Tex.. Sept. 2. (AP) About 1000 residents, of Eagle Pass and an estimated 12, 000 to 16.000 of the population of the Mexican town of Piedras Negras were driven from their homes today as the Rio Grande and other streams In southwest Texas went on a rampage. Three-fourths of Piedras Ne gras, opposite here, was under water. Most of the 23.000 inhab itants had taken refuge on hill sides. Scores of adobe houses crumbled and fell in ruins. A virtual cloudburst this after noon, with rainfall of three inch es in an hour, made the situation more critical and impeded rescue and salvage work. Twelve blocks In the residence district here and part of the bus iness district were inundated. Rio Grande Going Down, Rain Continues After reaching a peak stage of 52 feet, 10 feet higher than the record mark in the disastrus flood of 1922, the Rio Grande began to , subside here, but it was feared the additional rain would send the stream up again. Excessive rains of the last .few days started the flood. In some sections the downpour exceeded ten Inches, while practically all southwest Texas had more than four inches. An iron bridge over Devils riv er was carried away, severing a railroad "line leading west of Del Rio. Part of the international bridge linking Del Rio with the Mexican city of Villa Acuna also was torn out. The wreckage of houses wash ed down from the ranch country upstream crashed against the rail lng of the new million dollar In ternational bridge; here... A rail road bridge a mile down stream was in imminent danger of going out. UP ON THIS COAST SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2.

T., Sept. 2 (AP) In two minutes today. Governor Roosevelt pushed the "Walker case" obstacle out of his presiden tial campaign pathway where It has rested since the governor be came- the democratic nominee July 1. So long as the fitness of the New York mayor to remain in of fice was a question for him to an swer, Mr. Roosevelt's plans for campaigning could not be defi nitely drawn. To meet the possi bility that the Walker hearing would be continued beyond next week, Mr. Roosevelt yesterday spent three hours re-arranging a western swing. Today, however, the coast trip plans were completed. It will start September 12. If was un derstood in circles close to Roose velt that a southern trip to start about October 12, a week after the western swing ends, is under consideration. That trip would bring Mr. Roosevelt back to New York about October 25, two weeks before the national election No vember 8.- A few minutes ahead of the time for a resumption of the New York mayor's ouster hearing Mr. Roosevelt appeared in the "hall of governors." He read a telegram from John J. Curtin, Walker's chief counsel, advising the gov ernor that the mayor had re signed. Roosevelt then announced: "The honorable mayor, J. J. Walker, has resigned. His action in so doing has therefore termi- I nated the proceedings before the f governor. I thereforVdeclare the hearing closed." CLEVELAND, Sept. 2 (AP) Undaunted by a spectacular racing crash that sent two pilots to the hospital, the "powder puff brigade" staged its first show of the national air races today with Florence Klingensmith, of Minne apolis, winning the Amelia Ear- nart trophy.

F. SACKETT ; indirect taxes through drastic oreauctions In state expenditures. It is the purpose of this and sue- ceeding articles to ascertain how well these promises are working out and to examine the state's fi nancial outlook for 1933. Direct Tax Must be Restored In Part The conclusions of this writer made alter extensive investiga tions ef state receipts and expendi tures for the first full seven months of the year are these: 1. The direct tax for state pur poses must be restored to the ex tent ef two to three mills in 1933 unless very drastic, unusual meth ods are taken. 2. The abolition of the state tax on property in 1932 has been ex ceedingly helpful to taxpayers and many subordinate tax -spending npaies. j S. The state's deficit-will not be decreased this year but rather increased by an amount estimated at $827,033 4. The deficit by the end of 1932 will be at least $3,490,062, the largest In the state's historv. 5. Savings made by the admini stration for the blennlum will be approximately $1,227,367 but far insufficient to balance the 1932 income losses which will be 31.- 764,401 below the estimates made by the state tax commission in De cember, .1931. State Came First In Property Levy What accounts for the great shrinkage , in state income over estimates? There are several an gies to an explanation. In years before 1932 the state has leaned heavily and primarily on a direct property tax for Its revenue. The state was a stern j collector, Promptly on May 5 and November of tfce year each of the 36 counties in the state had to pay to the state treasurer, in full, the one-half portion of the state tax then due. The state demanded its tax in cash, whether or not the county treasury had any money left when the payment was made, Thus the state on its direct tax could fulfill its estimates to the last penny. This year no direct tax was in eluded for state purposes in the levy made in December, 1931. The only property tax levied by the state was for two mills for ele mentary schools. This money nev er leaves the county to come to saiem but stays in each of the 36 counties and is there disbursed for schools. Instead of a certain tax income, the state was forced to estimate its principal source of in come excise and income taxes on the uncertain, unknowable ousmess facts of 1931. The state tax commission nut the firnre down at $4,372,161. bv far the largest item ever estimated by the staie ior its income and excise taxes. Of this large estimate, $868,000 was assured for that portion was conectea and in surplus 1930 taxes, on hand when the 1932 levy was maae. or me remaining $3, 520,000, the tax commission esti w A -S) AJtiAAsfcjkAjh - . uiieu i,zuu,uuu would come from the 1931 Income and in tan gibles tax, raised to a new level, and $960,000 from the 1931 ex else tax. The balance of $370,000 wag to come from 1930 income ana excise taxes still uncollected at the close of 1932. Estimate Far Too High, Discovered The tax commission's figures August' 1 showed how excessive the 1932 estimate had been. In stead of $2,200,000 from Incomes only $1,569,340 had been assess ed, while cash collected was only $982,481. Instead of an excise tax of $950,000, only $405,414 had been assessed and of this only $250,635 had been collected. The miscellaneous 1930 tax hang-over was coming in about as estimated. The tax commission, knowing its rate of collection when taxes i have been mnnui ri. -A..i. ably certain that by the end of 1932 collections of 1931 Income, 1 (Turn to page 2. col. 5) ... 868.000 3.504.100 2,554,000 - -...$2,663,028 $1,754,401 I - 827,637 1932. . . . ... . . .... . 827.031 end of 1132 ......... $1,490,012 eon S Question as to Whether he Will Seek Reelection Is Just one Issue Tammany Support Queried; Aiso Tenure of McKee Who Is Regretful ' NEW YORK. 8ept 2. fAP) Violent cross-currents of. political opinion seethed over. New York tonight as to the effect of James J. Walker's resignation. An air of uncertainty hung over each phase of the complicated sit uation brought about by the res ignation, as Joseph V. McKee, al dermanie president, assumed the duties of mayor. The three most pertinent Ques tions to which there were no def inite answers were these: Can the office be filled by a special election this November or does McKee hold office until the expiration of Walker's term, Dec ember 31. 1933? . Is Walker definitely a candidate for reelection? It he is. will Tammany Hall and Us political allies give him the democratic nomination and throw their full strength behind his cam paign? Not Yet Decided Says Curry's Ally in the lace of widespread pre diction that John F. Curry, Tam many chief, and the other borougb leaders would back Walker in a vindication campaign. John H.
