USE OF TAX POWER
SEEN AS CONTROL
Secretary Wallace Says
Govt. Must Act As Police
man, Coordinator, Clear
ing House, Stimulator
WASHINGTON. Msy IS (API
ITie federal government. Secretary
Wallace said recently, must me Its
taxing power In the next few years In
an effort to control another boom
and depression.
"A new science of government ! In
the malting," he declared, "the broad
outlines of which are Just appearing."
The farm spokesman In President
Roosevelt's cabinet declared the gov
ernment's place In the future would
be "partly a policeman, partly a co
ordinator, partly a clearing house and
partly a stimulator."
Every Ten Years
"There seems to be a tendency for
a boom and crash to come about once
every ten years," Wallace said. "If
1619 produced 1921 and 1929 pro
duced a 1932, we can not help from
looking to the possibilities of a 1939
producing a 1942.
"There are indications that organ
ised business, labor and agriculture,
left to themselves, may produce a
situation some time during the next
10 years which might bring about
some time in the 1940' a repetition
of that which we experienced In 1921
and the early 1930's."
The secretary said many economists
believed the national Income would
climb to "at least 80 billion dollars''
by 1940, unless a catastrophic war
interrupted.
National income last year was
about 69 billions, compared with a
depression low of about 46 billions
and the 1929 peak of about 79 bil
lions. Sees 1940 Surplus
If the 1940 forecast la realized, Wal
lace aald. present federal tax rates
will produce Income exceeding gov
ernmental expenditures and "there
will be a surplus which can be ap
plied on the debt."
The secretary said that many cor
poratlona and private Individuals
would make large profits and have
large savlnga in the next few years.
In the past, he said, large aavlngs
usually have resulted in unwise
spending and speculation which in
turn caused a depression.
"In short," he said, "an unusual
pickup in corporate and personal sav
ings Is likely to be followed by a
business recession.'1
Wallace said the government could
increase taxes In the period of big
profits and aavlngs and have the
money thus produced to pass out In
times of depression. The Increases,
be declared, ahould be made great
enough to prevent savings reaching
the point at which unwise specula
tion would begin.
Defends Relief Spending
He remarked that many persons
were worried about the outpouring
of billions of dotlara "for auch activi
ties as WPA. PWA. AAA and resettle
ment." He declared, however, that funds
from such actlvitiea found their way
chiefly to persons who bad little or
no Income In depression times, and so
acted as an economic atablllzer.
Wallace aald there was little chance
for halting government expenditures
for relief and almlllar activities.
These extraordinary expenditures." he
said, "will be with ua for a long time
in the future but the volume may
vary considerably according to the
stages of the business cycle."

NEW YORK. May 13. Tele
vision on a screen Images 18 by 24
Inches square produced by a newly
developed cathode ray tube was
demonstrated to the silver anniver
sary 'convention of the Institute of
Radio Engineers here today.
The picture has a brightness equal
to that of home movies. By Increasing
the distance from the screen It . la
possible to obtain one as large ab
three by four feet good enough to be
viewed by an aud'ence of several hundred.
Enlargement Simple
Enlargement Is obtained through a
simple optical system placed before
the flurorescent end of the tube.

Scientists Say Tube Is
Distinct Advancement
poratton of America, were outlined In
papers written by Dr. W. H. Zworyktn '
W. H. Painter and Dr. R, R. Law. the
men directly concerned with Its de
sign. It Is the outgrowth of the "kine
scope," the television receiving tube
that paints Images on Its flat end
but does not project them. The larg
est ''kinescope" to date with a view
ing end 15 Inches In diameter, per
mits pictures approximately 9 by 13
Inches.
Not Vet Terfect
While the projection tube la re
garded In scientific circles as a dis
tinct advancement. Dr. Law said It
had not yet reached the stage where
It can be used outside the laboratory.
The tube. 18 Inches In length but
much smaller In diameter at the larg
est end than the "kinescope." has as
Its principal feature a new type of
"electron gun" developed by Dr. Law
and his associates. The "gun" which
focuses the flying electrons, had to
be designed to produce an extremely
slender beam yet have brilliancy
enough for projection.
The demonstration, part of an en
tire afternoon devoted to a televis
ion symposium, was planned to In
clude a showing to the visiting en
gineers of the field-test 441-line pic
tures produced by the RCA-NB8 sta
tion on the Empire State building
from the Radio City studios.
Illuminating tests by Harley lams.
R. B. James and W. H. Hlckok. also
of the RCA laboratories, led them to
conclude In another paper that out
door television pickups of football
Raines were less likely to be satisfac
tory than parades and races. This,
they held, was due to the time of day
and the lateness of the se&on.
In the measurement and recording
of the brightness of scenes typical
for televlMon thev also found that 1
present equipment was sufficiently
responsive for baseball.
Dr. Zworykln, In a paper having
the collaboration of Q. A. Morton and
L. E. Flory, ssld the "iconoscope.' the
electric camera of television, was still
undergoing Improvement looking to
ward greater sensitivity.

South Dakota, who stated that rare
speclmena of sand crystals were be

Governor LaPollette'a letter said :
"Thank you for sending me a mem
bership card to the Southern Ore
gon Gem and Mineral society.
"X am quite in accord with your
desire to assemble an exhibit In
which every state in the Union will
be represented. I am asking Profes
sor Ernest T. Bean, state geologist,
to make an appropriate selection and
send It to you."
Mr. Stout's letter said: "Under
separate cover you should receive two
samples of sand crystals which, In
behalf of Gov. Leslie Jensen, we are
happy to contribute to you for your
