BATTLE CONTINUES AGAINST SALES TAX

Foes Seek to Kill Plan Allowing Devaluation of Big Estates, (Continued From Page 1) ing agreements have been entered into. Ramseyer contemplates striking this provision from the bill entirely, but others, considering the present law confiscatory in the presence of present low prices, would amend it ony to extend the same privileges to estates of all persons who died within this period. ' This provision is the joint suggestion of tax attorneys and congressional tax experts, and their belief is that it will involve a revenue loss of about *15,000.000. The bureau of internal revenue declined to name the estate tax cases pending before it, saying it was illegal to do so. The ways and means committee adopted the same attitude. Hence, while it is not known what cases still are open and pending and thus touched by the new leniency plan, a survey of newspaper files showed these persons among the very rich who died within the period: George F. Baker, famous New York bank president, reported to have left an estate of *110,000,000; Senator Dwight Morrow, whose fortune aras estimated at *17,000,000; Mortimer Schiff, financier and philanthropist: Harry Payne Whitney, famous turfman; Miss Ella Wendel;

Strauss, building financier; Tom Taggart, famous Indiana figure in the Democratic party: Haley Fiske. life insurance magnate, and Ogden Mills, father of the present secretary of the treasury, Ogden L. Mills. Treasury Secretary Mills, before the ways and means committee, was questioned by Representative Chindblom (Rep.. 111.) about the suggestion for permitting devaluation of estates. Mills replied: “It is not my purpose to discuss that particular question, because my father died at the height of the boom and his estate would be affected by any such legislation. As to other administrative features, we are entirely at the disposal of this committee at any time.” The regular leadership, frightened at the uprising in favor of persons of moderate means and the poor, agreed Monday to exempt all food, clothing, proprietary medicines and farm implements from the 2.25 per cent general manufacturers sales tax. La Guardia considered this a large concession. But. after a conference, the fighting New Yorker announced that the coalition would continue to oppose the sales tax to the limit. He said that even these concessions which may take as much as $150,000,000 off the proposed *600,000,000 sales tax, did not affect the principle now written into the Democratic bill.

In the Cotton Markets

<Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, March 21.—The cotton market was under moderate pressure this morning from Liverpool and local traders. Prices at one time were 6 or 7 points below Saturday’s close. After the Liverpool market closed, a small but steady trade demand was noticed and priced responded. Local traders were covering shorts and at noon prices were as good as the close on Saturday. Uncertainty about the farm boards policy has reduced the outstanding long interest considerably. We think the technical position is excellent and as crop preparations are backward we think the normal thing for the market to do is to advance. CHICAGO —March 21 High. Low. Close.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of j Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” which | appeared in Monday's Times: John Marshall Held Two Fed- : eral Offices at the Same Time — j John Marshall (1755-1835) served as secretary of state under President Adams from June 6, 1800, to March 4, 1801. While he still'was secretary of states, he was appointed chief justice of the supreme court of the United States, succeeding Chief Justice Ellsworth, and commissioned Jan. 31, 1801. He presided in the court at its February term, beginning Feb. 4. 1801, and thus simultaneously was United States secretary of state and chief justice for thirty-one days. Chief Justice Marshall, oldest of fifteen children, never had the benefit of a college education, but he ranks with the greatest jurists of the world’s history. For thirty-five years he headed the supreme judicial tribunal of the United States and his decisions are referred to as the standard authority on constitutional questions. Wednesday: An Unusual Hole in Par. MANY GAINS SHOWN IN INSURANCE STATEMENT Increased Income, Assets Recorded by Virginia Company. By Times Special NEW YORK. March 22.—Substantial gains during 1931 in insurance in force, gross income and assets were revealed in the annual statement of the Life Insurance Company of Virginia, released today by Bradford H. Walker, president. Commenting on the company’s sixty-first annual report, Walker points out that insurance in force on Dec. 31, 1931, amounted to $387,823,631, representing a gain for the last year of $12,579,761. The company’s gross income in 1931 was $17,119,287.79, an increase of $298,557.93 over the preceding year. Assets were increased by $3,356,668.18, bringing the total for this item to $72,970,833.17 as of Dec. 31, 1931. Additions to surplus during the last year made up a total of $5,141,014.84. which, with the $5,000,000 of capital stock, gives the company a surplus of assets over liabilities aggregating $10,141,014.84. With a total of $45,005,692.15 in loans on real estate, including loans on farm properties of $662,734.49. particular attention is called to the fact that the company holds only $342,934.98 in real estate acquired by foreclosure.

WHEAT SELLS OFF ON WEAK FOREIGN NEWS Lower Security Prices Are Other Factors in Dip at Opening. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, March 22.—Failure of Liverpool to respond to the advance in North America Monday and weakness in stocks gave wheat a downturn on the Board of Trade at the opening today. Liverpool opened higher, but sold off when millers remained out of the market, their confidence shaken. The decline was mostly fractional, with the deferred months off most. Corn held about steady, due to the storm checking receipts. Oats was weak. At the opening wheat was % to % cent lower, corn was unchanged to J cent lower and oats % cent lower. Provisions were steady. Liverpool was not as high as expected and at mid-afternoon was only % cent up. Receipts of corn were curtailed sharply at terminal points Mondav, due to the storm, and resulted in a. good advance in cash. Futures were strong with wheat. Oats reflected the firmness in the other pits. Interest was divided with rye, on which bullish export advices were received. Chicago Grain Range WHEAT— *- p,„. High. Low. 11 no close.
