SoIon Proposes
Deferred Taxes

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. CUP)-
Chairman Waiter F.. George, D., Ga,
of the senate finance committee
proposed today that taxpayers be
allowed to defer part of their taxes
until after the war through the
purchase of government bonds.
George said he intended to ask
the treasury to consider such a
plan in connection with the tax
bill it now is preparing to meet
President Roosevelt's budget call
ing for $4,000, 100000 in new leyies
during l943.
Chairman Robert l.. Doughton,
D, N. c., of the house ways and
means committee had another sug-
geStion for easing the impact OF
the new tax program on the average
taXpaTcr-a suggestion that state
and local governments cut their
expenses to the bone to allow re-
duction of their taxes.
In this great war crisis he said,
everyone in this nation. indiyid-
uals and government alike, must
pull his belt way in. Some states
nave sales taxes; some have in
come taxes. At this time some Of
these could be eliminated entirely;
onters can be drastically reduced
In the past the federal govern
ment has been most generous in
helping the states with their trou-
bles. Now it's only fair that the
states and local communities pitch
in and help the federal govern
ment.'
George described his bond buy
ing plan as a deferred deduction"
from net income. He outlined its
operation this way:

The bonus would be redeemable
in five equal annual installments

Bonuses Blocked

JERSEY CITY, April "A group
Of, stockholders failed yesterday in
an attempt to limit the bonuses Of
George Washington Hill, ST.. presi-
dent, and three vice presidents, at a
stormy annual meeting of American
Tobacco Co. shareholders.
BY vote OF 2,044,l19 shares
against 1l3,5oo, the stockholders re-
jected a resolution introduced by
John Gilbert, New York, which
would have limited the bonuses Of
Hill to 100000 annually and of the
vice presidents to Sc, 1000 annually.
The vice presidents were not iden-
titled.
Paul M. Hahn, a vice president
who presided At the meeting, said
Hill received $4,000 bonus last
year plus his regular salary of $780,
900 and vice presidents got $100, 1886
plus their regular salaries of $50, 1000.
In each case, Hahn told the meet
ing, large parts Of the salaries and
bonuses were returned to the COM
pany to satisfy judgment against
the oficeYs obtained in recent liti-
CATION brought by stockholders who
charged the bonuses were improper.
The executives were directed by a
New York court order to return $2,-
900 900 to the corporation after the
court found errors in computation,

was in small fractions. Prices were

panied by a little more activity.

The idea the market had gone
about far enough on the downside
seemed to have gained further con-
verts The averages Tuesday hit
new 4-year lows. In addition, there
was less nervousness over the war

hopes corporate taxes might not be
