that would really step up registra-

vide that Boards of Elections must

are labeled personal property. That
means business pays taxes at only
so percent of their value. Carney's
bill flashes the red light to this
device. If it's as permanent as a
house, he says, let industry pay
real estate taxes like the rest Of
US.
Anyway, Carney says, manu-
facturers shouldn't have a special
tax preference. Other folks pay
personal property taxes at 70 per-
cent of value. If it's good enough
for the rest of US, it's good enough
for industry, his bill says, putting
other tools and equipment in the
same class as any personal prop
erty.
The bill would recover millions
in lost taxes. In the House, G. D.
Tablack d., Mahoning) has Of
fered two bills designed to do the
same thing.
OTHER GOOD NEWS
Republican I. E. Baker from the
Dayton area offered S.B.-110 to
help public workers and their
unions. His measure allows a
checkoff of union dues, now not
provided by law. Homer Adele
(R.. Vinton) tossed in a bill to set
up a seniority system for public
workers to operate in event OF
layoffs.
James Joyce 3D., J~efferson)
wants to help old-age pensioners
who now can't get more than $55
q month. His H.B.-346 would give
them $65 a month.
ANTI-LABOR MEASURES
Lowell Fess (R., Greene) tossed
two meanies into the House hop
per Tuesday. Both bear the unmls-
taxable brand of the lobby and
are cagily drafted.
H.B.-339, worst of the lot, IS
obviously intended to make or
ganizing almost impossible. All
done up in fancy language, the
bill claims it's intended to protect
the right of workers." What IS
actually would do is hamstring the
workers only real protection =
his union.
The Fess measure calls Tor a
lot of cute language on member
ship application cards, and opens
the door wide for suits against
Unions by company stooges' De-
signed to carry Taft-Hartleylsm
further, it's patiently part OF the
scheme to drain union treasures
in court battles and make unions
weaker.
H.B.133S, his companion mea-
sure, would set up new antl-ooy-
colt curbs, includes stiff penalties
for picketing so-called "independ-
ent contractors" and encourages
scab shops.
Both bills are as anti-Labor as
they come.

Arlington Petition to

The Commissioners have de-
cided it would not be advisable
or appropriate for them to join
the Arlington County Board in pc
tltioning the Interstate Commerce
Commission to investigate trans.
portation services In the Metro
lpolitan Area.
The District was among the
area counties and cities asked to
join in the request for the ICC
study.

ton Public Utilities Commission,
the city heads pointed out the
ICC has statutory power to ini-
tiate any Investigations it con.
siders appropriate and necessary
PUG Action Sought.
"The Board of Commissioners
does not believe it advisable or
appropriate to join in petition
asking that body to initiate an
investigation that comes withiE
its discretionary power" the let
ter said.
The Arlington County Board
petition suggests that the inves-
tigation be undertaken by the ICC
in cooperation with the District
PUG and the State commissions.
The Commissioners pointed out
that the District PUG has broad
statutory regulatory power over
all transportation facilities and
services operating within the Dis
trict, and said they believed the
PUG. rather than the Board of
Commissioners, would be the ap-
propriate agency to deal with such
matters.
"The board further believes
that, If such investigation should
be undertaken jointly with the
local commissions, such Sugges-
ton should be initiated by the
ICC, which has exclusive jurisdic- :
ton over interstate transporta-
ton facilities" they stated.
1912 Action Cited.
The Commissioners recalled
that when the ICC started an in
vestigation in 1912 of transporta-
ton service between the District
and points in Arlington County,
an offer of cooperation by the
District PUG was not accepted.
They said they understood also
that the State Corporation Com

ton be referred to a joint board
