This Information was released Salurday by Representative J. S. Steele of Kim j bail, champion of the exemption bill i killed in the house Friday. Stnce the tax is paid by the im ' porter, any Injunction suit brought must be h; him or if he refuses to pay then he must defend.

The sena'c has a hill which is a duplicate of H. R. 131, exemption bin killed by tbe house. Mr. Steele and his colleagues favoring exemption pre ready to concede that the issue apparently is settled insofar as con cerns this 'legislative session. If the hi use kills its own. presumably it will repeal on the senate bill If the latter ever gets out of committee and through the senate, which is serious ly doubted. Nothing Definite Mr. Steele was not definite as to who will tiring or defend a suit, al though admitting that it must be roe importer or dealer actually pay ?nr the tax. The four-cent gas tax bill passed in 1929 does not carry th :. ing clause providing that if part f the bill 5s declared unconstitution al the rest of it shall remain in full force and effect. It therefore is prob able that if the assault is on con Btltutlonal grounds and sustained on ruch grounds, if any part of the law down, all parts will fall togeth-j er. Opponents of exemption have ex preesed interest in ascertaining what rasoline concern may star' or defend IS suit, it lias been tne uricterstano- I ing I rt,e that importers, and pr 't icularly larger companies, a-e opposed to ' : exemption on the theory that the the con- - rejiter the rood roads mileage. mere gasoline will he sold the umer. Another question raised has i to do with the probable bond require-, ! ment against any inroorte starting I unit and a third consideration has t" do with whether or not and how long ! such proposed litigat ion may tie up the gas tax fund. If a legal battle j were carried thru the district court, the state supreme court and on to the ' supreme coSnrt of the T'nited States, j it is conceded that such tie-up, if my. might be prolonged over an extensive : period. WAGNER CONTEMNS A VETO New York Ser.ator Wagner, sup plementing his brief comment on President Hoover's veto of his unem ployment plan, said "the preeidenl has failed every man who is out pounding tbe pavements in search of work." He condemned President Hoover's objections to the plan and declared the president alone opposed the meusure. with "for three year all labor organizations in the coun try have been enthusiastically and zealously advocating." He said the bill was along lines advocated by Mr Hoover in 1921. "The Signing of the bill would have brought into service a bigger, better and more amply financed or ganization for both the wage earner and employer. The nresident ha made that impossible."

A nation-wide program for a bet- ; te observance of Mothers Day. May 10th. to help dependent mothers and needy children has been launched by Mis. Franklin I). Roosevelt, wife of the Governor and a leader of wel fate workers in Nee York State. It will be sponsored by The Golden Rule Foundation with headquarters at GO East 42nd Street, Sew York. N. Y. A national committee to help raise a Golden Rule Mothers Fund !has been announced by Mis. Roose velt. A New York State committee jhas also been formed and it is ex pected that similar committees Will be named in every state to promote a Golden Rule observance of Mothers Day. I In view of the widespread suffer ing this winter suffering that has fallen hardest on the mothers and their children Mrs. Roosevelt, hon orary chairman of the national oom mittee. said: "I ask your help to enlarge the observance of Mothers Day so that people may think not 'only of their own mothers but of other mothers who are less fortun ately situated. It would also be a fine thing to aid the mothers who are in need today in the name of mothers who have gone. Those who have gone, 1 am sure would like to hve us give in their name for the aid of the motheis who are in need now. 1 think that all of us who ate mothers would be pleased that what is done is not Just for us personally, but in honor of all mothers. Just af this time more appeals than ever b -fOre are coming in, and the aid is much needed." "My appeal is not only to New York City and State, but. as honor ary chairman of the National Com mittee Gold Rule Mothers Day fund, to the country at large," Mrs. Roose velt declared. Governor Roosevelt, in a state statement issued at Albany to Charles V, Vickrey, president of the Golden Rule Foundation, said: "You arc starting a movement that will light en the load and brighten the live ol myriads' of weary women and depend- i: children." One of the facts emphasized by the foundation is that one of the true i tributes that can be paid to the mem ory of one's mother is to pass on to other less fortunate women and chil dren something of the ministry thai was received from her. "The educa tion and cultural values of Hatters Day observance should be consider at least as equal in Importance to any financial returns," the Foundation announced. The Foundation particularly sut gests that those whose mothers si" not living remember and honor th' by sharing their prosperity with the less fortunate mothers who are Herat in need.
