Payroll Tax
Is Amended
DiSolIe Proposes
Four Levy Funds

Toledo's payroll tax, bitterly
fought by the CIO now two
thirds of the way to its passage
as a result of the second read
ing of the ordinance on Monday
of this week struck a legislative
bonzana on Wednesday when
Vice Mayor Michael V. Disable
proposed eight amendments to
the law.
DiSalle's amendments would
allocate funds derived from the
payroll tax into four separate
funds and remove the City
Manager from the Board of Re-
view and Appeals.
One amendment would re-
place the City Treasure with a
Director of Taxation.
Also set up in the amend
ments is a formula for the coll

two parties to the disputes.
While no seizure plans
were revealed by the labor
department, it is believed that
continuation of the strikes will
eventually lead to government
action unless the managements
of the various struck industries
show an inclination to accept
the compromise offered by the
President.
AFL Will Return
Reacting to the threatened
government seizure of the meat
packing plants, AFL officials
said that the workers in their
Organization would return to
work if the government took
over the industry.
CIO made no statements on
what action would be taken in
the event the plants were seized.
CIO action to end the tax re-
bate guaranteed to industry by
the Treasury department was
taken this week when CIO Pres
ident Philip Murray requested
Secretary of the Treasury Vim
son to take steps Immediately to
terminate rebate provisions in
the present revenue laws.
Can Remain Closed
Murray pointed out to Secre-
tary Vinson that under the tax
rebate provision, the steel indus
try could keep its plants closed
indefinitely during 1916 and
still receive financial benefits.

RaiIroaders
Little


Representatives of three
major railroads running into
Toledo were able to throw
but little light on why indus
tries do not come to Toledo
! in meeting with the Labor
Mana gement-Citizens Fact-Find-
ing subcommittee at the Com
Imodore Perry Hotel on Wednes-
day of this week.
Net effect of the meeting was
summed up by one of the rail-
readers himself in a statement
that when industry looks for a
new site, it considers more
than one location. All the cities
which fail to get the industry
would like to know why they
were not chosen.
To Continue Hearings
1t was the opinion of ths COM
mittee that hearings should con-
tinue to be held. 1t was an
nounced that letter had been
sent out to local industries ask
ing them to appear before the
committee and give their version
of why industries do not come
here and why some of them are
expanding by going elsewhere,
or actually considering moving
their plants out of town.
Discussion or productivity
raised last week in the initial
meeting of the committee was
continued with labor members
expressing the view that Tole-
dos productivity rate with
other cities and in some respects
exceeded them.
Industry members continued
to express the view that there
was a real production problem
in Toledo in some industries and
promised to bring out the fig
ures in later meeting.
Members of the committee
will be on call for another meet
ing at which time several indus
trial representatives will dis
cuss their problems with the
group.

Murray
Industry

WASHINGTON, Jan. I'll
CIO President Philip Murray,
who announced the begin
ming of the steel strike here
today, accused big industry of
a plot to break the unions and a
revolution against the people of
the United States.
Murray said that General Mo-
tors, General Electric, Westing-
house, packing and other COM
panies was part of pattern
which was now joined by steel.
The CIO leader said that Pres
ident Benjamin Fairless, u. S.
Steel Corporation president, had
approved of the 1912 per cent
proposal and promised to recon-
mend it to the steel companies.
Calls 1t Rebellion
Said Murray, "the net effect
of the decision made by U. S.
Steel in refusing to accept the
decision of the President of the
United States, constitutes in my
mind a rebellion, if not actually
a revolution on the part of big
business against the people of
the United States"
Tax rebates guaranteed by the
federal government make it pos
sible for the steel corporation to
keep their plants closed during
1946 at a financial benefit and
were using the funds for union
busting and strike-breaking, he
said.

WASHINGTON, Jan. % = No progress has been re-

fortunately, insufficient and the
only substantial assistance received

Equality Declared Upheld.
The Moscow radio said tonight
that the Soviet Union was uphold

to the Associated Press as the basis
Of the United Nations strength.
