The battling started when 10 po'ice attempted to prevent clash be- . tween strike sympathizers and a bout 300 non-strikers returning to the mills under an American Federation of Labor dr-ive to resume proAiction. About 2,000 persons were at the " scene of the disorder and police captain Joseph Car.epa, who was . struck in the stomach, estimated that at least 1,200 were struck dur- ' Ing the fighting. i Between 250 and 400- of the 500 ■ normally employed workers went • back to the plant, officials estimat- ’ ed. ’ The disorder started when a group of A.

Earl to renew martial law. Mark said he would not leave and charged Mayor Daniel J. Shields with "strike-breaking” tactics. Jones said that Alexander Whitney, head of the railroad Brotherhood. would appeal to President Roosevelt against the council’s action. Earle ordered state troopers to guard reservoirs and water mains in the area after bombing of one water line forced virtual shutdown I of Bethlehem’s big cambria plant. 2. The possibility of presidential intervention in the seven-state strike continued to arouse speculation after Mr. Roosevelt remarked that the public’s attitude toward extremists on both sides was “A -plague on both your houses,” The White House said he referred to persons who resorted to violence and those who refused to negotiate for a settlement. 2. Youngstown sheet and tube plants at Youngstown, Warren and Niles were reported by company officials to -be almost back to normal Republic reported that 10,000 men—out of 11,000—were at work In the district.

GROSS INCOME ; CHANGES NOTED I Four Important Changes J| Made In State Gross Income Tax J Indianapolis, June 30. — (U.R) The gross Income tax division to j day listed four Important changes • in the state gross Income tax law made by the 1937 legislature und | ; affecting returns due In July on •evelpts for the second quarter of t this year. The lux-pnylng period is from July 1 to 15. The tour changes us listed by the gross income tux division are as follows: For ull taxpayers: it is now necessary to report ull income re- , reived, then deduct non tuxable income on the proper line of the . I return form. For retail merchants: special i return forms are provided for reJ tail merchants. Those wno quali-l • ty as retail merchants are pennittI ed an exemption of $750 on re-1 , | ceipts for the second quarter of II 1937 and subsequent quarters. This . special exemption may be deductI ed only from receipts from selling at retail. The exemption is not in addition to the customary $250 ex-1 i emption. "Retail merchants” are deemed l to include only those persons who 1 make retail sales of tangible prop- ,! erty at a fixed and established place of business. "Tangible personal property” includes only that which is handled as stock in trade for sale to customers in the regular course of business. No person will be considered as having a fixed place of business unless it is a place regularly oper- j ated as a store and recognized as ' such. The mere fact that sales! or delivery routes originate at a fixed place will not necessarily bring any person within the qualifications unless routes are estab- • lished sales routes to which the public has become accustomed. In ' no case will itinerant venders, ped-1 diets or solicitors be considered 1 I "retail merchants.” For partnerships: A partnership! is now a taxpaying entity and files a return accompanied by tax payments in the same manner as an individual or corporation. Partners are taxable as individuals on amounts withdrawn from a part-1 nership if the amounts are above' their pro rata shares of interest. | Instructions are shown on the partnership return form. j.
