Revenue Bureau Maps New
Squeeze On Gamblers Who
Try To Evade Federal Tax
WASHINGTON R 81 The govern

WASHINGTON B - The govern
ment means to make it easier for
its tax collectors to convict gam
blers who evade paying the $50-a-
year occupational tax Congress
imposed on them last fall.
To do it, the Internal Revenue
Bureau started steps today to re-
quire numbers operators, book
makers and other bet-takers to pay
the tax before they start operating.
Now, they're required only to
pay their occupational tax by the
end of the month that they start
in the gambling business. And it's
hard sometimes to prove they've
been operating long enough to be
overdue on their tax payment.
ut seems they've always lust
started operating, - an official told
reporter. Our agents caught a
man in Pennsylvania the other day
with a desk loaded with numbers
game tickets. He told them: II
just started an hour ago-that's
my story and I'm sticking to it. !"
Changing a tax regulation in
wolves SO much red tape. however,
that the pay-berore-you-go rule for
gamblers cant be made effective
before Sept l. The bureau has to
give people a month to state any
objections they have. duly consider
protests, publish notice of a rule
change and wait a month to put
it into effect.
The bureau has convicted about
SO gamblers of evading the occu-
pational tax since it was imposed
last November. But it's having no
easy time trying to enforce that law
or q companion tax Congress
passed last fall to nick gamblers
for 10 per cent of the amount of
bets they take in.
For one thing, the bureau asked
Congress for money to hire 1000
additional agents to make the
bookie breakdown Congress d.
rected. And Congress didn't give
il one extra man. so the bureau is
having to rely largely on local
police for tips and evidence against
.ax-evading gamblers.
Revenue receipts from the two
comparatively new taxes on gam
blers have failed so far to come
up to even one per cent of the 400
million dollars year Congress
estimated they would bring when it
passed them. In seven months, the
10 per cent levy on bets has
yielded only three million dollars,
the occupafiunal tax only about
$3I5, 900. .,,x 80 $3.50

/ marched into the compound shortly
before Boatner issued a statement
acknowledging that rations have
been withheld from three com
pounds on separate days.
There have been reports that
food rations we're reduced to en-.
force discipline among unruly pris-
0ners. Boatner said this was not
the case.
AT no time have we withheld
rations as a weapon to obtain
obedience to any order, nor have
we threatened to do so. the gener-
al said.
1--WE were taking offensive action
against them because of their de-
fiance and illegal actions Boat
ner said. In view of this and
knowing they had stocks of food
boarded it would have been mani
testify absurd for us to provide
them with more food :. Il"
Boatner emphasized that the
Geneva Convention provides for
withholding rations under certain
conditions.
Observers said some Semblance
of order seems to be emerging
from the near-chaos which existed
when Boatner took over. Wednes-
day the general personally directed
three raids into prison compounds
to destroy flags and insulting ban
ners raised by the Reds.
Eventually Boatner plans to split
the $4,000 inmates into groups Of
500 or less. More trouble is ex-
pected when troops start moving
prisoners from the big compounds
where Boatner says they have been
boarding food, gasoline, oil and
weapons.

Laurel Urged
To Campaign
For President
BY FRANK L. WHITE

MANILA-Jose p. Laurel, prob
ably the most controversial poll
teal figure in the Philippines, is
being urged by friends to campaign
for the presidency again in 1858.
He made an unsuccessful bid
against President Elpido Qnirino
in 1949. as head Of the opposition
Nacionalista Party, but asserted
he was beaten by fraudulent votes.
Last Fall, Laurel was elected
to the Senate by the largest ma
jority ever given a candidate for
any office in the island republic.
On his 61st birthday recently ne
said his future plans depend on
his party.
Powerful Support
Among those urging Laurel 10

dominant Liberal Party. Paroles
was elected head of the senate
when NacionaIista senator,
Felisberta Verano, crossed party
lines to break a 1912 deadlock
which had prevented organiza-
ton of the senate for IS days.
A storm of controversy swirled
around Laurel since the us.
liberated the islands from the
Japanese in 1915.
Laurel had remained behind--as
chief justice of the supreme court
when the late commonwealth
president Manuel Quezon and
Vice President Sergio Osmena
fled from Corregidor with General
Macarthur in 1912.
Laurel said Quezon had asked
him to stay land do what you can
for the Filipino people" During
the occupation, the invaders set
up a puppet government and
placed Laurel at its head.
In the meantime Quezon died in
the United States.
Trip To Japan
After MacArthur's forces re-
turned to the Philippines Laurel
went to Japan. He was charged
with treason after Japan's sur
render and brought back to Manila.
However, IN February, 1913
congressional approval of am
nesty for more than 1000 Fill
pinos freed him Of the charges. A
month later he announced his
candidacy for president.
Laurel's friends insist that his
charge of being counted out in
the ls49 presidential race is
justified by the recount of votes
in the contest of ex-justice Claro
M. Recto in the senate race of
that year.
The electoral tribune reported

running on the Nacionalista
ticket. received 250.000 m n e
votes than were credited to him.
Vote Dispute

as many votes as did Recto and
that the 00,o00-vote margin

independent candidate, lose

Marketing Costs
Raise Food Bill

THE BIGGEST part of the in
crease in retail prices of food DUR
ing the past IL months has been
marketing costs, which have risen
about five percent during the past
year, according to Economist Earl
Moncur of the Wyoming Agricul-
tural Extension service.
Marketing costs consist of such
items as labor, packaging, freight
and other incidental services. These
costs are reflected in the cost of
the product to the consumer, who
often thinks that because the price
Of a product is high, the farmer is
getting rich" This is not the case,
asserts Moncur. ''The farmer is
getting less than half the consumers
dollar" he says.
In February, 1851, the farmers
share of the consumers food dollar
was 81 cents. In June, 1852, the
farmers share had declined to 48
cents. In the six years from 1916
to 1852 farm prices increased about
40 percent, but marketing charges
increased about so percent So it's
easy to see that the housewife has
been paying for more .'middlenan"
lin the form of additional packag-
ing, added vitamins and precooking,
and similar items brought about by
today's more complex food manu-
featuring process. Examples: Pam
cake and cake mixes.
# such packaging and processing
innovations increase, a larger per-
centage of the food dollar will go
for these services rather than to
the farmer for the raw, unprocessed
food product, says Moncur.
If there is a decline in retail
prices in the next year, it viii prob-
ably be due to lower prices to the
farmer rather than lower market
ing costs, which, once established
are much more rigid than farm com
modify prices.
