* VETERANS' HOMES FACE GROWING NEED World War Men Reduce Age Average of Dependents to 34 Years. By the Associated Press. In ‘increasing numbers they come each year, men who call for help from the Government for which they dared death 12 years ago.. Younger now are the men who seek the haven of the soldiers’ homes than the veterans of other wars who asked for help. The contrast of the changing age was uncovered today by the Bureau of Na- tional Homes, whose records shows the steadily mounting total of World War vetcrans, unable to gain a livelihood, who knock at the doors of the homes. A peculiar note of public psychology lies wrapped in this change, said Col. | C. W. Wadsworth, the director. Once, & man who became such a ward was ranked a pauper; his family kept his ‘whereabouts secret. 3 { ‘Today, there is an eagerness evident in the attitude of both the veterans and their relatives, Col. Wadsworth ex- plained. “From 1921 to 1927 the total popu- lation of the 11 branches of the na- tional homes averaged throughout the year from 12,500 to 14,000. In the fiscal year ending last July, it had leaped to 19,518, and on November 30, this year, there were 23419 inmates, with 5,489 on leave, a total of 28,908.” Until 1925, he said, the majority ‘within the homes were Civil War vet- erans. The next year, the .Spanish- American War veterans and the Civil War class were equal. In 1927, the World War veterans jumped into the lead—averaging in age arcund 38. ‘The average age today is around 34, and World War veterans account for nearly 70 per cent.

Inequality of the Federal tax as compared Wprden | States with the burden of government. with political powers of | It is not only the District of Columbia the District of Columbia and of the States was deplored last night by Rép~ resentative James M: Beck of Pennsyl- vania and Theodore W. Noyes, |- habitants. Speaking at the annual banquet of the association, at the Raleigh Hotel, Representative Beck took issue with Senator Borah's proposal to increase taxes on the higher brackets, charging that this would lay heaviest burdens on the few States already large burden of Federal taxation. He warned that continued imposition of such taxes without a more equitable distribution. among the ulation was in violation of the principle of the American Government, and might lead some day to “serious internal dis- order.” He charged tha$ Senator Bo- rah’s State of Idaho was paying only about one-five-thousandth of the Fed- eral taxes. Mr. Beck emphasized that he favored in principle an income tax. But he de- clared that big increases on the higher brackets would further disturb the theo- retical balance which the founding fathers of the country attempted to aml{e1 between the “political power and taxation.” ‘The voteless plight of the District of Columbia, paying more Federal taxes than each of 25 States and more than the total taxes of 10 States combined, wn;mltresud hylvnux: Noyézxsl. i purpose in presenting the figures, Mr. Noyes said, was not to discredit small contributors to the National ry, but “to convince the Repre- sentatives of small contributing con- stituencies in the States that they should not berate their National Capi- tal constituents, whose legislative inter- ests are intrusted to their care by the Constitution. Inequalities of Taxation. Representattve Beck in opening his discussion of taxation pronounced Mr. Noyes’ annual address as president of the association as “very remarkable,” and declared his figures “far exceeded anything I had expected.” The Penn- sylvania Representative asked for Mr. Noyes’ address to read it into the Con- gressional Record. He asserted that Mr. Noyes' con- tentions comprised part of a larger problem which might some day lead to serious “consequences.” Referring back to the, principles in- corporated into the American Govern- ment by its founders, Mr. Beck stated that a few patriotic States had for the Revolutionary War while others refused to pay or had paid but trifling amount. These latter States nevertheless . benefited from the Revo- lution, he explained, and there nat- urally Constitutional Convention, he stated, were to take away the powers of the individual States in interstate commerce in order to es- tablish freedom of trade, and, second, to establish a system whereby the Statés should contribute in an equit- able degree to the new central govern- ment. There was much debate over this, he said, and finally the provision the Constitution au- tion. pointed Adoption of the income tax, the rule of apportion- out, elimi to | ment which would fairly distribute ths burdens of government and fairly equal- ize the privileges of exercising political power with the power of raising money. Borah's Statement Recalled. ‘The three States of New York, Penn- sylvania and Illinois pay more than half of the whole total of direct taxes, including the income tax and miscel- laneous taxes, Mr. Seck pointed out. Recalling the recent statement of Senator Borah, who is in favor of an v | increase in income taxes, especially in the higher brackets, to meet & threat- ened deficit in the Federal Treasury, ER | Mr. Beck said he looked up the taxes pald by Mr. Borah's State of Idaho and found them to be “only $860,000” for one fiscal year, or only one-forty-five hundredth of the amount New York contributed. OnAem of these d'{:’;fil‘““m‘ Be‘c'”k “the ] peopl get onto it.” ‘The -m charged that most of the people today had “moving picture brain,” filled with sports, foot ball, mov- ing pictures and such a multitude of ts | interests that they had “lost the facul- a sion. “New York pays about one-third, and Idaho pays :bm;t one-five thou- Premium on Extravagance. “The people are not aware of it.

Mr. Beck also reminisced about his early experiences in Washington and praised especially Prenden: McK::l:i and President Harding as two m “natural kindly bent.” President Hard- , he sald, his friends, * * * but everything he did was with an eye single to his God and to_his country.” Referring to criticism directed against President Harding since his death, Mr. Beck declared with some show of real feeling: “It's a pity, as there are some regulations to keep curs out of ceme- teries, there are no regulations to keep curs from feeding on the memories of public men.” ‘The city of Washington, Mr. Beck predicted, would have a future to “stag- ger the imagination.” The destinies of the western world, he forecast, “are go- ing to be more influenced here in this city on the Potomac than anywhere else.” Commissioners Speak.

PRESIDENT’'S ADDRESS. Mr. Noyes Outlines the Three Goals of the Association’s Fight. Mr. Noyes spoke as follows: “‘On the occasion of its 65th birthday the Association of Oldest Inhabitants, from venerable and venerated centena- rian Saxton to the 50-year-old baby member of yesterday, tenders its warm- nulghl':emlut greetings to its guests to- “Our association fights to win for Washington (1) Political equity; (2) Financial equity, and (3) Physical and spiritual health and beauty. “Political equity means voting- rep- resentation in Congress and the Elec- toral College for the 300,000 potential Yvoters in the District who are now vote- less. It means, politically, promotion of the District residents of voting age from the class of the convict and the lunatic to that of American sovereigns. “Today’s threat against fair play is leveled specifically at financial equity. “In the short time devoted to the so- called annual address I am not going to weary my hearers with detalls of non. thrilling ~ figures which _demonstrate that the Was lan’s municipal tax burden, when uitable just- ments are applied to the calculations, is heavier than that of such cities as Bal timore, New Orleans, St. Louis, Indian apolis and Minneapolis, and should not, ::cept as an unavoidable necessity, be ‘Nor will T im “Nor pose upon you the somewhat familiar - statistics which | demonstrate that a lump sum priation of nine or nine and m:m millions by the Nation for Capital maintenance and development is in- adequate in amount as well as unsound in principle, Attention Invited to Figures. “But there are some illumkutlnf fg- ures recently reported the collector of Internal Revenue which have a vi- tally important bearing upon the equi- tles under discussion before the House Special Fiscal Relations Committee and in committee rooms on Capitol Hill in the framing of the District appropria- tions bill. And to these figures I in- vite your interested attention. “For the fiscal year 1930 the Capital community contributed property taxes, water and gas taxes, and in mis. cel revenues considerably over JN the matter of infant feeding, your physi- cian should be consulted and his advice accepted and carefully followed.

This lump sum appropriation (indeed the national contribution toward Capital develop- ment in any and every form) has been described as a gratuity, beggars' alms, money wrung from the scanty earnings of the Congressman’s outraged con- stituent to ease the tax burdens of the mendicants, tax-dodgers and robbers of the District of Columbia. This unde- d‘mu’i v:'lt(lncntlon has aroused a preju- ce in the House against the District which it is hard to eradicate. “"The report to the collector of Inter- nal Revenue discloses the contributors to these national taxes and the amounts of their respective contributions. “The only national taxes that fall di- rectly and unmistakably and in ascer- tainable amounts upon Americans are their internal revenue taxes, and they constitute three-fourths of Uncle Sam's total receipts. The collector’s Teport for 1930 shows that the District, paid in these taxes in that year $15,724,675.72, and that 25 (more than half) of the States contributed less than the Dis- trict to the Treasury in internal Teve- nue taxes. These States are as follows: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Georgla, Idaho, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippl, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, x“n’l“ghmmn' West Virginia and Wyo- ng. Nearly Equal 10 States Combined. “Ten States combined contributed to these national taxes only a trifle more than the District alone. These States are: Arizona, Idaho, Mississippi, Mon- tana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Da- kota, South Dakota, Vermont and ‘Wyo- ming, whose combined internal revenue tax payments aggregate $15,774,342.99, to be compared with the District’s con- Lrl‘t]utlon of $15,724,675.72. These 10 States are represented in mm by z_gh semmr- and 21 Rep- ves. The total re n of. _tr}ll: lg;‘s:flct is 0. o “The District’s per capita contribu- tion to these national taxes is $32.29. In per capita contribution only five States of the Union exceed the Dis- trict. These States are Delaware, Tlli- nois, New York, North Carolina and Virginia. Of all the other 43 States the average citizen contributes less than the average Washingtonian, “The Washingtonian's per capita contribution to the Treasury in in- ternal revenue taxes ($32.29) exceeds the combined per capita contribution of the following States: Alabama ($3.71), Arkansas Georgia ($4.31), Mississippi ($1.04), Nebraska ($4.14), ($2.16), North Dakota ($.81), South Carolina ($1.74), ;'H;"Il:b Dakota “cle'“)'wy;m“ “::'fi:\l)' an aggregate per capita contribu- tion of $30.04. In other words, one ‘Washingtonian contributes more than the combined contributions of one Ala- baman, one Arkansan, one Georgian, one Idahoan, one Mississippian, one Montanan, one Nebraskan, one New Mexican, one North Dakotan, one South Carolinian, one South Dakotan and one Wyomingite, 12 in all, from States with 24 Representatives in the Senate and 62 Representatives in the House, where the District has no rep- resentation at all. Contributions Compared. “The national internal revenue taxes are used to pay not only the nine or nine and one-half millions of lump sum payment toward Capital maintenance the mill | and development, but lions pent in the d program of nation: Y ppears that in na- m expenditures for all these pur- poses the Washingtonian’s per capita contribution exceeds those of 43 Statea “Let us compare the District’s con- | States tribution with that of some typical State. braska has two Senators and six Re] resentatives in Congress (one of the most influential in some respects of the State delegations) where the District has none. The internal revenue figures show that the District with something more than one-third of Nebraska's population pays in these national taxes something less than three times as much as Nebraska, and that in per capita calculations the average Wash- ingtonian pays nearly eight times as much as the average Nebraskan. In other words, the average Washingtonian contributes more than seven Nebraskans and nearly as much as eight Nebras- kans toward the nine and one-half millions lump sum for National Capital maintenance. The Washingtonian pays into the fund from which the salary of the Nebraskan's Representative i paid nearly eight times as much as the Nebraskan Representative's voting con- stituent. 3 “It is not intended in presenting these figures to suggest that the States or citizens contributing most per capita to the internal revenue tax or other national taxes should on that account have any weightier voting power in respect to the disposition of the na- tional revenues than those States and those citizens whose contrjbutions to the national taxes are ccnparatively speaking infinitesimal; and it is not intended to discredit in any way the small contributors to the national taxes, or even to argue in denial of the lat- ter’s claim that it is more virtuous not o contribute than to contribute to in- ternal revenue taxes derived from cigars, cigarettes, distilled liquors, play- ing cards and especially from the- taxes imposed upon the bloated incomes of those picturesquely described as “male- factors of great wealth.” District Heavily Taxed, “The sole purpose is to convince the Representatives of small-contributing constituencies in the States that they should not berate their National Capi- tal constituents (whose legislative in- terests are entrusted to their care by the Constitution), on the ground that the latter are untaxed or under-taxed men- dicants supported by the tax money un- Justly drawn from their local constitu~ ents; first, because in s0 many cases these contributions by their constituents to the national taxes are infinitesimal, far less than those made by the Dis- trict itself; second, because the District instead of bel untaxed or under- taxed, is reasonably, and, owing to the peculiar local conditions, even heavily taxed, both in municipal and in na- tional taxation. “In developing the Nation's City the Washingtonians are by far the largest contributors among Americans. They contribute on both the local and the national side of the account. They are out of the Union only when rflhu, privileges, powers and bounties are dis- tributed. They are very much in the Union when the burdens of national taxation and military sérvice are im- posed. They pay in one way and an- other approximately three-fourths the expenses of the municipality; and they are comparatively heavy contributors to the internal revenue taxes from whici the national funds are derived that meet the other quarter. In municipal con- tributions and national taxes they pay over one hundred dollars er capita for every man, woman and child in the District. 1ney are the only Americans who have absolutely nothing to say au- thoritatively concerning the collection and disposition of the funds to which they are such large contributors. “On the other hand, in the expendi- tures of the national money to which the District contributes on equal terms, the United States has in many respects failed to be equitable toward the Capi- tal. It has distributed money and land (which were as much the property of the people of the Capital as of any other Americans) among the States and Territories, and ignored entirely the national District. These donations include approximately two hundred millions of acres of public lands and many hundred millions of dollars. “In the fiscal year 1929 the 25 States which paid in_internal revenue taxes less than the District drew in subven- tlons from the Treasury over one hun- dred million dollars. ~ Five of these States took from the Treasury than they contributed in internal reve- nue taxes, and two of them drew out more than twice the amount put in.

Out of a broader understanding be- tween the English-speaking peoples of Great Britaln and the United States Wwill grow a “broad, common feeling of freedom and peace of infinite benefit to the world,” the British Ambassador, Sir Ronald Lindsay, told members of the English-speaking Union at their annual dinner at the Willard Hotel last evening. Understanding through a common language can go a great way toward keeping in harmony and friendship the great mass of les that make up the two great English-speaking nations, the envoy declared. Introduced by McClelland. Sir Ronald was introduced by the new president of the union, Col. George B. M. McClelland. America was pictured as particularly in need of the understanding and friendship of other nations, by reason of its position as the creditor nation of the world, by George W. Wicker- sham, chairman of the National Law Enforcement Commission and one of the first members of the English-speak- ing Union. Following a humorous vein throughout most of his talk, Mr. Wick- ersham expressed the view that the United States has greater obligation than any other nation to “understand” and be friendly with other governments, 250 Guests Present. A brief talk also was made by Alex- ander W. Weddell, new president of the Virginia branch of the English-speaking Union. About 250 guests were present.
