Treasury Proposal Unfoir,

By the ASsocia ted Press.

By the AS9Oclabed FIeSS.
A Treasury suggestion for elimi-
nation of the present tax exemp-
tionS on many Federal, State ard
municipal bonds aroused strong op.
position in Congress today
In search of the 50 .000, 900 900 In
new revenues which President
Roosevelt's budget message called
for, Treasury experts were reported
to have told congressional leaders
at q conference recently that from
$500 900 900 to S400, 900 900 could be
added to annual receipts by making
all Government bonds subject TO
immediate taxation, regardless Of
their date of issue.
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio.
Q member Of the Senate Finance
Committee, said he had heard Of
this proposal and felt that there
was such strong opposition to it
within the committee that it was
unlikely ever to win approval.
Il don't see how 1t could be DONE"
he told reporters. 1T certainly
would be unfair to the persons who
had purchased the bonds In good
faith, believing that they were tax
exempt. OF course, if the Treasury
wanted to make future issues Of
bonds taxable that could be done,
but 1t wouldn't raise very much
money for the next three or four
years"
As Q counter suggestion to this
Treasury plan, some congressional
quarters mentioned the possible i'm
position Of a gross income tax.

BY IRA WOLFERT,

Correspondent Of The Star ana MAMA
NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Returning
from St. Pierre via Montreal, your
correspondent picked up the missing
pieces of the international puzzle
over both the Free French occupa-
ton Of the Vichy-held islands and
the official United States reaction
to it and is now able to put together
q reasonably clarifying picture Of
these quite complicated events.
A substantial part OF the story was
learned from the Free French, with
whom this correspondent lived In
Halifax, on the North Atlantic and
on the islands themselves. Your
correspondent was prevented from
including It in his dispatches from
st. Pierre because the Free French
were. and no doubt still are, in
tensely anxious to avoid stirring up
the United States State Department
any more than necessary with
charges, countercharges and bad
tempered harangues.
The story is being told now 1n-
tireW on your correspondents re-
sponsibility-mostly because Of the
light 1t throws on the Free French
and the Vichy French and on tne
State Department. 1t IS believed
that the facts, as set down here, will
lead readers to conclude that the
State Department has not earned all
the black words hurled at it over its
attitude In this affair.
The st. Pierre affair began as an
uncomplicated act Of justice in
which democratic-minded French
men were to be freed from a dicta-
torship 1t was obvious they hated.
But the complications grew in the
space of hours until, in the end, the
fate OF the Vichy-held fleet, As well
as the fate of all the stubborn and
desperate men gathered together to
fight for Free France, trembled in
the balance and the world was pre-

Seizure Of St. Pierre by Free Frenchmen
Started Out as Civilian Enterprise

it could do under the circumstances
and hastened precipitously into ne
gotiations with the United States
for an agreement on its Western
Hemisphere territories which would
make everybody happy but the Free
French. The agreement was to
make the United States happy by
permitting 1t to take measures to
neutralize the territories as far as
active collaboration with the Axis
was concerned. The agreement was
to make Vichy happy by allowing 1t
to retain sovereignty over its posses
sions and thus save its prestige be-
fore the people 1t governs.
Whether the State Department
was aware. at the time it made the
deal with Vichy, Of the little civilian
enterprise brewing in Canada to
force plebiscite in St. Pierre is not
known definitely. Some of those
concerned in the affair believe 1t is
doubtful Washington knew, while
others with equal access to the in
side story from the French side Of
1t say the United States must have
known, since Great Britain knew of
1t. What Is known fairly definitely
is that the Free French had not yet
ofIicially informed the United States
of the coup they were planning to
launch.
Those among the Free French
authorities who declare the United
states knew OF the enterprise say,
too, the whole deal with Vichy was
inspired from the democratic side
by Undersecretary Of State Sumner
Welles and Lord Halifax. British
Ambassador tn the United States.
They speak in 'harsh tones OF these
men. describing them As brothers
under the umbrella" meaning that.
despite all the world has learned
about attempts to appease the Axis,
these men are still appeasement-
minded.
The state Department has not yet
disclosed its side of the story and,
no doubt. will not until the final fate
Of Vichy and the powerful fleet it
holds in its power have been decided
"a matter for this spring, some be-
lieve. But the game the United
States has been playing with Vichy
and Vichy has been playing with the
United States is not believed to be
so much q matter Of appeasement
Of or buying OF Vichy as 1t is an
attempt to slow up the process of
collaboration between Vichy and the
Axis.

sented with the tragic spectacle Of
democratic Allies taking their at
tention from. q ufe-and-death strug-
gle with the Axis to brawl bruisingly
among themselves.
The st. Pierre affair began as q
civilian enterprise. The Vichy-ap-
pointed governor of the islands,
Baron G. de Bournat, had squelched
an attempt ,y the islanders to stage
a plebiscite IN which the inhabitants
could decide whether to remain with
Vichy or lire up with Free France
and the Allies. Some st. Pierre bus
inessmen and Frenchmen resident In
Canada, whose names 1t Is deemed
advisable to withhold at present, re-
fused to be squefched and invited
Free French support In an attempt
to force the plebiscite.
The Free French were glad to
oblige. An sttempt was scheduled to
be made last August. This was can
celed at the last moment. But the
interested civilians kept pressing the
matter and early in December re-
ceived the so-ahead signal.
At the time, Vice Admiral Emile
Muselier, head of the Free French
naval forces, and his chief of staf1
were In Carada engaged in a num-
Der Of Free French missions. He
supervised the arrangements for the
st. Pierre affair, but was not sched-
uled to accompany the expedition
The expedition was to be led by
civilians.
However, Vichy agents were &C
tive. Whether they had access to
secret information or simply made
shrewd guess has not yet been
ascertained At any rate, they seem
10 have capled Vichy that Admiral
Muselier was preparing to lead q
Free FTenc1 naval force against a
Vichy possession In the Western
Hemisphere--either Martinique, St.
Pierre or F-ench Guiana.
The position Vichy then found it
self In must have been quite un-
comfortable 1t had supplied all its
territories On this side Of the water
with arms and ammunition. For
example, enough modern guns Of
numerous varieties were found on
st. Pierre b. the Free French to put
up the blocdiest kind Of resistance
against any invading force. But the
heartbreaking thing. as far as Vichy
was concerned, was that Vichy
could not rely on finding loyal
hands to man the arms 1t had sent
over.
So Vichy did the nimblest thing
