SOCIAL SECURITY
BILL APPROVED BY
E COMMITTEE
(Continued from Pag One)
niht. They Indicated If It were pos
sible they would try either to ellm
In at the taxes, to reduce them or to
postpone their effective date.
Two Tpes Taxes
The measure now levies two types
or taxes on payrolls: one for contrl.
butory old-age annuities and one for
unemployment Insurance. The old-age
annuity taxes start at 3 per cent on
January t, 1837 half paid by the em
ploye and half by the employer-and
rise 1 per oent each three years to
total of 6 per cent on January 1.
1949.
The unemployment insurance tax
es also on payrolls are all paid by
the employer and begin at 1 per cent
on January 1, 1930. and Increase 1
per oent a year to 8 per cent on Jan
uary 1, 1938.
The committee experta calculated
that the unemployment insurance tax
would cost the employer 300,000,000
next calendar year, 400.000,000 lr.
1937, 600,000,000 In 1938 and each
year afterward.
They figured that the annuities tax
would cost the employer and the em
ploye each 200.000.000 In 1937, O3O0.-
000.000 In 1940, MOO .000 .000 in 1943.
500.000.000 In 1946 and 600,000,000
in 1949.
Peak In loin
Tli us, they calculated, the total tax
burden would be 200.000.000 In 1936.
rising to $800,000,000 in 1937. to !,-,
000.000.000 in 1038. to 1,200.000,000
In 1940, to 1,40,000.000 In 1943, to
1,600,000.000 In 1946 and to a. 61,
800.000,000 minimum in 1949.
Republicans also said that In ad
dition to those sums it would be nec
essary to get 98,438,000 out of gener
al tax receipts next fiscal year for
other phases of the bill.
That total include $49,750,000 for
old age pensions to the needy; 24,.
750.000 for dependent children, 10,
000.000 for public health and t3,800,
000 for material and child welfare.
In future years, the cost of old age
pensions for the needy would de
crease, but after the next fiscal year
there would be a federal appropria
tion of 49.000,000 annually for ad
ministration of unemployment Insur
ance under systems set up by the
states.

In 1931, the Department of Agricul
ture reported.
The decrease waa due largely, W. R.
Gregg, chief of the weather bureau,
said, "to the well co-ordinated effort
of sir transport companies and gov
ernment agencies concerned with
weather services.
The report pointed out that com
mercial aviation now employed more
men with training In meteorology
and as a result transport companies
were better able to decide when It
was safe to fly and when schedules
had better be abandoned.
"Some companies." it continued,
"compelled their pilots to report
promptly weather conditions to the
weather bureau."
These reporta provided a yaluable
supplement to airway weather ser
vice, the department's report added,
and Improved the safety of air trans- ,
portatlon.
BUSINESS ENTERS
(Continueo from page one.)
dence of the uncertainties rising
from threats of labor dissensions a
week earlier, the general rate of
gain has encountered no serious
retrograde currents, but the passing
of March has brought few regrets.
Retailers have been encouraged
particularly by the more rapid move
ment of luxury lines, and now are
estimating the April volume will
rise 20 to 35 per cent above that re
corded for April, 1934."
The best retail showing of the
week, the survey stated, was In the
middle western area, where gains
amounted to 10 to 12 per cent above
last year.
Higher schedules adopted by a
number of divisions during the week
has lifted the general rate of in
dustrial operations 12 to 15 per
cent In excess of the comparative
1934 showing, the review stated.
Production of drugs, furniture,
stoves, paints and men's clothing at
some centers has reached a new high
for three or four years, with the
peak ' of the season yet to be
readied. It said.
OF
PERILED BY ACTION
IN CASE OF LUMBER
WASHINGTON. April B. (AP)
Dismissal of the Belcher lumber i
code violations case In the supreme
court by the Justice department and t
NRA was sold by Senator Pope (D., ;
Idaho) today to have "greatly en- ;
dangered" the possibility of any ex
tension of the NIRA by congress. !
The senator criticized what he '
termed the "only possible conclu- !
slon" from the dismissal of the
cose fear of NRA officials of hav
ing the NIRA declared unconstitu
tional as "short-sighted" In thot
the reaction in congress was much
more unfavorable than an adverse
court decision possibly could have
been.
Senator Bone (D.. Wash.) said the
only logical conclusion he could
reach from the dismissal action was
that NRA Intended to drop the lum
ber Industry from code administra
tion and did not care to risk a court
test on a code that was to be drop
ped for fear of endangering other
codes.
The national control committee of
the lumber code authority continued
in session here, considering the rec
ommendation of authority officials
tl at the code be suspended.

BLACKTAIL DEER
ON DECEASE IS
Mule Deer and Elk On In
crease In Oregon and
Washington Bear and
Coyotes Gaining Ground
Important fish, game and wild life
species of Oregon and Washington
are being depleted; others are In
creasing beyond the food HmlU of
their range and the whole situation
calls for scientific handling to se
cure maximum public benefits, ac
cording to the recent game report
for 1934 released by the forest ser
vice. The report shows that elk and
mule deer, the principal game ani
mals of Oregon and Washington,
are on the Increase In all the for
ests where they are found. Black
tailed deer, however, are sharply de
creasing In some localities and axe
hardly holding their own In other
areas. While the increase In elk and
mule deer la gratifying, according
to the report, the numbers have in
creased to such a point In some
localities that a plan for removal of
the excess Is required. Otherwise the
forest service expects heavy game
losses from starvation In such areas
the next winter. A definite plan Is
advised to develop the greatest
amount of game, consistent with
available food, on all game areas;
also to bring back under-protected
species, like black-tall deer, by bet
ter protection from poachers and
disease.
Few Mountain Sheep.
Mountain sheep are almost extinct
In the two states, according to the
report, although a few are continu
ally reported In the Wallowa moun
tains In Oregon and a larger num
ber In the Chelan forest in north
central Washington. Antelopes are
fairly numerous In Oregon, though
none of this species Is reported from
Washington. Mountain goats appear
to he numerous In the north Cas
cade area of Washington, but are
extinct In Oregon. Bear are Increas
ing slowly in the two states, ac
cording to the estimates.
Coyotes are on the increase

statement applies particularly in
th case of beaver.
Fish Life Dwindling.
The report also points oui that
the drain on flab life through
angling Is becoming serious. In spite
of the rather extensive restocking
program of the state game commis
sions. "With every effort being made
by these commissions to maintain
satisfactory fishing conditions, the
demand continues to be In excess of
the supply," says the report, "and
some remedy for this condition must

areas of the region thtrs are over
