Figure for DraftMilitary Group Votes to

Lim it to 9 0 0 ,0 0 0 liumber of Men to Be

^Given Training in Any Period During Peace Tim e Under Measure.W'ashington, Aug, 27.—

(AP)—Quickly lining up with the Senate, the House Military Committee voted today to limit to 9 0 b ^ 0 the number of men who could be given military training at any one period during peace time under the Burke-Wadsworth conscription bill. Chairman May (D., Ky.), announced that the vote was “pretty one-sided.” He predicted that the committee would approve the entire draft legislation later in the day.

The commlttei* also inserted In th e d ra ft hill the reem ploym ent provl/iiotm of leglalatlon au thorizing a year’s tra in ing for N ational G uardsm en. These sections \^ould call on em ployers to re instate tra inees upon satisfac to ry completion of their y ear's service and, it ro u r t action w ere needed to g e t Jobs back, would authorize d is tric t a tto rneys to represent the men.

ptised peacetime m ilitary conscription today as a "w aste '' of $1,000.- 000,000 annually while advocates confidently predicted final Senate passage tonight.

Senator B urks (D., Neb.), coau th o r of the selective tra in ing bill, told reporters, "we'll pass th is before we quit tonight." and C hairm an Sheppard (D., T ex.), of the S enate M ilitary Com m ittee supported the forecast.

Johnson, one of the few m em b ers of th e M ilitary C om m ittee opposed to the B urke-W adsw orth bill, to ld the Senate:

. "W e hate Mr. H itler, bu t we are abou t to strike our precious liberty a death blctw by adopting his P russian Ideology of conscription. I can See the sm irk on his cold expressionless face as the I ’nlted S ta te s stabs democracy in the back because of him."

TH UR8.t T LO VE YOU AGAIN* PLUS ‘GOLDEN GLOVES’

Washington, Aug. 27.—(A)— A | combination excess profits tax and I amortization bill—long urged as essential (or accelerating defense | preparations—was reported to the | House today with the unanimous : approval of Its Ways and Meaps Committee.

After a protracted deadlock over some of the measure's provlalons, the committee reached agreement ate yesterday, and leaders were opeful that the House would pass

bill before the end of the week. Main Provisions

The proposed bill contain* these main provisions;

1— It would-impose on corporations an excest profits tax or from 20 to 60 per cent, with the object of preventing "war millionaires;"

2— It would permit defen.se industries to deduct from taxable income and profits over a five year period the full coat of expansloh necessary to handle defense orders;

S—It would suspend the present 7 and 8 per cent limitation imposed on the profits a manufacturer can make on government orders for aircraft and warahlps.

Unofficial estimates placed the 1940 yield from the excess profits levy at about $300,000,000 that would have been realized under the original tax schedules proposed before the bill was revised.

Urged By Boose\-^t President Roosevelt has t>een

urging excess profits leRislation as necessary and quick congressional approval was a.sked by Defense Commissioner William 3. Knudsen. Knudsen declared that letting of defense contracts had been .retarded because manufacturers first wanted tax credits for their plant expansions and they also desired to know how much excess profits tax '.hey would have to pay.

Debate on the measure is scheduled to start Thursday, with passage expected by Friday night.

The final draft Incorporated many concessions to both Democratic and Republican Committee members who had complained that the original tax schedule recommended by a aub-commlttee would fall hardest on those least able to pay.

The full committee, therefore, revamped the bill to Increase the tax on high earning corporations and to lower it from low earning companies.

Two Method* Of t'omputallon Two methods of excess tax com

putation were provided.Under the "average eamlnga"

method, a corporation's profits would be "excess" and taxable if they exceeded the average of its earning# for the four years, 1936 to 1939, Inclusive.

Under tha "invested capital" method, a firm would be allowed from a minimum credit of 7 per cent to a maximum of 10 per cent on its Invested capital during the 1936-1939 base years, depending on the percentage of eamlnga of the company on its invested capital during those years.

Because high earning corporations were expected to elect the "average eamlnga" method of computing their tax, the range of rates for that method were fixed at from 25 to .’M) per cent.

A 20 to 45 per cent range was provided for corporations using the "invested capital" method, which waa designed for the less prosperous concerns.

To Increase Inoome Rate In addition to this excese profits

tax differential, the committee voted to Increase the normal .income tax rate for corporations using the average earnings method from the present 20.9 per cent to 25 per .cent,.

In another move to shift the tax burden away. from corporations earning less than 10 per cent on their invested capit.-j), the formula was modified to Increase their untaxed credl^.

These alterations followed nearly a week of controversy among committee members over alleged inequities in the sub-committee's plan.' Flat $5,000 Exemption

As recommended by the sub- pmmittee, however, all corpora-

I would be allowed a fiat $5,(KM) l^emption, a provision expected to remove from the bill's range some 400,000-odd Httle concerns.

The 7 to 10 per cent sliding scale of credit under the Invested capital method of tax computation would work as follows :

A credit amounting to 10 per cent of a corporation's invested capital would be allowed If the corporation earned 10 per cent or more on It* Investment during the' 1936-1939 base period.’

A concern which earned 9 per cent during the base period would be allowed a 9 per cent credit and ao on down to an absolute njlnl- mum of 7 per cent on the first $500,000 ot invested capital, and 5 per cent on the remainder of Invested capital.

Plan (or Yenng Firms Oorporations. organized since

1888 and before Jan. l', 1040, would be allowed to count as their eam-

' Inga (or the baae years before their organization amounts equal to 10 per cent of the first $500,000 of Invested capital and 8 per cent of the remainder.

Thooe corporations formed since Jon. 1, 1940, would obtain’'A’credU

4 of 10 per cent on the first $S0(r;< 000 o f Inveated capital and 8 per

' cent on the remainder.Corporatlona with deficits dur

Pomona, Calif., Aug. 27,— UP)—The Chamber of (Commerce wanted to know whether ThankeglvUig would be a week earlier again this year, so Secretary Edward B. Kennedy wrote to President RooMvelt.

He explained that Pomona merchants were planning ahead for their annual “Christmas preview" of merchan-i • dUie.

The president's secretary, Stephen Eariy, replied "the President proposed to designate Thursday, Nov. • 21, as Thanksgiving Day this year.”

So the Ponr.ona preview will be held on "old-style 'Thanksgiving Day," Nov. 28.

SUlatra, RumanU, Aug. 27—(P) —Roads leadlPg out of southern Dobruja are Iklogged with peasant caravans and the bank of the Danube 1s Jammed with refugees seeking to leave districts they expect soon to be occupied by the Bulgarian Army.

About 150,000 Rumanians live In this borderland which their government took from Bulgaria In the second Balkan was 27 years ago and now has agreed tentatively to relinquish.

Ignorant of Exact StatusIgnorant of the exact status of

negotiations between the two countries, peasants and townsfolk trudge shoulder to shoulder toward the "old kingdom." They have received official permlsaion to carry with them grain, furniture, clothing and anything else they want to save.

"I guess it has to be," a Sllistra shopkeeper said.

"They call It the new order In Europe, but It ‘is hard to pull yourself up by the roots from the place in which you have lived happily for so many years.

"We are Rumanians, however, and we wish to continue to live under the Rumanian flag."

Report BsSidlt Raids Both Rumania and Bulgaria

hope for the propo.sed transfer of territory to proceed smoothly but already refugees are reporting bandit raids in small villages resulting In deaths and pillaging.

Six Rumanian gendarmes were reported slain at one place and their bodies hung from trees.

In the peasant caravans the lucky migrants have loaded their possessions on horsedrawn carts— but oxen, mules, water buffalo, sheep dogs and even men themselves pull other conveyances.

The crowd grows larger on the southern, or Dobrujan, shore of the Danube.

There are doctors with their cases of instruments, farmers with their sacks of spring wheat, shopkeepers with cans, bottles and packing cases.

All await a chance to cross the river in rowboats, the owners of which are making a small fortune out of the pathetic traffic.
