FEPC Seen Heading
For Court Test Due1
Rail Labor RuIinq 4

Committee on Fair Employment
Practices to deal with the issue of
racial relations in industry today
faced the likelihood of court test,
after the committee advised 10
Southern railroads and the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and
Enginemen that their contract un-
fairly discriminates against colored
persons and must be voided.t
The committee ruling was handed
down late yesterday on the basis of
Testimony at hearings in September
When the matter was being argued
before the committee, the carriers
said they would seek court test in
the event of an unfavorable decision
The contract ordered voided has
the approval Of the National Medi-
alton Board, and the Supreme
Court last week said the board had
plenary powers in this field, and
refused to take jurisdiction in q
suit involving rival railway unions
The question a rail suit would
raise would be whether the powers
of the FEPC, derived from Presi-
dent Roosevelt under the Second
War Powers Act, supersedes the
legal machinery set up for handling
railways disputes.
The contract between the rail
union and the railroads "is de-
signed for no other purpose than
to cut down the employment OF
Negroes as firemen and to increase
the hiring of white persons in these
positions" the FEPC held in yes
terday's ruling.
Malcolm Ross, FEPC chairman
said the contract limits the hiring
of f1remen to "promotable men,
and specifically designates colored
workers as non-promotable, which
effectively debars them.
Carriers Put in Middle.
Counsel for the carriers said in
September that an adverse ruling
by the FEPC would put them lin
the middle" as it would, in effect
be an order to violate an edict of
the Mediation Board which func-
tions under the Railway Labor Act
The railroads involved are At
lantic Coast Line, Atlanta Joint
Terminals, Central of Georgia
Georgia Railroad, Jacksonville Ter
minal Co., Louisville & Nashville,
Norfolk Southern, Frisco, Seaboard
and Southern.
The Mediation Board said that
the FEPC ruling would be studied.
DR.. William Leiserson, board chair
man, declared that I'VE witness
many contracts we think are crazy
but they are agreements desired
by the parties, and we have NO
authority to approve or disapprove. y
DR.. Leiserson said the present
contracts could be altered by agree
ment of the railways and the unions
The authority of FEPC was
strongly reaffrmed by President
Roosevelt last month.
President OverruIes Warren.
Controller General Warren had
ruled that the Presidents executive
order which created FEPC and for
bade racial or religious discrimina-
ton by any firm performing services
for the Government was directive
and not mandatory.
The President overruled Mr.. War
ren and declared that his order per-
mitted no exceptions.
Some firms doing business with
the Government have refused to
insert a clause in their contracts
banning discriminatory employment
practices and it was that fact which
prompted Mr. Warreai's rulinA 2.

from so to IS. She told this story:
The fire originated in a butane
gas truck. The Santa Rosa Vol
unteer Fire Department was battling
the flames when a nearby gas
storage tank exploded. Flames shot
over f1remen and spectators.
The explosion hurled part of the
tank against Mrs. Martins house,
pinning Mrs. Martin and Chavez in
the burning debris.

Senate May Revise
House Tax Bill 10
Free Liquor Stocks

Chairman George of the Senate
Finance Committee said yesterday
1t would be proper as revenue
item" for his committee to consid-
er shortening the eight year
period liquor may be kept in bond
before becoming taxable, when the
new revenue bill comes to it from
the House.
He made the statement as
the Senate Judiciary Committee
planned to consider tomorrow morn
ing the resolution of Senator Scrug-
ham, Democrat, Of Nevada for an
investigation of supply, distribution
and other business practices of the
alcohol beverage industry.
Chairman Van Nuys of the Ju-
dietary Committee said yesterday
that if the Scrugham resolution is
approved, the inquiry would be
national in scope, but he was "in-
clined to think" it may include a
study of the situation in the Dis
trict.
Will Appoint Expert.
IF the resolution is approved and
we get the $4,000 requested to cover
the expenses, we will appoint ar in
vestigator who knows the business, :"
Senator Van Nuys said.
Senator George revealed that tine
suggestion for shortening from eight
to four years the period in which
liquor may be held tax-free in bond
had come to him from Government
sources. Obviously, he SAID, such a
change would tend to force liquor
out of bonded warehouses.
The Senator said his first reaction
to the suggestion was that it might
result in bringing out improperly
aged whisky, but he has since been
informed that poor liquor is COM
ing into the market anyhow" If
that is true, he said, it makes the
suggestion for shorter tax-free
period more pertinent" Such
change, he added, may be a way of
preventing monopoly"
Makes No Prediction.
Senator George did not predict
what action the committee might
take. In other quarters it was
pointed out that the proposed House
increase in the whisky tax from Sc
to 50 gallon would increase the
likelihood of liquor being brought
out of bonded warehouses if the tax
free period should be reduced to four
years.
The Scrugham resolution calls for
. full and complete" inquiry into

the business practices and opera
tions of the alcoholic beverage In
dustry in all Its phases"
Senator Van Nuys said that II the
resolution is approved he will name
special subcommittee to handle It.

Hog Litter of Nine
Tops 21OO Pounds
At 6-Months Age

A remarkable example of what
can be done with selected hogs on
home grown feed" is the way Ste
phen Yrs, Glasgow Smith, Hughes
agriculture teacher characteriZes a
litter grown by Royce Biddle on his
farm just west of Glasgow.
The litter of nine purebred Dur
ocs was weighed by Mr.. Yrs and
Glasgow high school agriculture
pupils this week and weighed 2.072
pounds. With four days left before
the hogs are six months old, they
will easily top 2,100 pounds, Mr..
Yrs said. He added that he had
never seen a better litter in Mon
tana.
The Durocs, of a medium type,
came from a registered boar and
SOW. They were pastured on a
Huntley mixture, supplemented by
home grown feeds fed from a self
feeder. The feed was made up Of
crushed barley and wheat, mixed,
along with some corn on the cob
on the feeding platform.
County Agent James K. McGib-
.ey commented that a good ave-
rage weight for such a litter would
be 100 pounds apiece, although the
average of the Biddle litter is about
230 pounds.

Watch Your Talk!
Never Give Troop
Name or Location

On battle fronts every day men
risk their lives to discover the To-
cation and strength of the military
units of the enemy. Yet at home,
too many of us are presenting the
enemy with information of the
same military value, the office of
censorship says in a statement.
This is the information which
newspapers and individuals are
asked not to tell the enemy:
Do not tell the names of ships
upon which sailors serve.
Do not tell the troop units in
which soldiers serve overseas.
There is no objection TO reveal
ing that Private John Jones is m
Australia or that Seaman Tom
Brown saw action in the Atlantic,
but there is military information
which %endangers the lives of Amer
lean fighting men in stating that
Private John Jones, Company c.,
600th Infantry" is in Australia, or
Seaman Tom Brown, aboard the
U.S.S. Wisconsin" is in the Atlantic.
The office of censorship says:
I'VE ask editors not to publish
these troop identifications, and we
ask parents and relatives not to re-
veal them. Don't give the enemy
anything that may lengthen the
War!"

YOUR
INCOME TAX

Editors Note: This is one of a
tax payments, prepared by the in
teinal revenue bureau. Because so
many more people will be subject
TO the tax this year, The Courier
Z publishing this series to give in
formation regarding the tax.
The federal income tax is, as the
name implies, a tax levied upon
incomes. and it is payable in re-
lation to the amount of income.
income, for federal income pur-
poses. means in general any COM
%pensation for ones services, wheth-
er the compensation be in money
or in goods or other services; it
includes also the net value received
from investments; profits from
busiress operations; and other gains
from sales and exchanges of goods
and property. Certain limited cate
gories of income are, however, tax
exempt. S.,
Because of exemptions from the
tax given to persons having less
than certain stated amounts of in
COtllC. do NCll DO b-Cdh1C vi NoA1Oa1
deductions and credits allowable,
only a small proportion of the
number of persons receiving in
come have until recently been sub
ject to the tax. Thus, of the eStl-
mated 5 5000, 900 persons in this
country who received income in one
form or another during the calen-
dar year 1871, only some &c, 000,0 900
persons were required to file federal
income tax returns for that year.
while of these same 26, 000, 900, more
than 5000, 600 were not taxable due
to credits and deductions allowable.
AS a result of the lowering of
exemptions, many more persons are
now subject to the federal income
tax than before, and for 1912 it is
estimated that more than 35,000,-
600 persons will file federal income
tax returns. To the large number OF
persons now subject to the federal
income tax. who have never re-
ported income before for federal
tax purposes, an understanding of
the law and applicable regulations
is of prime Importance.
An income tax return Is a declar-
alton on the part of the taxpayer
Of his total taxable income for the
year. together with the various de-
auctions. exemptions and credits to
which he is entitled. 1t is in re-
lance upon voluntary disclosure,
and the integrity of taxpayers gen.
orally. that the cost of administra-
ton of the income tax can be kept
at a minimum. Though the return
IS a voluntary statement, any per-
son who willfully makes a return
which he does not believe to be
and correct in every material
matter is subject to the penalties
provided by law.
The first requirement of the law
is the filing of an appropriate re-
turn. For individuals generally, this
must be done by March Is fol-
