that the Presidents retirement now

'Our enemies in the war would

Allies in the war would have deep

THAT is why the demand for
Roosevelt TO succeed himself has
swept the Democratic party SO COM

New Poll Tax
Ban Started

Washington, May 20-AP-. The
poll tax issue turned up today in
new garb, with 33 OF the Senate's
81 Republicans co-sponsoring a
constitutional amendment TO ban
such levies and Democrats brand
ing their action political.
Senator Wherry (R-Neb.) who
introduced the amendment bearing
the signatures Of himself and 80
colleagues, talked of getting "ac-
ton this session" to bring the poll
tax squabble before the people.
Eight southern states have poll
taxes. An effort to kill the levies
by legislation was unsuccessful last
Monday when the Senate declined
to limit debate and end a filibus-
ter.
Opponents OF the anti-poll tax
bill, mostly southern Democrats.
argued that Congress- has no right
to interfere with state election
laws. Some OF them conceded that
a constitutional amendment would
meet that argument
senator george (D-Ga.l said he
favored elimination OF poll taxes
but by the states themselves.
Senator O'Mahoney (D-Wyo.l
said the Republicans had taken an
obviously political step. and had
made "a play to get credit for ef-
10 to repeal poll taxes"
The proposed amendment. which
would have to be approved by two
thirds votes in House and Senate
and be ratified by three-fourths of
the states before becoming etec-
tive. declares:
THE right OF citizens OF the
United States 10 vote shall not be
denied or abridged by the. United
states or ! J any state by reason
OF failure TO pay a poll tax.
Congress shall have the power
TO enforce this article by appro-
