SPOKANE, WASH, June IT,
Tomorrow is the 40th anniversary
of Fathers Day.
To Mrs. John Bruce Dodd the
Widespread observance Of the oc-
casion Is beyond the broadest
hopes" she had when the Spokane
City Council first indorsed her re-
quest, for such a way in 1910.
Mrs. Dodd, a Spokane mother
who still takes an active part in
civic affairs. founded the day" as
a tribute to her own devoted
father.
The idea for a Fathers Day, she
recalls. had its roots in a modest
farm house in the rolling Big Bend
Hills of Eastern Washington on a
cold March night in the late 1905.
1t was the home of William
Jackson Smart. a quiet, hard
working family man who had
moved west after the crops failed
on his Arkansas farm. This night
he struggled with his biggest heart
ache. He had just returned from
his wife's funeral and was trying
to explain the tragedy to six small
children who asked when mother
would be back. From that mo-
ment Billy Smart became both
mother and father to his family.
In the hard years that followed,
he did his lob well.

Blood Donor With AiIinq Son
Marks q Special Fathers Doy

Today is a special Fathers Day
for Philip D. Bell.
A year ago his four-year-old
son Jonathan was given only
months to live. This week the boy
came home from Children's Hos
pital with a definite chance Of
recovery"
Philip Bell, a Bureau of Ships
electrical engineer of 1872 Irving
ton street S.W., has been a blood
donor in the last 10 years as often
as the Red Cross would allow. To-
day his son is alive only because
300 pints of blood were available
for transfusions.
"The first time ever gave my
blood was back in 1910 when a
fellow worker had an accident.
They say it helped save his life.
and ever since I've been kind of
a fanatic about donating blood, I"
explains the father.

Head of MotherIess Family of 6
Inspired Fathers Day in 1910

When his daughter Sonora mar
ried John Bruce Dodd. q Spokane
business man, Billy Smart had
raised six motherless children to
adulthood.
Mrs. Dodd conceived her idea
while listening to Mothers Day
sermon in 1909 at the Spokane
Central Methodist Church. When
it was over she went to the pastor,
DR.. Henry RaSmus, and asked:
II liked everything you said
about motherhood. but don't you
think father should have a spe-
cial day. too?"
DR.. Rasmus promised to help
Mrs. Dodd to do something about
a Fathers Day. All that year and
into the next Mrs. Dodd gained
local support for her idea.
The next spring she presented
q petition to the Spokane Minis
terial Society asking that SER
mons be preached on fatherhood
sometime in June, the month Of
her fathers birth.
The ministers went with her
to the City Council where they
secured Fathers Day proclama-
ton from the Mayor. Then Gov.
M. E. Hay proclaimed the third
Sunday in June Fathers Day in
the State of Washington.
Newspaper syndicates picked up
the story and gave it wide circu-
lation. At home, Mrs. Dodd
worked on department store man.
ayers and asked for window dis
plays. Most thought it was a
gag.
She did get sympathetic atten-
ton. however. from John Matthie-
son, who arranged in his store
windows a picture Of George
Washington. the father of our
country; an American flag; and,
a card that read simply: "Remem-
ber Father"
When that first Fathers Day
arrived on June 10. 1910, Mrs.
Dodd sat in her pew at the Gen.
tenary Presbyterian Church here
and heard the Rev. Conrad
Bluhm devote his sermon to dad.
He called it: The Knighthood
That Never Retreats"
To Mrs. Dodd the title was most
appropriate. Her own father, the
inspiration Of her plan. had never
f1inched in his duties. He lived
by the golden rule" she said.
Billy Smart died in 1919 at the
age Of n. And. although he lived
to see nine of them, he never
mentioned Fathers Day in the
presence of his daughter.

schedule OF cuts In wartime excise
rates on goods and services,
amounting to about 81 billion. It
also has decided to close legal
loopholes In other tax laws In q
move estimated to bring into the
Treasury about Sass million.
Corporation Tax Boost Studied.
But it has been made clear 70
congressional leaders that any tax
bill which fails approximately to
balance the excise cuts with new
revenue from other sources will be
vetoed.
The House group Is reported to
be considering q $500 million in
crease in corporation income
taxes, which. with the other new
sources Of revenue already ap-
proved. would come close to on
setting the 81 billion reduction in
excise taxes on things like furs,
iewelry. cosmetics. telephone bills,
movie tickets. other miscellaneous
items and on travel.
To get the $500 million addi-
tional from corporation income
levies. the committee is believed
to be considering a boost in the
corporation tax rate from SS per
cent to about IL per cent, with
other changes which would mean
higher taxes for only the 10 per
cent Of corporations with earnings
Of $l20.000 or more a year. and
possibly some reduction for COR
porations in the lower income
brackets.
The Ways and Means Commit
tee may vote on these and other
last-minute proposals tomorrow
or Tuesday. The Senate Finance
Committee is waiting to see what

b WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
w. Va, June TIN an atmos-
phere heavy with politics, gover-
nors of most of the States began
gathering here today for a look
at world affairs through the eyes
of two top Federal officials.
Secretary of State Acheson was
billed as the chief attraction at
a round table discussion of for
eign affairs for the third day Of
the annual Governors Confer
ence Tuesday.
With Republican and Demo-
cratic governors due to be almost
equally represented, there were
signs that Mr.. Acheson will have
the opportunity-if he wants to
take ito defend the State De-
partment against charges that it
Is harboring Communists.

traitor. the governors will get a
first hand account Monday night
at their annual State dinner OF
Western Europe's recovery and
what is in the wind for the future.
Aside from these two excursions
into the field of foreign affairs,
however, the governors planned
to devote most of their time to
such problems as the reorganiza-
tion of State governments, water
resources. highway safety, truck
regulation and treatment OF the
mentally i'll.
There isn't supposed to be any
politics involved when the gov
ernors get together, but there
always is and this years meeting
already was of to. a running start.
Democratic governors had an
invitation to lunch with President
Truman at Washington Thursday.

Gov. DeweYs decision not to
run may have considerable effect
upon the Democratic choice of a
gubernatorial candidate. To win
in New York, a Democratic can
didate must have the Endorsement
of the Liberal Party-for if that
party put up candidate of its
own, it would so lessen the
strength of the Democratic can
didate as to make it improbable
he could win.
Four Democrats whom the
Liberal Party would go for are
Representative Franklin D. Roose-
velt, jr., Justice Ferdinand Pc
cora, Oscar r. Ewing, Federal
Security Administrator. and w.
Averell Hartman, former Secre-
tary of Commerce who has just
been named a Special Assistant to
President Truman. With Mr.. Dew
ley out of the race, Justice Pecora
may be the selection, and some of
the party leaders would like to
have Mr.. Roosevelt on the ticket
as candidate for lieutenant gov
|ernor. The nomination seems to
lie between Justice Pecora and
Mr.. Roosevelt, with Mr.. Hartman
as possible dark horse.
Senator Lehman, Democrat, of
New York, comes up for re-elec-
ton next fall. The fact that he is
in his 73d year may remove the
question of age from the cam
paign, a question which might
otherwise be raised against Mr..
Hanley If he is the Republican
nominee for Governor.
Since Mr.. Hanley is an upstate
New Yorker-and so is Senator
Ives-it is considered likely the
Republicans will pick a Senatorial
nominee from New York City, and
probably a Catholic. William j.
wild Bid Donovan; Edward
Corsi, industrial commissioner;
Mary Donlon, chairman of the
Workmen's Compensation Board
and Thomas J. Curran, secretary
of state and chairman of the New
York County Republican Commit
tee. would all qualify. Other po-
tential candidates - unless Gov
Dewey should act on Senator
Brewster'S suggestion - include
John Foster Dulles, who ran
against Senator Lehman last No
vember and lost by a compare
lively narrow margin, Representa-
tive Frederic r. Coudert, jr., and
Oren Root. Gen. Donovan ran fol
Governor at one time against Sen
ator Lehman, and in 1914, Mr.
Curran was the Republican candi-
date for the Senate against former
Senator Wagner.

Two Of the biggest problems Of
the session-taxes and appropria-
tions-will be in the limelight on
Capitol Hin this week.
On the House side. the Ways
and Means Committee. after sew
eraI months OF study Is about
ready for q showdown on whether
1t can recommend cuts in war
time excise taxes and find enough
offsetting revenue to save the bill
from Q Truman veto.
On the Senate side. Chairman

Committee set next Saturday as
his goal for reporting out the Sem
ate version Of the big single
package appropriation bill to run
the entire Government next year.

The hopes Of congressional
leaders to adjourn early In August
and get home for the election
campaign hinge on how much
controversy these two fiscal bills
provoke.
Government employees win be
waiting anxiously to see what ac-
ton the Senate Appropriations
Committee takes on the omnibus
supply bill, because Of the three
far-reaching economy amend
ments adopted by the House to
reduce personnel. Senator Nc
Keller indicated yesterday his
committee has not reached final
decision on these amendments.
One Of the House amendments
prohibits the filling Of 80 per
cent Of the Government jobs that
become vacant by normal turn
over. This would mean only a.
500 Of the estimated 225. 900 va
cancies occurring during q year
could be filled.
Another House amendment calls
for O 10 per cent reduction In
personnel in non-military agencies,
and 2 per cent in military bureaus.
A third House amendment would
ban the accumulation Of annual
leave.
Bill Cut 81 Billion.
These amendments were adopted
on the floor of the House after
the Appropriations Committee al
ready had shaved the estimates
Of many agencies by an overall
total Of nearly 81 billion. Re-
publicans who sponsored the per-
centage cuts in personnel contend
their amendments would save
another 81 billion, but Democrats
have questioned these figures.
As 1t left the House the omnibus
bill authorized close to 500 billion
for all domestic functions of
Government. except interest on
the debt and other fixed charges.
When these are added, along with
the foreign spending programs,
which were not ready when the
House acted, next years budget
is expected to be somewhere above
$40 billion.
Senator McKellar said yesterday
he thought the Senate would be
able to pass the omnibus appro-
priation bill IN a week or ten days.
If his prediction is borne out 1t
will brighten the prospects for
adjournment by early August.
Meanwhile, the situation on
taxes as the Ways and Means
Committee prepares for final &C
