Democratic Members in Agreement To Favor Rejected Act Garner Breaks Impasse Measure To Fall Short by $585,000,000 Over Desired Amount WASHINGTON. May 28—(U.E)— The deadlock in the senate finance committee over the administration’s new revenue bill was broken late today when Democratic members of the group agreed to report favorably tomorrow the “compromise" measure rejected by President Roosevelt. The bill would impose a flat 18 per cent tax on corporation income and a 7 per cent supertax on that portion of corporate income which is not distributed In dividends. Experts estimated the senate measure would fall $585,000,000 short over a three-year period of the amount demanded by the president to balance the ordinary budget and finance the bonus and farm programs. j Exemption pp^ioscd An exemption of $1,000 to corporations having annual earnings of $15,000 and less is proposed in the senate bill. Unpaid or refunded AAA processing taxes would be taxed 80 per cent. Observers believed the long impasse in committee was broken only after Vice-President John N. Garner had intervened. He appeared in the senate corridor facing the room in which the revolting Democrats were meeting and sent the head page scurrying inside. A few moments later, Sen. Tom Connally, Democrat, Texas, emerged and was followed by Sen. Josiah Bailey, Democrat, North Carolina. The trio stepped a few paces away from a group of newspaper reporters and soon one of Garner’s fists Meeting for the purpose of electing officers for next year, members of Ball and Chain, honorary managers’ fraternity, will gather today at 10 o’clock in the social hall of Student Union, according to word received from Ed Abbott, president, last night. “Because of excessive absences at meetings, the election has been postponed until tcday,” Abbott stated. “An active program has been scheduled for the coming year, and it is imperative that every member be present to hear the proposed plans.” “Incoming officers will find a real job on their hands. I hope that all members will attend the meeting today and start thing*, right for next year,” Abbott further said.

Wash., May 28—(UP)— A man who gave his name as John Fraser, 40, Vancouver, B.C., late today shot and killed Charles M. Flachs, 44, head of the U.S. immigration bureau here, as immigration officers purepared to search him. In the scuffle which followed Fraser slightly wounded Customs Inspector Leroy J. Pike and then shot himself through the eye. Fraser was taken to a Bellingham hospital, where his condition was reported critical. Canadian authorities immediately began a check to determine Fraser’s true identity. He gave as his address a Vancouver street number which does not exist. It was believed he might be a man named McMullen, who recently participated in the Bank of Nova Scotia robbery at Montreal McMullen’s companion ln the Montreal bank robbery was Red Ryan, notorious bandit, who was slain during an attempted robbery of a liquor store at Sarnia, Ont., last Saturday. WASHINGTON, May 28—(U.P)— The house voted 271 to 41 today to cite Dr. Francis E. Townsend and two of his pension plan aides for contempt, beating down all points of order raised by a small bloc of Townsendites who could not muster enough strength even to force a roll call. By its action the house turned over to U. S. Attorney Leslie C. Garnett of the District of Columbia the task of seeking an indictment against Townsend, Dr. Clinton Wunder, and J. B. Kiefer charging them with contempt of the house for refusing to testify before the special committee investigating the $200-a-month old age pension scheme. The committee chose to recommend trial in the local supreme court rather than in the house so as not to delay adjournment. It was just a week ago today that Townsend read a defiant statement to the committee at the close of two and one-half days’ questioning and stalked out of the hearing room. From Baltimore he kept up a barrage of statements challenging the committee to arrest him, and challenging indictment on the charges made against him during testimony. Finally he ordered his officers. already under subpoena, not to testify. Wunder and Kiefer followed his instructions and thus were cited with their leader. Informed of the house action. Townsend said he understood the over the committee’s treatment of him was somewhat ameliorated by his “amusement” over its failure to recommend contempt charges against Sheridan Downey, his attorney, who also refused to testify. Townsend haid he understood the committee ignored Downey because it feared such action would “elect him governor of California.” “Congress is afraid to bring me before the bar of the house for an open discussion of this notorious case,” Townsend said.

Shock Recorded PASADENA, May 28—(U.P1—The Carnegie seismological laboratory today recorded a “moderately strong” earth shock about 1500 miles distant, at 10:54 a.m. (PST). ‘We Must Awake,’ Benson Congressional Committee Will Make Search of Terror Groups DETROIT, May 28 —(U.P1—The federal government replied today to an invitation to enter the investigation of the night-riding terroristic society, the Black Legion. District Attorney Duncan C. McCrea pressed his search for 12 fugitive legionairea whose arrests may bolster his charge that the spiritual heir of the Ku Klux Klan, accused of responsibility for killings and floggings, Is operating actively in 15 to 18 states, particularly in New York city and Chicago. Moves for congressional investigation of the Black Legion and other “un-American” secret orders gained impetus on capitol hill. Injury Is Made A thorough inquiry into all such “subversive” organizations by a joint congressional committee was proposed in a resolution introduced in the senate today by Sen. Elmer Benson. N-L., Minn. A similar.resolution was offered in the house yesterday by Rep. Samuel Dcksten, R N. Y. Benson urged congress to ace promptly before “we awake to the day when our cherished American liberty will be a thing of ^he past/-His proposal called for appointment of four senators and four representatives with full power to make thorough investigation of secret orders “seeking to establish dictatorship or rule by force and terror in the United States. Several clauses citing an “emergency” demanding action in his resolution included: Revelations Made •Peace officers in many sections of the United States have disclosed the existence and operation of subversive secret orders which have adopted methods of terrorism, night riding, brutality, and even murder to attain un-American ends and purposes. “Apprehended members of such an organization have confessed that recruits were required to take the oath to kill if necessary to enforce its edicts, and that the organization adopted such methods as kidnaping, brutality, mutilation, ritual execution, and murder as means to intimidation. “Such organizations are alleged to have burned houses of worship and sacred insignia, and are suspected of firing and destroying the famous house of worship of Father Charles E. Coughlin, to enforce its declared purpose of extermination of certain religions, races, and creeds in direct violation of the fundamental principles of our government.” Baccalaureate Will Be Held Graduating Exercises Sunday for S.C.

ANGOLA, La, May 28—01— Possemen with nervous trigger fingers prowled the Tunica hills tonight in a search of a fugitive con-vict-killer and fired indiscriminately on every suspicious figure. They shot up each other and killed a farm boy by mistake. A posse and a pack of bloodhounds strung out through the Tunica hills early today, seeking Winifred Lindsley, 23, who, while serving life for murder in Louisiana state prison camp here, murdered the captain of the prison guard and his wife. Hounds Find Trail Bloodhounds frequently picked up Lindsley’s trail across the damp ground and Warden Louis Jones believed his capture was imminent.

This was the testimony Mrs. Anna P. Crookshank and her friends offered yesterday to nullify charges of her divorce-seeking husband, 85-year-old David C.

The Rotary club head is well-known at S.C., having spoken to several student gatherings. Other speakers at the assembly will include Draper, who will present the class gift to the university; Eames Bishop; and Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid. The assembly will be called at 10:30 a.m. and will last for approximately one hour. Marching in caps and gowns in impressive academic procession, the seniors will pass down a lane of ivy-chains held by junior members of the Amazons, to Old College where brief ceremonies will be held. These traditions include the planting of the class tree, the revealing of the class plaque, the man and sophomore presidents, smoking of the peace pipe by the heads of the senior and junior classes, the awarding of the Dog-on button, and the presentation of the mystery bag to the incoming Amazon president. Following these rites seniors will adjourn to Town and Gown, for the “president’s levee,” an annual luncheon given to graduate students by Dr. and Mrs. von KleinSmid. The Dcg-on button tradition, which is being revived after a six-year omission, will be awarded to the senior who can make a professor laugh ths loudest between now and finals. Two other seniors must bs present to vouch for the success of the efforts and must sign an application, describing the means used to evoke the guffaw.
