The U-Turn Menace

THE menace of U-turns emphasized again this
week when two deaths within "A hours resulted from
this unnecessary traffic hazard
Nor is the danger confined to automobiles
One victim a teenage schooboy who was hurled
from the handebars of a bicycle which he riding
when the cyclist attempted Uturn in front of truck
The second victim a 62-year-old motorist who
swung his car around intersection and colided
head-on with another machine.
The obvious way to prevent such tragedies is to
abolish U-turns
How many deaths must result before traffic author
tiles act?

No loyal citizen could refuse TO

In final analysis, these in

some of the increased income
we have received because of the
defense program. In reality. we
are not making any sacrifice
whatsoever.
Another point in favor of the
increased taxes is that this pro-

IVES, yes. gentlemen, we knew
- Andy Horns.

l. Andy Horns.
The fact that we have not
mentioned it in our essays on
the old-time free lunch and
which h 5 developed great
peeviShneSs- among many of our
New York readers, was not due
10 ignorance of the establish
ment. We simply had not got
ten around TO the big city as a
contender in the free lunch de-
partment.
Andy Horns, as we are re-
minded by Lieut.. Martin Regan
of the Honor Legion of the New
York police department, and
quite a number of others, was
on Park Row west of the
Brooklyn Bridge and was much
patronized by the newspaper
fraternity. 1t was still flourish
ing when we arrived in New
York, and Eddie Curley the turf
expert, led US there by the
hand.
IT had a free lunch counter
as long as the bar and il seemed
10 us the bar was half block
long. With nickel glass Of
beer you got a platter Of ham.
bologna. cheese. pigs feet, boiled
eggs and potato salad and could
pick at the displays OF onions,
pickles and radishes. if you de-
sired.
Lieutenant Regain says he was
a glass worker before he joined
the cops in 1896 and travelled
from coast TO coast but that
never anywhere did he see a
free lunch offering like Andy
Horns.
LIS testimony is corroborated
IL by others, though Jack
Lawlor, writing from San Fran
cisco, and giving that city a
bow, thinks the greatest OF all
free lunches IN New York was
put out by a lager-ale house on
South street, though he goes
back a long time for that one.
He says you got complete
corned beef and cabbage dinner
with every five cents worth Of
lager ale, with cheese and pick
les and bologna on the side.
Moreover, Lawlor says you could
have a meal with every schooner
if you could 90 that far.
II is his opinion that the next
most elaborate free lunch in the
United States was served at
JelIison's under the old Morning
Call at Third and Market in
San Francisco. but that was a
10-cent beer spot and in any
event Lawlor hands the all
around free lunch honors TO New
York.
He says he speaks out Of an
experience OF years Of free
lunching from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. He rates San Fran
cisco second TO New York. st.
Louis and Milwaukee a tie for
third place and Jersey City
fourth.

Lockheed-Vega and other Southern
California aircraft firms recently
subscribed to the 10-cent increase
and that the new scale had the
Endorsement of the Mediation Board.
The machiniStS asked ConSoli-
dated for an increase in the mini
mum pay range from the present
55-65 cent hourly scale to COTS
cents. Beginners would receive an
automatic 5 cents an hour increase
every four weeks to top minimum
of rs cents after IL full weeks of
service.
Consolidated agreed to this pro-
posal, but rejected the demand for
10-cent-an-hour increase for all
workers not affected by the boost in
minimum pay for beginners. The
firm offered a 5-cent-an-hour in
crease, instead.
Statistics on Earnings.
inexperienced beginners now re-
ceive SIS cents an hour, or $30.25 a
week on the present 50-hour week,
including 10 hours overtime pay.
In the new COTS cent schedule, ac-
ceptable to both the company and
union, apprentices would receive $33
a week when hired, and $4125 a
week in three months.
A company spokesman said the
average earnings of hourly-paid
workers was II cents for 40 hours,
however, or $1,000, plus time and
one-half for 10 hours overtime, or
a total weekly salary of $42.35. The
spokesman said many employees
worked more than so hours and that
the average weekly pay for hourly
workers probably was about $45,
and under the new scale agreed to
would increase to approximately $50.
OF the company's $4,000 employees,
23,300 are hourly paid.
Official sources estimated that the
wages sought, on present work
schedules, would mean an increase
of $1.10 a day for each worker, and
an annual increase of more than
100000 in the company's pay roll.

Dispute Over Right
To Spend Cash May
Halt Movie Inquiry
Senator Lucas Unwilling
To Approve Expenses
Of Clark Committee
By the Associated Press.

os lllt hooOSAotcd Acoo'
A dispute over how much a Senate
committee may spend on an un-
authorized investigation threatens
to- put the brakes on the inquiry
into charges of war propaganda and
monopoly in the motion picture
industry.
Senator Lucas, Democrat, of
Illinois, who handles the Senate's
own purse-string as chairman of
the Audit and Control Committee,
said he would not approve any ex-
penditures for the movie inquiry
until 1 am informed how long this
is going to run and how much will
be spent"
Furthermore, he said he might
ask the Senate to limit to $3.50 or
$3.50 the sum which may be spent
on an investigation not approved
by the Senate itself.
Such Senate decision might
abruptly halt the movie investiga-
ton since its cost for expenses of
witnesses and keeping a record Of
its hearings presumably have al
ready passed $3.50.
Considering Resolution.
Technically, the Interstate Com
merce Subcommittee conducting the
inquiry is merely considering
resolution, introduced by Senators
Clark, Democrat, of Missouri, and
Nye, Republican. of North Dakota,
proposing an investigation.
But its hearings, to be resumed
Tuesday, have developed into full
fledged investigation.
In the past, Senate committees
frequently have conducted long and
expensive hearings on legislative
proposals, and the costs always have
been paid without question.
In view Of these precedents, Sen
ator Clark of Idaho, chairman of
the Interstate Commerce Subcom-
mittee, insisted that his group had
ample authority to continue its
hearings and, in fact, was obligated
to do so.
Different Situation.

his mind there was a vast differ
ence between lengthy hearings BY
Senate committee or subcommit-
tee on a proposal for definite legis-
lation and a mere proposal that
an investigation be conducted into
this or that"
Under Senator Clark's view. Sen
ator Lucas said, a subcommittee of
two or three Senators could pro-
long hearings and spend $1,000 or
$40 1000 or several times that much
just on fees for reporting and wit
nesses."
Limiting such costs to $3.50 or
$3.50, he said, would force any Sem
ate committee to win express SEN
ate approval before spending more
on an inquiry or hearing.

Taxes

NCOIlIIIlUCu I'll OIIl L II OF d5C'J
creased gift taxes go into effect
January l.
Of the total revenue provided IN
the measure, Congressional experts
estimated that S1,144,6 100000 would
come from individuals; 1882, 100000
from corporations; Sl79,900.000 from
capital stock, estate and gift taxes,
and S846, 100000 from excise and
miscellaneous taxes.
In the corporation tax structure,
the measure provides new surtaXes
of 6 per cent on net income up to
5000 and 7 per cent on net income
above that amount. 1t also increases
present excess profits taxes 10 per
cent in each bracket.
The legislation carries a provision
creating special 14-man committee
charged with finding methods of
cutting down non-defense eXpendi-
lures. The group will be composed
of the Secretary of the Treasury,
the Budget Director and three men
each from the Senate and House
Appropriations Committees and the
Senate and House Taxing Com
mittees.
Virtually all of the miscellaneous
or nuisance" taxes will be collected
from the manufacturers of the
various articles. Exceptions are the
10 per cent levies on jewelry and
furs, which will be collected from
retailers and presumably will be
added directly to the retail price.
The per cent transportation tax
will be added at ticket windows to
fares for train, plane, bus and boat
travel.
