muCn DelLer pOSltlOH ana Will
this year receive an income in
excess of S22 million dollars
from the tax.
Questioned BY Audience
Questions from Vice-Mayor
Michael V. Disable. councilman
Tom Burke, Ad Thacher and
others addressed to Mr. Wernick
revealed that all income with
the exception of corporations, is
taxable under the Philadelphia
plan. Corporations are subject to
an income tax from the state
which takes precedence over the
tax over the city.
Asked If the tax had enabled
Philadelphia to reduce its debt,
Mr.. Wernick replied that the
city's bonded debt has been re-
duced and its credit was in such
shape that it could borrow any
where.
Taxes paid to the city o.
Philadelphia are deductable
from Federal income taxes it
was revealed by the speaker
who added, Il deduct them from
my own tax"
Gregg Opposes Tax
Ronald Gregg, executive sec
retary of the Toledo Municipal
League asked Council to reject
the ! per cent tax on cor
coprations explaining that his
objections were based on the
opinion that such a tax would
act as a deterrent in bringing
new industries to Toledo.
In reply to a query addressed
to him relative to Philadelphia s
experience with corporations as
result of the tax, Mr.. Wernick
said that such threats had been
made in Philadelphia, but that
new business continues to come
into the city.
Mayor Wants Vote
At the conclusion of the testi-
mony of the various groups rep
resented in the meeting, Mayor
Lloyd f. Roulet made a motion
TO vote on the ordinance. Coun-
Gilman Tom Burke moved to
defer action and held that such
a motion took precedence over
the Mayors motion.
Mayor Disable who pre-
sided over the Committee of the
Whole meeting was in a guam
Diary and explained that mas
much as the Labor Management
Citizens Committee would very
likely wish to be heard that he
would like TO see the matter de-
ferred for the new Council
which take office next week.
Councilman Tom Burk G
pointed out to Mayor Roulet that
to put the ordinance to a vote
at this time might result in its
defeat, and said he believed il
would be better to defer the
matter for the incoming Council
and continue TO hold hearings
on the ordinance in order to en-
able all groups to present their
views.
Mayor Withdraws Motion
Observing that IL was the wish
Of Council to defer action, Mr..
Roulet said that he would with
draw his motion inasmuch as IL
was evident that the other mem
bers of Council did not care ia
vote on the proposal and wished
to hold additional hearings.
Council agreed that hearing,
would be held beginninr
Wednesday, Jan. 2 and continue
for two weeks. The vote to
defer action was made by voice
and carried unanimously.
Present at the meeting were
the two incoming councilmen
Leonard +. Donovan and James
B. Simmons, Jr. who have been
invited by Council TO sit In or
the hearings when they begin

UPHOLD VETO POWER

Mr.. John Foster Dulles, one of the
American representatives to the first
meeting ofathe United Nations Organiza-
LION IN London, warns against any attempt
10 convert the UNO into a world govern
ment through the elimination of the veto
power of the permanent members of the
Security Council"
Mr.. Dulles thinks that it is wholly UNI
realistic to consider the abolition of the
veto power which was use> on three occa-
Slons by the Soviet Union, but points out
that Russia is not the only permanent
member unwilling to subject its interests
to the disposition of the Council.

We were under the impression, that
the Jews in the United States,-for example,
are AmsrieRn citizens and protected by
the laws OF this country The same obserVa-
ton applies, we think, to the Jews in Great
Britain and in other civilized countries.
1t is unfortunate that some Jewish
leaders, in the effort to establish Palestine
as a national home for the Jews, base their
argument upon the assertion that the Jews
are apart from existing national govern
ments. Nearly everybody knows that there
are intelligent, distinguished and loval
citizens of the United States who are Jews.
The same statement is true of any other
country.
