Under-secretary Mills of the treas- ury made the criticism of a program outlined by Representative Rainey of Illinois, the Democratic house leader, which advocated heavy surtax levies on the wealthy. In a statement Tuesday night Mills said there was “little profit in ‘soak- ing the rich’” because, “the-Jarge in- comes are no longer there.” The program suggested by Rainey thas not met with the general approv- ‘al of other Democratic leaders. Ad- vised of Mills’ criticism of the Rainey program, Speaker Garner said: “Nobody has been authorized to speak for the Democratic party on a, tax program, and nobody has. There) is no complete program yet.” j ‘The Democrats, however, are in ac-; cord in the idea of imposing taxes on} those best able to bear them. In ad- dition, they expect to bring about $200,000,000 into the treasury by stopping loopholes in the existing law. Rainey ddvocated repeal of the cap- vision of the present law, levying of a maximum surtax of 60 per cent, and making new taxes effective on the current year’s incomes. He opposed ‘the lowering of exemptions on small incomes. Mills said the program was inade- quate to meet the prospective $2,000,- 000,000 treasury deficit. A 60-per-cent surtax would collect only an additional $120,000,000, he said, adding “the number of incomes ‘of $100,000 and over fell from about 16,000 in 1928 to about 6,200 in 1930. There will unquestionably be a fur- ther substantial reduction in the cal- endar year 1932.” He charged the Democrats proposed | to operate the government on bor- rowed money. BLOODY CLOTHING | LEADS 10 MYSTERY Sleuths Investigating Disap- pearance of Minnesota Farm Worker Blue Earth, Minn., Dec. 30.—(P)— Finding of clothes saturated with blood Wednesday added to the mys- tery surrounding the disappearance Saturday of Carl Schweienberg, 27- year-old Guckeen farm hand. Schweienberg resided with his sis- ter and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Gust, on a farm near Guckeen, seven miles west of here. He disal peared Saturday night while his rela- tives were shopping. His automobile was missing. Foul play was not suspected until his blood-soaked garments were found behind a suitcase in a closet in the Gust home. Two operatives of the Minnesota bureau of criminal apprehension Wed- nesday joined Sheriff W. H. Keigley in_ investigating. Schweienberg is known to have had between $15 and $20 Saturday night. Sheriff Keigley said a pocket book containing $5 was found on a dresser in his room. PS OS all ee dS ae sj Heart Wound Fails | | To Kill Ohio Boy | ofA etree ee Youngstown, Ohio, Dec. 30.— (®)—Shot in the heart, a boy was saved when the blood pushed the bullet into an artery. The bullet finally lodged in the boy’s groin, where surgeons said Wednesday it will be permitted to remain for the time being. The boy, Harry Besharre, was shot by a playmate Saturday. He was reported in good condition. The bullet lodged in the wall of the heart's left auricles. Ex- pansion and contraction of the heart muscles worked it into the auricle with a blood clot building up behind it preventing hemorr- hage. Physicians hope the bullet will work further down in the femoral artery to a point in the left leg where it can be removed without danger. Tells Congressmen To Reduce Own Pay Washington, Dec. 30.—(?)—Con- gressional leaders were told Wednes- day by Senator Couzens, Republican, Michigan, to start any salary slashing in the government with 25 per cent cuts in their own pay checks before going to the workers. a “This business of cutting salaries is |f starting at the wrong point,” asserted Couzens. *““Let us make a 25 per cent cut in the salaries of members of congress gnd cabinet members. “When we have first evidenced our willingness to make sacrifices then it will be time to discuss reductions for others.” Poison ‘Alky’ Kills Minnesota Resident Lakefield, Minn., Dec. 30.—/P)—One man was dead and another seriously ill Wednesday following drinking of Poison alcohol. John Peterson, 27, Jackson, was found dead in a shack while a com- panion, John Tungland, 58, of Lake- field“is ill. Says Vast Majority Oppose Cancellation Washington, Dec. 30.—(?)—Senator Johnson of California believes the American people are 100 to 1 against reduction or cancellation of war debts. The Californian said, however, Eur- ope has some reason to believe that America was willing to trim the debts. | J Hear Bankers’ Trial District Judge C. W. Buttz of Dev- ils Lake was named Tuesday by the ‘state supreme court to preside at the trial of three former officers of the closed Farmers and Merchants Bank | of Lakota. Judge Buttz will replace Judge G. jGrimson of Rugby who asked to be relieved of hearing the case. Judge Grimson was appointed by the su- Preme court to sit in the case after an affidavit of prejudice was filed in| Nelson county against Judge P. G. Swenson of Grand Forks. R. C. Chisholm, C. W. Lewis, and James D. Gronna are the former of- ficers of the bank who will stand trial. They were indicted on charges of using illegal methods in the oper- ation of the bank. LABOR FEDERATION ASKS FEDERAL HELP Wants Government to Make Li- beral Appropriations For Unemployed ‘Washington, Dec. 30.—(®)—The American Federation of Labor Wed- nesday threw the full force of its in- fluence squarely behind the drive for direct federal appropriations for un- employment relief. Edward F. McGrady, legislative rep- resentative of the Federation, told a Senate committee a national emerg- ency existed which could be met only by the federal government. He esti- mated 7,500,000 would be out of work jmext year. It was the first time the federation had taken a stand on the issue of federal relief, to which President Hoover is opposed. Federal aid also was asked by other ‘witnesses, “Many states, cities and isolated districts” frankly admit they are un- able to meet the demands that are being made upon them for relief for the needy,” McGrady said. He asserted the federation has contributed $52,000,000 in the last two| years to its needy membership. “We are going to try to assist our members as much as possible,” he said, “but with unemployment in- creasing we very much fear that we will have to call upon the public au- er to assist us in carrying this loa “If the states and communities ad- mit it is absolutely impossible for them to aid in this relief, then the only agency that can be looked to is the federal government and we are in favor of liberal appropriations.” CHURCH LEADER DIES Zanesville, Ohio, Dec. 30.—(?}—Dr. J. Knox Montgomery, 70, president of} Muskingum college at New Concord, | Ohio, died Wednesday of uremic/| poisoning. Dr. Montgomery was moderator of the United Presbyterian church in North America. Buy or Sell Through The Tribune Want Ads | DRY LAWS LIKELY House Expected to Have Choice Between Referendum and Beer Ballot ‘Washington, Dec. 30.—()—One vote on prohibition is all that seems likely lin the house this session, with wet forces having their choice on a refer- ;endum proposal or a light wines and j beer ballot. | That is the way Representative Rainey of Illinois, the Democratic leader sees it. ‘ In his opinion, the house judiciary committee will not report favorably either on a measure calling for a re- ferendum on the eighteenth amend- ment or one for modification of the Volstead Act. “The wets will have to bring the bill to the floor through the petition of 145 members,” he said. “That is the only way in which they can do it. They will have but one vote and that either on a referendum or light wines and beer. They can’t have both. The rules of the house will be so inter- preted.” He said he felt the referendum had the better chance for “getting by” be- cause many drys, himself included, would vote for it. State Fire Marshal In His New Quarters The state fire marshal’s office has moved into its new quarters in the City National Bank building at Fourth and Main. Previously, State Fire Marshal H. L. Reade and his staff made their of- fice at 416% Main St, The new quar- ters are larger and more commodious. pid prea raeG Elks Boxing Card, New Year’s night, 32 rounds. See sports page.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1932 Buttz Is Named to ONLY ONE VOTE ON HOOVER UNDECIDED AS 10 ARMS POLICY President Has Given U. S. Dele- gates to Parley No In- structions As Yet Washington, Dec. 30.—(#)—The almost completed American delega- tion to the Geneva disarmament conference has not yet been told what to do on three important ques- tions which will come up at the parley, The reason is that President Hoover, himself, has not fully made up his mind. Probably foremost, is whether the United States will agree that arms limitation shall be attained by fix- ing the amount of money a nation may spend on its forces. The United States policy has been that armaments should be directly limited. A compromise suggestion is that the reduction should come in com- parison to the amount a nation spent in previous years and not by comparing its expenditures with other nations. Whether to attempt to restrict aerial fighting forces also is getting detailed study by the tration. The American attitude on whether an armament treaty should contain a provision which would allow its signers to waive their agreement if threatened by preparations by a non-signatory nation is also yet to be determined. . The naming of Norman H. Davis, former undersecretary of state, by the president Tuesday brought the number of delegates chosen to five. 0 PURCHASE SEED drought losses last summer and fall, not harvesting enough grain for Spring seeding.
