A credit embargo was voted by congress to day for foreign nations that have defaulted on their obligations to this government and its nationals. By an almost unanimous voice vote, the hoi'se passed the senate-approved Johnson bill barring Amer icans from engaging in financial transactions with foreign countries that fail to pay their debts owed thi.i nation or investors. It was sent to the White house, where President Roosevelt is expect ed to sign it. ' Amendments Barred. Chairman MeReynolds or the for eign affairs committee brought the bill before the house under proced ure barring amendments and requir ing a two-thirds majority vote for passage, saying that when one of the foreign debtors refused to make its payment it asked "what are you going to do about it?" "Here is our chance to reply, 'You can't borrow from our people,' " said McReynolds. "Let's show these for eign countries Ave are going to do something." McReynolds said that recently France sought through a Dutch syn dicate to borrow funds from Amer ican investors but was turned down by the treasury on the ba;;i.3 of this legislation. This bill, he said, would carry out that policy. "Applies to All." Representative Britten (rep., 111.) said he concluded from the language of the bill that if any nation or a political subdivision had defaulted in whole or in part, its terms would apply and served notice he would support it on tl at basis. "I fail to see why England with a surplus of 160 million dollars in her treasury should be excluded be cause of token payments," Britten ::aid. Britten raid that if the state de partment excluded Great Britain and other countries that liad defaulted or made token payments they all would bs inclined to try to pay their debts. Says England Not in Default. McReynolds replied that "I would ?o farther than this if I thought we could get the legislation through at this session." The chairman said that England, through her token payments, was not in default. A provision in the bill, which wcuid have exempted the export and import corporation, set up recently by the president to stimulate business with soviet Russia, was attacked by Representative Fish of New York, ranking republican on the foreign affairs committee, as "a product of the brain trust." He said, however, that he had re ceived today "assurances from a high state department official" that no money would be advanced until the soviet government had agreed on the debt owed by the Kerensky gov ernment amounting to 187 million dollars and about 300 million dollars owed American nationals for prop erty confiscated by the communistic government. BONDS STOLEN IN NEBRASKA Los Angeles. Federal agents in vestigating reports that millions of dollars in liberty bonds and secur ities taken in midwestern bank rob beries had been disposed of here, dis closed that a Los Angeles bank offi cial they sought for questioning had disappeared.

More than $50,000 in liberty bonds, taken in holdups in which machine gun gangs participated in Nebraska and Kan sas, have been recovered here. E. II. Utley, assistant district attorney, said he believed some of the bonds were the loot cf the "Pretty Boy" Floyd gang, which di;j;c"cd of the bonds thru "fences" at a great dis ccunt. Four men, including an at torney, are under indictment here charged with trafficking in stolen bonds. Senate Refuses to Boost Normal Income Tax Rate UEGES CAUSE OF TEACIIER3 Columbus, O. Speaking before an audience that packed Memorial hall to the doors, Mrs. Franklin 1). Roose velt pleaded for the construction of simple school houses and for conser vation of public money for payment of salaries to teachers, and the pur chase of books and other equipment. Her address, delivered extempor aneously, was the feature of the day at the national citizens' conference on the crisis in education. "We ouhgt to spend more on the education of our teachers," she said. "We are in a period of change in this country. It is the teacher who must under stand that change and interpret it so as to be useful to the future of our country. What we need now is the ability to co-operato with each other . . .for the good of the whole nation." FILES FOR RE-ELECTION This morning County Clerk George R. Sayles hied his name tor re-nomination for his present office ana which will be subject to the wishes of the voters at the republican pri mary.

Keck having filed several days ago for the came position on this ticket. Ths many friendi'of Mr. Sayles over the county will be interested In learning that he lias decided to again enter the race. Remain at 4 Percent Instead of 6 as Proposed Thompson, Norris Vote for Proposal. Washington. By a margin of eleven votes the senate retained in the revenue bill the more moderate income and surtax schedules pro posed by its finance committee in stead of a proposal that would have restored wartime levies to li3lp pay for economic recovery. The high tax advocates mustered thirty-six votes for a substitute schedule by Senator LaFollette, Wisconsin, calling for an increase in the normal income tax from 4 to G percent and surtaxes I ranging from G to 71 percent. There were forty-seven votes to keep in the bill the committee rates that were! tentatively approved Wednesday.! This settled the chief controversy! over the bill and leaders expected its passage before the week end reeves. The committee rales provide a flat normal tax of 4 percent on all net income instead of the present 4 per cent on the first ? 4,000 and S per cent on all over that. They also hx the surtaxes at 5 percent on that portion of the income between $4,000 and $G,000 and graduate them up ward thru twenty-nine brackets to fifty-nine percent on all over a mil- i lion. The rates approved by the house are a flat normal tax of 4 percent and surtaxes ranging from 4 to 59 percent. The differences in the sur tax schedule will thus have to be threshed out in conference. Twenty- four democrats, eleven republicans,! and the farmer-laboritc, Shipstead j voted for the LaFollette schedule. Twenty-nine democrats and eighteen! FOR SALE KANSAN AGAINST PROJECT Washington. Representative Harold McGugin (r., Kas.) criticized various public works expenditures and asserted that Public Works Ad ministrator Ickes was using part of the federal work funds "to carry out some of his long cherished ideas of governmental ownership of public utilities." McGugin used as an example the Loup River, Neb., hydroelectric pro ject, which he averted would aboliih the Nebraska coal market for Kansas miners. "There are now from nine to eleven cars of coal daily going into Nebraska from Kansas to generate power in steam plants" said McGu gin, charging that instead of aiding employment, many of the public I works projects were depriving work ers of jobs. Several good milk cows. Lee A. Roland, 1'2 mile west of La Platte. m29-4tw republicans answered "no." Th? com mittee schedule would allow the same exemptions for surtax income as now are authorized for normal tax purposes. The effect of this would be to start the surtax at about $6,500 for single men because of the $2,500 and S 1,000 exemptions. Senators Norri3 and Dill, Wash ington, supported the LaFollette rates, while Chairman Harrison of the committee spoke against them. Norris said the LaFollete schedule would have hurt no one. Dill described the higher rates as "very moderate." "It is unthinkable that any set of men should be per mitted to put millions into their Dockets while others do not have enough to feed themselves," he asserted.
