Federal Spending May be Limited

Washington, Oct. Gins The
economy movement continued TO
gain Roadway in the House Ways
and Means Committee today as
some members discussed sugges-
ton that a limit on government
spending be written into any
tax bill reported.
Headed by a ranking Democrat,
these members believe that Con-
gress should work out spending
formula which would make it illei
gal for the executive branch TO ex-
pend more than a certain percent
age Seyoni actual revenue from
taxes.
President Roosevelt himself, has
spoken several times OF wartime
policy calling for financing at least
half OF current expenditures by
taxation-50 per cent by borrow
ing, so per cent by taxation, has
been the phase used.
Although admitting the difficulty
OF placing a ceiling on government
spending in time Of global war,
there are several Ways and Means
Committeeman who are not salts
fed with way the presidential
policy has worked so far.
They complain that the expendi-
lures are sought first, and the addi-
tional taxes needed to meet the
$3.50 policy demanded later. Spe-
officially they point TO the current
100 billion dollar outlay with
amounting to 40 per cent OF that
sum.
A request by the Administration
for an additional 10 billion 500 mil
lion dollars in taxes to make up
the difference Is now pending be-
fore the committee, but its chances
OF adoption are estimated at ap-
proximately zero.
Instead OF supporting the Ad-
ministration's program, the Demo
cratic members OF the committee
headed by Chairman Doughton Of
North Carolina are now swinging
to the Republican position-no eco
nomy, no additional taxes.
Doughton is known to be con-
sidering an unusual move-an in
vitation to Budget Director Harold
Smith to appear before the commit
tee. Traditionally the committee
does not concern itself with ex-
penditures and hence has never
had budget director before It.
The committee has always held
its jurisdiction to be the raising
Of revenue. leaving the spending
OF it TO the Appropriations Com
mittee.

John L. Lewis
Ill, no Gain
in Mine Fight

Washington. Oct. 22-INS-Mine
Workers President John L. Lewis,
seriously III with the flu, got a
stern notice from the War Labor
Board today that his long fight to
boost the wages OF $4,000 coal
miners Is not yet won, despite the
threat OF a.fourth strike.
Although the ailing union chief
was not present at the opening ses-
sion on the proposed Illinois con-
tract, WLB Chairman William II.
Davis made II clear 10 Lewis aides
that the board was in no mood to
increase miners wages in violation
Of the Little Steel" formula.
Moreover, Davis expressed the
firm conviction that the UNIV ag-
reement with Illinois coal opera
tors, which the union visualizes as
the basic" contract for the entire
industry, does provide an outright
371s cents daily wage boost.
THE problem before the board
Is as narrow as that the WLB
chairman stated. THE problem IL

The contract actually raises the
miners earnings about two dollars
a day, but all except the S71s
cents Is accounted for by longer
working hours; payment OF tool
costs by the mine owners, and
higher vacation pay, according to
Davis position.
The miners were given an op-
portunity to answer Davis argu-
ment at the resumption OF the hear
ing today. Even II they can justify
the Illinois agreement and win the
boards approval OF it, another
problem Is posed by the reluctance
Of big Eastern and Southern opera
tors to sign on the same terms.

Due to take the stand when

tiers dealing with the young French
nobleman's business standing in

DeMarigny is accused OF murder
ing Sir Harry Cakes, American
born multi-millionairs, with four
vicious" blows upon the head
with a blunt instrument, and then
of setting fire 10 the bed in which
the baronet lay.
And yesterday, a witness placed
the 33 year old husband OF Cakes
eldest daughter within a few doors
OF the murder scene an hour or
two before the victim died.

Harry died -four to six hours az

Previously. it had been ascertained
that dinner at Westbourne, his
palatian 20 room villa had been
completed at about $3.50 .. m,
July 7th. This would place his
death at between 1880 and $3.50
a. m. July s, the morning on which
the tragedy was discovered.
Mrs. Dorothy Clark, attractive
young wife OF q Royal Air Force

night.

Under cross-examination, the
pretty young matron testified that
De Marigny lit the candle on the
dinner table that night. She said
he told his guests he had burned
his hands as he applied a match
to the wick.
The prosecution contends the
count suffered burns about the
hands and that a Van Dyke beard
which he since has shaved off
showed signs Of being singed. The
allegation is that this damage was
suffered in the fire-swept room
where cakes body was found.
