Sales Tax Issue Looms Among
41 Legislative Fronts In U. S.
@
Additional Relief Burdens Face
State Lawmakers; Seek
New Revenues o~
Chicago, Jananuary 17.--The legisla-
tures of all states, meeting this month
to tap new tax sources for financing
unemployment relief, will give much
consideration to sales tax proposMs, a
survey indicates today.
Sales taxes, now rolling penny by
penny into the coffers of several states.
stand out above a scattering of reve-
nue proposals that range from tax on
each pack of cigarets to a levy on
every employed person's income.
Real Estate Overburdened
The 6,800 lawmakers about to start
the biennial grist through the legisla-
tive mills--more than a third of them
are novices appear to regard a gross
sales tax as the fastest and surest
means of building up flattened treas-
uries. Real estate, they maintain, is
overburdened now.
Where other taxes yield from 50
cents to $1.50 per person the gross
turnover taxes produce an average of
about $3.50 per capita.
The federal government's decision to
place the burden of all unemployables
--those unable to participate in fed-
eral work programs--upon the states
has made reAief financing the big
bogey in virtually all of the legisla-
tive chambers.
Have Other Problems
Subordinate to the issue of relief are
such proposals as:
1.--Revision and strengthening of
liquor control and taxation.
2.--Reduction of local government
costs and abolishing of overlapping
authority.
3.--Perfection of state and interstate
cr~me control.
4.--Raising new funds for public
school maintenance ahd bond require-
ments.
5.---Old age pension and unemploy-
ment insurance.
WINS HONORS
Milton Rue
Because he obtained 126 members for
the American Legion during the con-
test period from December 15 to De-
cember 31, Milton Rue. Bismarck. will
be awarded an official Legion uniform,
it was announced at Fargo Wednes-
day. The prize for first honors in the
membership race was offered by Harry
Rosenthal, Bismarck, grand chief de
gare of the 40 and 8. John Hoehn,
Valley City, took second honors.
Judges of the contest were C. T. Hal-
vorson, Minot, Jack Williams, Fargo,
and John Kennelly, Mandan.
Never Heard of Lindbergh
Laughs Creep Into Murder Trial
Flemington, New Jersey. -- It
is not easy to laugh in this courtroom
where the issue on trial is the murder
of a baby and where a prmoner walks
in the shadow of the electric chair, but
human beings always have laughed in
the face of death and they are doing it
here.
There comes a time, usually once a
day, when somebody gets into the wit-
ness chair and says something in a
Jersey drawl that sets the courtroom
a-howling while the judge suppresses
his own smile and hammers for order.
Judge Adds Bit of Hulnor
Justice Thomas W. Trenchard even
contributes a line himself now and
then. Such as the one he spoke when
the sheriff handed him a doctor's cer-
tificate from a prospective juror. This
lady, the certificate said, was too ill
to serve on a jury. There followed an
involved list of medical terms which
the judge puzzled over laboriously and
then gave up in disgust.
"Let's just say that she's got high
blood pressure," he told the sheriff. ]
And then there was Charles A. Wil-I
liamson, a marshall of Hopewell, whoI
got on the stand to tell how he wasI
called to the Lindbergh home on theI
night of the kidnaping. Mr. William-I
son takes his police duties in his stride
and never expects Scotland Yard to
summon him into consultation. He
told the court how he went to the
Lindbergh home and made what he
considered an exhaustive survey of
of his farm pants and mackinaw, into
court as a prospective juror.
"Do you have any opinions on this
case?" he was asked.
"I never heard of it before," he said.
"You mean you never heard of the
defendant Hauptmann?" "Nope."
"Or of Colonel Lindbergh?"
"Nope, I don't think so."
"I submit to the court," said Lloyd
Fisher, defense couhsel, "that this man
is unqualified for jury duty because
of lack of intelligence."
"Thanks," said Frank Borowiec
picking up his cap and leaving.
200-Pouml Juror
Mrs. Verna Snyder, Juror No. 3
weighs in at close to 200 pounds, but
when it comes time to call the jury
roll each morning her voice comes out
in a timid whisper. Yesterday the
court clerk was calling the roll and
whes he came to Mrs. Snyder's name
he could not detect an answer.
He looked at her as she sat there
overflowing, the jury chair and said
with a tinge of sarcasm:
"Madam, I can't hear you--but I can
see that you are present, all right."
BURGLAR WRINGS NECK
OF FAMILY PARAKEET
Houston, Tex.--Mr. and Mrs. W. H.
Ames's parakeet had no chance to
warn them when a burglar entered
their home recently because the in-
truder wrung the bird's neck and
tossed the body out a window while
they slept.
"Our parakeet might have awakened
us if she had not been killed." Mrs.
Ames said. "She could say a few
words, and she often amused us by

CORN HIGH, SO FARMERS
FEED ACORNS TO HOGS
Burnet, Tex. -- Acorns, formerly
nothing but waste product, are being
used here for hog feed.
The high price of corn, which sells
for $2.40 per cwt. here. prompted S. E.
Guthrie. farmer, to buy acorns.
He bought 3.100 pounds for 60 cents
per cwt. and reported that his hogs
were thriving on their new diet.
Other farmers have taken up the
idea and now acorns are rapidly be-
coming a staple feed crop.
FORMER CHAMP TO BECOME BONIFACE
Expectation that 1935 will bring
moderately better times for the major-
ity of farmers appears to be justified,
Gilbert Gusler, writing in the "Farm-
er, Farm, Stock and Home" reveals 'as
the result of his research into condi-
tions and figures pertaining to the
farmer and his outlook on the future.
"The improvement which has taken
place in 1933 and 1934," says Mr. Gus-
ler, "will be continued, although prob-
ably at a slower rate, for the reasons
given elsewhere on this page." Mr. Gusler continues:
The year probably will be featured
by a violent shift in relative prices of
feed crops and of livestock. Unfavor-
able feeding rations and a tendency to
liquidate livestock in the early part
of the year probably will be followed
by high prices for livestock, lower
prices for feeds and very profitable
feeding ratios if growing conditions
are favorable. The fortunes of indi-
vidual farmers will be better or worse
depending on the way they are affect-
ed by these changes and by local or
regional variations in weather in 1935
compared with 1934.
The heavy commercial slaughter and
the governmental slaughter probably
has reduced the cattle population
down near the same level as in 1928
which was the bottom of a production
cycle and the top of a price cycle.
Some liquidation of cattle probably
will continue early in 1935, but a pro-
nounced rise in cattle prices before the
year is over appears certain. In spite
of the present unfavorable feeding
ratio, fat cattle marketed next spring,
summer and early fall probably will
be quite profitable. After 1935 crops
become available, demand from drouth
areas for cattle for restocking prob-
ably will be active.
Wheat supplies are being depleted
by extensive feeding and carryover
probably will be down to or slightly
below normal by the end of the sea-
son. With a more favorable season, pro-
duction may increase enough to provide
a moderate expor~ surplus for next
season in which case prices in the sec-
ond half of 1935 might decline toward
an export parity instead of the mark-
ed premium over world prices main-
tained in recent months. World pro-
duction is likely to he larger next
year, but the new season will start
with smaller carryover stocks than for
several years.
The feed situation will continue ex-
tremely difficult in spite of liquidation
of livestock and utilization of wheat,
corn fodder and low grade forage
usually wasted, and moderate import~
of feedstuffs. With numbers of live-
stock sharply reduced, a marked
ehan~a,~m, the relative position of,
prices of feed grains and livestock is
to be expected in the latter part of
1935, however. The extent of the
change will depend on how faverable
the new growing season proves to be,
Losses of new seedings of grass and
legume hay crops will tend to hold
down hay acreage next year.
LIVESTOCK PRICES
HIT NEW HEIGHTS
1931 Peak Passed as Steers
Touch $11.50 Per Hundred
and Hogs Bring $8.10
Chicago, January 17. ~ Livestock
prices hit the highest level since 1951
at the stockyards January 7. Trad-
ers predicted further advances.
Yearlings and light steers touched
$11.50 per hundred; hogs brought $8.10,
five cents above 1934 peak.
Traders predicted hogs would reach
nine to ten and the cattle rise would
continue. Scarcity of feed and gov-
ernment reduction is given as reason.
ACCUSE "POWER"
OF KIROV KILLIHG
Soviet Official P r e s s Place
Charges Against an Un-
named Nation
Moscow. January I7.--Charges that
a "great European power" was in-
volved in the recent assassination of
Sergel Kiro~-, Leningrad soviet leader,
has been printed in the soviet official
press. Without explicit accusation,
Pravda intimated that the power was
Germany,
The trend of the charges was that
the consul of a small European power,
named by Sergus Micoliev, the assas-
sin, as having fostered the plot, was
really backed by the larger power.
The press attached much signifi-
cance to the fact that the assassin pre.
pared documents attributing the crime
to a personal grudge--which it is
claimed he later denied~while the
German press gave the same explana-
tion.
