House Tackles
New Tax Plans

concluding revisions OF the estate
and gift tax laws. decided today tc
tackle next the question OF whether
TO try to raise $3.50, 100000 in new
revenue by increasing excise taxes
or by approving a sales tax.
Members said that as soon as they
voted on estate and gift tax rates
they would take up the problem OF
raising taxes on such things as gaso-
line, liquor. cigars, transportation
and communications, which Score
tary Morgenthau recommended last
March 3 as part of an overall 81
$4,000 600 tax bill.
The committee deferred until to-
day vote on estate and gift tax
rates after agreeing tentatively to
the Treasury recommendation that
a single $500 estate exemption be
substituted for the present two eX-
emptions OF $4,000 for life insur-
ance and $4,000 for other property
Morgenthau has asked that the
rates be increased materially in or.
der to produce $3.50 100000 more
revenue.
As the COMMITTEES approached the
excise tax question. members said
that the Treasurys original est
mates would have TO be revised in
the light OF recent developments.
For example. they reasoned that the
suggestion that a doubling OF the
Ia cent gasoline tax could not be
expected to yield the originally estis
mated s242200,0O0 in view OF East
Coast rationing.
They said, too. that the law OF
diminishing returns and the recent
announcement that the distilling
industry was being converted to pro
duction OF industrial alcohol might
nullify Morgenthau's request 10
raise the distilled spirits tax from
81 to IS gallon to raise s27e, 700

Rent Control
May be Coming

Ypsilanti and Washtenaw Coun-
ty may be affected. but at late
date. by a ruling today of Price
Administrator Leon Henderson
that rents in the Detroit area be
restored to the April /. 1871 level.
The ruling today affects Wayne.
Oakland and Macomb Counties, ac-
cording to Patrick Mcnamara, De.
troit area rent director.
In Detroit a 50 days notice was
given that the rents would be re-
turned to the April /, 1941 level,
and this so days period was up
May 2. An investigation period
followed and then came the order
from Mr.. Henderson. A similar
policy is expected to be followed
regarding the situation in Ypsi-
lanti, according to Mr.. Mcnamara.
Federal regulation of rents will
be imposed June ! in 20 war-con-
gested areas which the ONCE OF
Price Administration said today
had failed TO take local action.
The score of communities Was
the first group OF defense rental
areas designated by Price Admin
istrator Leon Henderson on March

In no area was II found that the

dation as to reduction OF rents has
been met for the community as a
whole the OPA said.
Since the areas have not met

Der. has not changed.
The union and city council agreed
on many points. and arrived at bet
ter understanding OF problems and
viewpoints during a five hour SEES
sion in city hall. Chief points at
issue were recognition OF the union,

establishment OF check off sys-
TEN, seniority rights, and wages.
The wage scale proposed by the
union was approximately 10 cents
an hour higher than that offered by
the council. Other differences CON
cerned individual problems which
were least difficult to adjust.
The chief obstacle standing in the
way OF union recognition was the
ruling OF the attorney general that
governmental organizations, such as
the city, have no legal right TO enter
into such contract. The city had
offered an agreement in which the
right OF all employees irrespective OF
union membership. was recognized.
and agreed TO examine contracts
signed in other cities in an effort
to find a wording which would not
violate the ruling OF the attorney
general.

At the same meeting, Russell For

for a wage Of 5000 a month. The
