DENIES INCREAS INUSE OF ALGOHOL Mrs. Roosevelt Laughs at Capt. Gaston’s Charges Before Bible Class. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt today laughed aside charges made yesterday that more alcohol is now being con- sumed by guests at the White House than for many years past. Mrs. Roosevelt, speaking at a press conference, had reference to an ad- dress made yesterday by Capt. Edward Page Gaston, American founder of the ‘World Prohibition Federation, before the Box Bible Class of Emory Metho- dist church. Rum Reported Received. Capt. Gaston had said that he un- derstood that “a consjgnment of St. Croix rum has been presented to Presi- dent and Mrs. Roosevelt, Cabinet snd other officials for dispensing to their visitors, as a gesture to encourage the use of this potent beverage by the American people.” Rum consignments may have been received at the executive mansion, Mrs. Roosevelt told her press confer- ence, but added shat she wasn't even aure how rum should be used. Capt. Gaston concluded from his in- formation that “parents of debutantes and other young people may now ex- pect their offspring to arrive home from smart official and other parties in an additionally befuddled condi- tion.” Mrs. Roosevelt, however, said she doubted if anybody would arrive home from the White House in even & “slightly befuddled” condition. ‘Wine Use Increase Denied. Bhe also expressed the belief that Do more wine is being served ag the Executive Mansion than at any tim sine the repeal of prohibition. The President's wife faces a busy day tomorrow, with a small luncheon at the White House to be followed | by an inspection of the Goodwill In- dustries at 2:30 p.m.; a reception for the Children of the American Revos lution at the White House at 3:30 p.m., a brief address at the fiftieth anniver- sary celebration of the Young Women's Christian Home at 4:30 p.m., and at- tendance at opening exercises at the Police Boys Club for colored youths, 1200 U street, at 5:30 p.m. She will begin a series of radio hgoadcasts at 7:15 pm. Wednesday, and next week will fill lecture engage- ments at Hartford and Scranton. RS B ARMY TO LEND SCOUTS EQUIPMENT FOR CAMP War Department Authority Given in Bill Signed by President.

PURPOSE—To substitute for present tax on intangible property. AFFECTS—AIl locally derived corporation income and personal incomes of $1,000 or over for single persons; of $2,500 or over for married persons. Would exempt Congressmen and other Federal officials elected or appointed for stated terms who are not residents This is the fourth and final ar- ticle of a series of four on the local income tar. Yesterday’s article discussed some of the complica- tions in collecting of the local in- come tax resulting from conditions peculiar to the District of Colum- bia. Today’s article discusses pro- posed District of Columbia rates. | substitute for the intangible tax law now in effect and is based on a rate structure taxing both indi- viduals and corporations. ‘These rates run from 1 to 5 per cent for individuals on a graduated scale. Corporations are taxed 5 per cent. Generally the bill would levy a heavier burden on both individuals and comporations than most of the State imcome taxes. Estimates are that it would produce a revenue of about $6,00(,000, sub- stantially higher than the intangible , which has been producing more n $1,000,000 annually since 1922. Last year this tax produced $2,147,000. Proponents of the income tax claim that, despite the fact it is a perfect example of double taxation, it is a fair ta, similar to that now levied by 34 States of the Union, and would be very productive. By taking a tax from incomes which already are taxed by the Federal Government it is really double taxation of the most direct sort. No credit is allowed locally for Fed- eral income tax payments. Higher Than Virginia Law. The rate structure in the new Dis- trict income tax law is higher than that of nearby Virginia and is higher than most of the States, but of course 1s lower than that of the Pederal Gov- ernment. Exemptions include $1,000 for a single person, which is the same as that in the Federal and Virginia State income taxes; $2,500 for a married person living with husband or wife, or a single person who is the head of a family, which is the same as the Fed- eral law but higher than the $2,000 exemption in Virginia. The exemption for dependents under 18 years of age is $300 each, a figure which falls half way between the $400 in the Federal and $200 in the Virginia laws. If a husband and wife make separate re- turns, or have separate incomes, the HE pending District of Columbia income tax bill is designed as a | exemption for each in the District would be $1,000, a total of only $2,000, as contrasted with $2,500 allowed by Federal exemption for such a case. Boy Scouts attending the world Jamboree, to be held here late in June, will be able to borrow equip- ment for theis camp to be located in | Potomac. | Authority for the War Department | to lend this equipment was made possible in a bill signed by the Presi- | dent today. This bill also authorizes the commissioner of internal revenue to remit the tax on steamship tickets, purchased by Boy Scouts attending the jamboree and also authorizes the | Becretary of State to issue passports to bona fide Scouts and Scouters with- out fee. iy FOUND.

A DEAL FUNERAL AT $75 The Collins bill is the latest of sev- eral District of Columbia income tax measures which have been introduced in Congress over a period of several years. The new bill is more like the recent Mapes bill but varies in some particulars from that measure. Who Files Returns. Returns must be filed by individuals having a net income for the “taxable year” of $1,000 or over if single, or if married and not living with husband or wife, and by every individual hav- ing a net income of $2,500 or over if married and living with husband or wife, and by every individual having a gross income for the taxable year of $5,000 or over, regardless of the amount of his net income. The tax structure provides as fol- lows: On net income not over $2,000, & tax of 1 per cent. On net income between $2,000 and $5,000, & tax of 1%% per cent. On net income between $5,000 and $10,000, a tax of 2 per cent. On net income between $10,000 and $15,000, a tax of 2% per cent. Between $15,000 and $20,000, s tax of 3 per cent. Between $20,000 and $30,000, tax of 312 per cent. Between $30,000 4 per cent. And over $50,000, tax of 5 pet cent. This compares to the following in- dividual income tax by the State of Virginia: On net income not over $3,000, tax of 13, per cent. ’ Between $3,000 and $5,000, 214 per cent. ® All over $5,000, 3 per cent. Rates—Federal and Local. The Federal individual income tax starts at 4 per cent for the normal tax on all over $1,000 net for single persons and $2,500 for married, and then jumps to a “surtax” on all net income over $4,000. This surtax is on a graduated scale, on top of the 4 per cent, which is figured first on the total income. The surtax runs from 4 per cent up to 75 per cent on all net income over $5,000,000 a year. This makes the total top rate of both nor- mal and surtax 79 per cent. A member of Congress living in Virginia would file his income tax in March for the Federal Government and escape both the District of Co- lumbia or Virginia tax. A Federal employe not exempt or an employe of private business living in the District of Columbia having a net income of $5,000 before personal exemption would first file his Federal income tax return in March, taking 8 personal exemption of $2,500 for and $50,000, tax of E | being married and $400 for a child. He would thus pay a tax at 4 per cent on $2,100 of $84. This same employe "in April then would file his return with the District of Columbia, taking off $2,500 for be- ing married and only $300 for his one child. Under the graduated District tax rate he would pay on the remain- ing $2,200 a tax of $30. D. C. Credit on Va. Tax. If this same $5,000 employe worked here and lived in Virginia, he would have gone through the same procedure as above but would then be faced with filing a return also in Virginia in June. There he would take off $2,000 for being married, $200 for one child, and then find that ht owed the State of Virginia on $2,800 a tax at 1% per cent, of $42. Under the reciprocal provisions between Virginia and the District he would take a credit of the $33 he had previously paid the Dis- ¢ | trict and pay Virginia the difference, or $9. If, however, this same man had earned part of his salary in the Dis- trict and had an income also in Vir- ginia, the amount of tax he would pay to each would have to be propor- tioned by the two, according to their rules of ‘“proportionate” credit and taxation, based on the amount earned in each place. The District individual income tax Provides _ame service as one costing $500. BB T se it e, G8 Alhm- A exi len: n: ~ v rates run higher, however, in the upper brackets than Virginia, the I District bill running to 5 per cent and Virginia to only 3. The District of Columbia corporation tax rate of 5 per cent is 2 per cent higher than the Virginia rate of 3 per cent on the “entire net income of the corporation or portion thereof al- lotable to Virginia.” All corporations here in the District, such as banks, utilities, insurance companies and others, which pay a tax on their gross earnings, gross re- ceipts or premium receipts would be exempt from the new income tax. The local income tax returns must be filed by both individuals and cor- porations in April of each year. One half of the tax is due at the time the return is filed and the second half is due in October. Penalties are pro- vided for failure to file and to pay. Net income is to be computed on the basis of the taxpayer's annual ac- counting period, fiscal or calendar year, but if the taxpayer has no fixed fiscal year the camputation is to be made in a manner fixed by the assessor of the District of Coluiabla, s0 as clearly to reflect income. To determine the net income the bill allows several deductions, such as all interest paid on indebtedness; debts ascertained to be worthless, taxes paid, ordinary and necessary expenses paid during the year in car- rying on business or a profession or occupation, including a reasonable al- lowance for salaries or personal serv- ice actually rendered. Other deductions include certain losses not compensated for by in- surance, a ‘“reasonable allowance for the exhaustion, wear and tear and obsolescence of property used in busi- ness; contributions or gifts of certain kinds, such as religious and charita- ble; dividends or incomes from stocks or interest in any corporation joint stock compeny or association, the in- come of which is assessed elsewhere in the act, and dividends received on shares of corporations doing business here, which are required to pay a tax on gross earnings or gross receipts. Procedure is outlined for astertain- ment of capital gain or loss for the purpose of reporting in the return. A sharp check on salaries and wages actually paid in the District is pro- vided by a system of gaining “informa- tion at the source” from employers, who are required to report to the as- sessor salaries, wages and other com- pensation paid to any person in excess of $1,000 a year. WAITER IS FOUND DEAD IN GAS-FILLED KITCHEN Frank Forde, 63, Is Discovered by Friend Who Narrowly Ee- caped Death. Frank Forde, 63, a waiter at the Mayflower Hotel, was found dead to- day in the gas-fllled kitchen of his home at 2136 O street by Malachy Clavin, 29, of 2147 P street, a friend. Clavin, who had stayed overnight at Forde's home, told police he nar= rowly escaped the fate of his friend. He awakened almost suffocating in the gas-filled house, Clavin asserted. Rushing to the kitchen, he turned off the stove jets and barely managed to reach the street without collapsing. Forde had been dead six or 'seven hours before his body was discovered, physicians said. According to neigh- bors, he had been despondent over poor health. Police said Forde had no relatives in this city. He is said to have owned the house in which he died. —_— South Wales is seeking the es- tablishment of a national park.

MATISON FAMILY Brother and Sister of Slain Boy Targets of Letter Writers. BACKGROUND— Charles Mattson, 10-year-old son of a prominent Tacoma, Wash., doctor, was kidnaped as he played with his brothers and sisters in his home last December 27. One of the most intensive searches in West Coast history followed. Ransom note demanded payment of large sum of money. Body of child was found in thicket mnear Everett, Wash., January 11. Search for kidnap-slayer has continued, but crime is still unsolved, By the Associated Press. TACOMA, Wash., April 19.—Dr. W. W. Mattson, father of slain Charles Mattson, 10, revealed today new threats have been made against mem- bers of his family, but he expressed confidence his son's kidnap-slayer soon would be captured, The father said lives of Muriel, his 15-year-old daughter, and Willfam, 16, his remaining son, have both been threatened. He expressed belief the threats were from “cranks.” In the first interview granted since Charles’ body was found Dr. Mattson disclosed the threats came in the flood of letters delivered at his home every day since the kidnaping. The last, it was learned, was made less than two weeks ago. “They worry Mrs. Mattson,” the pohysician said, “but I am confident j they are simply the work of cranks. Undoubtedly, they re| nt the crim- inal element which ¥alks our streets every day as a potential menace to every family.” 40 G-Men on Scene. He admitted each threatening letter is carefully scrutinized by Federal Bureau of Investigation agents, some 40 of whom are still stationed in Ta- coma. Refusing to disouss actual progress of the hunt for Charles’ killer, he said: “I have great hope we will get a ‘break’ in the search scon and be able to put these murderers out of circula- Apparently certain more than qge person participated in the crime, Dr. Mattson blamed easy parole systems for the kidnaping, and asserted Ta- coma’s lack of police protection was responsible for the selection of his son | as a victim. “Criminals should be treated as we | do medical cases,” he said; “lepers are isolated permanently in leper colonies. | But even a leper is not as dangerous to society as this (kidnaping) type of criminal. You can recognize a leper; but the man who walks unnoticed be- side you in the street may be a criminal. “I believe the men who kidnaped my son watched the house for nearly a week before the crime. It is shame- | ful that Tacoma is not well enough policed to prevent such a crime or to allow capture of the criminals. If officers had been able to isolate the peninsula on which my home is situ- kidnaping, they might have saved only four prowl cars? Police Force Held Too Small. “Criminals know Tacoma's police force is the most undermanned on the coast. the site of two major kidnapings.” Dr. Mattson said he believed the actual kidnaper escaped from the Mattson home down the bluff toward BILITY and RELIABILITY. 2 ke e e e e e e e e ek ke ke dkedkeokokok $50 VALUE._________$150 ated within a few minutes after the ' Charley—but what can you do vn.h‘ That’s why this town has been | LOWEST PRICES FOR FINEST WORK—ESTIMATES ON REQUEST * Rugs and Carpets STORED for the Summer in STEEL STORAGE RACKS, at moderate cost. »* E.

Invasion. BACKGROUND— John L. Lewis’ Committee for Industrial Organization, campaign- ing to organize workers, conducted strikes against General Motors and Chrysler corporations. Activi- ties carried into Canada with call- ing last week of strike against General Motors in Oshawa plant. Plans are advancing among chieftaing for drive to organize Ford Motor Co. workers, in spite of Ford refusal to bargain collec- tively. Ford recently announced great hour and wage concessions to workers. By the Associated Press. OSHAWA, Ontario, April 19.—Spread of the General Motors strike to the United States within a few days was expected by United Automobile Work- ers Union leaders today as Bremier Mitchell Hepburn warned of “more | drastic action” to halt “invasion” of Ontario by the Committee for Indus- trial Organization. It was learned from the union high command that officials expected to| order a walkout from General Motors | plants in the United States unless the Oshawa strike, which has made 3,700 workers idle, is settled. | Leaders of the Automobile Workers Union, an affiliate of the John L. Lewis Committee for Industrial Or- ganization, were known to have dis-|- cussed spreading the strike below the | border yesterday.after the collapse of | Hepburn's second major effort to seb-f tle the walkout with C. I. O. organizars| barred from the negotiations. Say 2 Agreements Are Broken. Union officials said they felt Gen- eral Motors had broken two agree- ments with them in not settling the | Oshawa strike, which entered its| twelfth day today. The first was the February agreement in Detroit that settled . the prolonged Michigan sit- down. The second, union leaders said, was reached last Thursday in Detroit wf cover the Canadian situation. It “GENERAL @) ELECTRIC REPRIGER GLAD YOU BOUGHT A You'LL ALWAYS sk General Eectric Offers the Groatest lo!tl“"“vm was this understanding that formed the basis of the abortive Saturday conference called by Premier Hep- burn and which he charged failed when C. H. Millard, loeal union head, “double crossed” him. Homer Martin, president of the International Union, United Automo- bile Workers of America, declared last night no strike would be called in the United States “tomorrow” after flying to Flirt, Mich., from Oshawa. “There will be no strike,” he said, hesitated and added: “At least not tomorrow.” Hepburn declared he had received “definite knowledge” from police that C. 1 O. organizers were trying to bring on strikes at the International | Nickel mine near Sudbury and in the Kirkland Lake and Porcupine mining areas in Northern Cntario. The government, he said, was keep- ing a close check on George Anderson, C. 1. O. organizer for the mine, mill and smelter workers, and other or~ ganizers and proposed to deal prompt- ly with any difficulties that might de- velop. Any further “invasion” of Ontario by the Lewis organization, Hepburn warned, would bring “more drastic combative action than has been in- stituted to date.” “Let me tell Lewis and his gang here and now that they'll never get their greedy paws on the mines of Northern Ontario as long as I am prime minister.” Col. F. Praser Hunter, in command of the 500 special police recruited by the premier in the last week, said his troops were not intended primarily for use at Oshawa but “for trouble we expect later.” Meanwhile at Timmins, mine, mill and smelter workers last night voiced their support of the walkout at Oshawa after listening to three speeches at a | mass meeting held under auspices of | YOU BUY SEE THE SHERWOOD OIL BURNER the Committee for Industriaal Organa ization. Hugh Thompson, C. I. O. organizer Whose presence as a “foreign agitator” Hepburn has opposed from the start of the strike, declared the Oshawa strikers now were “really digging in,’* prepared to hold out “all Summer, if necessary.” The strike, which has been marl:ed by peaceful picketing, went into ita twelfth day with no ovtward 3ign of weakening. The men walked out April 8, after the company refused to recognize the U. A. W. as their col- lective bargaining agent, and since the strike started the company has made no effort to operate the plant.
