New York City (ILNS).-E. G.
Quesnel, regional representative of
the National Committee for the Con-
servation of Manpower in War Indus
tries, reported here reduction in in
dustrial accidents in war plants
throughout the nation of per cent sc
far this year.

gram to conserve manpower through
the application of safety measures

cident total was the aim. Specia
awards will be made, he added, fol

ment Of home workers in the embroid-
cry industry.
With the concurrence of Judge
Learned Hand, Judge Jerome N. Frank
held that Walling, in issuing the ban
as part of an order that also set a
minimum wage of 40 cents an hour
for embroidery workers, had acted
within the authority granted him un-
der Section SCI of the Fair Labor
Standards Act of 1898.
Dissenting, Judge Thomas w. Swan
maintained that Walling's power un-
der this section was limited to the
making of regulations for carrying
out the minimum wage and hours pro-
visions of the law, and then only to
such regulations as were ''truly Incl
dental" to the main object. He held
that the virtual elimination of home
work in which $500 persons, or about
third of the embroidery industry,
had engaged, was beyond the admin
istrator's power.
Coleman CANCEL, counsel for some
of the numerous employers and en-
ployes who had sought nulllifcation OF
the order, said the case would be ap-
pealed to the Supreme Court.

FITTON ANNOUNCES
EMERGENCY NEEDS

Appropriations of $875, 900 to meet
emergency needs for aid to our Allies
have been made by the National War
Fund, it was announced today by Don
w. Fitton, president of the Commun-
ity War Chest on the notice received
from Winthrop w. Aldrich, president
National War Fund.
These appropriations, Mr.. Aldrich
said, were made following requests for
additional emergency funds totalling
$3,264, ,158. The grants made will be
drawn from an available reserve fund
of $1,025,OOO created out of monies
raised in last years campaign. Fol-
lowing payment of these appropria-
tions there will be $150,000 left in the
reserve fund and there are budget re-
quests still to be considered for relief
for the Philippines and new agencies
which have applied for membership in
the fund.
The appropriations made included:
$45O,O0O for supplementary relief
work in Egypt, Sicily, Sardinia and
Southern Italy to be carried on by
American Relief for Italy; 100000 to
United China Relief, to be used largely
in providing assistance to Chinese who
suffered as the result of the recent
japanese drive on Changsha; 100000
to French Relief Fund to purchase
milk for French children, which will
be shipped into France through Swift
zerland and aid in meeting abnormal
shortages which are resulting from
the invasion; $4,000 to Belgian Re-
lief to provide additional parcels for
Belgian soldiers and emergency aid
to refugees; $4,000 to the Queen Will
helmina Fund for medicine to be sent
into Holland through arrangement
with the blockade authorities.
"All of these appropriations would
have been larger" Mr.. Aldrich said
"if the funds had been available. For
tunately some of the needs can be met
through other sources, as IN Italy
where the current situation is largely
in the hands of the AMG and our re-
lief funds are merely for supplement
ary work"
These funds said Mr.. Fitton were
made available through local commun
ity War Chest Campaign such as th'
one which will be held in October thi
year.

Hidden Taxes
BriingBigSunn
WASHINGTON, oct.I5 CUP)-

I WASHINGTON. Oct./5 CUP)-
Republicans and De m ocrat $
kRnged up this week on federal
else and nuisance taxes, causing
correspondents 10 borrow from
the treasury some statistics show
ing how much the public is being
tapped by these hidden levies,
most of which would be sales
taxes IL called by their right
name.
Excise and nuisance taxes are
political slang phrases 10 gloss
over the fact that the federal
government is i'm the sales tax
business and has been making a
good thing of il since the first
emergency levies were laid in the
Hoover administration.
FOUR CATEGORIES
Aside from the liquor and to-
bacco taxes which might be
lowered some time but probably
never will be b a n d o n d as
sources Of federal revenue, there
are four categories of excise and
nuisance taxes; documentary
taxes, such as those which re-
Quire use of a federal stamp;
manufacturers excise taxes; mis-
cellaneous taxes, and retailers
excise taxes.
The manufacturers and retail
ers' excise taxes are sales taxes
pur and simple although the for
mer is collected from the manu-
facturer but paid indirectly across
the retail counter. The retail
category embraces four levies:
jewelry, furs, toilet preparations
and luggage
The treasury reports that It's
Tax take on those four items last
month was S24,600,00O.
MISCELLANEOUS TAX
Miscellaneous taxes cover 20
items. ranging from tax on the
use of boats TO levy on coconut
and other proceSsed oils, club
dues, initiation fees and oleo-
rgarine. The August take on
bse 20 items was S139, 100 600.
Gasoline is included in the
manufacturers sales tax list and
that is one item on which the
consumer sees the tax when he
pays 1t.
Gasoline distributors usually
show on their pumps the tax
charge per gallon. OF the $63,-
21S.OO0 raised last month by
manufacturers excise taxes, more
than S36, 100000 was gasoline
revenue.
