A—2 %% SALARY PUBLICITY HELD CLASS WAR Baring of Figures by S. E. C. Opens Way to Wrong Conclusions. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. With the repeal of the “pink sljj form of publicity of income tax re- turns, attention is being directed here to other abuses of privacy which have no worthy public purpose and serve only to intensify class prejudice and misunderstanding. Thus the Securities and Exchange Commisison requires that holdings of individuals in large companies shall be made a matter of record in the reg- istration statements for listing on stock exchanges. The Kresge Co. has just filed the data, but with a protest against the processes of publicity en- veloping this aspect of registration in the last few months. The main purpose of the law, of course, was to enable investors to know the salaries and compensation paid officers of the corporations in which they held stock, and for the relation- hip of officers to stockholdings to be disclosed. System Subject to Abuse. Virtually all the safeguards desired can be obtained in quite another way by requiring the regular annual state- | ments sent tc stockholders to contain all such information.

BY NELSON M. SHEPARD. An overhauling of the housing policy of the Public Works Adminis- tration is in prospect, it was learned today, in the hope of speeding up low- rent housing and slum clearance proj- ects in Washington and throughout the Nation. Two years of almost fruitless efforts to make any considerable headway in this direction have convinced offi- clals, it was said, that drastic changes should be rhade in methods of dealing with local municipaiities under the new program soon to be launched. For this program the work-relief bill has set aside $450.000,000 in addition to the original $150,000,000 housing fund, of which only a small amount has actually been spent. The desired change is in the method of acquiring title to sites for proposed | projects. Officials blame 90 per cent oi the delay in getting housing projects istarted on the problems facing Federal |agents in securing title to urban real |estate. By placing this responsibilit+ | solely on local municipal heads it wa believed the national housing program | would overcome its major obstacle. | Local Condition Cited.

After nearly two years of constant effort on the part of these various agencies officials admit that it has been impossible thus far i announce the acquisition of a low-rent housing site in the District.

The wardrobe includes an evening dress at $15.93 and Summer and Win- ter afternoon dresses at $15.89 and $15.93, respectively. Summer and ‘Winter office dresses are listed at $15.93 and $13.94, and $5.98 for washable Summer dresses. A Spring coat at $32.74 and a Spring suit at $13.98 are shown, but the budgeteers assumed this “typical con- sumer” had a Winter coat, evening wrap and Summer sport coat left over.

DANCER F(SUND DEAD LOS ANGELES, April 11 (#).—Clad in a pink negligee, the body of May- rene Lee, 28, titian-haired stage dancer, was found in her room at an apartment hotel late yesterday by a housekeeper. Hotel attendants told police she was last seen late Monday when she left with a'man and a woman, who were sought for questioning. A visiting card in her room indicated, police said, that her true name is Mrs. Hilliard Vincent MacGowan. Her husband, from whom they said she was sepa- rated, is a construction engineer. An autopsy was ordered. & durable goods and the service in- dustries. The deferred demand for products of each of these in- dustries is carefully calculated, and totals $49,275,000,000.

Apparently. this deferred demand was calculated by estimating what the consumers have not bought since 1930, as based on what they were buying before. Suggests Changes. The book wants the President to remove the “excessive liability” fea- ture of the securities exchange act. It holds that the law needs other minor corrections which are holding back new financing. It counsels im- proved facilities for instaliment sales, opening of the mortgage markets on a long-term base, reorganization of the real estate mortgage structure. Concluding, it says: “We strongly recommend that the managers of the Nation who are now temporarily in the discard in the consideration of the basic problems of recovery be drafted in this war for recovery.” These are the things which other am»;au and some of the plans is accepted in formidable New Deal A for consideration of social security bill.
