rector Of social agencies, today ex'
pressed most sincere appreciation
OF the splendid response received
from the plea for assistance in car
ing for unfortunate children in the
vicinity of the bomber plant.
Cash contributions today amount
ed TO nearly the entire amount
asked and one Daily Press reader
called from Detroit TO offer a check
for $50 which will be used on an
other project in the community.
1t is explained that this call
for assistance in no way reflects
upon the old residents there.
Neither does 1t reflect any discredit
upon the new residents. The appeal
was to meet temporary condition.
Local residents have responded
most commercially and the Daily
Press Is grateful TO all who have
called in to help. As other contribu-
tions come to hand they will be
turned over TO social agencies for
proper use.

State Opposes
Tax Exemption

Lansing, Mar. f0--AP--Governor
Van Wagner called on Michigan's
members OF Congress Monday tn
oppose the Cochrane tax exemption
bill, declaring the measure would
constitute "a serious encroachment
on state rights.
The bill would relieve from all
state and local ad yslorem taxes
properties constructed with federal
aid. The governor said this meant.
that local governments would lose
needed revenues because they
could not impose real and personal
property taxes against housing
projects, war production factories
and installations IN which the fed
eral government participated hnan-
cially.
Industrial centers such as De-
troit. he said In his TELEGRAM to
Michigan senators and representa-
tiyes, ARE already suffering from
reduced taxes on imperative auto
mobile plants" adding that the
proposed exemption would "aggrs-
yste an already serious situation"
The telegram said the legislation
was needless" because the sales
and use taxes are not imposed on
sales to the federal government and
its instrumentalities. Contractors,
he said. well could allow the gov
eminent to buy materials for con-
struction projects related TO the
war, 10 meet objections that the
sales and use taxes would swell
the cost OF war construction.

genthau's new tax program became
so widespread today that members
hogan 10 predict that mis- goal Of
$3.50, 100000 in new revenue would
not be achieved.
They said that no one could yet

ing more than $4,000, 100000 in
greatly-increased individual and
corporation taxes, but they said
clear-cut opposition had developed
TO less important suggestions.
Hearings on the program continu.
ed today.
Apparently there had been a con-
siderable change OF heart since the
program was first presented, for
then individual members OF the
committee indicated generally
favorable attitude toward the
broad principles OF the Treasury's
proposals.
II was learned, however, that
President Roosevelt has been adj
vised that overwhelming opposition
already had developed to Morgen-
thau's renewed request that mar.
ried persons be compelled to file
joint income tax returns and that
Congress end the practice OF per-
hitting oil well operators to de-
duct up to 27h per cent OF their
income annually as depletion al
lowance".
Morgenthau told the committee
those two changes would yield
$3.50, 100000 in new revenue.
Two members said privately
that preliminary indications were
that this cutting away" would
lead TO elimination of still other
Treasury recommendations with
the result that the estimated yield
Of the new tax bill would be re-
duced sharply from original
guesses.
Unless we 90 to a sales tax, the
yield will not be anything like
S7.61O,000,0oO," one of them pre-
dicted.
Treasury experts have said that
a five per cent manufacturers sales
tax covering everything would
raise about $1,000, 900 900, but If
such things as food, clothing,
medicine, fuel and state and fed
eral purchases we're exempted the
yield would drop to $153, 100000.
