he said:
Il have no doubt if it. It's thing
you must do"
Among the 33 passengers were
1t. Comdr Paul Phil, brother-in-
law of Wendell l.. Willkie, and Pierre
Claudel, son of the former French
Ambassador to Washington.
Comdr. Phil, who spent the last
81 months as the assistant naval
attache for air in the United States
Embassy at Berlin. declined to COM
ment on his assignment, beyond
saying that he had been in Finland
during the war there. He said he
would go directly TO Washington.
Claudel. a on-commissioned Of
ficer in the 9th French Army. said
he had been captured by German
forces two days after the armistice
at Maginot Line sector and held in
a prison camp until January. Then
he was freed because of services as

campaign. and the personalities OF
only Sc per cent of the eligible voters
of the country turned out.
Answering the argument that
Washington does not need national
representation because it consists
primarily of Government employees
with voting status in the States, Mr..
Lesh gave figures to show that, while
Government personnel has increased
81 per cent since 1880, the Metropoli-
tan Area of nearby Maryland and
Virginia has grown in population by
81 per cent. and that many of the
additional Federal workers are re-
siding in those States, where they
may vote if they desire.
In further refutation of the claim
that most District residents can vote
elsewhere. Mr.. Lesh gave figures to
show that even If the number of
absentee voters here is placed at
the high level of l25. 5.00O Washington
would have had 340,O52 voteless
adults last November, or more than
IL of the States which have two
Senators each and Representatives
in proportion to population. These
figures are shown in detail in an
accompanying table,
SCOTS at Bloc Fears.
When subcommittee members in
quired whether the colored popula-
ton or the Government employe
population might vote as blocs if
Washington had suffrage. Mr.. Lesh
said that was no more of an argu-
ment against voting here than 1t
would be in any other place. He
insisted neither group would vote
as bloc, and added:
IF we run the risk of either a
colored bloc, or Government bloc,
then other voting districts of the
country run the same risk of tex
tile mill bloc or some other bloc"
Mr.. Lesh praised Government en-
ployes as a hard-working group

from the excess profits tax
The two income tax plans COM
pared:
Eccles: Decrease expemption for
married couples and dependents, but
not the $500 allowance for single
persons. Continue the present per
cent normal income tax. Levy sur
taxes, starting at 4 per cent on the
first dollar of taxable income. Dis
penSe with the 10 per cent defense
supertaX, which boosts the combined
total of normal and surtaxes by one
tenth.
Treasury: Continue all present
exemptions and the per cent nor
NAL tax. Start surtaxes on first
dollar of taxible income with an ini-
tial rate of II per cent. Continue
the 10 per cent defense supertax.
Eccles Fears Sales Tax.
Thus a childless married couple
with $4,000 net income would pay
s32 under the Eccles plan. Such a
couple pays no income tax now
and would pay nothing under the
Treasury recommendations.
Other comparisons for such
couples: $4,000 net income-Sl1 now,
$40 Eccles, $72 Treasury; $1,000
Sl10 now, 1910 Eccles, S506 Treasury.
Mr.. Henderson said the Govern
ment should not go piddling
around with levies on goods and
services for mass consumption and
on so-called luxury items which are
non-competitive with the making
of munitions.
