Chief of Naval Operations Admiral
D. Leahy and Deputy Chief of Staff
Gen. George C. Marshall. They testi
fied in favor of the resolution before
the committee last week.
The resolution for building war
ships for South American nations
would allow the United States to
compete on a favorable basis with
European countries. Official figures
show that at present more than 75
per cent of Latin American warships
have been purchased in Europe.
Welles informed the committee last
week that the administration desires
enactment of the resolution to im
prove and strengthen inter-American
solidarity. He said such legislation
would increase employment In this
country.
War and navy department officials
said enactment would not slow down
the United States' vast rearmament
program since no immediate large
orders from Latin American govern
ments are anticipated, particularly
for warships. On the other hand, it
was said, orders for aircraft and
other implements of war would tend
to increase this country's productive
capacity.

majority to -"tax . the profits -out of
war." The measure, introduced by a
group headed by Sens. Gerald P. Nye,
R N. D., and Homer T. Bone, D.,
Wash., is designed to "discourage
war profiteering" and "to keep demo
cracy alive."
A similar bill was introduced in
the house",' where it was sent to the
ways and means committee.
The anti-profiteering bill would,
once the United States enters into
war, impose heavy surtaxes on all
personal and corporation incomes on
a graduated scale. Persons or firms
receiving net incomes of 52,000
would pay a four per cent tax, while
incomes as high as $10,000,000
would be taxed 98.9 per dent.
Bone said the treasury has in
formed him that had such a law
existed during the World war the
United States would have emerged
with no deficit. Financiers, however,
contend that it would interfere seri
ously with the financing of a major
war.

: DRIVES TRUCK ON RAILROAD
Trom Tuesday's Dally
Last' night Officer Frank Boetel
was called to the west part of the
city where a man badly intoxicated
was reported in difficulties with his
truck near the Missouri Pacific sta
tion. The officer, with Howard
Mrasek, hurried out to the scene of
action.
It was found that the man had
driven his truck load of eleven cattle
down the track south from the sta
tion to near the overpass at Locust
street and where the truck had stall
ed on the track. The man who was
badly intoxicated, had, when the
truck became stuck, let the cattle out
and they were roaming over that part
of the city. The truck was finally
gotten off the track and left near
the section house while the man was
brought on down to rest in the coun
ty Jail.
The man had been seen down in
the business section of the city earlier
in the evening and apparently had
been returning home from Omaha
with the cattle
ttle. Apparently he had
