BILL TERRY HIS MANY PROBLEMS Giants' Manager Says Team Looks Best Os All He Managed Pine Bluff. Ark., Apr. The New York Giants, playing onetlay stands enroute to the I Polo grounds, have more “Its" on their dub than at any time aince ' 1933. One of the biggest "ifs" Is 1 Memphis Bill Terry, who hail ■'hanged hi* mind e.bout hanging ' up hl* spikes. He's playing first base regularly now. and looks great. "Thia is the bee: looking ball dub I’ve had since I became man- : uger," he said today. "I’m not daltning any pennant but I don’t see how we can fa.-l to be a contender. The Cubs and Cards are the teams that will fight it out with us.” Terry might decide to play less if Sam Leslie, his main understudy. were showing better. But I Sum has looked bad in the field. : He’s been slow and somewhat clumsy, and so Terry will play 154 games. If possible. At second, Burgess Whitehea.l. traded by the Cards to the Giants, looks better than Hughey Critz or 1 any of the subs the Giants had last season. Whether be will continue to play as well when the chips are down is one of the biggest Giant questions. At short. Hank Bartell should be an improved player. He had a series of ailments last year, but is now 15 pounds heavier, and is coming

Veenhouwer proposed a flat 10 per cent foreign dividend tax instead of the proposed 22%. He pointed to reluctance of foreign investors to hold British securities because of the 22% per cent levy imposed at the source under the British system. “Once this type of business is lost," Veenhouwer warned, “it is difficult to regain." He identified himself as a specialist in American securities, and contended that, to equalize the tax burden, this government should omit the tax on capital gains in the case of non-resident aliens and foreign corporations. This proposed dividend tax,” he said, "can never be made to produce any substantial revenue from abroad. Efforts to collect it will merely drive the security business away from American ex-, changes."
