PRESIDENT IS DUE HOME ON TUESDAY Visits Port-of-Spain Today for Last Stop of Cruise. BY the Associated Press. PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad, De- eember 11.—President Roosevelt landed at Port-of-Spain today for a four- hour visit before starting the last lap of his trip homeward. He came ashore at 10:40 a.m. {from the cruiser Indianapolis after receiv- ing newspaper men and officials aboard the ship. The President declined to comment on the abdication of King Edward, & subject Which occupied most of the|® front-page space in the newspapers of this British-owned island, forcing accounts of Mr. Roosevelt's visit to inside pages. The United States Executive was scheduled to depart this afternoon for Charleston, 8. C,, after being given & luncheon at the Government House and taking a motor tour of the island. Mr. Roosevelt planned to reach Charleston, 8. C., early next Tuesday and Washington that night, Inaugural (Continued From First Page.) presidential reviewing stand and Court of Honor in front of the White House will be held in abeyance. Grayson said the President, prior to departure for Buenos Aires, expressed preference for an extremely simple ceremony, with a parade “of sorts.” Before any further action is taken on inaugural arrangements, Grayson said, he wishes to see whether Mr. Roose- velt has changed his mind as to the scope of the program. The President has been advised of popular demand for a celebration on a grand scale. There will be no appointments of eommittee members pending return of the President. Selection of a com- mittee headquarters also will await Mr. Roosevelt's arrival here. Grayson jestingly told reporters he had consulted the Hagerstown Alma- nac and was pleased to learn that January 20, the new inaugural date, will be clear. Grayson has been reluctant to take on added responsibilities because of pressure of his duties as chairman of the American Red Cross, but Presi- dent Roosevelt has been insistent that Grayson reconsider his first inclina- tion to refuse the chairmanship. Following a conference with Vice President Garner at the Capitol yes- terday Admiral Grayson and Mcln- tyre returned to the White House and discussed the inaugural problem be- hind closed doors. Conference (Continued From First Page.) income, should be the source of tax- &ion, the committee said. During the same session, another committee recommended enactment of legislation by Congress to provide for the taking of an employment census every five years and less extensive pe- riodic checks in the intervening years. This committee set forth a list a definition of employment, employ- ability and other factors which would be used in guiding the census takers. ‘The committee suggested that the task be undertaken by an established governmental agency. Committee Tax Report. In its tax report, the committee de- elared that “inequalities, duplications, conflicts and grave injustices to tax- payers” have been woven into the tax structure in the search for new revenue. Such conditions, the com- mittee said, constitute “a serious bur- den upon private enterprise, employ- ment and the consumptive capacity of the market.” The proposed study should be under- taken, the committee said, with a view to: “Determining the deterrent effect of present taxes upon enterprise and em- ployment. “Recommending such changes as will produce the maximum tax revenue with the minimum burden on industry and the consuming public, and by making that part of income which is least useful in promoting private en- terprise and employment bear the greatest tax burden, and by taxing income rather than the source of in- come.” Secretary Perkins Speaks. Commending a growing spirit of co-operation on the part of employ- ers, workers and farmers, Secretary of Labor Perkins earlier predicted that “the upward swing of recovery” will be continued. The Government, she said, will stand by to aid in ac- complishing the objective. The Secretary appeared before an executive session of the council, where the principal order of business was the digestion of seven committee re- ports of last Spring on such major controversial issues as maximum work week, child labor, fair trade practices, anti-trust laws and Government com- petition with private enterprise. From all these the closed sessions of today were hoping to hammer out & general legislative program to be pressed \upon Congress by a special committee of the council. Urges Survey of Needs. Miss Perkins brought a new plea to the industrialists present at the session this morning in the form of an appeal to them to survey their employment needs, .particularly with & view to placing men over 40 and heads of families. “All too frequenty,” she said, “the experience and ability of the older man is passed by in favor of an in- experienced and not properly trained ;“h-wnzer" worker.
