Retail Sales Tax
Seen Last Resort
Washington, April 7. (P)

the house today he had come to
believe that congress might
have to resort to a general re
tail sales tax In order to raise
the $7,000,000,000 in new rev
enue President Roosevelt has re
quested. Month-long hearings by the
ways and mei.ns committee, he

the money.

Bourbon Candidate,
Is Medford Visitor
Marvin T. Warlick of Eugene,
Democratic candidate for con

visitor In Mcdford yesterday and
last night and attended the
American Legion meeting.
Warlick, whose slogan is "a
practical business man to hardle
the business of a busy practical
people," lists the following four
planks In his platform:
(1) Demand an end to excess
profits and strikes: (2) no party
politics at the expense of our
country; (3) support the presi
dent; do something to win the
peace, and (4) think of the next
generation and not of the next
election.
Warlick, who expressed his
pleasure at the reception he
received here, left for the north

Vain males, smarting under
the War Production board's edict
banning cuffs on pants, have at
tempted to circumvent the wool
conservation measure by buying
pants too long and taking them
to a tailor to be finished with
cuffs, the board has discovered.
Although custom tailors and
made-to-measure clothiers may
finish suits previously ordered
with cuffs and other furbelows,
until May 30, it is unlawful for
anyone to put cuffs on pants
purchased from ready-to-wear
stock, according to local Inter
pretations of the WPB orders.
