House Approves Heart of Tax Bill Corporations With Deficits to Have Protection by Rea- son of Amendment fashington, April 28.—(?)—The house Tuesday gave tentative a: to the heart of the new tax bill—a system of rates to apply to corpora- tion incomes graduated according to proportions of earnings withheld from distribution to stockholders. signed to give more favorable treat- ment to corporations with deficits, ‘was accepted'by a voice vote, without a single negative vote. Proposed by Chairman Samuel B. Hill (Dem.-Wash.), of the ways and means tax subcommittee, it would re- duce from 22% to 15 per cent the rate corporations would pay on portions of their income needed to meet deficits. Authorized by Committee The full committee, just before the house assembled, had authorized Hill to offer the amendment. He was in- structed, also, to submit an amend- ment intended to wipe out a $100,000,- 000 lag in revenue in the first year of the bill's operation. That, too, was accepted on a voice vote. As now written, the bill, which was estimated to raise $803,000,000, would permit a lag by reason of the fact that corporation dividends paid out of 1936 income in part might be declar- ed in the first two and a half months of 1937 and not taxed in the hands of stockholders until they filed income tax returns in 1938. The amendment, Hill said, will in effect, require corporations to antic- ipate last quarter earnings and de- clare out dividends during the last quarter without actual figures on in- come for the period. May Vote Wednesday Speaker Byrns said at his press conference it was possible a vote could be reached on the bill by Wed- nesday night. A billion dollar substitute for the administration's $803,000,000 tax bill was being drafted Tuesday by Senator King, of Utah, Democratic member of the senate finance committee. A critic of the Roosevelt program for revising corporation taxes, King would substitute for it a bill designed to raise $1,000,000,000 by increasing the rates in the present income and Monday night Republicans in the house decided to concentrate their opposition to the bill in a virtual mass vote against it when the rollcall tax bill introduced in congress the Civil war.” The he , would carry Bismarck Firms Low garry Construction com- pany, both of Bismarck, with a joint $263,938.31, presented low fig- the Starving Parents Sell Children to Obtain Money for Food Purchase ESTIMATES OF DEAD VARY Repeated Floods Plus Dry Sum- mers Cause of Appalling Conditions Chungking, Szechwan Province, China, April 28. — (% — A terrible famine sweeping Szechwan and North Honan provinces assumed the propor- dons of national disaster Tuesday with estimates of the number of na- tives dead or facing death ranging from 10,000,000 to 30,000,000, X Chinese vernacular newspapers re- ported that some hunger-maddened victims were resorting to cannibalism and that other starving parents were selling their children to gain money for food. The appalling conditions were at- tributed to repeated floods, followed by unusually dry summers, and to successive disastrous incursions by Chinese Communist soldiers who have swept the country like a plague of locusts in the last two years, Reds Terrorize Country Bands of armed men, numbering from 1,000 to 5,000 are roving the countryside, terrorizing, plundering, kidnaping and killing. While millions of Chinese are fac- ing certain death from starvation, other millions are suffering “defici- ency” disease which American and other missionary doctors say must lead inevitably to death. Quake Rocks Province Chungking Szechwan province, a city, surrounded by a countryside in is ereayeaed starvation, was shaken earthquake caused only small damage in the city, but the alarm was great. The area of the quake was believed te extend throughout West Chins, over Szechwan and Kansu provinces where there was no way of determin- ing immediately how great the dam- age may have been. The shock followed one which, oc- curring Monday, hit Tachienlu on the Tibetan border. It was the worst recorded in many years. Three Separate Columns Par- ticipate in Climactic Ma- neuver of Conflict NATIVE TROOPS FAR AHEAD Tortuous Highway Distance to Addis Ababa Estimated at 262 Miles ite Rome, April 28.—(7)—Italy’s victor- lous northern army drove directly south Tuesday toward Ankober, mid- way point between Dessye and Addis Ababa, on the third day of its major advance against Ethiopia’s capitol. The advance guard was believed to be already at least half way down the imperial highway to Addis Ababa.

And later, the waiter coming to tell her that “her grandmother” wished her to take supper in the alcove. And in the alcove there was Dix, the tawny-headed singer. “Hello, Red-dress,” he said. “I didn’t know any other way to get you away from that mob and I wanted to know you. I'm Dix— Dixon Cobb Carter. Will you have some chicken salad?” That was the way it began. Linda had some definite ideas about how she hoped it would end. Where she didn’t care. The farthest corner of the earth in a canvas tent would be all right with her, so long as it was at the end:of a life spent with him. Linda, on her way home from her errand at the Newtown Blade office, .| turned into her own street—and her dreaming came to an end abruptly. It was the appearance of her own home that startled her. The big house was ablaze with lights; the drive was filled with cars, yet only silence came from the house, and there were strangers standing on the wide porch. * * * Afterwards she couldn't remember who took her aside, telling her to be brave, to remember that her father could not have been in his right mind and-+finally—that he was dead by his own hand. And whem she had escaped to her own room, she stared at herself in the mirror, shamed that she could not cry, yet realizing that she could not be untrue to herself. Linda Bourne did not love her father. She had tried to all those years when the mother she faintly remembered had gone away with another man, leaving the tiny Linda alone in the big house with Calvin Bourne. Linda thought of her mother then, and what manner of girl she must have been. She tried to picture her, here in the room that for so long had her little world, A loveless world here once Linda had pretended that dolls loved her and asked her to them and love them always. No in all her life had asked for her had friends. She was popular. anges wel rode‘ sell playa: & Hd geet good game of tennis and golf, She was an “organizer,” a committee girl. That was the life she led as leader of the little set that constituted young society in Newtown, The light went out of the sky and Linda sat in the dark in that house ot tragedy, forlorn in the thought that there was no one to think of her with sincere kindness and sorrow. Her world would be shocked, but it lacked tenderness. One man was thinking of her... Pete Gardiner, alone in the city room of the Newtown Blade, puffing lazily on a@ battered pipe, contem- plated his long legs, draped on an editorial desk, and thought of the girl who had been there a short time before. Point by point, Pete Gardiner, ace Political reporter in the state by his own admission, reviewed his ap- praisal of the president of the local Junior League, daughter of the town’s leading mill owner and leader of a set that had not yet discovered him. Pete knew girls, but not as many as would like to have known him, He had never known any like Linda. The Gardiners, mother and son, had lived on the wrong side of town ever since Mrs, Gardiner, newly widowed, had put up the little sign that read “Plain Dressmaking.” They still lived on the wrong side of town, but in compara- tive luxury now; Pete made $40 @ week, eet Forty dollars wouldn't seem like much to a girl like Linda Bourne, Pete thought wryly. Not that it made any difference. If he were going to be interested in any girl if wouldn't be one like her. His dream girl, faintly resembling Dietrich, Harlow, and Madge Evans, floated through his mind, and he compared her with Linda as he re- membered her. He wouldn't call Linda “pretty,” but she had some- thing. She would have her moments of breathless beauty, he thought, re- membering the glow of an inner radiance that filled her gray eyes and it up the features of her heart-shaped face. He remembered the sweetness of her mouth that was too large for prettiness, And he remembered the way her dark hair clung to her small head, escaping in tendrils curled like shadows on’ her cheek.

The administration spokesman ad- dressed the convention of the Cham- ber of Commerce of the United States. His speech was regarded by his au- dience as bearing White House ap- proval. The commerce secretary said “busi- ness should utilize every possible channel of approach that will result in the most effective cooperation be- tween business and government.” Immediately preceding Roper, Har- per Sibley, chamber president, called for cooperative alliance between government and business to cure the unemployment malady. Roper’s Program Roper’s 10-point program: 1, “Business should survey its own needs and its own conditions from the viewpoint of employing as many per- sons as current improvements and future programs demand. (The chamber announced Monday it would survey the country to see how many jobs are available and how to fill them.) “2. As improvements in productive efficiency are secured, business should pass on to the consumer the benefits of the lower costs of production which result. “3. Business should form . . . indus- trial committees to study ... tech- for speeding up other fields ... of workers replaced by Urges Replacements “4. Business should stimulate the durable goods industries by early ac- tion that will provide for capital goods and machinery due t0 obsolescence, depreciation, and other causes. “5, Business should develop effece tive... home building programs, prie vately financed and aggressive endeavors to expand our foreign trade ... and especially in cooperation with the administration’s reciprocal trade agreement program. “7, Business should have a research program ... for the purpose of in- forming business on a long term use- ful public works plan looking to the coordination of proper national, state, local and private endeavors.

Dickinson, making his statement on the senate floor yesterday, placed the responsibility on the administration and assailed what he called the Roose- velt “scarcity” program. Senator Copeland (Dem. N. ¥.) said better food needed, then declared: “Destroying millions of hogs forced millions of people to go hungry. As the logical, the inevitable of this deliberate and for the first time, we have living on food unfit for even dogs to eat.” The Iowan said the annual produc: bad been i at 500, cent of the output for it among the poos. wu La ¥
