Twenty-ninth Year
MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, APRIL 29, 1934.
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON. D. C, April 38
The administration did not lift Its
little linger to stop the senate plan
for soaking the rich in the new tax
bill. Instead, its
henchmen in the
house surrender
ed to the senate
alter only a po
lite struggle in
the secret confer
ence committee.
The aurr render
came so fast re
ports got around
that the admin
istration secretly
wanted to experi
ment with the
senate plan for a year or so. Admin
istration men rushed into print with
denials of such reports, but the ac
tions of the conference committee
spoke louder than the, denials.
If President Roosevelt signs the bill,
it will mean that, we are going to ex
periment with a tax theory which
goes at least 65 per cent of the way
toward confiscation of great wealth.
The 65 fcer cent maximum tax on
large estates Is the spearhead of .iie
Indirect confiscation experiment. Tho
upward adjustment of surtaxes on
large Incomes and the strong gifts
tax are somewhat In line with the
same theory. Chairman Pat Harrison
once Admitted almost that much on
the senate floor.
Just now these -new rates are large
ly paper taxes because there Is so
little wealth to pay them. But, if
people start making money again at
a. 1929 clip, the rates will become very
realistic.
The rich have been soaked before
with rates almost as high. It did not
mean anything then because there
were so many loopholes. All these
loopholes are supposed to be plugge-1
In the current bill.
Every 'person who pays Income tax
should see a tax adviser as soon as
this bill becomes law. Business men,
particularly, should get expert advlco
to conform with the revolutionary
administrative changes. ' -
The bill Is ostensibly a slight re
duction m taxes for every married
man with an earned Income of less
than (30,000 a year. But the taxpayer
will have to bo well advised to get an
that Is coming to him. ...
The Japanese situation has been
played down publicly to allay undue
excitement, but President Roosevelt
has personally devoted more time to
It in the last few days than to any
other single subject.
His main difficulty was to get a
copy of the new Japaneso protecto
rate policy over China.
The state department combed the
world for It, without success. The pri
vate excuse offered by the Japanese
foreign office was that it was an oral
statement and no copies existed.-
News correspondents In Tokio whis
pered to the American embassy there
that the foreign office minister, who
announced the policy to them, read
his words from several sheets of paper
Mr. Roosevelt's announcement about
new naval construction was meant to
be our first reply to the Japanese. He
had planned for some time to ask for
funds to build more s hips this sum
mer, but he chose this specific time
for maximum effect In Toklo.
The day he made his announce
ment, a certain official of the state
department said: "The only thing tha
ever seems to frighten the Japanese
Is for us to do something to our
navy."
The administration labor crowd hna
fallen out over the labor board bill.
The trouble started when Donald
Rlchberg. the great labor lawyer In
the NRA, had an Idea that he could
work out a bill better than Wagner s
At a White House conference attend
ed by Rlchberg wasner and Labor
Secretary Perkins It was agreed to let
Rlchberg do the Job.
The results were not at all satis
factory to Wagner and Miss Perkins.
They privately called the Rlchberg
draft a measure tor laoor peace ai
anv price.
Wagner and Miss Perkins put thflr
heads together on a new aubstltute of
their own.
The bill will create a general labor
board to take all the strike disputes
off Mr. Roosevelt's neck. He has been
Irritated considerably by the trouble
some steel, automobile and rail atrlke
threats.
The bill elso will make Miss Per
kins' labor department more Im
portant factor than It now Is. She has
been smarting at the whlspera of the
labor leaders that her department Is
nothing more than a statistical bu
reau."
Rlchberg has been working In ca
hoots with General Johnson on the
labor board bill. Not long ago John
son sent out a private order to his
local NRA boards advising them to
settle labor troubles. Those who fa-

starts Chase Anew
Story Doubted.
- TUCSON, Arlt., April S8. P
A large man, dressed In a gray suit,
got out of a black sedan he had
driven up to the gate of Sunnysldc
school, near Tucson, yesterday,
walked hurriedly into the school
yard.
Children, atartled, stopped their
play.
"There's a kidnaper I" came a cry.
The youngsters rushed to get In
side the building.
Teachers, hurrying out, found
Herman E. Hendrlx, Arizona super
intendent of public instruction,
standing nonplussed on the walk.
TUCSON, Ariz., April 28. (Jf) Hit-
ting the trail of two heavily armed
men seen with a little girl near Fort
Huachuca, hundreds of dead-shot
possemen reinforced by Apache track
ers, tonight plunged anew into the
hunt for June Robles and her kid
napers, forewarned that one of their
quarry might be Clyde Barrow, no
torious outlaw.
Squad cars loaded with eager man-
hunters streaked out of Tucson in a
matter of minutes after the spread
ing of an alarm that a machine bear
ing a Texas license and reputedly hav
ing been stolen at Uvadle, Texas,
might be carrying the girl and the
men for whom the greatest man hunt
ing posse ever organized in Arizona
had been looking.
The report brought to a quick cli
max the nerve rasping suspense of
possemen forced to stand Idle with
their guns while a secret intermedlaiy
for the Roblea family reputedly was
dickering with the abductors for the
life and freedom of the little girl who
was seized in Tucson Wednesday af
ternoon and held for a $15,000 ran
som. Eva" Coleman" a negro woman" who
operates a restaurant at White City,
on the dge of the - Fort Huachuca
reservation, turned In the startling
clue.
She said the men drove up to her
restaurant, obtained food and at
tempted to feed the little girl with
them. She said she saw a machine
gun, a rifle and an automatic pistol
in the car. She took the number of
the machine and notified army offi
cers, who in turn telephoned to Tuc
son forthwith,
Ora L. Shinn, deputy sheriff sent
by Farrar by airplane to Fort Huachu
ca, interviewed the woman, and came
back to report he was not satisfied
she had seen all she described. It was
his personal opinion, Shlnn said, that
she may have had "a pipe dream."
The search, however, went on.
Citizenry Impatient
TUCSON, Ariz., April 28. (T) Inv
patiently, the rugged citizenry of this
not-long -since frontier country neia
Itself in leash today as the family of
six-year-old June Robles, kidnaped
for ransom, secretly continued efforts
through an intermediary to contact
her abductors.
For 36 hours a manhunt which had
called into the field bronzed cattle
men friends of aged Bernabe Robles,
grandfather of the little girl, Ameri
can Legion members, police, sheriff's
deputies and United States border
patrolmen, bad been halted and held
in abeyance to give the family an op
portunity to bargain privately for the
winsome child's life.
June's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fer
nando Robles, the grandfather and
Carlos Q. Robles, twin-brother of
June's father and an assistant county
attorney, clung to hope that the child
still lived, but the strain grew with
the hours.
Authorities, tensely holding th
hunt in leash. Indicated they were
prepared to wait overnight again If
necessary before launching the hun
dreds of waiting volunteers once more
Into intensive search.
The family Intermediary, working
Independently, strove to utilize the
hours that remained of the tacit truce
to arrange a contact which he hoped
would result In return of the child
alive.
Rumors that a ransom In reality
already had been paid, and that l.t
tle June nevertheless, was known to
be dead, were discounted by the sec
ret agent, whose identity was beirm
held in strict confidence in order to
give him a free hand.
No money was known to have
changed hands and no definite con
tact for any exchange had been made
so far, it was indicated, although er
forts had been ceaseless to arrange an
exchange agreement.

FEDERAL RESERVE
L
Senate 1 Approves ' Plan" To
Spur Industry And Labor
President Wary About
Silver Legislation.
WASHINGTON, Aphll 3B. (Fl
Federal reserve loans to give small
businesses the financial help they
cannot get from other sources were
approved today by the senate banking
committee.
The bill approved would allow about
I280.0OO.000 to be used In that man
ner. Officials have said they expected
such direct' loans by the federal re
serve to go to businesses unable to
obtain loans from the regular chan
nels.
Such direct loans, . however, would
be In unusual cases. Most of the loans
would be made through regular bank
ing channels with these banks becr
ing twenty per cent of the risk and
the federal reserve the remainder.
The loans would be for five years.
Thus, In a roundabout way, the gov
ernment would extend to small In
dustries the game aid already given
farmers, railroads, banks, and various
other forms of national activity
through the several emergency and
permanent lending agencies that have
been set up.
One Idea back of the plan. Is that
It will supply business with the funds
necessary to stimulate additional em
ploymen. Only yesterday, William
Green, president of the American
Federation of labor, said the tendency
was turning toward the Idea of get
ting more labor out of men rather
than that of getting more men to
labor.
The day also brought more talk
about allvcr. At the White House it
was ssld the president would like to
see thirty per cent of the natlon'a
money backed by silver but he want
ed this to come through International
action and not through mandatory
legislation.
At the same time, Senator Smith.
(D S. C.) told the senate he saw no
reason why ,the )!"' of silver holders
should have been drswn up and pub
lished. He said he saw no difference
between owning silver and owning
any other commodity.

Balk Early Adjournment.
WASHINGTON, April 28. (AP)
Senate - Democratic leaders ' today
counted enough votes to nass the
Roosevoir tariff trading bill and pie
dieted Republican efforts to hoaey
comb It with amendments that would
be defeated.
They said they found Just four
Democrats definitely committed
against the bill and a few others
who were still uncertain how thoy
would vote. These will bo partially
offset by two or three defections
from the Republican side.
Monday evening the Democrats will
hold a party eonferenco to , mnko
plans for pushing the measure
through. They expect ten dayn or
two weeks' debate to bo sufficient
although Republicans are talking of
three to four weeks discussion.
This talk Democrats said was In
tended to Influence a withdrawal of
the bill because prolonged debato
would conflict with President Roose
velt's expressed desire for an early
adjournment.
The president, they said, was very
eager to have the meaaure passed
so the United States might lose no
time In building up Its foreign trade
by negotiating agreement for mutual
tariff reductions on selected com
modities. The Republicans will be-ready with
a long string of amendments, one
of which would exclude tariffs on
all articles produced under farm or
NRA codes from changes under the
act. Tills the Democrats denounced
It would leave the president nothing
to work with, they said
Senator Reed (R., Pa.), will seek
approval for an amendment to as
sure hearings to affected Industries
before duties . are changed. He also
will propose an amendment to make
tho tariff agreements subject to con
grcssiona approval and to require
tariff commission consideration before
action can be taken.

Co-operation With State

PORTLAND, Ore, April 38. (AP)
Full co-operation was pledged to
day by Oregon bsewbrs to the state
liquor control commission in Its
campaign to eliminate any rowdy
beer parlors. '
At the same time the browers de
nounced efforts of "opportunists and
Irresponsible politicians to level un
deserved criticism at the brewing In
dustry.'" Tho action was taken by
unanimous vote of the executive
committee of the Oregon Brewers'
association which declared for reg
ulations to put unscrupulous dis
pensers out of business,
Tho brewers announced boor's com
plete divorcement from the hard
liquor traffic or bootlegging ovlls
which the state liquor control com
mission Is attempting to stamp out.
Action by the executive commit
tee followed a atato meetng of as
sociation members.
"We believe that limitation of tho
number of beer dispensers In the
state will prove beneficial from the
standpoint of public welfare and the
Industry," the brcwors asserted. "Wo
commend tho action of the state
commission In this regard. Wo be
lieve, too. that any dlspensor who
repeatedly violates regulations or
permits disorder ahould be put out
of business and kept out of busi
ness."
Forty-five Mdford firms have re
ceived liquor licenses from the state
liquor control commission this year,

MAIL TRIBUNE TO
BOOST PUBLICITY
COMING JUBILEE
Special Monthly Subscription
Rate To Spread Informa
tion Of Banner Through
out Boast Area.
How to carry the word of Ore
gon's forthcoming Diamond Jubilee ,
throughout the coast Is one of the
major problems worrying tie public
ity committee of the Jublle organt- :
tatlon. Saturday a plan was de
vised whereby every resident of the
county can take a hand in helping .
to spread publicity among those who
may be Interested and who may be
influenced to attend the great seven- 1
day celebration if given sufficient in- '
formation on the attractions whtcrt
may be expected.
During the first 27 days of April '
the Mall Tribune published 293 col- .
umn Inches of publicity matter and
two editorials regarding the Jubilee '
quite a alzebale amount. As time
for the celebration draws nearer,
more ana more stories concerning
plans, details and general informa
tion will be published.
This Is all very well, so far aa It
goes in acquainting Southern Oregon
people with tho program from June
3 to 6, mut there are literally thou
sands of people outside of this area
who are Interested in Soutftern Ore- ,
gon and who may bo Induced to visit
the Jubilee and look over the country
provided they are given Information
regarding the attractions which we
have to offer.
Here Is the proposal of the Jublle '
committee, worked out with the co
operation of the Mail Tribune:
Beginning Tuesday. May 1. the '
Mall Tribune will make a special re
duced rate for ono mont.h of 30 cents
one-half the regular monthly rate.
Residents of Med ford and vicinity
have relatives, friends, acquaintances
or business connections outside this
area who would be glad to road of
the plana lor. tthe. Jubiloe and -who,
If given the opportunity to under
stand the magnitude of Vie affair,
would be tempted to visit Medford
and Southern Oregon at that time.
It will be a time for family re- :
unions, for the renewal of- old friend- '
ships by visitors from distant points.
It will not be possible for Medford
people to sit down and write all their
relatives and friends a personal In
vitation to attend .the Jubilee, but
It will be possible to send' them a'
daily copy of the Mail Tribune car- ,
rying t.hls Invitation and thoroughly
acquainting them with what they
may expect onco thoy are hereall
that Is necessary to hold this tempt
lng lure constantly before the poten
tial out-of-town visitors for a monWl
la for Medford people to co-operate
with the Jubilee publicity committee
to the extent of sending the paper ;
to those they think would be Inter
ested. There is no profit In the pro
posal for the Mall Tribune there is
no profit in subscriptions even at
the regular rato but the Mall Trib
une Is glad to have the opportunity
to work with the publicity committee
In this way.
Immediately upon entering a sub' '
scrlptlon, a letter will be sent from
this office Informing the addressee
that the Mall Tribune Is being sent
during the month of May to acquaint
them with the jiiblloo through the
thoughtfulnesa of whoever pays for
the subscription. In this way, the
addressee will be notified to bo on
the lookout for the paper and will
of course watch for stories In connec
tion with the forthcoming celebra
tion. (Continued on Page Four.)
