MORGENTHAU'S SILENCE KEEPS MNUTT IN FIRE

Says, in Refusing Comment on Tax Inquiry.

(Continued from Page One)

pointed out ‘that Mr. McNutt is a candidate for President and that this tax matter has a direct bearing on his future, “I didn’t want the Treasury agents to roll in here like heavy artillery and then start some popgun action,” Mr. Nolan explained. The Justice Department backed him

up. Shortly after a luncheon . that Senator Sherman Minton (D. Ind.) had with President Roosevelt, it was reported that the Chief Executive was taking a personal interest in

|the tax matter.

Both Vice President John N. Garner and Postmaster General James A. Farley were credited with condemning the tactics apparently being used to “smear” Mr. McNutt.

Helvering Predicted Report

On March 30, Mr. Helvering emerged from a conference with the President and was quoted as follows regarding the McNutt case: “I think it will be arranged when this thing is concluded to make a statement on it as to the results.” Mr. McNutt himself followed Mr. Helvering into the. White House. Scheduled for a 15-minute conference with the President, he remained for 40. Afterwards Mr. McNutt reported that they had talked “politics” and that he was extremely pleased with the result. Later reports were that Mr, Helvering had left some data on the McNutt case which Mr. McNutt explained to the President's satisfaction. Elder Indicates Fight Stories that Mr. Elder was accusing Mr. McNutt of “running out on him” in the tax matter were denied by the former when this reporter telephoned him in Indianapolis last night. He refused to comment on the amount involved in the tax deficiency, * but. indicated he would fight any tax. claim since “it was all spent for politics and therefore is tax free.” Because of the nation-wide notoriety attained by the Two Per Cent Club, it is reported that Governor Townsend plans to liquidate it before the November campaign. This would leave Senator Minton, who is up for re-election, out on a limb. He has defended the Ch on the Senate floor.

Jackson and Heller Deny

Receiving Tax Requests

Atty Gen. Omer Stokes Jackson and Dick Heller, executive secretary ‘to Governor M. Clifford Townsend, today issued statements denying they had received requests to pay. deficiency income tax. Bowman Elder, former Two Per Cent ©lub treasurer, said he had no comment to make on the reports © from ~ Washington. = Pleas Greenlee, a founder of -the Club, could not be reached for comment. Governor Townsend could not be reached for comment on reports that the Two Per Cent Club may be liquidated before the November | election. ;

“The report concerning the income tax investigation pertaining is false and without foundation because I have received no communication whatsoever concerning an income tax assessment against me from the Treasury Department, and to my knowledge owe them no tax.” Mr. Heller commented: “The report concerning me receiving a request to explain why 1 should not pay a deficiency tax to the Federal Treasury Department is false. I have not received any such request from the Government and have no reason to anticipate any such action.”

G. 0. P. Forgets 1932, McNutt Declares

MINNEAPOLIS, April 9 (U. P). —Paul V. McNutt, Federal Security Administrator, charged before the Thomas Jefferson Democratic Club last night that Republicans talk about the “booming 20's” but fail to mention the “mass of economic wreckage in which they left the nation in 1932.” Mr. McNutt was scheduled to address North Dakota Young Democrats at Bismarck tonight in behalf cf his campaign for the Democratic Presidential nomination. .

‘WE'LL BE NEXT

ISTANBUL, April 9 (U. P.).— Turkey watched with intense /interest today spread of the war to the Scandinavian nations and considered | possibility of its extension to the Near East. British action ‘against the shipment of German supplies from Scandinavia was regarded in some quarters as foreshadowing similar action in the Near East should England determine upon extreme action to halt the movement of oil and other essentiais destined for Germany from Black Sea ports. The press, before receiving [pews of the German invasion of Denmark and Norway, warned | that “neutrality would not preserve the independence of any country.” At the same time President General Ismet Inanu held a hurried conference with the new Minister of National Defense, Saffet Arikan.

Hlinois Fight: Bitter: Status of Rule in Doubt , April 9 (U. P.).—Illinois voted today in a preferential Presidential primary election that followed the bitterest campaign in years. The largest turnout of voters in history was predicted and perfect weather ‘seemed to assure a heavy rural vote. The Secretary of State’s office predicted that 3,500,000 votes would be cast between 6 a. m. and 5 p. m. Registrations in Chicago alone totaled 1 ,707,979. Mayor Edward J. Kelly of Chicago predicted a “tremendous” vote for Mr. Roosevelt that would lead Mr. Garner at least 5 to 1 in the state. Garner supporters said they were not impressed by the prediction. Dewey supporters forecast a huge complimentary vote that would

sway the convention to name eight delegates at large: for their candidate. The primary vote will not bind the delegates. While the voters went to the polls to vote for the 50 delegates to each of the national presidential nominating conventions, status of the state government was ‘in doubt. Lieut. Gov. John Stelle, insurgent Democratic candidate for the governorship, announced that he had taken over the State House as “Acting Governor” because of the illness of Governor Henry Horner. Both issued calls for special sessions of the State Legislature, and Mr. Horner denied that Mr. Stelle was authorized to replace him. Mr. Stelle was opposed to Harry B. Hershey, country lawyer who was’ indorsed by the Horner organization. Mr. Horner abandoned

cause of illness. The Republican voters will choose between’ Dwight Green, former Federal attorney who prosecuted Al Capone, and Richard J. Lyons, former state legislator, as their gubernatorial candidate.

U. 8. Senator James M. Slattery will oppose State Rep. Benjamin Adamowski + for the Democratic senatorial nomination. Rep. Ralph Church will oppose C. Wayland Brooks, Chicago attorney, in the Republican primary.

Nebraska Voters Appear Apathetic

OMAHA, Neb., April 9 (U, P.).— Nebraska voted today in a Presidential preferential primary election expected to test. farm-state popularity of District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey of New York and Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan. President Roosevelt was unopposed in the Democratic primary. Fair weather was foredast, but voters appeared apathetic toward the election. The Secretary of State's office predicted that only 275,000 of the state’s 600,000 eligible voters would cast ballots. Fourteen delegates will be.chosen for each of the national conventions, but the vote will not be binding upon the delegates. State officers will be elected but

chief interest in the election centered around the contest between Senator Edward R. Burke and Governor R. L. Cochran for the Senatorship.

STOOPS TO REPORT

Officers of the Citizens’ Safety Committee will be elected at the organization's April meeting at noon tomorrow at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Todd Stoops, pomina= tion committee chairman, whl 7 nake his report.
