NIGH TAX BILL GAINS IMPETUS IN WASHINGTON Britain's Balanced Budget Cited by La Follette to Win Help. BY WALKER STONE Time* Staff Writer WASHINGTON. April 3.—Highei income and inheritance taxes are inevitable, and the longer congress avoids facing the issue. ( the higher the rates will have to be, Senator Robert M. La Follette said today as he urged adoption of his amendments to the tax bill. "If we* fail to provide for increased revenues now. we shall have to come back to congress next session and levy taxes much higher than we now are considering,'’ said the Wisconsin Progressive. "We must stop thinking about the next election, and start thinking about the needs of the government.” Progress Made in Senate Noticeable progress is being made in the senate by advocates of higher income and inheritance duties. A powerful incentive to this drive has been Great Britain's achievement ol a balanced budget and a $166.000,000 surplus, announced in London Saturday night. There have been desertions from the ranks of the low-tax conservatives. Senator Robert J. Bulkley (Dem., O.). away on his honeymoon, has left instructions that he be paired in favor of both the La Follette amendments when a vote is taken. An amendment providing income tax increases about onethird as large as the increases proposed by Senator La Follette has been prepared by Senator W. H. King (Dem., Utah,. An informal poll of key members of the senate disclosed today that there is a fighting chance for approval of both the La Follette amendments, especially the one hiking estate rates. Britain's Example Cited "Great Britain imposes the highest income and death duties in the world,” Senator La Follette said. "And the fact that Great Britain has balanced her budget and at the same time taken good care of her unemployed and needy should prove to every one how specious is the argument that higher taxes on incomes and estates injure business.” A demand that the senate send the tax bill back to the finance committee with instructions to eliminate $750,000,000 in excise taxes and add $4,000,000,000 in taxes based on the principle of ability to pay was contained in a form letter sent to all senators yesterday by Benjamin C. Marsh of the people's lobby. SCOUTS TO GIVE DINNER Governor McNutt Will Be Guest of Honor of Troops 72. Boy Scout Troop 72.

POPE ATTACKS NAZIFICATION Praises Loyalty of German Catholic Youth Groups, Promises Support. Hit I nilrtl Prist BERLIN, April 3.—Pope Pius Xi assured Catholic youth organizations of. his support against Nazification and urged them to resist “propaganda for anew conception of life leading the way from Christianity toward anew paganism,” in a letter published today in the Catholic newspaper Volks Zeitung of Cologne. The pope thanked the organizations for loyalty and expressed satisfaction at the daily sacrifices of Catholic youth bodies in defense of their convictions. To be loyal to the Catholic church, the pope said, was not in contradiction to their loyalty to their people and their fatherland. THREE CHILDREN ARE ATTACKED BY DOGS Girl Is Bitten by Stray While Skating Near Home. Three children were bitten by dogs last night in city streets. Two of the dogs were strays. Marcia Stump. 13, was bitten on the leg and ankle by a stray dog, while she was skating, which attacked her near her home in the 4300 block in Graceland avenue. Albert Clark, 9. Negro, 728 Locke street, was playing with a large police dog near his home when the dog bit him in the leg. Thomas Hockett, 9, Negro, 614 Torbertt street, was bitten in the right arm by a dog owned by Mack Williams and chained in his yard at 907 Paca street.

CITY MAN ENDS 25-YEAR HUNT ' FOR MOTHER Cleaning Shop Proprietor and Parent ReunitecJ by Chance. Reunion in Indianapolis after a twenty-five year has come to Charles Rodman, 26. of 720 East Fifty-second street, and his mother. Mrs. Ella Rodman Erton, of Bryan, O. Mr. Rodman, now proprietor of Rodman's Cleaning establishment at 661 East Forty-ninth street, was born in 1908 at 635 Russell avenue. When only eighteen months old his mother and father separated and he was brought up by his father, Jess Rodman. The circumstances which culminated in the reunion of mother and son three days ago probably would be turned mere coincidence. The results, however, are far too important to those concerned to be taken so lightly. Told Mother Was Dead Mr. Rodman's search for his mother began years ago. He had been told repeatedly that his mother was dead. Not content to accept this information as final, he advertised vainly in newspapers throughout the country. He married, and on the seventeenth of last month a baby girl. Joyce A.nn, was born to him and Mrs. Rodman. His determination to find his mother was renewed, but his efforts still were futile. Then, less than two weeks ago, the “coincidence” occurred. A man came into the cleaning establishment and asked Mr. Rodman if he were by any chance related to the Rodmans who used to live at the Russell avenue address some thirty years ago. Locates Maternal Grandfather Replying in the affirmative, Mr. Rodman was given the name of his maternal grandfather, who lives at Unionville, in Brown county. Last Monday he received a reply, telling him that his mother now is Mrs. Ella Erton, and that she lived in Bryan, O. That was enough. Mr. Rodman got in touch with her, and Saturday she came to Indianapolis. When she came in the store, she had to ask an employe to point out her son. Twenty-five years brings changes in a man's features. But that did not matter—they are together again. RAIL STRIKE AVERTED BY MEDIATION BOARD Company Tried to Dominate Workers, Report Reveals. By Unitrd Prist WASHINGTON. April 3. The special mediation board which averted a strike on the Delaware & Hudson railroad charged today that the company had attempted to dominate negotiations with employes through “disciplining” board on which workers were not represented. The charge was contained in a formal report by the mediators to President Roosevelt. It was made public at the White House. The mediators said the agreement reached a week ago had settled all outstanding points of controversy and definitely removed all strike threats. Rebekahs to Be Entertained Past Noble Grands’ Association of Olive Branch Rebeka lodge will be entertained Wednesday at the home of Mrs. H. K. Landes, 1621 North Capitol avenue.
