Vote Probe 1936 Scandal

Senator Says Pattern

Similar to Pendergast

WASHINGTON, June 7 (U. P.).— Senator James P. Kem (R. Mo.) sald today a preliminary senate study showed a “vote fraud pattern” in last year's disputed Mis. sourli primary similar to that in 1936 which resulted in wholesale convictions of members of the notorious Pendergast machine. Mr. Kem said the judiciary-sub-committee's inquiry indicates a full scale senate probe of the justice de-

partment’s conduct is “necessary and desirable.” The Missouri senator, whose

charges touched off the inquiry, sald evidence presented to the subcommittee showed “the hands of the FBI were tied by order of the attorney general.” “I feel that the attorney general failed to investigate and prosecute when abundant evidence was available,” he added. 3

Subcommittee Chairman Homer

Ferguson announced

tion calling for all-out investigation of the justice department. The disputed Democratic primary resulted in the defeat of former Rep. Roger C. Slaughter by President Truman's personally endorsed candidate, Enos Axtell. Mr. Axtell in turn was beaten in the general election by Republican Albert L. Reeves Jr. Mr. Reeves’ father, Federal Judge Albert L. Reeves of Missouri, testifled yesterday that he “probably would have suggested a further investigation” by a federal grand jury had he seen all the evidence in the FBI files. > Against Calling Jury Two other federal judges—Albert A. Ridge and John Caskie Collett— said they would not have favored calling a grand jury on the basis of excerpts from the FBI files resd in the committee. But all three judges agreed somte| further investigation was indicated by subsequent evidence in the case.

Tax Veto May Be Answer to Taft

Political observers looked to President Truman for the next move in his economic feud with Senator Robert A. Taft (R. O.). Administration sources hinted it might come in the form of a veto of the

President to sign the measure which would cut personal income taxes by from 105 to 30 per cent starting July 1. The chief executive has until June 16 to act. Mr. Taft, in answer to Mr. Truman’s recent blast, said “the best governmental policy to reduce prices is to cut government expenses and cut taxes.”

Await 2d Phase Of U. S. Tax Review

The tax-writing house ways and means committee set June 17 for the second phase of its comprehensive review of the federal tax structure. This phase will be concerned with the commynity property tax laws of nine states. Under these laws a husband and wife are allowed to divide their ins come for tax purposes, even though the wife may actually have no income. The plan saves taxpayers in the high income brackets considerable money.

Asks New Housing Controls End June 30

Senator John Sparkman (D. Ala.) wants congress to end new-housing controls June 30, but retain curbs on non-essential building through Oct. 31. i He suggested this as a compromise after Housing Expediter Frank Creedon asked for a few more months of federal construction controls. House-senate conferees on rent control legislation have agreed tentatively to stick by a provision of the house bill which would junk everything except amusement-build-ing controls on June 30.

Truman Veto

He told them that despite rough treatment he’d had from some union leaders last year, he'd always been pro-labor and always would be. One source says draft of veto message is far along. And A.
