THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TU#SDAY, APRIL 21, 1936 i 4 | PLANNIGAN AWAITS 1 REPORT ON FRAZIER ROAD SHOOTING ROW: Williams States Attorney Also Marks Time Pending Word From Flannigan W. J. Flannigan, state highway commissioner, said Tuesday he would take no action regarding Roy W. Frazier, highway maintenance engi- neer at Williston, who county officials | claimed fired on motorists last week, until he has received a report from Keith Boyd, divisional engineer at! Williston. Commissioner Flannigan will be un- able to make a personal investigation because of the press of official busi-| ness, he said. He will attend the fed- eral-state conference at Fargo Wed-/ nesday and will preside at opening of | bids for highway projects here Fri- day. { States Attorney Walter Burk at) ‘Williston said he would not start any action against Fraizer until Commis- sioner Flannigan had investigated the case. He said if any complaint was pushed against Frazier the engineer would be charged with “unlawful dis- charge of a firearm in a public place.” Boyd said States Attorney Burk stated he would seek Frazier's re- moval from the Williston division and would press charges if Stanley Haus- teveit, Tioga farmer, would file a com- Pplaint. Hausteveit Sree Frazier fired at him near Tioga last week when the former disregarded a road closed sign. “Fraizer is one of the best mainten- ance engineers in the service,” Flan- nigan stated.

TAXES AND RELIEF GET RIGHT-OF-WAY | WITH GOP GIRDING Republicans to Say No New Taxes Needed If Govern- ment Economizes Washington, April 21.—(4#)—The ‘surge toward adjournment started in congress Tuesday, with house leaders sidetracking everything else to make way for the tax and relief bills. Democrats on the house ways and means committee decided to report the tax bill to the floor Tuesday, with debate slated to begin Wednesday. The measure, containing a revision of the corporation tax structure, origin- ally was ‘drawn to raise $799,000,000 but because of subsequent changes jcommitteemen have refrained from; | predictions about the yield, pending the receipts of official treasury esti- mates, Republicans prepared for a fight. The minority on the ways and means committee was drafting a report which, they hinted, would say that no new taxes would be needed if the government would cut expenses. Hope for Quick Passage But the house leaders hoped to pass the bill next week, and take up the following week President Roose- velt's request for a $1,500,000,000 re- lief appropriation for next year. Administration leaders hoped to wind up the session early in June. The tax plan includes a new type of levy on corporation income, grad- uated according to the percentage 0! profits held in the corporation treas- ury instead of being disbursed as dividends; a “windfall” tax design- ed to capture some of the AAA pro- cessing levies which processors escap- ed paying, levies on foreign stockhold- ers in domestic industries, and other taxes. It does not contain the new system of processing levies which President Roosevelt wants to replace the old AAA taxes stricken out by the su- preme court. See Revenue Decrease An idea of the gap in expected rev- enues, caused by the invalidation of AAA taxes, was given Tuesday when @ treasury report indicated that all internal revenue collections for this fiscal year might be $300,000,000 less than was forecast by the president when he submitted his budget just before AAA’s invalidation. However, collections in all other major tax classifications, as well as the tatal internal revenue, are run- ning ahead of last year. For the nine months ended March 31 (the first nine months of the fiscal year) internal revenue totaled $2,- 659,000,000 or about 7% per cent greater than last year. HOWE'S FUNERAL IN WHITE HOUSE Roosevelt to Accompany Body of Faithful Secretary to Fall River Grave Washington, April 21.—(#)—The st Room of the White House— rich in history of events both sad and happy—Tuesday became a funeral chapel for the last rites to Col.
