return Both carried far into
William and Mary territory. But
the Indians halted each threat.

UNEMPLOYMENT CURE STILL NEEDED

The $44OOO OOO national defense program, which is expected reach its peak during the month has eased the pain of unemployment but won't within miles of curing it.
 That is the conclusion of the New York 'Herald after nationwide survey completed under the direction of its financial editor
 "It something of paradox the serad Tribune' said this week. hat persons employed today than before the countrys history and yet persons remain jobless and the number is increasing.
 This year the nations income expected reach $92 OOOOOOOOO and yet this unprecedented prosperity will be enough liquidate relief rolls."

situation. One tenant had his rent raised from $l7.00 to $22.OO within three months, an increase of over 37 percent. Another tenant had his rent increased from $16.00 to $2OOO a month, an increase of 25 per cent. It would be very easy for the writer to mention any number of similar cases.
 HOW TO GET RICH
 It has been called to my attention that certain woman has purchased as many as 125 houses in and nearby my neighborhood. She buys these houses from various banks. They are mainly two, three, four and six family houses. She places a down payment of approximately 10 per cent, then spends a few dollars in paint and wall paper and proceeds to raise the rents from $20O to 5000 a month. This woman gets back her investment within the first year and from then on makes a considerable profit at the expense of unfortunate tenants. If a depression comes she loses nothing, as the banks will be forced to take over the property.

those with the larger incomes, cor porations as well as individuals.
 The committee really pulled its punches" in writing the excess profits section of the act, leaving SO many loopholes and granting SO many ex- emptions that some corporations mak- ing enormous profits from defense contracts will escape without paying penny beyond normal taxes.
 The legislation does not require a corporation to figure excess profits taxes until its profit equals 8 per cent of its entire capitalization, or until they exceed the average profits of the best two years between 1886 and 1889, whichever is the larger sum.
 One example will show how the tax is a windfall for corporations now rolling in profits. If, say, the United States Steel Corporation earned an average profit of 4 per cent on its capitalization during the base period and increased the profit to 8 per cent in taxable year, it would pay only 10 per cent on the additional 4 per cent profit.
 Figured another way, if the steel company earned average profits of $7O,OOO,OO0 in the base period, and in- creased its profit to $140,000,000 in a taxable year, it would pay tax of 10 per cent on the last $70,0OO,0OO, on $,0O0,0O0, and retain $63,0O0,O0O for its stockholders. That does not look much like 'anti-war millionaire" leg islation.
 The Treasury filed vigorous Ob- jectiOns to this arrangement, con- tending it will enable corporations showing fantastic profit increases to escape.
 John L. Sullivan, assistant secre- tary of the Treasury, insisted the new provisions are only a slight improvement over the present law, which he said can be called an
The union times., 1941-07-12

excess profits tax ''only by cour- tesy."
 'The truth of the matter is,'' Sullivan said, ''that the law we call an excess profits tax does not tax excess profits at all.''
 That, precisely, is what LABOR asserted when the legislation was before Congress and repeated after it was enacted.
 Situation Unjustifiable
 This situation, Sullivan declared, is "unjustifable," and he. added:
 "When those earning modest wages and salaries are called on to pay two, three and four times as much as here tofore, on the same income, it is un- fair to permit our most successful corporations to earn excessive rates of return without subjecting them to special taxation"
 The committee also dealt most gen. erously with estate and gift taxes that fall in the higher brackets, while bearing down on small estates and gifts. On estates and gifts of from s, 5,OOO to $1O,0O0, the rate has been in- creased 200 per cent, while on estates and gifts of $1,0OO,OOO the increase is only l per cent. When estates and gifts get up around $4,5OO,OOO they do not pay more than under the present law.
 More Excise Levies
 As the bill now stands. it pro. poses to raise $1, 300, ,OOO, ,OOO from individual incomes, about a billion from corporations and $lOO,OOO.- 900 from estates and gifts. To meet Treasury requirements, it will be necessary to find additional reve- nue of about $1,OOO, ,OOO, ,OOO, and the committee plans to raise it through sharply-increased excise levies, which are in effect sales taxes that will be paid largely by ''little fellows" as Sullivan pointed out.

Legislation to raise $3,500,000, ,O0O in new revenue to help finance the defense program has practically been completed by the House Ways and Means Committee.
 While everybody who now pays income taxes will be called upon to pay more, the people of modest income are going to be hit the hardest. I'm the lower brackets the rates have been "jacked up" sew eral hundred per cent, and as they reach the higher brackets they taper off.
 People fortunate enough to have million-dollar incomes are going to be compelled to dig deeply into their jeans, but their new burden relatively is lighter than that of the man who earns only a few thous- and a year.
 The married man without de- pendents and with an income of $2,OOO is going to pay $38.5O in- stead of $ll, or an increase of about 25O per cent. For a $5,OOO income, the jump is from $llO to $3O8, an increase of about 200 per cent, and on a $1O,OOO income the hike is from $528 to $1,166, or more than 100 per cent.
 SINGLE MEN
 A single man with an income of $1,0O0 will pay $15.40 instead of $40, a jump of nearly 300 per cent. If his income is $2,OOO, he will pay $11O instead of $44, an increase of more than 150 per cent, and on an income of $2,500 the increase is from $63.8O to $159.50, or about 150 per cent.
 On $10O,000 income, the tax of a married man will be $52,738, com pared with the present tax of $42, ,o48, an increase of less than 25 per cent.

 10 to 40 PC. INCREASES
 We explained that in the large industrial cities there was a dire shortage of rents available for workers in the low income group and that rents were being raised from 10 to 40 per cent in these localities. Practically all of the objection came from Judiciary Committee members living in small rural areas where they ad. mitted that they were not af- fected by any raising of rents.
 The bill was only ''permissive legislation" It stated that if any local community was faced with a shortage of rents or if its citizens were being discrim- mated against by landlords. the community would have the pow CT to set up its own ''Fair Rent Board.

MORE PSYCHOLOGY

Going into a town in Okla homa and visiting the Labor Council and explaining my wish to organize the culinary workers once brought interesting results. One of the very active members of the Council gave me fine SUD- port. He told me to go and get a certain proprietor who ran one of the best places, and that he was the leader. If could get him the rest would be easy, otherwise I might as we'll not waste my time staying there. I visited the place, had a good meal, and of course tipped the waitress and left, did the same thing the next day and the next. The boss took cash and smiled and spoke to me. The result was what wanted.
 STARVING TO TALK
 I found him a very well educated man, and like many of such, starving for some one to talk to that could talk his language. We had after that, long discussions on about every sub ject and then of course we drifted to labor. He had the usual I went into detail with him and answered all his queries of why this was this and that and must have made a convert of him as he requested me to give him the first union card that was to be hung in that town. He asked the price of admission for his help and wrote me a check for the whole amount and took blanks that he had filled and his help all gladly came to the first meeting and were pleased. Of course 1t meant a little more money for them and better conditions of work. We had a good union in that town for a long time until some crackpot came in and as usual, broke up the local with foolish and ignorant assumption of power the union did not have.
 INTELLIGENT BOUNDS
 There are many other instances I ran into where the workers are ready to organize and then the work is much easier and the job is to keep the members within intelligent bounds.
 Of these I will write later.

If rents are raised above unreasonable levels then the city through its Board of Assessors should place a higher assessment on these properties. Regardless of legislation we can take cer- tain constructive steps that will alleviate this situation. Let the public know who is bleeding our people.
